Synopsis

Cuando los conquistadores espanoles llegaron al Nuevo Mundo a la busqueda de El Dorado, se encontraron con edificaciones de piedra de dimensiones verdaderamente descomunales situadas en regiones inhospitas e inaccesibles. Levantar aquellos gigantescos monumentos debio de requerir unos conocimientos tecnicos y una maquinaria de los que en aquel entonces carecian aquellas culturas indigenas. En ""Los Reinos Perdidos"", Zecharia Sitchin se vale de pruebas arqueologicas, mitologicas y documentales para revelarnos los lazos existentes entre las antiguas culturas del Proximo Oriente y las civilizaciones prehistoricas americanas. El autor presenta, ademas, respuestas convincentes como claros indicios de la intervencion de los dioses procedentes de un planeta moribundo que convirtieron la Tierra en su hogar.

Sitchin again turns to ancient sources for proof supporting his theories that millennia ago alien visitors shaped our destiny.

About the Author:

Zecharia Sitchin (1920-2010), an eminent Orientalist and biblical scholar, was born in Russia and grew up in Palestine, where he acquired a profound knowledge of modern and ancient Hebrew, other Semitic and European languages, the Old Testament, and the history and archaeology of the Near East. A graduate of the University of London with a degree in economic history, he worked as a journalist and editor in Israel for many years prior to undertaking his life s work--The Earth Chronicles.

One of the few scholars able to read the clay tablets and interpret ancient Sumerian and Akkadian, Sitchin based The Earth Chronicles series on the texts and pictorial evidence recorded by the ancient civilizations of the Near East. His books have been widely translated, reprinted in paperback editions, converted to Braille for the blind, and featured on radio and television programs.
