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. "A fancy piece of historical sleuthing . . .
intriguing and entertaining and sturdy enough to give a long pause for thought."-Kirkus Reviews
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 Tihuanaco 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 bestseller in Britain Fingerprints of the Gods contains the makings
of an intellectual revolution a dramatic and irreversible change in the way that we understand
our past-and so our future. And Fingerprints of God 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. "Readers will hugely enjoy their quest in these pages of inspired
storytelling."-The Times (UK)
