Ancient History, Cyclic Catastrophism, Petroglyphs, Plasma Phenomena
This is what our ancestors saw in the sky.
This is not a human or even an animal. If one were on Earth when a massive solar erupted, plasma hitting the magnetosphere produces a definite pattern consistent with this image. Our ancestors must have been TERRIFIED.
It's a gigantic plasma discharge pattern and might have spawned legends of the wrath of God.
They were drawing what they saw when a massive plasma Arc struck Earth after a massive solar outburst; which is easily duplicated in plasma labs.
The winds from such an event would strip the surface clean of anything that wasn't polygonal masonry or dolmens and deposit it to low pressure areas or lower elevation. An amalgamation of sediment, artefacts, and the unfortunate.
Damage in the ancient and minimally excavated site of Tanis, Egypt.
If you want to dig further, look into the denisovans and any site with polygonal masonry (all over the globe). Seemingly, we build on top of old sites and are the descendants of the survivors.
Look for dendritic patterns (not fluvial) to get a good idea where some of the events may have occurred.
Mars might have seen similar or potentially greater devastation.
This explains the owl depictions:
No definitive answer exists, but a compelling theory by plasma physicist Anthony Peratt suggests these “squatter man” figures depict ancient high-energy auroral plasma discharges, seen globally due to intense solar events. Lab simulations match the motifs precisely, with surveys of millions of petroglyphs in 139 countries showing consistent southern orientations. Mainstream views cite cultural convergence or shamanic visions but lack such empirical backing.
In 2003, Anthony Peratt simulated plasma phenomena in a lab and found that under different stability-instability conditions, plasma would form specific shapes, some of them matching almost exactly what ancient people drew on rock.
The evidence is very compelling because it is the only thing in nature that actually resembles the specific shapes drawn by all those people, separated by the ocean and thousands of km, thousands of years ago.
So, how could they all have witnessed the same plasma formation?
The auroras we see close to the poles are basically plasma from the sun that penetrates down into the atmosphere. The more solar activity (like after a solar storm), the more plasma penetration, which generates more intense auroras that can be seen closer to the equator (last year we saw auroras in Spain after a solar storm). According to Peratt and others, if the solar wind had increased between one and two orders of magnitude, it could have produced those plasma formations in the atmosphere.
If this actually happened, it would have created serious climatic and biological disruptions, which would have given people a good reason to carve those specific shapes everywhere around the world.
And, indeed, evidence shows that about 12.000 years ago, there was a severe climatic disruption that ended the younger dryas. This event is associated with a geomagnetic excursion, a shifting of the magnetic poles and a weakening of the magnetic field, which would let solar energy penetrate into our atmosphere a lot more easily (meaning, you need less solar activity to create the same effect). There is also evidence to suggest that there was a major solar flare around that time and other times before that even left marks on the ground (vitrification).

Also, look for the 'Thunderbolts Project' and 'Symbols of an Alien Sky.'
It's worth the dig.
