Publisher's Synopsis
When Alan Alford set out to resolve the
mysteries of the Egyptian Pyramids and
Sphinx, he could not have predicted that his
quest would lead to the greatest historical
breakthrough since the deciphering of the
Rosetta Stone. For more than a century, the
meaning of the Pyramid Texts has baffled the
world's greatest minds. Now, at last, one man
steps forward with the key which unlocks
mankind's oldest religious traditions,
revealing a legacy of amazing astronomical
knowledge, and a secret of paramount
importance to the future of the human race.
Until now, the Great Pyramid has stood alone as a
testament to the advanced science of the ancient
Egyptians, and sceptics have thus tried to play down its significance. But Alan Alford's
discovery of modern astronomical knowledge at the heart of Egyptian religion provides a
much-needed corroboration of an 'ancient wisdom' from a 'lost race'. Alford brings a new
dimension to this debate, presenting in-depth academic arguments which address all of the
objections recently raised by Egyptologists against the 'lost race' scenario. He also brings
considerable new evidence to the table which conclusively proves that the Giza Pyramids
were 'adopted' and not built by the Egyptian kings Khufu and Khafre.
Unusually, for such a controversial book,
'The Phoenix Solution' has won support from the
eminent English historian Michael Rice
(author of several books on ancient Egypt) who has
hailed Alford's work as 'a tremendous thesis', which 'presents an entirely new dimension' to
Egyptology. In his foreword to 'The Phoenix Solution', Michael Rice rates Alford's thesis as
being of 'comparable significance' to Hamlet's Mill (by de Santillana & von Dechend) and the
various works of the great mythologist Joseph Campbell. In other words, 'The Phoenix
Solution' is probably the most important book to be published on ancient Egypt in the last 30
years.
In a nutshell, Alford's theory is that a pre-dynastic race built the Great Pyramid and deposited
at Giza certain scientific records which specifically included the catastrophic history of our
solar system and the subsequent development of life on Earth. Alford presents
overwhelming evidence that the ancient Egyptian religion was an 'exploded planet cult', and
suggests that they received this scientific theory when they themselves discovered the
legendary 'Hall of Records' at least 6,000 years ago. This profound knowledge - of
catastrophism in the heavens and on Earth - was adopted by the emerging Dynastic elite as a
means of legitimising their rule as 'divine' kings. Over the passing centuries, the religious
knowledge became encoded into the Pyramid Texts and numerous other enigmatic myths
and legends. But after several thousands years the original meaning of these myths was lost,
and the remnants of the sacred Egyptian knowledge became occulted by the emergence of
modern religions. Only now has it become possible for Alford to recapture the ancient
wisdom, as a result of the painstaking work of Egyptologists during the past two centuries,
and the recent pioneering work of astronomer Dr Tom Van Flandern.
Although the contents of the 'Hall of Records' have now been found, and exist in translated
form, the awesome implications of the Egyptian exploded planet cult are still being
assessed, and much work remains to be done. Alan Alford has come to several firm
conclusions regarding ancient mythology, the most important being that 'Atlantis' was not a
terrestrial 'island' which sank beneath the Earth's seas, but a planetary 'island' which
exploded and was 'drowned' in the watery abyss of space. Alford has also tentatively
identified connections to the origins of modern religion (including the myths of Jesus, John,
Mary and Christianity), the modern concepts of Heaven, Hell, God and the Afterlife, the
original meaning of Biblical prophesy, and the true meaning of the 'Holy Grail'. All of the latter
issues will be subject to an in-depth treatment in Alford's next book.
In summary, 'The Phoenix Solution' is a landmark book in our quest for knowledge of the
past, and is destined to become a classic in Egyptology and ancient wisdom circles.
