The genesis of the healing springs !

Die Entstehungsgeschichte der Heilquellen !

 

Once upon a time.... a long time ago !
The genesis of the hot mineral medicinal springs !
As these mineral springs came into being, a long time ago in the history of the earth i.e. approximately 2000 million years back, during the Proterozoicum Era, when the earth formed it's self in the so called "Ur-Gondwana Land". But Gondwana was not still a stable ground. During the Paleozoic age, this giant continent began to crack into three pieces. This means that at the same time, the oldest parts of the Gondwanalands, situated now in Africa, had a serious volcano outbreak 40 million years ago, that left signs in nature up to this days, all around that area. Prior to 20 million years, a powerful earth-crack came into being which completely changed the earth's face by cutting it and separating it although it was vast and wide. This was the time that the Red Sea was born. But the earth-cracks, did not stop and divided the Abyssinian highlands into two portions. This was the time that the famous Rift Valley came into being. From this earth-crust sprung out the hot resources of the Endireen Escape that they are the sources of holy waters that it is said are able to heal any kind of diseases. Approximately 20 million years ago the hot mineral springs flowed out from the ground, known as the Rift Valley springs which are present until today !

 

Es war einmal.... vor langer, langer Zeit !
Die Entstehungsgeschichte der Thermalheilquellen !
Wenn wir in der Erdgeschichte ca. 2000 Millionen Jahre zurückschauen, so formten sich im sogenannten Proterozoikum die Landmassen zu dem Ur-Kontinent Gondwana-Land. Doch Gondwana war noch keine stabile Masse.
Im Paläozoikum schließlich begann dieser Riesenkontinent in 3 Teile zu zerbrechen. Der mittlere und zugleich auch älteste Teil Gondwanalands bildete nun Afrika ! Unvorstellbar große Vulkanausbrüche vor 40 Millionen Jahren kündigten das letzte große Naturschauspiel in dieser Gegend an.
Vor 20 Millionen Jahren entstand durch gewaltige Erdverschiebungen ein Riß in der Erde, der immer breiter wurde. Das Rote Meer war geboren ! Doch der Riß in der Erdkruste ging noch weiter. Der große Ostafrikanische Grabenbruch teilte nun das Abessinische Hochland in zwei Teile. Das berühmte Rift Valley war entstanden.
Durch tiefe Spalten im Fels konnten nun die heißen Quellen aus dem Erdinneren entweichen. Und so sprudeln nun seit ca. 20 Millionen Jahren die Rift Valley Heilquellen zum Wohle der Menschheit !
