John Cowie is a veteran of the semiconductor revolution. As a former senior executive with Philips, Intel and Tyan Computer, his original intention was to write a book based on the characters he met and his first-hand experiences during his many years in this exciting young industry. But as he watched the remarkable evolution of the silicon chip and in turn the personal computer and telecommunications industries, he began to link these extraordinary envisioneering achievements with the human brain. Regular journeys past the ancient sites of Silbury Hill and the standing stones of Avebury prompted him to consider where our knowledge could have come from and the seeds of the Alien Visitor gene theory began.
John believes that Silbury Hill was constructed as an early pyramid and continues to explore his belief that pyramids were built as multifunctional devices to ensure the survival of extraterrestrials (and their succeeding offspring), that landed on Earth some 13,000 years ago.
Can pyramids provide important clues to early human evolution and history as explored in his book Silbury Dawning: The Alien Visitor Gene Theory?
Since the Silbury Hill English Heritage Conservation Project 2007-2008, John has continued his global search for further evidence, from the famous ancient pyramids in Egypt to the many newly discovered pyramids from Bosnia to China, to establish whether Silbury Hill was indeed one of the first pyramids built on Earth.
Why were hundreds if not thousands of pyramids built on every continent during our pre-history? It seems that pyramid geometry and their amazing scientific properties were clearly understood by our ancient ancestors?
Since the publication of Silbury Dawning, John has retired from the semiconductor industry and is now living in Bradford on Avon, Wiltshire where he plans to complete part II of the Alien Visitor Gene Theory later this year. This sequel to Silbury Dawning will provide overwhelming evidence that extraterrestrials lived on Earth in our pre-history!
