The Anunnaki Chronicles: A Zecharia Sitchin Reader Hardcover – Illustrated, September 28, 2015

Yahoo News took time off from giving free publicity for STAR WARS to mention that scientists (isn't that a bit of a broad term?) discovered a new planet that they referred to as a Super Earth in our solar system. This was on Dec. 11 of this year and this statement received a lot of negative reactions in mails. One reaction was that this planet could not be in our solar system but might be in our galaxy.Another reaction mentioned the planet Nibiru or Planet X . . . but in a pejorative manner. He hoped that the Nibiru label would be quickly removed in order that the "True Believers" [quotes were his] would shut up. Since I was reading THE ANUNNAKI CHRONICLES at the time, I perked up. Zecharia Sitchin had been discussing Nirbiru in his articles and lectures compiled by his niece on the planet Nibiru (a "Planet of the Crossing"according to the ancient Sumerians) as well as the alien race the Anunnaki. Curiously, when I returned to the article about the Super Earth to read it again in its entirety, I discovered that it no longer existed. Someone had pulled it down. I still have the image of the planet on my Facebook timeline because I had saved it from Yahoo, but the article giving the details no longer exists. Why?Had I also not heard respected journalist/researcher Texas journalist Jim Marrs mention Nibiru, I might not have taken THE ANUNNAKI CHRONICLES: A ZECHARIA SITCHIN READER so seriously. Marrs is a scholarly journalist who provides notes and bibliographies to back up his findings, and Sitchin is a learned scholar who was evidently cut from the same cloth -- no sensationalized ideas were used to bilk the public, only actual evidence to support theories. I had also written reviews for GOODREADS on books about UFO sightings and government cover-ups, and while reading Sitchin's reader, I happened to watch an alien abduction film THE FOURTH KIND. Near the end of that film, we hear a tape of an alien's voice that sounds like Sumerian -- "the Holy Grail of dead languages," an expert in the film remarks.Janet Sitchin, Zecharia's niece, introduces and edits this tome -- a worthwhile edition, as another reviewer wrote, to one's personal library connection. Included here are unpublished articles, selections from chapters of his books, lectures, and letters to the NY Times. Her introductions to each section are often as interesting, if much briefer, than the articles themselves. His niece, a data-integration expert, is clearly no slouch in the intellect department herself. One thing she emphasizes about her uncle is the seriousness of his endeavors: he draws upon material in its original language (such as Hebrew) and does not only rely on translations that might be inaccurate. One thing he points out is that more professionals would be willing to support his claims and discoveries were it not for the fear that their careers would be in danger. Those of us who follow UFO sightings and learn about many government cover-ups should not be surprised at this.One question he poses regards how an ancient culture like the Sumerians could be become so advanced almost overnight unless they were influenced by visitors from space. As we have seen on the excellent program ANCIENT ALIENS, gods of different cultures might well be aliens who had superior knowledge and abilities -- technological or otherwise. The Sumerian pantheon of gods was headed by an Olympian Circle of 12, according to Sitchin, and to them our solar system had 12 members, not 9 as we believe. The Anunnaki (the giants on the Earth who had sex with mortal women and created offspring) were reportedly from the planet Nibiru. A moon of Nibiru had struck the plant Tiamat (named for a Sumerian god) and shattered it, creating the asteroid belt and even our planet Earth. Tiamat's moon Kingu became our moon."Sumerians . . ." writes Sitchin, "drew pictures of the aerial vehicles of the Anunnaki," ". . . a name from which the Book Genesis borrowed to create the term Anakim in the Bible. They were the Suns of the Gods who had married the daughters of Man on the eve of the Deluge; they were the Nefilim"(300-301). He shows an impression made by a cylinder seal on wet clay, an image that includes seven dots to represent Earth (Earth was the seventh planet to the Anunnaki) and six dots angles of another image which could represent Mars, the sixth planet.Whether you are a believer in UFOs, which I was before I ever read Sitchin, or a lover of mythology, which I used to teach in China as well as in the US, you will find Sitchin fascinating and informative reading. You might want to read his other, well-known books before reading this one, instead of approaching Sitchin backwards as I did. However you decide to become acquainted with Sitchin, I recommend that you do so.

The experts will tell you it’s bunk, but some other experts will also tell you a certain vaccine is safe and effective…. I take this book with a grain of salt but it’s a great read and on every page I find myself thinking “huh, yeah that’s quite a coincidence”. So I suggest it’s worth reading if your into the sort of thing, It’s an easy read and very well put together.

Great thought-provoking book. Great read!

I have read "The Anunnaki Chronicles" with special interest and to the fullest of my satisfaction. It has raised my appetite for the specific books from which the extracts were drawn. Sitchin's multi-generational research work brings us the history which calms the nerves reflects reality as it should be. It confirms to the inquiring mind that ancient writings are not myths after all as portrayed by some academics who do not want to openly come out in the open and concede that the ancients told their stories as they saw how. Sitchin offers a large amount of evidence obtained from archaeological sites and museums around the world in support of his theories, while categorically demonstrating that flying machines were used for easy transportation around the globe at a time when humans are believed to have been primitive. He also shows figurines of "humans" wearing sophisticated space-travel gear and communication devices which we are have only begun to discover as evidence of advanced societies having visited earth thousands of years ago.He believes the same "people" will one day return. And this concept is in accordance with all the Bible and Q'uran where it is clear that the Creator will come again to judge his People. This cannot be mere myth, but it is something which should keep us thinking our preparedness to receive the Visitors that already entered our solar system and now using their robots in their preparatory interactions with the human race.Are we ready to meet them? Anyone wishing to answer this question should first read "The Anunnaki Chronicles" by Zecharia Sitchin.

Excellent condition.

I am pleased to report that all my Christmas orders have been delivered, some ahead of time. Except for the canvasart. I have someone to assist me with two (2) returns. The canvasart & dog stop barking collar. (Too big). 🙏

Remarkable and outstanding theses regarding the possibility of ufos and the reference to their presence through out the Bible, antique mythologies from the Sumerian, the Egyptians, the Greeks, the Olmecs, Mayan, Aztecs and the different Andean cultures of what is today Peru and Bolivia.It makes a compelling case worth studying and discussing.Takes into account representations of space travelers and winged men from ancient monuments from all over the world.

People will say to read this after you read Sitchin's Earth Chronicles. I say read this first.Why? Sitchin is very deep into the science of the linguistics, archeology, etc. The Earth Chronicles are thick with data and that my deflect some readers.This book is they why with some exposure to the elements of his work. I think this prepares people for what the will find in the Earth Chronicles and why he wrote them.If this book doesn't activate your curiosity into the things that Sitchin was delving into then you would never get through one of his books. It has the hooks as to why the subject my interest you and why it interested Sitchin.Here is the thing about Sitchin. Even if you can't believe in the work that he is putting before you, it can be taken as mythological science-fiction. What in the past would have been called hard science-fiction. The kind of science-fiction written by professional scientists with science built into it.So yeah, this is Primer. It give you they why and a basic framework to fill in with the details of the Earth Chronicles.Enjoy.
