In 2006, during preliminary surveying for the construction of the William R. Bennett bridge, divers discovered several artifacts at the bottom of Okanagan lake.  A total of six objects were retreived at a depth of 60 meters at the crossing between Kelowna and West Kelowna. These artifacts, each measuring no larger than a foot in length, were extracted in the tephra sediment layer.  The most notable artifacts are the "Rosetta Plates", formally known as the "Blue Sky Historical Codex" (See section on Sky Network).

The discovery has since been heralded by the anthropology and archeology community as a "huge watershed moment", and the "Holy Grail" of what is now undoubtedly proof of a technologically superior ancient Atlantis-type society.

Geographical extent

Kelowna is a city on Okanagan Lake in the Okanagan Valley, in the southern interior of British Columbia, Canada. Its name derives from a native term for "grizzlybear". Kelowna ranks as the 22nd largest metropolitan area in Canada.

It is speculated that the total area covered by the settlement was relatively small, about the size of downtown Kelowna (2 km.sq) , and it is yet unknown how far this civilization stretched.

History

Unified Theory on Exact Date and Origins

The "Blue-Sky Peoples", (also known as “Pangeans”, “Berengians”)  as they are colloquially referred to by the scientific community, are of unknown species, but are largely believed to be homo-sapiens of unknown ethnic origin. 

The Blue-Sky Period (-30,000 -25,000 B.C. est.) witnessed what appears to be the peak of large-scale aquatic construction and massive technological development, the nano-encoding of historical inscriptions, and a period of significant intellectual and artistic development, in the central interior region which is now known as Kelowna, British Columbia.

 

The Blue Sky collapse

There is strong speculation that dependence on the "SKY" network system, may have led to the demise of this civilization, although theories such as disease, invasion, or environmental disaster are equally researched.  At present, there is no universally accepted theory to explain this collapse. 

Non-ecological theories of Blue-Sky decline are divided into several subcategories, such as overpopulation, foreign invasion, revolt, and the collapse of infrastructure. Ecological hypotheses include environmental disaster, epidemic disease, and climate change. There is evidence that the Blue-Sky population exceeded carrying capacity of the "SKY" network including exhaustion of the systems resources, and intuitive capabilities.

Scholars have recently theorized that an intense 200 year drought led to the collapse of the Blue-Sky civilization.  The drought theory originated from research performed by physical scientists studying lake beds, ancient pollen, and other data, not from the archaeological record.

 

Sky Network

 

Most notable of recent discoveries, includes information suggesting a technologically intensive, socialist-centered society.  At the heart of the Blue Sky people is a a sophisticated communications network termed the “SKY” network. This system is centred around what is believed to be a sub-atomic "air" based communication network similar to the telephone, or even the Internet. 

Speculation based on decoded texts suggests that the  Blue Sky civilization participated in long distance communication with external cultures with as of yet undetermined origins.  Whether this is extra-solar, or with relatively primitive ancestral-species of homo-sapiens, or with other undiscovered Blue Sky species, is undetermined.

Researchers speculate that the Rosetta Plates may contain a rich archive of imagery and audio/visual materials.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Architecture

 

Due to exposure to the elements, the Rosetta Plates/Blue Sky Codex suffered significant data corruption. However, thanks to the success of an electron-based cyclic redundancy scanner and algorithm, much of what is known is based on the recovery of a single image gleaned from a particularly resilient portion of the plate.  To date, this remains the only image retrieved in over four years of research. However, recent developments in digital remastering technologies suggest that further data recovery is possible. 

Analysis of the structure is limited to speculation.  It is believed to be a multi-purpose structure that functioned as a mass-transport way-station, repeater node for the sky network as well as residential and cultural facilities.  Spectrograph analysis indicates depth and height estimates accurate to 8/10’s of a meter.  It is estimated that the structure was modest, about eight stories in height.

 

Writing and Literacy

Writing system

The Rosetta Plates depict simplified text of a 20-character alphabet consisting of varied dots/oval lines and placement.  These texts have so far revealed information on genealogy, peace policies, artistic and scientific accomplishments and other as-of-yet undeciphered aspects.  Archaeologists have also found what is believed to be their version of a charter of rights. The function of two carved circular metal compounds (of unknown composition) remains disputed, however there is stong evidence suggesting these form the basis of more personal information archive, as compared to the high-level bureaucratic archive of the Sky Codex/Rosetta Plates.

The acute accent, the grave accent, the circumflex and the diaeresis mark are also used on vowels, but accented letters are not regarded as part of the alphabet.

Mathematics

The traditional counting system used by the Blue Sky language (Gauriazdra) is vigesimal, which is to say it is based on twenties, as in standard French numbers 70 (soixante-dix, literally "sixty-ten") to 99 (quatre-vingts-dix-neuf, literally "four twenties nineteen"). Gauriazdran numbers from 11 to 14 are "x on ten", 16 to 19 are "x on fifteen" (though 18 is more usually "two nines"); numbers from 21 to 39 are "1–19 on twenty", 40 is "two twenties", 60 is "three twenties", etc.

There is also a decimal counting system. This system is especially in common use for larger numbers. In this system, numerals between 10 and 100 have the form "x ten y", e.g. thirty-five in decimal is tri deg pump (three ten five).

While there is only one word for "one" (un), it triggers the softmutation (treiglad meddal) of feminine nouns, other than those beginning with "ll" and "rh". There are separate masculine and feminine forms of the numbers "two" (dau and dwy), "three" (tri and tair) and "four" (pedwar and pedair), which must agree with the grammatical gender of the objects being counted.
