America Before: The Key to Earth’s Lost Civilization
by Graham Hancock

نویسنده: Graham Hancock

Was an advanced civilization lost to history in the global cataclysm that ended the last Ice Age? Graham Hancock, the internationally bestselling author, has made it his life’s work to find out–and in America Before, he draws on the latest archaeological and DNA evidence to bring his quest to a stunning conclusion.

We’ve been taught that North and South America were empty of humans until around 13,000 years ago – amongst the last great landmasses on earth to have been settled by our ancestors. But new discoveries have radically reshaped this long-established picture and we know now that the Americas were first peopled more than 130,000 years ago – many tens of thousands of years before human settlements became established elsewhere.

Hancock’s research takes us on a series of journeys and encounters with the scientists responsible for the recent extraordinary breakthroughs. In the process, from the Mississippi Valley to the Amazon rainforest, he reveals that ancient “New World” cultures share a legacy of advanced scientific knowledge and sophisticated spiritual beliefs with supposedly unconnected “Old World” cultures. Have archaeologists focused for too long only on the “Old World” in their search for the origins of civilization while failing to consider the revolutionary possibility that those origins might in fact be found in the “New World”?

America Before: The Key to Earth’s Lost Civilization is the culmination of everything that millions of readers have loved in Hancock’s body of work over the past decades, namely a mind-dilating exploration of the mysteries of the past, amazing archaeological discoveries and profound implications for how we lead our lives today.

A culmination A brilliant culmination of 25 years of work. Eloquent , elegant and sublime writing. A well presented thoroughly documented book that tackles some difficult questions regarding human prehistory . Cultural and genetic inheritance and similarities are challenged and reevaluated in light of new data from a variety of disciplines including Anthropology , Geology , Paleontology and Genetics. Many of Graham Hancocks previous books are uncanny in their validation of this wonderful book. Graham                                                                                                  rated it: 5.0 from 5.0

Wow! Anyone who has been curious about the “lost” knowledge of the Aztecs, Incas, Egyptians, and others needs to read this book. Anyone interested in the Mound Builders of the Mississippian, or the sudden disappearance of the Clovis people or Megafauna in the Americas need to read this book. It is the last of a string of books challenging the accepted theories of Archeology by Hancock and the best!
