Erich Von Daniken brings his unique insight to bear on the history and legends of Ancient Greece. Using painstaking archaeological research and the evidence provided by such writers as Plato and Aristotle, he suggests that 'myths' were, in fact, very much reality and that Greek 'gods' were extraterrestrial beings who arrived on Earth many thousands of years ago.Illustrated with 32 pages of original full-colour photographs taken by the author, this book turns on its head the traditional view of Classical Greece.
-a revolutionary interpretation of the sites and legends of Ancient Greece
