Chariots
of
the
Gods
BY
ERICH
VON
DANIKEN
Erich
von
Daniken's
Chariots
of
the
Gods
is
a
work
of
monumental
importance--the
first
book
to
introduce
the
shocking
theory
that
ancient
Earth
had
been
visited
by
aliens.
This
world-famous
bestseller
has
withstood
the
test
of
time,
inspiring
countless
books
and
films,
including
the
author's
own
popular
sequel,
The
Eyes
of
the
Sphinx.
But
here
is
where
it
all
began--von
Daniken's
startling
theories
of
our
earliest
encounters
with
alien
worlds,
based
upon
his
lifelong
studies
of
ancient
ruins,
lost
cities,
potential
spaceports,
and
a
myriad
of
hard
scientific
facts
that
point
to
extraterrestrial
intervention
in
human
history.
Most
incredible
of
all,
however,
is
von
Daniken's
theory
that
we
ourselves
are
the
descendants
of
these
galactic
pioneers--and
the
archeological
discoveries
that
prove
it...
