Based on Hancock's own investigations and interviews with archaeologists and astronomers, the book claimed survivors of this cataclysm, the giant flood remembered in myths all around the world, went on to settle in locations from Mexico to Egypt and impart their ancient knowledge to the other remaining humans.

"Let's get to grips with that first of all," he says. "The foundations upon which history is based look increasingly suspect. Let's no longer shroud ourselves in the illusion that [mainstream] historians and archaeologists are invincible."
There are, according to Hancock, two smoking guns. Firstly, naondiamonds - types of diamonds that result from a cosmic impact - were discovered recently in North America. In 2014, the Journal of Geology confirmed that this matter was formed 12,800 years ago.
"For someone who proposed [in Fingerprints of the Gods] a giant cataclysm between 12,000 and 13,000 years ago, it is a bit of a gift from the universe to have a bunch of very major scientists now saying that there was indeed a giant comet impact 12,800 years ago," he says.
Secondly, excavations at an archaeological site in Turkey called Göbekli Tepe have uncovered ruins that are at least 11,600 years old. That is more than 6,000 years older than other megalithic sites such as Stonehenge. A civilisation capable of the advanced architecture and art discovered at Göbekli Tepe is not supposed to have existed 11,600 years ago.
So what is the explanation?
"We're looking at a place where the survivors of a lost civilisation settled." References to these survivors described as sages, magicians or "mystery teachers of Heaven" can be found in various cultures, he adds.

The stones on PumaPunku are on the order of 1-200 tons.
The picture you show is from Baalbek and shows a stone weighing about 800-1000 tons.
The largest mobile/truck crane (Liebherr) can lift 1200 tons. The largest fixed/gantry crane (Taisun) can lift an eye popping 20,000 tons!!!
So we need to stop this Erik von Daniken insanity “we could not lift it with a bunch of our cranes today” It’s getting silly.
But let’s put all that aside. You see the stones there, how do YOU think they moved them?
Aliens.
duh...
The Sphinyx may be 800,000 years old.
Wasn’t Velikovsky the one who wrote first about this, “Worlds in Collusion”
Lifting and moving from a prepared site is one thing. Cutting that stone out of a mountain and moving it miles and miles to that location is another.
We could not do that today, I still maintain. (and if we could, it is only with the biggest industrial machinery we have- how did they do it 10,000 years ago?)

"Î¼Î¿Î½Î¿Î³ÎµÎ½Î®Ï 3439 is literally âone of a kind,â âonly,â âuniqueâ (unicus), not âonly-begotten,â which would be μονογÎννηÏÎ¿Ï (unigenitus), and is common in the LXX in this sense (e.g. Judg 11:34, Ps 21 (22):21, 24 (25):16, Tob 3:15). It is similarly used in the NT of âonlyâ sons and daughters (Lk 7:12, 8:42, 9:38), and is so applied in a special sense to Christ in Jn 1:14, 18, 3:16, 18, 1 Jn 4:9, where the emphasis is on the thought that, as the âonlyâ Son of God, He has no equal and is able fully to reveal the Father. We cannot enter here into the doctrinal aspects of the word, or into a discussion on the sources, Orphic or Gnostic, from which John is sometimes supposed to have drawn his use of it, but reference may be made to the art. by Kattenbusch âOnly Begottenâ in Hastingsâ DCG ii. p. 281f. where the relative literature is given. A few exx. of the title from non-Biblical sources will, however, be of interest. In an imprecatory tablet from Carthage of iii/A.D., Wünsch AF p. 1837, we findâá½ÏÎºÎ¯Î¶Ï Ïε Ïὸν θεὸν . . . Ïὸν μονογενῠÏὸν á¼Î¾ αá½Ïοῦ á¼Î½Î±ÏανÎνÏα, where the editor cites the great magical Paris papyrus, 1585 εἰÏάκοÏ
ÏÏν μοÏ
á½ Îµá¼·Ï Î¼Î¿Î½Î¿Î³ÎµÎ½Î®Ï. With this may be compared P Leid Vv. 34 (iii/iv A.D.) (= II. p. 21) εá½ÏαÏιÏÏῶ Ïοι κÏÏιε á½
[Ïι] μοι [á¼Î»Ï
Ïεν] Ïὸ á¼
γιον Ïνεῦμα, Ïὸ μονογενÎÏ, Ïὸ ζÏÏν. See also Vett. Val. p. 1132. An inscr. in memory of a certain Plutarchus, Kaibel 1464 (iii/iv A.D.) describes him as μοÏ
Î½Î¿Î³ÎµÎ½Î®Ï ÏÎµÏ á¼á½¼Î½ καὶ ÏαÏÎÏεÏÏι ÏίλοÏ. And the word is apparently used as a proper name in C. and B. i. p. 115, No. 17 (Hierapolis) Î¦Î»Î±Î²Î¹Î±Î½á½¸Ï á½ ÎºÎ±á½¶ ÎÎ¿Î½Î¿Î³Î¿Î½Î¹Ï Îµá½ÏαÏιÏÏῶ Ïῠθεῷ, where Ramsay thinks that we should probably read ÎονογÎÎ½Î·Ï or ÎηνογÎνηÏ. For the true reading in Jn 1:18 it is hardly necessary to refer to Hortâs classical discussion in Two Dissertations, p. 1ff. James Hope Moulton and George Milligan, The Vocabulary of the Greek Testament (London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1930), 416â417."
what the heck? weird formatting from FR right now!
aliens, again!
Got it. So aliens built advanced civilizations able to harness the immense energies required for inter stellar flight, possibly invented and build hyperdrives, human stasis, tractor beams, travelled light years to find Earth so they can... cut and move some large-ish stones.
Is that the working theory?
That, I agree with you! :-)
What other explanation can there be...????
HUH????
Actually I think some of these could be a ‘marker’ for other civilizations.
They came here from Orion, so they laid out a structure in the shape of how Orion looks from here.
It is big so you can see it, if you are from another planted and are doing a look around this planet- they are easy to spot.
Just a working theory though
