Prehistoric Civilizations: The Hidden History of Earth

Bashar presents a timeline of Earth's history that extends far beyond the conventional archaeological record. According to this view:

1. 500,000+ years ago: early humanoid species seeded by ET intervention.
2. 200,000 years ago: Homo sapiens emerges through genetic hybridization.
3. 100,000-50,000 years ago: first advanced cultures develop with ET guidance, primarily in regions now submerged.
4. 50,000-12,000 years ago: Lemurian civilization flourishes in the Pacific, teaching spirituality and water consciousness.
5. 35,000-12,000 years ago: Atlantean civilization rises, focusing on technology and crystal energy.
6. 12,000 years ago: Atlantean cataclysm reshapes global geography and resets human civilization.
7. 10,000 years ago-present: gradual rebuilding, with ET contact moving from overt to covert as humanity's frequency fluctuated.

Bashar states that evidence of these civilizations exists in megalithic structures, ancient maps, underwater ruins, and indigenous oral traditions, but mainstream science interprets them through a materialist lens that excludes the ET and consciousness components.
