Sorcerers of Stone: Architects of the Three Ages

- Explains the three distinct architectural styles found at the majority of sacred sites, representing three ancient world ages

- Examines evidence of the two oldest architectural ages at sites in the Sacred Valley of Peru in depth, connecting them to other sites around the world

- Explores the sophisticated science behind the construction of these stone sites, including modern research on acoustic levitation and ancient use of geopolymers

All around the world are mysterious ancient monoliths with strange features--perfectly carved terraces, massive steps, basins, and abstract forms with underground grottos and cave systems. Most archaeologists have a hard time explaining them and attribute their construction to the earliest known cultures in the area. However, these vestiges are found throughout Asia, Asia Minor, Indonesia, Europe, and especially in South America, so they transcend regional boundaries and cultures and point toward a long-forgotten ancient worldwide civilization.

Examining sacred sites in Peru and their counterparts around the world, researcher and journalist Camille M. Sauv?shows how they share specific architectural characteristics and reveal evidence of a very ancient culture that once existed worldwide. She examines the work of Peruvian researcher Alfredo Gamarra, who first described in detail the three distinct building styles and construction methods of these sites and how they represent three ancient world ages. She explains how Hanan Pacha (Heaven Above) constructions, the oldest style, are universally revered as sacred by the civilizations that came after them. Weaving together a tapestry of what early humanity looked like, the author examines the writings of famous clairvoyants like Rudolf Steiner, Madame Blavatsky, and Edgar Cayce who recorded the works of early man through the Akashic records. She also looks at myths and legends that offer insights into the three forgotten ages, including connections to Lemuria and Atlantis.

Besides the more esoteric questions about who could have built these wonders, the author also examines the unique properties of the monoliths themselves and the sophisticated science behind the construction of these stone sites. She shows how they seem to be placed on earth power spots and how most of the rocks have significant piezoelectric properties from high quartz and silica content. She also examines evidence of the use of vitrification and what seems like the ability to shape hard metamorphosed stone without conventional tools.

Revealing that many sacred sites are much older than previously thought, Camille Sauv?shows that Peru may hold the secret to remembering our forgotten prehistory.
