Summary: Solid facts, odd conclusions
Comment: I would give this book 5 stars for a good research done. But there are some very strange arguments.
Notably, the author actually relies on revelations by psychics. Well, this seems too much for me.
Very irritating is the author's manner of attaching words like "unquestionably" to what should be properly regarded as wild suppositions.
Many statements of facts raise doubts, especially when skilled artisan work and agriculture are assigned to 8000-9000 BCE.
The author attempts to make a point that ancient Egyptians had technology, unavailable even now. That's because we can't build pyramids like they did. So, what technology is that? Believe it or not, the author spends much effort to prove they possessed... saws. You got it right, the incredible technology was the brass saw, perhaps with sapphires on the edge. Of course, this is more than what is normally allowed for that time, but come on, you can't say someone built the pyramids with brass saws and then claim they had higher technology than we do.
Another proof is equally strange, although in its own way. It is commonly thought that Egyptians employed drills under pressure of 1 to 2 tons. This equipment is no rocket science, you see. But the author prefers to conjecture they used ultrasonic drills. Excuse me, but ultrasonic drill should work like a hammer, it won't leave spiral traces, like those found.
Other traces of this antedeluvian culture are equally unimpressive. There are no factories or spacecraft, just a few stones and artefacts, worked up better than we expect of this era. But doesn't it make sense to question their dating, then?
Authors' hypothesis on using sound to lift stones, right or wrong, is pure fantasy.
In order to find similarities between different cultures, the author discusses only those religious ceremonies and gods, which are alike. Not even exact, just somewhat alike. But if we look for dissimilarities, there is much more of them.
The author's point is unclear, but he seems to imply that these highly developed people of the previous civilization, who built pyramids, were in fact bird-worshipping shamans. And fish-worshipping, too. And star-worshipping. In effect, they were just shamans. Would you believe these people left us highly advanced knowledge, hidden below the pyramids?
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent overview of the mysteries of Egypt
Comment: I accidentally came upon Andrew Collins when researching material on Atlantis, and read his excellent GATEWAY TO ATLANTIS. I had to go to Amazon.uk to find his previous works. Good thing they are now readily availble in the USA.
GODS OF EDEN is one of those books that one needs to pick up periodically to mull over. It's nearly impossible to take in all of Collins' theories in one go. But he makes impressive arguments that the Egyptian culture is much older than traditional archeologists will admit. While kicking a bit of dust at the stodgy, old Egyptologists at the British Museum, Collins also deftly avoids the smoke and mirrors of "pyramidiots" old and new.
I admit he loses me a bit when he travels too far afield of Egypt, but I attribute the fault with myself and not with him. The book is copiously footnoted (they make good reading in themselves) and well researched.
