Raymond Drake presented in his book a fundamentally new look at the development of human civilization. Myths and chronicles of the Ancient East tell about supermen from heaven, about wars using fantastic weapons, about barbarism and worldwide cataclysms. The pulse of life beats throughout the Universe, and perhaps many centuries ago the Earth was visited by guests from other galaxies. Aliens guided people, married earthly women and gave scientific knowledge to humanity. The modern world is just another round of civilization; our future has already been in our past. If archaeologists discover evidence that the ancient gods were aliens, then we should be prepared for a new visit from aliens from outer space.
