To gather material for Gods of the New Millennium, Alford has travelled to ancient sites around the globe to determine for him- self their commonalities. He has also embarked on an extensive critique of Zecharia Sitchin's studies of Sumeria as the ‘first civilisation’ (though we might well dis- pute this assumption), but he has revised his chronology through the discovery of a sim- ple mathematical key. As a result, Alford claims to be able to match the creation of mankind with the most recent scientific esti- mates and reconcile the arrival of the gods RUMORS OF EXISTENCE by Matthew A.

Subtitled "Newly Discovered, Supposedly Extinct, and Unconfirmed Inhabitants of the Animal Kingdom", Rumors of Existence documents, albeit briefly, the vast gaps in our knowledge about the animal world. Despite valid concerns about our planet's dwindling biodiversity, it's amazing to learn that since 1940 an average of three new birds and more than three new mammal species have been described each year. For instance, in 1992 in Vietnam near the Laotian border, an international scientific team discovered a large mammal, the Vu Quang oryx. But, as is often the case, the indigenous people are already aware of these unclassified creatures but just haven't told the outside world! ae 6 7 et Rumors of Existence Fe ‘oe } >. i fe at . “ ar — 76 = NEXUS DECEMBER 1996 - JANUARY 1997
