There is something flat next to 'i t, like an airstrip/runway or a street. There is a plane flying by. There are machinery sounds, churning and cranking. Colors are green, red and a lot, of blue. There is a real dry taste. There is a ta11, pointed structure, with two round/spiral things on ect`i' -i-deThere is a bright rounzd thing. There is a person with a round head, medium-length brown hair, brown eyes, wearing weird clothes of brown and black. Inside the structure are very loud machinery sounds. It, is very crowded with people-and machinery. There are chairs here, all lined up, that look out of place. The many people here are all doing their own thing; working. The place makes me think of a factory. There are a bright lights, but. also dark places. There is a big hole, filled with thick liquid or water, that someone could fall into. The purpose of the structure is "coming home'", things are being moved "from here to there.'. The -sftruct.ure is very large and the air is very heavy here. There is a lot of pressure as if my legs--are being pushed down, or as if the structure is underground with a lot of pressure of gravity pushing it down. There is another airplane flying by.

Muslim minarets rose after the city fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453. Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R001200160008-4
