FEATURED SPEAKER
Graham Hancock
Graham Hancock is a well-known investigative journalist and author, renowned for his captivating work exploring ancient civilizations, alternative history, and unexplained mysteries.
With his signature passion for pre-Dark Age cultures, Hancock seeks to unravel the mysteries behind humanity’s past, and understand the cataclysms that obscured much of the historical record, while sharing his insights for our present and future society.
His thought-provoking international bestsellers books, such as “Fingerprints of the Gods” and “Underworld,” delve into controversial theories about advanced ancient technologies, lost civilizations and the reasons for their demise.
Hancock’s engaging writing and speaking style, and his willingness to challenge mainstream historical narratives, have earned him a dedicated following of readers and critics alike.
“Ancient Apocalypse” is Hancock’s highly acclaimed, No. 1 Netflix series that takes viewers on an extraordinary journey through lost chapters of our shared history.
Most history books still teach that about 5000 years ago, mankind was a primitive hunter-gatherer incapable of complex thought.
Under this paradigm, megalithic structures were built for sacrificial purposes, to deify a ruler, or to help a society ignorant of the seasons know when to plant its crops. Mankind was thought to be a brutish sort stuck in survival mode, capable of little more than primitive speech, certainly incapable of writing, which was deemed to be a requirement for building large structures and cities. But in the last few decades, and with new technology, explorers, and archaeologists began to find megalithic sites on a global scale and signs of large civilizations under the jungles, things that required math and engineering to build. Many date to a time long before any writing was invented. Our Darwinian minds always thought that whatever came before us must be more primitive but maybe we were wrong.
The myth and folklore of ancestral people from ancient Greece, Persia, India and elsewhere give us a far different story. They spoke of a time when mankind walked with the gods and lived in harmony with nature on a pristine Earth. Their stories repeatedly whisper of a long-lost Golden Age and a celestial-driven cycle where the rise and fall of the ages flowed like seasons. Most of all, they speak with reverence about the stars and our connection with the heavens. It has recently been discovered that most megalithic structures (cairns, tombs, henges, etc. around the globe) are astronomically aligned, or positioned to mark the solstices and cardinal points. Huge stones are one of the few things that still stand after several thousand years, and these structures suggest a worldwide civilization attuned to the heavens – one that might point the way to a better civilization today.
Come and learn about the latest ancient civilization discoveries, the evidence of a long-lost higher age, the cataclysm(s) that may have erased it, and the natural forces that may be bringing us back to higher consciousness.

Advanced metrology (ancient measure) prove they measured the earth in deep antiquity There is evidence that the understanding of magnetism may have initiated agriculture, and possibly the earliest attempt at written language has revealed this was the world’s first ’Supercivilization’ long before Sumer or Egypt. Hugh will also discuss his and JJ Ainsworth’s discovery of a Winter Solstice alignment at Karahan Tepe as well as cutting-edge data suggesting they were tracking Venus, the Moon and astrological cycles at this newly excavated site.
There are even statues depicting 8-fingered beings, but it’s the megalithic technology and the sophisticated relief carvings that has got people talking, as it was way ahead of its time. Were the builders the Sumerian Anunnaki, or the Watchers from The Book of Enoch, and how did they create these remarkable megalithic temples nearly 12,000 years ago?

TOPIC: Nature’s Magic • The Power Of Water
Veda is a New Zealand water researcher and has spent the last 10 years prolifically photographing water in a ‘state of creation’, the stage between liquid and ice. She views this important phase from three perspectives. Scientifically, water is becoming a liquid crystal, artistically, water is free to design, and from a spiritual level, water enters a phase of fluidity between space and time, and is in a place of ‘becoming’. Using her own short term freezing method, Veda explains that it is light that paves the way for the design of the ice, just as it is light that emanates from conscious expression.
