How can an entire mountainside become a massive building? The nearly 150 feet high Caverns of Petra became immense temples but who were the people who carved these astonishing monuments and how could they have carved them out of solid rock? The decision to build in that particular area has mystified scholars and historians for centuries because there was no natural source of water supply and the locale was far from hospitable. This Petra documentary answers these and many more questions about this incredible place.

Lost Book of Enki Synopsis Tablets 10-11
This exclusive Archive presentation is an original synopsis of the Lost Book of Enki. The Lost Book of Enki is a literary work written by Zecharia Sitchin and published in 2002. Although the book is technically classified as fiction, the basis for its chronology is found in real Sumerian records and accounts of their pantheon of Gods. Sitchin utilized decades of research, translation and interpretation to fill in the gaps of the Anunnaki story as recounted in the historical records of the Sumerians, Babylonians and Akkadians.

Akhenaten, Moses & Monotheism
Rebel, tyrant, and prophet of arguably the world’s earliest monotheistic religion, Akhenaten has been called history’s first individual. His impact upon ancient Egyptian customs and beliefs stretching back for centuries was so alarming that, in the generations following his death in 1336 BC, he was branded a heretic. Official king lists omitted his name.
Akhenaten was not supposed to become pharaoh. The son of Amenhotep III, who dominated the first half of the 14th century BC, ruling over a court of unprecedented luxury and magnificence that placed great emphasis on solar theology, Prince Amenhotep, as he was then called, was younger brother to the crown Prince Thutmose. Following Thutmose’s unexpected death, though, he became the heir apparent – and when his father died in 1353 BC, he took the throne as Amenhotep IV.

Epic of Gilgamesh 1- The Coming of Enkidu
“The Epic of Gilgamesh” is an epic poem from ancient Mesopotamia and among the earliest known literary writings in the world. It originated as a series of Sumerian legends and poems in cuneiform script dating back to the early 3rd or late 2nd millenium BCE, which were later gathered into a longer Akkadian poem (the most complete version existing today, preserved on 12 clay tablets, dates from the 12th to 10th Century BCE).
It follows the story of Gilgamesh, the hero-king of Uruk, and his half-wild friend, Enkidu, as they undertake a series of dangerous quests and adventures, and then Gilgamesh’s search for the secret of immortality after the death of his friend. It also includes the story of a great flood very similar to the story of Noah in “The Bible” and elsewhere.
The presentation is a prose version first written by NK Sanders.
