5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent-Professional Scientific Research, February 17, 2000

This review is from: Quest for the Lost Civilization - Forgotten Knowledge [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The three tape series goes beyond eye opening.The author does an excellent job at presenting a new theory on ancient civilizations that you have to see to believe. Once he is through you will never be able to cuddle up comfortably in your old beliefs. He is thorough and the evidence is convincing and astounding.Go ahead and free your mind. It's worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very compelling evidence of a lost civilization, January 24, 2003

This review is from: Quest for The Lost Civilization - Ancient Mariners [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I saw "Quest for The Lost Civilization - Ancient Mariners" on the Science channel (may have been called Discovery Science at the time). This program has some very suprsing evidence which links Angkor, Giza, and Easter island to each other. It also suggests that the Aztecs and Mayans may have been in this same group. The stars and geometery linked these places together. They had similiar culture and traditions.

All this may sound far fetched, but it isnt. This program is very interesting and I higly reccomend it to anyone with interest in ancient civilizations, archeology, and historical fiction. I have yet to see the other "Quest for the Lost Civilization" movies, but I believe fans of those will also love this one.

Were the Ancients really linked together? do they know something we do not? It's all very thought provoking and yet we may never solve it. Just remeber how many times we have overlooked things in are history or made up other things in order to solve the unexplained.

This review is from: Quest for The Lost Civilization - Ancient Mariners [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I bought this video several years ago and it was a breath of fresh air to see that somebody had found the evidence that so many people have been looking for. However when ever this kind of evidence is discovered, normaly it is hidden or kept under wraps because this kind of evidence will hit the nerve of those who like to ridicule the Genesis flood story that has close to 300 global flood legends from virtualy every culture in the world that are remarkably similar. Legend has it that after the waters receded for about 300 years or so, the oceans were low enough that people could walk all over the Earth. Then it is theorized that the first global warming event took place and when the polar ice caps melted back, the ocean levels rose several hundred feet cutting people off and isolating various people from the rest of the land masses that were covered up that are now the ocean floor.

Some people will ask the question, "why does it look like the people who lived on Easter Island just dropped their tools and left?" Maybe just maybe the water levels were rising because of "global warming" and they jumped into their boats or some other kind of water craft and ended up some where else. When the water levels came back down later on,Easter Island was isolated from the rest of the world and was only accessible by very durable sea going vessels. Unless there were stories that were passed down by the survivors of that fatefull day, everything about the Easter Island residents would of and most likely has been lost for ever unless the oral stories if there were any were written down and preserved for posterity.

MR. Hancock like MR.Childress MR. Buval MR. West and DR. Hovind, spend their lives trying to rediscover what happened way back then and to find out our ancient past and how it may or may not affect us today.

Thank God that there are people out there like these men who devote their time money and effort into doing this type of research and not just sitting around watching football or standing on a street corner with their pants down around their knees, hat on sideways with a 40 ouncer in one had and their member in their other hand with fabricated excuses for them being the way that they have chosen to be.

Some people out there are the reason that history has been preserved as well as rediscovered. Men like Graham Hancock.

Thanks MR. Hancock for all you do for the rest of us that are living today, and future generations that have yet to be born.
