Our Last Meeting. . Our last meetingwas a big success, despite the foul weatherthat descended upon us.

It was nice to see so many peopleturn up for our meeting despite the bad

weather. It just goes to show that badweather is no barrier to people who come toour meetings knowing they are going tohave a good time.

The film show up in the cinema, whichincluded the latest Blue Mountains UFOreports, latest Cryptozoological reportsconcerning the Blue Mountains so-calledBig Cats [ie giant marsupial carnivores]

and other news had everyone glued to theirseats.

Had the bad weather not put an endto our Skywatch plans we would have madeour first visit to the new location out beyond

the Water Board gate on Narrow Neck Road. The clifftop concerned affords a magnificentview of the cedar-Burragorang Valleys/USsecret space technology underground basesite etc. and I have already made manysightings from this spot. Lets hope theweather behaves itself for our next meetingwhen we can walk out to this splendidlocation.

Meet Homo proto-erectus Gilroyi Australias oldest fossil hominidskull.By Rex Gilroy . Copyright Rex Gilroy 2005.

On Thursday afternoon 6 th January, whilewalking my dog Cuddles out on Narrow NeckRoad, I chanced to see an unusually shaped rock

projecting from the roadside ironstone rubbleembankment.

Upon closer inspection I saw whatappeared to be a thick brow ridge and eyesocket. Excitedly digging around the rock with astick, I soon held a deteriorated, solid mudstone-type mineralised hominid skull in my hands.

I knew that the ironstone rubble belongedto the 2 metre or so deep strata known to havebeen deposited over the Blue Mountainsthroughout the Pleistocene period, which lastedfrom about 2 million to around 10,000 years BP[Before Present], which suggested that I hadunearthed a fossil of considerable age.

Excitedly I returned to Heather, waiting for me atthe Water Board gate to show her my find. Ireturned to the site the following afternoon with

Cuddles to properly sketch, measure andphotograph the site. I did not get a chance tocomplete this work for, as I stepped back fromthe embankment to take a long shot of thestrata, I fell over Cuddles, who had decided to sitdown on the road behind me. The force of thefall dislocated my right shoulder besides strikingmy elbow on hard ironstone!The skull recovered by Rex Gilroy out onNarrow Neck Peninsula, which could change

Australias history

of stone-age occupation of this continent.Photo copyright Rex Gilroy 2005.In agony I got to my feet and, with my

left arm I quickly grabbed my backpack, placingsketch folder, cameras and other equipmentinside it, and with my right arm held outward,made a quick, painful return to the gate whereHeather drove me straight to KatoombaHospitals Emergency ward where another hourof agony awaited me before I was put under andthe shoulder reduced.

Nobody will ever be able to say that I donot work hard for my discoveries!

I returned to the site on Thursday 13th

January, my arm in a sling [without Cuddles],accompanied by Greg Foster. We completed thephotography and measurement of the skulls

situation and deposit, before measuring sectionsof the ironstone strata some metres to north andsouth of the roadside embankment, in order toobtain a good positive dating of the fossil.

Close up of thehollow. Photocopyright Rex Gilroy 2005.

The surface [soil] strata is at least 40cm deephereabouts, covering the last 10,000 years,below which lies the ironstone rubble andmineralised soil of the Pleistocene period, being1.64metres deep at the point where the skullwas unearthed. The deteriorated condition of theskull shows that, at some time in the dim pastafter it had been buried and becomemineralised, it had been re-exposed on thesurface ages later, where the elements had notbeen kind to it, explaining the many pit-marksand hollows in it. Eventually it became buried

again, where it remained until exposed again bytime and weathering to be found by me.As is usual with such fossils, the skull had

been subjected to some distortion caused in theearly stages of burial. Once moisture in the soilhad softened the bones these began to break inplaces, chiefly in the braincase where soil hadnot had time to fill the interior to act as a soliddeterrent to collapse. As a result the braincasewas crushed, what

remains having been pushed forward intothe frontal section of the skull, thus crushing themaxilla on both sides. The remains of the upperdental arch can still be detected, the lower jawat some stage having become detached from theskull.

The frontal section of the left eye socketand brow ridge is missing, this section of bonehaving fallen away with a section of the leftcranium. However, the remains of the right thick,projecting brow ridge and large eye socket canbe seen, as well as a sagittal crest, rising upacross the centre of this flattish cranium. Had it

bee intact, the skulls shape would have beendoliocephalic [ie long and narrow], in the mannerof Homo erectus. There is a projecting muzzle.

Yet the sagittal crest, and also the appearance of the large eye sockets, which tend to bulgeoutwards to left and right from the skull, unlikeany Homo erectus skull-types so far discoveredby me in Australia, suggest that this skull issomething different.

The sagittal crest itself is a rarity, beingfound only in a few archaic Homo erectus skull-types in Asia and Europe, although it is found inarchaic Australopithecine specimens from Africa.So how old is this Katoomba hominid fossil?

According to Australian Museum Sydneygeologist some years ago when studying a fossilhominid foot from Wentworth Falls, the

4

mineralisation process can vary; for example,limestone, mudstone or calcrete mineralisationcan take up to 200,000-250,000 years BP, whileironstone and basalt mineralisation well overthat time scale. These are however, veryguarded and conservative estimate s made by

scientists too often unprepared to committhemselves on such problems.

Greg Fosterexamining asection of Pleistoceneironstonerubble at thesite. Photocopyright Rex Gilroy2005.

We can at least say that the Narrow Neckskull had to have first been buried no less than200,000 years before it somehow resurfaced tobecome so badly weathered.

It then lay in the base, deposits of thevery dawn of the Pleistocene period until re-exposed in modern times. These deposits, saygeologists, date back approximately 2 millionyears BP.

The skull is far older than any Homoerectus specimens yet found in Australia, and its

primitive features, particularly the sagittal crest,tend to place it in an earlier, pre-erectus era. Onthese grounds I have identified it as a pre-erectus ancestral race and named it Homoprotoerectus Gilroyi; the evidence suggestingthat Homo erectus evolved from this race around2 million years ago, its ancestors originsstretching back at least into the late Plioceneperiod of around 3 million years ago!

If the above is true, Homo erectusevolved first in Australia, and not in Africa, inturn to evolve into the earliest modern humanshere [as deduced from previous fossil finds of

mine], these races to subsequently migratenorthwards to spread out across the earth.

*****

A small area beneath the craniumescaped soil filling to reveal a cranial bonethickness of about 1cm. The robust appearanceof the skull, with its thick, projecting [right] browridge suggests it to have been a male hominid.What remains of the skull provides the following

measurements: The fossils length from muzzle to rear of

remaining skull is 20cm; the skulls rear being16cm in depth, the frontal section 17.5cm indepth, with a width of 21.5cm. What remains of the sagittal crest is 1cm tall by 2cm width.

Judging from the right eye socket measurementsboth sockets would measure 6cm in width by3.5cm in height. What remains of the upperdental arch measures 7cm in length by 9cm inwidth. There may, or may not be remaining signsof three or four tooth sockets .

Had the skull been intact it is possible toarrive at an approximate height of about1.6metres for this hominid.

***** The Homo protoerectus skull is not alone,

for at another nearby location of the road onSaturday January 1 st 2005, I recovered adistorted, child-size brain endocast of ironstone,and for many years I have been recovering crudeironstone eoliths [ie dawn tools], hardlyrecognizable except to the trained eye. Thesetools, if that is what they appear to be, consistof primitive chopping, cutting and scraping

implements. Often recovered from the depositsof the Pleistocene roadside embankment, theyfavourably compare with others of their kindfound elsewhere in Australia as well as in ancienthominid sites in Asia and Africa.

The road was cut through to the far endof narrow Neck Peninsula during 1962-1963. Atthe site of the skulls discovery it cuts deep intothe slope of a rise that drops into a deep gullywhich, from south to north, follows the base of the road to the northern cliffs of the Neck.

In the dawn mists of the Pleistocenewhere the road now extends was the shoreline of

a swamp that extended the full length of therise, from the southern to the northern cliffs of this section of Narrow Neck Peninsula. Crudeeoliths recovered about its former shorelinesuggests that groups of primitive Homo livedhere, drinking the water and hunting whatappears to have been a rich abundance of marsupial and other wildlife that inhabited theforests here. Yet, with the close of thePleistocene and the drying up of the swamp atsome stage, erosion cut deep to create thesloping, deep gully of today.

Copyright Rex Gilroy 2005.Over the last three months there have beenfurther new developments in the search byresearchers of the Australian Unknown AnimalsResearch Centre, Blue Mountains Big CatsInvestigation Centre as well as the Temple of Nim mystery animals investigation team, allorganized by the Gilroys. I also have other Gilroyteam researchers gathering evidence on theNSW North and South Coasts, all in an effort togather and collate as much evidence as possibleon the Eastern Australian so-called Big Catsmystery.

Actually, aside from the debate on justhow many species are involved in this mystery, it

is certain that we are not dealing with cats assuch, but rather related species of marsupialcarnivores probably related to the extinctMarsupial Lion, Thylacoleo carnifex.

Casts obtained by colleagues GregFoster and Glen Johnson in recent times, from

the Kurrajong and Newnes areas respectivelyhave, together with other tracks recentlyuncovered by myself and Ann Taylor, helped tofinally

establish what I have suspected for manyyears, namely that there are two species of the so-called Australian Panther, and thatthe Blue Mountains Lion has its strongestnumbers here within the Blue Mountainsregion, from where the species might have

evolved in Pleistocene times to spread outacross the Eastern Australian ranges.

Readers will be pleased to know that,despite the recent theft of casts of the BlueMountains Lion the panther and Tasmanian

Cryptozoologists, all have been replaced bynew finds by Heather and I and our team of dedicated researchers. Glen Johnson and partnerKatrina have found a new Thylacine site nearLithgow, while Greg obtained casts from theKurrajong area, which included a Blue

Mountains Lion specimen. Also AmericanCryptozoologist Todd Jurasek loaned me copiesof these casts that I had given him earlier thusenabling me to make new copies.

On Sunday 2 nd January Heather, Ann Taylor and I made a trip into the forest countrybehind Lithgow. Searching along a track alreadyexplored last September by AmericanCryptozoologist Todd Jurasek, we uncovered anumber of enormous tracks, faded in dry sand.Even so, reasonably good casts were obtainedof two specimens. These tracks however wereenormous, being 19cm in width across the fourtoes, by 16cm length from toes to back of rearpad. The rear pad was 8cm wide by 6.5cm long,the tracks being 2cm in depth. These massivetracks were considerably larger than theaverage 13cm wide by 15cm long smallerpanther species tracks. It is obvious that we aredealing with two different [though closelyrelated] species of giant marsupial cat.

This beast has beenidentified from tracks cast outon Narrow Neck Peninsula inApril 2003, at the time of theBlue Mountains Lion scarewhen tracks were discovered inthe same area. It can safely be estimated thatthis giant is up to 2.6m from head to tail tip,standing about 95cm on all fours.

Recently Glen Johnson and I made asearch in the mountain country behind Lithgowwhere he had previously

There is yet one more monstermarsupial, a five toed giant whose tracksmeasure an average 23cm length by 22.5cmwidth across the toes and 16cm wide at the backof the pad.Recently Glen Johnson and I made a search inthe mountain country behind Lithgow where hehad previously found panther tracks. Wesearched the mud around a remote waterholewithout success, although some large indistincttracks were found on a remote 4-wheel driveroad in the vicinity of a pine forest.

It was while in this forest that Glenthought he spotted something black movingthrough scrub some distance away. While hewent in pursuit from his end I left the forest andrunning along a nearby road with camera at theready, hoped to catch sight of the mystery shapeas it emerged out of the forest into an adjoiningswamp. The creature, whatever it was, did notappear. Had it been a panther? It is hard to say,but there is no doubt that these marsupial giants

are present

thereabouts.Perhaps our next joint searchhereabouts will bemore successful .

--0Major Uru Discovery

in the Wattagan Mountains.By Rex Gilroy. Copyright Rex Gilroy 2005.

Having spent Christmas with our friends

Bob and Meg Tipping, at their Morriset home[and prior to them coming to Katoomba to spendNew Year with us], Megs son Steven McCullochof Nundle, drove me up into the nearbyWattagan Mountain Range on a search forevidence of giant monitor lizards.

However, when we reached a remotetrack deep inside the range, we soon forgotabout the lizards, when I stumbled upon a ruinedmegalithic ironstone structure. For the past 20years or so I have believed that the Uru oncesettled this region. Before the day was out, witha second discovery hereabouts, by belief wasvindicated.Searching amid the fallen stonework of thisremarkable find I realised it to be the remains of a small temple. Erected upon a northwestsoutheast axis, with Stevens assistance Imeasured the structure at 10.4 metres length by4.8m width. At the southeast end we uncoveredtwo large altar stones, one bearing Uru script,erected 3.3m apart. Amid the ruins we alsoturned up three votive offering stones. One borethe weathered carving of a human head on oneside, and on the other the Uruan inscription: I-na and the message: On this ground to thetemple of Nim an offering is given, one of I-na.

The second inscribed stone found bore themessage Pa, the elder, to the Sun, an offering.

The third stonebore a female headand the message : An offering made by QueenSygu.

On a nearby track I afterwards turned upanother, large stone head, bearing theinscription: Mourn Sy-da-I, a King of Uru. Thismourning inscription probably originated fromthe temple.

That Uruan rulers visited this site it ispossible that the Nim temple was a structureerected for the exclusive use of local Uruanroyalty. The site was at least several thousandyears old.

The inscribed altar measured 1m inlength by 1.5m width and 17cm tall. A libationdepression was situated at one end, the rest of

the altar being covered in large to smallerglyphs, which I afterwards translated to read:Behold Nim, Nim at this place, the Temple of the Suns Brilliance. In praise of Nim the Sun,at this altar, to Nims face pour libations.

After recording the site we drove on

along another remote road to a clifftop, wherewhile exploring the scrub near the cliff, I cameacross a mass of rubble. It appeared to methat the ironstone rubble once formed anothertemple. In the rubble we soon recoveredanother four inscribed stones. One of thesewas a large, 35cm tall by 26cm wide and8.5cm thick stone bearing a human head on

one side with Uruan letterings that read: MournKing Ui-ga-da. Another 13cm tall by 16.5cmwide stone bore a head with the message KingImi. It had probably been left with an offering atthis temple site, as was another, 18cm tall by13cm wide stone bearing a female head andglyphs reading Queen Ra-mi, the royal life-giverof Uru. The other carved stone was a little 11cmtall by 5.2cm wide bird head image carved onone side with glyphs on the other stating:Offering to I-na at the temple of Nim.

I-na was of course the Eagle of the Sun,who in Uruan mythology carried the Sun acrossthe sky each day in his beak from east to west.

It appears to me that the WattaganMountain Range held the seat of government fora large north coast Uruan kingdom, whosesettlements occupied the coastal region below.

This discovery comes too late to beincluded in my already bulging book Uru TheLost civilisation of Australia, but will certainlybe featured in another Uru book now in theplanning stage. Uru The Lost Civilisation of Australia is now close to publication, containingthe results of my [to date] almost 45 years fieldresearch into this remarkable advanced stone-age megalithic civilisation. The Australian bushis full of surprises for those who take the troubleto look.

Latest UFO News. 2005 looks like beinggreat year for UFOlogy, especially here on theBlue Mountains and in the Central West.

Since the symposium held at Orange tohelp the newly formed Central West Paranormalresearch Group become known, organizersDebra Goninan and Russell Dunn have beenreceiving more enquires and can expect a rise

in membership. Thanks to our joint efforts thelocal media are now well aware of theirexistence. We look forward to future jointactivities between the Big Three CentralWest Paranormal Research Group, UFOResearch NSW and Blue Mountains UFOResearch Club. Debra and Russell are expectedto attend our next meeting and perhaps othermembers of their exciting little group, and I am at present arranging a joint meeting here atKatoomba between our three clubs with WendyBurnhams assistance.More photos from the Orange NSWUnexplained Mysteries Symposiumorganized by Debra Goninan andRussell Dunn, who we take our hats off to for the magnificent job they did.

Well done folks, theCentral West ParanormalResearch Group hasdefinitely arrived!

More new faces are expected at our nextBlue Mountains UFO Research Club meeting andI have arranged some very interesting DVD-Video entertainment for our meeting in the RexCinema [see program].

Bleu Mountains UFO Research Club willbe doing Skywatches at other venues this year,including one very spectacular site, reach by

walking from the Water Board gate along NarrowNeck Road for about 15-20 minutes. The locationis a clifftop overlooking Cedar Valley, whichopens out into the Burragorang Valley.

The plan is to walk out there at sunset soas to establish ourselves and see the beautifulview before it gets dark. Just bring a torch for thewalk back to the cars.

This location offers a far wider and closerview of the Burragorang Valley and hardly anight is passing lately that some mysteriousobject is not being seen over that valley, or evenflying up Cedar Valley. For those willing to makethe walk the Skywatches out there will be veryrewarding. If the weather is good we will visitthis new site at our next meeting.

On Thursday 27th

January at about4.30pm I was walking cuddles up Ficus Street. Iwas about to turn the corner at the south end of the street and head for the Katoomba Gold

Course where I let Cuddles have a run, whenglancing over the Jamieson Valley towards thesouth-east, and just above low cloud level southof the D.O.T. towers out on Kings TablelandsRoad, I spotted a faint silver long [cylindrical]object hovering above passing low clouds. As I

stood watching for the next minute, the objectbegan moving into a large cloud from which itdid not appear to emerge.

Then on the following Thursdayafternoon, 3 rd February, while again walkingCuddles in Katoomba Golf Course, while standingon a high spot looking east, I happened to noticea bright silvery object, perhaps saucer-like,hovering high above the huge storm clouds. Thetime was 5.45pm. The strange craft stoodmotionless for a full five minutes, then,commencing to move slowly to the northwest,entered a huge cloud. I waited for some timehoping to catch a view of it emerging, but itnever reappeared.

I was not alone in seeing this object, forthere were a few golfers having some after-hourspractice who stopped to look and point at it.

Katoomba Gold Course has been thescene of numerous sightings in the wee smallhours, particularly to the east of Katoomba, orelse overhead in the sky on clear nights. It washere around 1am recently I was taking |cuddlesfor a late night walk, when I spotted themysterious gigantic space station high abovethe earth for the first time in weeks. It is backagain as I write, and has been moving about inthe southwest region of the sky. On Tuesday 18 th

January [reported to me two days later] ahusband and wife werereturning to their vehicle atthe Water Board gate onNarrow Neck Road after awalk out to the Fire Tower.

The time was 9pm and theywere using a torch to findtheir way along the road. Asthey were only a few minutes

from the gate they bothspotted, to the northwestabove Megalong Valley, threereddish-orange glowing dart-like craft moving one behindthe other from north to south,passing to the west of themabout 1km above NarrowNeck. As the craft movedsouth, the rear craft seemedto just switch off suddenly, then the other twoseparated, one flying off at some speed to thesouthwest out of view, as did the other, flying

southwest.I have met people on the Blue Mountains

over the years who have had strangeexperiences involving UFOs even sightings of

11


12/15


apparent alien crews, mostly at night, and acouple out on Narrow Neck Peninsula, which haslong been an area of mysterious happenings[read my book Australian UFOs Through theWindow of Time for more details], which havemore often than not left the people concerned

with remarkable abilities they never had before.Some of these people have become clairaudientsand clairvoyants. Some claim that after a closeencounter or time-warp experience out on theNeck they have acquired the ability to hearETs speaking to them through their minds, andone man once told me of an experience he hadin a Springwood gully, when a voice spoke tohim through his mind not to venture any furtherinto a patch of forest and to turn back. He laterhad the uncanny feeling that some kind of crafthad landed there the night before.

In another UFO being prepared by methere will be cases such as the people who havebeen abducted and taken aboard a craft whereimages in their minds, including scenes fromtheir past, were somehow extracted via strangeapparatus placed on their heads by ETs, thenprojected upon a large screen, after which theywere released.

Some of these cases have occurred overthe years on the Blue Mountains and makeinteresting reading.

There have been cases where peoplehave claimed that, having been abducted ontoone strange craft or another, they have beensent back in time by various means to relive allor parts of their past lives, only to be returnedto the present, having spent years in the pastwhen in fact only minutes had elapsed in thepresent.

We wonder what is the purpose of suchexperiments. Yet unless all these people haveimagined their experiences, it is obvious thatthese beings come from super-civilisationselsewhere in the Universe whose sciences arefar, far beyond our present comprehension.

Club Activities. Just before ChristmasHeather and I paid a visit to Mark Cooper in theBrain Injury Unit at Westmead Hospital and whocontinues a slow but good recovery from his caraccident. When we caught up with him he had

just been to the Hospital Christmas party andwas wearing a party hat as you can see in thephoto.

Our Clubs Christmas party meeting wentoff well, with a visit from Bill Chalker, and therewere some special film presentations in the RexCinema.

Jessica, as well as Bob and Meg Tipping as wellas sons Steven and Allan, old friends Valerie

Yates and Yule Verner among our regulars. Aftermidnight I led a party of dedicated Skywatchers

consisting of Angelo Soccio, Pam Boyne Ann Taylor, Evan Rainer and Jessica up to nearbyKatoomba Golf Course.

Although nothing appeared that night[perhaps the ETs were holding their own partieselsewhere???] we all still had a lot of fun. Later

the next day with Steve McCulloch and Ann Taylor made a hike out past the Water Boardgate on Narrow Neck Road, during which I turnedup a small, child-size hominid mineralised brainendocast and one dawn tool. Just prior to thehike at another Narrow Neck location we found asmall dinosaur front two clawed hand print andin the same area I came across a giant hominidfossil footprint 48cm in length by 31cm width by3.5cm in depth, encased in ironstone a goodstart to 2005.

My Temple of Nim research team iscertainly getting off to a fine start for 2005. Inthe months ahead Orange NSW members DebraGoninan and Russell Dunn will be assisting withthe measurement and researching of themassive megalithic temple site they discoveredlast year. This ancient structure is an undoubtedtemple to the Uruan Sun God, Nim. It has alsobeen names the Temple of |Debra in honour of its discoverer!

Ay-I the supreme being of the old Uru,but his son, Nim seems to have had far moretemples built to him than any Uruan deity. Threemore temples, like the Orange NSW structure,constructed from granite rocks, were found byHeather and I outside Canberra late last year, allin close proximity to each other. These alsoawait measuring and photographing as soon aspossible, so the coming months are going to bequite busy. Amid all this our Bowral Temple of Nim team member, Trevene Mattox will behelping Heather and I in our uncovering of moretraces of ancient [Bronze Age] Phoenician open-cut god, copper, tin and silver mines in her

district. Those so far discovered have all beenidentified as Egypto-Phoenician from the ancientrock inscriptions left by these people at thesesites.

Meanwhile work continues on my sequelto Pyramids in the Pacific Pyramids of

Destiny-Lost pacific Colonies of the Bronze-AgeGod-Kings, which deals primarily with all themining colonies established here, which in somecases formed great kingdoms ruled over thelocally-created Pharaohs. The daily lives of theworkers and their families are reconstructedfrom translations of the hundreds of rockinscriptions translated by me over the last 45years of field research. By the time it is completethis book may be larger than its predecessor!

Meanwhile Uru The Lost MegalithicCivilisation Of Australia is very close tocompletion, only a small amount of material hasto be added on disc and final decisions onphotographs made and the cover added. Weanticipate publication within the next threemonths. This book is the culmination of almost45 years field research, 28 years of which werespent trying to break the translation of whatturned out to be a mother script. We anticipatethat both these books will be best sellers.
