They help us understand how these past cultures approached the deepest metaphysical and phenomenological questions. Many ancient sites reveal aspects of this other consciousness to us. This is why I remain fascinated with thinkers such as Rudolf Steiner (who I will write about again soon) and Jean Gebser: They help us define this past condition, and point to our potential of accessing and reintegrating this lost consciousness, which might take us beyond what was attained in the past. In my work, I propose, instead, that what we have lost is not a physical civilization we can find and excavate, but a different kind of consciousness, knowledge, or state of being that is outside time, space, and history as we currently know and conceive it. He stridently propounds the unsubstantiated thesis that what has been hidden is a literal lost civilization annihilated 12,000 years ago, leaving no trace. Hancock taps into a deep intuition shared by many of us that the “official story” of our species’s history is incomplete and that something very important - even the most crucial thing - has been hidden from us. Many of my friends love the series, raving about it on Instagram and Facebook. In past works, Graham identified this lost civilization as Atlantis, the lost city-state mentioned by Plato.Īncient Apocalypse is a monster hit right now. A few survivors of this civilization then went around the world at the end of the ice age, bringing aspects of their knowledge system to more primitive hunter-gatherers. As he proposed in his bestseller The Fingerprints of the Gods (1995) and subsequent works, this advanced, global civilization was located on what is now Antarctica, apparently completely wiped away by massive floods, “earth crust displacement,” and an ice age over 12,000 years ago. In Ancient Apocalypse, his new Netflix series, Graham Hancock develops his thesis of a lost “high” civilization.
