Zecharia Sitchin Passes Away
The Sitchin website is newly informing the world that “Zecharia Sitchin passed away on the morning of October 9th. A small, private family funeral was held the next day.”
The radical thinker died at the age of 90.
“The family asks that you respect its privacy during this difficult time and refrain from contacting family members directly. Instead, to offer tributes to Mr. Sitchin or to contact those handling his affairs, please…send a letter to P.O. Box 577, New York, NY 10185.”
The standardized biographical details of his life usually overlap his theories and works with those of Immanuel Velikovsky and Erich von Däniken.
Zecharia Sitchin (born July 11, 1920 – died October 9, 2010) was an author of books promoting an explanation for human origins involving ancient astronauts. Sitchin attributes the creation of the ancient Sumerian culture to the Anunnaki, which he claims to be a race of extra-terrestrials from a planet beyond Neptune called Nibiru. He believed this hypothetical planet of Nibiru to be in an elongated, elliptical orbit in the Earth’s own Solar System, asserting that Sumerian mythology reflects this view.
According to the Skeptic’s Dictionary, Sitchin’s work have been ridiculed by professional scientists, historians, and archaeologists. For more, see here.
