Palamedes and Anthonie Palamedez

Unknown geniuses

I know that Palamedes Palamedesz (1606-1638) (1) is not a very usual name. But the thing is that this man was the genius as a painter. He was the brother of another well-known Dutch painter, and those men painted very high-class paintings. And the thing is that I sometimes wonder, why everybody knows about the name Vincent Van Gogh, but the name of Palamedez brothers is not so well-known. Palamedes died at the age of 32, and that means that he might be somehow handicapped. 

There is a strange detail in this painting, which is painted by the English born Dutch artist, whose name is quite difficult to write, but the name you will find from the annex one, and the thing that makes that person so interesting is his strange name. Exactly the thing, what makes this artist very interesting is that he was a brother of another well-known Dutch painter Anthonie Palamedez(1601-1978) (2), and you might guess how difficult it is to separate those people from together. 

They were both golden age dutch painters, and they are made fascinating paintings. And the question is, why the other of brothers have this kind of extraordinary name? The thing in this painting that portraits the cavalry fight is that there seems to be a strange character, what is painted like a cloud. That character seems like some kind of muscleman, who would rub the knucklebones together. 

Strange "muscleman" in clouds

This painting is really interesting because it is so well done. But the artist Palamedes Palamedesz is a very interesting person, he has painted many paintings, and the thing, what makes those paintings interesting is that he has painted some cavalry fight scenes, and in those scenes is something very interesting. Behind the men is a cloud character, which seems a little bit extraordinary. 

And sometimes I have thought that those paintings are meant to portrait something else, but then the artist has been covered that thing by using the cloud formation. And the question is, what was the thing, what suppose in the place of that character? Maybe there was something, that was politically incorrect, and the painter would remove things, that that person planned to make during the painting process. And the thing is that there are many secrets, what is hidden in paintings, and many mysteries are waiting for the finder. This kind of thing makes the work of the researcher interesting and fascinating.

The short tale of the Evolution

The short tale of the Evolution

We are always told that the human being is on the top of Evolution, and the evolution road to for our species has been very long.  This might be true, but then we have forgotten something, what might seem meanless, but if we are looking at that thing carefully, we are facing, that we are not only species on the Earth what has been existed from the beginning of the Cambrian period. Or actually, we are not being existed from that far, but we are advanced from the animals and cells, what has been lived in the Cambrian ocean far in the past.

This is a really impressive performance, that we have faced advantage from the single-cell organism to the "master of nature", and even we are masters of nature, we are still addicted to our planet. The advancing means that we have made many things, which are not so positive, even they are advanced. This is the thing what we should realize when we are using our brains. Everything that we have done is not positive, and until now people have not cared a thing about nature or some rain forests.

In the early 20th century the only way how people should live was the European lifestyle and also the American way to live is one version of the European way of life, even we don't want to look at that thing that way. But let's go back to evolution, and what we have forgotten. The major thing, what we don't mention is that vegetables like trees have also advanced from the Cambrian ocean, where the first bacteria tried to survive in the chemical environment, what was a little bit different than modern atmosphere and oceans.

The evolution for those trees, what we see on our yard is so long as the evolution of human being. That thing is what we should remember when we are thinking about Evolution. When we are thinking about the first organisms on the Earth, we must understand something, the oxygen was poison for those organisms. This thing caused the first mass destruction of the organisms on the Earth. The oxygen or sharper to say, the free oxygen burned those organisms.

When we are transforming this thing to the cosmo-biology, we must realize that the chemical environment of the organisms, what would live another planet or moon would have a different kind of chemical environment, then we have on Earth. That means that the chemical environment on Earth might be so hostile for those organisms as their environment would be for organisms, what are living on Eart.

And then we are forgetting that there are so-called archean bacteria, what is living in conditions, where the every each organism would die in seconds. Those bacteria have been located in nuclear waste, volcanic eruption holes, and geysers. If we are thinking about the cells, what might live on the very hot planets, they would not have mitochondria at all.

Those organisms can get their energy from the volcanic thermal. Mitochondria, what is giving energy for every each eukaryotic cell on this planet is interesting cell organ, what is one kind of virus or Rickettsia, what is living in the cells. That cell organ needs cells for living, but they are independent organisms, what has own genomes, and researching those genomes, we might get information, what kind of organisms lived on our planet in the Cambrian period.

The chemical environment in the cell is something, what has been researched for finding out, what kind of place was the ocean, where the first organisms have been formed. And when the mitochondria are connected to those cells the cells could move away from the influence of the volcanic spring, because that thing needs the ability to create energy for the chemical reactions in the cell independently.

Is the story of Atlantis only the ancient SciFi tale? And could it be possible that Plato's home language other than Greek?

Is the story of Atlantis only the ancient SciFi tale? And could it be possible that Plato's home language other than Greek?

Is so-called "real philosopher" person, who has lived in ancient Greece, and write nice texts about the people, who have sitting in the cave all their lives. When we are thinking the difference of the book writer philosopher, we must realize, that the knowledge and way to get information is a little bit different in the modern life than in the time of Plato.

And that makes philosopher of the modern time a little bit different than some ancient Greek master, whose writings and stories would repeat again and again through the millenniums. Maybe some modern philosophers would be found the millenniums later when their texts would be found from some database of the Internet. Maybe that thing happens, when the data of the Internet would transfer to quantum computers.

When we are thinking about persons like Plato and Aristotle, we must realize that would it be possible that those persons were so-called "ordinary storytellers" in their lifetime. If we would think writings, what are consist of things like Atlantean story, we might think that Plato wrote the SciFi novel of the city, which was very powerful and advancing. But what sunk in the waves.

We don't know did Plato knew some words, what are in common use in modern language. And one of those words is "memory". Is it possible that Plato just didn't know that word, because he didn't have school-type education? Maybe he replaced the word "memory" by using the word "water". And "city, what lost below the waves" would just mean "forgotten city". This thing would tell one thing, what we have ever thought before, and that thing is that was the home language of that philosopher some other than Greek? But this is only the hypothesis about the strange words.

Maybe the idea of that story was given to Plato the destruction of the lost culture of Crete. The ruins of that civilization are in the coastline of the Crete, what might mean that the Minoan culture would just come to that island when the eruption of Santorini or some other volcano just whip that culture away.

The thing is that the eruption of Santorini Island would destroy even the large city, and then Plato used that happening as the source when he created a story of Atlantis. And in some stories, some other storyteller has created topics that the spirits of ancient Atlanteans would still live in the caves of the sunken city.

But Plato didn't mention, where the Atlantis was sunken and was that thing where the city was lost water, volcanic ash or lava? I don't know what kind of education was in the time of Plato, but sometimes I have wondered, was he knew the things like volcanic ash or lava? Today many people see those things on the television or the internet, and we all know what those things are. But did Plato knew those words?

Or was he even see the erupting volcano in his life? If he traveled around the Mediterranean as he claimed, there is a possibility, that he has ever seen a single eruption or probably he didn't know the words like volcanic action. There is also the possibility to think that Plato just didn't know the words like lava. Or maybe somebody else has been written some of the texts, what is believed to made by Plato.

There is a possibility that there was more than one man who used the name "Plato", which is very easy to write and remember. Of course, Plato could change the word "lava" to the "water", because the person, who he told about the tale of the Atlantis because the opponent would nor know what "lava" means.

And when we are thinking about that Plato heard that famous story from some Egyptian priest would be the product of imagination. Plato didn't mention where and when he heard that story. There is a possibility, that he heard it at a very young age. The other version would be that he spent the night in the temple, and eavesdrop the discussion between two or more priests.

That thing could cause problems for him, and that's why he wrote that thing a long time after that happening. Or maybe Egyptian priest was away from the home at some Greek city and told that story to Plato, maybe after drinking too much wine. Or there is the change that Plato heard that story from some Egyptian sailor, who has claimed to hear that thing from the Egyptian priest.
