The seal image [above] depicts the legend of the "Great Flood" which consumed mankind. Many Sumerian legends are strikingly similar to Genesis. Like Genesis, the Sumerian legend, Atrahasis, tells the story of the creation of modern humans -- not by a loving God -- but by beings from another planet who needed "slave workers" to help them mine gold on their extra-planetary expedition!

This story, the Atrahasis, comes from an early Babylonian version of about 1700 BC, but it certainly dates back to Sumerian times. It combines familiar Sumerian motifs of the creation of mankind and the subsequent flood -- just like Genesis.
The story starts out with the "gods" -- beings from a planet called Nibiru -- digging ditches and mining for gold as part of an expeditionary team. Modern humans (homo sapiens) did not exist yet; only primitive hominids lived on Earth. There were two groups of "gods", the worker class and the ruling class (i.e. officers). The worker gods had built the infrastructure as well as toiled in the gold mines and, after thousands of years, the work was apparently too much for them.
The gods had to dig out the canals
Had to clear channels,
the lifelines of the land,
The gods dug out the Tigris river bed
And then they dug out the Euphrates. --(Dalley 9, Atrahasis)
After 3,600 years of this work, the gods finally begin to complain. They decide to go on strike, burning their tools and surrounding the chief god Enlil's "dwelling" (his temple). Enlil's vizier, Nusku, gets Enlil out of bed and alerts him to the angry mob outside. Enlil is scared. (His face is described as being "sallow as a tamarisk.") The vizier Nusku advises Enlil to summon the other great gods, especially Anu (sky-god) and Enki (the clever god of the fresh waters). Anu advises Enlil to ascertain who is the ringleader of the rebellion. They send Nusku out to ask the mob of gods who is their leader. The mob answers, "Every single one of us gods has declared war!" (Dalley 12, Atrahasis).
Since the upper-class gods now see that the work of the lower-class gods "was too hard," they decide to sacrifice one of the rebels for the good of all. They will take one god, kill him, and make mankind by mixing the god's flesh and blood with clay:
Belit-ili the womb-goddess is present,
Let the womb-goddess create offspring,
And let man bear the load of the gods! (Dalley 14-15, Atrahasis)
After Enki instructs them on purification rituals for the first, seventh and fifteenth of every month, the gods slaughter Geshtu-e, "a god who had intelligence" (his name means "ear" or "wisdom") and form mankind from his blood and some clay. After the birth goddess mixes the clay, all the gods troop by and spit on it. Then Enki and the womb-goddess take the clay into "the room of fate," where The womb-goddesses were assembled.
He [Enki] trod the clay in her presence;
She kept reciting an incantation,
For Enki, staying in her presence, made her recite it.
When she had finished her incantation,
She pinched off fourteen pieces of clay,
And set seven pieces on the right,
Seven on the left.
Between them she put down a mud brick. (Dalley 16, Atrahasis)
The creation of man seems to be described as a type of cloning and what we would today consider in vitro fertilization.
The result was a hybrid or "evolved human" with enhanced intellect who could perform the physical duties of the worker gods and also take care of the needs of all the gods.
We are told, in other texts, that the expedition came for gold and that great quantities were mined and shipped off the planet. The community in South Africa was called "Abzu" and was the prime location of the mining operation.
Since these events appear to coincide with the dates of "Mitochondrial Eve" (i.e. 150,000 to 250,000 BP) and appear to be located in the richest gold mining region on the planet (Abzu), some researchers are thinking that the Sumerian legends may, in fact, be based on historical events.
According to the same texts, once the mining expedition ended it was decided that the human population should be allowed to perish in a flood which was predicted by the atronomer of the "gods." Apparently, the cyclical passage of the home planet of the gods, Nibiru, was going to bring it close enough to the orbit of Earth that its gravity would cause the oceans to rise and flood the land, putting an end to the hybrid species -- homo sapiens.
According to the story, one of the "gods" had sympathy for a particular human, Zuisudra, and warned him to construct a boat to ride out the flood. This eventually became the basis for the story of Noah in the book of Genesis.
Did this really happen? The only other explanation is to imagine that the Sumerian legends, acknowledging life on other planets and human cloning, were extraordinary science-fiction. This in itself would be amazing. But we now have evidence that the mining city, Abzu, is real and that it existed in the same era as the sudden evolution of hominids to homo sapiens.
Just think about this for a while.

I have heard little bits and pieces of this over time. This is the first time I've seen it all in one place. But I have to say, I find it very interesting. I either heard on the radio or read it that there is a scientist who has identified alien DNA in our ancestry. It has always seems as if there was some missing link in our ancestry. Could we be partly alien? I don't know for sure, but I find it pretty weird to think that it coincides with the time that we suddenly leaped forward. Hmm, sort of makes you wonder, doesn't it?

That has always amazed me as well. You have all of these skeletons and partials from what we are told are our ancestors. But yet you get one here and one there... they really don't make a real certifiable connection...
There has to be something - intelligent design, genetic engineering, etc - that caused that leap...

That's what I'm saying. Does anyone here think it's possible that "cavemen" built this city 200,000 years ago, without a little help? It's sort of funny, for I can imagine the scenario in my head. There's all these ape people running around. The aliens come and find mining for gold is pretty tough work. So they grab a couple ape people and see if their DNA is compatible with alien DNA. They have a match! So they implant a couple with the DNA and raise their own slaves. But one thing they didn't plan on, was the animalistic side to the new creatures. They leave for a few years to bring the gold home. On returning to earth, they find the "people" they've created have become war-like and violent. They kill each other and sacrifice others to the gods. Coming down to earth is now a hassle, for each time they do, they have to win over the alien/apes. So they go away, only returning to check up on their science project from time to time. Now they watch from afar, thinking, wow! look at these crazy suckers we created!
But if this is true it actually explains something I've never been able to understand. How can we evolve to the point where we can make cities, vehicles that fly through the air and under the seas, and yet, be so violent? Well, if we were just animals that were never meant to evolve and become sentient, well I guess that explains it doesn't it. We've got big alien brains with animal instincts and I guess in some cases, that doesn't mix!
I hope maybe someday we can find out the truth. And if we are alien children/science experiments, I hope we can come to terms with it, and maybe meet our "parents" someday!

Reminds me of Stargate. I loved that movie.
You know, what you are saying does make ALOT of sense. I can see that premise working.
Can you imagine the religious fall-out if it came to light that if that were true? I don't know that it would necessarily affect how I feel about religion. I still believe in God regardless. But some groups would just be psychotic!
You know what I just thought of though? I think that the more spiritual and/or religious a person is, the less violent they tend to be (as a general rule). I think that having that spiritual center may allow us to be more in tune with that "alien" part of ourselves. Rather fighting the animalistic side of ourselves....
The alien hybrid creation does fit with some other Creation stories.

The way I see it, our spiritual side probably came from the aliens. I look at it this way, the animals don't worship anything, they just do what they do. But sentient beings look for more, they seek spiritual paths and look toward a higher power. So to me, if we were just apes, and you gave us some sentient DNA, wouldn't that bring us to a place where spirituality is important to us? But then again, it could be learned behavior that the aliens taught us.
My team recently merged with Starborn Support, which is an alien abductee support group. They have a huge database of information, and more knowledge on the paranormal than you can iamgine. It also allows me to share their researcher, who is now my Historical Researcher for my team. But what one of the founders, and my good friend, Audrey told me is that aliens are trying to give us messages. That's why they abduct people. Of course they want to learn more about us and study us, but I guess in a way, we are their children, and they want to help us learn. Only thing, most of us, well, we just don't get the message. It's pretty fascinating to talk about these things with her. You just have to be open minded, for she knows more about the aliens than I ever dreamed possible! Hugs!
