Faking History: Essays on Aliens, Atlantis, Monsters, and More

Could the story of earthâ€™s history be radically different than historians and archaeologists have led us to believe? Cable television, book publishers, and a bewildering array of websites tell us that human history is a tapestry of aliens, Atlantis, monsters, and more. But is there any truth to these â€œalternativesâ€ to mainstream history? Since 2001, skeptical xenoarchaeologist Jason Colavito has investigated the weird, the wild, and the wacky in search of the truth about ancient history. He interrogates â€œalternativeâ€ historyâ€™s most important claims to reveal the real facts that sit behind the speculation. What you are about to read is a collection of fifty of Colavitoâ€™s best essays on fake history and false claims, covering everything from Atlantis to Chupacabra to Stonehenge to UFOs, and even the demonic power of the humble dinner fork. Across these essays Colavito shines the light of reason to separate fact from speculation, to expose lies and fraud, and to get to the bottom of whatâ€™s behind claims for ancient astronauts and â€œalternativeâ€ historyâ€”drawing on the actual ancient texts TVâ€™s talking heads donâ€™t want you to actually read. If youâ€™ve ever wondered whether cable TV documentaries are telling you the truth about aliens and Atlantis, read on and learn what TV wonâ€™t tell you about faking historyâ€¦
