«Heaven's Mirror: Quest for the Lost Civilization» is the essay by Graham Hancock and Santha Faiia, published by Penguin in paperback (352 pages, in English).
From the pyramids of Egypt to Easter Island, Angkor Wat and the ruins of South America, it examines the astronomical alignment of great monuments and argues that so-called ancient cultures were heirs to a lost civilization. A blend of archaeology, myth and spirituality that invites a rethink of civilization's origins.
Published in 1999, it continues the research of Fingerprints of the Gods and accompanies the Channel 4 television series; Santha Faiia takes the photographs.
Readers interested in alternative archaeology, ancient civilizations and theories about a lost civilization will find here a representative essay.
Graham Bruce Hancock is a British author known for promoting pseudoscientific explanations of ancient civilisations and hypothetical lost lands. Hancock argues that an advanced society with spiritual technology thrived during the last Ice Age until comet impacts triggered the Younger Dryas about 12,900 years ago. He maintains that survivors of the disaster shared their knowledge with hunter-gatherer communities in regions such as ancient Egypt, Sumer, and Mesoamerica, sparking the earliest known civilisations.
