Arthur David Horn received his Ph.D. degree from Yale University in 1976, majoring in biological anthropology. After graduating, he taught the same subject for fourteen years as a professor at Colorado State University.

In 1988, he met a woman from California who was an alternate-minded/spiritual individual. That synchronicity changed his life and perspective dramatically.

After a great deal of research and reflection, Dr. Horn realized that the belief systems we have been taught regarding the origins of our physical bodies are not true. Rather, they serve an agenda that, for the most part, Western religious institutions and governments have propagated for their own selfish purposes, and to control the minds of the masses.

When Dr. Horn realized this, he felt a deep need to retain a sense of personal and professional integrity, and resigned from his professorship. He simply could not teach the establishment's views of humanity's physical origins to his students anymore. He then wrote the above mentioned book while living a simple life in Mt. Shasta, CA with his wife. And, he has done an outstanding job of it.

I have a great deal of admiration for people like this. It's not easy to step outside consensus reality and walk away from one's "previous" life. Especially after having spent years of hard work obtaining a Ph.D. degree.

Building upon his extensive knowledge of evolutionary patterns and forces, Dr. Horn tells us there were unexplained sudden jumps or explosions in the distant past, which caused new categories of life forms to appear, including pre-humans.

Furthermore, there have been instances in which various life forms have appeared simultaneously, or in parallel with one another, rather than in a gradual step-by-step fashion as is usually the case with evolution. 

These mysterious explosions and simultaneous jumps in evolution cannot be explained by today's scientific theories, including Darwinism. Rather, it's as though an otherworldly force influenced these natural processes by speeding up what would normally take millions of years to unfold. And, this applies to the physical bodies we, as spirits, occupy today.

Dr. Horn looks back over the sequence of pre-human physical forms that began to appear 4-5 million years ago. Once again there were the same mysterious jumps in form and appearance that sped up the emergence of our current physical bodies. These spurts cannot be explained by current theories of evolution. Once again it appears that off planet forces sped things up rather than letting nature take its course. The question is why?

The Sumerians

These same sudden jumps in evolutionary time can also be found with past civilizations. For example, the Sumerian civilization, which appeared  approximately 5000 years ago in the area of what we know today as southern Iraq, left us many archaeological remains to study.

Dr. Horn points out that the Sumerians did not gradually evolve into existence. Rather, their civilization appeared overnight complete with mathematics, language, irrigation systems, farming, writing, and an extensive knowledge of the heavens. Who helped them do this?

The people of Sumer were not primitive bushmen as we have been led to believe. Amazingly, one of their pictorial drawings (below) show that the planets in our solar system revolve around the sun; something we discovered 500 years ago.

Furthermore, the Sumerians were aware of the distant planets in our solar system: Pluto, Neptune, and Uranus, which cannot be seen with the naked eye. And, they knew that Neptune had water on it! How did they know this?

In the same drawing depicting their celestial knowledge, the Sumerians also include a 12th planet in our solar system. Could this be the mysterious Planet X?

In the below image made approximately 5000 years ago by the Sumerians, one can see our solar system with twelve planets revolving around the sun.

Zecharia Sitchin

Dr. Horn also goes into detail describing the remarkable research work of Zecharia Sitchin, and his interpretations of Sumerian writings and artifacts.

Mr. Sitchin's book, The 12th Planet (in its 45th printing, translated into 23 languages, millions of copies sold), tells a very credible story of how the Anunnaki from the 12th planet (Nibiru) in our solar system created the forerunners of the Sumerians, and then interacted with their descendents more than 5000 years ago. 

It doesn't end there. Dr. Horn points out that "one of the strongest exoteric (non-esoteric) pieces of evidence indicating ET visitation and interaction with human affairs comes from the Dogon tribe of West Africa. The credibility of the Dogon oral history is greatly enhanced by the fact that they have knowledge of the heavens that our scientists have only recently acquired..."

Sound familiar?

The Dogon of Africa

The Dogon have known for thousands of years that Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, is a double star system. That is, Sirius A, the main star, is visible to the naked eye. However, it has a companion known as Sirius B, which orbits Sirius A and, as a white dwarf, can only be seen with modern-day telescopes.

The Dogon also know that the orbit of Sirius B around the Sirius A is elliptical rather than circular. We only discovered this recently!

In the oral history of the Dogon that spans thousands of years, they speak of entities from the vicinity of Sirius, who visited their ancient ancestors in an airship, and taught them many things including how to live in harmony with their own divine nature.

The Ancient Egyptians

Dr. Horn also describes how other civilizations such as the Egyptians had a deep connection with the star Sirius, and were most likely helped by ETs from that area of our galaxy. Also, the most important female god of the ancient Egyptians, Isis, was identified with Sirius.

The Mayans

The cornerstone of Mayan beliefs and legends is the book, Popul Vuh. It contains a creation story of humans, which is similar to that told by the Sumerians. That is, "creator gods" came down from the heavens and created mankind to be slaves and serve them. These human-like forms were called "figures of wood," who were nothing more than poor servants because they did not possess souls.

It is also known that the advanced Mayan civilization that we know of seems to have appeared out of the mist some 3,500 years ago in the jungles of Mexico. Interestingly, it was an elaborately developed culture right from the start. The Mayan artifacts tell us in no uncertain terms that they were master astronomers with an intimate knowledge of the heavens. How did they get this knowledge?

ETs and Humanity

There is a lot more in Dr. Horn's book that makes a coherent, credible case for the argument that planet Earth has been visited time and time again by ETs from other star systems. Some have visited, stayed for a while, and left. Others have created living things, including human physical bodies, which resemble their own.

The author also makes the case that humanity's real origins come from the constellation Lyra; specifically from a star system called Vega. From there  our ancestors branched out to other areas of the galaxy, including the Pleiades. Some of our ancestors made lesser choices and became aggressive and war-like. Others made Higher choices and are more spiritually advanced and benevolent.

The net effect of it all is a constant ongoing battle between good and evil, whether it is here on this planet or elsewhere. And, when one stops and thinks about it, that's what makes the universe go round. Without this struggle between the dark and the Light, we would not have an opportunity to grow, learn and evolve.

In another part of this web site, a page is dedicated to unexplained artifacts that have been left behind, which support the argument that Earth has been visited by ETs. And, that other visitors and civilizations have existed here millions of years ago. It's hard to refute this collective evidence, even though the scientific establishment sweeps it under the rug, as is typically the case when they can't explain things.

I highly recommend you read Dr. Horn's book. Written in the 1990s, it can be difficult to obtain. However, you can do so by visiting this link, or if you wish to speak to the founders of this web site visit this link. They are very nice people. Or, if you'd like to order the book directly from the author you can call 415.789.8529.

Excerpts from Dr. Horn's book

"However, I have uncovered evidence that we humans were first 'created' through genetic engineering, then duped and controlled by alien races of other life forms, that are not originally of this Earth."

"I wondered for example, why the ancient Egyptians and Sumerians [5000 years ago] seemed to have been more advanced in many ways , than the much later Romans and the Europeans of the Dark Ages [500-1000 years ago].

"Von Daniken suggested that the ancient astronauts, or extraterrestrials, had somehow given biological evolution a boost that would allow humans to be able to maintain a civilization."

"... the book is also the story of the underhanded conspiracy to keep humankind ignorant of its origins and existence, especially concerning the spirituality of humans."

"When one considers the available historical evidence of considerable ET involvement in human affairs, the scientific view [Darwinism] becomes the most unbelievable, farfetched, implausible theory of human origins and development ever put forth by humankind..."

"Neo-Darwinism is the official belief system of the United States government."

 "Could it be that Darwinism is part of a massive cover-up of the ET influence on humankind? The answer is yes..."

"Mesopotamian [Iraqi, eastern Syrian and western Iranian] historical records and other sources, including esoteric sources, indicate that ETs genetically engineered modern humans and instigated the rise of civilization."

"We will see that both positively-oriented and negatively oriented  ETs were involved in the development of humankind from the beginnings of this Earth, but that negatively oriented ETs have largely been in control of the Earth for the past several thousand years."

"The main method negatively-oriented ETs have employed to keep humankind divided and controlled is by distorting and hiding spiritual truths."

"The main information the regressive ETs and their human allies have endeavored to keep from humans, is that humans are spiritual beings with a tremendous potential of evolving to more loving, blissful experiences." 

"...the good news - that positively-oriented ETs and other positive entities are trying to help humans expand their consciousness and spiritual understanding to the point where we no longer need to play the victim in the controller-victim game that has been played on Earth for thousands of years."

"The Swiss Pleiadians talk of enormous changes that are going to take place on this planet during the coming years. They talk of a grand plan, part of which is designed to place our planet back in the hands of the 'Family of Light,' from whom it was rudely seized by the 'Family of Darkness,' some three hundred thousand years ago."

"Despite evidence of considerable ET influence on this planet, during this time of rapid change, each individual human is ultimately in charge of their own lives, their own reality, especially their own spiritual evolution."
