Heavens Mirror: Quest for the Lost Civilization by Graham Hancock (1998) is a speculative archaeology and alternative history work exploring the possibility of a prehistoric advanced civilization that predates known ancient societies.
Hancock investigates megalithic sites and ancient monuments worldwide, suggesting they share a global alignment with astronomical events. He proposes that these alignments hint at a sophisticated lost civilization that existed before recorded history, potentially wiped out by a cataclysm around 12,000 years ago.
Hancock's work and his conclusions are controversial but nonetheless influential among a particular group of readers. Whatever your 'take' on Hancock, the sites he visits are undoubtedly important, and the photographs that Santha Faiia contributes to this book are undoubtedly of value.
