He postulates that there was an ancient race or civilisation who were much more advanced than academia supposes and that we have lost much knowledge over the millennia. I've read a number of his books through the years but none for some time now.
I have to say, he makes a good case and it's absolutely intriguing to see all the sites. Despite a healthy dose of skepticism as regards what can only be called conspiracy theories, I'm still a total sucker for certain of the mysteries of our world - loved to read about the Knights Templar, etc., so I have enjoyed this so far! And yes - I agree with him (cynicism aside) - we have to be open to exploring what might seem like sometimes wild conjecture before just shutting down ideas. Puzzles are often solved with a bit of imagination, I would think!
I happen to agree with him, in principle anyway. if you travel around Egypt there are thousands of examples that an advanced civilization existed on this planet before what we now call the 'modern' era. All you have to do is look. The perfection and symmetry in the statues and temples could not have been done with hammers and chisels. No way.
