"in this well-researched book sylvain tristan has made a convincing case that an advanced mathematical and astronomical science existed in prehistoric times, that was shared by peoples across continents, and which has also trickled down the ages through secret societies such as the knights templar and the freemasons.numbers of the gods is a must-read book for anyone fascinated by humankind's forgotten origins." -- robert bauval, author of the orion mystery
"a very well written book with copious quotes and references, illustrated throughout... sylvain has woven together evidence from 7,000 years of history from multiple authors into a comprehensive volume... anyone interested in this field should find it illuminating... a very worthwhile addition to the ancient science debate." -- the megalithic portal
"serious research but easy to read. a must-read if you enjoyed martin brennan's 'boyne valley vision' or graham hancock's work.
"this is a serious book filled with what must be years of research, but it's written in such a laid-back, conversational style, it's like the author's talking directly to you. pretty much all the information can be verified with google earth, which has given me hours of fun. sylvain tristan proves that somehow our very distant ancestors, all over the world, were aware of and used the same units of measurement, both when building megalithic monuments and when planning settlements - and that this lineage of information has continued to this day, with modern cities (from washington dc to astana) being built along the same lines, literally." 5 stars -- amazon.co.uk

"astronomy and geometry were the sciences that the earliest sages excelled in. astronomy was their key to the secrets of the universe, 'the harmony of the spheres.' geometry means to measure the earth, and in this book we see that's exactly what the ancients did – and so exactly that we can't imagine how they did it. to these visionary sages, mathematics was mixed with magic. we moderns take that as a sign of ignorance, but did those early wizards see deeper into a secret side of numbers, which we now take for granted as prosaic and mechanical?
"this is not a religious book. it tells its story with skeptical nonchalance, yet the incred...
