This isn't Lumi and I'm not a UFO person, I just thought it was interesting they put them in pictures for some unknown reason.

I could care less about religion, I just wanna know why there's UFOs in old ass paintings!

The only thing comparative I know of, is the Hindu dudes talking about their 8 armed gods flying around in the sky and battling each other. The stuff in these pictures aren't "divine" origin though, they're metal ships.

Non-divine, sky phenomenon didn't become popularized until the 20th century, I'm pretty sure. I know there's some old, native American groups that claim we came from "star people" or some crap, but even they don't talk about people flying around in metal ships in the sky.

I dunno I see blobs of tiny paint, not "metal".



That being said, it's not like I'd discount the possibility of UFOs and/or alien life. It's fairly plausible compared to some of the other shit people buy into (OMGOMG BUILD FALLOUT SHELTERS FOR 2012 JUDGEMENT DAY)

I've always been kind of fascinated about the Nuremberg event back in 1561:

The main reason is because, unlike those paintings that have nothing to do with UFO's supposedly featuring them, in this woodcut the artist is actually attempting to show what hundreds of people witnessed.

(And yes, it looks like a really bad acid trip, but if mass ergot poisoning is the only explanation detractors can give then I ask you how a drug/poison can give the same exact delusion to countless people all over a city.)

i love to think about this stuff. really crazy to think about something so technologically advanced for our time period to be included so long ago in paintings.
