A thousand years ago the Mayas created a map of the world. At Chichen Itza they built temples to represent the nations of the Western Hemisphereincluding a replica of modern day Washington, D.C. Their Temple of the Bearded Man stands where the Lincoln Memorial would stand in the future, and their memorial wall of dead soldiers was built where the Vietnam Wall would stand. Their France temple describes Frances Gaelic and German invasions, and their tectonic plates show major earthquake zonesincluding one along the Rio Grande Rift. Uxmal (meaning, The Future)the map of the Eastern Hemisphereshows Asian men in parkas on The Great Pyramid (Mt. Everest), Beijing as the home of fortunetelling, and a major earthquake in Qinghai. Overall, however, the map focuses on Americathe United States; and the Mayan creation myths describe the creation of Americanot the creation of earth. Even Omeyocan, the Mayan paradise, sounds suspiciously like, American. Did an American space-time traveler trick the Mayas into believing he was a god? Is that why they built the Yucatan Hall of Records?

Deep in the heart of the largely unexplored jungles of the Yucatan lies a storehouse of records telling the history of all humanity and revealing the origin and meaning of life. According to the "Sleeping Prophet" Edgar Cayce, nearly 13,000 years ago these records were buried at three separate locations in the world by priests of Atlantis, just before the final destruction of this fabled continent. The Hall of Records at Giza in Egypt has eluded discovery and a second hall is covered by the Atlantic Ocean near the island of Bimini in the Bahamas. The third Hall, located in the general area of the Yucatan, may now be nearing discovery. The site, Piedras Negras, Guatemala, is definitely concealing ancient buried records.In 1933 Cayce related that the third record hall, located in the Yucatan, was at that moment being excavated by archaelogists representing the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) and that some of the artifacts were sent to their museum. Subsequent research clearly showed that the only place being excavated in the Yucatan by Penn was Piedras Negras. As part of the research for this book, the actual field notes and many artifacts from the Piedras Negras excavations were examined by Dr. Lora Little at the Penn Museum.In this compelling book, John Van Auken, author of numerous Cayce-related books, and Dr. Lora Little present Cayce's story of how and why a Hall of Records was established in the Yucatan. Backed by solid archaeological evidence and astronomical correlations, the authors show how the Mayan creation story involves the constellation Orion and why Piedras Negras is the likely site of the Hall of Records. In addition, the authors reveal that Cayce has told us what is recorded in the Hall of Records through his many Akasha "readings." This is a reprint of the original 2000 bestselling issue of the book, and it contains a new author Epilogue by Dr. Lora Little detailing her discoveries visiting the site along with new photographs of the site. The book is illustrated with 172 pictures, maps, and line drawings, fully indexed.

Since 1997, a series of astounding developments have shattered American archaeology's most cherished beliefs. Excavations have uncovered solid evidence that acient America was settled at least 50,000 years ago. Genetic evidence shows that several waves of migrations came into America from not only Siberia, but also from Polynesia, China, and Japan. A mysterious genetic type has been identified in ancient American skeletal remains as well as in some modern Native Americans. This enigmatic type is linked to the Middle East and may well have originated in a location between America and Europe.Edgar Cayce, America's famous "Sleeping Prophet," gave 68 readings between 1925 to 1944 that provided information on America's Mound Builders and ancient American history. These readings have never been thoroughly analyzed and have been largely forgotten.For the first time, Cayce's statements about ancient America are compared to current archaeological evidence. Incredibly, nearly everything Cayce related about the Mound Builders is true. Well-documented and highly illustrated. This is a reissue of the book first released in 2001.

Publisher Description

"From the ancient Akashic Records, renowned psychic Edgar Cayce gives an amazingly detailed and fascinating vision into the legendary world of Atlantis and its extraordinary people. The section on the people and places of Atlantis is exclusive to Cayce's visions into this celebrated paradise. Cayce's readings describe the powerful crystal; the flying machines that could soar through the air, under water, and out into space; the energy generators that harnessed the sun's rays and channeled them into building a magnificent country of luxury, wealth, and peace. Cayce's discourses describe how the Atlanteans rejuvenated their bodies regularly, allowing them to live hundreds of years longer than we do today. But he also tells of how this great culture fell from grace and power, destroying itself and its continent in the process. In a strangely prophetic discourse, Cayce says that many ancient Atlanteans are reincarnating in the world today, bringing with them both the good and evil of that ancient land. Drs. Gregory and Lora Little, and John Van Auken present this story in an absorbing narrative of the legends of Atlantis and the latest discoveries in the ongoing search for remnants of the lost continent. The book contains over a hundred illustrations--some never published before. Included in the story of Atlantis are vignettes of the forgotten lands of Mu and Lemuria, the legend of Lilith and Amilius, Plato's history, and strange creatures of Atlantean lore. This book includes a complete description of and update on the three Atlantean record caches that Edgar Cayce identified and the modern-day explorations seeking to find these lost halls of the ancient records."--Back cover.
