Ancient Aliens (2010)
S08E04 The Reptilians
Episode Overview
The concept of Reptilian aliens has long been a staple of science fiction, appearing in works from H.P. Lovecraft's Valusians to Star Trek's Cardassians and the Visitors from the series V. However, could ancient legends of serpent-like beings suggest a deeper truth beyond mere fiction? Myths of reptilian entities exist across the globe. Religious texts, including the Bible and the Quran, along with the ancient Nag Hammadi codices, recount human interactions with these creatures. In Mesoamerica, the feathered serpent gods Kukulkan and Quetzalcoatl were venerated, while India's Nagas, part human, part reptile, are said to dwell in the underground realm of Patala. Additionally, many Chinese and Japanese emperors claim lineage from dragons. Might these age-old tales indicate actual encounters with Reptilian beings in humanity's distant past?
