Book Description

Jun 1 1998
Could the story of mankind be far older than we have previously believed?  Using tools as varied as archaeo-astronomy, geology, and computer analysis of ancient myths.  Graham Hancock presents a compelling case to suggest that it is.

   In Fingerprints of the Gods, Hancock embarks on a worldwide quest to put together all the pieces of the vast and fascinating jigsaw of mankind's hidden past.  In ancient monuments as far apart as Egypt's Great Sphinx, the strange Andean ruins of Tiahuanaco, and Mexico's awe-inspiring Temples of the Sun and Moon, he reveals not only the clear fingerprints of an as-yet-unidentified civilization of remote antiquity, but also startling evidence of its vast sophistication, technological advancement, and evolved scientific knowledge.

  A record-breaking number one best-seller in Britain, Fingerprints of the Gods Contains the makings of an intellectual revolution, a dramatic and irreversible change in the way that we understand out past--and so our future.

And Fingerprints of the Gods tells us something more.  As we recover the truth about prehistory, and discover the real meaning of ancient myths and monuments, it becomes apparent that a warning has been handed down to us, a warning of terrible cataclysm that afflicts the Earth in great cycles at irregular intervals of time- a cataclysm that may be about to recur.

Graham Hancock is a must for those interested in the real History of humankind, without falling into fantasy, or hypothesis based on nothing, Graham does the work of a scientist and a investigator with an open mind, contrary to the typical archaeologists who continue to propagate wrong historic events every time they cannot explain with intelligence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fingerprints, or actual footsteps? Aug 24 2003
I have never read a book that stimulates my mind more than
"Fingerprints of the Gods". It's a true journey through time space and mythology, one that sucks you right in. There's no way you can put this book down. A truly wonderful piece of writing that will make you think; could this really happen? Have we as such a technologically advanced race actually forgotten an entire civilization. A civilization just as advanced, or maybe even more so, than our own? It makes you wonder why such obvious historical information has been so blatantly ignored. Anyone who is even remotely interested in ancient mythology should try this book. Whether you believe or not, it is guaranteed to make you think.

This book is full of scientific nonsense. The author should have educated himself a little about geological processes before writing it. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Not that good
This book is interesting in its assertion that there may have been an advanced civilization prior to the Aztecs, Egyptions, and so on. But it has to be taken with a grain of salt. Read more

He writes well and has numerous interesting ideas. However, single pieces of evidence do not a science make. Read more
