For decades now, journalist Graham Hancock has been making controversial claims of lost civilisations and cosmic cataclysms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Now, Netflix<\/a> is diving into Hancock\u2019s obscure historical theories with its new docuseries Ancient Apocalypse, which landed on the streamer on Friday 11th November.<\/span><\/p>\n The eight-episode series sees Hancock visit archeological sites around the world to search for evidence of lost civilisations dating back to the last Ice Age.<\/span><\/p>\n The official Netflix synopsis reads: \u201c<\/span>What if everything we know about prehistoric humans is wrong? Journalist Graham Hancock visits archeological sites around the world to uncover whether a civilisation far more advanced than we ever believed possible existed thousands of years ago.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n But who is the host of the show Graham Hancock? Read on for everything you need to know.<\/span><\/p>\n Graham Hancock is a journalist, writer and author best known for his theories on human civilisation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Most of his work has focused on investigating his controversial thesis that a global cataclysm wiped out a great global civilisation thousands of years ago, a topic on which he has published 12 books.<\/span><\/p>\n In his 1995 book Fingerprints of the Gods, Hancock claimed that a highly advanced civilisation was wiped out by a comet strike in Antarctica roughly 13,000 years ago.<\/p>\n His 2015 sequel, titled Magicians of the Gods, brought new evidence supporting his thesis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Ahead of its release, he told <\/span>The Sunday Times<\/span><\/a>: <\/span>\u201cIn 1995, I wrote a book about all the clues \u2013 the fingerprints \u2013 that pointed to the existence of this lost civilisation.\u201d<\/span><\/p> He added: \u201cBut what I lacked was a smoking gun. Now we have it.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cA series of papers in geophysics and geological journals have been bringing forward evidence that the Earth was indeed hit by a comet 12,800 years ago, which is exactly what I proposed in my book.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Hancock\u2019s work has drawn criticism from historical and archaeological academics and been termed by some as pseudohistory and pseudoarchaeology.<\/span><\/p>\n Ancient\u00a0Apocalypse is available to watch on Netflix<\/a>\u00a0now.
