Professor Winwood has confirmed that he believes that the central sapphire-like pyramid within the golden band, may contain information that has been stored within it. "It wouldn't be much different to how information is stored on current-day microchips," he said. "It is a known fact that crystals do have the ability to hold an electronic charge. We have detected an electro-magnetic energy field around the medallion. If you look into the hole at the back you can see through the pyramid to what appears to be fine gridlines, just beneath its outer casing. I expect that it will take some kind of electrical pulse to activate it. It may have to be opened first."

At this stage the researchers who found identical medallions at various locations around the world, have yet to confirm that they've been able to open theirs.

The professor is inclined to believe that the star system within the medallion does include our own Sun. "There has been much debate in recent years about the fact that some researchers believe our solar system is in the process of entering something called the Photon Band," he said. "It has been put forward that this is a band of intensified photon light, that comes from the centre of our Galaxy. Could this be the golden band beneath the crystal dome? Twice within a 26,000 year cycle, our solar system apparently passes through this band of light, taking about 2000 years to do so each time. It has also been suggested that the frequency of this light will create a planetary pole reversal thereby stopping all electronics from working, and even affect our brains function. How this will manifest itself, I do not exactly know, but I suspect it will have taken place by the ending of the Mayan Calendar on 22 December 2012."

"The medallion depicts a central blue star and seven other stars within a spiralling-like orbit around it," said Professor Winwood. "I do not as yet know how this relates to our solar system, however I do believe that answers will be forthcoming."

There have been thousands of emails flooding in from all over the world, putting forward suggestions about the meaning of the medallion. Some have proposed that:

A] The symbols are similar to proto-European markings from an early period of Scottish culture, also being compared to early Bulgarian and Mongolian cultures.

B] A musical "tone" may activate the medallion.

C] The medallion is the key to the Hall of Records as prophesied by Edgar Cayce.

D] The crosses represent the balance between the Left and Right hemispheres of the brain, and that the activation of the medallion will stimulate the pituitary gland and dormant DNA, allowing the wearer to become super-conscious.

E] The medallion is more likely from the time of Lemuria, rather than Atlantis.

F] The blue pyramid is a miniature depiction of a Blue Star Crystal Pyramid still to be discovered beneath the sands of Egypt.

G] The seven crosses are the Seven Sisters (stars) of the Pleiades system.

H] The golden band is a symbolic representation of the Photon Band.

I] The blue pyramid is the star Polaris or, Vega of Lyra.

J] The symbols are ancient astrological constellations.

If the professor's analysis is correct, it would seem that an ancient culture did indeed have knowledge of galactic cycles beyond our current understanding.
