Description

Erich von Daniken, whose books have enthralled millions of readers around the world, now presents astonishing new confirmation for his revolutionary theories. Erich von Daniken's The Gold of the Gods unveils new evidence of an intergalactic "battle of the gods" whose losers retreated to, and settled, Earth. He explores a vast, mysterious underworld of Ecuador-caves filled with gold and writings in solid gold that go back to the time of the Great Flood, bolstering von Daniken's theory of a prehistoric earthly "era of the gods."

This one continues on Daeniken’s famous “Return to the Stars” book. Similarities between very distant cultures (geographically speaking) are explored and more elements (used to backup Daeniken’s claims that our ancestors have come from the stars) are brought forth. Again he does not claim

that he is telling one and the absolute truth – he only brings forth elements unexplainable by the modern science and speculates using what sources are available to him as a lay man.

More questions are raised :)

Interesting book.

This should have been entitled "The Gold of the Gullible," for that is what Mr von Däniken obtained, including my hoarded pocket money back when I believed.
