• Explores a wide variety of anomalous structures on Mars’s surface that display a high degree of geometric and pictographic design

• Examines sites such as the Elysium pyramid famously described by Carl Sagan and city complexes in the Nepenthes Mensae and Atlantis Chaos regions

• Argues that Mayan creation stories of a Star War and Sumerian myths of the Anunnaki provide ancient evidence for the existence of a Martian culture

Exploring evidence of a lost Martian civilization and its contact with life on Earth more than 800,000 years ago, investigator George Haas examines a wide variety of anomalous structures and geoglyphs on Mars’s surface that display a high degree of geometric and symbolic design. He takes a closer look at Carl Sagan’s famous pyramid of Elysium, including high-resolution images released after Sagan’s death. Investigating a pair of city complexes in the Nepenthes Mensae region of the Red Planet, the author shows how the settlements include geometric formations of a five-sided star and a hexagonal pyramid, along with geoglyphic formations representing a dove, a killer whale, and a bat. Examining the Libya Montes region, he reveals a keyhole-shaped formation identical in design to ancient tombs built in Japan. In the Atlantis Chaos region, he investigates the remains of an ancient city nestled along a dead lake, an urban-like array of gridded broken walls and shattered foundations. He then explores a detailed parrot-shape geoglyph in the large-impact crater known as Argyre Basin that four veterinarians found to possess 22 points of anatomical correctness with terrestrial parrots.

Providing an ancient Mesoamerican connection to the civilizations of Mars, Haas looks at a lesser-known Mayan creation story about a Star War that occurred between the ancient cities of Naranjo and Tikal with the occupants of the planet Mars 800,000 years ago. He reveals parallels between this story and ancient Sumerian stories of the Anunnaki occupation of the Earth and Mars as documented by Zecharia Sitchin. He also shows how there is a direct correlation between the ruins on Mars and the art and architecture of Mesoamerican cultures.

Revealing an ancient bond between the Earth and Mars, this book provides evidence of a long-disappeared Martian civilization that we are only now rediscovering.
