This episode kicks off a 10-part series that delves into the Anunnaki story from a scientific and archaeological viewpoint, moving beyond typical conspiracy theories. We explore the historical and linguistic roots of the Anunnaki, offering a detailed examination of ancient texts and the theories derived from them. We discuss the Anunnaki theory by Zecharia Sitchin, which suggests that 445,000 years ago, extraterrestrials known as the Anunnaki came from Nibiru in search of gold. This led to the creation of humans for labor, with figures like Enki and Enlil playing pivotal roles. The narrative includes events like the Anunnaki mutiny and the Great Flood, within the framework of Sitchin's theory. While some elements in Sitchin's "Lost Book of Enki" are fictional, his work has highlighted ancient Mesopotamian history. We provide context on how Sumerian mythology and cuneiform tablets shaped today's Anunnaki narrative. I share my evolving views over years of study, underscoring the enduring value of this material for understanding the Anunnaki's origins and development. This series is not just about ancient aliens; it's about interpreting archaeology and myths with scientific reasoning. We'll discuss the VA243 cylinder seal, Sitchin's Sumerian cosmology interpretation, and the implications of ancient astronaut theories. Join us for a well-researched journey into Anunnaki, Sumerian mythology, and the ancient astronaut hypothesis. Understand the origins, evidence, and speculations behind these ideas. #Anunnaki #ZechariaSitchin #Sumerianmythology #Nibiru #ancientastronaut #archaeology #Enki #Enlil #Sumeriancosmology #VA243cylinderseal See show notes: https://inlet.fm/anunnaki/episodes/687d2f1853276b5678bc5d4c Learn more about your ad choices.
