Real aliens and UFOs sightings history - part 3
The roman author Julius Obsequens, believed to have lived in the fourth
century A.D., drew on Livy as well as other sources of his time to
compile his book "Prodigorium liber", which describes many peculiar
phenomena, some of which could be interpreted as real aliens and UFO sightings. here
are just a few examples:
"[216 B.C.] Things like ships were seen in the sky over Italy... At
Arpi (180 Roman miles, east of Rome, in Apulia) a 'round shield' was
seen in the sky... At Capua, the sky was all on fire, and one saw
figures like ships... [99 B.C.] When C. Murius and L. Valerius were
consuls, in Tarquinia, there fell in different places... a thing like
a flaming torch, and it came suddenly from the sky. Towards sunset,
a round object like a globe, or round or circular shield took its
path in the sky, from west to east. [90 B.C.] In the territory of
Spoletium (65 Roman miles north of Rome, in Umbria) a globe of fire,
of golden colour, fell to the earth, gyrating. It then seemed to
increase in size, rose from the earth, and ascended into the sky,
where it obscured the disc of the sun, with its brilliance. It
revolved towards the eastern quadrant of the sky. [Harold T. wilkins,
"Flying Saucers on the Attack", pp. 164-69]
A later chronicler of inexplicable phenomena, one Conrad Wolffhart (a
professor of grammer and dielectrics who under the pen name of
Lycosthenes wrote the compendium "Prodigiorium ac Ostentorum
Chronicon", published in 1567), mentions the following events:
"[A.D 393] Strange lights were seen in the sky in the days of the
Emperor Theodosius. On a sudden, a bright globe appeared at
midnight. It shown brilliantly near the day star (planet, Venus),
about the circle of the zodiac. This globe shown little less
brilliantly than the planet, and little by little, a great number of
other glowing orbs drew near the first globe. The spectacle was like
a swarm of bees real aliens flying round the bee-keeper, and the light of these
orbs was as if they were dashing violently against each other. Soon,
they blended together into one awful flame, and bodied forth to the
eye as a horrible two-edged sword. The strange globe which was first
seen now appeared like the pommel to a handle, and all the little
orbs, fused with the first, shone as brilliantly as the first globe."
[This report is similar to modern accounts of UFO formations.]
[Harold T. Wilkins, "Flying Saucers on the Attack, pp. 174, 177]
