The earliest written langauge is cuneiform from Sumer. Scientists all agree that civilization spang up overnight,(a metaphor), in Sumer.

By civilization I mean, medicine, law, government, Irrigation, agriculture, metallurgy, writing, the wheel, urban planning, even an advanced knowledge of the solar system.
where did the Sumers learn this: " they said all that we know we learned from the gods."
The name For the sumer gods was "Annunaki".
The texts of Sumer tell of an alien race landing on earth and mining gold, Ever wonder why gold was valuable? Even the south American cultures hoarded it, not for themselves they told the spanish invaders," it does not belong to us, it belongs to the gods"- they believed they would be coming back fir it, maybe they will.
The Gold was used by the Annunaki as a shield during their planets perihelion, or close pass to the sun.
They atomized it and released it into their upper stratosphere. how do we know?, this is what the Sumers wrote down.
After thousands of years the annunaki on earth revolted from the leadership, mining is hard work and the annunaki recorded their lifespans at over 400,000 years. the chief scientist of the lot named Enki said let us create the lulu or primative worker, the texts describe a process of genetically enhancing homo erectus to homo sapiens, it was not an easy task and the early attempt did not produce humans able to reproduce. This is what the SUMERS wrote down in their earliest texts. any one here want to add to this?
or Talk about it?

You have absolutely no concept of what you're repeating. You're simply parroting what other quasi-researchers like Zecharia Sitchin have "translated". You do know Sitchin isn't qualified to translate anything don't you? You keep stating "what they wrote down in their texts", "the texts", "the texts describe". EXACTLY WHICH TEXTS ARE YOU REFERRING TO? Are you pointing to the Poetry texts? The Dynasty Texts? The Hymns? Which text, specifically, are you referring to that has been translated to indicate all of this?

Did you do all the translation yourself or did you get all of this information from a reliable (translation:fringe) source? You have the education neccessary to translate cuneiform? You read a 5,000 year old language?

It's people like you that come to the UFO community with your false sense of knowledge, misleading historical facts and fringe translations and give the community such a crackpot image. It's no wonder we can't make any headway into this phenomenon...nobody wants to deal with "history professors" like this Sumerian expert above.
