Were the Gods of the Sumerian Kings List Real?
Our history books are continually being tested and challenged, but few discoveries have thrown a wrench into the officially accepted narrative of man’s origin like the DNA of Alfred Perry. Thanks to a chance submission of this one man’s blood to a genealogy laboratory, scientific theories of our species’ origin have been turned upside-down.
The story began in 2013, when a female relative of Alfred Perry, a South Carolina man, submitted a sample of his DNA to trace the family’s genetic roots. It turned out Perry’s DNA was not only rare, but it reset the entire timeline for human existence on this planet. Perry’s Y chromosome contained a signature unlike any other.
Y chromosomes represent the genetic factor that determines the male gender, and from Perry’s DNA, scientists were forced to admit that the common ancestor for his lineage was roaming the earth some 340,000 years ago. Previous to Perry’s DNA sample, scientists believed the origins of humankind traced to an original “Adam” somewhere around 140,000 years ago.
Perry’s DNA may support the theory that this planet has been home to earlier human civilizations that somehow became extinct—or nearly extinct—and that humanity may have been involved in a reboot, so to speak. This theory is supported by an ancient artifact known as The Sumerian Kings List—a written history of kingship in ancient Mesopotamia discovered in Sumerian cuneiforms.
The King’s List Is Rediscovered Â
The first fragment of this cuneiform tablet, dated around 4,000 years old, was discovered in the early 1900s by German-American scholar Hermann Hilprecht. Since Hilprecht first set eyes upon The Kings List, at least 18 other examples of documents have been found, and most seem to have been chiseled into stone between 2017-1794 B.C.
The land that was once called Sumer has been replaced by modern-day Iraq and was home to the people of southern Mesopotamia. It flourished between 4100-1750 BCE as a region of city-states, each with its own king.
The King’s List is a record of the history of kingship in Babylonia, from the beginning of human existence to the early centuries of the second millennium BCE
More importantly, all the rulers who allegedly held sovereignty over the whole of Babylonia are listed one after the other without interruption, except for one break—a time of political confusion and anarchy, during which it was unclear who the king was.
Some of the kings are said to have ruled for hundreds, or even thousands, of years. Many academics say they believe this segment of the King’s List is mostly mythological, but now we may have to question this appraisal.
The Human Species as a Slave Race Â
While mainstream archaeologists and historians generally agree that, even though our species began around 200,000 years ago, civilization is a more recent advent—beginning about 7,000 years ago. However, historian Anton Parks surmises that humanity was originally ruled by gods who may actually have been superior beings and placed humans in the role of laborers and slaves.
Humans were specially created to work, Parks says, and their overlords concealed from them a reality behind this world we’ve all accepted as the only plane of existence. People are still ruled by fear, according to Parks, and we are all somehow tied to an ancient oath of loyalty and subservience, forced upon us by beings known as the Anunnaki, who keep us all in physical and spiritual servitude.
The Anunnaki Live on as Blue Bloods Â
According to alternative theorists, such as Parks, the Anunnaki were deities of Sumerian lore who enslaved the human race for their own personal benefit. Parks says he believes the DNA of these gods of the old world has survived through the ages and that their descendants may still be engaged in manipulating humankind.
Linda Moulton Howe agrees and connects the gods of old to the blue bloods, or what today we might call royalty or the ruling elite. Howe’s conclusion is that this moniker comes from the copper-infused blood of a reptilian race (as opposed to the iron-infused blood of human beings that makes it red). The blue bloods, says Howe, can be traced to European royalty—right down to certain individuals who still wield power and seem to be above the law.
And now, the question is whether we, as the human race, can liberate ourselves from the chains of an ancient oath between godlike rulers and lowly human beings. Can our human race wake up to its original spiritual source, or will we continue to be enslaved and manipulated by these beings and their methodologies that exist beyond our awareness?

Decoding the Actual Age of the Great Sphinx
The Great Sphinx of Giza is widely believed to be around 4,500 years old, constructed during the reign of Pharaoh Khafre around 2500 BCE. But some researchers argue it could be far older, even 10,000 to 12,000 years old, based on geological signs of water erosion and other conflicting evidence. This ongoing debate challenges the accepted history of Egypt and the origins of human civilization.
Posing as a sentinel on the Giza plateau is the weathered and colossal figure that stands 66 feet above the desert sand, the Great Sphinx, a limestone sculpture with the head of a lion and the body of a human. While we now know much about the history and mythology of the ancient Egyptians, the mystery of the Sphinx has yet to be truly unraveled.
An ongoing battle between mainstream Egyptologists and a more recent wave of independent thinkers debates the age of the Sphinx by thousands of years. The latter insists the imposing limestone statue is much older than mainstream archaeologists, and Egyptologists claim it to be.
Mainstream archaeologists determined the Sphinx to have been built between 2558 and 2532 BCE. But in 1992, John Anthony West rocked the scientific community with his claim that the Sphinx was actually carved 10,000 years earlier before Egypt was a desert. West and others argued that academia had overlooked an important detail—the body of the sculpture bore distinct markings of water erosion.
After his assessment of the Sphinx’s age, West found fellow scientists who shared his observation about uncovering an entirely different history than was commonly accepted. West’s search led him to Robert Schoch, a geology professor at Boston University, willing to pursue an open-minded, out-of-the-box investigation into the origins not only of the Sphinx but the entire region, as well as its implications for the origin of the human species.
In Gaia’s original series, Ancient Civilizations, Schoch explains his first encounter with the figure in 1990, at which time he immediately noticed there was a disconnect between the statue’s academically accepted date of origin and the truth staring him in the face. Upon careful inspection, Schoch realized the Sphinx survived intensely wet weather conditions that stand in stark contrast to the now hyper-arid conditions of the Sahara Desert.
Schoch concluded that academia had determined the Sphinx’s age by overlooking signs of erosion due to heavy rainfall. The deluge that eroded the Sphinx was uncommon to the Egyptian plateau 5,000 years ago, but very common 10,000 to 12,000 years ago. For Schoch, this was an exciting find, but for mainstream science, it was met with derision and denial.
