Ancient footprints buried for thousands of years are revealing their true date of creation thousands of years earlier than we thought and shaking up the conventional timeline. Could this validate Hopi stories of ancient Ant Men?

White Sands National Park in New Mexico today, is mostly chalky white desert and sand dunes, but thousands of years ago this was a temperate zone centered around the massive Lake Otero filled with flourishing plants, wildlife, and now we can confirm, humans. Ancient footprints originally discovered in 2009 have been radiocarbon dated to be from 21,000-23,000 years ago. Previous estimates of human habitation in this area were 13,000-16,000 years ago.

Ancient stone tools, footprints, and rock layers are difficult, if not impossible, to date. But scientists have found seeds from ancient spiral seed grass, mingled with some footprints. Those seeds were able to be carbon dated, proving humans were in the area and thriving thousands of years earlier than previously thought.

Jack Cary, researcher and author of “Paranormal Planet” commented on the significance of this discovery. “This is a huge point to shove back human migration. That means that you’re going to have to rewrite everything that’s associated in our science related to human migration. That is a huge problem for our anthropologists and for accepted science as a whole,” Cary said. “As investigators into ancient mysteries, this is one of the biggest things that we could ever discover because now we have absolute, inarguable proof that humans were there at this exact period of time.”

Why are investigators of ancient mysteries so excited about this find?

“This is the same area, the same place, and the same time that the Hopi Indians claimed that the so-called Ant People took them underground during a massive global cataclysm because the world basically caught fire according to their ancient, historical oral traditions. And this same event, strangely enough, can be found in the Book of Enoch when he describes a cometary impact. All of this would date back to around the same time period,” Cary said.

“And we have to remember that in Hopi language ‘Anu’ means ‘Ant’ and ‘Naki’ means ‘Friend,’ so the word Annunaki to the Hopi means ‘Ant Friends.’ And it was these ‘Ant Friends’ who twice took them underground, the second being when the last Ice Age actually melted creating a global flood that has been recorded in ancient histories worldwide. Now we have radiocarbon dated proof that there was in fact, human habitation in the right place, at the right time to make those oral histories viable.”

What do we know about the area where the footprints were found?

“Along with these human footprints, they’ve also discovered quite a bit of Ice Age megafauna in the form of footprints, in the form of mammoth prints, sabertooth cat, and quite a few other animals dating to that same time period. So this was an area for these people with readily available and numerous food sources,” Cary said. “There was plenty of water available and this appears to be a temperate climate zone. For many researchers into the ancient mysteries, they will tell you that Ice Ages are cyclical—that is one of the great secrets of the mystery schools—and that was encoded in a lot of ancient cultures, and here we have an example of a major ice age occurring and people still being able to survive in the southwestern part of the United States. That’s valuable information.”

How does this finding affect what we thought we knew about the past? And how will it impact the study of archeology in the future?

“It’s going to change a lot of the encrusted dogma that’s in our established circles of academia. They’re going to have to accept the fact that this migration took place, at this point, they cannot argue against it, and therefore they’re going to have to rewrite a large portion of what they believed to be true. And it’s in these gaps that we as investigators into ancient mysteries believe that we have the information to fill in,” Cary said.
