Title: Myths and astronomy
Review: I first learned about this book in Graham Hancock's Fingerprints of the Gods. De Santillana has a way with words but the thread comes through that all myths worldwide speak of the same event: the Precession of the equinoxes. Myth is like the language of dreams: though apparently nonsensical, it tells of something beyond the meaning of its words or images. But still, where does the knowledge of the precession of the equinoxes come from? De Santillana does not delve into this mystery, leaving it perhaps to Hancock and Sitchin to solve.
Is the review positive or negative?
