REVEALED IF THEY COULD SPEAK?
I
In Heaven's Mirror, author Graham Hancock continues the quest begun in his international best-seller
Fingerprints of the Gods: to rediscover the hidden legacy of mankind and to reveal that "ancient" cultures were,
in fact, the heirs to a far older forgotten civilization and the inheritors of its archaic, mystical wisdom.
Working with photographer Santha Faiia, Hancock traces a network of sacred sites around the globe on a
spectacular voyage of discovery that takes us from the pyramids and temples of ancient Egypt to the enigmatic
statues of Easter Island, from the haunting ruins of pre-Columbian America to the splendors of Angkor Wat. It is
a journey through myth, magic, and astounding archaeological revelations that forces us to rethink the cultures
of our lost ancestors and the origins of civilization. The first fully illustrated book by Graham Hancock,
Heaven's Mirror is a stunning and illuminating tour of the spirituality of the ancients?a search for a secret
recorded in the very foundations of the holiest sites of antiquity.
GRAHAM HANCOCK has traveled around the world writing books and filming movies on archaeological
discoveries and their connection to our distant past. He is the author of the best-selling Fingerprints of the
Gods, The Sign and the Seal, and The Mars Mystery.
SANTHA FAIIA is an internationally published photographer specializing in ancient cultures and
monuments. She lives in Devon, England, with her husband, Graham Hancock.
