Heaven's Mirror: Quest for the Lost Civilization
In Heaven's Mirror, author Graham Hancock continues the quest begun in his international best-seller Fingerprints of the Gods: to rediscover the hidden legacy of mankind and to reveal that "ancient" cultures were, in fact, the heirs to a far older forgotten civilization and the inheritors of its archaic, mystical wisdom.
Working with photographer Santha Faiia, Hancock traces a network of sacred sites around the globe on a spectacular voyage of discovery that takes us from the pyramids and temples of ancient Egypt to the enigmatic statues of Easter Island, from the haunting ruins of pre-Columbian America to the splendors of Angkor Wat. It is a journey through myth, magic, and astounding archaeological revelations that forces us to rethink the cultures of our lost ancestors and the origins of civilization.
The first fully illustrated book by Graham Hancock, Heaven's Mirror is a stunning and illuminating tour of the spirituality of the ancients--a search for a secret recorded in the very foundations of the holiest sites of antiquity.

I like Graham Hancock. I've read several of his books, seen a few of his videos and listened to many of his interviews. He seems a fine, compassionate fellow. He'll do a book on the Ark of the Covenant supposedly held in Ethiopia, then do one on hunger in that country. In his book Supernatural, where he tries out various psychotropics, he is delightfully frank in his descriptions of his fears and anxieties. He's a fair writer, a good storyteller, an earnest investigator.
This book deserves five stars for the photographs taken by Santha Faiia, Hancock's wife. They're beautiful and add much to the text.
The text itself isn't so impressive. Indeed, all the talk about the secrets of immortality in the buildup finally amount to nothing, nothing at all. Hancock doesn't even draw the rather obvious connections he might between the apparently endless cycles of the cosmos and the cycles of human life and death which, viewed as wholes, constitute a sort of immortality--though not the kind most modern readers would probably be interested in.
What Hancock does achieve, as uaual, is to raise a lot of questions which can be construed to leave open the possibility that there have been human civilizations on earth older than the ones commonly recognized. He certainly doesn't prove such a thing, but he does pose it as an hypothesis worthy of consideration. If one had never read his other works, this one could serve as a general introduction to his work and main historical concerns.
While well edited so far as grammar and spelling are concerned, the book could have used more intelligent content editing. Among the many petty little things that irritated me were his (1) inconsistent manner of rendering Latin names; (2) repeated references to Columbus discovering Anerica; (3) reference to G. Julius Caesar as an emperor; and (4) use of the term 'lion' to refer to South American felines that are no such thing. These are just stupid mistakes, unforgiveable in a book of such quality.
Beyond that, Hancock's concluding discussion of what he thinks of as the 'Gnostic' religion of antiquity is just plain sophomoric. He obviously hasn't read much on the subject. I shudder to think how he may be misleading me in his discussions of topics I don't know so much about.

With photos, so you can play along at home: pile of rocks? Or ZOMG LOST CIVILIZATION?! You decide!
August 31, 2021
Subtitled ‘Quest for the Lost Civilisation’, this book led to a major TV series on the UK’s Channel 4 network. Published in 1998, some of the content may now be a little out of date, as archaeological work is constantly updating information based on finds.
The book is an attempt to explain the many, significant, similarities that have been found in sites in Mexico, Egypt, Cambodia, the Pacific islands, and Peru and Bolivia. Some have labelled these confluences of ideas and design ‘coincidence’, and though it is true that coincidence is far more common than many people think, it really cannot be used as a reason for the similarities discussed in the book.
The conclusion reached by the authors is that the ideas and constructions are the result of an early, currently undiscovered, civilisation. The argument is persuasive, applying many astronomical and engineering similarities in the monumental sites and considering these in conjunction with any written evidence still in existence. I could have done without the repeated mathematical explanations relating to precession: once would have been enough for me.
I do, however understand why the need was felt to drive home this aspect of the design of these colossal monuments. The world of archaeology, in common with many branches of science, has a self-defeating attitude to questions that fail to fit in with recognised ‘authorised’ theory, almost treating the early science as if it were some form of sacred text that must not be brought into doubt. It’s a failure of such narrow-minded science, of course, since real science recognises known facts are those so far discovered, explored and peer-tested, and welcomes any challenge that produces some form of evidence that might be tested. Science is not ‘fixed’ but is a developing body of information ripe for question, experiment, and exploration.
One of the fundamental questions that arises regarding any civilisation founded during the last ice age (begun around 2.6 millions ago and lasting until around 11,700 years ago) relates to the apparent lack of evidence. One simple reason for this absence may well be the difference in sea levels. The sea was approximately 130 metres (425 feet) below its current level. Since it is likely most people involved in an earlier civilisation would be inclined to live at or near the coast, where an easy source of protein was available from seafood, all evidence of their existence is probably buried beneath that now deep water, and far from the current coasts of the world’s continents. Such evidence as may have survived will be incredibly difficult to discover. It’s also interesting that the myths and legends supporting many religions include a tale of a devastating flood; possibly this is a reference to the sudden melting of the last ice age and the resulting inundation of many previously habitable areas.
A final aspect of the book particularly chimes with me: the idea that this early civilisation was founded on a religion that saw the soul as something separate from the body, something capable of surviving bodily death and able, through various means, to ascend to the stars. It strikes me such beliefs may well be the foundations of many more modern religions, where a heaven is envisaged for those faithful to the myths and legends surrounding their particular sect and who may travel there after their body has died. It’s just one more reason to examine religion more thoroughly and disinterestedly to find out where such odd ideas originated. The idea of eternal life, in some form, is more or less universal among many of the various faiths, and perhaps that impossible dream is derived from the distortion of the beliefs of those uninformed ancients from an earlier civilisation. Who knows?

Heaven's Mirror was an interesting read. Graham's Hancock's theories are infectious and at times you find yourself marvelling at all of the wonderful coincidences and halfway believing him. Other times, he takes liberal use of supposition (even going so far as to suppose what Albert Einstein would have thought of one of his ideas) and he throws out so many ideas that he reminds me of a desperate defense attorney who throws out any idea to throw doubt on the prosecutor's case. Here, Mr. Hancock throws out any number of theories, including Atlantis; aliens (but never says it - but he leads you that way); Egyptians coming to Europe, Asia, South America and Polynesia; the use of magic or an unknown force to build ancient megaliths and more.
I enjoyed the book but there are occassional bad photographs that mar the book - he refers to one picture two or three different times and the picture is not clear - the image has been worn too much over time. That would have been the perfect time for a traced outline of the picture, like he does with other unclear photos. Sometimes shadows obscure the images he would like us to see - the shadows make the pictures quite beautiful but the images are the point of the exercise. However, in general the quality of the pictures reminds me of those of National Geographic.
Mr. Hancock poses so many theories that he is sorely in need of a chart in the back of his book so that we can quickly see some of the theories and how the data looks when compared across the board.
However, in defense of his book...

Extensively researched and beautifully photographed, one of my all-time favourite books on ancient mysteries! Introduced me to the legendary Mesoamerican city of Teotihuacan, the enigmatic Easter Island statues and the exquisitely designed temples of Angkor Wat. Took me a while to finish it but left me feeling inspired to discover more with a list of must-see locations on my travel map.

Puts forward some great theories to make you rethink the world's history as we know it. Scoffed at by the "experts" but only because if he is right, they know they will have wasted many years barking up the wrong tree.
February 2, 2017
Certainly makes you think and question the status quo of history and what we've been taught. A compelling case that much older civilisations thrived in our world.
November 13, 2010
A lot of rehashing of his previous works, but still contains some very interesting nuggets o' knowledge. If you can make it through the rehash (this one accompanied by a ton of color pictures, one of his first books with pics I believe) it's worth the effort. Starting to find that a lot of these speculative, alt-history books contain many of the same theories mixed in with new stuff, so it begins to feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. But again, worth the effort if this type of stuff interests you.

Essentially the author is positing that there was an ancient civilization that helped create many of the ruins that archeologists are now exploring i.e. Pyramids in Egypt, Easter Island statues, Machu Picchu, etc. He believes that such structures were created as models of constellations and that they have a religious significance. Some of his theories are in opposition to other researchers/archeologists and he seems to try to fit things to some preconcieved notions. An interesting text non-the-less.

Even though I may not agree with the assumptions, I found this a good read and good for creating discussions. See how many of your friends agree or disagree with you about what is presented in this book.

As a follow-up to his Fingerprints of the Gods, this is a good book. Very easy to read, and thoroughly enjoyable. I finished the book, and wanted more, that is why I gave it three stars.

This is a really fascinating book. Defo got me hooked and convinced me that the history they teach us isn't totally correct.

Fascinating. This book really makes you re-evaluate your assumptions.

Many nice pictures. I love that he didn't pussyfoot around calling the Mayans "bloodthirsty psychopaths"! No political correctness here! And basically, he's right.
January 21, 2025
The book is an excellent continuation of "Fingerprints of the Gods", and to anyone who wants to read it I would strongly recommend to read "Fingerprints" first. Graham takes us literally around the world.
He first revisits Mexico and Egypt. In these first two parts of the book, he resumes with observations that are already described in Fingerprints. However, he adds plenty more photographs and especially very good diagrams and maps that make the astronomical ideas he writes about easy to understand for the everyday person.
The book became more interesting for me, when Graham continues his travels and takes us to Cambodia, the Pacific and the Nazca lines of Peru, places not previously visited. Here he describes more unusual coincidences that match previous observations and make it again plausible that a worldwide, ancient civilisation existed before it was wiped out at the end of the last Ice Age. He ends in Peru and Bolivia, which he already visited in "Fingerprints".
What makes this book outstanding is that the writing is accompanied by many great photographs as well as helpful maps and diagrams. Overall, it further supports his theory by adding more historical sites in different parts of the world that show the same design of ideas and unusual structures that mirror the heavens, which to me seems more than just coincidence.
One thing I have to criticise ist that some of the photos could have been enhanced artificially because it is impossible to recognize much of the details (for example page 36 Tablet of the Foliated Cross, Palenque), and some photos are simply too small to recognize any details.
While there have been findings since this book's publication (Goebekli Tepe, The Younger Dryas Impact Theory) that make his ideas even more reasonable, it is kind of sad that there are areas where no progress has been made in over 25 years. He writes about an unopened chamber in the Akapana Pyramid at Tiahuanaco that was discovered in 1997, and yet I have not found any information that further excavations have been made there. In this regard, as old as this book is, it is still relevant.

Incredible book. It’s taken me a while to read as I liked to pause and think about the ideas put forth in Heavens Mirror.
The site of Sacsayhauman was really interesting. The temple mound of Ollantaytambo is just mind blowing. Granite megaliths ranging 50-70 tonnes was impressive, but the 100-200 tonne megaliths quarried nearly 8km away and about 900 metres higher on the other side of the river.. they didn’t move rocks, they literally moved mountains. Quarried, transported, cut, elevated, moved into place with such precision. Cutting granite on that scale would be a challenge today with the machinery available. Everything of value that could of taught us more about the early inhabitants of South America was destroyed and/or lost by the Spanish. Such a shame!
The two things that fascinate me the most are ancient civilisations and the cosmos, and the work in this book presents a link between the two. How ancient sites around the world like the the pyramids in Egypt, and the Angor Wat temples in Cambodia, are aligned to true north, map star constellations in the sky, and show a clear understanding of the cycle of precession shown in the building of these incredible sites.
I feel like this kind of work is shining light on the mystery of our existence. So much we still don’t know about ourselves, the planet, our solar system, and the universe. This work by Graham gives you a one second glimpse into a three hour movie. So much to learn, so little time to learn it!

A distanza dalla mia prima lettura di questo libro - corredato dalle bellissime immagini di luoghi mitici - mi scopro decisamente più vecchia e disincantata.
L'idea della civiltà di avanzatissime conoscenze e poteri capacità che avrebbe colonizzato la terra forse provenendo da altri mondi in epoca remotissima, ha un po' perso lo smalto di quando avevo trent'anni e ci credevo ciecamente. Forse perchè le teorie sono rimaste teorie e in tutto questo tempo nessun elemento è emerso ad asseverarle in maniera se non definitiva quantomeno consistente.
Resta sempre molto intrigante l'esame delle costruzioni megalitiche erette millenni or sono e l'esame delle molte domande circa la loro origine che non riescono a trovare risposta.
Resta che Graham Hancock per me è stato e continua a essere un grande affabulatore, molto british nel suo aplomb, e che non ha certo la faccia del ciarlatano. Magari potrebbe anche esserlo, ma devo a lui molti percorsi di studio e ricerca che mi hanno condotta su altre bellissime strade, e devo a lui molti sogni ad occhi aperti sotto i cieli stellati d'estate. E tanto mi basta.

A must read! Different Civilizations united by One Spiritual Teaching is the hypothesis of Graham Hancock. Again, I find myself agreeing with the facts he presents. The questions remain: Why are the ancient civilizations pointing toward the time when Vega was the North Star? Why is Jupiter (Dyauspitṛ) referred to as the Protector of the Heaven by India's spiritual tradition? Could the resetting of time (and humanity) lie in the sky when Draco is at its highest altitude?
I guess the sages would point toward the Heaven if they're trying to leave an indelible message for mankind that they knew could survive any deluge down here, upon Mother Earth. I guess they would leave it in the precise languages of mathematics and astronomy. I guess they would also build a Heaven's Mirror on Earth so that we don't dismiss their message (or maybe warning) as mere coincidence.

This is a big thick book with lots of divine illustrations.
I read it in an afternoon!
It's about one couple's travels and gnosis on similarities found in ancient civilizations, as well as a few unique master works that would indicate some earlier influence. One of the main common thread, is the Celestial importance. Wonderful illustrations! Really fun to read. And as I love ancient Egyptian art and Spirituality- there was plenty of that!

In nearly all of his books, Graham Hancock is searching for an ancient common "ancestor society" (my phrase, not his). He supposes it could have existed around 10,500 BC.
This is one of those books, exploring similarities between places like Egypt, Cambodia, Mexico, Japan, Easter Island, and South America. The focus in this book is on astronomy, the path in the heavens souls need to find before they die, and structures on earth mirroring constellations in the skies.

A example of what has been shown to be poor and very selective use of data. Seems convincing and nicely presented but not to be taken too seriously. Donated my copy to charity.

Not the best Hancock book but as always it's worth a read.
