During the 1970's, this classic book astounded the world with its claims that Earth had been visited by space visitors. Now it is time to re-visit this classic book from a new vantage point of alien abductions.

Chariots of the Gods author Erich Von Daniken asks if space men visited earth thousands of years ago. The author explores many kinds of discoveries.

He asks provocative questions, such as, did space visitors travel to Earth thousands of years ago? He points out evidence of electric batteries that existed thousands of years ago. He reports numbers with 15 digits, something not registered by any computer, and yet the ancient civilizations knew about them. He also explores religions as they relate to stories of gods visiting earth, Gods who promised a better life only to use ultra-sophisticated weapons to destroy the people on earth.

Author Daniken notes that it took 400,000 years for mankind to reach his present state of knowledge. Yet we only have 7000 years of human history. How did this happen? Where did our knowledge come from? All over the world there are ruins and improbable objects which cannot be explained by reference to conventional theories of archeology, history, or religion.

Why are the world's sacred books full of descriptions of gods who came down from the sky in fiery chariots and who always promised to return? What possible explanations can be found for a huge block of rock the size of a four-story house, weighing 20,000 tons, complete with steps, ramps, and decorations?
