Could the story of earth’s history be radically different than historians and archaeologists have led us to believe? Cable television, book publishers, and a bewildering array of websites tell us that human history is a tapestry of aliens, Atlantis, monsters, and more. But is there any truth to these “alternatives” to mainstream history?Since 2001, skeptical xenoarchaeologist Jason Colavito has investigated the weird, the wild, and the wacky in search of the truth about ancient history. He interrogates “alternative” history’s most important claims to reveal the real facts that sit behind the speculation.What you are about to read is a collection of fifty of Colavito’s best essays on fake history and false claims, covering everything from Atlantis to Chupacabra to Stonehenge to UFOs, and even the demonic power of the humble dinner fork. Across these essays Colavito shines the light of reason to separate fact from speculation, to expose lies and fraud, and to get to the bottom of what’s behind claims for ancient astronauts and “alternative” history—drawing on the actual ancient texts TV’s talking heads don’t want you to actually read.If you’ve ever wondered whether cable TV documentaries are telling you the truth about aliens and Atlantis, read on and learn what TV won’t tell you about faking history…Title Length : 014Single Author : Colavito, Jasonwords : 93711Number of Words in Auth: 2Record ID : TEMPLATE ERROR Value: unknown field idNumber of Formats : 0Title Parm D : Faking HistoryNum of Aut : 1Has Cover : TEMPLATE ERROR Interpreter: Internal error evaluating an expression: 'Metadata object has no attribute named: 'has_cover'' - line number 1Uncomma Author : Jason ColavitoAll Identifiers : goodreads:19039528, mobi-asin:B00BYIZEY4Sorted Author by LN, FN: Colavito, JasonTitle Parm B : (Title Parm A : Faking HistoryTitle Parm F : Faking HistoryAuszeichnung : isbn searched
