	Graham Hancock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Graham Hancock (born 1951) is a British writer.
		Hancock's chief areas of interest are stone monuments or megaliths, ancient myths and astronomical/astrological data from the past.
		One of Hancock's main areas of study is the possible global connection with a 'mother culture' from which he believes all ancient historical civilizations sprang.

		Graham Hancock also makes spurious claims concerning the date of the Bolivian remains known as Tiwanaku and again he ignores all the known archaeology in favour of an earlier dating.
		Graham Hancock is at odds with the C14 dating results, the site finds and the stratigraphy of the site, which tell us a different story at Tiwanaku.
		Hancock now accepts the orthodox dating of the Giza Pyramids to circa 2,450 BCE although he still insists that the Sphinx is older and that the design for the site plan at Giza is fixed by star alignments to 10,500 BCE.

	INTERVIEW WITH GRAHAM HANCOCK
		For the past twelve years, Graham Hancock has been bent on mastering the mysteries of the lands of northern Africa, encompassing Ethiopia and Egypt in his quest for knowledge of both the Ark of the Covenant and, most recently, the monuments of the Giza plateau.
		Hancock examines the myths of a deluge that come from around the globe, analyzes their similarities and differences, and asserts that they have more in common than is recognized by academia.
		Hancock insists that the public, in the interest of the survival of the species and contemporary human knowledge, has a right to know the true history of the world.

	Antiquity of Man Graham Hancock's "science"
		I propose a shift in attention away from Hancock's own ideas to his backing of other alternative authors, and how this reflects both on his understandings of the archaeological discipline as well as on the validity of his scientific judgements.
		Graham Hancock wrote the Forward to "The Hidden History of Mankind" and his words are revealing: "Let me say at the outset that I believe this book to be one of the landmark intellectual achievements of the late twentieth century.
		Hancock also portrays a misunderstanding of scientific terminology when he uses the phrase "academic opinion"; he thus gives the distinct impression that a theory is simply nothing more than an opinion.

	Dusting for Fingerprints
		Graham Hancock writes that this city was the seat of the Viracocha, the South American civilizer-god described as white of skin and long of beard.
		Hancock conveniently fails to mention that he himself implied in Heaven's Mirror that Rivera is the "former national director" because of his belief in the unproven antiquity of Tiwanaku.
		Hancock claimed in 1995 that there was corroborating evidence for an ancient civilization in Mexico on the basis of Cuernavaca where a step pyramid lay beneath a volcanic lava mantle.

	Antiquity of Man Graham Hancock and mammoths
		An examination of a specific portion of Graham Hancock's book Fingerprints of the Gods, relating to Earth Crustal Displacement, the climates and fauna of Siberia and Alaska, and the deaths of the mammoths, finds it to be critically flawed.
		Hancock based a large portion of his book "Fingerprints of the Gods" (1995, revised 2001) on Hapgood’s evidence for catastrophe at the end of the Last Glacial Maximum, 12 000 BP.
		In the scenario painted by Hancock in Fingerprints of the Gods, Siberia and Alaska are ice free with temperate climates prior to a cataclysm occurring at the end of the Last Glacial Maximum.

	MOM and Atlantis, Mammoths, and Crustal Shift
		According to MOM, Graham Hancock (Fingerprints of the Gods) and Rand Flem-Ath, the solution is that the remains of this civilization lie buried beneath the Antarctic ice cap where it was destroyed and buried by earth crustal displacement.
		Hancock claims that the discovery of a small woolly mammoth frozen in ice in Russia in 1977 by a bulldozer operator is a clue to the answer of the above question.
		Hancock and MOM ignore the fact that the mass of the one to two kilometer thick Antarctic ice cap is negligible relative to the mass of the crust that is alleged to have moved.

	Underworld: The Mysterious Origins of Civilization by Graham Hancock
		For the purpose of the Underworld inquiry Hancock uses the term "the last Ice Age" to refer to the period between 125,000 and 17,000 years ago; and the term Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) to signify the period between approximately 22,000 and 17,000 years ago when the ice sheets were at their maximum.
		Hancock suggests that what have previously been deemed by cartographic scholars as coastline and island-group inaccuracies around the world may actually be accurate accounts of coastlines belonging to epochs before and during the Ice Age meltdown period.
		Hancock demonstrates Marco Polo's belief that Ceylon was once connected to India, was one third larger in the past, and was submerged.

		British author Graham Hancock has propelled himself into the center of vigorous debate over the origins of humanity by challenging long-accepted theories on the history of key archaeological monuments around the world.

	Notes on a Lecture by Graham Hancock
		Hancock began by acknowledging his debt to his "colleagues, especially John Anthony West," and he explained that a lot of what he would be showing us would be connected to the astro-calendrical alignments of the constellation Orion.
		Graham Hancock, acclaimed investigative journalist and author of "Message of the Sphinx" and "Fingerprints of the Gods" was a guest on Art Bell last night.
		I was impressed with Graham's presentation, which went to 'astronomical' lengths to prove that our present combination of intellect and tech HAS (at last) solved the riddle of the sphinx by using ancient starcharts and geological technology, modern technology and ancient writings.

		In fact, Hancock, a former journalist and the author of several books, including Fingerprints of the Gods, believes that certain formations on the Martian surface are the remnants of an ancient civilization--one strikingly similar to ancient Egypt--that was destroyed by a cataclysmic deep impact.
		Hancock goes on a lenghty but very pleasant to read diatribe about those constructions but where it gets immensely interesting is when he tackles the more-than-strange behavior of Nasa about the whole issue.
		Hancock does also question the possible connection between a past civilisation on Mars and ourselves and again, the evidence more than confirms his notion that such a connection is not some far-out sci-fi type thought but it is actually supported by our ancient heritage.

	On Graham Hancock's Theory (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Hancock has the Ark of the Covenant leaving Israel during the reign of Manasseh, as that ruler had introduced an idol into the Temple of Jerusalem.
		Yet Graham Hancock did a fine job of describing, circumstantially, the pre-exilic nature of the Falasha Jewish beliefs (almost an oxymoronic name given that the term "Jew" derives from Judah, the southern kingdom, and really applies more to the people who came back from Babylon--see Bernard Anderson, Understanding the Old Testament) and the intrigue remains.
		Hancock seemed happy, in the video mentioned in another posting here, to leave his "proof" in the hands of faith.

		With this in mind, the facts which Graham Hancock and other researchers like him have discovered, are no less credible than numerous accepted theroies which are easily questionable and full of holes.
		Hancock deserves a great deal of credit for two things: breathing life into an unfashionable subject; and encouraging people to question convention.

		Hancock is now researching former coastal settlements in India, south-east Asia and the Mediterranean that were submerged when sea levels rose dramatically at the end of the Ice Age, between 17,000 and 7,000 years ago.
