Fingerprints of the Gods: The Evidence of Earth's Lost Civilization

1996

by Graham Hancock

Could the story of mankind be far older than we have previously believed? Using tools as varied as archaeo-astronomy, geology, and computer analysis of ancient myths, Graham Hancock presents a compelling case to suggest that it is.

In Fingerprints of the Gods, Hancock embarks on a worldwide quest to put together all the pieces of the vast and fascinating jigsaw of mankind’s hidden past. In ancient monuments as far apart as Egypt’s Great Sphinx, the strange Andean ruins of Tihuanaco, and Mexico’s awe-inspiring Temples of the Sun and Moon, he reveals not only the clear fingerprints of an as-yet-unidentified civilization of remote antiquity, but also startling evidence of its vast sophistication, technological advancement, and evolved scientific knowledge.

Fingerprints of the Gods contains the makings of an intellectual revolution, a dramatic and irreversible change in the way that we understand our past—and so our future. As we recover the truth about prehistory, and discover the real meaning of ancient myths and monuments, it becomes apparent that a warning has been handed down to us, a warning of terrible cataclysm that afflicts the Earth in great cycles at irregular intervals of time—a cataclysm that may be about to recur.

Ride the Wind

Ride the Wind is the extraordinary tale of Cynthia Ann Parker and the final days of the Comanche nation. In 1836, at the tender age of nine, Cynthia Ann was kidnapped by the Comanche from her family's settlement. She grew up among them, mastering their ways and embracing their culture. Except for her brilliant blue eyes and golden mane, she was in every way a Comanche woman, known as Naduah—Keeps Warm With Us.

This story is not only about Cynthia Ann's transformation but also about a proud and innocent people whose lives pulsed with the very heartbeat of the land. It is a poignant chronicle of a way of life that has vanished forever. The narrative will thrill you, absorb you, and touch your soul, as you celebrate the beauty and mourn the end of the great Comanche nation.
