Geoglyphs of Cydonia: The Creation Story on the Surface of Mars

• Identifies over a dozen zoomorphic structures on the Martian surface, each exhibiting anatomical accuracy across multiple NASA imaging datasets

• Reveals deep parallels between Martian geoglyphic imagery and the sacred bird and deer symbolism of the Maya Popol Vuh, Aztec codices, Nazca Lines, and North American effigy mound traditions

• Integrates visual art methodology, cross-cultural archaeology, avian and deer biology, and planetary science to build a case for intentional design on the Martian surface

The surface of Mars encodes the same mythological language spoken by the world’s oldest civilizations. Artist and researcher George J. Haas presents two decades of investigation into a cluster of formations in the Cydonia region—formations that are not random geology, he argues, but a purposefully designed complex of avian and deer geoglyphs hiding in plain sight near the famous Face on Mars.

Drawing on high-resolution imagery from NASA’s Mars Odyssey, Mars Global Surveyor, and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, Haas conducts a forensic field survey of each geoglyph, identifying anatomical features confirmed across multiple imaging systems. He anchors each discovery in terrestrial evidence, from the Popol Vuh’s sacred bird and deer mythology to the vast assemblage of zoomorphic structures found throughout North and South America.

The Geoglyphs of Cydonia presents a methodical, interdisciplinary journey into these Martian formations and shows how they reflect a symbolic tradition shared across civilizations, challenging you to reconsider the boundaries of archaeology, planetary science, and human origins.
