Cuneiform (left panel) is a wedge shaped character which was the writing system of ancient Mesopotamia which included the region of Sumer.  For an excellent review of Sumerian writing system see: http://www.ancientscripts.com/sumerian.html 

So what does an ancient writing system have to do with ‘Who Are You?’.  One of the most curious aspects of studying the origin of humans is that the most influential theories all originate in the middle east.  All three major religions (Judaism, Christianity and Islam) come from that area and postulate metaphysical concepts of ‘Creationism’,  In addition, the primary fossil discoveries supporting ‘Evolutionism’ come from the same area.  And a third major contributor concerning human origin comes from the ancient cuneiform text of Sumerian.  This third concept of human origins is vastly different then the premises of creationism and evolutionism.   The following map lends some visual perspective to the location of three of the most influential areas which shaped human civilization (Ethiopia, Egypt and Sumer).

A=Cairo Egypt, B=Axum Ethiopia and, Down Arrow= Sumer

The information offered in the Sumerian text regarding the origins of humans is without doubt stunning and for some ‘unbelievable’.  Keep in mind that all three conceptualizations of human origin (Creationism, Evolutionism and Sumerian Text) are ‘faith’ based.  What it comes down to is our personal beliefs regardless of the information presented. 

In general  “Homo sapiens arose in Africa and migrated out of the continent around 50,000 to 100,000 years ago, replacing populations of Homo erectus in Asia and Neanderthals in Europe.” (Reference)  The arrival of homo sapien was rather sudden and there simply is no verifiable evidence of lineage to other life forms. Creationism postulates divine creation of humans and the Sumerian text postulate human origin as a result of alien (extraterrestrial) manufacturing.  The concept of alien manufacturing stems largely from the translations of Sumerian text by Zecharia Sitchin.  

Trying to make an argument for any one theory of human origins as being the truth is simply pointless.  Your time would be better spent thinking about your next vacation adventure with your loved ones or watching a video.  Now with that said, it should be understood that one of these theories is quite nefarious. My own belief is that the inequity prevalent among the 6 billion inhabitants of planet earth stems directly from the original intention of Alien manufacturing, which was to produce slaves for the aliens .

Another twist on manufactured homo sapiens is presented by Michael Tellinger in his book “Slave Species of God’.  The ideas presented are similar to those presented by the translations of Secharia Sitchin but go a step further in refuting concepts such as evolution. 

In my own search for human origins I came across the following NASA satellite image STS052-153-212  of the Gulf of Aden (Ethiopia).  If you look closely you will see what appears to be the faces of two humans; a male on the left and a female, just slightly lower, on the right of the inlet at the top center of the photo.

Is it just a random event of water washing against a shoreline?  Or did the alien manufacturers leave mankind something to put in our family album?

One method for investigating external influence (alien)  is to look for discrepancies within the technological development of a civilization.  And while many are claimed there simply are not enough that have been actually verified.  There is one however that seems to fall into the class of verification (yes it is real it works and does not fit into the time line of the civilization).  The antikythera mechanism  is one bit of  antiquity evidence that demonstrate amazing leaps in human technological development.  It could be argued that an intelligent agency other than homo sapien was responsible for its development.  It is an extremely complex system of more than 30 miniaturized gears designed to measure astronomical positions.  The estimated date of construction is 150 and 100 BC.

The following model was copied from the original.

Does anyone really believe that the Ancient Greeks made this machine that is comparable to fine watches made in the 19th century ?  The Greek were very cool, but not that cool.

There is also a considerable amount of bogus artifacts such as the crystal skulls and the Dropa stones that are claimed to have been constructed by aliens.  It has been adequately demonstrated by scientific investigation that these artifacts are hoaxes. You have to be careful what you accept as a truth. 

The Nazca lines of Peru are certainly not bogus but it was demonstrated by “Researcher Joe Nickell of the University of Kentucky that the same lines could be produced  by using tools and technology available to the Nazca people. “  Reference

If the intent of the manufacturers of humans was mass production of slaves it would seem likely that some ancient human authorities would have been selected as slave keepers.  As an example the Pharos of Egypt were believed to be direct decedents of the gods.  Their control over the citizens of Egypt was absolute.  One interesting symbol of the Egyptians was the Eye Of Horus (Horus was a humanoid god with the head of a falcon).  That same symbol is also associated with Free Masonry and can also be found on US currency (eye in the pyramid). There has been a great deal of speculation (conspiracy theories) regarding the relationship of Free Masonry to ancient designs on a new world order but of course it is impossible to actually demonstrate. Understand that I am talking about awareness of the connection and subsequent communication between members about the goals of the group.

The authorities of religion and politics rise up out of a population as a consequence of personality factors and reactions based on chemistry of the individual (think of flight or fight).  The manufacturers needed only to wait until the ‘subjects’ produced a baseline civilization (cave dwellers with a leader etc.).  At that point individuals are selected,  without their awareness, to move the group forward in very specific directions.  It is easily controlled and in experimental psychology it is called ‘shaping’: successive approximations.  Is there a conspiracy among our current leaders of government and religion to push us towards a new world order?  My personal opinion is No.  What we see is the push in a specific direction without the awareness of the subjects that it originated from cave dwelling to present day.  Yes the goal of the manufacturers is achieved and no conspiracy among members of the subject group is necessary because they have been simply programed as a group.  The programming (life style and chemistry etc.) is what is passed on to the progeny and no direct contact is necessary with the experimenters.

Was the Sumerian text a mistake that somehow got by the manufacturers?  The manufacturers, assuming they exist, do not make mistakes.  At least not in the sense that we would comprehend.  They are so far advanced in terms of social and intellectual evolution that we could not begin to comprehend the nature of their existence. What we are most likely to do is call them Gods.
