I'm reading it right now. I've promised a friend to do so. Anyone else read it? What did you think of it?
So far I don't think it contradicts anything in the Bible. I'm soon at Tablet #3.
Yeah, I've started from the beginning reading the Bible (again) as well. It has been such a long time since last.
"... 445,000 years ago, astronauts from another planet came to (the) Earth in search of gold ...". How old is the homo sapiens?

I watch a lot of this Ancient Aliens stuff. I think there is something in it.
You might enjoy a couple of vids from that youtube channel

Happy Easter everyone🐇🥚(before you say, I am aware of the Eostre myth)
I have read some commentary on Sitchins book & offer this quote:-
It is written in the style of ancient Mesopotamian prose, giving one the feeling that this is the real thing; lost epics that explain everything. Like I said, this is a dangerous game Sitchin is playing by moving from a science-based approach to a literary one. I remember struggling with Latin at school, with its subject-object-verb format and lack of definite articles. This ancient prose of Sitchin’s isn’t quite so daunting, but the format takes a bit of getting used to. Occasionally, a modern word will creep in to the text (like ‘diaper’ for instance, which is American, and hardly ‘ancient’)

The human being is a very illogical creature I must say, who jumps to conclusions based on single findings.
For instance, first they thought humans originated from eastern Africa. But then they found bones in Morocco, and changed the theory.
But what if the start was in fact on Greenland and the traces were all wiped out? Or if the species were all implanted from outer space, and still are - since we after all are all aliens. An ongoing process. (Like the one Nathan's talkin' about.)
Created.

How would that explain the genetic links between us & flies

Nah not for me. And wouldn't choose it as a first dip into the subject. Not read this but done enough looking into the Sumerians and the Annunaki and such to know that Sitchin should be taken with a pinch of salt. His translations don't stand up.. not verified, corroborated nor validated. It's a fanciful dead end in terms of real history imo. File with Von Daniken.
Give me the Emerald Tablets of Thoth/Hermes and Atlantis any day of tbe week.
Or even our very own Code of Malmoed Dunvallo, the Tuatha Di Dannon and all that.
