Uncovering the Advanced History of the World

"Uriel's Machine offers a new perspective on ancient history by presenting compelling evidence of a prehistoric civilization that possessed advanced knowledge in science and astronomy. The book also discusses the impact of a global catastrophe on the planet and how the people of that time were able to build astronomical observatories that allowed them to predict future comet impacts. Overall, the book provides a fascinating account of an alternative history of the world that challenges traditional views."

Description

* What is the standard view of history is completely wrong? * What if science and writing developed from an advanced prehistoric civilisation in the British Isles? * What is written evidence in the Dead Sea Scrolls records megalithic history and provides the plans for a machine that could rebuild civilisation following a global catastrophe? * And what if Jesus and his brother James were practitioners of megalithic astronomy? In URIEL'S MACHINE Knight & Lomas offer powerful new evidence that our planet was hit by seven mountain-sized lumps of comet, creating a series of giant waves that ripped across the globe. Putting together the latest findings of leading geologists with their own sensational new archaeological discoveries, they show how a civilisation emerged and was able to build an international network of sophisticated astronomical observatories which provided accurate calendars, could measure the diameter of the planet and accurately predict comet impact years in advance. The revelation that this is the true purpose of the great megalithic sites in Western Europe, built long before the Egyptian pyramids.
