It tells the story of belief, fraud, and the lengths that people will go to find meaning in the universe. The saga of Chariots of the Gods, its claims, and fallout are more than just the rise and fall of a weird piece of pseudoscience.
Had someone finally cracked the secret art, science, and religion all in one book?Ĭhariots of the Gods was cast as pseudoscience by many who read it, and as much as people got into reading about our god-like alien overlords they were just as into debunking the theories that von Däniken put forth in this book. Chariots of the Gods sent shockwaves through the extra-terrestrial- and UFO-obsessed underground, and it made a splash in mainstream culture as well. Have you ever been curious about Earth's artifacts? Why massive ancient temples across the globe are pyramidal? Or why cave drawings throughout the ancient world looks as if they show beings from the sky? In 1968, Von Däniken sought to explain that these aren't just coincidences, but a map to the stars.
