The Mystery of the Crystal Skulls: A Real Life Detective Story of the Ancient World [Paperback]

Chris Morton (Author), Ceri Louise Thomas (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 1998

An old Native American legend tells of thirteen life-size crystal skulls, which are said to hold crucial information about humankind's true purpose and future destiny. The skulls would be discovered and their secrets revealed when the human race was sufficiently developed. The authors hear of this legend while in the jungles of Belize and set out on a quest to discover its truth.

"The Mystery of the Crystal Skulls" follows their journey from Maya temples to the British Museum, the Smithsonian, and to the crystal laboratories of Hewlett-Packard, where tests lead one scientist to conclude, "This {crystal} skull should not even exist." In the end, shamans and native elders reveal the sacred knowledge the skulls contain and answer the questions this enduring mystery raises:

Are the skulls artifacts from the lost civilization of Atlantis, or are they extraterrestrial in origin?

Made from piezo-electric quartz crystal, used in today's computers, are the skulls information storage devices?

Do they really posses telepathic qualities, allowing us to see deep into the past and predict the future?

What is the message they bring about future earth changes and the destiny of humanity?.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read!, May 29, 2000

This review is from: The Mystery of the Crystal Skulls: A Real Life Detective Story of the Ancient World (Paperback)

Amazing. This book absorbede!

The knowledge(?) provided through this book is of great potential importantce to everyone - worldwide.

The style is easy and engrossing, and the author's take on a multi-angled view in their research. Looking at the science, archeology, and mythological evidence (as well as the many eye witnesses to the skulls mysterious powers) the book points towards invaluable insights, from the origins and forgotten histories of humankind, to the possiblilies and purposes of our future destiny.

After reading this book, my whole perception of the world shifted sideways - twenty foot that way! (he says pointing in both directions).

A real must read for anyone interested in the ancient mysterious, ancient wisdom and/or spiritual knowledge.

Take a look and decide for yourself.

NB. If you like/liked this book, take a look at 'The Scole Experiment' - I think you'll like that too.

Are you interested in finding more on one of those mysterious findings emerging from the past? But this time you'd like to be taken for an intelligent person, not a gullible E.T. or high-tech Atlantis freak.

When I first opened the book I armed myself with a thick mental shield, as I was expecting to read about highly technological ancient civilizations or worse, extra-terrestrial descents onto the earth.

It's nothing like that.

The book lives up to its title, as it is a rational research presented in a detective fashion. So you'll be retracing the authors' path as they discover bits and pieces and fly back and forth between US and Europe and visit places and people. And you'll read about native South, Central and North American prophecies. And I think you'll get goose bumps as I did. Have a good reading.

This review is from: The Mystery of the Crystal Skulls: A Real Life Detective Story of the Ancient World (Paperback)

This is one of the best books on the subject I have seen yet. Being a self-styled expert on the Crystal Skulls, and author of my own fiction work on the skull called "The Crystal Skull Files," I find this book an invaluable resource not only for people wishing to know more about these mysterious objects, but about the future of mankind.I found the most fascinating aspect of this book the positive outlook it has of mankind: That people are basically loving beings.I hope that is true!Myke FeinmanPublisherInk and Feather ComicsStreator, IL
