Impacts created deep trenches (Puerto Rico and Mariana) and magnetic anomalies like the Bermuda and Dragon’s Triangles. Survivors, including priestly Estekna-Manes, preserved knowledge underground, forming the Great White Brotherhood, or dispersed to seed civilizations like Sumerian, Egyptian, Mayan, and Inca.
This theory posits that Genesis 5 draws from older Mesopotamian texts, like the Sumerian King List, where pre-flood rulers reigned for tens of thousands of years.

Sitchin connected the biblical account of creation to the Sumerian epic, suggesting that “Tohu va’vohu” (formless and void) referred to chaos caused by a celestial event, possibly linked to the destruction of the planet Tiamat.
Genesis 1:2 may describe Earth as a result of catastrophic events. This interpretation resonates with Sumerian texts that recount a celestial battle involving a planet named Tiamat, which led to Earth’s formation.
It is interesting how the prefix “an” in both Sumerian and Egyptian means “of Heaven.” Anubis (Anpu in Egyptian) and Anu (Sumerian) both possessed the symbology of the jackal or dog, suggesting a direct connection to the Dog Star Sirius.
