From the Ashes of Angels by Andrew Collins
Evidence of an advanced race existing in the near East during prehistoric times is revealed in this book, showing the evolution of civilization and religion throughout the old world. Originating in Egypt where they introduced the first ever forms of proto agriculture and left vast Cyclopean monuments and ruins, they migrated to the near East to escape the cataclysms that accompanied the end of the Ice Age. Among their greatest achievements was the creation of the Sphinx.
