Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Ancient South America is a genuine enigma. The continent is covered with ancient ruins, pyramids, and other archaeological sites, a host of which date to 50,000 years ago. Archaeological evidence shows that people lived in South America as early as 300,000 B.C., but the biases of North American archaeologists have hampered investigations and publicity of finds.

In this, their third book in a popular series investigating Edgar Cayce's psychic visions of the ancient world, the authors show how archaeological evidence and recent genetic research from South America almost perfectly match Edgar Cayce's story of South America. In fact, genetic and other evidence strongly point to Atlantis and Mu (Lemuria) as the origin of many of the peoples of ancient South America. Both Atlantean and Lemurian DNA may well have been identified.

In addition, the book shows how North American archaeologists, cloaked in the guise of "superior science," have actually maintained a set of pseudoscientific pronouncements and ideas for over 70 years — all of which have been exposed as totally false since 1997.

Despite the long dominance of North American archaeologists over media announcements and textbooks, many South American archaeologists have long asserted that a host of sites in the continent were occupied long before North America. Subjected to cruel and unrelenting ridicule by their North American counterparts, these scientists continued to conduct research showing how their findings were correct.

Extensively illustrated with full-page archaeological reconstructions of Caral (a large pyramid complex constructed in 2700 B.C.), the Sipan pyramid complex, and others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Impeccable Credentials Yield A Winning Book, January 27, 2003

By	Henry Harlow "Marketing Coach" (Winter Park, FL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you enjoyed the Mound Builders by these authors you will find this book of value as well. Ditto if you are interested in psychic phenomena or archeology. I trust the book gets wide circulation in archeology circles. I would love to see what the "rebuttal" would be for this book from the archeology community. In typical fashion the authors are very careful with the facts and acknowledge any weakness in the evidence as well as saying the final evidence is not in as yet. I learned new things in this book like the presence of several thousand balls made of granite - hand polished - that have been found in a wide region of Costa Rica some as large as seven feet in diameter weighing more than 16 tons. These man made spheres are completely unique in the world. There are other gems like this in the book. John Van Auken has written at least seven other books concerning Edgar Cayce, which certainly qualifies him as an expert on the Cayce readings thus I have no concerns about the accuracy with regard to the Cayce readings discussed in the book. I enjoyed this read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ancient South America, December 1, 2002

By	Brent Raynes (Waynesboro, Tennessee) - See all my reviews

Ancient South America, the authors of this book assert, may have some of the most mysterious and ancient ruins and sites to be found anywhere else in the world. Thousands of miles of ancient roadways and countless cities and temples. In addition, the authors claim that new archaeological evidence and genetic studies from South America provide historical evidence that matches "almost perfectly" with what the psychic readings of Kentucky's "Sleeping Prophet" Edgar Cayce revealed about the ancient people there, who, according to Cayce's readings originated from Atlantis and Mu!
The book is a concise and comprehensive compilation of the latest scientific evidence that supports Cayce's readings on South America, containing also many incredible photographs and illustrations of ancient sites and ruins as well. It's compilers work within the infrastructure of the ARE (Association for Research and Enlightment) organization itself, known also as the Cayce Foundation. Their qualifications are impeccable. The book is very reasonably priced and full of the latest and most up-to-date information available anywhere. You just can't possibly go wrong!

1.0 out of 5 stars Flawed Atlantis Destruction History Trumps Book's Thesis, October 27, 2002

By	William Hutton (Virginia Beach, VA) - See all my reviews

This book seeks to correlate times of human migrations -- from Atlantis and Mu to South America - with dates derived from mutation rates of individuals' mitochondrial DNA and with Cayce-readings dates for three destructions of Atlantis and Mu. Roughly two-thirds of the text succeeds in this endeavor. The remaining third fails miserably.

Authors' ignorance of what the readings actually say, coupled with the delight that goes with making up and then referring to imaginary "Cayce readings," is probably the best explanation of what has spoiled this book.

In what might be an otherwise useful study, one finds evidence of deceptive interpretations of several Cayce readings and embarrassing references to imaginary ones. These abominations are used to prop up a flawed "destruction chronology" for the legendary continents of Mu and Atlantis. The outline for this chronology was first advanced in E. E. Cayce's book, "The Mysteries of Atlantis Revisited." Dates for the first and second destructions given in "Ancient South America" are at significant variance with the specific destruction dates given in the Cayce readings. The authors' dates thus void the central thesis of their book re. migrations from Atlantis and Mu to South America.
