The God Culture

In 1538, Gerardus Mercator published a world map that preserved one of the last cartographic witnesses to an ancient truth—labeling the Lequii Populi at 10°N, right in the Philippines, not Japan or Ryukyu. This episode of The Smoking Quill exposes how Jesuit and colonial manipulation led to centuries of geographic confusion, wrongly relocating the Lequios and Zipangu to Japan. But Mercator’s early maps, along with Ptolemy’s Barusse and Basacata Isles, all point to the Philippines as the ancient Isles of Gold, Aurea Chersonesus. From Barbosa’s 1516 identification of the Lequios in Luzon, to Mercator’s correction of Ptolemaic errors in 1569, we trace a clear cartographic trail to Luzon, Mindanao, and Palawan as the real ancient lands of gold—Chryse, Barusse, and Basacata. 🗺️ This isn’t theory—it’s documented truth. And even as Mercator eventually bowed to colonial pressure, his maps preserve the original memory. The truth was never erased.

📜 Watch as The God Culture walks step-by-step through Pliny’s ancient maritime itinerary—leading not to India or Japan, but directly to the gold-rich Philippine Islands! This isn’t speculation. It’s the Smoking Quill. In 77 A.D., Roman scholar Pliny the Elder outlined a maritime route from China to islands full of gold and silver—Chryse and Argyre—later known as Ophir and Tarshish. This route has been buried under centuries of colonial revisionism, where scholars mistranslated, misapplied, and misdirected his clear words. But not anymore. 👉 We show the actual rivers, promontories, and coastal cultures described by Pliny and prove—beyond doubt—that his Isles of Gold still exist today. 👉 Every step is cited, mapped, and decoded in full fidelity—nothing cut, nothing assumed. 🔗 Full article with citations: https://thegodculturephilippines.com/pliny-s-maritime-route-to-chryse/ 📚 Free eBook Download: Garden of Eden Revealed: The Book of Maps at https://www.thegodculture.org/books ⚠️ Academia erased Chryse.

The truth is in the field — and it’s been altered. Every year, the Aviv barley inspection claims to guide Yah’s calendar. But what if the barley being inspected in Israel today… is genetically modified? Selectively bred for speed? Planted for fodder, not faith? In this exposé, we uncover how modern Israeli barley and wheat are no longer the signs of the biblical year — and how the priestly calendar never relied on them in the first place. From GPC-B1 gene modifications to engineered early harvests, this is the untold story of why the "Aviv calendar" has no scriptural or agricultural foundation.
