The Eyes of the Sphinx: The Newest Evidence of Extraterrestial Contact in Ancient Egypt

Front Cover
Penguin Publishing Group, Mar 1, 1996 - Body, Mind & Spirit - 304 pages
The world-famous bestseller Chariots of the Gods introduced the theory that ancient Earth had established contact with aliens. Now, Erich von Däniken’s The Eyes of the Sphinx reveals startling evidence that could prove it.
 
Erich von Däniken's theory of alien contact with the ancient world is so incredible, yet so logical and convincing, that it has become part of a wide-ranging debate that continues to this day. His claims that an alien race helped create the pyramids of Egypt were based upon the ruins themselves. And it is these ruins that now provide researchers with a never-ending source of clues, compelling discoveries, revelations, and evidence that Earth was indeed colonized by an alien race.
