About the author
Graham Bruce Hancock (born 2 August 1950) is a British author known for promoting pseudoscientific explanations of ancient civilizations and hypothetical lost lands. Hancock argues that an advanced society with spiritual technology thrived during the last Ice Age until comet impacts triggered the Younger Dryas about 12,900 years ago. He maintains that survivors of the disaster shared their knowledge with hunter-gatherer communities in regions such as ancient Egypt, Sumer, and Mesoamerica, sparking the earliest known civilizations. Born in Edinburgh, Hancock studied sociology at Durham University before joining British newspapers and magazines as a journalist. His first three books examined international development, including Lords of Poverty (1989), a well-received critique of corruption in the aid system. Beginning with The Sign and the Seal in 1992, he shifted to speculative accounts of human prehistory and ancient civilizations, publishing a dozen books that include Fingerprints of the Gods and Magicians of the Gods.
