Hey, ancient aliens fans. If you're new to the podcast, be sure to check out our earlier episodes like The Whistleblowers, Mystery of the Standing Stones, or the top ten scariest encounters, where we dive into all the ancient aliens theories you could ever imagine. Now let us satisfy your curiosities and enjoy the show. A mysterious Egyptian pharaoh who altered the religion of an entire empire. Extraordinary engineers who live. in the sea and a cosmic visitor who worked for the United States military. Throughout history, humankind has received guidance from otherworldly beings. Now, ancient aliens examines ten of the most intriguing influencers in history. Teachers that just might have been visitors from another world. There is a doorway in the universe. Beyond it is the promise of truth.

truth. It demands we question everything we have ever been taught. The evidence is all around us. The future is right before our eyes. We are not alone. We have never been alone. Here's ancient astronaut theorist Giorgio Suclos. There is a major misconception that the ancient astronaut theory credits all the accomplishments of our ancestors entirely to exotrador. But this is not the case. What it suggests is that our ancestors had teachers. We can find countless examples throughout history of beings who came from the sky and imparted knowledge that led to the building of incredible structures

or changed the course of history. And one of the most compelling accounts describes no less than 200 otherworldly teachers teachers who had an impact of biblical proportions. At number 10 on our countdown of the top 10 alien influencers, the watchers. Kumran Israel, 1949. A team of archaeologists unearth hundreds of ancient scrolls that are more than 2,000 years old. Known as the Dead Sea Scrolls, these documents contain the oldest versions of the Bible ever discovered,

as well as a controversial text called The Book of Enoch, which tells the tale of a group of otherworldly influencers known as The Watchers. Here are authors William Henry and Kathleen McGowan. The Watchers are a group of these 200 angels. The Book of Enoch says they came from God's throne. They're the highest order of angels who were sent to earth to give humanity knowledge.

The Watchers are a group of angels. who are dispatched to watch humans and to help humans. Now, the watchers are very interesting because they are angels who interact with humans. The Book of Enoch is a firsthand account of the biblical patriarch's encounter with the watchers. Enoch was taken into the heavens aboard a fiery chariot

where he is given powerful, universal knowledge by angelic beings. They taught advanced knowledge of metal, working, of astronomy, but the most amazing thing is that the Watchers taught Enoch, The Secrets of Heaven. When Enoch returned to Earth, he shared this knowledge with his fellow humans. And as far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, the account of Enoch and the Watchers is a compelling example of an otherworldly influence on human development.

The Book of Enoch is very clear that the Watchers are celestial beings. We call them extraterrestrials. There's no question they didn't come from this planet. However they got here, the stories are clear that they were here to assist humanity in scaling the evolutionary ladder. Our next alien influencers are celestial beings who number not in the hundreds, but in the thousands, and they are believed to visit Japan to this very day. At number nine, the Kami.

Isay, Japan. In the center of this remote coastal city is a massive complex of 125 individual Shinto shrines. They are dedicated to the worship of otherworldly beings known as the Kami. The Kami are these celestial beings that are able to inhabit basically anything from a human being to an animal and even inanimate objects. So on the one hand there are these multidimensional beings, but then they also describe them as having come down from their celestial palace in the sky, which is called Takamagahara. This is Dominic Stavew, Associate Professor of Religious Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. There are over 8 million commies, according to the Shinto tradition, and each one of them

respond to certain offerings that they like in particular. They also will respond more negatively if they are disregarded or foreshunders. forgotten. So all of them have distinct individualities and certain likes and dislikes as well. According to ancient astronaut theorists, the kami are not only otherworldly beings, but have had a major influence on Japanese civilization, evidence of which can be found at the Isay Grand Shrine, which according to Japanese tradition, is the home of the supreme kami, the goddess Amaterasu. Amaterasu is the principal goddess and principal god of Shinto. All emperors in the history of Japan have claimed descent from Amaterasu as well.

All of them trace their lineage back to the kami, all the way down to Emperor Jimu, the first emperor to unify Japan. According to Japan's oldest texts, the Kojiki, Emperor Jibu united the islands of Japan in the 6th century BC. It is written that his victory was ensured not only by Amatarasu, but also by the kami that took the form of a large, three-legged crow. This so-called crow guided him on his journey and advised him in military matters to ensure his success. And when you look at ancient depictions of this crow, it is often depicted inside some

kind of an orb, this circular disc. So if you look at that, you have to ask, what a exactly where the ancient Japanese talking about here. Because this to me sounds more like he was being guided by some kind of a flying craft than an actual crow. Could Japan's first emperor, Jima, and the Imperial family today be direct descendants of extraterrestrial beings known as the Kami? And might the three-legged crow really have been an alien craft?

Ancient astronaut theorists say, yes. And as far as followers of Shinto are concerned, the Kami still influence earthly events to this very day. Many Japanese actually have Shinto shrines in their homes. So there's a daily interaction with the Kami, and they will do daily prayers or daily rituals devoted to the Kami, and this benefits them directly through long life and health and prosperity.

The Japanese archipelago is dotted, with over 81,000 shrines that are devoted to the Kami gods. The Japanese people will visit the shrines of the Kami with the belief that they are actually praying to an extraterrestrial being who can fulfill their blessings. On the opposite side of the world in the American Southwest, you will find similar legends of mysterious teachers who descended from the heavens.

The native Hopi people depict them as strange, humanoid figures with various names. animal features. Number eight on our countdown of alien influencers, the Kachinas. Black Mesa, Northeastern Arizona. The Native American Hopi tribe has considered these peaks sacred for more than 1,000 years. According to their mythology, this is where they were visited by sky beings known as the Kachina. Here's former Navajo Nation Ranger, Jonathan Dover. The Kachinas in Hopi tradition are related to the star people. All Native American tribes have these traditional oral histories that people came from the stars to visit them.

It's universal all across the United States that these gods, as we call them today, came to Earth and visited to provide knowledge. The translation for the word Kachina is very simple. It means teacher. The Hopi referred to the kachinas arriving in these flying shields, orange glowing shields after sometimes referred to. They would touch down on Earth, spend time with human beings, teach them, give them knowledge, and then they would use the same quote-unquote shields to fly back into the sky.

And that's interesting that the Hopi are very clear. in relaying that the kachinas were not part of the ethereal realm, but that they happen to be part of our physical world. According to Hopi mythology, the kachinas arrived to share knowledge about agriculture, astronomy, and medicine. To this day, the Hopi celebrate the influence of the kachina with rituals to connect them with the sky beings. Central to these are sacred objects that are believed to be likenesses of the kachinas. This is Zuni tribal elder, Clifford Mahouti.

The kachina is a representation of the actual gods that used to come into the villages aeons ago. Some of them are warriors. Most of them are priesthood-type kachinas, and they come from different parts of the universe. The hopi are very clear in suggesting that the kachinas were celestial beings that imparted knowledge. And if you compare that to the ancient astronaut theory, that's exactly what it talks about,

that the knowledge was imparted by beings who visited us. All. Pay off your home, travel for life, drive a Ferrari.

Not every alien influencer on our list descended from the heavens. Sometimes they emerged from the sea, like a group of mysterious beings who taught the ancient Greeks metallurgy and were described as humanoid entities with fifted. like features. At number seven on our countdown of the top ten alien influencers, the Telkenese. The Aegean Sea. On the eastern edge of the Greek archipelago lies the picturesque island of Rhodes. Today it is home to more than 115,000 people. But according to Greek mythology, it was once inhabited by a mysterious group of advanced beings known as the Tel-Taliener.

Telkines. Here's Tote Thompson, professor of anthropology at University of Southern California, and Greek historian Richard Rader, Ph.D. The Telchians are an interesting aspect of this early Greek mythology. They are, in some cases, described as having dogheads and fish webbed hands. The Telkines were known for that reason as fish people. They had their special semi-divine powers, technologically advanced beings who are greater than humans. They were bigger, they're stronger, they're smarter. It's very interesting that the Greeks were very, very clear

in describing what they looked like. The Telkenes are an amphibious. During a day, they would walk on land, but at night they would go into the water and then reemerge the following day. According to legend, the Telkenes were highly skilled metallurgists. They were said to have created Poseidon's magical trident and to have cast the first bronze statues of the gods of Olympus. The Telethings were known for their ability in metal smithing, in various magical or highly technological developments.

They came up with new stuff all the time. So they were represented as a somewhat advanced race, if you will. According to mythology, the Telkines shared the secrets of the world. their advanced Smithcraft with the ancient Greeks. The Telkines are the ones who taught the local population about metallurgy, how to make swords and how to forge them in fire and things like that. You have to remember that at some point these things were not invented. So all of a sudden these new things are there and when you look at the ancient accounts, how

or why our ancestors came up with this, our ancestors are telling us, and then we were taught by, in this case, at Telkenes, how to make iron, how to make metal. The reason why this ties into the ancient astronaut theory is because the entire Greek pantheon of gods is based on an extraterrestrial idea, that the ancient gods of Greece were visiting extraterrestrial.

extraterrestrials. While the idea that the Greeks could have been influenced by amphidious metalsmiths may sound like science fiction, there is historical evidence that a group called the Telkines truly did exist. We do actually have evidence of these beings. They were actual ancient Greeks who had specific tasks and trades like metallurdy, like smithing and so on. And so Telkines could in fact not just be these mythological beings, but

actual people. If that is the case, then that opens up the question of whether or not extraterrestrials lipped in the sea. This is a common theme that we find around the world of great civilizer gods that emerge from the sea. And from time to time, they will come to the surface as influencers of humankind or as instruments of advancement for humanity. Curiously, in West Africa, there are also accounts of mysterious teachers who had a

fish-like appearance. And according to the Dogon tribe, these alien influencers didn't come out of the sea, but traveled to Earth from an invisible star. At number six on our countdown, the Nomal. Molly, Africa, 1931. French anthropologist Marcel Greal treks through the forbidding desert in search of the mysterious Dogan tribe. When he finds them, he becomes fascinated by their culture and traditions, including the tale of mysterious teachers called the Nomo. According to Dogen mythology, the NOMO came from the sky,

had a fish-like appearance, and aided in the development of humankind. Here's Jason Martel, author of Knowledge Apocalypse. They describe these nomos as being very like mermaid or merman-like, but bequeathing lots of knowledge of astronomy, math and science to this ancient race. The Dogon actually said, well, this was our creator god, Namo, who descended from the sky in a loud whirlwind

of a storm of thunder, smoke, and lightning. And their knowledge of everything was given to them by that being. According to the Dogen, the Nomo not only taught them about agriculture, math, and medicine, but shared advanced astronomical information. This is author David Childress. The Dogan priest said that the NOMO were coming from the star system of Syria, but they said that their star

was a different, smaller star in Syria, and that the NOMO planet went around this secondary star. Well, the French anthropologists were amazed at that and were confused as well, because that companion star to Sirius had not really been officially discovered at that time. How is it possible that they had this knowledge unless that knowledge was given to them by beings who came from that star system? That you have to ask, did the nomo come from the stars?

Were they extraterrestrial beings that came to Earth as great teachers, as influencers of human culture? One place on Earth that is truly fascinating to ancient estimate theorists is the country of Australia, because for thousands of years, the Aboriginal people have been passing down stories of their celestial ancestors. And one of the most compelling tales involves a mysterious teacher who descended from the heavens in a flying canoe. Number five on our countdown of the top ten alien influencers, a visitor known as Bayame.

Australia. The Aboriginal people have lived here for more than 60,000 years, making them the most ancient, continuous culture in the world. For tens of thousands of years, they have preserved the sacred knowledge of their earliest ancestors, passed down through art and detailed oral histories. And there is one figure who is said to have had a greater influence on the Aboriginal traditions than any other. A mysterious teacher named Bayami.

Here's Australian elder, Kevin Gavi Duncan. Bayami is our God creator who came from the morning star. And Bayami arrived here to Mother Earth. A long time ago, we say our ways of life that are passed down from generation after generation that have been given to us by Bayami. Biami is a deity that helped the local population, gave knowledge, and showed people in various scientific disciplines. Essentially, it was a teacher. In 2016, ancient astronaut theorist Georgio Succolos traveled to the Brisbane Water National Park in Australia.

There he met with Aboriginal elder Kevin Gavi Duncan and was eager to learn more about Biami. and the story of his otherworldly origins. So what are we looking at here? So this image is an actual image of Bayami. That's what our people believe. Okay. This site is considered around 8,000 to 10,000 years old. Bayami came from a place that we call the morning star within the Mirabooka.

Mirror means stars and Booker means river. It is the Milky Way that flows across the night sky. You're kidding, okay. And so he is one of those sky heroes that has descended from the Milky Way? Yes, he's a sky hero. And this is the canoe. This was his vessel that he sail through the Milky Way.

When he landed, they said the fire came from his feet and it burnt the top of the mountain and all around it every time he landed. People interpret that as a spaceship. of some kind, it's coming and going. This is the way we simply interpret Bayami spaceship. Right, but it's because the vocabulary didn't exist at the time. Yes.

According to the oral traditions, when Biami arrived, he created the Earth for humans, and then showed them how to survive, teachings that continue to influence Aboriginal society. We believe as Aboriginal people that Bayami was Bayami walked across the earth and basically the land was prepared for us before life was started here. We say Bayami teach us how we should equally have this balance of life between us as human beings and the earth. The Aboriginals have all kinds of ancient stories and of sky gods who manipulated the continent,

created the rivers and mountains and then they left. These are probably some of the oldest stories of extraterrestrial intervention that we have on planet Earth. Our people had much ancient knowledge of the star system and the constellation of the stars, the wisdom and knowledge that have been given to us by Bayami. It said that Bayami taught the ancient Aboriginal people astronomy, medicine and various skills to survive off the land, including how to make Australia's

most iconic hunting tool. Bayami had given us the spirit of technology. We invented the boomerang, which is aerodynamics. It's something that's influenced the technology of today, like airplanes and helicopters and other things. And we say that knowledge of how to create these things was given by Bayami. Was Biami an otherworldly visitor who bequeathed knowledge that continues to influence Aboriginal people to this day? For elders like Gary Simon Jagamara and many who share the traditional beliefs of their ancestors, the answer is a resounding guess. Here's Aboriginal elder Gary Simon Jagamara. We all have stories of people in crafts coming from the stars, going to the stars, and so on.

In order to keep them, pass them down to next generation, we carved them, we painted them, we sang them, we danced them in stories to guarantee that they passed down. So when the visitors left, we didn't forget about them, and we never forget about the things that they passed down to us, and the knowledge they passed down. Without a doubt, one of my favorite places to investigate is Egypt. Its mythology is a treasure trove of evidence for the ancient astronaut theory, including accounts of UFOs, advanced technology, and the story of a mysterious man who received his knowledge from the stars.

Number four on our list of the top ten alien influencers Imhotep. Sakara, Egypt, located just 15 miles south of the Giza Plateau, stands what mainstream archaeologists suggest is the oldest pyramid in Egypt. the steppe pyramid of King Josar. Constructed in the 27th century BC, this monument was designed by a mysterious figure named Emotep. Here's Egyptologist, Rami Romani, and Jonathan Young, founding curator of the Joseph Campbell Archives.

Im Hatep was a commoner, like became the high engineer, the main architect, and he came out of nowhere. We don't know his history. We know that he came into power, ascended the ranks, and became the closest man to the king. And he came up with the idea of a pyramid. It was a step pyramid, and if you look at it, it's sometimes described as stairway to the gods, these enormous steps up into the sky. It was the first time a stone ceiling was suspended.

It is an amazing breakthrough, a pioneering architectural. moment and the beginning of the making of pyramids in Egypt. Imhotep designed the Josar pyramid to be the most impressive monument in Egypt. The six-tier four-sided structure originally stood 205 feet tall, with a base measuring 358 feet by 397 feet. It was an engineering achievement so extraordinary that it enshrined Imhotep in the annals of Egyptian history. Remarkably, the iconic structure was not Emotep's sole accomplishment. Imhotep was the high priest, he also was a high physician. And the most ancient medical document ever found in the world was a papyrus written by Imhotep

that explains how to treat trauma. But of greater interest to ancient astronaut theorists is what influenced Emotep's incredible accomplishments. You go look back at Imhadab and how he gained that knowledge and what's written is puzzling because it says Imhatab received the book that fell from the sky. Did Imhotep really gain his knowledge from an otherworldly source? Or is it possible, as ancient astronaut theorists suggest, that there is a more profound explanation? There are great mysteries about who Imhotep was, where he came from.

This is interesting because later on, Imhotep is deified. And what's fascinating is the depictions of him. He looks like he's got this oversized head. He's got strange-looking hands. He almost looks non-human. What we appear to be dealing with here is possibly an extraterrestrial being who took on a human existence. The story of Imhotep is fascinating.

he wasn't the only alien influencer in ancient Egypt. One of the most intriguing was a controversial pharaoh who worshipped a mysterious disc-shaped deity and was depicted with an elongated skull. At number three, Akhenaten. Of the many pharaohs of ancient Egypt, none are more mysterious and controversial than Akhenatenaten. He ruled from 1353 BC until his death 17 years later. His reign was dominated by controversy when he abandoned the pantheon of old Egyptian gods and instead demanded that its subjects worship a single deity. The sun god, Aten.

Aconaten was the most unique king in all of ancient Egypt. At a time where Egypt was most prosperous, he decided, decided to change everything, to change Egypt's most strongest beliefs, to change religion. Akanaten announces there will be one God. They will be a monotheistic people. Aten, the sun god, would be the one divinity they all worshipped. The image is the sun disk. It shook the empire in really terrible ways. Unlike the pantheon of anthropomorphic gods that had been worshipped for centuries,

the god Aten was simply represented by a disc-shaped object. The Egyptian aristocracy was so confused and angered by Akanaten's installation of this abstract deity that after his death, they went to extreme lengths to obliterate his legacy. The ancient Egyptians did not want us to know anything about Achnotin. And you can only wonder was it in fact to protect an even darker secret. What secret could have inspired Akanaten to make such drastic changes during a time of tremendous prosperity? Ancient astronaut theorists suggest there may have been an otherworldly influence. And as evidence point not only to the disk-shaped God he worshipped, but also the way he and his wife, Nefertiti, were depicted by artists of the time.

He and Nefertiti and their children all had elongated heads, as we see all around the world, and is often associated with extraterrestrials. Lachnoughton has been suggested as possibly being an extraterrestrial or part extraterrestrial. One has to wonder if Akhenaten may have been some type of an extraterrestrial hybrid. And perhaps that sun-disk Attaxia. that Akinaten prayed to wasn't a sun in the sky at all, but it could have been an extraterrestrial that's instructed Akanaten.

Not every account of otherworldly guidance occurred in the distant past. In fact, one alien influencer allegedly crash-landed on Earth in the 1950s and then shared the secrets of his technology with members of the U.S. military. Number two on our countenance, of the top 10 alien influencers, Jayrod.

Groom Lake, Nevada. Hidden within a ring of mountains, this dry lake bed is the location of Area 51, the nation's most infamous military installation. For decades, rumors have swirled that this top secret facility is hiding not only extraterrestrial technology, but a living alien known as J-Rod. Here is Preston Dennett, author of Inside UFO, True Accounts of Contact with Extraterrestrial. J. Rod is an alien who allegedly worked at Area 51 over a period of years to help reverse engineer extraterrestrial technology. A number of government whistleblowers have come forward with the story that J. Rod was first discovered inside the cockpit of a downed alien craft.

According to their accounts, on May 21, 1953, government officials secretly gathered a team of scientists to investigate the crash of an unidentified flying object on the outskirts of Kingman, Arizona. Here's military aerospace historian Mike Schrat. There were 14 engineers that boarded a bus, and they took a long three-and-a-half-hour ride from Phoenix to Kingman. When they got there, it was nighttime. There were M-piece on all corners of the craft. It's about a 40-foot diamond or dish-shaped craft that was perfectly intact. There wasn't a scratch on it. There were four beings associated with this craft, and they shipped it to Groom Lake.

This is Richard Dolan, historian, an author of UFOs and the National Security State. Groom Lake is the Area 51 region in Nevada. When Area 51 was just bare bones, they took the craft and the aliens out to that location in the middle of the Nevada Desert because it was so remote. And around that, they built Area 51. This is where the story of J. Rod originates. J. Rod survived and worked directly with our own government. What's very interesting here is here we have an extraterrestrial in government custody. and he could certainly have all kinds of information to reveal.

And what they are apparently talking about is technology and the reverse engineering of extraterrestrial technology. One man who claimed to have worked with J. Rod is Captain Bill U.House, a former Air Force test pilot who was assigned to Area 51 in the mid-1960s. We had a long period of introduction into needing, you know, and I called him J. Rod. That's the name that the linguist gave him.

And he'd talk, he would talk, but he'd sound just like if you spoke, he'd sound like you. You know, he's like one of the, you know, a parrot, but he'd try and answer your question, you know. Basically, it was only engineering advice or science advice. Bill U-Hawes said he met this being at least ten times over a period of years, and he learned it was J. Rod's mission to help reverse engineer technology that was apparently from the 1953 Kingman UFO crash. While the sensational account of Captain Bill U.house strikes many as outlandish, shortly after he came forward, a microbiologist named Dan Burrish confirmed the claim.

There's another whistleblower by the name of Dan Burrish, and Dan Burrish said that he was hired as a microbiologist to basically care for J. Rod, ensuring that he remained healthy, and this went on for years and years and years. According to Dan Burrish and Bill U-house, J-Rod was housed in a special underground chamber at Area 51. And J-Rod was not the only extraterrestrial believed to be working with the United States government. Here's Open Minds editor, Alejandro Rojas.

There's a lot of stories that we worked with the aliens at Area 51, and that they worked at the White House and the Pentagon as advisors, helping us to better our world, and they have been sharing information for us to enhance our technology. This idea that actual physical extraterrestrials could potentially be influencing the course of the world is a possibility. I am sure there are envoys out there that do the same thing, not just on a planet, but in entire planetary systems.

We've reached the end of our countdown of the top ten ten. alien influencers, and this last one has led to a seismic shift in beliefs and attitudes towards the possibility that extraterrestials are visiting Earth. At number one on our countdown, Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. December 16, 2017. The New York Times releases three videos that were recorded by U.S. fighter jets. The footage, which appears to show encounters between U.S. Navy aircraft and unidentified flying objects, was brought to them by government whistleblower Luis Elizondo.

Luis Elizondo was a former intelligence officer in the Department of Defense. From everything that we can see, he had a very stellar career, a very fine career. And in 2007, he was selected to run the A-TIP program. So that's the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, the UFO Program. The release of the videos not only sparked a wave of interest about UFOs across the country, but forced lawmakers on Capitol Hill to take notice. This was a real turning point in the United States because the New York Times basically said that, yeah, there are UFOs out there, the government's looking at them.

It's actually an important investigation. This really shows that UFOs and the UFOs and the government's looking at them. UFOs and the study of UFOs and the investigation has entered the mainstream. The influence of the videos released by Elizondo emboldened other whistleblowers to come forward with evidence of UFOs, including Navy pilot David Fravor and former Area 51 engineer Bob Lazare. And in June 2023, former intelligence officer David Grush testified before Congress about a covert military program that has craft of non-human origin. I was informed in the course of my official duties

of a multi-decade UAP crash retrieval and reverse engineering program. The impact of the testimony of these whistleblowers has brought the idea of extraterrestrials visiting Earth into mainstream conversation. But as far as ancient astronaut theorists are concerned, this is no accident. They suggest that the dramatic,

influence the whistleblowers have had on the public is part of a plan by extraterrestrials. What's really fascinating is that in the 1960s Eric von Dennenken proposed in chariots of the gods that aliens would show up when Earth civilization would reach a certain level of technology and with everything that's going on right now this may be the time when we will make contact. This is Eric von Danikin, author of Chariots of the Gods. Some thousands of years ago, the extraterrestra promised to return in a faraway future. And we have good reasons to believe that now they are back. More and more of these proven

UFO cases appear to the public before it was never shown to the public. We know we are not alone. We are under observation. And it must must be extraterrestrients because they show a technology which we do not have. For the first time in history, members of Congress, senators, and the U.S. military are openly talking about the possibility of an extraterrestrial presence on Earth. All of a sudden, since 2017, these stories have become front-page news. And it clearly shows that there was a type of a paradigm shift. that's happened over the past 25 years.

And for someone like me, it's incredible. The idea that extraterrestrials are deliberately revealing themselves to us is truly thrilling. But what's clear to ancient astronaut theorists is that we've had contact with alien influencers for thousands of years, from heavenly beings described in the Bible to strange amphibious creatures,

and even mysterious visitors seen in our skies today. Perhaps the next alien influencer will finally reveal the truth about humankind's extraterrestrial past.
