Weird News: Ancient Yemeni Crypt Uncovered

Wednesday, October 27, 2010


Tucked away somewhere in Yemen, not far from the otherworldly sites of Irem and a city whose name is lost to history, comes this magnificent find. The numerous discoveries uncovered in the Middle East proves that H.P. Lovecraft was a better archeological speculator than anyone ever knew. Had he been in a different mindset, he might have concentrated more of his Mythos and Dunsany driven pieces in other parts of the ancient world: Roman Europa, China, or Australia. But none of these places would have had coughed up the archeological discoveries in recent decades that seem nearly Lovecraftian in nature. In the end, Lovecraft had a keen historical sense, and a futurist's ability to foresee what might come later.

All that's missing at this point (or is perhaps covered up by the Powers That Be) is news about finding a tattered book bound in human skin in these ruins. Or a translation of the alien looking scripts that adorn these walls, which might contain names like Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth, Hastur, or Dagon.
