The Annunaki - Paperback

by Robert Smith (Author)

The history of the Earth and that of the Annunaki are intertwined. The ancient Sumerians speak of a race of aliens from the planet Niburu, other tales tell of how a wandering planet collided with a giant planet Tiamat giving rise to the Earth. Other stories relate how the Annunaki created mankind to serve them. In the beginning mankind had no set life-span, and the population could only be controlled by fire, flood, or pestilence. During the final deluge the Annunaki (the Gods) wept at the suffering of mankind and gave man a set lifespan. It was during the great deluge that Ziusundra (Noah) survived on the Ark, a story that lies in the Atra-Hasis, the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Bible.The tales surrounding the Annunaki are inconsistent, conflicting and endless. This book tells, in ten interlinked stories, from their first visit 14.2 million years ago to the present day, and long into the future, the story of the Annunaki.
