“Gold is a treasure, and he who possesses it does all he wishes to in this world, and succeeds in helping souls into paradise.”
– Christopher Columbus
Could gold be the ultimate link between humans and aliens? A church in Southern France is said to hold the key to alchemy – and a gateway to another part of the Universe. Locals in Cusco, Peru believe UFO sightings are connected to lost gold at the bottom of Lake Puray. And some believe underneath the Great Sphinx of Giza lies an entire library left behind by extraterrestrials – a library stored on gold. [5]

INTRODUCTION [5a]
Ancient cities…lost for centuries…
|
“Dozens of people have risked their lives trying to find where Paititi is.” – Philip Coppens |
Treasures…hidden deep underwater…
|
“The local people have told me not simply that the ships fly over the lake, but they actually enter the lake.” – Brien Foerster |
And secret chambers…buried under the great Egyptian Sphinx.
|
“Gold was the flesh of the gods. Egypt had probably the best supply of gold anywhere in the ancient world.” – Aidan Dodson, Ph.D. (Egyptologist, Univ. of Bristol) |
Since the dawn of time, humans have been obsessed with legends of hidden gold. But what if our desire for this precious metal is about something more than riches?
| “It almost seems as if we’re genetically programmed to love gold.”
– Jason Martell |
| “Ultimately, gold represents our connection with the stars.”
– William Henry (Author / Investigative Mythologist), |
| “A number of researches have suggested that Ancient Aliens have come to Earth primarily to mine gold.”
– David Childress (Author, Technology of the Gods) |
Millions of people around the world believe that we have been visited in the past by extraterrestrials beings. What if it were true? Did Ancient Aliens really help to shape our history? And, if so, might they have come here in search of gold?
