關於這本有聲書
From the ruins of Sumer and Babylon to the echoes of Egypt, India, and Mesoamerica, ancient civilizations left behind more than broken temples and forgotten tablets—they left a memory of gods who descended from the stars. Known as the Anunnaki, these lords of heaven and earth appear in hymns, myths, and king lists not as distant abstractions, but as radiant beings who walked among mortals, founded cities, bestowed kingship, and shaped the destiny of humanity. Their descent was not fleeting—it was the catalyst for civilization itself.
Arrival of the Anunnaki takes readers deep into Mesopotamian lore, exploring the fiery chariots, winged discs, and cosmic councils that defined the world's earliest myths. From Eridu, the first city where kingship was "lowered from heaven," to the enigmatic star Nibiru—the supposed homeworld of the gods—this book traces the story of descent, transformation, and memory. It uncovers how these myths of star-born rulers resonate across cultures: the divine kings of Egypt's Zep Tepi, the vimana-riding devas of India, and the radiant Feathered Serpents of Mesoamerica.
Blending archaeology, mythology, and the controversial legacy of thinkers like Zecharia Sitchin and Erich von Däniken, this book examines how the Anunnaki became both the architects of ancient cities and the cornerstone of modern debates about humanity's origins. Were they gods, archetypes, or visitors from beyond? Arrival of the Anunnaki does not claim to settle the question—it reveals how the memory of their descent continues to shape religion, history, and imagination, from the first ziggurats to today's search for our place among the stars.
