3. The Chronology of the Cosmic War and the Ancient Texts
If there are
“inconvenient artifacts” tens, even hundreds, of millions of years
old, or in one instance, billions of
years old, and if these show evidence of machining and therefore of
technology, then one answer immediately
presents itself from the ancient texts: there were “others” here,
our genetic cousins perhaps, who were clearly civilized, possessed
of a technology, and perhaps every now and then, directly
intervening in the course of human development and
evolution.
And if this be the
case, as Cremo’s and Thompson’s evidence clearly suggests,
then we have found the probable and ultimate
origin and reason for why Native American “myths” of various ages
of creatures and different “humanities” was so broadly accurate,
for they did ultimately stem from an advanced culture in “high
antiquity” that actually observed the “monsters” and wars described
in their legends.
Let us look closer at
the chronological problem now posed by four entirely different data
sets:
Is there a way to harmonize and
synthesize these very different models of human history? And
if so, what agenda or agendas might
that harmonization suggest was operative at different points of
history and in different regions and cultures?
1. the data set of modern genetics indicating the probable origin of modern man, Homo sapiens sapiens, approximately 150,000 years ago “out of Africa”;
2. the data presented by certain ancient texts as to the significant date of approximately 200,000 years ago;
3. the data presented by geological and astronomical evidence that I recounted in The Cosmic War; and finally,
4. the anomalous and “inconvenient artifacts” presented by Cremo and Thompson.
In my previous book
The Cosmic War, I stated the following
about the chronological problem, and the above list of disparate
data sets:
In order to tie together all the disparate pieces that I believe may form components of this gigantic scenario of cosmic war and catastrophe, of giants and chimeras, of “gods” and men and Nephilim, it is essential to paint in very broad strokes. While I do entertain discussion of broad chronological and other scientific and archaeological considerations, I do not enter into lengthy examinations of disciplines related to and affected by the Cosmic War hypothesis, such as evolutionary biology, anthropology, or even theology, philosophy, comparative religion, and esoteric or occult history. That such fields are affected by this hypothesis should be obvious. But to discuss each of these implications in detail would not only require several lengthy tomes in their own right, it would also distract attention from the main themes of the scenario...Similarly, I do not attempt to reconstruct a whole detailed chronology of an alternative “pre-history” of extraterrestrial contact, intervention, wars, and so on... for a very simple reason. The Cosmic War hypothesis has not hitherto been adequately advanced or explored in its own right, so it would seem best to ascertain its very broad outlines and progression and to put them forward here as a kind of prima facie case, and then to work out the detailed chronology at some later point.513
This is now that
“later point,” and as the focus in that book was the texts and
physics, so the focus in this one is
the texts and biology and
history.
With these remarks in
hand, and on the basis of the findings of the previous chapters of
this book, we may lay out a more
detailed chronology, commenting, as we proceed on the possible
agendas at work.
