The theory of extraterrestrial influence on humanity is popular, but many scholars argue that the idea of ancient aliens debunked reveals something deeper: that humans themselves were responsible for their extraordinary achievements. From the construction of vast stone monuments to the development of early sciences, these feats point to forgotten knowledge and ingenuity rather than external intervention. This perspective restores agency to our ancestors and challenges us to rethink the narrative of human origins.

At the heart of this debate lies the origins of human consciousness. How did early humans transition from survival-driven beings to creators of art, myth, and advanced architecture? Some traditions suggest that altered states, rituals, and cosmic events shaped the way humans perceived themselves and their place in the universe. The unlocking of higher awareness may have been as transformative as any physical invention, forming the foundation for civilization itself.

One profound key to this awakening was the practice of sacred sexuality, often found in ancient traditions that linked fertility, divinity, and cosmic order. These rites were not only about physical union but also about merging the spiritual and the material, accessing states of transcendence, and harmonizing the individual with the cosmos. Such practices may have been central to the philosophies that inspired monumental achievements and guided societal structures in antiquity.

The enduring ancient megaliths mystery—from Stonehenge to Göbekli Tepe—reflects these intertwined themes of consciousness, ritual, and knowledge. The upcoming novel Myth of Ends draws upon this tapestry, exploring how myths of sacred sexuality, mysteries of human awareness, and the rejection of simplistic ancient alien theories converge in a story of destiny and survival. It invites readers to imagine a world where the stones themselves hold the memory of humanity’s true awakening.
