Hancock Graham. Magicians of the Gods. The Forgotten Wisdom of Earth's Lost Civilization

New York: Thomas Dunne Books, 2015.
Качество: изначально электронноеThe author has penned an excellent sequel, equal to, or greater than the original "Fingerprints"! Mr. Hancock delves into and investigates the most recent evidence to further substantiate his theory, or hypothesis. This being that not only was there a forgotten, or lost advanced civilization, but that it was world-wide in its scope, and there is a message for us, here today, delivered through the ages!
GH investigates this relatively new archaeological site, with its age old mysteries carefully preserved by the ancients. Here Graham not only confronts the discovery, and its message, but the discoverer as well (K. Schmidt). There are similarities unearthed, and some left or purposely re-Earthed, that very well may coincide with other Megalithic sites around the globe.
Deluge. Once again the author investigates this phenomena, armed with, and uncovering the most recent evidence that leads to the destruction of this advanced society, and why their message was left to us in stone.
Archaeoastronomy is investigated in more depth here, to substantiate the timing of the destruction which may have been caused, or aggravated by meteors, asteroids, or pieces of comets, that occurred sometime around 9,500 - 11,500 BC. These astronomically aligned sites point to the time this happened, and very well may again.
Similiarities. These ancient sites all possess certain common features, such as Animal-human hybrid depictions, or reliefs, and certain figures are all carrying a very similar item. This coupled with the common exact precision of their construction, all point to a common intelligence at work here.
Mr. Hancock covers all this, and also gives the human touch with the accounts of his travels, in this highly readable volume. This is a very well rounded effort, and care is given by the author not to be repetitive, or re-cover material from his previous works. This is a highly recommended read, and may well be a sequel superior to the first.
