Book THE DANETTA CODE The Somerton Man  Was He The Only Man To Die

Download or read book THE DANETTA CODE The Somerton Man Was He The Only Man To Die written by Gordon Cramer and published by Gordon Cramer. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Book 1: THE DANETTA CODE & THE SOMERTON MAN MYSTERY This book contains details of actual events and new evidence uncovered during 10 years of research and investigation. The 1948 Somerton Man Mystery is widely known as Australia’s most enduring Cold Case. Early in the morning of December 1st. 1948, the body of a man was found on Somerton Beach near Glenelg in South Australia. He had died of poisoning. As you are about to find out, there was more than 1 mysterious death in that era, in fact there were three, all died of poisoning, and they were all linked by an equally mysterious code. But first, the Somerton Man Cold Case and despite efforts at the time and since the man has never been identified. However, in May of 2021, the remains of the man were exhumed with the intent of extracting DNA samples which could lead to at least identifying from where he came. At the time of writing this book, results have not been published. In the 1940s, South Australia became Australia's and the UKs research and development centre for all kinds of advanced weaponry from rockets, fuels, electronics to the preparation for testing of an Atom bomb at Woomera. It's also true to say that Uranium and lead were in high demand globally and much of that need was met by the mines and processing facilities in South Australia. Given this background it would come as no surprise to learn that, as ex Detective Sergeant Gerry Feltus author of the Unknown Man book once said, 'The place was wall to wall spies' The question must be asked was the Somerton Man a spy? During years of research and investigation the author has found much in the way of new evidence, evidence that clearly points to espionage and the involvement of intelligence agencies. Concealed codes and clandestine communications examples turned up from the outset starting with a tiny rolled up slip of paper containing the words 'TAMAM SHUD', the last words found in certain editions of The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. The slip was was found hidden in a 'secret' fob pocket in the waistband of the trousers the man was wearing when found on the beach. The ensuing research led to the discovery of more instances, the DANETTA CODE in numerous case documents, secret messages and a British MI6 clandestine communications technique, This evidence clearly points to the Somerton Man being in some way involved in espionage. Add to this mix, the presence in Australia at the time of a highly trained and known Soviet assassin and a fascinating picture emerges. It's intriguing, it’s baffling and to top it off, it’s all true, these are all real events. Are you up for the challenge? Read on...

Book Tam  m Shud  How the Somerton Man   s Last Dance for a Lasting Life Was Decoded    Omar Khayyam Center Research Report

Download or read book Tam m Shud How the Somerton Man s Last Dance for a Lasting Life Was Decoded Omar Khayyam Center Research Report written by Mohammad H. Tamdgidi and published by Ahead Publishing House (imprint: Okcir Press). This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this OKCIR Research Report, hermeneutic sociologist, Khayyami scholar, and founding director of Omar Khayyam Center for Integrative Research (OKCIR), Mohammad H. (Behrooz) Tamdgidi, Ph.D., reports having solved the mystery of the code associated with the so-called “Somerton Man” or “Tamám Shud” case. The mysterious code appearing on the back page of a first edition copy of Edward FitzGerald’s The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam -- found months following the death of The Somerton Man (TSM) in South Adelaide, Australia, on Dec. 1, 1948 -- was a suicide contemplation and planning note he was poetically drafting for himself in the form of a quatrain on the back of his copy of The Rubaiyat, giving a gist of why and how he planned to carry out a deliberately mystery-laden suicide as his last dance for a lasting life. The code was the creative DNA of his suicide plot. It was written in the ‘Tamám Shud’ transliteration style -- in this case not from Persian, but from Arabic with which he must have been familiar, either natively due to coming ancestrally from the ethnically diverse and widely multilingual Russian Caucasus and/or by training and education. In other words, the ‘Tamám Shud’ torn-out piece found in TSM’s fob pocket not only served as a bread crumb lead to his suicide note, it also offered the key to the code’s deciphering. DNA is a self-replicating matter that reproduces the basic structure of a substance. TSM’s ‘code’ offers the DNA of his last dance performance in public hoping of a lasting life, one that was sketched amid his medical suffering. He was reflecting on his life, terminal illness, and expected imminent death, while reading the meanings conveyed about life and death in FitzGerald’s translation of Omar Khayyam’s Rubaiyat -- a work of art that offered TSM a practical and proven example of how one can physically die but endure in human memory and spirit forever. This report mainly focuses on deciphering TSM’s code, but the findings are then used to shed brief new light on one and/or another alternative wider story of what took place in Adelaide in 1948, in the years leading to it, and in the decades thereafter. The report invites readers to rethink the relevance of Omar Khayyam’s poetry to the case, and also asks a pertinent question about another fold of the mystery, that is, why did it take so long to decipher a code that could have actually been decoded much earlier? The Somerton Man or Tamám Shud case has important lessons for us beyond the confines of the personal troubles of a man and those he knew, inviting us to use our sociological imaginations to explore such troubles in relation to the public issues that concern us all beyond the shores of Australia, and beyond the national and disciplinary walls fragmenting our lives, universities, and scientific methods in favor of transcultural and transdisciplinary modes of inquiry. The report ends with a dancing celebration for deciphering the code as a new window to learning the true story and possible identity of the Somerton Man.
