Over the years, many authors have advanced the view that Earth was visited by spacemen in ages past. There are many differences between the various scenarios which have been presented and collectively, they are known as the Ancient Astronaut theories. The most highly developed of these is the one put forward by Zecharia Sitchin.
Sitchin claims to have an advanced knowledge of ancient Middle-Eastern languages and to have used it to decipher early Sumerian tablets which tell an extraordinary tale of Earth's history and mankind's origins.
According to Sitchin, the Earth was created when a new planet, called Nibiru, inhabited by a race of powerful beings known as the Anunnaki, entered our solar system, causing massive disruption to the existing pattern of planetary interactions. After Nibiru collided with Uranus, Sitchin believes, some of the disturbed planetary matter coalesced in a different location, forming the Earth.
One day the Anunnaki landed on Earth in spaceships. They were interested primarily in mining Earth's gold. Nibiru, it seemed, suffered from some atmospheric disturbance and gold flecks could be used to mitigate the effect of the disturbance on the planet's inhabitants. After mining the Earth for some time on their own, the Anunnaki decided to genetically engineer a slave race to do the mining for them. According to Sitchin, that was us: humans. The Anunnaki created us by splicing some of their own genetic material with that of Earth's native
After some time during which we were forced to work as slaves in the gold mines, some of the Anunnaki chose to interbreed with humans, creating a hybrid race. Not all of the Anunnaki were happy about this, however. As a result, when Nibiru was due to pass close to Earth in its predictable long-range orbit, some of the Anunnaki chose not to warn Earth's inhabitants of the possible danger. Nibiru's proximity caused the Great Flood on Earth, almost wiping the human race out. Some Annunaki were sympathetic, however and took steps to ensure that we survived.
Sitchin believes that Nibiru continues its elliptical orbit around the sun, returning every 3600 years close to the Earth where its gravitational pull can unleash cataclysms. Furthermore, he thinks that major figures from the Anunnaki's history on Earth came to be worshipped as gods in the religions of Mesopotamia, the region where they first established their presence on this planet.

Much of this is right, but Sitchin is misinterpreting "Nibiru" and other things. Check out Michael S. Heiser's work on him. The fact of the matter is though, we were created by these other beings. HUMANS WERE AN EVENT NOT EVOLUTION!!!! The proof is in our own DNA and also with in the Starchild Skull. Then throw all ancient text, art, and megalithic structures on top of it and every UFO sighting and abduction case ever.... and there is your PROOF. There is so, so much more to this though....

the bible is in no way whatsoever a reliable historical source! how can it be, when so many different people wrote it, the language is ancient and coded, and it was put together by people who's aim was seemingly just to control the minds of others?
anyone who see's that as a reliable historical record is a damn fool
