Not only were they of exceptional size-the ancient giants of myth-but archaeological discoveries show that this previously unrecognized human population achieved an advanced level of culture, including the use of high-speed drilling techniques and the creation of musical instruments. He shows how these concepts, including a complex numeric system based on long-term eclipse cycles, are derived from an extinct human population known as the Denisovans.

Remarkably, the three main pyramids at Giza in Egypt, including the Great Pyramid, align with the same three stars. Chronicling his travels to Gbekli Tepe and surrounding sites, Andrew Collins details the layout, architecture, and exquisite relief carvings of ice age animals.

New evidence showing that the earliest origins of human culture, religion, and technology derive from the lost world of the Denisovans. Built at the end of the last ice age around 9600 BCE, Göbekli Tepe in southeast Turkey was designed to align with the constellation of the celestial swan, Cygnus-a fact confirmed by the discovery at the site of a tiny bone plaque carved with the three key stars of Cygnus.
