Archaeology WARNING: They Secretly Found Antarctica 300 Years Before Us - Graham Hancock
"There appear to have been organizations in each of these civilizations. In Egypt, they were called the Followers of Horus. In Sumer, they were called the Apkallu. They served as advisers to kings. They were called sages. Many cultures refer to them as the Seven Sages. They provided advice to kings in the historical period. And I'm wondering whether we're looking at some kind of long-lived organization here, which is carrying down information, looking for the right time to switch the engine of civilization back on again."
Hancock presented evidence of secret societies of sages across ancient civilizations who advised kings and may have preserved knowledge from pre-flood times. He suggests these organizations—the Followers of Horus in Egypt, the Apkallu in Sumer—operated behind the scenes to preserve and transmit information from a lost civilization, waiting for the right moment to restart advanced civilization after cataclysm.
