In my opinion, for the Hittite one, you must search an Ea & Enlil representation (annunakis):

 		And the final box on Project Prometheus will soon be filled with this.

I feel kinda left out. Project Prometheus/Weyland Investors was supposed to be an ARG/viral campaign, and it had potential, but now they're just closing it down with those three images. :

Yeahhhh! Not that hard really.

When I turned the temperature down to "0"...the word "GENESIS" appears.

I did a google search, and came up with a NASA program that sent out a spaceship/satellite to collect solar wind samples and bring them back to earth.

Hhmmmmm, bring them back to earth? Sounds like maybe Weyland and company is planning a surprise party back here on earth for a little sample of you know who!!

have you tried putting the thermostat to zero for all other rooms to see if any additional words pop up? the word 'Genesis' seems vague and can also refer to the genesis of fire, aka the legend of the titan Prometheus or the genesis of humankind...

Likely a total fabrication as opposed to alterations of known iconography.

There are several problems with "ISLE OF SKYE 35000+ BCE" 35,000 BCE (sic) is lifted from upper limit of radiocarbon dating, 35,000 BP, for the Chauvet Cave paintings in France. Before Present (BP) is used in archeological prehistoric dating where the identity of the people is unknown. Before Common Era (BCE) is used to date known human civilizations. Generally, the British Isles region was entombed under miles of glacial ice during the period. No evidence of human habitation yet exists in the Isle of Skye earlier than 7000 BCE.

Holloway actually says "cave paintings from France..." in the UK trailer while the Isle of Skye painting is shown, but there is corresponding pictogram from France. Although the Skye painting shows similar horned animals and the layered horses that are the most famous of all Chauvet paintings. Lastly, by watching Werner Herzog's documentary about Chauvet, the paintings are notable for the absence of depictions of human figures. This seems to be deliberate and may have ceremonial superstitious connotations. Animals, yes. The people who hunt animals, no. Instead there are many hand prints and an almost Egyptian like goddess figure with a bull's head.

In the med lab if you turn the lights off but keep the lights on for the med pod you see the word apocalypse written on the floor to the left.

Quote:
The history is based in the Greek myth of Prometheus, a Titan punished by Zeus, for having stolen the fire to the gods to share with mortals; according to this mythical episode, Prometheus started the civilization and birth the idea of sacrifice. Scott retakes the idea of Greek genesis and understand it as the human Apocalypse, an end that has taken centuries to encounter its tragical destiny.



I got this from http://www.fahrenheitmagazine.com/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=4192:prometheus-el-regreso-de-ridley-scott&lang=en. We can start seeing the relation now...

 		You're right, antovolk. Maybe it's not the end of the ARG yet, despite the wrap up made to this phase.

 		Project Prometheus images and QR.
So... I went back to the suggestion from someone that there is broken code in the images that were just released, and if play with the levels in Photoshop or some other photo manipulation software there is definitely something there.. as illustrated by someone quite a while ago, my apologies to whoever it was that figured that out.

Does anyone know anything about QR codes and/or piecing them together if they are split apart? (Other than what I started and don't have time to do today which is copy and pasting rows and columns of code and trying to build something out of it)

Anybody have thoughts on it?
