  • The Forbidden History of the Nephilim

    From Genesis and the Book of Enoch to Greek mythology and the hybrid gods of Egypt and Mesopotamia, ancient cultures repeatedly described a forgotten age when powerful nonhuman beings interacted with mankind and produced extraordinary offspring. Were these simply symbolic myths created independently around the world—or distorted memories of real beings once known as the Nephilim? Could the strange giant traditions, elongated skulls, hybrid deities and mysterious megalithic structures preserve fragments of knowledge passed down from a civilization that disappeared before recorded history? And if the ancient writers were warning us rather than entertaining us, what exactly were they trying to ensure humanity would never forget?
