There Were Giants Upon the Earth cover

In whose genetic image were we made? From his first book The 12th Planet on, Zecharia Sitchin has asserted that the Bible's Elohim who said "Let us fashion The Adam in our image and after our likeness" were the gods of Sumer and Babylon - the Anunnaki who had come to Earth from their planet Nibiru. The Adam, he wrote, was genetically engineered by adding Anunnaki genes to those of an existing hominid, some 300,000 years ago. Then, according to the Bible, intermarriage took place: "There were giants upon the Earth" who took Adam's female offspring as wives, giving birth to "heroes of renown." Sitchin is appealing to the Natural History Museum in London to allow an internationally coordinated DNA extraction from the skeletal remains of the goddess Puabi (discovered at the Royal Tombs of Ur) in order to compare her genome to ours. As revealed in Zecharia Sitchin's new book Puabi is a direct descendant of extraterrestrial visitors to Earth. If tested, her bones could reveal the DNA differences that represent our genetic Missing Link - that small but crucial group of "alien genes" that upgraded us from wild hominids to modern man some 300,000 years ago. . Reveals the existence of physical evidence of alien presence on Earth in the distant past . Identifies and describes the demigods, such as Gilgamesh, descended from these visitors . Outlines the tests of this physical evidence of alien presence that could unlock the secrets of health, longevity, life and death

“Reflects the highest levels of scientific knowledge . . .” * Science & Religion News *
“Exciting . . . credible . . . most provocative and compelling.” * Library Journal *
“One of the most important books on Earth’s roots ever written.” * East West Journal *
“Sitchin is a zealous investigator into man’s origins . . . a dazzling performance.” * Kirkus Reviews *
“For thousands of years priests, poets, and scientists have tried to explain how man was created. Now a recognized scholar has come forth with a theory that is the most astonishing of all.” * United Press International *
“Utilizing the Bible (which Sitchin also provides some Hebrew words and the English mis-translations), Sumerian clay tablets and/or cylinders, as well as some other ancient texts, the author presents his case of how man (modern day humans) came to be. . . . I recommend this book for those who are interested in aliens, ancient history, and for those who can handle a lot of detailed information. I enjoyed the book.” * Jan, Reality Undefined, June 2010 *
“Drawing on a vast range of scholarship as well has his [Zechariah Sitchin] grasp of ancient languages and archaeology, he asserts that two of the tombs of Ur contained the remains of an Annunaki goddess Puabi, which actually still exist in the Natural History Museum. . . an intriguing story.” * The Scientific & Medical Network, UK, December 2010 *
