Ancient Aliens – The Visitors 4 of 9
Written by Mark Steinhouser on May 22nd, 2011
History Channel Ancient Aliens – The Visitors According to ancient alien theorists, extraterrestrials with superior knowledge of science and engineering landed on Earth thousands of years ago, sharing their expertise with early civilizations and forever changing the course of human history.Ancient alien theory grew out of the centuries-old idea that life exists on other planets, and that humans and extraterrestrials have crossed paths before. In 1968, the Swiss author Erich von Däniken published Chariots of the Gods?, which became an immediate bestseller. In it, he put forth his hypothesis that, thousands of years ago, space travelers from other planets visited Earth, where they taught humans about technology and influenced ancient religions. He is regarded by many as the father of ancient alien theory, also known as the ancient astronaut theory.Most ancient alien theorists, including von Däniken, point to two types of evidence to support their ideas. The first is ancient religious texts in which humans witness and interact with gods or other heavenly beings who descend from the sky—sometimes in vehicles resembling spaceships—and possess spectacular powers. The second is physical specimens such as artwork depicting alien-like figures and ancient architectural marvels like Stonehenge and the pyramids of Egypt. If aliens visited Earth in the past, could they make an appearance in the future? For ancient alien theorists, the answer is a resounding yes. They believe that, by …

How about someone with a different skin color than yours? Do you want to kill them or beat them up? How about someone with different religious beliefs? Wanna beat them up? How about someone who has a job you don’t like? Think you need to beat them up to express your displeasure?

@shoshanish Well, don’t tire yourself out on the first one; there are 50 or 60 other people on this series who had something to say about his hair, stray tan, or whatever. So, you seriously think violence is a proper or acceptable response to someone who expresses an opinion different than yours? Do you think it would be a very interesting world if everyone were little carbon copies of you?

There is a void in human history.

@N9NEseventeen man, his i want his hair ahaaaaa
May 22nd, 2011 at 9:18 am
@marianware Wow! Mirror, mirror on the wall, whose the childish 1 of all. (U R) & u need a cake of soap to wash that mouth out, dye that grey hair & while ur at it. Inject that wrinkly old face of ur’s with that excess fat from ur fat ares or those flabby arms u can take flight with. Cos u sound like an immature old has been that’s only really embarrassing herself. Stop looking down on other peoples appearances.

Somebody needs to take that funky dude off the program, wash his face, brush his hair, and teach him how to say “astronaut” and “extraterrestrial”. He’s an embarrassment, and a distraction.

There’s another speculation that the Zuni are the descendents of Japanese crossing the Pacific centuries before Columbus.

@N9NEseventeen Could he be an alien descended human? We may never know.
May 22nd, 2011 at 10:37 am
@theNASAlies Oh, I agree! I was only being facetious, lol.
May 22nd, 2011 at 10:58 am
@N9NEseventeen you could give him a wicked forehead slap though!!? “THWACK”
May 22nd, 2011 at 11:32 am
@Chipymonk ..I think humanity needs to be able to control itself.
May 22nd, 2011 at 12:05 pm
@chesleycareystar HE’S ACTUALLY ONE OF THEM…obviously
May 22nd, 2011 at 12:21 pm
i am an alien. but u cant tell we look like regular people, we come in peace.
May 22nd, 2011 at 12:52 pm
@theNASAlies Why? The reason is this same now as it always has been: the people who have the answers are keeping it on a NEED TO KNOW basis. Throughout history, they have set up bogus religions and philosophical beliefs to prevent us from learning these truths. They are the elite and humanity must be controlled.

this is a very awesome, interesting show. HISTORY CHANNEL FTW!!!
May 22nd, 2011 at 1:29 pm

May 22nd, 2011 at 3:17 pm
PLEASE! LET’S SURRENDER JUSTIN BIEBER TO THE ALIENS!!!!

You know how in science class, when the whole class plants something, and you decorate your little stick to identify where you planted yours, and you check on it for a few weeks to measure its progress? That could be how all the different monuments and petroglyphs came to be– the aliens wanted to identify/remember where they planted their “beings”. Each alien had their own experiment, and that’s why there are so many races. I really think we’re an experiment!

@neaolin That could be a song “hope I’m not a sexual slave come 2012″ lol
May 22nd, 2011 at 5:09 pm
@grubelsucht that’s so mean but very funny
May 22nd, 2011 at 5:54 pm
I grew up buddhist, having never believed the bible… but this theory makes it all plausible.
May 22nd, 2011 at 6:23 pm
@EnervatedSociety What would you say this “genetic engineering art” was inspired by? Something to think about ;P.
May 22nd, 2011 at 6:38 pm
These are all lies of the demond possed masons ..the control society by manipulating us throug lies they do the works of their father the father of lies.. lucifer is done
May 22nd, 2011 at 7:00 pm
@EnervatedSociety they do, they jjust dont say it on camera, because the whole point of the show is the ancient alien theory.
May 22nd, 2011 at 7:43 pm
It may be true or not (i tend to think the first) but you must admit that the enthusiasm of Erich Von Daniken is CONTAGIOUS!

THEORY…aliens looking to take our resources or nwo ..take cattle samples ,mostly brain,spinal fluid etc…think about it ?man eats alot of beef ..taint or manipulate cows and cull the population ez…i mean cmon
etc..or undetectable dna modification to cows to reach the masses.theyr technology is beyond r comp…maybe a way to expose us to a pathogen or strain to control us…hmmmm

Why do we think god is heaven? Ah, you got my point now. Aliens made us evolution can never go from neanderthaler to human
Neandertahler + Alien = Human
this is my opinion sorry for my bad english (not whole world speak it)
And another thing is, that how come on 2 different world parts are exactly the same creatures (indians(west) + europeans(east)( and more to the east)
and they did never meet, now you could say earth was all together one time. BUT that was not when the humans were there

@enlightenment2u The theoty of this holes are unsplainned, If aliens done it or the people of the region. Something heavy roled over that. Could it be a machine?. There’s not constructions, nobody can’t understand a simply reason of the meaning of this marks, they can’t even understand what it is. Maybe people were looking for water of food, or just exploring to get minerals. I am agree with the Theoty of ET is very accepted, there’s no many clues.
May 22nd, 2011 at 10:07 pm
half shark alligator half man!
May 22nd, 2011 at 10:54 pm
ROFL.. yea the holes inthe ground look alien made ROFL!!!
crackpots… aliens who can bend spacetime can only communicate through holes in ground ROFL. Aliens cut cows like animals? ROFL are you joking? genetic materials from hair will do monkey brains.
Aliens who can bend space time can artificially create genes and any organism even we can produce it RETARDS!!!

@ThePenIsLiquor Paint it, only time will tell…..
Thanks for stopping by
May 22nd, 2011 at 11:29 pm
why is it that every piece of art is considered actual proof that something existed? i mean, can’t i paint a picture of a half shark half buffalo without it being “direct evidence” that aliens messed with genes in ways that are physically impossible?
May 22nd, 2011 at 11:34 pm
@EnervatedSociety it hasn’t been considered because there is no need too. yes, it is dominant in their works of art, but it is also “very” heavily spoken of in their most precious writings and religious texts. they actually believed there was a creature with the head of a dog and a cat and etc….
May 23rd, 2011 at 12:04 am
Ill just get my m16 and kill them all
May 23rd, 2011 at 12:49 am

May 23rd, 2011 at 1:08 am

May 23rd, 2011 at 1:36 am
Martha, GET ME THE DAMN’D SHOTGUN!
May 23rd, 2011 at 1:49 am

May 23rd, 2011 at 2:16 am
@GhostAholics nice cover up
May 23rd, 2011 at 2:16 am
*insert scary music*
May 23rd, 2011 at 3:14 am
School should teach this. Scientist and officials archeologists are ignorants that can’t admit they are, so they said bull shit. But the evidence have to be put under the light. NOwaday science is obscurantism.
May 23rd, 2011 at 3:21 am
the egyptian hybrids remind me of hogback’s creations on thriller bark
May 23rd, 2011 at 3:32 am
TO ALIENS: PLEASE MUTILATE JUSTIN BIEBER’S VOICE thank you
May 23rd, 2011 at 3:40 am

May 23rd, 2011 at 3:53 am
The holes are some giant chinese checker board.
