There is a hypothesis that humans were created by a group of advanced extraterrestrials known as the Anunnaki. To gather gold on Earth, they used genetic technology to combine their DNA with primitive animals on the planet, thus creating a new species—humans, like us today.
The primary proponent of this theory is American author and ancient culture researcher Zecharia Sitchin, who laid the foundations and evidence for this theory in his series “The Earth Chronicles.” However, it should be clarified that while the archaeological evidence mentioned in “The Earth Chronicles” is true and reliable to some extent, Sitchin’s work is essentially a piece of science fiction literature, and his theory of extraterrestrial creation is purely his own imagination.

Legends say that powerful prehistoric civilizations once existed on Earth, and the oldest known among them is the Sumerian civilization. A civilization that should never have appeared on Earth! Its emergence is highly inconsistent with the natural laws of development, as it appeared very abruptly.
The level of civilization of the Sumerians exceeded our existing understanding of that era; they not only developed standard elements of civilization like writing, cities, and metallurgy, but also made significant advancements in many core fields. Whether it is social organization, religious concepts, agricultural technology, military strength, or financial systems, the Sumerians reached an astonishing level.
This extremely modern prehistoric civilization raises doubts that the Sumerian civilization was, in fact, a manifestation of extraterrestrials. This assertion is not without reason, as according to the Sumerians’ own records, they believed that everything in the world was created by “God.” The first king who descended from the sky was the Anunnaki from the planet Nibiru.

About 450,000 years ago, due to over-exploitation of planet Nibiru, this planet’s atmosphere was severely damaged. Repairing the atmosphere of Nibiru required a large amount of gold, but at that time, Nibiru had no gold left to support the repair.
After surveying neighboring planets, they discovered that Earth was rich in gold resources, so they sent an exploration team to Earth and established a base there. Accompanying them to Earth was a slave race known as the Yijiji. The Yijiji had a low status and were forced to work in mines for the Anunnaki. These Yijiji people endured oppression and fatigue, and their lives were extremely difficult.
As time passed, the Yijiji race eventually could not bear this oppression any longer and initiated a rebellion. However, this uprising ultimately failed. The Anunnaki slaughtered nearly the entire Yijiji population. With the collapse of the Yijiji race, the Anunnaki lost their slave labor force.

To find a more efficient labor force, Anu, the ruler of Nibiru, decided to have his son Enki create a new slave species through genetic modification. Since they were initially unfamiliar with Earth creatures, they conducted numerous experiments. Unfortunately, all ended in failure.
Eventually, they successfully created a being they were satisfied with based on primitive humanoid creatures: primitive Homo sapiens. As time passed, the appearance of Homo sapiens gradually resembled that of the people from Nibiru, and the number of Homo sapiens continued to increase. Several women from Nibiru and Homo sapiens gave birth to many hybrid offspring.
The genes of these children were unmodified; they were nearly as tall as the Nibiru people, and their intelligence and abilities were also similar to those of the Nibiruans. In Sumerian literature, this new species was referred to as giants. Subsequently, these giants began to establish their own dynasty. The first king of this dynasty was named Alulim—recorded in the “Sumerian King List.”
Some figures in the “Sumerian King List” have been confirmed as real by archaeologists. (Illustration: Zhihu).
However, the records in the “Sumerian King List” have caused much controversy in the archaeological community, as according to these records, Alulim’s ancestors were said to have descended from the sky, and 8 kings ruled for a total of 240,000 years until the great flood occurred.
This long dynasty and such an unusual lifespan make some wonder whether it is merely a fabricated myth. However, the shocking thing is that after the great flood, the lifespans of the kings described in “The Sumerian King List” became increasingly shorter, very much resembling the conditions described in many ancient books.
Moreover, some figures in “The Sumerian King List” have been confirmed as real by archaeologists, and their reign times and durations have also been verified. For instance, Gilgamesh, around 2600 BC, was revealed to be the son of Lugalbanda and a demigod with superhuman powers. Although his reign was very short, his story is still widely recounted in the “Epic of Gilgamesh.”
If the “Sumerian King List” is accurate, it means the “Great Flood” did exist. (Illustration: Zhihu)
Additionally, 16 Sumerian King Lists from different periods have been excavated, and the content of these lists is fundamentally similar, further affirming their authenticity. Therefore, the kings recorded at the top of the king lists, who reigned for tens of thousands of years, may indeed have existed. Some may wonder why the kings listed in the “Sumerian King List” lived so long. This is because these rulers were all descendants of the Nibiruans. With the departure of the Nibiruans, the number of demigods on Earth gradually decreased, and their bloodlines continued to dilute, eventually resembling the lifespan of normal humans.
If the “Sumerian King List” is accurately recorded by the Sumerians, it implies that the “Great Flood” did occur. However, there is still much debate about whether the “Great Flood” existed, as the archaeological community has not found any evidence of such a great flood. Interestingly, the flood narrative is a common myth among many cultures worldwide, including Greek, Chinese, Mayan, and other civilizations. All have legends of flood devastation occurring at different times. If one day the “Great Flood” is proven to have actually happened, what we now consider myth may no longer be a myth.
