01:00:06,380 --> 01:00:11,380
I just want to list enduring questions that we can ask as a child.
00:22.120 --> 00:26.440
That's a picture of me, that darling little child when I was five years old.
00:26.440 --> 00:30.440
And one of the questions I remember asking this, mommy where did I come from?
00:30.440 --> 00:33.940
I grew up in a small little mountain town in East Tennessee.
00:33.940 --> 00:35.440
We were very strict with Southern Baptist.
00:35.440 --> 00:39.440
So as you can imagine, the answer I got came right out of Genesis.
00:39.440 --> 00:42.440
And the answer was honey, you were created by God.
00:42.440 --> 00:45.440
And I accepted that for a long time.
00:45.440 --> 00:49.440
And the human race also accepted that answer for a long time.
00:49.440 --> 00:51.440
We didn't question our origins.
00:51.440 --> 00:54.440
We got all of our learning from the Bible for many centuries.
00:54.440 --> 01:00.440
So no one questioned where we came from until about as a species about the mid 1800s,
01:00.440 --> 01:02.440
people began asking where we came from.
01:02.440 --> 01:06.440
And the answer then became evolution, Darwin.
01:06.440 --> 01:11.440
And if anybody's been following the debate in the last couple of years very closely,
01:11.440 --> 01:16.440
and this is not a Bible thumper speaking, I haven't thumped the Bible in many years.
01:16.440 --> 01:20.440
There's actually an ongoing scientific debate in academic circles
01:20.440 --> 01:25.440
as to whether evolution and Darwin has any merit today.
01:25.440 --> 01:28.440
If you see me after this, I can tell you some interesting books and articles to read,
01:28.440 --> 01:30.440
but I won't go into it.
01:30.440 --> 01:38.440
I'd like to suggest there may be a third explanation about where we as humans came from.
01:38.440 --> 01:44.440
My topic takes us back to the mid 1800s.
01:44.440 --> 01:47.440
There was a fellow by the name of Heinrich Schliemann.
01:47.440 --> 01:52.440
At that time there was no such thing as archaeologists and anthropologists.
01:52.440 --> 01:54.440
It was not a science yet.
01:54.440 --> 01:55.440
People did dig up stuff.
01:55.440 --> 01:58.440
They'd dig up dinosaur bones and drag them home.
01:58.440 --> 02:02.440
People would dig up pot shards from ancient cultures and not realize what they were.
02:02.440 --> 02:04.440
They wouldn't catalog them or categorize them.
02:04.440 --> 02:07.440
They just put them on their mantelpieces.
02:07.440 --> 02:14.440
The formalized study of anthropology and archaeology didn't come about until after Schliemann.
02:14.440 --> 02:18.440
He dug up Troy in Turkey, Anatolia at the time.
02:18.440 --> 02:24.440
His success at finding Troy, which was a mythological city as far as most people were concerned,
02:24.440 --> 02:29.440
led other people to create the sciences of anthropology and archaeology.
02:29.440 --> 02:35.440
It set off a firestorm, people searching all over the ancient world, Rome, Egypt,
02:35.440 --> 02:42.440
but most importantly, Mesopotamia, because it had biblical connections.
02:42.440 --> 02:45.440
To bring up a map of Mesopotamia, this is in the news right now.
02:45.440 --> 02:48.440
This is the area we now know of as Iraq and Iran.
02:48.440 --> 02:52.440
If you watched the news last night, you probably heard Iraq and Iran mentioned.
02:52.440 --> 02:54.440
This is ancient Mesopotamia.
02:54.440 --> 03:00.440
As archaeologists began digging, they went progressively.
03:00.440 --> 03:05.440
They found the cities of Kish and Nippur.
03:05.440 --> 03:10.440
They were astonished to find these cities that had been referred to in the Bible,
03:10.440 --> 03:15.440
the city of Ur, where Abraham supposedly came from in the Hebrew Bible.
03:15.440 --> 03:22.440
What they had actually found was the most ancient civilization of all, ancient Sumer.
03:22.440 --> 03:32.440
Sumer grew up about 6,000, hit its height around 6,000 years ago, 4,000 BC.
03:32.440 --> 03:36.440
They found thousands of these little clay tablets, hundreds of thousands, I should say.
03:36.440 --> 03:39.440
They're so common, you can even find them on eBay.
03:39.440 --> 03:42.440
I have some authentic clay tablets in my personal collection.
03:42.440 --> 03:47.440
I paid a couple hundred dollars for them, and I have a piece of history that goes back 4,000 years.
03:47.440 --> 03:55.440
It had this odd little cipher on them that came to be known as cuneiform.
03:55.440 --> 04:01.440
They were written, holding just a little patty of river clay with a wedge stylus.
04:01.440 --> 04:08.440
They would fire them in a kiln, and these clay tablets were used to cover everything,
04:08.440 --> 04:17.440
contracts, marriages, divorces, bills of sale, anything that had to be recorded in civilization
04:17.440 --> 04:19.440
would be recorded on clay tablets.
04:19.440 --> 04:21.440
They noticed one other thing.
04:21.440 --> 04:27.440
When Rawlinson finally broke the code and was able to interpret these clay tablets,
04:27.440 --> 04:32.440
they found that in many, many of the clay tablets, they referred to gods.
04:32.440 --> 04:36.440
I want to point out little G, not a capital G.
04:36.440 --> 04:43.440
Many gods, and they said that these gods were present in their lives, that they lived among them.
04:43.440 --> 04:50.440
They flew in the skies, they lived in that ziggurat temple up on the hill, and they knew their personalities,
04:50.440 --> 04:55.440
and they talked about them as if they were real people, and I'm going to get into that a little bit more.
04:55.440 --> 04:58.440
These are some more clay tablets.
04:58.440 --> 05:04.440
This is what one of the gods looked like. This is from a Assyrian wall.
05:04.440 --> 05:08.440
Now, I'll quickly go through a couple of other clay tablets.
05:08.440 --> 05:11.440
There was no uniform size or shape.
05:11.440 --> 05:17.440
Let me point out this one on the lower left, the beer allocation tablet.
05:17.440 --> 05:21.440
The Sumerians loved their beer. In fact, they invented beer.
05:21.440 --> 05:33.440
In fact, the Sumerians, or out of the Sumerian culture, came nearly all of the firsts that we regard as necessary for our culture.
05:33.440 --> 05:38.440
Another means of communication was a thing called a cylinder seal.
05:38.440 --> 05:45.440
If any of you signed a check in the past week, if you're wondering why just by signing a check that makes it a legal document,
05:45.440 --> 05:47.440
well, that goes back to Sumer also.
05:47.440 --> 05:56.440
They were the first people to instigate the use of making a unique mark on a document in this fact, in this point, a clay document, by rolling a cylinder seal.
05:56.440 --> 06:00.440
I'm wearing one. I have a collection of these things.
06:00.440 --> 06:07.440
And if you'd like to see it later, approach me later and I'll show it to you. I have something as old as 4000 years old.
06:07.440 --> 06:09.440
Another cylinder seal.
06:09.440 --> 06:13.440
These were all unique, of course, so they were just like a signature.
06:13.440 --> 06:22.440
To sign a document, you'd take this cylinder seal off your neck, roll it in the clay, they would fire it, it became a permanent record.
06:22.440 --> 06:28.440
This is a cylinder seal. This one's found in the Berlin People's Museum.
06:28.440 --> 06:31.440
We're going to be coming back to this, but I want you to look at two things.
06:31.440 --> 06:37.440
This is the god Enki, and he's the seated one with the horns.
06:37.440 --> 06:43.440
And you can always tell the high ranking Sumerian gods because they wore horned helmets.
06:43.440 --> 06:49.440
And he is presenting to the human who's last in row there with the plow.
06:49.440 --> 06:52.440
This is the gift of agriculture.
06:52.440 --> 06:59.440
And by the way, all of the advances that the Sumerians had made, they said, we did not develop this.
06:59.440 --> 07:03.440
Now, I know human nature. If I were to develop something, I want it to be called the Stanley Process.
07:03.440 --> 07:05.440
You probably would, too.
07:05.440 --> 07:08.440
But they said, we didn't create all these things.
07:08.440 --> 07:14.440
These were gifts from the gods. And this shows the gift of agriculture from the god Enki.
07:14.440 --> 07:21.440
Now, I want you to notice in the upper part of that, there's a little depiction of the solar system.
07:21.440 --> 07:23.440
We're going to get back to that later.
07:23.440 --> 07:28.440
Another thing I want you to notice is if the god Enki in that cylinder seal were to stand up,
07:28.440 --> 07:33.440
he would tower over the human, the two humans in this depiction.
07:33.440 --> 07:41.440
And likewise in the other cylinder seal, the wall depiction, rather, this is a priest administering to one of the gods.
07:41.440 --> 07:45.440
And you can see if he were to stand up, he would be immense.
07:45.440 --> 07:47.440
This is one of the characteristics of the gods.
07:47.440 --> 07:50.440
They were very large people.
07:50.440 --> 07:52.440
They called them the Anunnaki.
07:52.440 --> 07:56.440
And it comes down through later Hebrew.
07:56.440 --> 08:02.440
If you look in the Bible, you'll find about 20 references to the Anakim, also the Nephilim.
08:02.440 --> 08:07.440
This goes back to Sumerian times when the Anunnaki were the gods.
08:07.440 --> 08:13.440
Here's another cylinder seal drawn, and it shows the plow actually in use.
08:13.440 --> 08:16.440
And notice up in the sky is a little cross-like object.
08:16.440 --> 08:18.440
I'm going to cover that a little bit later, too.
08:18.440 --> 08:20.440
I just want to call your attention to it.
08:20.440 --> 08:23.440
One more depiction of one of the gods with the human.
08:23.440 --> 08:27.440
This is the head of the stone of the law of Hammurabi.
08:27.440 --> 08:32.440
If you've ever heard of that, that is supposedly the first law ever given to man.
08:32.440 --> 08:35.440
Well, first, Hammurabi did not write the code.
08:35.440 --> 08:44.440
He claims in the prologue to the law that the law was given to him by the god who is seated there, Shamash.
08:44.440 --> 08:48.440
And again, you can see that if the seated god, and you can tell he's a very high ranking god
08:48.440 --> 08:55.440
because of the number of horns on his headpiece, if he were to stand up, he would tower over the king Hammurabi.
08:58.440 --> 09:00.440
This is a different depiction of Shamash.
09:00.440 --> 09:07.440
It actually is about 500 years later, and I think you can see a definite resemblance.
09:07.440 --> 09:14.440
So although the two pieces of art are 500 years apart, they still seem to know what he looked like.
09:14.440 --> 09:19.440
So that indicates to me that just perhaps Shamash was a real person.
09:21.440 --> 09:25.440
Here are some pictures of Sumerians in their daily lives.
09:25.440 --> 09:27.440
These are humans.
09:27.440 --> 09:33.440
On this side, upper, is a priest, and on the far side over there is a scribe.
09:33.440 --> 09:36.440
The others are merchants and people of the middle class.
09:36.440 --> 09:40.440
Down below is one of the first family portraits.
09:40.440 --> 09:50.440
And I think you can probably notice one of the common traits in many, if not most, of the Sumerian statues,
09:50.440 --> 09:57.440
I've got one in my collection, hands folded like this in a votive pose, a very devout pose.
09:57.440 --> 10:00.440
Now, they're not praying to these gods.
10:00.440 --> 10:05.440
We didn't come about the concept of praying as we know it until much later.
10:05.440 --> 10:14.440
The word prayer actually goes back to the Hebrew word avod, which goes back to the Sumerian word avod, which means work for.
10:14.440 --> 10:17.440
These Sumerians did not pray or worship their gods.
10:17.440 --> 10:19.440
They worked for them.
10:19.440 --> 10:26.440
This is King Gudea, and these are different depictions of him throughout his life.
10:26.440 --> 10:31.440
He had a nice long reign, and he built the ziggurat at Ur.
10:31.440 --> 10:33.440
It's still standing today.
10:33.440 --> 10:35.440
It's being guarded by American troops.
10:35.440 --> 10:44.440
And again, you see the votive pose as if to say, I work for my god.
10:44.440 --> 10:50.440
Sumeria blossomed about 4000 BC.
10:50.440 --> 10:52.440
It was at its height.
10:52.440 --> 10:58.440
And many of the firsts that we know of as human culture came directly from Sumer.
10:58.440 --> 11:05.440
They had the first written language, the first written music, the first doctors, and believe it or not, the first lawyers.
11:05.440 --> 11:07.440
They had a bicameral Congress.
11:07.440 --> 11:10.440
Like we have a Senate and a House.
11:10.440 --> 11:12.440
They had a bicameral Congress, too.
11:12.440 --> 11:14.440
They had navigation.
11:14.440 --> 11:15.440
Did I say metallurgy?
11:15.440 --> 11:16.440
Mathematics?
11:16.440 --> 11:17.440
Astronomy?
11:17.440 --> 11:19.440
I'm going to get back to that.
11:19.440 --> 11:23.440
Many of the firsts came from Sumer.
11:23.440 --> 11:29.440
And the surprising, astonishing thing about Sumer is these things came about rather suddenly.
11:29.440 --> 11:37.440
Now, when I say suddenly, I'm talking about a couple thousand years, but in terms of human development, that's very sudden.
11:37.440 --> 11:43.440
By the way, Sumer was the first to have a standing army.
11:43.440 --> 11:44.440
I was in the Marine Corps.
11:44.440 --> 11:55.440
And I know from that experience that any kind of military is a huge organizational endeavor with training and supplies and logistics and all that goes with it.
11:55.440 --> 12:01.440
Well, Sumer had ample people and resources to have a full-time professional standing army.
12:01.440 --> 12:05.440
And here's one depiction of them.
12:05.440 --> 12:09.440
Now, all this stuff came about very suddenly in Sumer.
12:09.440 --> 12:14.440
And by way of comparison, I want to show you something else in the hominid line.
12:14.440 --> 12:15.440
This is pre-human.
12:15.440 --> 12:24.440
From the Australopithecines in Africa to the Neanderthal, the image you see on the left is the Australopithecine stone scraping tool.
12:24.440 --> 12:29.440
And it took two million years to get from that tool to the tool over on the left.
12:29.440 --> 12:34.440
And archaeologists will tell you that this is an improvement because it's more hand-sized.
12:34.440 --> 12:36.440
Many more chips are taken out.
12:36.440 --> 12:38.440
It's a more refined object.
12:38.440 --> 12:40.440
To me, they both look like stones.
12:40.440 --> 12:46.440
But I've had archaeologists and anthropologists tell me, no, this is a much improved model.
12:46.440 --> 12:55.440
So if I were to illustrate the two million years it took to go from one stone to the improved model, then compare that.
12:55.440 --> 12:58.440
I'm going to pull in running across the screen there.
12:58.440 --> 13:00.440
I don't know if you can see that or not.
13:00.440 --> 13:02.440
Can you see that little dot?
13:02.440 --> 13:04.440
That's 7,600 years.
13:04.440 --> 13:16.440
And that's the time it took Sumerians to go from living in little caves and mud dwellings to the full-blown civilization that they had with all those firsts we talked about.
13:16.440 --> 13:19.440
And keep in mind, they said, we did not develop this.
13:19.440 --> 13:22.440
These were gifts from the gods.
13:22.440 --> 13:27.440
In 11,000 BC, this was at the end of the last Ice Age.
13:27.440 --> 13:31.440
And geologists tell us that the Ice Age ended rather suddenly, abruptly.
13:31.440 --> 13:33.440
Humans were living just like this.
13:33.440 --> 13:39.440
You've seen the cave paintings in Lascaux, France, and this is from the tents.
13:39.440 --> 13:42.440
Those are from a dig in the Ukraine.
13:42.440 --> 13:45.440
This is how the hominids lived, for the most part.
13:45.440 --> 13:46.440
There were a few who didn't.
13:46.440 --> 13:50.440
They lived serving, working for these gods.
13:50.440 --> 13:58.440
But the excess population, the most of the humans, the rest of them, lived out under rather extreme conditions.
13:59.440 --> 14:17.440
After the Ice Age had ended abruptly, suddenly, within 3,600 years, and that's a figure to keep in mind, 3,600 years, we were living in communes, making pottery, doing a little agriculture.
14:17.440 --> 14:32.440
Within 3,600 years, for a total of 7,200 years, we were living in cities with multi-storied buildings, fine art, music, written language, and all that goes with it.
14:32.440 --> 14:38.440
And by the way, at the end of that Ice Age, there's many tales.
14:38.440 --> 14:41.440
You've probably read about it when you were a child in the Bible, the flood.
14:41.440 --> 14:46.440
Well, the Sumerians said all that triggered this was the Great Flood.
14:46.440 --> 14:51.440
In fact, every culture on earth has a story about a prehistoric flood.
14:51.440 --> 14:57.440
In North America alone, there are 47 different tales among the Native American Indians.
14:57.440 --> 15:06.440
So everywhere you go, from South America to China to Europe and to Africa, there are stories of a flood in prehistoric times.
15:06.440 --> 15:09.440
And that's what that's referring to.
15:09.440 --> 15:30.440
And another thing they found was that in translating these Sumerian tablets, they were shocked to find that many of the stories that the people of the 1850s had grown up with, like I grew up with, that they had studied in the Genesis, were also in the Sumerian tablets 2,000 years earlier, 3,000 years earlier.
15:30.440 --> 15:35.440
The flood, the dispersion of humans, the Tower of Babel, and all that.
15:35.440 --> 15:44.440
A man named George Smith, I'm sorry, yes, George Smith, wrote a book in 1876 called the Chaldean Account of Genesis.
15:44.440 --> 15:47.440
Chaldean, just another word for Babylonians or Sumerians.
15:47.440 --> 16:05.440
And it shocked the Christian world because he proved that the interpretation of the creation documents from ancient Sumer were the exact mirror only 2,000 years earlier of the early accounts of Genesis.
16:05.440 --> 16:10.440
And this is the early Hebrew writings.
16:10.440 --> 16:13.440
Well, there is a Sumerian and Hebrew connection.
16:13.440 --> 16:20.440
And there were seven tablets.
16:20.440 --> 16:23.440
The creation story in Sumer was called the Enuma Elish.
16:23.440 --> 16:24.440
That means, when in the heights.
16:24.440 --> 16:26.440
That's the first line.
16:26.440 --> 16:33.440
And it tells the story of how humans came about, how our solar system came about, how the earth came about.
16:33.440 --> 16:36.440
And it's really a very compelling and cohesive story.
16:36.440 --> 16:39.440
There were seven tablets of the Enuma Elish.
16:39.440 --> 16:43.440
And you can see these in museums, because there are many copies of them.
16:43.440 --> 16:48.440
And as we know, there are seven days of creation.
16:48.440 --> 16:54.440
In the Enuma Elish, the gods, little g and plural, created humans.
16:54.440 --> 17:04.440
And if you are familiar with the Hebrew version, not the King James version, but if you look at the Hebrew original version of the two accounts of creation, and there are two.
17:04.440 --> 17:09.440
If you read Genesis, there are two different versions of creation.
17:09.440 --> 17:16.440
And in the Hebrew version, it says the Elohim, the gods, created man.
17:16.440 --> 17:25.440
The first men in the Sumerian account were called the Adapa or the Adamu, means earthling.
17:25.440 --> 17:29.440
Adamu later on became Adam in the Hebrew account.
17:29.440 --> 17:34.440
There was a garden of Aden talked about in these tablets.
17:34.440 --> 17:35.440
It was an orchard.
17:35.440 --> 17:40.440
It was also apparently a genetic research station run by the Anunnaki, the gods.
17:40.440 --> 17:45.440
And that filtered down to the later Hebrews as the Garden of Eden.
17:45.440 --> 17:52.440
One of the chief gods, Enki, that means earth commander.
17:52.440 --> 17:55.440
His name was also Ai, means whose home is water.
17:55.440 --> 18:02.440
And he's depicted not because he was an evil person, but he was depicted as a serpent because he was a very wise person in Sumerian culture.
18:02.440 --> 18:05.440
The serpent is extremely wise.
18:05.440 --> 18:07.440
So Enki is often depicted as a serpent.
18:07.440 --> 18:09.440
I'm going to show you some silver seals.
18:09.440 --> 18:15.440
And of course, we all know the story of the evil serpent in the garden who tempted Eve.
18:15.440 --> 18:21.440
There's a story in another document of Akain, who killed his brother and was banished.
18:21.440 --> 18:27.440
And we all know that as the much later Hebrew story as Cain and Abel.
18:27.440 --> 18:41.440
In the Epic of Gilgamesh, preceded the Hebrew Bible about 2000 years, the hero, Ziosudra, was told by Enki to go build a boat because there was going to be a big flood.
18:41.440 --> 18:46.440
And of course, we know the story of Noah much later.
18:46.440 --> 18:51.440
And in the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
18:51.440 --> 18:56.440
I think 40 days was chosen because 40 has a mystical import to the Hebrews.
18:56.440 --> 19:01.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:01.440 --> 19:04.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:04.440 --> 19:09.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:09.440 --> 19:12.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:12.440 --> 19:13.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:13.440 --> 19:14.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:14.440 --> 19:15.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:15.440 --> 19:16.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:16.440 --> 19:17.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:17.440 --> 19:18.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:18.440 --> 19:19.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:19.440 --> 19:20.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:20.440 --> 19:21.440
And the Hebrew version, the flood lasted for 40 days and the ark washed up on Errorat.
19:21.440 --> 19:28.680
And the story of grain and cattle is a big story in Sumerian culture and also if you
19:28.680 --> 19:36.200
look in the second story of creation in Genesis, it tells of the story of the creation of
19:36.200 --> 19:39.000
grain and cattle.
19:39.000 --> 19:44.360
Mankind spread over the earth, two different versions, Tower of Babel in the Hebrew version
19:44.360 --> 19:48.560
and the earlier version, mankind was just spread across the earth because there were
19:48.560 --> 19:51.000
too many of us.
19:51.000 --> 20:00.120
Once we were created, we tended to outstrip our, we were very prolific shall I say.
20:00.120 --> 20:07.360
And in the Enuma Elish and in the Atrahasis and other accounts, there were some rebellious
20:07.360 --> 20:11.880
cities that had to be destroyed by one of the gods and that came down to us in the
20:11.880 --> 20:14.440
Hebrew version as the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.
20:14.440 --> 20:16.800
I could go on but I've run out of room.
20:17.600 --> 20:19.240
There are many other parallels.
20:19.240 --> 20:27.160
King Sargon for example of Sumer was born in secrecy and his mother put him in a basket
20:27.160 --> 20:29.520
and a bull rushes and set him adrift.
20:29.520 --> 20:30.520
It's the story of Moses.
20:30.520 --> 20:32.120
On and on and on.
20:32.120 --> 20:36.200
I'll not beg, belabor that anymore, you get the point.
20:36.200 --> 20:42.960
The Hebrew Bible, the Genesis account of creation that we know came directly from Sumerian.
20:42.960 --> 20:46.040
And what we have is a shortened and edited version.
20:46.040 --> 20:50.240
If you want the longer version, go to the Enuma Elish.
20:50.240 --> 20:51.240
And what is the connection?
20:51.240 --> 20:56.920
Well Sumer and Israel where the Hebrews were are very close geographically.
20:56.920 --> 21:07.880
It's a very short hop from Babylon to Israel and as we all know, maybe you do, the Israelis,
21:07.880 --> 21:11.840
the Israelites were taken into captivity in the sixth century BC and that's how they
21:11.840 --> 21:14.000
were exposed to those stories.
21:14.000 --> 21:18.320
Before the Hebrew Bible came about, they were exposed to them in Babylon.
21:18.320 --> 21:22.520
They wrote them down, put their own version, their own spin on it and that's why we have
21:22.520 --> 21:28.360
the Hebrew Bible and subsequently the King James version today.
21:28.360 --> 21:31.600
It's the Enuma Elish.
21:31.600 --> 21:35.920
One of the astonishing things about Sumer and one of the other firsts was they had
21:35.920 --> 21:41.360
a very well developed astronomy and cosmogony, an explanation of how the solar system came
21:41.360 --> 21:42.360
about.
21:42.360 --> 21:51.160
According to the Enuma Elish, it told of an intruder planet that wandered into our solar
21:51.160 --> 21:56.240
system, collided with another planet existing, it was called Tiamat.
21:56.240 --> 22:01.100
It was between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
22:01.100 --> 22:08.440
It cleaved the planet in half and shunted the surviving half into a new orbit.
22:08.440 --> 22:13.840
They became the third rock from the sun.
22:13.840 --> 22:25.640
Now if you look at the way we know our solar system today, we have the sun and the planets.
22:25.640 --> 22:31.880
Well the Sumerians had a typical, had a similar way of looking at the solar system.
22:31.880 --> 22:35.920
I'm going to zoom in on this.
22:35.920 --> 22:38.140
Can everybody see those?
22:38.140 --> 22:45.980
If you count the sun at the middle, there are 11 other planets around it.
22:45.980 --> 22:51.780
Now they counted our moon as one of the planets so that's why the count, stick with me on
22:51.780 --> 22:52.780
this.
22:52.780 --> 22:59.420
You count the sun and the known planets and the moon, you come up with 11 points.
22:59.420 --> 23:06.140
In the color version, in the upper right hand corner is something, it's a 12th planet.
23:06.140 --> 23:12.220
They claimed that this 12th planet, and don't forget including the sun and the moon, is
23:12.220 --> 23:13.620
a part of our solar system.
23:13.620 --> 23:15.580
They call it Nibiru.
23:15.580 --> 23:17.020
That's the home of the Anunnaki.
23:17.020 --> 23:20.460
That's where they said the Anunnaki came from, was Nibiru.
23:20.460 --> 23:23.800
This brings us to Zechariah's Sitchin.
23:23.800 --> 23:30.900
Over a personal event that happened in Zechariah's life, he spent a lifetime looking for who
23:30.900 --> 23:33.700
the Nephilim were.
23:33.700 --> 23:39.900
Zechariah was born in Russia but he grew up in Palestine before it was Israel.
23:39.900 --> 23:45.380
He set off on a life mission to discover who the Nephilim were.
23:45.380 --> 23:52.860
He went to college at the London University, studied economics and history, and became
23:52.860 --> 23:57.220
a very good orientalist, a historian and a linguist.
23:57.220 --> 24:01.700
He's one of 200 people in the world who can actually read those cuneiform texts in the
24:02.700 --> 24:03.700
created.
24:03.700 --> 24:15.140
Before I touch on that, the Nephilim, if you take that word apart, the Hebrew, nephel means
24:15.140 --> 24:17.020
to come down, to descend.
24:17.020 --> 24:22.100
If you add the plural ending, chim, you get those who came down.
24:22.100 --> 24:24.900
The Hebrew version, nephelim, means those who came down.
24:24.900 --> 24:27.820
Well, came down from where?
24:27.820 --> 24:31.740
As a similar model, the word for God in Hebrew is el.
24:31.740 --> 24:37.660
There's also a poetic version up there, eloah, you find that in Proverbs, but those are
24:37.660 --> 24:38.660
singular.
24:38.660 --> 24:45.060
But whenever you see in the Hebrew book, Elohim is referring to plural gods.
24:45.060 --> 24:49.540
Similar fashion, the word nephelim, and we're reading from right to left, that's how Hebrew
24:49.540 --> 24:57.440
is written, you see the same suffix for Elohim and nephelim.
24:57.440 --> 25:04.560
He determined finally that he traced the usage of the word nephilim back to the original
25:04.560 --> 25:11.620
source, to the Sumerian documents, and they were talking about the Anunnaki.
25:11.620 --> 25:15.680
Those were the gods that Zechariah Sitchin finally found.
25:15.680 --> 25:21.720
After 20 or 30 years of muttering to himself and studying this topic, his wife, bless her
25:21.720 --> 25:24.680
heart, finally said, quit talking about it, write it down.
25:24.680 --> 25:27.520
So in 1976, he wrote the book, The Twelfth Planet.
25:27.520 --> 25:30.840
It's been almost 30 years ago.
25:30.840 --> 25:34.120
That book came out, and you can still go into any large-sized bookstore and find that on
25:34.120 --> 25:35.120
the shelf.
25:35.120 --> 25:39.200
That's quite an accomplishment for a book to stay on the shelf in print for 30 years.
25:39.200 --> 25:44.640
If you haven't read it, I strongly recommend it to you.
25:44.640 --> 25:52.600
Zechariah speaks many languages, and a very erudite and scholarly man.
25:52.600 --> 25:56.920
The Twelfth Planet might be a challenging book for some people because it is rather
25:56.920 --> 25:58.280
scholarly.
25:58.280 --> 26:05.600
In this picture, Zechariah is talking to Monsignor Balducci, who is a theologian with the Vatican.
26:05.600 --> 26:12.360
And Monsignor Balducci says there is definitely something to Zechariah's thesis.
26:12.360 --> 26:16.440
So if the Vatican is saying that, who am I to doubt it?
26:16.440 --> 26:19.600
And I just want to throw a couple pictures in of me and Zechariah, I've met him several
26:19.600 --> 26:24.040
times, very engaging, very interesting person.
26:24.040 --> 26:29.120
Now the Sumerians wrote the seven tablets of creation called the Enuma Elish.
26:29.120 --> 26:32.720
And they talked about this intruder planet, Nebidru.
26:32.720 --> 26:38.200
And it was captured into orbit around our sun and took on an orbit of 3,600 years, a
26:38.200 --> 26:41.520
very elliptical course.
26:41.520 --> 26:43.040
Why should we believe the Enuma Elish?
26:43.360 --> 26:49.880
Well for many years, for example, we thought that Neptune and Uranus were gaseous giant
26:49.880 --> 26:50.880
planets.
26:50.880 --> 26:53.120
It was just a good assumption to make.
26:53.120 --> 27:01.800
But the Enuma Elish said, au contraire, Neptune and Uranus are watery twins.
27:01.800 --> 27:08.380
And astronomers poo-pooed that until Voyager 1 did a flyby and sent back pictures.
27:08.380 --> 27:13.700
And they said, my goodness, they're watery twins.
27:13.700 --> 27:19.540
The early universe was quite a chaotic place, much more so than today.
27:19.540 --> 27:25.180
Following the Big Bang, objects of different sizes from galaxies down to pebble size were
27:25.180 --> 27:27.960
going flying off in many directions.
27:27.960 --> 27:33.620
So in some degree, the universe is still a chaotic place.
27:33.620 --> 27:38.300
And here's how Zechariah Sitchin interprets the Enuma Elish, the creation story of our
27:38.300 --> 27:39.300
solar system.
27:39.300 --> 27:41.140
I've drawn this out.
27:41.140 --> 27:43.980
I omitted the outer planets and just the inner planets.
27:43.980 --> 27:47.980
So please forgive my artisan attempts here.
27:47.980 --> 27:50.140
This is what the inner planets would have looked like.
27:50.140 --> 27:54.460
You had Mercury, Venus, then the third planet at that time.
27:54.460 --> 27:56.620
This is about 4 and 1 half billion years ago, by the way.
27:56.620 --> 28:03.260
You'd have Mars, and then you'd have Tiamat, the fourth planet, and then Jupiter, and then
28:03.260 --> 28:05.460
all the other planets on out.
28:05.460 --> 28:07.620
And their orbits weren't quite stable at that time.
28:07.620 --> 28:12.460
And according to the Enuma Elish, into this mix came a planet and its own satellites,
28:12.460 --> 28:14.940
its own moons.
28:14.940 --> 28:20.300
And as it approached, and it actually made several passes through the inner solar system,
28:20.300 --> 28:29.100
and on one of its passes, one of its moons struck Tiamat, cleaving it in half.
28:29.260 --> 28:34.180
The other half was shoved into a new orbit, inside the orbit of Mars, making now this
28:34.180 --> 28:41.060
new surviving piece of rock, the third rock from the sun.
28:41.060 --> 28:45.740
And what was left over, the pulverized part, became what we know today as the asteroid
28:45.740 --> 28:51.980
system, and also many of the objects, near-Earth objects, the comets and the meteors that
28:51.980 --> 28:56.900
still fly through every once in a while.
28:56.940 --> 29:04.220
Over a period of several million years, that rock in the third position eventually cooled
29:04.220 --> 29:05.220
down.
29:05.220 --> 29:08.300
The heat transfer must have been enormous.
29:08.300 --> 29:11.780
So that would have created a great deal of heat to be cleaved in half.
29:11.780 --> 29:20.420
But the half-cooled-down began resuming a spherical shape yet again, and it became us.
29:20.420 --> 29:22.940
We're living on half of a planet right now.
29:22.980 --> 29:28.300
We are living on the surviving part of Tiamat.
29:28.300 --> 29:34.260
This is what the, if you're looking overhead, looking down on our solar system, this is
29:34.260 --> 29:35.420
what it would look like.
29:35.420 --> 29:41.780
All the planets going around the sun in a counter-clockwise fashion.
29:41.780 --> 29:48.620
And this is what the orbit of Nibiru, who's now a part of our solar system, the 12th
29:48.700 --> 29:49.700
orbit, would look like.
29:49.700 --> 29:53.620
It comes in every 3600 years and goes back out.
29:53.620 --> 29:55.980
Comes back in every 3600 years and goes back out.
29:55.980 --> 30:00.380
Life sprung up on Nibiru before it did on Earth.
30:00.380 --> 30:08.620
And the inhabitants of Nibiru, the Anunnaki that the Bible spoke of as the Nephilim,
30:08.620 --> 30:13.660
came here to exploit our mineral resources.
30:14.660 --> 30:20.580
Nibiru's orbit would look something like this, coming into the inner solar system
30:20.580 --> 30:26.780
every 3600 years and then going back out, not to be heard again, for yet another 3600
30:26.780 --> 30:28.100
years.
30:28.100 --> 30:33.900
And it's at this point, I think, and Zechariah thinks, and many other writers think, that
30:33.900 --> 30:39.220
every time the planet comes in, the Anunnaki come over here, check us out, pick up some
30:39.220 --> 30:45.460
more minerals, and lately have been imparting to us technology, like the plow and other
30:45.460 --> 30:50.380
things, maybe doing some genetic upgrades, and then going back on their merry way.
30:50.380 --> 30:53.420
They don't want to stay here because this is a tough duty station for them.
30:53.420 --> 30:55.940
This is a hostile place for them to live.
30:55.940 --> 30:58.620
Sometimes it's a hostile place for us to live.
30:58.620 --> 31:03.060
They call the planet Nibiru throughout human cultures all over the world.
31:03.060 --> 31:08.540
It's called the planet of crossing because it comes through, it crosses through our sky,
31:08.540 --> 31:14.940
crosses the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, it revisits the asteroid belt where it first
31:14.940 --> 31:17.660
struck the planet Tiamat before going back out.
31:17.660 --> 31:18.820
It never comes near Earth.
31:18.820 --> 31:24.620
It's not a physical threat to Earth.
31:24.620 --> 31:29.140
But the cross symbol predates Christianity by many thousands of years.
31:29.140 --> 31:31.380
Here are several of them.
31:31.380 --> 31:35.860
The upper right is an Egyptian cross or a drawing of one.
31:35.900 --> 31:40.340
The two in the lower left, those are pre-Columbian in South America.
31:40.340 --> 31:44.300
And over here, if I can get my pointer to work, maybe you can see it from the Egyptian
31:44.300 --> 31:49.140
Book of the Dead, there are two crosses in that depiction.
31:49.140 --> 31:54.780
I can't seem to point it.
31:54.780 --> 31:57.060
Perhaps you can, I can't see where it's falling.
31:57.060 --> 32:03.340
Anyway, I trust that you can see those two crosses in the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
32:03.380 --> 32:09.900
And here's yet another Sumerian cylinder seal with what looks like a Maltese cross on it.
32:09.900 --> 32:16.660
Well, people for years looked at Zechariah Sitchin's 12th planet and said, you can't
32:16.660 --> 32:22.020
have planets that have that wild of an orbit, that eccentric of an orbit, it just probably
32:22.020 --> 32:23.020
wouldn't happen.
32:23.020 --> 32:28.860
Well, just recently, in 2003, the French science magazine Science et Vie, Science and Life,
32:28.860 --> 32:35.020
a French astronomer said, yes, there probably is another planet in our solar system and
32:35.020 --> 32:39.100
it probably has a very elliptical path, just like this.
32:39.100 --> 32:41.020
Science is beginning to catch up to this idea.
32:41.020 --> 32:47.540
In fact, I noticed on space.com, the website, I don't know if you can read that or not,
32:47.540 --> 32:54.540
but there's an article that said that, in fact, many, many planets have eccentric orbits,
32:54.540 --> 32:55.980
wildly eccentric orbits.
32:55.980 --> 32:57.700
So it's not so unusual.
32:57.700 --> 33:00.660
I think Zechariah turned on to something.
33:00.660 --> 33:05.260
Now, this is a depiction of a cylinder seal.
33:05.260 --> 33:12.740
For some reason, the Sumerians gave Mars the number six and Earth was depicted as number
33:12.740 --> 33:14.900
seven for some reason.
33:14.900 --> 33:20.100
And you see in the right hand, there's a god probably in key on Earth and you count the
33:20.100 --> 33:22.100
seven dots and there's the moon.
33:22.740 --> 33:25.340
And he's communicating, saying hello to someone on Mars.
33:25.340 --> 33:29.580
And I know it's Mars because there's a little object that has six points on it.
33:29.580 --> 33:37.180
And they're probably using what looks like some communication satellite to say hello.
33:37.180 --> 33:42.740
And for years, Sumerian scholars didn't know why Mars was depicted with the number six
33:42.740 --> 33:45.380
and why Earth was depicted as the number seven.
33:45.380 --> 33:49.260
We think of ourselves as the third rock from the sun, so we'd be number three and Mars
33:49.260 --> 33:51.580
would be number four.
33:51.620 --> 33:58.020
In fact, there's another cylinder seal below there showing Earth and Mars.
33:58.020 --> 34:03.100
Well, it took Zechariah to figure out that if you're coming into our solar system from
34:03.100 --> 34:10.460
the outside, if you count from Pluto to Uranus and Neptune, Saturn, Jupiter, the sixth planet
34:10.460 --> 34:13.460
you hit, you come to is Mars.
34:13.460 --> 34:15.980
And then the seventh planet you come to is Earth.
34:15.980 --> 34:21.220
So that's why Earth is depicted as seven and Mars is six.
34:21.300 --> 34:22.300
Interesting, huh?
34:24.300 --> 34:28.820
Now the Sumerians tell us that these gods were real flesh and blood people.
34:28.820 --> 34:30.100
They had warts and all.
34:30.100 --> 34:32.660
They were sometimes nasty people.
34:32.660 --> 34:33.900
They were sometimes beings.
34:33.900 --> 34:37.100
They were sometimes had altruism.
34:37.100 --> 34:38.100
They had good traits.
34:38.100 --> 34:39.700
They had bad traits.
34:39.700 --> 34:43.580
And they were living among them.
34:43.580 --> 34:48.580
In fact, in every city there was a sacred precinct with its own ziggurat, and that's
34:48.580 --> 34:50.780
where the local god lived.
34:52.220 --> 34:57.220
And all the people around had one job.
34:57.220 --> 34:58.860
They worked for that god.
34:58.860 --> 34:59.860
They worked in the fields.
34:59.860 --> 35:02.020
They worked in the stables.
35:02.020 --> 35:04.740
They worked at Goldsmith.
35:04.740 --> 35:09.140
All the work they did was for the god that they served.
35:09.140 --> 35:12.140
They say these gods had an advanced technology.
35:12.140 --> 35:18.580
Now the Sumerians being just recently literate and not having this technology, by the way,
35:18.580 --> 35:25.700
the humans did not have this technology of flying and communicating long distances
35:25.700 --> 35:28.460
and radar and going into space and all that.
35:28.460 --> 35:31.460
They wrote them down on these clay tablets to the best of their ability.
35:35.700 --> 35:37.980
The gods are often depicted as eagles too.
35:37.980 --> 35:39.900
Now this is not really unusual.
35:39.900 --> 35:41.380
We do the same thing.
35:41.380 --> 35:48.380
When Neil Armstrong sat down on the moon, he said, Tranquility base here, the eagle
35:48.380 --> 35:49.380
has landed.
35:49.380 --> 35:52.380
And if you flew here like I did, the pilot on my jet had wings.
35:52.380 --> 35:55.380
All this does is say, we fly.
35:55.380 --> 36:01.380
And similarly, those priests who served in key, in key is associated with water, they're
36:01.380 --> 36:04.380
shown in the moon.
36:04.380 --> 36:11.380
Similarly, those priests who served in key, in key is associated with water, they're
36:11.380 --> 36:12.380
shown as fish.
36:12.380 --> 36:16.380
That's one of the priests in the middle there with the fish headdress.
36:16.380 --> 36:20.380
That means he's a priest who served the god in key.
36:20.380 --> 36:26.380
And our submariners on their uniforms, they show dolphins and fish.
36:26.380 --> 36:29.380
So not much different from what we do.
36:30.380 --> 36:35.380
The motif of flying is very common throughout the Sumerian culture when they refer to the
36:35.380 --> 36:36.380
gods.
36:36.380 --> 36:39.380
They were a flying culture.
36:39.380 --> 36:45.380
And they never say that the gods themselves could lift up bodily and fly.
36:45.380 --> 36:47.380
They said they used machines.
36:47.380 --> 36:56.380
A black flying bird, sometimes described as something that's very stealthy and very fast,
36:56.380 --> 36:57.380
something very noisy.
36:57.380 --> 36:59.380
Sounds like a jet or a rocket.
36:59.380 --> 37:02.380
You've probably seen this.
37:02.380 --> 37:04.380
It's from the New Kingdom Temple.
37:04.380 --> 37:06.380
It's just south of Cairo.
37:06.380 --> 37:12.380
And I've heard different explanations as trying to debunk this, but every time I look at
37:12.380 --> 37:15.380
it, I still think, no, I'm looking at helicopters and flying craft.
37:15.380 --> 37:17.380
That's 3,000 years old.
37:17.380 --> 37:25.380
This is a cylinder seal from ancient Mesopotamia of a war party, setting off to war and up
37:25.380 --> 37:29.380
in the sky is a rocket.
37:29.380 --> 37:36.380
Now, these are two Sumerian characters, din gir, and that means the righteous ones of
37:36.380 --> 37:37.380
the rocket ship.
37:37.380 --> 37:41.380
At least that's the way Zechariah Sitchin interprets that.
37:41.380 --> 37:43.380
Scholars will say, no, no, no, no.
37:43.380 --> 37:49.380
But Zechariah insists that din gir means the righteous ones of the rocket ship.
37:50.380 --> 37:56.380
Because it's always seen in context for association with a god who is going to or fro, coming
37:56.380 --> 37:58.380
somewhere or going somewhere.
37:58.380 --> 38:04.380
And it's not a leap of intuition to see that it resembles one of our early rocket ships
38:04.380 --> 38:08.380
with a capsule on it.
38:08.380 --> 38:10.380
Here's another depiction.
38:10.380 --> 38:12.380
This is from an ancient Egyptian wall.
38:12.380 --> 38:21.380
This shows a subterranean, what appears to be a launcher and a nose cone capsule above
38:21.380 --> 38:22.380
ground.
38:22.380 --> 38:28.380
And it's being held as an object of reverence.
38:28.380 --> 38:35.380
According to the Anuma Elish, the gods arrived here about 445,000 years ago.
38:35.380 --> 38:38.380
And they came here, oh, by the way, 3,600 years.
38:38.380 --> 38:39.380
I told you that would be important.
38:39.380 --> 38:43.380
That's a period that the Sumerians called one shar.
38:43.380 --> 38:51.380
Now, why would preliterate people need to have a period of time that is defined as
38:51.380 --> 38:53.380
3,600 years?
38:53.380 --> 38:57.380
Well, the reason is that's the orbit of, one orbit of Nibiru.
38:57.380 --> 39:00.380
And they referred to shar as 3,600 years.
39:00.380 --> 39:03.380
It's in the Sumerian language.
39:03.380 --> 39:07.380
So the Anunnaki came here 120 shar, or 445,000 years ago.
39:07.380 --> 39:09.380
They were looking for minerals.
39:09.380 --> 39:12.380
Apparently their own planet was mineral poor.
39:12.380 --> 39:16.380
And they discovered that Earth is very rich in mineral deposits, especially gold.
39:16.380 --> 39:18.380
They didn't use gold for commercial purposes.
39:18.380 --> 39:20.380
They used it for electronics.
39:20.380 --> 39:24.380
They used it to plate their windows just like we do.
39:24.380 --> 39:28.380
The Challenger shuttle, the windows are plated in gold.
39:28.380 --> 39:31.380
It retains heat.
39:31.380 --> 39:37.380
And some of the better windows in sky rises are plated in a very thin layer of gold.
39:37.380 --> 39:40.380
The Anunnaki had the very same purposes.
39:40.380 --> 39:46.380
There's some speculation, too, that they were trying to preserve their atmosphere.
39:46.380 --> 39:52.380
That repeated trips through the inter-solar system was depleting their atmosphere.
39:52.380 --> 39:57.380
And they were going, that they planned to, suspend gold in very fine particle in a mist
39:57.380 --> 40:00.380
in their atmosphere in order to protect it.
40:00.380 --> 40:02.380
That's one theory.
40:02.380 --> 40:05.380
When they first came here, they landed somewhere in the Persian Gulf.
40:05.380 --> 40:11.380
That's why they're so associated with Babylon, because that's where they first splashed down.
40:11.380 --> 40:15.380
They created a colony in the marshy areas.
40:15.380 --> 40:18.380
They called it Eredu, means home in the far away.
40:18.380 --> 40:21.380
And their first homes were probably something like this.
40:21.380 --> 40:26.380
This is what people living in those marshy areas today are living like.
40:26.380 --> 40:31.380
And the Anunnaki probably lived just like that.
40:31.380 --> 40:35.380
They were a technologically advanced culture.
40:35.380 --> 40:43.380
They, at that time, were at a point in their technology that's probably about a hundred years from where we are today.
40:43.380 --> 40:47.380
I'd say we're beginning to close the gap on them.
40:47.380 --> 40:49.380
Whoops, sorry.
40:49.380 --> 40:53.380
They apparently used some kind of storage device, a computer device.
40:53.380 --> 40:58.380
It's referred to frequently as a meh, spelled M-E, a meh.
40:58.380 --> 41:01.380
They tried to steal them from one another.
41:01.380 --> 41:07.380
They were very highly prized, like I prized my laptop here.
41:07.380 --> 41:10.380
They had the extreme longevity, living in thousands of years.
41:10.380 --> 41:17.380
The early Sumerian king list, list Anunnaki rulers who ruled thousands of years.
41:18.380 --> 41:31.380
I think the reason for that is they probably had finally managed to get a hold of their own genetic code and had fixed the problem of aging.
41:31.380 --> 41:36.380
I personally see aging as a medical problem, as maybe even a disease.
41:36.380 --> 41:42.380
I'd love for us to advance our genetics to the point where we can live to two and three hundred years.
41:42.380 --> 41:44.380
I think that's going to happen very soon.
41:44.380 --> 41:55.380
The Anunnaki were ahead of us and I think they had done that and had adjusted their own genetics and had achieved very long lives.
41:55.380 --> 42:00.380
This led to the myth that they were immortal.
42:00.380 --> 42:01.380
They didn't die.
42:01.380 --> 42:03.380
Well, they did die.
42:03.380 --> 42:04.380
They did age.
42:04.380 --> 42:13.380
There are various depictions of some of the gods as aging and stories of them dying, even murdering one another over jealousies.
42:13.380 --> 42:17.380
So they were they could die.
42:21.380 --> 42:27.380
Their first plan was to obtain the gold from the Persian Gulf waters, but that didn't work out.
42:27.380 --> 42:33.380
So they found that there were huge earth deposits of gold in what was called Ubsu.
42:33.380 --> 42:36.380
The means the lower world.
42:37.380 --> 42:44.380
Now, from Sumer to the lower world, Southern Africa is a southerly direction.
42:44.380 --> 42:51.380
And this implies to me that someone had an idea of global spatial concept.
42:51.380 --> 42:53.380
They also called what we call the Mediterranean Sea.
42:53.380 --> 42:55.380
They called it the upper sea.
42:55.380 --> 43:05.380
And you don't know that it's the upper sea unless you can depict or picture in your mind the globe as a as a sphere oriented North Pole,
43:05.380 --> 43:06.380
South Pole.
43:06.380 --> 43:11.380
So the Mediterranean Sea was the upper sea and Southern Africa was the lower world.
43:14.380 --> 43:21.380
They set about mining this gold in Southern Africa, and they worked there for many thousands of years.
43:21.380 --> 43:29.380
And it would trans ship the gold shipments to first to Mars and then to Nibiru every time it came through.
43:30.380 --> 43:31.380
I mentioned Mars.
43:31.380 --> 43:34.380
Let me throw up some real quick pictures.
43:34.380 --> 43:39.380
Everybody here should be familiar with the planet Sidona and some of these odd pictures that have been taken.
43:39.380 --> 43:41.380
We don't know what some of these are.
43:42.380 --> 43:50.380
This is something if you go in the namescapes, Hogan, thank you.
43:50.380 --> 43:51.380
Hogan's website.
43:51.380 --> 43:58.380
This is referred to as the fortress straight objects and things with angles don't occur in nature.
43:58.380 --> 44:02.380
These appear to be artificially manufactured something.
44:02.380 --> 44:03.380
That's huge.
44:03.380 --> 44:04.380
Whatever that is.
44:04.380 --> 44:08.380
And here's an anomaly found in one of the craters in Mars.
44:08.380 --> 44:11.380
Something has happened on Mars in ancient times.
44:11.380 --> 44:17.380
We don't just not sure what I suspect that whatever it is, we will find it was connected with the activities of the Anunnaki.
44:17.380 --> 44:27.380
Anyway, back to our story down in the mines, the lower echelon ranks of the Anunnaki had worked there for many thousands of years, and they were frankly just quite tired of it.
44:27.380 --> 44:34.380
Mining, even as safe as we've made it today, is still hot, brutal, dangerous work.
44:34.380 --> 44:36.380
So they mutinied.
44:36.380 --> 44:37.380
They said, no more.
44:37.380 --> 44:38.380
We don't want to do this anymore.
44:38.380 --> 44:47.380
And put the whole mission in jeopardy until the god Enki stepped up and said, I have a solution.
44:47.380 --> 44:50.380
The being exists on this planet.
44:51.380 --> 45:00.380
I can impose the genetic imprint of the gods, us, the Anunnaki, and create us a worker.
45:00.380 --> 45:08.380
They were looking for a worker that would be obedient, would follow orders, could handle tools, had a grasp of the human hand.
45:08.380 --> 45:13.380
And what they got, I suggest to you, was us.
45:13.380 --> 45:15.380
The Hebrew Bible says,
45:20.380 --> 45:26.380
And don't forget that comes from the earlier Sumerian Enuma Elish, which says,
45:44.380 --> 45:47.380
It probably actually took several hundred years to do.
45:47.380 --> 45:50.380
But it had a few false starts, too.
45:50.380 --> 45:52.380
The story, the full story is interesting.
45:52.380 --> 45:55.380
Read the Twelfth Planet if you want to know about it.
45:55.380 --> 46:06.380
And the creature I think that they used, since we seem to be the most closely associated with this creature, was Homo erectus.
46:06.380 --> 46:15.380
And from Homo erectus, using genetic manipulation, this is about 250,000 years ago, created us.
46:15.380 --> 46:21.380
Now Newsweek did a story some time back on the human genome search, the mapping.
46:21.380 --> 46:23.380
Apparently they were in the search for Adam and Eve.
46:23.380 --> 46:31.380
They somehow thought that Adam looked like Lionel Richie, but that's how their cover is depicted.
46:31.380 --> 46:35.380
But this is a more important depiction.
46:35.380 --> 46:37.380
This is a cylinder seal about 4,000 years old.
46:37.380 --> 46:41.380
It's a drawing of a cylinder seal, to be more precise.
46:41.380 --> 46:47.380
And here you see Ninhurzag, that's Enki's half-sister, in her laboratory.
46:47.380 --> 46:49.380
This is the moment of creation.
46:49.380 --> 46:51.380
This is the creation of us.
46:51.380 --> 46:56.380
That's Adam's, the Adamu, the earthling, sitting on her lap.
46:56.380 --> 47:03.380
Behind her is the Tree of Life, meaning that she had the power of manipulating genetics.
47:03.380 --> 47:07.380
And she's in her laboratory, you see helpers there in the various flasks.
47:07.380 --> 47:11.380
This is the story of our creation.
47:12.380 --> 47:14.380
So where did we come from?
47:14.380 --> 47:16.380
Mommy, where did we come from?
47:16.380 --> 47:23.380
According to the Sumerian account, we were created 250,000 years ago by the Anunnaki.
47:23.380 --> 47:30.380
And if you look at the Hebrew account, it says God created us in His own image.
47:30.380 --> 47:36.380
And according to the recent genome mapping that took place,
47:36.380 --> 47:40.380
and we know the whole picture of the 30,000 odd genes of the human race,
47:40.380 --> 47:50.380
I think what happened was that the gods interceded using genetic manipulation
47:50.380 --> 47:54.380
on a primate that existed here to create us.
47:54.380 --> 47:58.380
Now this is normally where I take a break, but we're not going to do that.
47:58.380 --> 48:00.380
I'll press on.
48:01.380 --> 48:05.380
You might say, Bill, those are pretty astounding claims.
48:05.380 --> 48:06.380
Do you have any proof of that?
48:06.380 --> 48:08.380
No, I can't give you proof.
48:08.380 --> 48:10.380
Proof that would stand up in court.
48:10.380 --> 48:13.380
Actually, some of this might stand up in court, but I can show you evidence.
48:13.380 --> 48:16.380
I'm going to go through a little bit of evidence here.
48:16.380 --> 48:19.380
Some of it's circumstantial and some pretty compelling, I think.
48:19.380 --> 48:23.380
The first, Exhibit A, pretend you're a jury.
48:23.380 --> 48:27.380
Exhibit A is you, humanity itself.
48:28.380 --> 48:29.380
This is our timeline.
48:29.380 --> 48:37.380
You remember the two million year old, the two cutting tools it took to take two million years?
48:37.380 --> 48:39.380
Remember that?
48:39.380 --> 48:42.380
If we had continued on that path of evolution,
48:42.380 --> 48:50.380
it would have taken us probably five million years to get to the point where we could
48:50.380 --> 48:52.380
have some kind of civilization.
48:52.380 --> 48:56.380
And to reach the machine age and the space age would take probably another five million years,
48:56.380 --> 48:58.380
a total of ten million years.
48:58.380 --> 49:11.380
But something happened to us right around 200,000 years ago that has put us on a very accelerated path to civilization.
49:11.380 --> 49:16.380
So instead of hunting our food, we now go to Kroger or the Bilo.
49:16.380 --> 49:19.380
We call Pizza Hut to deliver.
49:19.380 --> 49:27.380
All the accoutrements of civilization have come about in a twinkling of an eye.
49:27.380 --> 49:31.380
And that's because I think we were put on a path about 200,000 years ago,
49:31.380 --> 49:36.380
and especially more quickly, more recently, 11,000 years ago on the path to civilization,
49:36.380 --> 49:39.380
the gifts of the gods that put us on the road we're on.
49:39.380 --> 49:43.380
So we're Exhibit A. We have no right to be here.
49:43.380 --> 49:51.380
Exhibit B is this...I'm still on Exhibit A, sorry.
49:51.380 --> 49:56.380
From the Wright Brothers who went to Kitty Hawk and flew the plane,
49:56.380 --> 50:03.380
to Charles Lindbergh who flew across the Atlantic, a mere 24 years elapsed.
50:03.380 --> 50:09.380
And 42 years later, we put foot on the moon.
50:09.380 --> 50:15.380
A total of 66 years from Kitty Hawk to setting on the moon.
50:15.380 --> 50:20.380
That is an incredible story if you stop and think about it.
50:20.380 --> 50:30.380
Exhibit B. This is Exhibit B, and I want to acknowledge a debt of gratitude to Lloyd Pye on all this genetic stuff.
50:30.380 --> 50:35.380
Lloyd, by the way, is the one in the upper right-hand corner.
50:35.380 --> 50:38.380
Are you out there, Lloyd?
50:38.380 --> 50:45.380
According to Lloyd and other writing I've pursued, we're not really a primate.
50:45.380 --> 50:49.380
We have so many differences between us and the primates.
50:49.380 --> 50:55.380
Bone density, just...I could go on all day about anatomical differences, but I won't.
50:55.380 --> 51:00.380
We have entirely different skulls, bone density, muscle structure.
51:00.380 --> 51:05.380
We have eyes that are more rectangular in shape, eye sockets,
51:05.380 --> 51:09.380
and we're adapted to looking visual in the daytime.
51:09.380 --> 51:14.380
That's why we have to have night vision equipment to assist our nocturnal vision.
51:14.380 --> 51:17.380
The primates can see very well at night.
51:17.380 --> 51:22.380
We walk upright most of the time.
51:22.380 --> 51:26.380
The primates rarely walk upright unless they're trying to reach something.
51:26.380 --> 51:30.380
And if we were supposedly evolved on this planet, we were very poorly adapted.
51:30.380 --> 51:35.380
A show of hands, who's had a sunburn in the last year or two?
51:35.380 --> 51:39.380
We are not very well adapted living on this planet.
51:39.380 --> 51:42.380
And our hands.
51:42.380 --> 51:48.380
Primate hands are designed for crushing and for grasping, gross motion.
51:48.380 --> 51:57.380
Human hands are designed for fine things like playing the violin, a keyboard, driving.
51:57.380 --> 52:06.380
There's a huge distance between primate hands, primate anatomy, primate philology, everything, and humans.
52:06.380 --> 52:17.380
And the thing is, we appeared way too suddenly in the fossil record for any kind of evolution to have taken place.
52:17.380 --> 52:20.380
Does size really matter?
52:20.380 --> 52:23.380
In terms of brain power, it does.
52:23.380 --> 52:29.380
More importantly than size are the convolutions of the brain.
52:29.380 --> 52:39.380
Now, here's a postcard next to a mouse and a small marmoset monkey.
52:39.380 --> 52:45.380
If you took a marmoset monkey's brain and all the convolutions and spread it out, it would cover that postcard.
52:45.380 --> 52:49.380
The mouse's brain would cover the postage stamp.
52:49.380 --> 52:57.380
A chimpanzee, or in this case, homo erectus, if you did the same thing, we can extrapolate this from fossil finds,
52:57.380 --> 53:05.380
spread out the brain and smooth out all the convolutions, would cover about one page, about that size right there.
53:05.380 --> 53:15.380
But suddenly in the fossil record, humans appear 250,000 years ago with no precedence, we're just there.
53:15.380 --> 53:19.380
And our brain would cover four pages.
53:19.380 --> 53:23.380
And we appeared too suddenly to have evolved here.
53:23.380 --> 53:28.380
Something happened. We are a special case of evolution.
53:28.380 --> 53:31.380
But I can talk about that stuff all day and not convince you.
53:31.380 --> 53:37.380
The real story about the difference between us and the primates is told in the genes.
53:37.380 --> 53:41.380
All of the primates have 48 sets of chromosomes.
53:41.380 --> 53:44.380
Humans alone have 46.
53:44.380 --> 53:48.380
You don't lose two chromosomes and come out better, and not just slightly better.
53:48.380 --> 53:52.380
I'm talking about vastly better.
53:52.380 --> 53:56.380
Well, the story is told right there in the second and third chromosome.
53:56.380 --> 53:58.380
We didn't lose anything.
53:58.380 --> 54:07.380
In the human chromosome, the human genome, the second chromosome is the second and third primate chromosome that has been fused.
54:07.380 --> 54:10.380
And that's a process that doesn't occur in nature.
54:10.380 --> 54:13.380
That's a process that occurs in the laboratory.
54:13.380 --> 54:18.380
That right there is the smoking gun.
54:18.380 --> 54:28.380
And also geneticists have pointed out that in doing the human genome mapping, they came across 223, they call them ha-ha, alien genes.
54:28.380 --> 54:31.380
I think they're more right than they know.
54:31.380 --> 54:41.380
And another thing about humans, Darwin himself said that we have all the earmarks of a domesticated animal because of the great number of genetic defects that we have.
54:41.380 --> 54:45.380
And animals occurring in nature have very few genetic defects.
54:45.380 --> 54:50.380
Does anybody care to guess how many defects humans have?
54:50.380 --> 54:52.380
I heard a thousand.
54:52.380 --> 54:53.380
Do I hear two thousand?
54:53.380 --> 54:54.380
Do I hear four?
54:54.380 --> 54:55.380
Four thousand?
54:55.380 --> 54:57.380
We have over four thousand genetic defects.
54:57.380 --> 55:00.380
We're finding a new one or two every year.
55:00.380 --> 55:06.380
Any time that you mess with something genetically, you introduce inadvertently genetic defects.
55:06.380 --> 55:10.380
I think we have that many genetic defects because we have been messed with genetically.
55:10.380 --> 55:22.380
Dolly the sheep, the first cloned sheep, died at the University of Tennessee because it had a, I'm sorry, it wasn't University of Tennessee.
55:22.380 --> 55:25.380
We've been cloning cattle at University of Tennessee.
55:25.380 --> 55:30.380
But Dolly died because she had a compromised immune system inherited genetically.
55:30.380 --> 55:32.380
We don't have it just right yet.
55:32.380 --> 55:36.380
The Anunnaki didn't have it right either.
55:36.380 --> 55:41.380
I'd say many of the people in this room, myself included, have some kind of genetic defect.
55:41.380 --> 55:46.380
And I'm a little angry about it, to tell you the truth.
55:46.380 --> 55:49.380
Exhibit C, geology.
55:49.380 --> 55:53.380
We are familiar with Pangea or Gondwanaland.
55:53.380 --> 55:57.380
Geologists say at one time all the land masses were on one side of the planet.
55:57.380 --> 55:59.380
Well, planets don't form that way.
55:59.380 --> 56:01.380
Planets form homogeneously.
56:01.380 --> 56:11.380
Why would we have land mass on one side of the planet and only gradually would they move through tectonic motion into their current location?
56:11.380 --> 56:23.380
I think it's because our planet was struck, cut in half, and the remaining, the surviving land masses then were shifted into their current location.
56:23.380 --> 56:26.380
This is a depiction of the Earth.
56:26.380 --> 56:28.380
Has anybody flown over the Atlantic?
56:28.380 --> 56:30.380
You know, it's a long flight.
56:30.380 --> 56:31.380
It's a really long flight.
56:31.380 --> 56:36.380
You can catch two movies and a nap and a meal and sit down jet lagged in London.
56:36.380 --> 56:39.380
Well, let me rotate that.
56:39.380 --> 56:47.380
If you've ever flown across the Pacific, you have a much longer trip, a much longer trip.
56:47.380 --> 56:51.380
What you're looking at there is the evidence of a scene of a crime.
56:51.380 --> 56:57.380
This is where Nibiru, or rather one of its satellites, struck Tiamat.
56:57.380 --> 56:59.380
And this is today.
56:59.380 --> 57:04.380
This is even after millions of years of tectonic movement, we still have that much of the Pacific Ocean.
57:04.380 --> 57:08.380
And if you do core samples anywhere on Earth, you're going to come up with roughly four billion years.
57:08.380 --> 57:09.380
That's the age of the Earth.
57:09.380 --> 57:12.380
The only exception is the Pacific Ocean.
57:12.380 --> 57:17.380
You dig down, go down far enough and do a core sample, and you come up a mere 200 million years.
57:17.380 --> 57:19.380
It's much newer crust.
57:19.380 --> 57:23.380
It's just taken that long for the crust to form at the Pacific.
57:23.380 --> 57:25.380
You're looking at half of a planet.
57:25.380 --> 57:27.380
We live on half a planet.
57:27.380 --> 57:32.380
I've already talked about the documentary evidence, Exhibit D.
57:32.380 --> 57:40.380
I don't need to go into it, except to say that we can either accept the documentary evidence of the Samarians
57:40.380 --> 57:46.380
and the Hebrews and the Egyptians and others who wrote during this time about these gods and their advanced development.
57:46.380 --> 57:53.380
We can accept that as historical eyewitness accounts, or we can say that our ancestors were hallucinating.
57:53.380 --> 57:58.380
I choose to think that they were writing down in their own limited way.
57:58.380 --> 58:03.380
I think they were talking about real events that they saw.
58:03.380 --> 58:05.380
Exhibit D.
58:05.380 --> 58:12.380
The world is literally littered with the remnants of the Anunnaki of previous civilization.
58:12.380 --> 58:14.380
I know Michael Cremo is going to follow me.
58:14.380 --> 58:17.380
We'll talk about previous civilizations.
58:17.380 --> 58:23.380
But I think much of the remnants that survive today are left over from the Anunnaki period.
58:23.380 --> 58:27.380
The great pyramid in Sphinx at Giza.
58:27.380 --> 58:30.380
We could not build that today if we tried.
58:30.380 --> 58:32.380
Here are a couple more pyramids.
58:32.380 --> 58:34.380
We know exactly who built those.
58:34.380 --> 58:36.380
They're falling apart.
58:36.380 --> 58:40.380
In the bent pyramid there, they couldn't sustain the 52-degree angle.
58:40.380 --> 58:44.380
And so they then went to a lesser angle.
58:44.380 --> 58:50.380
The red pyramid in the background, if you can see it or not, is a pile of rubble, a pile of bricks.
58:50.380 --> 58:54.380
The one that has remained, the three rather that have remained, are the three at Giza.
58:54.380 --> 58:59.380
They, I think, were built about 10,000 years ago by the Anunnaki.
58:59.380 --> 59:02.380
And so were the Sphinx.
59:02.380 --> 59:08.380
In fact, recent evidence, if you are familiar with the writings of Professor Schock and West, said,
59:08.380 --> 59:12.380
Yes, indeed. These were built around 10,500 years ago.
59:12.380 --> 59:16.380
And they were, then they were built by the Anunnaki.
59:16.380 --> 59:22.380
I won't go into this in great detail, but this is a palette that shows in the upper right-hand corner
59:22.380 --> 59:29.380
that the pyramid already existed in the time of Menes that predates Khufu by about 1,000 years.
59:29.380 --> 59:32.380
Sometimes the great pyramid is attributed to Khufu.
59:32.380 --> 59:34.380
He could not have built that.
59:34.380 --> 59:35.380
It didn't happen.
59:35.380 --> 59:38.380
And by the way, these pyramids were never the tomb of anybody.
59:38.380 --> 59:41.380
Here's another little artifact in the museum.
59:41.380 --> 59:45.380
This picture in the British Museum, it's a Sumerian object.
59:45.380 --> 59:54.380
It tells the story of En-Ki coming, I'm sorry, En-Leo, another god, coming to earth and how he got here.
59:54.380 --> 59:58.380
People don't just make this stuff up unless there's something to base it on.
59:58.380 --> 01:00:06.380
I think the Sumerians who created this based it on the story told to them by En-Leo.
01:00:06.380 --> 01:00:11.380
Exhibit F, I call this Technological Parity.
01:00:11.380 --> 01:00:21.380
When these tablets were first interpreted in the 1850s, they were immediately put down as myth.
01:00:21.380 --> 01:00:25.380
These things could not happen because people couldn't fly.
01:00:25.380 --> 01:00:27.380
I flew here, by the way, as some of you did.
01:00:28.380 --> 01:00:39.380
But back in the 1850s, people couldn't fly and they certainly couldn't go into space or do genetic research and create new species.
01:00:39.380 --> 01:00:43.380
They couldn't communicate over long distance.
01:00:43.380 --> 01:00:45.380
And I communicate over long distance all the time.
01:00:45.380 --> 01:00:46.380
Most of you do.
01:00:46.380 --> 01:00:47.380
I've got a cell phone.
01:00:47.380 --> 01:00:48.380
Big deal.
01:00:48.380 --> 01:00:49.380
Most of us do.
01:00:49.380 --> 01:00:53.380
But to the Sumerians, that was a big deal.
01:00:53.380 --> 01:00:59.380
These gods were able to communicate over great distances.
01:00:59.380 --> 01:01:04.380
They had weapons that could destroy single cities with one weapon.
01:01:04.380 --> 01:01:08.380
And they were able to go probe other planets and go places.
01:01:08.380 --> 01:01:10.380
Well, we have reached that point.
01:01:10.380 --> 01:01:18.380
I suspect if we found these clay tablets today, we would say, oh, this is indeed a previously unknown advanced civilization.
01:01:18.380 --> 01:01:24.380
But because these clay tablets were discovered by men of the 1850s, they couldn't possibly be true.
01:01:24.380 --> 01:01:25.380
So they were put down as myth.
01:01:25.380 --> 01:01:29.380
And they've remained thought of as myth until this very day.
01:01:29.380 --> 01:01:33.380
I won't go into a whole bunch of these.
01:01:33.380 --> 01:01:36.380
This is the famous Piri Reyes map in a Turkish museum.
01:01:36.380 --> 01:01:43.380
It shows the Antarctica region with all these rivers and inlets portrayed.
01:01:43.380 --> 01:01:46.380
Piri Reyes was an admiral.
01:01:46.380 --> 01:01:49.380
And he said he copied this map from older maps, which came from older maps.
01:01:49.380 --> 01:01:51.380
Nobody knows how far back those maps go.
01:01:51.380 --> 01:01:58.380
But the only problem is the Antarctic has been under about two miles of ice for the last 4000 years.
01:01:58.380 --> 01:02:01.380
So there's no way he could have drawn this map.
01:02:01.380 --> 01:02:03.380
Who drew the original map?
01:02:03.380 --> 01:02:05.380
I think it may have come from the Anunnaki times.
01:02:05.380 --> 01:02:10.380
And also, you had to be able to view it from the air to have drawn those maps.
01:02:10.380 --> 01:02:25.380
Anyway, the world of our museums, everybody, every museum has some kind of thing stuck in a drawer someplace that just doesn't fit the current paradigm.
01:02:25.380 --> 01:02:30.380
Exhibit H, astronomical exhibits.
01:02:30.380 --> 01:02:37.380
The Sumerians had a very good depiction of how our solar system came about.
01:02:37.380 --> 01:02:39.380
It would stand up under scrutiny today.
01:02:39.380 --> 01:02:41.380
We've already talked about that.
01:02:41.380 --> 01:02:48.380
Exhibit I, agriculture.
01:02:48.380 --> 01:03:04.380
Now, we are told, we are led to believe that agriculture came about from early farmers and Neolithic hunter-gatherers taking these seeds and domesticating them into the basic crops we know today.
01:03:04.380 --> 01:03:09.380
Wheat, emir, oats, barley, rice, corn, so on.
01:03:09.380 --> 01:03:14.380
I want to suggest to you that did not happen and could not have happened.
01:03:14.380 --> 01:03:20.380
Some of the fossilized seeds that we know of are about the size of a flea or a grain of salt.
01:03:20.380 --> 01:03:30.380
Now, you're going to tell me that some farmer who is struggling for existence picks up this little tiny thing that's inedible, has to be changed at the molecular level,
01:03:30.380 --> 01:03:35.380
has to have more chromosomes added, has to be softened, and has to do it over several generations.
01:03:35.380 --> 01:03:44.380
So he tells his son, this will not put food on your table, but go forth and domesticate this and tell your son to do that too.
01:03:44.380 --> 01:03:47.380
And perhaps in 300 generations we'll have food.
01:03:47.380 --> 01:03:58.380
I think the early humans were too concerned with living day to day of hunting and gathering food that was already available than to try to domesticate any kind of crop.
01:03:58.380 --> 01:04:02.380
And notice there have been no other major crops domesticated since then.
01:04:02.380 --> 01:04:10.380
We still eat wheat, barley, oats, emir, corn, without much change, some hybridization certainly.
01:04:10.380 --> 01:04:15.380
But we have the advantage today of having genetic knowledge, just like the Anunnaki did.
01:04:15.380 --> 01:04:21.380
The Sumerians said that agriculture and all the crops that came with it were gifts of the gods.
01:04:21.380 --> 01:04:26.380
I believe them. I believe we could have possibly domesticated these crops.
01:04:26.380 --> 01:04:28.380
Same way with animals.
01:04:28.380 --> 01:04:35.380
We're told that the cattle is domesticated from this wild thing called an auroch.
01:04:35.380 --> 01:04:41.380
This is a depiction of an auroch in the Lascaux cave, and this is what they think it might have looked like.
01:04:41.380 --> 01:04:46.380
A human would have come up to about the tail.
01:04:46.380 --> 01:04:49.380
I don't think we had a chance of domesticating this.
01:04:49.380 --> 01:04:51.380
I think we...
01:04:51.380 --> 01:04:54.380
I wouldn't attempt it.
01:04:54.380 --> 01:05:01.380
I would hunt this thing with a .308, but I wouldn't try to bring it into my home and try to domesticate it.
01:05:01.380 --> 01:05:04.380
I think that any domestication that happened happened at the genetic level.
01:05:04.380 --> 01:05:11.380
I think it happened in the garden of Aden, that botanical research place in Mesopotamia.
01:05:11.380 --> 01:05:23.380
And I think we were given cattle, goats, pigs, and all these other created animals and crops to tend for the Anunnaki and subsequently for ourselves.
01:05:23.380 --> 01:05:28.380
Well, any one of these you might be able to dismiss.
01:05:28.380 --> 01:05:35.380
But if you take them all together, I think you at least have to, when you're weighing that with the conventional knowledge,
01:05:35.380 --> 01:05:40.380
have to say this theory of human development has some merit.
01:05:40.380 --> 01:05:45.380
At least I'm going to remain an open-minded skeptic, and I hope you will remain an open-minded skeptic too.
01:05:45.380 --> 01:05:51.380
Two books to read, Zechariah Sessions, The Twelfth Planet, and Lloyd Pies.
01:05:51.380 --> 01:05:55.380
Everything You Know is Wrong. Great book.
01:05:55.380 --> 01:06:01.380
Will Hart also, Genesis Race.
01:06:01.380 --> 01:06:06.380
I won't go into this great deal. I sort of need to move on.
01:06:06.380 --> 01:06:09.380
Yes.
01:06:09.380 --> 01:06:15.380
Here's a picture of Enki, depicted off of a silver seal on the bottom, shown as a serpent again.
01:06:15.380 --> 01:06:23.380
And not because he had any evil intent, because he was regarded as a very wise, he was a scientist, and he knew how things worked.
01:06:23.380 --> 01:06:32.380
He was a geneticist. He was a metallurgist. He gave us metallurgy. He gave us astronomy, mathematics, the written language.
01:06:32.380 --> 01:06:38.380
I suspect also he gave us written music, and I'm grateful to him because I'm a musician, among other things.
01:06:38.380 --> 01:06:42.380
Have you ever wondered why we humans alone do music?
01:06:42.380 --> 01:06:47.380
I sit there sometimes playing in a band I play with, and go, why do I do music? Why do I enjoy music so much?
01:06:47.380 --> 01:06:54.380
None of the other primates do music. I think that's one of the gifts of the Anunnaki.
01:06:54.380 --> 01:07:03.380
Who were they? They were very robust physically. As you saw on the other cylinder seals, the males stood 10 to 12 feet tall.
01:07:03.380 --> 01:07:09.380
Actually, I think some of them may have been as tall as 15 feet. The females could range up to about 9 or 10 feet tall.
01:07:10.380 --> 01:07:16.380
What were they like? Well, some people say they look like us. I've turned that around. No, we look like them.
01:07:16.380 --> 01:07:30.380
And we share a common genetic code because of the brush that Tiamat and its satellite had with Earth many years ago.
01:07:30.380 --> 01:07:42.380
But more lately, I've come to realize that the hominid shape, head, two arms, two legs, standing upright, appears to be a universal shape.
01:07:42.380 --> 01:07:50.380
All of the sightings and abductions that we hear talk of are with hominids, the hominid shape.
01:07:50.380 --> 01:07:57.380
I'm beginning to think that the human shape is universal. And it makes sense because it's very efficient.
01:07:57.380 --> 01:08:04.380
We can walk around and handle things and pick things up. Moving on.
01:08:04.380 --> 01:08:13.380
The things that we refer to as their temples, the Sumerian temples, the Egyptian temples, I think were actually their living places.
01:08:13.380 --> 01:08:23.380
They abandoned them. When they abandoned them, we turned them into places to be revered. That's why they became temples.
01:08:23.380 --> 01:08:29.380
I think that was the point when we invented religion. We went from working for the gods to worshiping the gods.
01:08:29.380 --> 01:08:38.380
I don't want to offend anybody's religion. I've had some of my fair share of it myself. But I think that's where religion originated.
01:08:38.380 --> 01:08:44.380
When the gods were no longer in our lives, we had to have something to look up to. So we began worshiping.
01:08:44.380 --> 01:08:51.380
And that's where we get the concept of worship to this day. That's my take.
01:08:53.380 --> 01:09:03.380
And when the sons of the Anunnaki, and this is mirrored in the Hebrew account, saw the little humans that they had created,
01:09:03.380 --> 01:09:12.380
they saw some of the females and liked what they saw. And they began intermarrying with them.
01:09:12.380 --> 01:09:19.380
And the upper echelon, the higher ranks of Anunnaki did not like what they saw.
01:09:19.380 --> 01:09:26.380
And this is not according to me or Zechariah Sitchin. This is right in the Anum Elish. You can go read that.
01:09:26.380 --> 01:09:33.380
And the same thing, if you see it came into Genesis and then it's chapter six, I believe, where it talks about there were giants in those days.
01:09:33.380 --> 01:09:40.380
And the gods, the Nephilim did not like that their sons were intermarrying with this little being.
01:09:40.380 --> 01:09:43.380
Well, that story goes back to the Sumerian account.
01:09:43.380 --> 01:09:53.380
So the upper echelon in Liel and others said we need to put an end to this experiment. Their time on earth was drawing at a close anyway.
01:09:53.380 --> 01:10:00.380
And they knew something. They knew that earth was about to be flooded.
01:10:00.380 --> 01:10:08.380
They knew that there were some natural disasters about to happen. And they thought, well, we'll just leave the planet and leave this creature to its own devices.
01:10:08.380 --> 01:10:14.380
They've outlived their usefulness. We no longer need them. We'll let them perish in this coming flood.
01:10:14.380 --> 01:10:20.380
Nibiru was due for another pass through anyway, and they were getting ready to go off planet.
01:10:20.380 --> 01:10:30.380
And there were billions of tons, just like there is now, by the way. There's a two mile thick ice pack on the southern, on the Antarctic region.
01:10:30.380 --> 01:10:35.380
Then at that time, near the end of the last ice age, that was three miles thick.
01:10:36.380 --> 01:10:41.380
Much of the world's water supply was caught up in ice at the South Pole.
01:10:41.380 --> 01:10:49.380
So they thought that the gravitational forces caused by the passage of Nibiru would cause earthquakes and might shake loose that ice pack flooding the world.
01:10:49.380 --> 01:10:56.380
So they decided they were going to leave and leave us to perish.
01:10:57.380 --> 01:11:08.380
Time was about 10,500 BC and billions of tons on the on the Antarctic.
01:11:08.380 --> 01:11:17.380
This is probably about what it looked like. You could get a cross section of the Antarctic region.
01:11:17.380 --> 01:11:25.380
And you notice there's a shelf and there is a shelf today. It's very small. Don't worry. We're not going to be flooded anytime soon.
01:11:25.380 --> 01:11:31.380
But this may happen again in our distant future as more and more ice builds up on the ice pack.
01:11:31.380 --> 01:11:42.380
Millions of cubic miles of ice just ready to drop in. Have you ever dropped an ice cube into a glass and had it splash on your floor?
01:11:42.380 --> 01:11:50.380
The tsunami that happened last year in the Pacific was nothing compared with what would happen. And that's exactly what happened.
01:11:50.380 --> 01:11:55.380
The ice pack, once it crashed into the sea, would send water flooding northward.
01:11:55.380 --> 01:12:07.380
That's why we have so many accounts of floods throughout the world. China, South America, North America, certainly the Middle East.
01:12:07.380 --> 01:12:14.380
Because I think a flood actually did happen. Our ancestors did not hallucinate. They wrote down what they saw.
01:12:14.380 --> 01:12:24.380
And there's a very traumatic flood in our past. It might have looked something like that as the ice crashed into the sea, sending huge walls of water.
01:12:24.380 --> 01:12:38.380
Enlil had sworn everybody to secrecy. He's the God I love to hate. He wanted to do away with us.
01:12:38.380 --> 01:12:44.380
But Enki, he's the one who created us. He had developed an affection for us.
01:12:44.380 --> 01:12:56.380
And he took his favorite, who according to the Epic of Gilgamesh was Zia-Sudra, and said, I don't want my creation to perish.
01:12:56.380 --> 01:13:05.380
I want you to build a boat, a submersible boat. Take on it. And he didn't take two by two animals like the Hebrew account shows.
01:13:05.380 --> 01:13:13.380
He took grain. He took genetic material. He said, take this on board and survive. Take your family.
01:13:13.380 --> 01:13:18.380
And that's precisely what happened. He built some kind of submersible craft.
01:13:18.380 --> 01:13:23.380
And when the order was given, the gods lifted off. And this is again not according to me.
01:13:23.380 --> 01:13:33.380
This is according to the Anuma Elish and the Atra-Hasis and the Gilgamesh Epic. And the flood waters hit.
01:13:33.380 --> 01:13:38.380
The gods watched from outer space. And there are accounts of what they saw.
01:13:38.380 --> 01:13:51.380
There was weeping and wailing as they saw their former homes wash and flooded under several meters of mud.
01:13:51.380 --> 01:14:02.380
And all the humans killed off. After the flood waters subsided, they came back and found that there were still a remnant.
01:14:02.380 --> 01:14:12.380
In fact, the Zia-Sudra had survived. And farther inland, there were other small settlements of humans that had survived, living in these cave-like conditions.
01:14:12.380 --> 01:14:27.380
The excess humans, those who weren't useful in the fields, those who weren't useful to serve and work for the gods, who couldn't live in the villages for one reason or another, just overpopulation, were sent out, were thrown out of Eden, as it were.
01:14:27.380 --> 01:14:37.380
In fact, that's where that story came from, to being expelled from Eden, came from the excess, the surplus population of humans were sent out to live on their own devices.
01:14:37.380 --> 01:14:50.380
Well, these humans living in those conditions were, the Anunnaki took pity on them. And they thought, we're not ready to abandon Earth just yet for it.
01:14:50.380 --> 01:14:56.380
So as long as we're going to live here, even for another few thousand years, we need the help of the humans.
01:14:56.380 --> 01:15:10.380
So they gave us the rudiments of civilization and set us on that path of civilization so that we had agriculture, we had metallurgy, we had a written language we could pass stuff on.
01:15:10.380 --> 01:15:18.380
In fact, some of the early surviving clay tablets are textbooks, how to do things, how to make beer, too.
01:15:18.380 --> 01:15:25.380
And then shortly after that, we had a full civilization that really shouldn't be here.
01:15:25.380 --> 01:15:31.380
The only reason that we are here is because the Anunnaki gave us these things.
01:15:32.380 --> 01:15:42.380
This is Teculte Ninurta. He served a god called Nisku. And about 12, this is him in 1210 in Happy Times.
01:15:42.380 --> 01:15:51.380
In 1208 BC, just a few years later, this is another depiction of him kneeling before an empty throne.
01:15:51.380 --> 01:15:55.380
Excuse me.
01:15:55.380 --> 01:16:03.380
And the inscription that goes along with this says, what will I do when my master has gone away? What will I tell the people?
01:16:03.380 --> 01:16:10.380
The god he served, that he worked for, had gone. In fact, about this time, all the gods were departing Earth.
01:16:10.380 --> 01:16:17.380
They had all they needed from us, and it was time to go. So they left and left us on our own devices.
01:16:17.380 --> 01:16:27.380
I think from that point, we created religion and all the forms that we have today, whether you think they're functional or dysfunctional, we're stuck with them.
01:16:27.380 --> 01:16:33.380
The church, the governments we have stem from that time.
01:16:35.380 --> 01:16:44.380
Approach with caution. Humans live here. I heard the other day we just surpassed six and a half billion people.
01:16:44.380 --> 01:16:49.380
I think we crowded them off. There were just too many of us.
01:16:49.380 --> 01:16:54.380
And but they didn't leave entirely. I think they're still watching us.
01:16:54.380 --> 01:17:02.380
In fact, one of the terms for these beings throughout history has been watchers. In Sumerian, it was called Igigi.
01:17:02.380 --> 01:17:06.380
In the Hebrew, it actually refers to some watchers.
01:17:07.380 --> 01:17:14.380
I don't have to tell you this room. I have to really convince people out there that there are UFOs.
01:17:14.380 --> 01:17:22.380
But here's some. I'll just real quickly go through them. This is in England. Here's one taken in Rhode Island just a few years ago.
01:17:22.380 --> 01:17:30.380
Here's one in Ohio over a farm. This is taken. That picture was taken by our Mars Rover in the skies of Mars.
01:17:30.380 --> 01:17:35.380
This is a drawing by a Soviet cosmonaut. He said he saw this while he was in space.
01:17:35.380 --> 01:17:42.380
And this is the last picture taken by the Fogos satellite sent by the Russians before it was thrown out of control.
01:17:42.380 --> 01:17:45.380
Something was there that shouldn't have been there.
01:17:45.380 --> 01:17:50.380
And make of this what you will. I've heard some people say, oh, that's just a fake.
01:17:50.380 --> 01:17:56.380
And this is from Mexico. I've heard other people say, no, this is some of the best footage we've got of a UFO.
01:17:56.380 --> 01:18:04.380
I personally think this is an uncloked beam ship. Watch as he goes behind that building.
01:18:07.380 --> 01:18:11.380
If that's a fake, that's a damn good fake. I think it's real.
01:18:15.380 --> 01:18:17.380
That's rare footage.
01:18:17.380 --> 01:18:25.380
This is where I work. I work in Oak Ridge, very near the Y-12 weapons complex.
01:18:25.380 --> 01:18:32.380
If anybody knows anything about nuclear energy and nuclear weaponry, Y-12 is the place where they keep all the really hot stuff.
01:18:32.380 --> 01:18:35.380
It's the most secure place probably in this country.
01:18:35.380 --> 01:18:41.380
Nothing gets in or out of there unless you are escorted or a badge to go in it.
01:18:41.380 --> 01:18:45.380
And there's a no-fly zone. Nothing flies over it without permission.
01:18:45.380 --> 01:18:49.380
We were taking a picture of one of our dump trucks dumping at a waste site.
01:18:49.380 --> 01:18:52.380
And I happened to, I get to review a lot of pictures.
01:18:52.380 --> 01:18:57.380
And I saw this, and I saw something up in the sky. I don't know if you can see it at that magnification.
01:18:57.380 --> 01:19:01.380
And in that direction, just four miles down the road is the Y-12 weapons complex.
01:19:01.380 --> 01:19:04.380
I blew it up there a little bit.
01:19:04.380 --> 01:19:08.380
That's something over Y-12 that shouldn't be there.
01:19:08.380 --> 01:19:15.380
And if you look on Google, do a search for Y-12 or the Manhattan Project or Oak Ridge and UFOs,
01:19:15.380 --> 01:19:23.380
you're going to get a lot of hits because there have been a lot of hits, a lot of sightings over nuclear facilities.
01:19:23.380 --> 01:19:28.380
In fact, if you know the story about Minot Air Force Base and Malmstrom Air Force Base,
01:19:28.380 --> 01:19:35.380
there was an incident where UFOs appeared and then they shut down our entire nuclear capability at those sites.
01:19:35.380 --> 01:19:39.380
Those missiles were offline. They took our missiles offline.
01:19:39.380 --> 01:19:45.380
As if to say, be careful. We can do this to you.
01:19:45.380 --> 01:19:53.380
The upper picture is from the Cassini space probe that's Saturn down below and something in the sky that nobody wants to talk about.
01:19:53.380 --> 01:19:58.380
And I believe that's a Billy Myers picture in the lower, I'm not really sure.
01:19:58.380 --> 01:20:04.380
This is Haleakala, an astronomy telescope.
01:20:05.380 --> 01:20:10.380
And something in that rotation was seen in the skies that the astronomers said, we don't know what that was.
01:20:10.380 --> 01:20:15.380
It was very near Earth, too.
01:20:15.380 --> 01:20:17.380
I don't need to tell you that we're being watched.
01:20:17.380 --> 01:20:20.380
I have been for a long time, probably thousands of years.
01:20:20.380 --> 01:20:24.380
This is the classic case of the gray.
01:20:24.380 --> 01:20:29.380
I think this is what the Sumerians were referring to when they talked about Igigi
01:20:29.380 --> 01:20:32.380
or when the Hebrew Bible talks about the emissaries.
01:20:32.380 --> 01:20:34.380
I think they're talking about this being right here.
01:20:34.380 --> 01:20:36.380
And it's been around for many ages.
01:20:36.380 --> 01:20:42.380
This is from a wall in Egypt.
01:20:42.380 --> 01:20:46.380
I don't know if you can see that out there.
01:20:46.380 --> 01:20:48.380
It's at Saqqara.
01:20:48.380 --> 01:20:52.380
I think that's a gray being depicted right there.
01:20:52.380 --> 01:20:57.380
What are they watching? They're watching our behavior.
01:20:57.380 --> 01:21:03.380
When they created us, we got the good attributes along with the bad.
01:21:03.380 --> 01:21:14.380
Our history is full of religious wars, ancient religious wars, modern religious wars,
01:21:14.380 --> 01:21:16.380
riots of all kinds.
01:21:16.380 --> 01:21:20.380
We have a pretty healthy criminal class.
01:21:20.380 --> 01:21:22.380
But we also have some of the good.
01:21:22.380 --> 01:21:27.380
We have brilliant people who were born and people who have traits of altruism.
01:21:27.380 --> 01:21:34.380
We do art and we do music, as I said before.
01:21:34.380 --> 01:21:37.380
These are the good things we got.
01:21:37.380 --> 01:21:39.380
We have to learn how to balance this.
01:21:39.380 --> 01:21:50.380
And as I have...what the watchers are really watching has become more intense since 1945
01:21:50.380 --> 01:21:54.380
is our use of nuclear weapons.
01:21:54.380 --> 01:22:00.380
And I think that's why they warned us about the use of nuclear weapons.
01:22:00.380 --> 01:22:05.380
I think someday in the very near future, probably in my lifetime, in your lifetime,
01:22:05.380 --> 01:22:09.380
most people in this room, we're going to come face to face with them again.
01:22:09.380 --> 01:22:14.380
I think we're going to meet them sometime early this century to the mid-century.
01:22:14.380 --> 01:22:17.380
I hope I'm around to see it.
01:22:17.380 --> 01:22:23.380
I wonder what that's going to cause happen with our basic forms like our government.
01:22:23.380 --> 01:22:25.380
I'm not just talking about Washington, D.C.
01:22:25.380 --> 01:22:27.380
I'm talking about all governments.
01:22:27.380 --> 01:22:32.380
What will that do to the basic institution of religion, not just the Vatican, but all religions?
01:22:32.380 --> 01:22:35.380
What would that do to, say, Islam?
01:22:35.380 --> 01:22:39.380
What would that knowledge do to the Hindus?
01:22:39.380 --> 01:22:40.380
I have no idea.
01:22:40.380 --> 01:22:42.380
But we should be thinking about that.
01:22:42.380 --> 01:22:45.380
What would it do to our basic financial institution?
01:22:45.380 --> 01:22:52.380
Where would my 401K go if suddenly a saucer landed on the White House lawn?
01:22:52.380 --> 01:22:53.380
I have no idea.
01:22:53.380 --> 01:22:58.380
But more than those basic institutions, just our every day-to-day life,
01:22:58.380 --> 01:23:05.380
we would suddenly be confronted with the fact that we are not alone in the universe and never have been.
01:23:05.380 --> 01:23:12.380
This little jewel we live on is very precious.
01:23:12.380 --> 01:23:16.380
And I think they're telling us, take better care of it.
01:23:16.380 --> 01:23:23.380
I know if the UFO sat down outside on the streets today,
01:23:23.380 --> 01:23:26.380
people in this room would be much more accepting of it.
01:23:26.380 --> 01:23:29.380
But how is it going to affect the rest of humanity?
01:23:29.380 --> 01:23:31.380
I'm just going to leave you with that thought.
01:23:31.380 --> 01:23:33.380
I can't answer that question.
01:23:33.380 --> 01:23:38.380
And that's why I'm glad to see these conferences happen.
01:23:38.380 --> 01:23:40.380
This is certainly not the end.
01:23:40.380 --> 01:23:43.380
I think the story has yet to be written.
01:23:43.380 --> 01:23:47.380
And I thank you all very much for having me.
01:23:56.380 --> 01:23:58.380
Thank you.
