Except that Uranus is actually a Latinized form of the original term Ouranos who, other than being associated with the sky, has very little in common with the Sumerian Anu. Anu, in fact, shares far more in common with the Greek god Zeus. Both were seen as extremely powerful sky-gods, for example. Furthermore, both deities were the central figures in a triat of ruling gods. For the Sumerians, these gods were Anu himself, along with Bel and Ea. For the Greeks, the triat comprised of Zeus, Poseidon and Hades. Both Zeus and Anu were perceived as being not only rulers or kings of the gods, but also as being fathers of various subsequent deities.

However, even these links are to be expected. Each of these gods represents a fundamental aspect of the universe - the sky, the Earth/underworld and the waters. It is to be expected that deities will share similar features across cultures. However, these links are hardly evidence of a common shared history and are no evidence at all of alien visitation. They are more indicative of the human inclination to anthropomorphise natural phenomena to quantify and understand their surroundings and to exert some measure of control over their environment. Speculation is all well and good, especially here in Skunkworks, but we must bend our theories to fit what we find via archaeology and history, not the other way around. Any theory can be proven correct if we blind ourselves to all other alternatives.

GAEA was the mother of the gods,she was know as mother GAEA,or MOTHER EArth gaEA-EA-RTH..yes thats were we get the term mother earth

Are you attempting to draw parallels between the Greek goddess Gaea and the Sumerian god Ea here? I'm just a little puzzled, since Ea (who is actually a later representation of the earlier Sumerian deity known as Enki) is not only male, but is associated not with the Earth, but with the watery abyss known as the Abzu. It would seem to me that any link between these two deities is unfounded.

Apollos,chariot was the ancient description of a ufo????

It is more likely that Apollo's chariot was representative of the sun, given that Apollo drew his chariot across the sky each day. Why would you think that the description of a horse-drawn chariot was a description of a UFO? The only similarity I can think of is that they both travel in the sky. The idea of a flying chariot would not have been a difficult concept for the Greeks to imagine, given that they are aware of animals abilities to fly and possessed legends of flying horses, such as Pegasus. It seems to be popular to attribute any description of a chariot which could fly in ancient mythology as a UFO. Apollo's chariot is clearly described as being horse-drawn which, to me, seems to run counter to modern descriptions of UFOs. We must remember that the ancient Greeks were not stupid. They were extremely adept at technical aspects of engineering and it is difficult to believe that they would have seen a UFO and described it as a simple, horse-drawn chariot.

the titans were ALSO know as the Annunaki

By whom? I am afraid that I do not follow your line of reasoning here. You seem to want to draw parallels between the Annunaki and the Titans, but then speculate about links between the Annunaki and the Greek pantheon of gods. The Annunaki and the Titans were very distinct groups, each possessing their own intricate mythologies and legends.

Zues thunderbolts were the ancient descriptions for missles flying through the air????

I think it would benefit this theory to apply Occam's Razor. What is more likely - that the ancient Greeks, upon observing lightning and thunder attributed them to their primary god of the sky (where lightning derives from) or that they saw or heard of a battle in which modern-style missiles were utilised and interpreted or described them as thunderbolts? To me, the first seems much more likely. The Greeks would have been very well aware of the destructive power of lightning, so envisioning it as a weapon is a natural association. Furthermore, attributing this powerful weapon to Zeus is also appropriate, given his role as both a sky-god and as the most powerful god of their pantheon. No reimagining of this association is necessary to explain Zeus' thunderbolt.

the biblical gods created EARTH humans in there image,greek myths say the gods could make us from dust,doesnt that sound familar..adam and eve...huh?

But again, the association between humans and dust is a fairly natural one to make, and does not constitute evidence for the involvement of extraterrestrial genetic engineers. When a person is buried, they literally go back into the Earth. Is it so unreasonable, then, to perceive this as giving people back to the Earth? Furthermore, humans are reliant upon the Earth for life. We toil to make the Earth fertile and in response it gives forth life in the form of plants, fruits and vegetables, which provide us with food we need to live. The links between the Earth (and its more base elements - clay, dust, rocks) and life are natural ones and do not imply anything other than a fundamental understanding of our reliance upon the Earth to supply us with life-giving resources.
