If you wish to upset the law that all crows are black, it is enough to prove that one single crow is white."
George McMullen is the author of One White Crow and an intuitive archaeologist and forensic remote viewer who performed archaeological remote viewing for the Alexandria Project. A number of archaeologists have used psychics in their digs, with considerable success. George worked with Dr. Norman Emerson, a prominent archaeologist and professor at the University of Toronto, as well as other archaeologists in Canada, and throughout the USA, Australia, Egypt, Iran, Israel, Europe. Ecuador, Mexico and the Caribbean.
Following the path laid by such "psychic archaeologists", Stephan Schwartz, founder of the "Mobius Group", launched the Alexandria Project. Its objective was to locate nothing less than the ruins of the famous Library of Alexandria, and the tomb of Alexander the Great, also presumed to be in Alexandria. In the early phases of the project, eleven mediums in the U.S. were put to work on maps, and an analysis was made of all the places they found. Their "map dowsing" converged upon three sites. Accompanied by two of the psychics and a team for research and filming, Schwartz left for an onsite investigation in Egypt. One of the psychics was George McMullen, who had earned quite a reputation working with archaeologist Emerson.
In it's time of renown Marea was known for it's sweet wine and famous glass shipped throughout the Mediteranean. Unfortunately by the time the Romans arrived much had changed. The encroachment of the Sahara desert had overcome the land and the grape vines and olive trees had disappeared. Being located near the delta of the Nile river, where it flowed into the Mediteranean, the waters had become too shallow for ships to reach Mearea's docks. The Romans attempted, by building dams, to keep the water level up but did not succeed.
When Stephan Schwartz and George McMullen arrived, Marea was desert. As George relates: "There were three large tels where the villages had been and a Roman road to the stone docks. The water was very shallow. I managed to walk around the docks on the seabed without problems. There were three large stone docks high and dry. Stephan asked me to find a building not yet uncovered by Fazi Faharaini the Eygptian Archeaologist. I led him to the top of the first hill nearby and showed him in the sand where there were walls and a doorway. It had been a room with a tile floor. It was about two feet under the sand to the top of the walls and the walls were about three feet to the ledge where the floor had been. He drove stakes into the ground where I had indicated the walls had been. During the night the Bedouins stole the wood stakes because any lumber was very scarce in the desert. We put stone markers in their place the next morning. They excavated the area and found what I had indicated. They found some tiles, a meeting room, and the building went on to a larger room next to it which we did not work on."
Although this first mission failed to excavate the originally intended sites, it nevertheless demonstrated the soundness of the method: significant archaeological discoveries were achieved while working with talented psychics.
