- 0:031976. Author and researcher Zechariah
- 0:06Sitchin publishes his book, The 12th
- 0:10Planet, introducing his revolutionary
- 0:13interpretation of the Anunnaki deities.
- 0:16After studying Samrian cunioform tablets
- 0:19for 30 years, he asserts that these
- 0:22so-called Samrian gods were in fact
- 0:26extraterrestrials that landed on Earth
- 0:28in Mesopotamia more than 450,000 years
- 0:33ago.
- 0:35According to Sitchin's translations, the
- 0:38Anunnaki both created human beings and
- 0:41also had a part in mankind's downfall
- 0:44when a great flood nearly destroyed all
- 0:47life on earth. But
- 0:51why? What was the purpose of the
- 0:53Anunnaki's earthly
- 0:55visitations? And why did they create the
- 0:57creature known as man?
- 1:01Zechariah Sitchin wrote a number of
- 1:04well-received books on the anarchy which
- 1:06he believed were basically
- 1:08extraterrestrial entities from a planet
- 1:10called Nibiru which he quite
- 1:12controversially believed actually exists
- 1:14in our solar
- 1:17system. His theory was they upgraded the
- 1:20human race and used them as sort of a
- 1:21slave species.
- 1:23Sitchin understood based on his
- 1:26interpretation of the tablets that the
- 1:28mission had to do with the failing
- 1:30atmosphere around the planet Niburu and
- 1:33that when they came they came to mine
- 1:36gold. The Anunnaki had damaged their
- 1:39atmosphere and by using gold they found
- 1:42that they could patch these atmospheric
- 1:44holes becomes the story of our humanity.
- 1:47The Anunnaki literally came to Earth to
- 1:49mine the
- 1:50gold. And when realizing it was such a
- 1:53toil to do so, created us as a worker
- 1:56race to do that for
- 2:01him. Zechariah Sitchin's hypothesis that
- 2:04the Anunnaki came to Earth to mine gold
- 2:07and then created humans to perform the
- 2:10task was both bold and controversial.
- 2:14Needless to say, it was not embraced by
- 2:17mainstream
- 2:18scholars. But many ancient astronaut
- 2:21theorists believe that Sitchin's
- 2:23interpretation of the tablets is not
- 2:25only correct, but also provides
- 2:28compelling evidence that the Anunnaki
- 2:30created mankind.
- 2:34What if the whole Anunnaki story is a
- 2:39global story of a non-human intelligence
- 2:42that was manipulating genes all over the
- 2:45planet that it wasn't just gold, it was
- 2:48a planetary base.
- 2:51The Anunnaki said that they came from
- 2:53the Nibiru and they believe that Nibiru
- 2:56is a star, a gate, and a crossing
- 3:00place. Opening up the possibility that
- 3:02the Anunnaki are actually traveling the
- 3:05stars through stargates and wormholes.

- 3:12northern
- 3:14Iraq. Along the east bank of the Tigress
- 3:17River, opposite the city of Mosul, lie
- 3:21the ruins of the ancient city of
- 3:23Nineveh, a place originally inhabited by
- 3:26the Samrians of
- 3:29Mesopotamia.
- 3:32Here in
- 3:341842, British archaeologist Austin Henry
- 3:37Leard unearthed the ruins of the great
- 3:40library of
- 3:41Azerbanopal, a royal archive containing
- 3:44thousands of clay tablets with cunoifor
- 3:48inscriptions. Dating to 3000 BC, the
- 3:52messages carved into stone are
- 3:54considered to be the world's first
- 3:56written accounts.
- 3:58Samrian tablets are probably one of the
- 4:00oldest uh form of written record that we
- 4:03have. They've been translated and they
- 4:06tell exciting stories about how gods
- 4:09intermingled with human beings and
- 4:10actually had a hand in the creation of
- 4:12human beings. Whether or not it's just
- 4:14mythology or if it's fact, no one really
- 4:19knows. According to interpretations of
- 4:22the Samrian tablets, the gods were
- 4:24called the Anunnaki.
- 4:27What we're looking at here is a Sumerian
- 4:29tablet that actually shows the tree of
- 4:32life flanked by divine beings. You can
- 4:34see here the Anunnaki on each side. We
- 4:37also see the winged disc, a symbolic
- 4:39reference that the Anunnaki had the
- 4:41power of flight. They actually had
- 4:44necklaces with astronomical references,
- 4:47a moon, a star, various symbols which
- 4:50even could be symbolized as a
- 4:51wristwatch.
- 4:53technology being used 6,000 years
- 4:56ago. The written accounts etched into
- 4:58stone suggest the Anunnaki were giant
- 5:01beings standing 8 ft tall who came to
- 5:05Earth in search of gold for their home
- 5:09planet. When the Sumerian gods, the
- 5:11Anunnaki, realized the toll it was
- 5:13taking to mine the gold themselves, they
- 5:16decided to fashion a worker being, a
- 5:18slave to mine the gold for them.
- 5:22And they explain in the Sumerian
- 5:23creation tales that this was an arduous
- 5:26process. So it's very possible that our
- 5:29genetic evolution was a process done by
- 5:32the Anunnaki to create us in their image
- 5:34and after their
- 5:36likeness. They created man according to
- 5:39the Samrian text. They created Adam and
- 5:44Eve. How interesting that the Bible will
- 5:47echo the story but talk about it in
- 5:50terms of
- 5:55God. It's almost like these highly
- 5:57advanced creatures were acting as
- 6:00teachers. Uh and certainly Samrian
- 6:03culture and mythology is full of stories
- 6:06of you know receiving visitations from
- 6:08these mysterious higher entities that
- 6:10you know bestowed wisdom and fantastic
- 6:13ideas and concepts and you know you have
- 6:15to wonder is this just down to myth or
- 6:17was somebody coming down and really
- 6:19trying to give us a push if you like.
- 6:22[Music]
- 6:25Ancient chronicles of sky beings
- 6:27creating human life are common in early
- 6:30cultures found all over the world. But
- 6:33while mainstream scholars often dismiss
- 6:35this evidence, might such tangible
- 6:38historical accounts provide proof of
- 6:41alien intervention in man's evolution as
- 6:44ancient astronaut theorists believe. The
- 6:48Samrians are not the only culture that
- 6:51talks about this. Also in the Quran it
- 6:55says that language was given to us by
- 6:59Allah or
- 7:01God. The Maya Populvu says that language
- 7:04was given to us by the
- 7:07gods. The ancient Egyptian texts are
- 7:10saying the exact same
- 7:13thing. It doesn't matter what ancient
- 7:17culture we look at. They all say the
- 7:20same. that language was a gift from the
- 7:26gods. We should finally come to grips
- 7:29with the idea that extraterrestrials had
- 7:32something to do with our
- 7:38development. Prior to the use of early
- 7:40systems of writing, ancient people carve
- 7:43symbolic communication into stone called
- 7:47petroglyphs. The oldest date to about 10
- 7:50to 12,000 years
- 7:53ago. According to ancient astronaut
- 7:56theorists, petroglyphs located in the
- 7:59American Southwest linked the
- 8:01prehistoric ancestors of the Zouri and
- 8:04Hopi tribes with star beings.
- 8:12The first graphic expressions by humans
- 8:14were petroglyphs. That means symbols or
- 8:17figures scratched into
- 8:19stone. The Hopi Indians, for example,
- 8:22scratched petroglyphs into their rock
- 8:24faces that show people with radiating
- 8:26wreaths, gods that descend from the
- 8:29sky. The Hopi Indians say that these
- 8:32beings are
- 8:34cachings from space who came to Earth in
- 8:37aircraft who are not gods, but who
- 8:40brought them knowledge from another
- 8:41planet.
- 8:44We have the same phenomenon in Europe in
- 8:48Valkamonica. We have it in Asia. We have
- 8:51it in Brazil in
- 8:53Brazil. When we look at the fact that
- 8:56all around the world, we hear similar
- 8:59legends of people from the stars coming
- 9:01down and having a profound impact on the
- 9:03people of this country or that
- 9:05particular culture. all in broadly
- 9:07similar time frames. You know, we're
- 9:09seeing a pattern developing and it's
- 9:11difficult to dismiss that that pattern
- 9:13is suggestive. In our ancient past,
- 9:15creatures came down, interacted with us,
- 9:17and maybe manipulated us to become the
- 9:20people we are
- 9:22[Applause]
- 9:23today. The Lasco caves, southwestern
- 9:28France, discovered in 1940 near the
- 9:31village of
- 9:32Montanyak. This cave complex is covered
- 9:35in Paleolithic paintings dating back
- 9:38more than 17,000
- 9:41years. Anthropologists believe ancient
- 9:44shamans used these subterranean chambers
- 9:47to perform sacred
- 9:50rituals. And curiously, among the many
- 9:54ice age animals that are depicted on the
- 9:56walls, there is a strange creature that
- 9:59has the body of a man and the head of a
- 10:02bird.
- 10:03The technical term for such a creature
- 10:05is a theanthrop and that's from the
- 10:08Greek therion which means wild beast and
- 10:11anthropos which means man. Clearly these
- 10:14are not things that one encounters in
- 10:17everyday life. The imagery of cave art
- 10:21is best explained as the experiences
- 10:24that shamans undergo in a deep state of
- 10:28trance.
- 10:30When they return from the trans
- 10:32state, they then depict on the cave
- 10:35walls the visions that they have seen in
- 10:38this deeply altered state of
- 10:40consciousness.
- 10:46The birdman found in Lasco is
- 10:48reminiscent of one of the Egyptians most
- 10:50important gods, Thoth. It is also
- 10:53consistent with the depiction of the
- 10:55Samrian sky gods, the Anunnaki.
- 10:59But is it mere coincidence that these
- 11:01shamans are encountering the same types
- 11:04of beings while in a trance that the
- 11:06world's earliest civilizations depicted
- 11:08as their
- 11:11gods? In all of these different
- 11:13indigenous cultures around the world,
- 11:15there are remarkable similarities of
- 11:18what types of beings people claim to be
- 11:21meeting when they go out of body.
- 11:24This suggests that in the dream plane
- 11:26and in the shamanic state, there is in
- 11:29fact a real place that we are going and
- 11:32real beings that we are encountering
- 11:34when we get
- 11:35there. This is where the ancient
- 11:38astronaut theory
- 11:39suggests that they were the same
- 11:42teachers, the teachers that went to all
- 11:46the ancient cultures and brought them
- 11:49the basics for what we've accomplished
- 11:52today.
- 11:57But there was a a big noticeable change
- 12:00in human behavior around 40,000 years
- 12:03ago exactly at the time that our
- 12:05ancestors begin to manifest the first
- 12:08amazing uh cave art. But what is clear
- 12:12is that it's not a coincidence that at
- 12:14the moment that the cave art begins, we
- 12:18also witness in the archaeological
- 12:20record a radical change in human
- 12:24[Applause]
- 12:29behavior. Nineveh, Iraq,
- 12:341849. A treasure trove of ancient
- 12:36cunioform texts is uncovered.
- 12:40detailing accounts of the creation of
- 12:42Earth, man, and the lives of the
- 12:48gods. In 1849, Austin Henry Leard made
- 12:52an archaeological expedition to a city
- 12:55of Nineveh, a city that's mentioned in
- 12:57the Bible. And in his excavations, he
- 13:00discovered the palace of Snackb who's
- 13:03well known from the Bible. This really
- 13:05galvanized the interest of the world.
- 13:08Well, 3 years after this, his assistant
- 13:11found the palace of his grandson Asher
- 13:15Banipal on the opposite side of the
- 13:17mount. Now, in both cases, they found
- 13:20archives and together the archives form
- 13:23about 20 to 30,000
- 13:29tablets. Recorded on seven of the
- 13:32tablets is the Babylonian creation myth
- 13:35called the Enuma Elish.
- 13:38[Music]
- 13:39Enumeish was probably composed in the
- 13:4211th century BC, but almost certainly
- 13:45this story goes back to much earlier
- 13:50periods. The tablets tell of a god named
- 13:53Marduk who took blood from the god Kingu
- 13:56and mixed it with clay in order to
- 13:59create the earth's first humans.
- 14:03When the Anunnaki create the model man,
- 14:05that person gets picked up as a story in
- 14:07the Bible and he's called Adam. What I
- 14:10find interesting is that the Bible left
- 14:12out some of the most important details
- 14:14and cut the story short. So the Samrian
- 14:17tablets, the Mesopotamian tablets have
- 14:18the more detailed
- 14:20[Music]
- 14:24versions. According to mainstream
- 14:27scholars, the Enuma Elish is simply an
- 14:30example of an ancient creation
- 14:32myth. But ancient astronaut theorists
- 14:35believe that the epic story is not
- 14:38fiction, but based on
- 14:41fact. Anunnaki is a term that means from
- 14:44heaven to earth they
- 14:45came. So the knowledge that came out
- 14:48from Nineveh is a complete look of a
- 14:50civilization that sprung up out of
- 14:53nowhere.
- 14:55Many of the tablets that were unearthed
- 14:57in Nineveh describe nuances into the
- 15:00actual mindset of the gods, these
- 15:02Anunnaki, and they describe being flesh
- 15:05and blood beings just like
- 15:07us. The Anunnaki themselves were
- 15:12physical beings that came here in giant
- 15:15spaceships that our ancestors thought
- 15:20were some type of divine
- 15:22apparitions. Our ancestors, especially
- 15:25the Samrians, received help. And that
- 15:28help came from nowhere
- 15:30else but up
- 15:35there. According to ancient astronaut
- 15:37theorists, the Enuma Alish vividly
- 15:40describes not mythic gods, but other
- 15:43worldly beings, alien visitors who
- 15:47possessed a highly advanced knowledge of
- 15:49genetics.
- 15:51The Anunnaki began to figure out how
- 15:54they could create a docil worker. So
- 15:56they took genes from a female homminid
- 16:00and after many many trials they figured
- 16:03out that they could blend genes together
- 16:06and create the perfect being.
- 16:10In a sense, what these tablets are
- 16:12really talking about is a genetic
- 16:14engineering and the changing of the DNA
- 16:18within human
- 16:21beings. Clearly, something happened
- 16:25where we went from nothing to all of a
- 16:29sudden coming up with the most
- 16:32incredible of thought
- 16:35models. So, the question then is how was
- 16:38it done? And according to the ancient
- 16:42alien theory, our ancestors were given
- 16:47intelligence by a deliberate change of
- 16:51our DNA by space travelers who came here
- 16:55thousands of years
- 16:58[Applause]
- 17:00ago. From the mysterious statues of
- 17:03Sierra
- 17:04Leon to the Doon tribe of
- 17:08Mali and the Babylonian worship of
- 17:11Deeon to the Japanese stories of
- 17:14dragons and the curious dogu
- 17:18figures. According to ancient astronaut
- 17:20theorists, there are eerie similarities
- 17:23between ancient cultures that indicate
- 17:26they were all visited by the same
- 17:28extraterrestrial
- 17:29beings from Sirius
- 17:33B. If there were beings from the Sirius
- 17:36star
- 17:38system, they may have come for a short
- 17:41period of time. They may have been
- 17:43harvesting metals. They may have been
- 17:45harvesting genetic material. And then
- 17:48they go.
- 17:52But is there any physical
- 17:54evidence? For some, the presence of a
- 17:57chromium sphere inside a statue
- 17:59estimated to be 17,000 years old and
- 18:03ancient figurines that appear to depict
- 18:05spacuits are proof
- 18:08enough. But could there also be actual
- 18:11artifacts from another
- 18:14world? Among the people of Sierra Leon,
- 18:17local legend has it that when they're
- 18:19normally gods fell from heaven, part of
- 18:22the sky turned to stone and rained down
- 18:26with
- 18:27them. These strange blue stones called
- 18:31sky stones have been found with the
- 18:35statues. And at first archaeologists
- 18:37thought, okay, it's just blue stones.
- 18:40But when they analyzed it and they
- 18:42couldn't figure out how these had been
- 18:44made too. Although the people in Sierra
- 18:47Leone felt that they were actually
- 18:49pieces of the blue sky that fell with
- 18:53the
- 18:54normaly. If these mysterious blue stones
- 18:58are really connected to the legend of
- 18:59the sky turning to stone and raining
- 19:02down on the earth with the arrival of
- 19:04the anomaly, what could they be?
- 19:08Some type of protective covering for an
- 19:10alien
- 19:12spacecraft. Pieces of a heat shield
- 19:14perhaps, like the tiles that covered the
- 19:16bottom of the space
- 19:18shuttle? And if so, might further
- 19:21scientific examination of them support
- 19:23the idea that the nomaly were actually
- 19:26extraterrestrial
- 19:27visitors, perhaps from the Syria star
- 19:30system.
- 19:33Seattle, Washington, March 6th,
- 19:382019. In search of further evidence that
- 19:41the Nomaly statues may have an
- 19:43extraterrestrial connection, ancient
- 19:45astronaut theorist David Childress has
- 19:48arranged to meet up with sky stone
- 19:50collector and researcher Jared Collins.
- 19:53Wow. Jared has in his possession a
- 19:56number of the mysterious blue stones
- 19:58that were found near the statues.
- 20:02Jared has been collecting sky stones
- 20:04since he first heard about them in
- 20:082013. He became fascinated by their
- 20:10enigmatic nature, betraying neither
- 20:13obvious mineral nor man-made origin.
- 20:18So, how was it that these stones were
- 20:20actually discovered in modern times?
- 20:21This was actually discovered in 1991 by
- 20:25a man named David Lebet.
- 20:27He was in Sierra Leone on a mining
- 20:29concession looking for golden diamonds.
- 20:31And when he was having his crew dig,
- 20:36occasionally these stones would appear.
- 20:38And interestingly, David went to the
- 20:41village chief to ask if he'd ever seen
- 20:44any of these stones before. And the
- 20:46chief said that when these stones are
- 20:48found, large amounts of golden diamonds
- 20:50usually follow shortly thereafter.
- 20:54What do other geologists say about
- 20:56stones like this? Are they able to
- 20:58identify them? We've sent these down to
- 21:0012 different labs. There is not one
- 21:02piece of consensus in here. Everybody
- 21:04has a different opinion. We still don't
- 21:06know actually if these are natural or
- 21:08man-made. So maybe it's from another
- 21:09planet. I don't know. I really wish I
- 21:12did.
- 21:1630 mi south of Gallup, New
- 21:19Mexico, lies the Pueblo of Zouri.
- 21:26Sheltered from the desolate high plains,
- 21:29this adobe city is home to the Zouri
- 21:31Indians, one of the oldest indigenous
- 21:33tribes in North
- 21:36America. They have inhabited this land
- 21:38for almost 2,000 years and have
- 21:41protected their secrets even longer.
- 21:47The Zouri are a very interesting culture
- 21:49in that they're one of the few cultures
- 21:51that really have not opened up uh to the
- 21:53rest of the world about their star
- 21:55knowledge traditions. Most of this type
- 21:57of information is is very closely held
- 22:00uh by the the natives. And um I I really
- 22:03find it uh very intriguing that this is
- 22:05the time uh period in history where now
- 22:08we're starting to learn more and more
- 22:10about their star knowledge.
- 22:16Much of the Zouri people's history is
- 22:18etched in the rocks in the New Mexico
- 22:27desert. Tribal elder Clifford Mahudi and
- 22:31archaeologist Dan Simpio have studied
- 22:34the Zouri secret history firsthand.
- 22:37They've collected stories passed down
- 22:39through generations that are rooted in
- 22:41the belief that the trib's creators and
- 22:44protectors are supernatural beings from
- 22:46the sky.
- 22:49This one's kind of interesting here. I
- 22:51would imagine it was created in last
- 22:54century, but on this design you can see
- 22:57the star figure.
- 23:00Celestial images oftent times are
- 23:02depicted in a lot of our cultural
- 23:04petetroglyphs and this is one of them
- 23:06where it depicts the star. It could be
- 23:09the supernova of the crab
- 23:13nebula. Our zone mythology in the prayer
- 23:17system and the
- 23:19ritualistic protocols talk about these
- 23:22people that came over here and told us
- 23:25how to actually live our lives as being
- 23:27sky people.
- 23:33If you listen to a lot of religious
- 23:35chants and songs and prayers, that's all
- 23:38they talk about. They're talking about
- 23:39space. They're talking about out there
- 23:42in the universe where they came from.
- 23:44So, they depict it on a rock wall here.
- 23:46But the actual meaning of it is
- 23:48somewhere more profound and more complex
- 23:51than that.
- 23:54These drawings are thought to have been
- 23:57created around 1200 BC. Yet they appear
- 24:00to depict modern space travelers and
- 24:02their
- 24:06vehicles. If you move back a little bit,
- 24:09you can see another figure
- 24:12here. It has a dome, has eyes. Uh
- 24:16there's something coming down and a nose
- 24:19like a nose through the nose but it kind
- 24:21of flares out. I think it was something
- 24:23to do with the ancient ones when they
- 24:26saw something they took as much
- 24:28description of it to put it on there. Of
- 24:31course, it's not going to be exactly
- 24:32what they saw, but that's as best as
- 24:34they can do for something that they saw.
- 24:38With all petroglyphs and and things like
- 24:41that, I mean, they're up to
- 24:42interpretation. Sometimes they're just
- 24:45doodlings of people, but other times
- 24:47they may well be actual descriptions and
- 24:50and depictions of some kind of god from
- 24:54outer space, some ancient astronaut. And
- 24:58when you go around say like the Zonyi
- 25:00PBLO, I mean, that's what they'll tell
- 25:02you those petetroglyphs are. Even the
- 25:05Zunnies themselves call them the
- 25:07spacemen.
- 25:10This one seems to have two legs coming
- 25:12out like that. And it has a broad
- 25:16diamond shaped body. Um, there probably
- 25:19was a bitter head that chipped off here.
- 25:22That's very different looking than
- 25:24humans are.
- 25:26Now, usually they're called UFOs, but in
- 25:30the Zuni way, we've always been taught
- 25:33that they're the keepers of the upper
- 25:35world, which means space. other sky
- 25:38people, beings that are of the
- 25:41extraterrestrial
- 25:42origin. And this is still within our
- 25:45mythology and our religious practices
- 25:51[Applause]
- 25:53today. Valkam Monica, Italy, June 13th,
- 25:582019.
- 26:00Ancient astronaut theorist William Henry
- 26:03has traveled to this UNESCO World
- 26:05Heritage site to investigate the area's
- 26:08mysterious petroglyphs. Hi, I'm William.
- 26:11Hi, I'm Luca. Nice to meet you. Joining
- 26:13him is Luca Garelli, the head of the
- 26:16Valkan Monica Historical and
- 26:18Anthropological Society. This place is
- 26:21massive. Yeah, it's very big. And the
- 26:25rock car covers all that area. Are you
- 26:28ready for a hike? I'm ready. Let's go.
- 26:30Let's go.
- 26:32I'm here at Valcommonica because it is a
- 26:35treasure trove of images from the
- 26:37ancient world that have been well
- 26:38documented and studied by scholars. They
- 26:41don't agree on the meaning of the
- 26:42images, but some of them are very
- 26:44open-minded to the ancient astronaut
- 26:47theory. Luca leads William to an area
- 26:50with a panel of ancient petetroglyphs
- 26:52that appear strikingly familiar to
- 26:54modern eyes.
- 26:58Period. Wow. What we have here? We have
- 27:01this one. This figure. Oh, look at that.
- 27:05The spaceman. Spaceman. Exactly. Look at
- 27:08the helmet. Out. Look at the helmet.
- 27:10Right. It's like he's glowing.
- 27:13Yeah. And the communion rose. The
- 27:16communion rose. It's a strange
- 27:19mysterious symbol with uh nine
- 27:22dots was made probably of the first
- 27:25millennium before Christ. Wow.
- 27:29Archaeologists call this mysterious
- 27:31object the communion rose because of its
- 27:34flower-like shape. While its exact
- 27:36meaning is lost to history, some believe
- 27:39it to be a religious symbol or
- 27:42representation of the movement of the
- 27:44stars. But ancient astronaut theorists
- 27:47suggest it might also depict something
- 27:50else. The vessel that brought these
- 27:52helmeted figures to Valkam
- 27:56Monica. Look at that. That looks like a
- 27:58spaceship. It's like you'd look up in
- 28:00the sky and you would see this kind of
- 28:02twirling, spinning ship in the
- 28:06sky. It seems to me just looking at it,
- 28:09they're trying to talk about beings
- 28:12coming from other worlds, maybe to this
- 28:14place. It could be an explanation. Tell
- 28:17me about that five-pointed
- 28:19star. We have a lot of fivepoint star
- 28:22here on this rock. Mhm. But we don't
- 28:26know what they meaning when they did
- 28:28this particular geometric shape.
- 28:31Sometimes the the stars mean energy like
- 28:34energy from the stars would come to this
- 28:36place where star beings would come to
- 28:38this place. Yeah, it could be an
- 28:40interpretation. We have a lot of mystery
- 28:42about the meaning of the engraving here
- 28:45in Black Monica. We have a different
- 28:48motivation, religious, mythological and
- 28:51also describing events. Okay. So this is
- 28:54like a newspaper. Then it says this was
- 28:57in the sky above us at some point and
- 28:59this spaceman came down and maybe met
- 29:03the communion people. It's could be.
- 29:07According to ancient stories, the nearby
- 29:09city of Trin was founded by a character
- 29:12from Greek mythology called Fatan who
- 29:15came to Earth from the stars.
- 29:17Legend states that Turin was founded by
- 29:20the god Fighton, who is a son of the sun
- 29:23god Helios. And in the myth of Phyon, we
- 29:26learned the story of how he descended to
- 29:29Earth in a fiery
- 29:31chariot, perhaps crashing into Mount
- 29:36Mousini. This also led to something
- 29:38fortuitous because he brought gifts to
- 29:41this place. He had great skills, was a
- 29:45metallurgist and taught this to the
- 29:47local
- 29:50people. When we look at myths such as
- 29:52the myth of Feton, here is really the
- 29:56story of a
- 29:58UFO landing on a mountain and
- 30:01interacting with the
- 30:04locals. When we look behind this myth of
- 30:07Baton, perhaps this is what we're also
- 30:09seeing at Belmonica.
- 30:11I think given the connection with the
- 30:14spacemen that are etched into the rock,
- 30:16we have to be open to the possibility
- 30:18that what the ancient artist is trying
- 30:20to portray is something that he actually
- 30:22saw in the sky, something coming out of
- 30:24the heavens.
- 30:27[Applause]
- 30:28[Music]
- 30:31Mali in northwest
- 30:33Africa. Deep in a remote valley live the
- 30:36Doon people who are the descendants of a
- 30:39nomadic tribe that settled here around
- 30:411,000
- 30:43AD. Just like Aenadan's followers, the
- 30:46Doon had been forced to leave Egypt
- 30:49because of religious persecution.
- 30:53The Dogs lame a very long and ancient
- 30:56tradition and in my opinion maintain
- 31:00some of the ancient Egyptian traditions
- 31:04and myths that have been carried on
- 31:06right into the present
- 31:09age. Parts of ancient Egypt may not have
- 31:12died. They were carried on to this day
- 31:16among the Doon.
- 31:21But what exactly are their
- 31:23beliefs? Doan mythology holds that the
- 31:26sky god Amma created the first living
- 31:29creature known as Namo. The legend also
- 31:33says that shortly after his creation,
- 31:36Namo multiplied into several parts, one
- 31:39of which rebelled against Amma. Amma
- 31:43responded by destroying him and
- 31:45scattering his ashes throughout the
- 31:47world.
- 31:51According to the Doon myths, a god gave
- 31:54them this knowledge. He descended from
- 31:56the
- 31:57sky in an arc surfing on fire and landed
- 32:00in a
- 32:05storm. Still today, Doon celebrates a
- 32:10festival in the honor of Namo and that
- 32:14visitation that occurred in the remote
- 32:17past.
- 32:19How do we know this? For this festival,
- 32:22they have wooden masks that date back to
- 32:27a very long time ago when this festival
- 32:32[Music]
- 32:38began. Doon masks tell the mystic
- 32:40stories of their
- 32:42ancestors. This is a sculpture of the
- 32:44creator. They call him Amma.
- 32:48He's embracing the
- 32:50universe. This is how they pass on
- 32:52information from generation to
- 32:54generation by stories carved in
- 32:59[Music]
- 33:06masks. But could Namo have been a real
- 33:09person?
- 33:11Some see eerie similarities between the
- 33:13Doon's legend and the story of the
- 33:16mysterious pharaoh
- 33:18Aenatan. Aenatan believed he was
- 33:21directly descended from the sun god
- 33:23Autton. Namo was said to have been
- 33:26created by the sky deity
- 33:28Amma. Is it a coincidence that both
- 33:31cultures although thousands of miles
- 33:34apart shared mythical tales of beings
- 33:37coming from the
- 33:38skies? and both Namo and Akenatan were
- 33:42depicted with elongated
- 33:44heads. Is it possible that these legends
- 33:47were based on real events?
- 33:55The Doon dwell in the central plateau
- 33:57region of
- 33:59Banyagara. Their knowledge is centuries
- 34:01old and their priests have been sharing
- 34:03it with chosen individuals only.
- 34:09In the 1920s, French anthropologist
- 34:12Greel and ethnologist Deerland visited
- 34:15the tribe and were invited to share
- 34:16their
- 34:19[Music]
- 34:20secrets. But one secret stood out. The
- 34:24Doon claimed that their god Amma came
- 34:27from a specific star in the Sirius
- 34:30constellation. The same place where the
- 34:33ancient Egyptians believed their god
- 34:35Osiris was
- 34:37born. This star, which modern
- 34:39astronomers refer to as Sirius B, the
- 34:43Doon called
- 34:45Potolo. But what baffles experts is that
- 34:48the star is so far from Earth, it's
- 34:50impossible to see with the naked eye.
- 34:55I was very intrigued by this, by the
- 34:57way. I mean uh the doggon should not
- 35:00have known about the existence of this
- 35:02star. Sirius is the second nearest star
- 35:05from our solar system. It's eight light
- 35:07years away. In fact, it's not even
- 35:09visible with standard telescopes. It was
- 35:12first seen literally seen and
- 35:14photographed in
- 35:171970s. Modern science has corroborated
- 35:20that Sirius B does indeed exist. Problem
- 35:24is, the Doon knew about this before
- 35:29modern science corroborated it. I mean,
- 35:33that's
- 35:36spooky. Measurements taken with the
- 35:39Hubble telescope in 2003 have confirmed
- 35:42that Sirius B is what's known as a white
- 35:46dwarf or a partially burnt out star with
- 35:49extremely dense mass.
- 35:52Although it is smaller in size than
- 35:54Earth, it's estimated to weigh eight
- 35:57times as much as our
- 35:59sun. But how did the Doon acquire this
- 36:02ancient knowledge of astronomy that
- 36:05seems to be centuries more advanced than
- 36:07that of modern
- 36:10science? The mystery is how did this
- 36:13story get passed on down generations?
- 36:16If the story came from a time before
- 36:17astronomers knew there was a companion
- 36:19star to Sirius which can't be seen with
- 36:21the human eye.
- 36:24This is the Doon symbol for Sirius. When
- 36:28you move it around, you can see an orbit
- 36:30around the center marked by Sirius A.
- 36:33Sirius B circles around it. So it is a
- 36:36circular system. This sign is
- 36:38practically an astronomical model that
- 36:41the Doon could not have invented because
- 36:43only Sirius A is
- 36:45visible. Sirius B and C are
- 36:49invisible. However, their description of
- 36:51the orbit is
- 36:53correct. One assumption is that this god
- 36:56Namo who brought them this knowledge
- 36:59could have been an extraterrestrial
- 37:00intelligence.
