UFOs and Flying Machines in the Ancient World
When I first came across this subject many years ago, I promptly dismissed it as historically and scientifically impossible. After all, we only began to master flight just over a century ago, right? But as I became more curious and interested in ancient history, I began to realize that scientists, historians, archaeologists and other experts didn’t have the answer to the many questions I began to have.
Next thing I knew, I was reading about ancient flying
machines called vimanas and hidden, suppressed technology, and although many of
these books were written by laymen without impressive titles or credentials,
they actually made more sense to me than the history books we are taught at
school and in universities!
One of the most compelling arguments for flight in ancient
times, in my opinion, are the Nazca lines in Peru. Not only are most of the diagrams and
pictograms on the flat desert plains meant to be seen from high above, but a
hilltop had been flattened to look exactly like a modern-day runway.
Then there are artifacts that look like model planes, found both
in Ancient Egypt and the ancient Americas.
Granted, some of them could be representations of birds or even a fish,
but then there’s also an ancient written text describing flying machines called
vimanas. That’s right: the Vedic texts of Ancient India mentions
them several times.

Erich von Däniken, who wrote Chariots of the Gods and
similar books about what is now referred to as “the Ancient Alien” theory, has found countless pictures, statues
and artifacts which resemble flying craft, astronauts and other highly advanced
technology. Can we really dismiss it
all as misinterpretation of historic records?
Other people, some with impressive credentials in science and physics, believe that Tesla had developed a completely different "science" which included anti-gravitational electromagnetic energy. One plausible theory is that this technology, which became
hidden or suppressed and was only known to a select few, is being used to make
modern-day flying craft in the shape of saucers. Could these be the UFOs people keep seeing in our skies?
Whatever the truth may be, I have used this idea in Rhuna: New Horizons, which is set in Ancient India, and where the 'vimanas' are propelled by electromagnetic anti-gravitational forces.
