Ancient aliens visiting earth

Well, according to some serious UFO researchers there is plenty of evidence to suggest so. Figures of ‘Space people’ and UFOs, they say, are depicted as ancient aliens in cave drawings. Also they can be found on age-old pottery. Furthermore, they claim many myths and legends, and even the Bible and other sacred texts from around the world, contain corroborative evidence for such a startling theory. All we must do, they say, is stop treating these ancient texts and primitive art forms as works of fiction. Or imaginative nonsense, and start reading them as eye-witness accounts. Have extraterrestrials been visiting the earth since ancient times? Well, according to some serious UFO researchers there’s a distinct possibility. 

Corroborating evidence

Among corroborative evidence for this startling theory they cite ancient cave paintings, pottery, and sculpture. Myths, legends, and even passages of the Bible and other religious texts are considered evidence. All we must do, they say, is stop treating these sacred writings and primitive art forms as made-up stories or nonsense. We should consider them as actual eye-witness accounts.

In Chariots Of The Gods, another of his books, Von Daniken turns his attention to the Bible. He urges us to re-examine many of its ‘stories’ in light of our modern experiences of  the UFO phenomenon. In particular he draws our attention to the Old Testament Book of Ezekiel. In this particular text the prophet gives a  6th century account of watching a ‘Flaming Chariot’ descend in the desert beside the River Chebar in Babylon. It was amber, says the prophet. The color of metal and surrounded by fire folding in on itself. Later, he described how four objects came out of the  mysterious cloud, each a wheel within a wheel with a ring of eyes. Out of them came  four man-like creatures in suits of burnished brass, with crystal firmaments on their heads. According to some, Ezekiel could well be describing a classic UFO/alien encounter.

Ezekiel

To corroborate this theory even further, after reading about Ezekiel’s ‘UFO encounter’ in Von Daniken’s book, a respected NASA engineer, Joseph Blumrich, was intrigued enough to study the account further. He was later quoted as saying that Ezekiel’s UFOs had ‘…very credible dimensions and belong (s) to a stage of technology which modern man will not reach for some decades’!

Cave drawings and primitive carvings from all around the world provide even further evidence too, say researchers. Take Lussac, France, for example. There are ancient wall drawings of figures dressed in modern day clothes. At least that is what UFO researchers claim. The startling drawings were found deep in dark caves. Many of the caves are underwater today. The drawings are in an extremely awkward location. it is a mystery to experts how the artists could even see to mix their pigments and create the works. But who were the models for these primitive painters? Who were these contemporarily dressed figures? The figures primitive people went through so much trouble to depict? Furthermore, how did they even see to paint the pictures? Did they use mirrors to reflect light back into the dark interiors of the caves? Or did they have more advanced technology?

Ancient aliens in South Africa

There are also other drawings very similar to be found all over the world. In South Africa, for example, there is one such painting known as ‘The White Lady of Brandenberg’. This particular lady is depicted dressed in a short pullover, gloves, garters and slippers. Behind her is a male figure with some kind of pipe in his hand and wearing some kind of helmet. The UFOlogists maintain it is impossible for a primitive artist to foresee people wearing such items of clothing. So who were the models for such extraordinary works of ancient art? Were these ancient aliens?
