Before The Pyramids by Christopher Knight
This book represents the most startling series of discoveries about ancient history. In their earlier work, "Civlization One", Knight and Butler presented evidence of a prehistoric measuring system that indicated the existence of a lost civilization. Now they have discovered that this measuring system, reflecting the positioning of the constellation Orion, was used to build the henges in ancient Britain long before the pyramids of Giza were constructed in a similar way. They also take the story into the modern era - discover how the United States revived these ancient patterns in the 1940's in certain government buildings, including the Pentagon.
Christopher Knight's first book, The Hieram Key (1996), co-authored with Robert Lomas, became an instant bestseller and has since been translated into 37 languages selling over a million copies worldwide. Alan Butler, an engineer fascinated by history, also became an expert in astrology and astronomy. He has researched ancient cultures, pagan beliefs and comparative religion and has published four successful books on the Knights Templar and the Grail legend. They both have a reputation for carefully researched and challenging theories on early history and are co-authors of Civilization One, Who Built the Moon? and Solomon's Power Brokers.
