Hermes Trismegistus is the alleged author of the Corpus Hermeticum. From the teachings of Thoth of ancient Egypt (and Hermes himself of ancient Greece), the Hermetic Principles are described as the 7 natural laws of the Universe.
Graham Hancock is respected researcher in ancient civilizations. His books have sold millions of copies and have been translated into 27 different languages. Some of his greatest research and findings have revealed many facts, secrets and knowledge of ancient Egypt. Some of this has been described as ‘truly mind-blowing’.
Sumer is the earliest known civilization in the historical region of Mesopotamia, said to have emerged around 6000 years ago. Based on recent research the Sumerians could have been around much longer ago than this. For example, Sumer is meant to predate ancient Egypt and research suggests that ancient Egypt was prevalent 12,000 years ago.
Gobekli Tepe of Sanliurfa (southeast Turkey) is the world’s oldest Megalithic site. It’s a unique, ancient complex that has gained lots of attention, as it brings question to the current views of science and history.
In an interview with Graham Hancock, he discusses his findings on the origins of different civilizations throughout history. This includes scientific evidence that matches up with Plato’s words of how Atlantis was flooded.
According to many texts, Atlantis was an old empire that got wiped out around 9,000 years before Plato’s time. Due to its mysteries, it has been central to lots of debate and interest.
‘Many researchers have found ancient texts that depict a different history of civilization than that explained in most mainstream teachings.’ As these stories are so different from mainstream teachings, they can be easy to dismiss. However, it is worth listening to the research people have done and forming your own opinion.
The Emerald Tablets were written by Thoth, a leader of ancient Egypt that is often referred to as ‘a God’. These tablets contain ancient wisdom on how reality and the Universe work, with reference to the Hermetic Principles. ‘Acknowledging that they were created on an imperishable material, suggests that they held the knowledge in high regards and is less likely to be fable like some critics suggest.’
