TD-02The idea that traces of alien contact may have occurred during the Stone Age has fascinated both scientists and enthusiasts alike. While mainstream archaeology attributes early human advancements to natural evolutionary processes, some theorists suggest that extraterrestrial beings may have played a role in shaping human history. Could it be that signs of alien presence exist in ancient artifacts, structures, and legends?td

Unexplained Megalithic Structures

Some of the most compelling evidence cited in support of ancient alien theories are the massive stone structures built by early humans, particularly those whose construction seems to defy the technological capabilities of the time.td

Göbekli Tepe (Turkey): Dated to around 9600 BCE, this Stone Age site contains intricately carved stone pillars arranged in circular formations. The site’s advanced construction, far before the development of writing or the wheel, has led some to speculate that it could be evidence of external influence. How could early humans with no evidence of complex tools or farming knowledge achieve such architectural mastery?td

Stonehenge (England): This iconic prehistoric monument, constructed between 3000 BCE and 2000 BCE, is often suggested as another potential example. The precise alignment of its stones with astronomical events (such as solstices) raises questions about the builders’ knowledge of astronomy, which some claim could have been imparted by advanced extraterrestrial civilizations.

Puma Punku (Bolivia): This ancient structure, part of the Tiwanaku site, is renowned for its precisely cut stones, some weighing hundreds of tons, which fit together with remarkable accuracy. The engineering feats achieved here — without the use of metal tools — have led some to theorize that alien technology or assistance might have been involved.td

Ancient Art and Alien-like Figures

Beyond structures, ancient art has also been interpreted as evidence of early encounters with extraterrestrial beings. Petroglyphs, cave paintings, and artifacts from the Stone Age depict strange humanoid figures and objects that some believe resemble modern depictions of aliens and spacecraft.td

The Tassili n’Ajjer Cave Paintings (Algeria): These ancient artworks, dating back to between 6000 BCE and 4000 BCE, depict mysterious humanoid figures with round heads, large eyes, and elongated limbs. Some believe these figures resemble modern depictions of extraterrestrial “greys,” commonly associated with UFO sightings. Other images in the cave paintings show what appear to be floating objects or beings descending from the sky.td

The Wandjina Figures (Australia): Aboriginal rock art from over 4,000 years ago in Western Australia depicts the Wandjina, ancient sky spirits with large eyes, round heads, and no mouths. The striking similarity between these figures and modern descriptions of aliens has led some to speculate that the Wandjina were inspired by encounters with extraterrestrials.

Dogū Figurines (Japan): These small humanoid figures, dating back to 14,000 BCE, have distinctive “goggles” and spacesuit-like features. The unusual appearance of the Dogū has led to speculation that they may represent extraterrestrial visitors wearing advanced technology.td

Legends and Mythologies

Many ancient cultures have legends of sky gods, beings from the heavens, or star people who descended to Earth and imparted knowledge to humans. Could these myths be based on real encounters with extraterrestrial visitors?td

The Sumerians and the Annunaki: Ancient Sumerian texts mention the Annunaki, a group of deities who descended from the sky and allegedly played a key role in human civilization’s development. Some theorists interpret the Annunaki as ancient astronauts who guided early human society by sharing advanced knowledge of science, agriculture, and construction.td

The Dogon Tribe (Mali): The Dogon people have a long-standing tradition that speaks of beings from the Sirius star system, called the Nommo, who visited Earth in ancient times. What’s intriguing is that the Dogon accurately described the Sirius system’s star formation long before modern telescopes could confirm it, raising the possibility that their knowledge came from an external source.

Native American Star People: Many Native American tribes, such as the Lakota and Hopi, have oral traditions of “Star People” who came from the heavens and shared knowledge with their ancestors. These beings are often described as benefactors who helped early humans with various aspects of life, such as agriculture and spirituality.td
