"The Americas have had native groups living there for more than 10,000 years, but Columbus was surely not their first visitors. This book covers a range of cultures who had seemingly been visiting the Americas since long before Columbus. Evidence is explored of potential Roman and Phoenician shipwrecks off the coast of South America through to Celtic and Norse exploration of Northern America. With source materials dating back through millennia, including very recent finds, this book will induce the reader to think about a side of history still readily dismissed by some"--

"The bestselling author of Chariots of the Gods, Erich von Dèaniken, examines the great traditions of mankind, thousands of years old, for signs, traces, messages that point to early contact with extraterrestrial intelligences. The Gods were here. But when will the return? Or have they ever really left? The culmination of long-term research, Enoch and the Return of the Gods argues that we are very much in the minds and eyes of other cosmic life forms and that, as a result, many of the dramatic historical events and remarkable teachings of religious texts should be reinterpreted. Erich von Dèaniken examines the great traditions of mankind, thousands of years old, for signs, traces, messages that point to early contact with extraterrestrial intelligences. The texts of the Bible are at the center of his text-critical interpretations, which pick apart the sense and nonsense of religious views. He also draws on ancient Jewish sagas and legends, reports from early historians, and Indian, Babylonian, and Persian traditions. As always, von Dèaniken finds support for such questions as: Did Adam and Eve witness a UFO? Who was Enoch and did he speak the language of extraterrestrials? What will Judgement Day truly be? Why did extraterrestrials tinker with humanity's DNA? The gods were here, and it is clear their influence remains to this day. This book was first published in 1998 under the title The Return of the Gods. This new edition features a new introduction by the author."--

Throughout history, folklore and mystery, tales have circulated of massive stones being moved through the air effortlessly through the air seemingly sound. Bizarre? Well, yes, it is. That doesn't take away the fact that sound was, and still remains, the key to the construction of the Pyramids of Egypt, Stonehenge, the stone figures of Easter Island, and the massive stones at Baalbek, Lebanon. Were they the work of ancient humans, of equally ancient extra-terrestrials, or of both?HOW ANTIGRAVITY BUILT THE PYRAMIDS delves into such stories and theories as:· A 9th century story of a mysterious papyrus with the power to move large stones at the Giza Necropolis· The Mayan story of the construction of the Pyramid of the Magician said to be overseen by small humanoid who could whistle large stones into place· Native American stories of ancient priests being back to make stones lightRedfern argues it was not literally music and whistling that somehow raised stones the weights of dozens of modern-day cars into the skies above. Such a thing is not possible. But music and whistling have one thing in common: sound. Acoustics. Almost certainly, acoustic levitation was at the heart of these incredible feats.No doubt, and as the centuries passed, the truth of the science behind acoustic levitation was lost and forgotten—and distorted, too—with little more left than fanciful tales of music, whistles, curious papyrus, and strange metal rods that could achieve incredible feats in the air. Today, we are finally starting to get a grasp on this incredible technology, a technology that may have been the work of ancient humans, aliens from faraway worlds – or, perhaps, a combination of the two.
