“Textiles

Spinning is the practice of combining a small set of threads to achieve a long and continuous thread with the use of an instrument called a spindle. The zone is an instrument made of a small wand that usually gets thinner at both ends; that was used alongside a tortera or piruro. The spindle is inserted into the bottom to make a counterweight. It starts spinning, taking the rueca (where the fiber was set to be spun). Fibers that are laid down in the zone are quickly turned between the thumb and index fingers and twisted to interlock the fibers, creating a long thread. After the desired lengths of threads are attained, the threads are intersected and woven in various combinations to make fabrics.

The Chimú embellished their fabrics with brocades, embroidery, fabrics doubles, and painted fabrics. Sometimes textiles were adorned with feathers and gold or silver plates. Tropical feathers used in such textiles are evidence of long-distance trade.[18] Colored dyes were created from plants containing tannin, mole, or walnut; and minerals, such as clay, ferruginosa, or mordant aluminum; as well as from animals, such as cochineal. The garments were made of the wool of four animals: the guanaco, llama, alpaca, and vicuna. The people also used varieties of cotton, that grows naturally in seven different colors. The clothing consisted of the Chimú loincloth, sleeveless shirts with or without fringes, small ponchos, and tunics.

The majority of Chimú textiles were made from alpaca wool and cotton. Judging from the uniform spin direction, degree of the twist, and colors of the threads, it is likely that all of the fibers were pre-spun and imported from a single location.

Ceramics

The civilisation is kknown for its exquisite and intricate metalworking, one of the most advanced of the pre-Columbian era. Chimú ceramics were crafted for two functions: containers for daily domestic use and those made for ceremonial use for offerings at burials. Domestic pottery was developed without higher finishing, while funeral ceramics show more aesthetic refinement.

The main features of Chimú ceramics were small sculptures, and manufacturing molded and shaped pottery for ceremonial or daily use. Ceramics were usually stained black, although there are some variations. Lighter ceramics were also produced in smaller quantities. The characteristic brightness was obtained by rubbing with a rock that previously had been polished. Many animals, fruits, characters, and mystical entities have been represented pictorially on Chimú ceramics. Archaeological evidence suggest that Chimor grew out of the remnants of the Moche, as early Chimú pottery had some resemblance to that of the Moche. Their ceramics are all black, and their work in precious metals is very detailed and intricate.”

>> I’m going to talk a bit some chimu pottery piece that caught my attention:

1 – It’s a representation of 2 fishermen in their “boats” while one can be like a tree log, the second one is shaped like a “fish”. Some in the alternative history think the “fish” boat is more than a “simple” boat but some type of “sophisticated” boat or even a submarine. It may be or it may be not. It’s still inconclusive but I would also like to remind anons of how the Saqqara bird was shaped (p. 100) and on the Helicopter glyph (pages 93-95) there are many “designs” there, including what looks like a modern day submarine. Also in the animation cartoon called the Mysterious cities of Gold (p. 336), the Condor “plane” was represented with the shape of a bird. And the shape of the bird also involves the birds of prey individual flying gears we’ve been seeing in this thread. What I’m saying is that we shouldn’t rule out the possibility of “transportation means” being shaped/designed like animals, either because they belonged from a lost civilization or for artistic zoological inspiration.

2 – The design on this piece of pottery caught my attention since it looks like a Griffin: Body of a feline and head of an eagle, not to forget the wings. We’ve been seeing mystical and strange animals for some time in many cultures/civilizations in this thread, but it’s in Ancient Egypt that we saw a Griffin on the 2 dogs palette page 120. In Mesoamerica mysterious, mystical animals were mentioned in the texts many times as we went through the civilizations there, but unfortunetly I didn’t get to see much pictures of them apart the Feathered Serpent, and even in the description of these incredible animals were vague, blurry. I had the impression back then even archaeologists, schollars and experts didn’t know what they are, as in they were unable to make heads or tails of what they were seeing. It’s sometimes hard to see clearly when the designs are intricate and complex.

3 – The last piece that caught my attention is a pottery with a design on it that is similar to the “Staff-god” (p.359) we saw in Norte Chico. I’m saying similar but not identical: he is weaing a head piece which seems to have feathers as well, but what is different about it is the “weapons” he is holding in both hands. The lower part of the weapon = the handle seems to be close to that of the Staff-god of Norte Chico, but the upper part is like a trident or should I say a fork.

For me, it felt like a Deja-vue. So I went to check it out and I found this “Anunnaki” relief. Look closely anons, we have what is close to a Griffin being hunted down by a hunter who is holding same type of “forked” weapons, in both hands, but the two ends of the weapons are “forked” and not just the upper part of it like what we have in this Chimu pottery. Can someone explain to me how is this possible? How are the weapons of the Chimu and the Anunnaki similar, while they are thousands of km afar and thousands of years apart? If we are following geography and chronology we will say it’s impossible. But, if we omit those and just concetrate on the object itself, we can logically deduce both weapons came from the same source = origin. And here, a lot of people will jump to the conclusion that it’s from the Aliens. Which is turn is going to make me wince. I’m sorry, but this is a hard thing for me and until now nothing I’ve seen or read managed to convince me of the “Aliens” explanation, the way the alternative history puts it, with the feline looking ones and the reptiles and the greys. For me, it’s obvious, the origines come from a lost forgotten civilization that I’ve been trying to track, find the clues and reconstruct in this thread.

So here, the wheel gears of my head start to work overtime because when I think of Mesopotamia, I personally cannot help myself but see the similarities with Ancient Egypt. This is when I took a closer look at the deities in Ancient Egypt to see what they are holding. MOST, not all, are holding ONE staff. There are similarities between the Ancient Egyptian staffs and what the Staff-god is holding. I always assumed this is a reigning type of staff in Ancient Egypt, like a scepter, it never occurred to me the possibility of it being also a WEAPON. I’m not saying it is for sure, I’m just saying there are similarities and it’s possible. This needs further digging and study.
