Boy oh boy... this is just soooo interesting I just had to post
this as part 3. the following is an article by Neil Freer on Jan 19, 2006
regarding the Sumerian Culture and the Anunnaki.

The Sumerian Culture and the Annunaki - by Neil Freer
Working from the same archaeological discoveries, artifacts, and
recovered records as archaeologists and linguists have for two hundred years,
propounds – proves, in the opinion of this author -- that the Anunnaki
(Sumerian: “those who came down from the heavens”; Old testament Hebrew,
Anakeim, Nefilim, Elohim; Egyptian: Neter), an advanced civilization from the
tenth planet in our solar system, splashed down in the Persian gulf area around
432,000 years ago, colonized the planet, with the purpose of obtaining large
quantities of gold. Some 250,000 years ago, the recovered documents tell us,
their lower echelon miners rebelled against the conditions in the mines and the
Anunnaki directorate decided to create a creature to take their place. Enki,
their chief scientist and Ninhursag their chief medical officer, after getting
no satisfactory results splicing animal and Homo Erectus genes, merged their
Anunnaki genes with that of Homo Erectus and produced us, Homo Sapiens, a
genetically bicameral species, for their purposes as slaves. Because we were a
hybrid, we could not procreate. The demand for us as workers became greater and
we were genetically manipulated to reproduce.
Eventually, we became so numerous that some of us were expelled
from the Anunnaki city centers, gradually spreading over the planet. Having
become a stable genetic stock and developing more precociously than, perhaps,
the Anunnaki had anticipated, the Anunnaki began to be attracted to humans as
sexual partners and children were born of these unions. This was unacceptable
to the majority of the Anunnaki high council and it was decided to wipe out the
human population through a flood that was predictable when Nibiru, the tenth in
our solar system and the Anunnaki home planet, came through the inner solar
system again (around 12,500 years ago) on one of its periodic 3600 year
returns. Some humans were saved by the action of the Anunnaki official, Enki,
who was sympathetic to the humans he had originally genetically created. For
thousands of years, we were their slaves, their workers, their servants, and
their soldiers in their political battles among themselves. The Anunnaki used
us in the construction of their palaces (we retroproject the religious notion
of temple on these now), their cities, their mining and refining complexes and
their astronomical installations on all the continents. They expanded from
Mesopotamia to Egypt to India to South and Central America and the stamp of
their presence can be found in the farthest reaches of the planet.
Around 6000 years ago, they, probably realizing that they were
going to phase off the planet, began, gradually, to bring humans to
independence. Sumer, a human civilization, amazing in its “sudden”, mature, and
highly advanced character was set up under their tutelage in Mesopotamia. Human
kings were inaugurated as go-betweens, foremen of the human populations
answering to the Anunnaki. A strain of humans, genetically enhanced with more
Anunnaki genes, a bloodline of rulers in a tradition of “servants of the
people” was initiated (Gardner). These designated humans were taught
technology, mathematics, astronomy, advanced crafts and the ways of advanced
civilized society (in schools, called now “mystery schools” but there was no
mystery about them). Gardner has brought to light the fact that there exists a
robust, highly documented, genealogical, genetic history carrying all the way
back to the Anunnaki, possessed by the heterodox tradition of Christianity,
which is only now coming forward, no longer gun-shy of the Inquisition. This
tradition, preserving the bloodline, is the one branded “heretical” and
murderously persecuted by the Roman Church. There were no Dark Ages for this
tradition, only for those whom the Church wanted to keep in the dark about the
real nature of human history and destroy the bloodline, a direct threat to the
power of the Bishops.
What evidence supports the Sitchin thesis?
The Astronomical Evidence
“...no concrete problem is going to be solved as long as the
experts of astronomy are too supercilious to touch "mythical" ideas
-- which are firmly believed to be plain nonsense, of course -- as long as
historians of religion swear to it that stars and planets were smuggled into
originally "healthy" fertility cults and naive fairy tales only
"very late" -- whence these unhealthy subjects should be neglected by
principle -- and as long as the philologists imagine that familiarity with
grammar replaces that scientific knowledge which they lack, and dislike.” -
Giorgio de Santillana, Ph.D.& Hertha von Dechend, Ph.D., "Hamlet's
Mill"
A key underpinning of the Sitchin paradigm is the existence, now
or in the past, of the tenth planet in our solar system, the home planet of the
Anunnaki with the size, orbit, and characteristics described, as Sitchin has
demonstrated, in the Enuma Elish and corroborated by Harrington, former chief
of the U.S. Naval Observatory, now deceased.
Tombaugh discovered Pluto in 1930. Christie, of the U.S. Naval
Observatory, discovered Charon, Pluto’s moon, in 1978. The characteristics of
Pluto derivable from the nature of Charon demonstrated that there must still be
a large planet undiscovered because Pluto could not be the cause of the
residuals, the “wobbles” in the orbital paths of Uranus and Neptune clearly
identifiable. The IRAS (Infrared Astronomical Satellite), during ’83 -’84,
produced observations of a tenth planet so robust that one of the astronomers
on the project said that “all that remains is to name it” -- from which point
the information has become curiously guarded. In 1992 Harrington and Van
Flandern of the Naval Observatory, working with all the information they had at
hand, published their findings and opinion that there is, indeed, a tenth
planet, even calling it an “intruder” planet. The search was narrowed to the
southern skies, below the ecliptic. Harrington invited Sitchin, having read his
book and translations of the Enuma Elish, to a meeting at his office and they
correlated the current findings with the ancient records.
The recovered Enuma Elish document, a history of the formation
of our solar system and more, says that, at the time when Mercury, Venus, Mars,
Jupiter, Uranus and Saturn were in place, there was a Uranus sized planet,
called Tiamat, in orbit between Mars and Jupiter. Earth was not in place yet. A
large wandering planet, called Nibiru, was captured into the system gravitationally.
As it passed by the outer planets it caused the anomalies of their moons, the
tilting of Uranus on its side, the dislodging of Pluto from its being a moon of
Saturn to its own planetary orbit. Its path bent by the gravitational pull of
the large planets, first its satellites collided with the large planet Tiamat
and, on a second orbit through, Nibiru collided with Tiamat, driving the larger
part of it into what is now Earth’s orbit to recongeal as Earth, dragging its
moon with it to become our Moon with all its anomalies. The shattered debris of
Tiamat’s smaller part became the asteroid belt, comets, and meteorites. The
gouge of our Pacific basin is awesome testimony to the collisional event.
Nibiru settled into a 3600 year elliptical retrograde (opposite direction to
all the other planets) orbit around our sun, coming in through the asteroid
belt region between Mars and Jupiter at perigee and swinging far out past Pluto
at apogee. Harrington acknowledged that his information agreed with all these
details and the maps they each had drawn of the orbits were almost
indistinguishable. The current probable location of Nibiru (Planet X, our
tenth) estimated by both was the same.
It is the opinion of this author and others that, in light of
the evidence already obtained through the use of the Pioneer 10 and 11 and two
Voyager space craft, the Infrared Imaging Satellite (IRAS, ‘83-84) and the
clear and unequivocal statements of Harrington when consulting with Sitchin,
that the search has already been accomplished, in fact that the planet has
already been found.
We need to force the issue of the tenth planet being in our
solar system, not just to demonstrate the validity of the new paradigm but for
a very practical reason. The ancient records are very clear. The passage of the
tenth planet, Nibiru, once every 3600 years, through the inner solar system
effects the Earth, sometimes in catastrophic ways. It is very probably the
cause of pole shifts, pole reversals, changes in the precessional movement,
perhaps even catastrophic bombardment by asteroid size space debris that it may
drag along with it. Since it passes through the asteroid belt area between Mars
and Jupiter and its orbital path may vary depending on the position of the
other planets when it comes though, it may have been responsible for the
devastation of Mars. A rigorous, detailed computer modeling of the solar
system, including the tenth planet needs to be done urgently for our own
planetary safety. Remember that the Vatican maintains an astronomical
observatory and Msgr. Balducci may have access to information that prompts him
to make the amazing statements he has ---- no doubt as voice of the Vatican.
The Technological Evidence
Ooparts is the term used to describe the purportedly out of
place in time artifacts, toys, tools, technical devices, depictions and
documents which have come to light through archaeological excavation or
discovery. Almost everyone is familiar, through published works or
documentaries, with the clay pot batteries still containing the electrodes from
the Iraqi desert dated at 2500 B.C., the flyable model airplane from a pyramid
tomb, the sophisticated machining of stone requiring the most advanced techniques
we know today, the 1000 ton precision cut blocks of stone in a temple
foundation that we could not even handle, an ancient relief frieze from an
Abydos temple depicting rockets, airplanes and even a helicopter, etc. The most
recent and quite amazing oopart is the rediscovery of monoatomic gold by David
Hudson (Monoatomics are superconductors at room temperature, have anti-gravitic
properties and are only now being investigated by the advanced physics
community) Hudson’s discovery, correlated with the bringing to light, by
Gardner, of the suppressed discovery of the Anunnaki gold processing plant on
Mt. Horeb by Sir Flinders Petrie in 1889 demonstrates that the monoatomics were
already known at least 3000 years ago. These ooparts coupled with evidence from
many disciplines and the historical records indicate that an advanced
civilization existed in those times possessing a high technology and that that
civilization was indeed the Anunnaki.
The Documentary Evidence
The recorded historical documentation for the existence and
deeds of the Anunnaki has become gradually available to us only since the early
1800’s. The excavation of the ancient sites of Mesopotamia brought to light the
amazingly advanced civilization of Sumer and, with it, thousands of clay
tablets containing not only mundane records of commerce, marriages, military
actions and advanced astronomical calculation systems but of the history of the
Anunnaki themselves. It is clear from those records that the Sumerians knew
these aliens to be real flesh and blood. The library of the ruler,
Ashurbanipal, at Nineveh was discovered to have burnt down and the clay tablets
held there were fired, preserving them for our reading. One of the most
impressive finds, in very recent time, has been a sealed, nine foot by six foot
room in Sippar holding, neatly arranged on shelves, a set of some 400 elaborate
clay tablets containing an unbroken record of the history of those ancient
times, a sort of time capsule. The evidence is so overwhelming and robust that,
if it weren’t for those with power enough to suppress, it would have been
accepted and our world view changed a century ago or, perhaps, sooner.
The Genetic Evidence
The recovered records place the location of the Anunnaki
laboratory where the first humans were literally produced in east central
Africa just above their gold mines. This falls precisely on the map where the
mitochondrial DNA “search for Eve” places the first woman Homo Sapiens and in
the same period. (The gold mining engineers of Africa have found
100,000-year-old gold mines in that area.) The evidence for, and description of
advanced genetic engineering is all there in the ancient documents. Our rapid
progress from inception to going to Mars soon, after only 250,000 years, does
not correspond to the million year periodicities of slow evolutionary
development of other species such as Homo Erectus before us. As so many
thinkers have pointed out, we are radically and anomalously different, as
discussed in part three.
Scientific Objections to the Thesis
How could the Anunnaki, clearly described as comfortable in
earth gravity and atmosphere, very similar to current humans in all ways, have
evolved on a planet within our solar system whose orbital apogee takes it into
the deep cold of space for much of its orbit?
The ancient records repeatedly describe Nibiru as a “radiant”
planet. This may be understood as having a high core temperature. Although
controversial, there is also astrophysical opinion that a large body in
elongated orbit is constantly tending toward circular orbit and this causes
stresses in the body that could generate a good deal of heat. That their planet
is gradually cooling, may be indicated by Sitchin’s interpretation of their
colonizing Earth (contains most of the gold identifiable in the solar system)
for the purpose of obtaining large quantities of gold for molecular seeding of
their atmosphere with a reflective gold shielding. Pertinent here is
Harrington’s confident statement to Sitchin that it is “a nice, good planet, could
be surrounded by gases, probably has an atmosphere and could support life like
ours”. The sunlight level there might be quite different than on earth. The
Anunnaki were often depicted or sculpted with what seem to be obviously
sunglasses.
If, however, the Anunnaki evolved on a radically different
planet from earth under quite different conditions to which to adapt, why
should they have turned out to be so identical to human species? Sitchin’s
answer is based on the collisional event between the intruder planet, Nibiru,
and the planet Tiamat, the residual part of which recongealed into the Earth
after being driven into current Earth orbit. That the two, or at least one, of
the colliding planets was sufficiently developed to have evolved basic organic
compounds, perhaps even simple life, the cross-seeding of everything from amino
acids to more complicated organic compounds or even primitive organisms, could
account for the evolutionary similarity. Although this author finds it a
reasonable hypothesis, even trivial, that advanced civilizations would be
capable of crossing extremely different genomes, perhaps with even radically
different bases, the cross-seeding theory can account for the apparent relative
ease with which the Anunnaki impinged their genes on the genes of Homo Erectus.
The Anunnaki skill level, 200,000 years ago, is indicated well by the recorded
fact that, in early trials, they succeeded in crossing animal genes with Homo
Erectus genes, obtained living hybrids but never a satisfactory product which
led them to modify Homo Erectus genes with their advanced genes.
If our genome is estimated as 98% to 99% similar to the
chimpanzee, how could there be a melding of the Homo Erectus and Anunnaki
genomes, or impingement of the advanced code on the lesser advanced one
detectable? The author suggests that this is a major question probably
answerable only by the geneticists open-minded enough to attack it. The
resolution of that question should provide rich additional clues in itself.
---END (Part 3)---
So
was Zacharia Sitchin a super duper story teller who made up the whole thing? Or
did he misinterpret the sumerian tablets like what some claim? Maybe.. But if you look at it from
the logical point of view, a lot of things start to tie in. It most certainly
isn't beyond the realms of possibility and I must say, when compared with the 2
other schools of thought i.e. the religious view that "God" created
us and Darwin's theory that we evolved from the Apes, Sitchin's theory
certainly is more probable than the other 2. And in fact, the stories in the
Bible, Quran or even greek mythology becomes more scientifically believable to
the logical mind.
