This is an excellent book for those with a peaked interest in the interconnection of all people and our pasts. Or in laymen terms Crystal Skulls. This book takes a very broad examination of a very expansive subject. It does explore the most common beliefs/concepts about the skull, not just popular or scientific. They really combed the world to ask the right people. From Native American shaman to top level scientists working for Hewlett Packard when they conducted scientific tests on the Mitchell-Hedges Skull in 1970.

Excellent bibliography, an excellent beginning to a quality bookcase.

This is a gripping book full of information that reads like a novel. Covering subjects from ancient history to quantum physics there is more information in this one book than I have read in hundreds of others. Startling revelations and theories abound. Highly recommended read!

The concepts contained within this book have implications for all of humanity. Definitely worth a read! Not wanting to make this fascinating subject matter appear too new agey, the authors were very careful to include exhaustive historic details and to explore every possible angle. I admit that I skimmed a couple of the longer chapters, but I was absolutely absorbed by the book as a whole. The story of the crystal skulls is absorbing and enlightening---and certainly a must-read in this era of corporate gluttony and environmental disregard. Highly recommended!

It's a wonderful surprise when you pick up a book not knowing much about it and it turns out to be so great. That's what happened to me with this book.

Just by reading this one book you can get caught up on the entire new age movement. It touches on many of the main new age ideas.

It also offers a possible theory for the origin of our human race including the time when our dna was converted from a single strand to two strands which contain the memories of both the original earth people and the star people.

These crystal skulls, especially the original 13 that were given to humanity by beings from other planets, are exquisite and priceless works of art. But they are much more. When they have been brought back together they will become an amazing 'living library' of ancient and arcane knowledge.

These skulls can truly be called sacred objects. It is not often that a physical object can be said to possess supernatural properties.

The big question is what is going to happen on 12/21/12 when this current age ends.

Will we enter a new age of peace and wonderous knowledge ?

Or will our human race simply die out as a result of pollution, greed, and violence ? This book has been published at this time to hopefully prevent this from happening.

Only time will tell and we don't have too long to wait.

This book has a lot of fascinating stories in it about the crystal skulls and what there significance might be. The authors take the approach of explaining them scientifically and then move on to explaining them by American Indian spirituals beliefs that include the tribes in North, South, and Central America. They found the scientific viewpoint lacking in its ability to explain them. The crystal skulls are closely linked to Indian culture, although it is said that other crystal skulls exist in such places as Tibet.

In this book mysticism trumps science and you might say that Indian mysticism trumps the white man's science because the book is also a critique of the white man's ways--his science, his civilization, his economy. The Indian mystics are particularly chagrined that the environment is damaging mother earth by extracting her resources out of her. There may come a day when we realize that we cannot eat money once all the resources have been tapped. Civilization should not be divided among class, religious, and racial lines; we are all one and share a common heritage which originates from the stars such as Sirius, Pleiades, and Orion. Everyone is equal, so there should be no class structure. The physicists are now just finding out what the Indians already knew, that we are all interconnected. The Crystal Skulls are appearing to give us messages such as these.

Now that the time of white oppression against Indians and their culture is coming to an end, a golden age may dawn in which all people will live in harmony without fear, doubt, violence, and suspicion. Or maybe not, if we keep trying to separate ourselves from nature and from each other, it will destroy us and our planet. We are considered a low level civilization compared to other beings on other planets, which means we are not very spiritual evolved and our technology is going beyond our moral capacity to use it wisely. We may be destroyed just like the Aztecs who were using the crystal skulls to oppress people and so God's scourge, the Spaniards, took them over. The end of the age is scheduled for December 21st, 2012, in which either the world ends or a new age begins. The Aztecs once believed that they had to sacrifice humans to keep the world from ending, but the authors think that their literal translation of giving hearts to God did not mean that they were to cut one out of a sacrificial victim. They explain well why and how the Aztecs sacrificed victims. It was a great honor to captured prisoner to become a victim and victims were treated well before the sacrifice.

The skulls themselves are a mystery because they do not seem to have any tool marks on them. Their age has not been determined yet. The skulls may have healing properties, but may also have the ability to curse. Some channelers claim that the skull talks to them. One skull was given away by the Mayans to a British woman who discovered the skull and she presents the skull to others who are fascinated by it. The authors go around to different places and people investigating different skulls and pick up interesting stories and evidence along the way. I do not necessarily agree with or even like all ideas presented in the book.

This book often reads like a great adventure novel; however, at some points inthe story it can essentially be considered as such. This is a wonderful view into the world of the crystal skulls, and it is well worth the investment to anyone who chooses to work with these sacred tools. This is also a valuable book to any advanced stoudent of any application of crystals.

Wow!!!! Great Book! I went to Mexico last year and visited Chichenitza and heard the stories of the crystal skulls and was entriged. This book (based on facts)takes you on an adventure of how some of the skulls were found and the effects they have on people. The history and native beliefs and also how scientifically; they are an enigma. I couldn't put this book down and I'm usually one of those people who starts to read and falls asleep in the middle of a chapter.... Not this book!!! It's great!! I highly recommend!!
*Have we entered a time of quickening and separation??
*Is 2012 the end or a beginning?

This is the best book I've read in a long time. I expected it to focus solely on the crystal skulls, and it did to an extent, but it also has a wealth of historical information. Very interesting, and I was disappointed when I came to the end, because I wanted to keep reading more.

What I liked most was just how readable this book was. I've read very few non fiction books that made me turn the pages as often. I came across this book after having a look to see what Amazon had on the Indiana Jones movies. I was keen to find out just how much fact there was to crystal skulls, having never heard of them before. Needless to say this is a very comprehensive book on the subject.

As you get further and further into the book you also have to keep a very open mind as far as some of the theories and subject matter goes. While I'm not completely convinced about some of the more outlandish theories, I found the book very interesting none the less. In any case there's only a few years to one of the pivotal points of the book, the end of the Mayan calendar in 2012, so if there is depth to some of the theories then we'll know soon enough!

Just the other night I saw footage of one of the six astronauts to walk on the moon saying that he believes that not only are Aliens real, and have visited the earth, but that the US government has been deliberately keeping this information from the public. Now while that sounds outrageous, you have to ask why would a well respected public figure, someone that's featured in history books etc, put his reputation on the line for something that he didn't 100% believe in. I'm sure NASA aren't too pleased with him - for sure risking public humiliation isn't something that most people would have the guts to do. So maybe George Lucas's plot for the last Indiana Jones film wasn't so outrageous after all?? If the legend is correct then the 13 crystal skulls will appear in the next couple of years... so who knows. At the end of the day, what's sillier - believing in aliens or believing in religion? How can you prove that any god exists anyway? (Mind you who needs to have a reason to treat everyone and everything with the respect they deserve?)

So in conclusion, if you've got an open mind then I think you might find this a very interesting book.

By the way it's not a book that's suitable for young children. Some of the background information on the Aztecs etc is pretty graphic - they were a bloodthirsty lot.

An interesting book but it leaves many doubts and questions. Maybe, it should knowing the subject. I believe that more should have been said or examined about the true and most sophisticated skull of the lot. How was it created and when and by whom. Was it really not possible for humans to have created this skull? It was fun reading.
