THE CRYSTAL CAVE [2e]
Chihuahua, Mexico. April, 2000. Miners excavating 1,000 feet below the mineral-rich town of Naica drill through a cave wall and make a stunning discovery: a glittering cavern full of giant crystals that are half a million years old.

“The Cuevas des Cristales or the Crystal Cave of Northern Mexico is a very unique site. And we’re talking crystals as big around as a car that stretched from the floor to the ceiling of the cavern. It’s a remarkable thing to see.” – Logan Hawkes (Publisher, The Mexico Less Traveled), |

“The incredible Cave of the Crystals in Mexico was just accidentally found, and the discoverers were completely astounded with these giant gypsum crystals. It’s fantastic and reminds a person of the Fortress of Solitude of Superman, where all this information is encoded into these giant crystals.” – David Childress (Author, Technology of the Gods) |

“Now, the significance of this is extremely important to the indigenous people of Northern Mexico in fact, all of Mesoamerica in that the crystals themselves were considered sacred. They vibrated. And they believed there was also some properties involved in crystals that would provide them a way to communicate with the gods.” – Logan Hawkes (Publisher, The Mexico Less Traveled), |

“Many ancient myths tell us that there are magical apparatus that are made out of rock or stone or crystal.” – Wm. Michael Mott (Author, Caverns, Cauldrons, & Concealed Creatures, 3rd Ed.) |
|
“If we look at the properties of many of the caverns and caves, we see that there’s usually some type of lining of crystal or quartz, and we know that crystal has a vast ability to store information. Maybe some of these caves are actually storing information and that ancient people who meditate in caverns are tapping into this knowledge.” – Jason Martell |
Might caves that are rich in quartz or crystal really possess some special power that our ancestors were aware of? Ancient Astronaut Theorists point out that the scientists today are discovering that crystals do, in fact, have very unique properties.

“Quartz and other crystalline structures oscillate on incredibly well-defined frequencies when you hit them mechanically, and they can be activated electrically through an effect known as the piezoelectric effect. So, you can put quartz in a watch and use it as a very accurate timekeeping device. So, quartz could be used in conducting or communicating certain signals.” – Michael Dennin, Ph.D. |
In the Silicon Valley of California, quartz is used to manufacture the small integrated circuits found in computers because of its strong semiconducting properties. Computer chips are also made with a form of the mineral quartzite, which is a highly-condensed form of quartz. Today, computer engineers are working on how to physically manipulate crystals so that digital data can be stored inside them forever. The media has dubbed these hard drives of the future “Superman memory crystals.”

“So, Superman is one of our superheroes who came from outer space. He came from the planet Krypton. It was in the process of being destroyed, so his parents saved him and sent him in a spaceship to our planet. One of the interesting things in the Superman story is that his father was able to program a crystal that traveled with him that he was able to use to construct the Fortress of Solitude. And it was basically a crystal structure, essentially a cave, where he could both get away from things and he could use the crystals in there to get information. So, one of the things that’s interesting in the Fortress of Solitude is the way that the quartz technology, or the crystal technology, seems to be underlying everything. And so a future that we’re looking at is using light in computing. You have to figure out ways to trap light and to store it, basically to create bits on and off and have the light last long enough that the signal stays there and the memory is stored.” – Michael Dennin, Ph.D. |
Was the power of crystals something the ancients not only knew about but utilized by building structures that would harness and transmit it?

“A lot of the pyramids had either granite or some type of crystal-lined surface. For instance, Giza, those great pyramids were topped with an obelisk made of shiny granite crystal. And when we look at an obelisk, it very much resembles some type of power rod, maybe a Tesla coil. Ancient times, the obelisk was always a symbol of power. Maybe this wasn’t just emotional power but actual physical power that was being harnessed by these objects.” – Jason Martell |
|
“Crystals are transformers. They hold energy. And, indeed, caves are thought of as “hot spots,” where you have Earth energy emerging from the planet.” – William Henry (Author / Investigative Mythologist), |
If scientists today are looking into the technological uses for crystal, is it possible that there are extraterrestrial civilizations that have already mastered this technology? Ancient Astronaut Theorists say yes and that the mineral properties found inside caves have enabled some of the world’s most astounding miracles.
