Synopsis:

Were Atlantis and Lemuria factual places? Who built the pyramids and for what purpose? How advanced was the technology of ancient cultures? All this and more is covered in EXPOSED, UNCOVERED, & DECLASSIFIED: LOST CIVILIZATIONS & SECRETS OF THE PAST the latest in the all-original series that is already sparking lively debate. Erich von Däniken, best-selling author of Chariots of the Gods, examines the Egyptian pyramids, studying their astronomical implications and what message they were meant to convey. Thomas G. Brophy focuses on the mysterious Nabta Playa site in southern Egypt and its connection to African history. Intrepid explorer of ancient America Frank Joseph covers archaeological scandals and attempts to suppress evidence, including the Smithsonian's loss of Maya skulls discovered in the Aleutian Islands. Researcher, Steven Sora, author of The Lost Colony, delves into evidence that Scotland's Picts originated in North America and were connected to the ancient Micmac tribe of the Americas. Philip Coppens of the History Channel's Ancient Aliens explores an ancient Celtic network of roads that may be connected to a 4,000-year-old land-based reproduction of Atlantis. Scholar and mystery explorer Oberon Zell-Ravenheart brings together the Garden of Eden, the Tree of Life, the great deluge and the sinking of Lemuria. Marie D. Jones & Larry Flaxman (11:11: The Time Prompt Phenomenon) explore what ancient civilisations knew about sound and resonance and how they may have used them to build megaliths and pyramids and achieve altered states. Journalist, Nick Redfern, reveals the U.S. government's abiding interest in our ancient past, religious mysteries and enigmatic artifacts.
