Michael Tellinger

Michael Tellinger is a South African author, scientist, explorer, and founder of the global UBUNTU Liberation Movement. Known for his deep investigations into ancient civilizations, Tellinger connects the forgotten technologies of the past with a hopeful vision for the future. His work focuses on the stone circles and stone ruins scattered across Southern Africa and Zimbabwe, including the controversial site known as Adam’s Calendar, which he claims is the oldest man-made structure on Earth. Located near the Cradle of Humankind, these sites are part of Tellinger’s mission to decode the ancient ruins of Southern Africa and reveal their energetic and technological significance.

Drawing from the work of Zecharia Sitchin and Sumerian mythology, Tellinger explores the legacy of the Anunnaki, the lost technologies of the gold mines of Enki, and the role of sound and frequency in generating free energy.

As host of the Gaia series Hidden Origins, Tellinger examines the suppressed origins of humankind, the spiritual and energetic properties of ancient sites, and how these revelations offer a blueprint for human prosperity. Through his research, bestselling books, and activism, he invites us to reimagine human history and unlock a path to higher consciousness.
