The Dome of the Rock, the Temple of Jupiter, Pumapunku.

They are sites sacred to millions of people, and they are all built atop the

ruins of structures that are far more ancient.

Some of the most iconic temple sites around the world are built on the exact

same location as former temples, and the question is why?

What compelled early humans to build and rebuild in the same place again

and again?

It seems they were not only doing it for practical purposes, but also for

religious and spiritual reasons.

Are there locations on Earth that hold special power?

The local population say it was not us who built it. It was the God.

And might we find that they were once occupied?

by extraterrestrials.

There is no question in my mind that these are much older sites than we think

and that they were spots for extraterrestrial communication a long,

ago.

There is a doorway in the universe.

Beyond it is the promise of truth.

It demands we question everything we have ever been taught.

The evidence is all around us.

The future is right before our eyes.

We are not alone.

We have never been alone.

Cusco, Peru.

Nestled in a high river valley of the Andes Mountains, among peaks towering

20 ,000 feet.

This once great city served as the capital of the Inca Empire from the 13th

16th centuries AD.

In 1533, Spanish conquistadors arrived in Cusco and were astonished

by the incredible stonework found at a site just north of the city called

Sansehuaman.

Above the city of Cusco, we find the megalithic site and huge ceremonial Inca

complex called Sacsayhuaman.

Its most prominent feature is a zigzag wall of three levels.

Some of the stones there weigh as much as 125 tons and were removed from the

quarry at least three miles away.

Sacsayhuaman is one of the most beautiful ancient structures you will

in your life.

There are massive, gigantic, megalithic blocks, and you find the most amazing

of masonry style where you can't even fit a dollar bill in between the

of any of the blocks.

Sangsewomen served both as a fortress and a ceremonial center, a circular

structure that lies within the megalithic walls called Mayuk Marka.

was the base of a tower where the Inca worshiped the sun god Inti.

However, many experts suggest that while the Inca certainly utilized this

megalithic structure, they were not the ones to build it.

Standard belief is that the Inca constructed Sacsayhuaman less than a

years ago.

But some of the earliest Spanish chronicles, it is said...

that the Spanish were completely astounded by seeing this site, and they

the local Inca, did you build it? And the Inca replied, no, this was here when

we arrived 500 years ago.

Many experts believe Sacsayhuaman predates the Inca by thousands of years,

that the Inca built on top of what came before.

The Inca were a Bronze Age civilization.

And the stones at Sacsayhuaman are metamorphosed limestone, which is much

than bronze and could not be cut or shaped using bronze tools.

Inca built on top, because you can tell a major difference between megalithic

construction, where the stones fit perfectly together, and the Inca, which

stones piled on top of stones with mortar as filler.

But at Sacsayhuaman, really does predate the Inca, as the Inca themselves

claimed.

How could an even earlier civilization have possessed far superior technology?

The ancient Inca talk about celestial beings who descended from the sky a

long time ago and imparted the first knowledge of anything toward people of

Earth. The ancient astronaut theory suggests it was human beings who built

Sacsayhuaman, but under the tutelage of the extraterrestrials.

Is it possible that the astonishing megalithic stonework at Sacsayhuaman was

achieved with the help of alien technology, as ancient astronaut

suggest?

And if so, might the Inca have built on top of it?

and established it as a place of worship because they were somehow aware of

this.

Sacsayhuaman is only one of many places where ancient civilizations have felt

compelled to repeatedly build their most sacred sites.

In fact, there are locations all around the world where successive cultures have

rebuilt over and over again.

This has been going on since the end of the last Ice Age with places like

Göbekli Tepe in southeast Turkey where the oldest and most sophisticated

monuments were built first on the bedrock and then eventually they would

covered over and a new structure, a new enclosure built on top of them.

Some of the most iconic temple sites around the world, from Baalbek and

to the Temple of Horus at Edfu in Egypt, are built on the exact same location as

former temples that were reputed to be there.

And the question is, why?

It is not uncommon for people to repurpose an old structure or rebuild on

foundation for practical purposes.

But what ancient astronaut theorists find intriguing...

is how the most sacred sites tend to remain sacred over thousands of years.

And of all the places in the world where this phenomenon is found, perhaps there

is none more universally revered than the 35 -acre platform in Jerusalem known

as Temple Mount.

The Temple Mount is arguably the most important spiritual site in the world.

All three of the primary monotheistic religions have a connection to the

of history that occurred on top of the Temple Mount.

It's believed that it's this stone from which the world originates.

It's a crucial element in the Jewish tradition. When Isaac is offered up for

sacrifice by Abraham, this happens on the exposed surface of Mount Moriah.

That's the Temple Mount.

For Muslims, this is where the Prophet Muhammad sends up to heaven. That stone

is now covered over by the Dome of the Rock, this very important Islamic

monument.

The Dome of the Rock has stood at Temple Mount for more than 1 ,300 years.

But the very first temple to occupy this sacred space was the legendary

Solomon's Temple, constructed upon order of the Israelite king in the 10th

century BC.

According to the Hebrew Bible, King Solomon received a message from the

to build his temple on this spot.

Its primary purpose was to house the Ark of the Covenant, the golden box which

carried the two stone tablets inscribed with the Ten Commandments, and which was

said to be God's earthly throne.

Solomon has a communication with the angel Michael, who comes and helps.

to build this.

And so not only is this the presence of God on this spot, it's God who's helping

in the building of this. And so that's part of what makes that place so

so literally divine.

Solomon's temple was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 B .C. But 70 years

later... Jewish exiles returning to Jerusalem built a new temple on the

same location.

That's what we call the second temple. And that temple survives until the year

70 AD when it's destroyed by the Romans.

Then in the 7th century, Muslims conquered Jerusalem. They built the Dome

Rock there. And so there's been a long history of different people coming in,

taking control, building, rebuilding places there.

Solomon was instructed to build the temple on this incredibly important

So why is this space important?

Is it an energetic space? Is it a portal?

What we see over and over again with these profound religious sites all over

world is we see this reverence for power places endures from the earliest

human history to today. We're constantly building on top of these places.

If a higher power instructed King Solomon to build on Temple Mount, could

be something special about this particular location on Earth?

And could the same be true for other places around the world where successive

cultures built again and again?

Perhaps further clues can be found by examining one of the most astonishing

megalithic sites in the world and stories about its connection to the

Balbek, Lebanon.

Here, in the fertile Bekaa Valley, stands what many consider to be the

ruin of Roman antiquity, the colossal temple of Jupiter.

But the imposing remains that tower over the site today are only the latest in a

long line of structures erected on this spot.

Archaeologists say, The area has been continually inhabited for at least 10

years.

And no one knows who built the first place of worship here.

But according to legend, both Egyptian and Assyrian conquerors erected

sanctuaries on the site, followed by the Canaanites and Phoenicians, who built a

great temple here to their god Baal around 2500 BC.

Baalbek is one of those places where you have different people over millennia

building their shrines, their temples, to their particular gods or goddesses.

You've got this temple that's built by the Phoenicians for one of their

Baal.

Then Alexander the Great conquers this area and, surprise, surprise, builds a

temple to the Greek gods.

In the first century B .C., Roughly 300 years after Alexander the Great, the

Romans conquer Lebanon and decide to erect a temple here to their chief god,

Jupiter.

The main Roman temple once boasted 54 columns, each a staggering 65 feet in

height. But while visitors to the ruins may first notice the towering Roman

columns, the most impressive feature at Baalbek is its massive foundation.

To this day, Baalbek, Lebanon has remained one of the most enduring

planet Earth.

Because the masonry that we find there is unparalleled compared to the rest of

the world. In fact, there are three stone blocks called the Trilithons, each

weighing approximately 800 metric tons, which is 1 .6 million pounds.

Each of these blocks is approximately 62 feet in length by about 14 feet in

depth and 12 feet in breadth.

And they're not even on the ground. So whoever placed them there in ancient

times would have had to raise them up to a height of about 20 feet.

Each of the stones were quarried two miles away and put perfectly into place

with such precision that you can't even put a credit card or a needle in between

those massive blocks.

How ancient people carved and moved such massive stones is a question that

baffles archaeologists to this day.

And equally as mysterious is who placed them there.

The giant blocks in the foundation are clearly of a different building style

than the temples that sit above.

And in my opinion, that platform is not just ancient, it is prehistoric.

But if the platform at Baalbek was constructed thousands of years before

Romans arrived in the Bekaa Valley, why did they choose this as the site to

build their most magnificent temple?

One pioneering Russian scholar has proposed that humans may have been drawn

this location because it was the site of one of Earth's earliest

extraterrestrial events.

Leningrad, USSR, 1961.

Scientist and mathematician, Dr.

Mattes Agrest.

sends shockwaves through the world of academia with an article in which he

a new theory called paleocontact, a precursor to what is known today as the

ancient astronaut theory, suggesting that certain biblical texts could be

interpreted as evidence of alien visitation.

And, according to Agrest, one place where such visitations occurred was

Dr. Mattes Agrest went into the ancient record, the Book of Enoch and other

Hebrew texts, and noticed that there were beings coming from the sky or the

stars that came to Earth.

And he came up with a theory that they were extraterrestrial beings who came to

Earth to assist humanity in developing advanced technology to build stone

constructions such as what we see at Baalbek in Lebanon.

Agrest wrote about the Watchers.

a group of fallen angels who, according to the biblical account, descended to

Earth at Mount Hermon, very near the site of Baalbek.

Agreste suggested that the watchers were, in fact, visitors from another

who built the megalithic platform at Baalbek as a launch pad.

He thought it was a giant stone platform that spaceships could land on and take

off from.

And this makes a lot of sense because it's so incredibly solid with these huge

stone blocks in it that even huge vehicles such as rockets could land and

take off from this huge platform.

Two decades after the publication of Aggress' controversial article.

Author and researcher Zechariah Sitchin came to the same conclusion about

Baalbek based on a 5 ,000 -year -old Sumerian text.

The Epic of Gilgamesh tells of a hero of superhuman strength who embarks on an

impossible quest.

In the course of his journeys, Gilgamesh arrives at a site where he encounters

otherworldly gods, a sight that sounds suspiciously like Baalbek.

In the Sumerian epic of Gilgamesh, which is one of the great and important

legends of human history, we have the hero arriving in a place known as the

landing place.

The space which allows the ascent and the descent of beings from the heavens

the earth.

Zachariah Sitchin in the 1970s proposed, based on his reading of the Epic of

Gilgamesh, that Gilgamesh himself had seen some sort of a spacecraft take off

from a landing site and pinpointed that site as Baalbek.

Is it possible that Baalbek was a landing pad for alien visitors and that

remained so for thousands of years?

Could that be why so many ancient peoples such as the Egyptians,

Canaanites, Phoenicians, Greeks, and Romans, all chose to build and rebuild

of their greatest temples on this spot.

Perhaps further clues can be found by examining new discoveries made at a

mysterious ancient site on the other side of the world.

1549. While searching for the southern capital of the Inca Empire, Spanish

conquistador Pedro Cieza de Leon comes upon something far stranger.

A vast abandoned city near the shore of Lake Titicaca that the locals call

Tiwanaku.

The ruined city contains temples, huge megalithic structures,

and vast ceremonial buildings.

Tiwanaku was huge. It spanned for miles and miles and had a population of

perhaps as many as 20 ,000 people.

Among Tiwanaku's most impressive ruins is a carved monolith called the Gateway

to the Sun and a terrace mound called Pumapunku, containing stone blocks cut

with extraordinary precision.

According to archaeologists, the Tiwanaku complex once served as the

a sprawling empire that rose and fell centuries before the Inca.

This is why we have the term called the pre -Inca. But who were the pre

-Inca? And this is where it gets interesting, because pre -Inca

more sophisticated than Inca construction.

While some mainstream historians say the site dates back only to the Bronze Age,

others maintain it is far older.

Arthur Poznanski spent an exorbitant amount of time at Tionaku and he

an actual origin date of Tionaku, which he based to be around 12

,500 BC, which is an incredible time because...

At that time, according to mainstream archaeology, we were munching on

So it opens up the possibility that this site is vastly more ancient than we're

led to believe.

And we're only just now beginning to discover the complete history of that

Some experts believe that the builders of Tiwanaku were the ancestors of the

local Aymara people, who still live in the area today.

But many of the Aymara themselves disagree.

The local population, the ancient Aymara culture, say it was not us who built

this. It was the gods, los dioses.

Recently, the mystery of who built Tiwanaku only deepened with a staggering

discovery, not within the city, but beneath it.

2017.

Researchers from UNESCO, working with local archaeologists at Tiwanaku,

findings that send shockwaves through the world of archaeology.

While analyzing satellite imagery and ground -penetrating radar of the

site, they find dozens of previously unknown structures buried virtually

everywhere they look.

What this aerial technology has found is

34 acres of Harris Mound, underground platforms, an element

of a pyramid complex.

Undated construction reveals that temples may have taken the form

of industrial strength platforms.

And this begs the question, why are the bases, these platforms,

So industrial strength.

It's as though they were built to support extreme weight.

So originally there could have been one large mega -platform, similar to what we

find at Baobag.

This could have belonged to a much earlier civilization.

If Tiwanaku is yet another sacred site where successive cultures built temples

atop the ruins of far earlier structures,

Is it possible that there is a connection to extraterrestrial

As far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, Tiwanaku's most

ruins at Pumapunku provide the best evidence that the site was not only

significant to the native people, but also to otherworldly visitors.

Pumapunku is to me...

the most important place on Earth as far as an extraterrestrial visitation would

be concerned.

The construction style at Puma Punku does not exist anywhere else on

Earth. These stones, some of them weighing 100 tons, are made of antisite

other hard materials that today we would use a diamond -tipped drill in order to

shape or mold such stones.

How did they do it with hammers and chisels?

Like the foundation stones beneath Baalbek and the megalithic blocks of

Sacsayhuaman, the buried platforms beneath Pumapunku raise a provocative

question.

Why were the largest, heaviest, and most sophisticated parts of these sites,

those that date back farthest in time?

According to ancient astronaut theorists, more than 12 ,000 years ago,

civilizations existed on Earth that possessed incredible technology given to

them by extraterrestrial beings.

The ancient Egyptians referred to a time called the first time when

the gods, extraterrestrial beings, walked among men, pre -10 ,000 B .C.

We have authentic legends about these lost lands and lost worlds, and that

extraterrestrials were here at the same time. We have these all over the world.

We have the stories of Atlantis and Lemuria.

Many cultures around the world have also these same legends and lores and myths

of cataclysms. The Scandinavians have this.

Also, we have the flood of Noah.

We have the Greeks also have tales of a flood.

What we now know from incredible amount of evidence coming from every part

of the world is around 10 ,800 BC, the Earth

suffered a terrible catastrophe in the form of a comet impact, known

as the Younger Dryas event.

And this...

devastated every continent of the world with fires and floods.

So now it looks like we're looking at a secret history of planet Earth. One

where there's extraterrestrial intervention and there were

activities going on then and they were destroyed in a cataclysmic flood.

From Baalbek and Lebanon to the Temple Mount to Pumapunku.

Some of these sites are thought to be the locations where pre -flood temples

once existed.

So after the cataclysm, people are regaining civilization and they go back

the exact same location as previous temples and rebuild the temple there.

Could it be that the most ancient structures found at sacred sites all

world belong to civilizations that have been lost to history?

Civilizations where extraterrestrials once lived?

among humans, before falling victim to a cataclysmic event.

Perhaps further clues can be found by examining a site in Peru where the Inca

claimed to have had a direct line of communication with the gods.

Cusco, Peru.

In the heart of the ancient Incan capital.

stands the convent of Santo Domingo, a Spanish church constructed roughly 400

years ago.

But still visible beneath the church are the remnants of an older and far more

impressive structure, the Incan temple of Coricancha.

Coricancha is probably the premier site for the ancient Incan civilization.

This was the crowning jewel of their empire.

It reflected the Incan political power as well as the religious power.

It had gold plating all along its walls, inside and out, so it glowed in

the sun.

And it was a very imposing structure.

It had a base that was a curved wall with a big garden at the bottom.

and inside it had a number of temples.

After the Spanish conquistadors sacked Cusco in November of 1533, they

demolished the Coricancha and built a convent and church on its monumental

foundation.

All that's left of the original structure is the impressive stonework of

base and some underground rooms.

But some experts believe the surviving stonework of the Coricancha is too

monumental and sophisticated to have been achieved with the Bronze Age tools

the Inca and was built instead by an earlier unknown civilization.

With the Korakansha, we have good evidence that when the Inca arrived in

area, there was already an earlier megalithic temple there. They were

building on something that was already there, like possibly an ancient

possibly an underground temple, because there's evidence of tunnels in this

area.

For ancient astronaut theorists, this raises the same question posed by

and Tiwanaku.

Why did ancient people repeatedly build temple after temple on the same sacred

spot?

And some believe that in the case of the Coricancha, Inca legends may provide a

pivotal clue.

Because tradition states that a special spot within the Coricancha allowed

communication directly with the heavens, but only when it was activated by the

most sacred relic in the Inca world, a mysterious golden disk called the Inti

Punchaco.

The most legendary relic of any Peruvian era was said to have been kept in the

original Coricancha.

This was the Inti Punchaco.

This sun disk, this golden artifact, allowed whoever possessed it

to commune directly with the gods.

According to the Inca, Within the Coricancha, the Intipunchaco disk

direct contact with their creator god, Viracocha.

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that the specific placement of it was

important because it may have been receiving a signal from beyond Earth.

And they believe the exact spot where it was activated still exists in a chamber

of the Coricancha that was spared destruction by the Spanish.

In the Coricancha is this special niche, and today they've covered it with a

plexiglass sheet, but it has blocks that are perfectly cut and articulated in

unusual ways, little notches and things, plus drilled holes that go through it,

which seem to be for electric cables or something.

So it would appear that some device was...

placed into this niche in the wall that was like a monitor of some kind.

And they've chosen this spot, and all for reasons that we do not understand.

So could it be that at the Coricancha there was a sacred kind of part of the

site there where they were connecting with the gods?

Actually something in the land, like a magnetic hotspot or a vortex.

that the Inca and then later the Spanish became aware of.

Is it possible that ancient Peruvians possessed a device that allowed them to

communicate with beings from beyond Earth?

And that the location of the Coricancha was essential to activating this

technology?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and suggest that clues as to just how such a

technology might have worked can be found by examining mysterious magnetic

anomalies detected at one of the most remote ancient sites in the world.

In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, roughly 2 ,500 miles northeast of

lie the ruins of a once great ancient city,

Non -Midal.

consisted of hundreds of man -made islets off the eastern coast of

It has been dubbed the eighth wonder of the world.

The site of Nan Madal on the island of Pompeii in Micronesia is one of the

strangest places on the planet.

It's an 11 square mile complex composed of over 250 million tons of

basalt logs.

They're floating on a...

submerged coral reef.

They're 18 feet long, 4 feet in diameter, and are stacked 40 feet up in

Why did they do this, and how did they do this?

Today, the site lies abandoned and shunned by the local Micronesians, who

consider it haunted.

Nan Madal is one of these disappeared civilizations.

It's fascinatingly interesting.

This seems to have been the center of power of a major civilization, and yet

also seems that it might have been built on earlier civilizations that are lost

in time.

Since stone is difficult to accurately date, no one knows for certain when it

was constructed or how it was built.

When you ask the local population, where were these blocks quarried?

In unison, they will tell you... from across the island, and they were flown

across the island.

According to legend, twin sorcerers of giant proportions came down from

the sky and floated above the site and positioned the basalt columns as they

desired. A legend that's very similar to the same story at Pumapunku.

When I hear stories like that, I wonder, well, perhaps we have another example

of what I refer to as misunderstood technology.

As with other sites like Pumapunku, Baalbek, and the Coricancha, legend says

that these structures were not the first to exist here, but instead were built

above a much older city.

The mystery of Nanamadol is even more intriguing when we factor in the local

legend that states that it was built on an earlier civilization called the

Kanamueso, which is submerged below water but still has those

same basalt megaliths.

Objects that appear to be basalt columns have in fact been found beneath the

ocean at Nanamadol.

And those who have studied the columns both above and below the water have

discovered a curious electromagnetic anomaly.

There's a strong magnetic field in every single one of the 250 million tons of

basalt there.

You can take a compass and run it along these basalt blocks, and your compass

will just spin as you move it along the blocks.

Also, it's thought that...

The site itself is a special power spot and an energy vortex.

And that's why Nan Madol is built there. And this legendary sunken city

called Canemueso as well.

The local population also reports many, many sightings of orbs and

lights that have been seen hovering around Nan Madol.

Is it because of the magnetic spectrum of Earth?

And you have to wonder if through magnetism the stones were transported in

first place, if they were transported through the air.

Some ancient astronaut theorists suggest that elevated electromagnetic energy

present at Non -Midal was not only a powerful tool used to move the giant

columns.

But that it may also have been the reason that extraterrestrials helped the

locals to build here in the first place.

Could it be that there was a sacred kind of part of the site there where they

were connecting with the gods?

You know, not just through visionary experiences, but actually something in

land, like a magnetic hotspot or a vortex.

We hear the word vortex in science fiction, popular culture, all the time.

vortex is just a mathematical thing that describes a swirling motion. An

electromagnetic field can be formed in a vortex.

You can create a vortex that would enable transporting information from

somewhere else to here at the speed of light or faster than the speed of light.

And if there are places on the Earth where these types of vortexes may be

stronger than others, you can see people going there to build structures that

maybe altered the electromagnetic field of the local environment.

Was there even some kind of portal or vortex present in some of these sacred

places?

If that's the case, we have to question these principles of oracle sites,

megalithic temples.

Were they built to harness this, to be these communication portals between

different places?

There is no question in my mind that these are much older sites than we think

and that they were spots for extraterrestrial communication a long,

ago.

Is it possible that certain locations around the world act as vortexes of

electromagnetic energy?

And that ancient people built their most sacred sites in these very spots in

order to communicate with otherworldly beings?

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that although this notion may sound far

-fetched, scientists at NASA recently found evidence that such portals really

exist.

Huntsville, Alabama, October 30th, 2008.

NASA makes a groundbreaking announcement that there is indisputable evidence of

magnetic portals connecting the Earth and the Sun.

These portals open every eight minutes and allow the transfer of high -energy

particles between the two celestial bodies.

So you have these two really powerful magnets, the Earth and the Sun, and

field lines are crossing each other, but every now and then, for whatever

reason, we have these flux transfer events where the field lines will

connect to each other.

And they create a pathway for the magnetic field of the sun to literally

connected to the magnetic field of the Earth. And it's even being referred to

the scientific literature as magnetic portals.

We actually have a connection that could be a transit tube or a pathway for

information to travel from the sun to the Earth or vice versa.

Ancient astronaut theorists, have long been intrigued by the concept of

electromagnetic portals, since in theory they could provide a means of

communicating, or even traveling rapidly across the vast distances of space.

The NASA discovery poses an intriguing question.

Could sites around the world, where successive cultures built their most

temples, be locations that facilitate the creation of magnetic portals?

Could a civilization with a more advanced knowledge of physics than we

currently make use of this flux transfer of these magnetic field lines

connecting between their star and other planets?

Could it create a means of traveling quickly from one point to the other

them? Or maybe even something else that we just haven't discovered yet.

Maybe these sites were kind of manipulating the energy of the cosmos

earth to open these portals up for this kind of purpose.

And what or who were they really communicating with? Was it really the

Was it the ancestors?

Or was it otherworldly beings?

where sacred structures have been built again and again, have electromagnetic

properties similar to non -medal, properties that could be harnessed to

gateways to connect with otherworldly beings.

Over and over around the world, from the beginning of time to now, we see that

sacred sites and power points have been marked by humankind.

Temples have been built to communicate.

from Earth to Heaven.

Quite clearly, these places are somewhere that we keep coming back to.

call them portals, we call them vortices.

They are gateways onto another world, and they are very, very important, not

just for human experience, but for evolution itself.

Are humans drawn to certain locations on Earth by a magnetic force?

Do we build our most sacred temples on the same sites again and again because

these locations connect us to the cosmos?

Perhaps as we continue to unearth even more ancient ruins, we will come to

better understand our connection to the universe and the truth about our

extraterrestrial past.
