[Archaeo - Histories @archeohistories]

The Anunnaki, ancient deities of Sumerian mythology, have become a focal point for those who explore the esoteric and ancient astronaut theories. Their story is rich with layers of mythology, speculation, and archeological intrigue. In Sumerian lore, these gods were said to be mighty rulers of Earth, overseeing the development of human civilization from their celestial thrones. They were credited not only with the creation of humanity but also with its rise and fall across millennia. These ancient gods of Mesopotamia had wings, wore horned caps, and possessed the ability to control all of humanity. Sumerians revered the Anunnaki as heavenly beings who shaped the destiny of their society.

But were they more than deities? Some theorists claim that the Anunnaki were aliens from another planet. Even more shocking, they use ancient Sumerian texts to back up this wild idea. Here’s what we know.

Sumerians lived in Mesopotamia, present-day Iraq and Iran; between Tigris and Euphrates rivers from about 4500-1750 BC. Despite being an ancient civilization, their reign was marked by a number of impressive technological advancements. For example, the Sumerians invented the plow, which played a huge role in helping their empire grow. They also developed cuneiform, one of the earliest known systems of writing in human history. In addition, they came up with a method of keeping time — which modern people still use to this day.

But according to the Sumerians, they didn’t do it alone; they owed their historic breakthroughs to a group of gods called the Anunnaki. In their telling, the Anunnaki mostly descended from An, a supreme deity who could control both the fate of human kings and his fellow gods. Though much remains unknown about the Sumerians and their way of life, they left evidence of their beliefs in ancient texts, including the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the oldest written stories in human history. And if one thing is clear, it’s that the Anunnaki gods were highly revered. To worship these deities, ancient Sumerians would create statues of them, dress them in clothing, give them food, and transport them to ceremonies.

Millennia later, some scholars would speculate on what made these Anunnaki so special — and why they were held in such high regard. But it wasn’t until the 20th century that the “ancient alien” theory really took off.

Much of what we know about the Sumerian civilization comes from clues that they left behind in thousands of clay tablets. To this day, these tablets are still being researched. But one author claimed that some of the texts hold an incredible revelation — the Anunnaki were actually aliens.

In 1976, a scholar named Zecharia Sitchin wrote a book called The 12th Planet, which shared translations of 14 tablets related to Enki, a child of the Sumerian supreme deity An. His book claimed that the Sumerians believed that the Anunnaki came from a far-off planet called Nibiru.

According to Sitchin, Nibiru has an elongated orbit of 3,600 years. At one point, this planet passed close by Earth. And its people, the Anunnaki, decided to make contact with our world around 500,000 years ago. But the Anunnaki sought more than just a friendly exchange. They wanted gold, which they desperately needed to repair their planet’s atmosphere. Since the Anunnaki weren’t able to mine gold themselves, they decided to genetically engineer primitive humans to mine gold for them. And by the time the Sumerians emerged as a civilization, the Anunnaki had given people the ability to write, solve math problems, and plan cities — which led to the future development of life as we know it.

Wow ok.. so how hard is it to understand GOOGL TPU impact to NVDAs margins. It basically is constructed to be a silo chip that is designed to focus on a certain part of their business and others businesses can use until they get their own in-house product..NVDA chips are all encompassing.. This is a matter of efficiency and will def impact NVDAs margins in the coming years as more companies go the GOOGL route like AMZN MSFT etc. In 1-2yrs the chip landscape will be totally different .. instead of making 75% their margins will come down to 30-40%. Natural progression of monopolistic company. $NVDA 163 inbound
