In 1982, The American scholar Charles Hapgood made an astonishing claim to a young librarian Rand Flem-Ath - that civilization was almost a hundred thousand years old, and that he had the evidence to prove it. But before he could substantiate these remarkable assertions, Hapgood was tragically killed in a car crash.Together with fellow author Colin Wilson, Flem-Ath set out to track down the truth behind the scholar's statements. Their study of the world's most sacred sites - Stonehenge, the Great Pyramids, Machu Picchu and many others - led them to an amazing discovery. Far from being built for local reasons, these monuments formed a powerful and undeniable geometrical pattern. This in turn implied the existence of an ancient advanced civilization, one whose knowledge of the world was far wider than had previously been thought possible.
