Synopsis

Is there a single story that explains all the mysteries of the ancient world? The conventionally accepted story of mankind fails to explain numerous undeniable facts. Now genetics and evidence from the Earth's past climate and new archeology could be pointing to truths behind many mysteries. Maybe even the stories of the Flood, Atlantis and Aliens on Earth? - The centre of Northern hemisphere ice-cover in the last ice-age was in the Hudson Bay area, not at the current North Pole. Why? - Were the pre-clovis inhabitants of North America wiped out by a massive comet impact? - Is the reason for the very sudden end of the 1200 year 'younger dryas' cold period recorded in human myths and religious ideas? - The huge constructions now under the sea must have preceded the Sumerian civilisation. Who made them? - Was the filling-in of the enclosures at Göbekli Tepe more important than what the enclosures were used for? - Farmers migrating from the fertile crescent into Europe carried a new DNA ‘marker’ not present in previous populations in or around the Middle East. Where did it come from? - How was the huge megalithic and finely cut stonework made at Baalbeck, Giza, Cusco and Puma Punku, when the available stone and bronze tools are softer than the cut stone? From just three conjectures, Gods, Genes and Climate logically and scientifically explores an alternative history of the last 100,000 years - one that could explain all the mysteries.

About this title

About the Author

By day, Roger Broadie has been a stage-hand, carpenters' assistant, film sound recordist, physics teacher, teacher trainer in the days when computers were just being introduced to schools, Education Marketing Manager for Acorn Computers, Chief Executive of the European Education Partnership, prime instigator of the Naace Third Millennium Learning Award and an independent consultant, helping schools to develop connected-world learning. By night he has read eclectically about a huge range of topics that are on the edge of accepted knowledge in science, ancient history and archeology, always trying to tie these back into a true scientific basis. Balancing an open mind with a 'skepticism threshold' to avoid the untrue and speculations that have no basis, his 50 years of exploration of the edges of knowledge is now being extended by new genetics studies, scientific analysis and archeological techniques.
