Ancient Traces: Mysteries in Ancient and Early History
Author: Michael Baigent
Scientists and archaeologists would often have us believe that we now know everything about our origins and our history. The truth is, we do not. Each year, new information is uncovered which upsets the comfortable, but confining, boundaries of our modern world. Ancient Traces reveals the discoveries which call into question many of the orthodox explanations of our past. Michael Baigent, co-author of the bestselling The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail, presents twenty separate mysteries to challenge our accepted view of history, among them. Problems with Evolution - after a hundred years of research, why is there still no fossil record proof of Darwin's famous theory? Ancient Mankind - could current scientific thinking be wrong about the date of our origins? The Pyramids and the Sphinx - the unexplained curiosities which haunt us still ... From Atlantis to alchemy, from living dinosaurs to the first city, Ancient Traces reveals a startling picture of humankind's very early existence, and asks: ... just how much do we really know?
