Zecharia Sitchin - A Quick Introduction

 

Zecharia Sitchin is an accomplished Jewish Scholar whose knowledge of modern and ancient Hebrew, other Semitic and European languages is second to none.

He has spent a lifetime studying the Old Testament and the history and archeology of the Near East.

Sitchin has researched and re-translated many of the ancient tablets from the most ancient cities of Sumeria, Babylon and Arcadia (now mostly in Iraq) and his revelations about the colonization of Earth by peoples from a Nibiru, a 12th planet in our solar system about 450,000 years ago have proved to be highly controversial in the scientific and religious world.

However, as fantastic as his theories might sound at first, the compelling evidence that he brings into play from the ancient documents that he has translated, chronologically verified in many ways by the Old Testament, are very logical.

Although ridiculed a lot by the scientific world when it was first published 30 years ago, Zecharia Sitchin's first book "The 12th Planet" and the subsequent books, collectively called "The Earth Chronicles" are now being taken more seriously.

So much has changed in the last 30 years in our knowledge of the ancient world. There are numerous documentaries on The Discovery Channel and History Channel covering new discoveries about the ancient world, not just the Greeks, Romans and Egyptians, but older civilizations that pre-date these, and every year new artifacts are being discovered, and we are being made aware of the deeper understandings of the technological levels of these peoples.

DON'T MISS THE VIDEO AT THE END OF THIS LENS on The Return Of The 12th Planet, Nibiru. It's very scary...

The 12th Planet - Book 1 of The Earth Chronicles 

Twelfth Planet: Book I of the Earth Chronicles (The Earth Chronicles)

This is the first book of "The Earth chronicles" series in which Zecharia Sitchin tears the man's origins apart and puts them in a whole new perspective.

Over the years, startling evidence has been unearthed revealing the existence of a superior race of beings who once inhabited our world. These travelers from the stars arrived eons ago, and planted the genetic seed that would ultimately blossom into a remarkable species--the human being.The product of 30 years of research, this book argues that humanity sprang from extraterrestrial forebears.

Amazon Price: $7.99 (as of 07/26/2008)

The Stairway To Heaven - Book 2 of The Earth Chronicles 

The Stairway to Heaven: Book II of the Earth Chronicles (The Earth Chronicles)

After years of painstaking research--combining recent archaeological discoveries with ancient texts and artifacts--noted scholar Zecharia Sitchin has identified the legendary Land of the Gods, and provides astounding new revelations about the Great Pyramids, the Sphinx, and other mysterious monuments whose true meanings and purposes have been lost for eons. Illustrated with maps, diagrams and photos.

Amazon Price: $7.99 (as of 07/26/2008)

The Wars Of Gods And Men - Book 3 of The Earth Chronicles 

The Wars of Gods and Men: Book III of the Earth Chronicles (The Earth Chronicles)

Sitchin brings myth and reality into synchrony in this exciting and credible history of Old Testament times. You'll never again accept the hogwash that the Giza pyramids were the burial places of (or even built by!) Egyptian pharoahs. And his explanation of the demise of Sumer sheds a bright light on the origins of the Hebrews and other biblical tales.

Amazon Price: $7.99 (as of 07/26/2008)

The Lost Realms - Book 4 of The Earth Chronicles 

The lost realms: Book IV of the Earth Chronicles (The Earth Chronicles)

In this, the remarkable and thoroughly researched fourth volume of THE EARTH CHRONICLES, author Zecharia Sitchin uncovers the long-hidden secrets of the lost civilizations of the pre-Columbian Americas and offers documentation of the giant gods who spawned the greatness of the Incans, Mayans, and Aztecs -- the Anunnaki -- "those who from Heaven to Earth came."

Amazon Price: $7.99 (as of 07/26/2008)

When Time Began - Book 5 of The Earth Chronicles 

When Time Began: Book V of the Earth Chronicles (The Earth Chronicles)

Why was Stonehenge rebuilt and rearranged between 2100 and 2000 B.C.--and how did its realignment relate to startling occurrences in ancient Sumer during the same period? This is just one of the fascinating puzzles addressed by Sitchin in his latest highly documented, meticulously researched work, making a fascinating case for the involvement of alien intelligence. Original.

Amazon Price: $7.99 (as of 07/26/2008)

The Cosmic Code - Book 6 of The Earth Chronicles 

cosmic code: Book VI of the Earth Chronicles (The Earth Chronicles)

Book VI of the Earth Chronicles, "The Cosmic Code", continues Zecharia Sitchin's saga of the Nefilim and their influence on the fate of mankind. In his usual style of inciteful speculation and careful culling of evidence from ancient materials, Sitchin has added a number of new threads to the tapestry of the extraterrestrial intervention hypothesis.

Amazon Price: $7.99 (as of 07/26/2008)

Divine Encounters: A Guide to Visions, Angels and Other Emissaries  

Divine Encounters: A Guide to Visions, Angels and Other Emissaries

This absorbing history of man's encounters with higher beings finds its basis in the interpretations of legends, Bible stories and myths that Zecharia Sitchin re-interprets through his research and theories. The author offers insights into man's early encounters with beings from the Twelfth Planet and their interference in human destiny.

Genesis Revisited  

Genesis Revisited

Space travel . . . Genetic engineering . . . Computer science . . . Astounding achievements as new as tomorrow. But stunning recent evidence proves that as these ultramodern advances were known to our forfathers millions of yrsterdays ago . . . as early as 3,000 years before the birth of Christ!

The Lost Book of Enki: Memoirs and Prophecies of an Extraterrestrial God  

The Lost Book of Enki: Memoirs and Prophecies of an Extraterrestrial god

In his previous works, Sitchin compiled the complete story of the Anunnaki's impact on human civilization in peacetime and in war from the fragments scattered throughout Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Hittite, Egyptian, Canaanite, and Hebrew sources--the "myths" of all ancient peoples in the old world as well as the new. Missing from these accounts, however, was the perspective of the Anunnaki themselves. What was life like on their own planet? What motives propelled them to settle on Earth-and what drove them from their new home? Convinced of the existence of a now lost book that formed the basis of ancient Sumerian texts holding the answers to these questions, the author began his search for evidence. Through exhaustive research of primary sources, he has here re-created tales as the memoirs of Enki, the leader of these first "astronauts." What takes shape is the story of a world of mounting tensions, deep rivalries, and sophisticated scientific knowledge that is only today being confirmed. An epic tale of gods and men unfolds, challenging every assumption we hold about our creation, our past, and our future.

Ancient Astronauts or The Work Of God? 

Was the earth and mankind created literally as in the Bible, or is there a lot of man's pre-history that is only now coming to light?

Were the Gods of Old, the Gods of the most ancient civilizations (that we know of) extraterrestrial visitors, or was man's evolution purely of earth?

Wow. I'd really like to explore his writings further. I used to believe very strongly in the possibility of ancient astronauts. Then I stood beneath the dome at St. Paul's in London and it hit me just how much humans can accomplish and how little they are really given credit for.

Hi Poddy,
Good lens and an interesting subject.I've known of Stitchin for a little while now and I think he's on to something,especially his theories on planet X(which I suspect might also be the star described as wormwood in the Bible).Still not sure of his theories on creation but I do think that the history of the earth is radically different from what most of us have been led to believe so it's good to see somebody challenging the normal beiefs.
Maybe someday all will be known :).

kelci_a_thryce

I've not yet read Stitchin's work. I've been developing my own theories in all of my measely 35 years. I will be sure to consult his work before endeavoring to move forward with my own.

Either way, I'm certain that our ancient beginnings provide the answer to our eternal future...of course, whether past, present or future, open eyes and open minds must prevail in order to find any of it, ay?

I agree that Sitchin may have take some huge leaps, but the whole picture seems to fit together very well in so many ways. I would love for a find somewhere that proves a lot of the pre-history story, something that proves some of the theories. It's a shame so many of the ancient documents have been lost over the centuries.

Good lens! I've read all of Sitchin's books and find them intriguing, but I believe that Sitchin takes huge leaps between the evidence and some of his conclusions. Act on your dream! JD

Excellent lens. I am a fan of Sitchin and his theory about the origin of civilization is intriguing.

Return Of The 12th Planet (Nibiru) 

This video is very enlightening, and very scary. There have been a lot of documentaries lately on Armageddon, The End Of Days, and a major cataclism affecting the Earth in the year 2012. Many ancient calendars predict this accurately, including the Sumerian calendar.

Please watch this video and be afraid, be very afraid, then pass the word around and do your own investigation.

Fact or fiction? Fiction I hope, but the evidence is there from ancient times, it happened before 3,500 years ago.

Below is a list of some of the many web sites covering the life and works of Zecharia Sitchin and covering ancient civilizations.

I have included not only sites that support his theories, but those that do not and attempt to prove that hos research is in error.

Fact is, even if not everything in Earth's past is as he describes, there is more and more evidence that much of it may well be true.

Interesting Discussion Regarding Earth Changes and 2012
I am currently researching several other countries to live in. All in Central or South America. Why ? For most of you, I am way out on a limb on this subject but, massive Earth changes will most likely occur on December 21, 2012. Although I have seen multiple massive UFO's flying over the Hudson River Valley near West Point years ago, my belief that we are not alone in this galaxy has no bearing on approaching Earth changing events.

About poddys



I am an English guy who moved to the USA in 1994, spent 12 years in Indiana, then moved to South Florida in 2005.  I have a background in computers, have run my own web sites since 1998, spend more time working than I would like (as do we all)...

I enjoy travel and have travelled a lot in the past, spending a year in New Zealand, plus 12 years of frequent travel to Central and South America and the Caribbean for work.  Meeting a lot of people from different cultures and experiencing different ways of life has taught me that wealth or background do not make a good person, neither does race, colour or religion.  I have met some wonderful people on my travels, and one of the best things I have found is that laughter is one of the best ways to make friends. 

I love humor, and have run a jokes mailing list for the last 7 years, helping make thousands of people laugh around the world.

I have been interested in ancient civilizations since I was in my teens. I never imagined that I would ever do any exciting travelling, but then had the opportunity to work in Central America, allowing me to visit the great Mayan ruins at Tikal (Guatemala) and Copan (Honduras) as well as lesser ones in El Salvador. I also have been fortunate enough to visit the pyramids outside Mexico City at Teotihuacan.

One of my main interests is Ancient History. The Greeks, Romams and Egyptians of course, plus the Mayans and Incas, but my main interest lies with pre-history, Sumeria, Babylon, and the cradle of civilisation.

It's a fascinating subject, reading up about things like Atlantis, the Origins of Mankind, whether the Gods Of Old came from another planet, whether there were highly advanced civilisations on earth before the great flood, etc etc. You can read more of this by visiting my Zecharia Sitchin lens. I hope you will.
