The Ancient Alien Theory




Some writers propose that intelligent extraterrestrial beings have visited earth in prehistory and made contact with humans. Such visitors are called ancient atronauts or ancient aliens. Believers suggest that this contact influenced the development of human cultures, technologies and religions.  


Erich von Daniken was one of the main figures in popularizing the ancient alien theory. His book “Chariot of the Gods” was an instant best seller and made people share his point of view.

-          

      Believers argue that the evidence for ancient astronauts 
      comes from supposed gaps in historical and archaeological records. They also explain absent or incomplete historical
     data. Such as the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Nazca lines
     in Peru


I think this whole theory is complete bogus. There is a much simpler reason to as why there are pyramids standing in Egypt: The ancient Egyptians were a very accomplished civilization, they proved they were capable mathematicians 
and architects with all their other work.
