Results of the Skywatch held 21st January, 2006.Our Skywatch following our January 21st meeting was well attended and enjoyable, with a few

interesting incidents observed in the Burragorang Valley.At 9.30pm a vertical silver flash was observed moving over Narrow Neck Peninsula from the

south-east to north-west.Then at 10pm a silvery light appeared in the Burragorang Valley, observed between the Ruined

Castle rock formation and the western side of Mt solitary. The light was present for about one minutebefore fading away.

At 10.15pm just to the west of this side of the Mt Solitary formation we saw two silvery lights

moving low above the valley floor for about 30 seconds.*****

I have been informed that a pink-glowing round saucer type craft was seen at 2.45am on Tuesday24th January, flying high above Burragorang Valley from behind Mt solitary, to descend from cloud level

over the far cliffs of Narrow Neck. It is said to have lit up the plateaus forest, as if either landing there, orelse moving down into Megalong Valley. Several people sighted the craft.

The giant space station that created quite a fuss 2 years ago has been spotted in the north-east skyrecently by a number of locals, and I have seen it moving slowly over the south-west horizon around 3am

while walking Cuddles on Monday 30th January. A Skywatch from the Kanangra Boyd National Parkcould prove rewarding in the light of recent sightings over that side of the Burragorang and I plan a

special trip with Heather and anyone else interested.*****

Yowie Search in Jamieson Valley.Back in October 1979 I led a [then] Radio station 2KA/Army backed [176 th Air Supply Squadron

troop] on a search in the valley below Ruined Castle Rock formation.The search was a success, with the discovery of three sets of hominid footprints found in forest

soil. With some difficulty I was able to make a plaster cast of the best possible foot impression despitetwigs and leaves covering the site.

At present Heather and I are filming URU Film Productions first documentary on the Yowie

mystery, and I plan to return to this location, as well as film scene at the spot between Mt Solitary andRuined Castle where, on August 7th 1970 about 3.30pm I saw a male Yowie.2006 will see renewed field searches for evidence of the hairy people in the Kanangra Boyd,

Wollemi regions and elsewhere, the searches being filmed for the documentary. Assisting us will be

Indiana Gilroy and the Temples of Nim. By Rex Gilroy. Copyright Rex Gilroy 2006.The past year has seen a great many new archaeological finds added to the Gilroy collection; the

latest Mayan relics and temple discovery on the Atherton Tableland and at Cooktown come readily tomind. And then there were the ancient mining slag sites and inscribed stones and images left behind onseveral Queensland coastal sites by the Bronze-Age Phoenicians, Egyptians and their allies.

Now we have the latest fantastic discoveries in the Flinders Ranges to pursue further. There havebeen new fossil hominid discoveries too, which are still being studied. All this has to be done in betweenputting our next book Out of the Dreamtime The Search for Australias Unknown Animals onto discready for the printers. This book, containing some thousands of reports, has been several years inpreparation and will eclipse anything of this kind ever published in Australia to date [the Gilroys like doingthings in a big way!]. And on top of this there are our UFO investigations and a new UFO book toprepare!

2005 has been a successful year for the Temple of Nim research teams, and 2006 promisesalready to be even more so.

Nim, the Sun-God of old Uru appears to have had countless temples and shrines erected in hishonour. During 2005 however, several major discoveries dedicated to other Uruan deities were added tothe list, including two 90m or so tall astronomical pyramids at a Blue Mountains site, and another waslocated deep in the Wollemi wilderness still awaiting a proper survey. I plan to do this during the coming

winter months. Currently the search is on for trustworthy people to join the Temple of Nim researchersand assist the Gilroys in the field.

Last year our colleagues [now Mr. and Mrs.] Debra and Russell Dunn showed Heather and I atruly massive megalithic temple complex. Consisting of in some cases, monstrous monolithic graniteboulders, the entire site included a wide assembly area and megalithic circles. A tall, weathered rock hadbeen carved to depict Ara, the Moon-goddess and sister of Nim. This figure held in her enfolding arms[now barely visible], a tall bird image, almost Egyptian in character, and which an inscription on a rock atthe base of the images identified as Ara, and her protector, the Owl god, Ma. Nim was not left out, foratop a cliff that juts out over a valley directly behind the extensive complex, stands a round boulderbearing a pair of round eyes, nose and wide mouth, with glyphs to one side stating Nim.

This discovery was made on the late afternoon on which Debra and Russell took Heather and I tothe site, in the Orange district in December 2004. After a quick inspection of the other structures, torchin hand, and followed by Cuddles who was with us, Russell and I worked our way down a tree -coveredslope among other formations to eventually [by now in pitch darkness], to find ourselves on the narrowcliff at the end of which was the massive Nim head. At this point we abandoned this preliminaryinvestigation.

Heather and I later returned and spent a whole day measuring what we could and also doing aquick video presentation of the site for the Blue Mountains UFO Research Club meetings. Stonealignments were discovered which plotted the summer and Winter Solstices and also Moon phases. Othersmall temples and shrines were uncovered on the slope. This site could take years to fully study and wehand only barely touched the tip of the iceberg so to speak. We nicknamed the site the Temple of

Debra, which is appropriate, because Debra has, with Russell, discovered one of the most important andextensive Uruan temple complexes so far discovered anywhere in Australia!

But what of our great Sun-God, Nim. His name is found upon altars and hill pyramid temple sitesand other crude structures from Western Australia to the ACT, to New Zealand and the Americas, andhere on the Blue Mountains countless shrines and temples bear his name.

The Lost City of Kanangra only last October revealed hitherto unknown new finds coveringextensive tracts of forest-covered megalithic formations; one being another habitation area consisting ofstone huts now turned to rubble heaps, and the other, a large temple complex with vast assembly area.

The temple, constructed in a great square formation marked out by massive granite stones, includes agreat round boulder bearing the face of Nim similar to the Orange district example just mentioned.

I had little time to film the temple as the sun was sinking low, but took some remarkable photos

for the time being, and carried out some quick measurements before I had to return to the car andHeather, a great distance away. There were stone markers for Sun, Moon and other planetary alignmentsbut these will have to wait until our return in the near future.

The Lost City of Kanangra as previously stated in other Temple of Nim articles, covers atleast 10 square kilometres, and perhaps more than that if any more finds like these latest two are made.

Last year leading field assistant Greg foster and I investigated a great hill [astronomical] temple sitein Sydneys south-west, which I had earlier found to be part of a massive ley line. Another ley line extendsthrough the Blue Mountains. This winter the Gilroys will work their way through dense scrub to film andmeasure out the latest Kanangra Lost City finds, as well as other settlement ruins at another remote

location. All this must be done in winter to avoid snakebite in such an out-of-the-way region, as in thesummer months this place is crawling with them!In one place, in the vicinity of stone alignments extending north-south through dense forest, there

rises a tall granite rock in the form of a kangaroo head. Faded glyphs at the base identify him as Ga -na,the Protector of the Gods. This kangaroo deity was second only to I -na in importance; I-na of coursebeing the Eagle of the Sun, who carried Nim across the heavens each day from east to west.

In a recent interview on the Geoff Rense [American] radio program, he and Brad Steigerchristened us Rex and Heather Indiana Gilroy, and we are certainly living up to that name!

What awaits Rex and Heather Indiana Gilroy in 2006? Many things: there is a new possible Uruantemple and settlement complex deep in the Wollemi in need of detailed investigation; a new Bronze-AgePhoenician open-cut mining site in the Bathurst region needing our attention; further fieldwork at the

Joadja Valley open-cut mines; detailed investigation of Bronze-Age rock script sites on the CentralCoast/Hawkesbury river; and the search for new Palaeoanthropological sites in Sydneys west together with our colleague Greg Foster.

Greg has over recent months made some startling fossil [mineralised] hominid skull finds whichhave great bearing upon the finds being made on the Blue Mountains of hominid skull-types, and I believethat even here, the surface is barely being scratched. What new and exciting discoveries await Greg in the

Western suburbs?Having recently reached a total of 1,000 rock scripts, stone idols etc, we believe that the Gilroy

collection contains more than enough evidence to blast Captain James Cooks Endeavour [not to mentionall those Dutch ships] clear out of the water! Australias history is far, far older than that! And so theGilroys continue on into 2006 in anticipation of yet more important discoveries.

In the Gosford area, on Saturday 4 thFebruary [sameday as the Yowie footprints casting] Greg and Rex

returned to an Uru astronomical temple site they hadnot seen since they found it six years ago. The resultswere incredible. Not only were new Uru rock scripts

found [like these, seen here with Greg] which have yetto be translated, but a Phoenician inscription was

discovered by Rex nearby.Photo copyright Rex Gilroy 2006.

Sneak Preview. In our next newsletter there will be full report on a new Uruan temple site,discovered by Temple Of Nim leading field assistant Kathryn McCloghry on Christmas Day. On Sunday12th February Heather and Rex Gilroy accompanied her to the Gosford district site. Kathryn and Rexuncovered a number of Uru inscriptions, identifying the site as a temple dedicated to the Uruan MoonGoddess, Ara. Kathryn also made a remarkable inscription find on a rockface believed to be a cityemblem.

This inscription reads: The Sun, Nim.Photo copyright Rex Gilroy 2006.

Lions and Tigers and Bears [of the Wollemi] Oh My! By Rex Gilroy. Copyright Rex Gilroy 2006.The Wollemi wilderness region, to which one can also add the adjoining Wollangambie and

Newnes forestlands, is a vast, eerie and rugged region, known for its panther sightings. Yet it is alsohome to the Blue Mountains Lion and Thylacine. There have been claimed sightings of the mysteriousGiant Emu hereabouts, and in 2004, together with American Cryptozoologist, Todd Jurasek, Iuncovered a number of oversize emu tracks which we made plaster casts of. Then there are those otherreports, of giant monitor lizards; sightings claims of the Yowie/Homo erectus are now backed up bytraces of recent camp fires and recently manufactured stone tools.

And then there are those confounded Drop Bears which newcomers to the Australian bush

[Americans like Todd Jurasek] are constantly warned to beware ofand you can really convince a yankwith that onelest they sustain serious injury when these giant koalas fall from great heights!

On a serious note, among last years discoveries here were oversized panther tracks. On January2nd 2005 I uncovered massive tracks measuring 22cm in width across the toes by 16cm length from toe tip

In our previous Temple of Nim Newsletter we reportedon the discovery, on Tuesday 20thDecember 2005, out onNarrow neck Peninsula, of the Gilroy/McCloghry skull,a heavily [ironstone] mineralised skullcap now seen as an

intermediate form between Late Homo erectus andArchaic Homo sapiens between 1 million and8000,000 years old. A full report with up-to-date

information will be in our next Newsletter.Photo copyright Rex Gilroy 2006.

to back of heel, making the track easily twice the size of the previously largest panther tracks. Of course astudy of the paw prints shows these panthers to be marsupials, and therefore, like the Blue MountainsLion, we are in fact dealing with large marsupial carnivores surely related to the marsupial carnivoremegafauna of the last Ice-Age, which ended around 12,000 or so years ago.

These so-called Big cats appear to reach astounding proportions, and the Giant Panther whosepaw prints have just been described, is according to a number of sightings claims, both hereabouts andelsewhere, capable of 2m to 2.6m lengthnose tip to tail tip, by 1.2 to 1.4m standing on all fours! Lionsseen on the Blue Mountains appear also to reach these proportions.

The huge lion tracks found on Narrow Neck plateau outside Katoomba in 2003 and 2004, wereadded to on Tuesday 15th March 2005 when, with Heather and Greg Foster, we took an ATN7 cameracrew to a former paw print site to do an interview with casts of the original tracks found there. To ourgreat surprise we discovered three, faded paw impressions in dried sand which the camera crew were ableto film. These paw impressions measured 28cm width by 18cm length, and were on the edge of a dried upmuddy pool. It proved that members of this species still inhabits the plateau, and probably reach here viaa steep climb that leads up through scrub and rocks from Megalong Valley, where the lions and big catshave been part of local folklore since the 19th century.

*****In recent months there have been sightings claims of one or more Thylacines in a particular region

of the Wollemi, and this year the Gilroys and any helpers will be out there in search of possible fresh pawprints in the forest soil.

In one instance, that occurred in October last year, a man in a 4-wheel drive vehicle caught aglimpse of an animal moving across a dirt road ahead of him. It was a large, mousy-brown furred bodieddog-like animal with a row of blackish body stripes extending barrelwise along its back.

The time was around 10pm and I got a good look at it in the glare of the headlights before itvanished into the bush, the man Ted Scott informed me.

Paw prints comparable to those of Thylacines found in Tasmania have been found hereaboutsalready, as from my 1982 and 1984 discoveries. Heather and I have casts of these with which to match

with any future tracks we will discover in this wilderness.We know of at least one lair where there could be up to six Thylacines inhabiting the site. This

site is situated deep in a canyon into which paw prints led and was found in 1982. Its location remains atop secret for obvious reasons.

At present I am planning to mount another search in these wilds for further evidence of oursecretive mega-marsupials. Who knows what we may find out there in the coming months!

-0-Next Issue:

More surprises, and of course your valuable reports.Our previous meeting was a huge success and we look forward to seeing another

big roll-up at our next one. There should be some good Skywatches ahead of us uphere at Katoomba, weather permitting.

Meanwhile, theres a lot happening up there at present so,until our next meeting

Watch the Skies!
