Zacharia Sitchin
Nachdem sein Buch über den “zwölften Planeten“ Ende des letzten Jahrhunderts schon für viel Aufsehen gesorgt hat und Anne Brewer in ihrem Buch seine Erkenntnisse mit eingearbeitet hat, kam ich nicht umhin ihm einen eigenen Menüpunkt zu widmen. Leider gab es die Kindle-Ausgabe seines Buches nur auf Englisch Kann mich erinnern, dass sich die deutsche Übersetzung damals für mich wie ein Krimi las!
Es ist im Internet etwas über ihn zu erfahren. Der Eintrag in der Wkipedia sieht so aus:
Zecharia Sitchin (July 11, 1920 – October 9, 2010) was an author of a number of books proposing an explanation for human origins involving ancient astronauts. Sitchin attributed the creation of the ancient Sumerian culture to the Annunaki, which he claimed was a race of extraterretials from a planet beyond Neptune called Nibiru. He claimed that Sumerian mythology suggests that this hypothetical planet of Nibiru is in an elongated, 3,600-year-long elliptical orbit around the Sun. Sitchin's books have sold millions of copies worldwide and have been translated into more than 25 languages.
