In Our Occulted History, Jim Mars steps once again onto the cutting edge of research into conspiracies and hidden history. Mars produces a compendium of startling and mind-blowing information indicating that the earth once hosted prehistoric civilizations using technologies that very well may have surpassed our own-and that such societies may well have originated with non-humans. The evidence for such a concept is both widespread and compelling even though it flies in the face of conventional history and beliefs. But then, at one time so did the concept that the earth was round and revolved around the sun. If numerous ancient texts and tablets are to be taken at face value, they tell of visitors from the stars colonizing the Earth. If this is so, it raises the question: Did they all leave at some time or are such visitors still among us? From the flying vimanas of the Hindu Vedic literature and the flying shields reported by the Romans to the mysterious airships of the 1800s and the UFOs of today, the records seems clear that someone other than us is still present on this planet. So the question becomes: Are they simply observers or are they trying to control the Earth? Throughout the book, Mars will address this issue by gently taking from well-grounded science and authentic archeological finds to eyebrow-raising but serious speculation concerning the possibility of extraterrestrial life on Earth operating both in the distant past and today.
