Pour le réaliser, Carmen Boulter, professeure à l’Université de Calgary (Canada), a effectué, depuis 1977, de nombreux voyages en Égypte et 51 autres pays.
Ce long et ambitieux parcours sur les sentiers de la connaissance se propose d’aborder les questions suivantes :
- Qui étaient les Anciens et quel était leur savoir ?
- Les pyramides ne seraient-elles pas plus âgées que ne le donne à croire l’égyptologie classique ?
- Les Anciens ne possédaient-ils pas un savoir technologique plus avancé que celui d’aujourd’hui ?
- Pourquoi savons-nous si peu des anciens Égyptiens ?
- Sommes-nous réellement la civilisation la plus avancée que la Terre ait jamais portée ?
Ces questions débouchent sur les 5 épisodes du documentaire :
1 - The Band of Peace : “This episode raises questions about the purpose of the pyramids challenging the story traditional Egyptology tells. See rare footage of 6 distinct pyramid sites near the Great Pyramid with evidence of superior technology and sophisticated knowledge of science and the cosmos.”
2 - High Level Technology : “In this episode, evidence that the ancient Egptians used high level technology to construct pyramids and temples is shown. Scientists discuss the source of this power and its applications in the ancient world. Our science is just beginning to grasp what the ancients clearly understood long ago.”
3 - Sacred Cosmology : “Deciphering the meaning of strange symbols in Egyptian art gives insight into the ancient's knowledge of sacred cosmology. A new way of interpreting hieroglyphics is presented, indication that the ancients had sophisticated understanding of physics, biology, and celestial mechanics. A team goes on an expedition into the open desert in search of a remote site of extreme antiquity called Nabta Playa. Here, neolithic stone circles were found marking the motion of the same stars as were tracked in pharonic civilization. The possible connection is discussed.”
4 - The Empowered Human : “... proposes that the pyramid builders were living in a Golden Age, they had more refined senses, experienced higher levels of consciousness which gave them superior abilities than we have today. The sacred feminine was honored and existed in balance with the sacred masculine.”
5 - A New Chronology : “After examining the evidence presented in the series, it seems clear that the dates given by traditional Egyptology do not fit. Carefully considering cycles of time through the Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Iron Ages of Plato's Great Year, a new chronology is emerging that illumines ancient Egypt.”
Le documentaire donne la parole à 13 chercheurs et “experts”, dont Graham Hancock, Robert Bauval, Walter Cruttenden et John Anthony West.
Il évolue dans les sphères de l’égyptologie que nous pourrions qualifier d’ “alternative”, se démarquant très nettement d’une lecture plus “classique” et “traditionnelle” de l’histoire et des acquis de la civilisation égyptienne.
