I've seen it more times than is reasonable - I think it was on Channel 5 a lot in my teens when I only had 5 channels

In Arthur C Clarke's '2001 A Space Oddyssey', super advanced Aliens visited our planet around 2 million years ago and found a species of Hominids (Australopithecus sediba?) who were reminiscent of their own primitive ancestors. The Hominids were in real danger of exctinction and so the Aliens gave them a huge evolutionary 'leap forward' by fusing their own DNA with the 'apes'. Thus; Homo Sapiens was 'born' and we went from near bottom of the 'Food Chain' to the very top.

Reasoning that if Aliens DID visit us, and that we were then too primitive to understand, then they would leave us a 'Calling Card' to be discovered and 'read' only when we had sufficiently evolved to be able to meet them, Clarke had the aliens bury a 'Monolith' on our moon.

The buried Monolith was a 'Sentinel' (Clarke's original title) and the idea was that if MAN was able to FLY to the moon and unearth the Monolith, then it was guaranteed that we had evolved sufficiently to meet our 'creators', and once it was unearthed a signal automatically 'shot' to Jupiter - home of the 'Gods'.

Now, I wonder in the case of all these IRREFUTABLE archaeological anomalous artefacts, whether we are all now playing the same 'guessing' games as the astronauts in Clarke's story who unearthed the moon Monolith - "What the Feck is this? It shouldn't BE HERE?".

The trouble is; that in the case of those 'KNOW IT ALLS' the mainstream scientists, they try to fit each archaeological anomaly into the parameters of accepted science - no matter how big a stretch that is; The 'Baghdad Battery becomes just a mere papyrus storage jar, and Niamh's 150,000 year old radioactive metal pipes become 'natural formations', the extensive 12, 000 year old mystical site at Göbekli Tepe in Turkey is 'just a temple', for example.

Now, some 'Ancient Alien' claims have been satisfactorily 'de-bunked'; Stitchin and The Anunnaki (sorry Kizzy) and the Egyptian 'Light Bulb' of Dendera in Egypt fame, but conventional science CANNOT answer ALL the questions raised by the thousands of incongruous ancient artefacts in existence.

Oh if only we could unearth a shiny black monolith - signal to Orion's belt or Sigma Sagittarii and all.

(Although I've heard it was on Channel 5 a lot, too)

Sitchin may have been debunked for his interpretation of events which, as the debunkers is,just one mans opinion and open to scrutiny obviously.
What of the depictions in ancient Mesopotamian and Egyptian art and text or the enuma elis? The references to the nephilim in the bible ( genesis, numbers and the book of Jubilees)
Do I believe that artifacts such as the Antikythera mechanism and the Bagdad batteries were technology passed from more intelligent beings than us? Yes.
