Wilhelm de Hevesy was the first academic in 1932 to consider that there is a link between Rongorongo and the Indus Valley script from India. He claimed that as many as forty different symbols could be correlated between the two different scripts.

This finding proved that the two civilizations were chronologically separated by more than 2,000 years (Ancient

“Respected Hebrew dictionaries, like the Brown, Driver, Briggs lexicon, give a number of meanings for the word yom depending upon context. One of the passages they give for yom‘s meaning an ordinary day happens to be Genesis chapter 1. The reason is obvious. Every time the word yom is used with a number, or with the phrase “evening and morning’, anywhere in the Old Testament, it always means an ordinary day.

I am Socrates. It will probably be a surprise to you that I knew next to nothing, because I suppose, my name has always been mentioned as being pre-eminent among philosophers and it would be reasonable to draw the conclusion that I was very learned.

The truth is that I really knew very little.

Therefore, the lengths¯( HE), ¯EX, ¯AG, and ¯GN must be 6 – x. The exact value of the perimeter of HEXAGN can be expressed as a - b√c, thus I added all the sides of HEXAGN in terms of x. This was because the lengths of ¯AR, ¯XR, ¯SH, and ¯SN were still unknown, but it must be true that x stand for a positive integers due to a, b, and c being positive

Unlike the other two authors, this author believes that discoveries are not relevant until they are fully solved and uncovered. As suggested by the article,” But the island still has many secrets.
