The Eyes of the Sphinx: The Newest Evidence of Extraterrestrial Contact in Ancient Egypt

Summary: A Daniken fan will like this book
Review: A big part of the book is mostly Egyption history. He talks about the dating of the pyrimids was a fraud, which is very interesting. He gets into the Enoch subject for a while and much more. A Daniken fan will love this book

Summary: I say this book is quite good.
Review: Either the ancient Egyptians possessed remarkable technology that has long since been forgotten or they never built the Great Pyramids in the first place. In which case, history as we know it is a pack of lies. It's sad that most of the human race is living in ignorance of these facts. And I wonder why that is too? Well, we'll probably never know.

Summary: The Ivory Tower Scientist is Wrong Again!
Review: Eric von Daniken once again tries to expose the historians and archaeologists for their repeated dogamatic adherance to unsubstantiated and unscientific claims surrounding the Egyptian pyramids and their neighbor, the sphinx. Like the historians past that claimed that Columbus discovered America, Daniken shows conclusively that the Egyptian archaeologists have long had their heads in the desert sands.

Summary: Who are we and from where we come?
Review: Erich von Däniken is probably the first reference among researchers, who believe that our origins are extraterrestrial. Although he has no official academical degree (sometimes this is even better, because you are not occupied with conventional knowledge), he reads and thinks a lot and also travels to see all the monuments he is talking about. In his work much of Strabo's and Herodotus's writings are quoted. They have travelled over Egypt some 2,000 years ago and have recorded the existence of pyramids, great labyrinth and other things, which either haven't been found again in our times or are still not deciphered. As Zecharia Sitchin has shown in his book "Stairway to Heaven", Khufu's hieroglyph is a forgery made by Col. Vyse. Pyramids of Fourth Dynasty have no inscriptions. Why have newer pyramids been built smaller and technologically inferior to those and why are they inscribed? Such "alien" theories are always somehow hard to digest. We were taught that science is always very exact and measurable, but is more than obviously not. Czech patent No. 93304 proves that pyramids are energetic channels, although there is no good explanation, why this energetic phenomena happens (it's about sharpening of blades inside replica of Great pyramid). If the Great Labyrinth hasn't been found yet, that doesn't mean that it hasn't existed. Herodotus has proven in his works that he knew what he was writing and we credit him for that. But when we come to the things he wrote and cannot be seen now, then he certainly exaggerated the whole thing or even made it up :))). Maybe everything written here isn't true. Maybe it's Zecharia Sitchin's view that's right. Maybe none is. But this theories are by my opinion as solid as Darwin's is. All of them have lacks and holes. Only difference is that Darwin is official science and others are not. But I believe them more.

Summary: The Eyes of The Sphinx
Review: Great book that goes against the grain of the scientific community. With the facts that he brings into light it really makes you question if the scienfic community is truely scientic or just egocentrical. He writes in a way that the average person can understand. Great book.

Summary: Disappointed, needed a conclusion.
Review: I didn't think there was that much new in this book, it was like I had heard it all before. I kept reading only because I was waiting for new material to surface and soon, reading became just turning pages. This book seemed to be a vehicle to vent the authors frustration with mainstream archaeologists, which they probably deserve, however the constant criticism of them didn't make a very pleasant read.

Summary: This book kept my attention through every page!
Review: I enjoyed this book very much and would highly recommend it to someone that likes nonfiction science books. I was surprised at how many things I just have never heard about regarding Egypt. It's a fascinating book, and a great subject, so I hope that the author does not end his research on anchient Egypt with this book. Congratulations on writing such a page turner.

Summary: no new info, an attack on the establishment
Review: I have already read all the information contained in this book, somewhere else. All that is left is an attack on the credibility of the establishment, which is seemingly deserved, but constant criticism doesn't make a pleasant read. When I finished, still hungry for a conclusion, I threw this book in the trash.
