Review: A Well Written and Compelling Work - Graham Hancock's 1995 work, The Fingerprints of the Gods, is an important addition to the library of any critically-thinking individual searching for truth about the origins of mankind and the early developmental stages of human civilizations. Hancock's experience as a writer and journalist really shines. I found his book to be expertly written, compelling and not bogged down by unnecessary details. The chapters are tightly scripted and the story moves along at a pleasing pace. I heard from others that Hancock made "outrageous claims" in this book. I must disagree. I found Hancock to be respectful of the orthodox views of the scholars working in the fields of study covered in the book. Hancock takes a scholarly approach to his subject matter himself. There are numerous references to reliable and credible sources along with a well organized and extensive bibliography. He is careful to respectfully reveal and discuss questions that the orthodox archaeologists and scientists in other fields have not been able to successfully answer. I discovered that Hancock was careful to introduce possibilities as compared to making claims. I appreciated this approach very much. I found the material to be very compelling and thought provoking. Hancock makes a strong case for the theory that there was an "unidentified third-party" civilization that technologically and culturally informed Sumerian, Egyptian and Olmec civilizations. He describes our current civilization as one with "amnesia" in that we do not remember our true origins. He explains that there are flood myths found in the stories of over 500 different civilizations around the globe and there are striking similarities to many of them. He asks us to consider if these myths are part of an oral tradition handed down by our ancestors before the time of written accounts describing actual, catastrophic events occurring on a global scale. If we had been unable to find any physical, archaeological evidence of the Roman civilization locally in Rome, we could still infer the existence of a Roman civilization by studying the effects it had and the influence it exerted on the many civilizations in the surrounding areas. Hancock makes a similar case by exploring technological similarities between ancient cultures that are believed by many to have had no contact with each other. If there was no contact, then there are a lot of questions requiring valid explanations. Hancock guides us to these questions. I applaud Hancock's efforts to move beyond the orthodox views held by the archaeological society at-large and his non-inflammatory manner of introducing and exploring new ideas. I remind skeptics of Galileo and the fact that his life was threatened when he revealed what turned out to be the true nature of the movement of the planets around the sun. It is easy for some to leave the heavy lifting to others and then throw rocks at the results. I believe that Hancock makes a truly beneficial contribution to the current thinking surrounding the origin of early human civilizations. Fingerprints of the Gods is a must-read for those helping the human race to wake up and find its story. Enjoy!
Review: Excellent Read - A re-purchase of speculative history based in good science. Although typically thought-of as outside the mainstream academic circles, Mr Hancock cannot be shorted on his research and clear understanding of basic scientific principles. Additionally, he is one of the more authentic writers who is willing to think outside the box and approach fact from different perspectives putting already available information in new contexts. I recommend this book highly. It is thought-provoking.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes you go Hmmmm
*by B***R on April 24, 2018*

I stumbled across this book by accident. Something I was reading at the time mentioned it. The writer asks some really good questions, questions that probably can't be answered now, maybe never. I am surprised more research has not been done is some areas he discusses. Some of his speculation seems reasonable. I think as archeologists look in new areas, more surprises are in store. We seem to read about new findings regularly, some which change current thinking. Keep an open mind when you read it.
