Were the Anunnaki simply gods recorded in the clay tablets of ancient Mesopotamia, or memories of advanced beings who arrived on Earth in the distant past? In this episode, Robert Steven Thomas investigates the controversial theory that the Anunnaki descended from the heavens, established settlements among the earliest civilizations, and altered the course of human development. Drawing upon Sumerian creation accounts, Babylonian texts, king lists, temple traditions, and alternative interpretations of ancient history, the discussion follows claims of genetic intervention, lost technology, celestial visitors, and the origins of kingship, agriculture, mining, and organized society. From Enki and Enlil to Nibiru, the creation of humankind, and the great flood traditions, this episode asks whether the oldest written records preserve mythology, misunderstood history, or evidence of contact between humanity and beings from another world.
