You sir, are a closed-minded disinfo agent - whether you are aware of that or not.
The categorical statement that 'no ancients were aware of planets beyond Saturn' is an absolute joke. Piles of textual evidence point to knowledge of advanced astronomy in the twentieth century BC, which was far beyond what we as humans had prior to the twentieth century AD.
Anyone who reads my post, please be aware that people like Stereologist will generally stop at nothing, ignoring multiple evidential finds and intelligent hypotheses, simply to prove that they are right and we (who seek after truth) are wrong. Anyone who is seriously looking for the truth of the matter (as opposed to simply trying to disprove something that doesn't sit well with them) will look at the evidence (archaeological, geological, biological, textual, cultural traditions etc) and will keep an open mind as to what the possible conclusions might mean for humanity.
And don't try to tell me that people like Sitchin aren't qualified to offer well-reasoned, logical, fact-fitting and downright sensible conclusions based on the evidence drawn across the past few centuries.
FOR GOODNESS' SAKE, STOP TRYING TO FORCE PEOPLE TO ACCEPT A BUTTON-DOWN, BS WORLDVIEW, when the reality is infinitely more mind-stretching (and yet fits the evidence much better than the traditional theories of evolution, societal development etc).
The Truth is there for the taking - don't let people like Stereologist/ Harte et al put you off.
Noah.
What piles of textual evidence? The only thing I can think of is the drawing of a star and 10 or so "planets" around it, which was thoroughly debunked, so please, give me more.
Do you have any evidence for ancient knowledge of planets beyond Saturn?

It's not surprising that once again you are unable to provide any evidence, only a poorly worded ad hominem attack in which you openly suggested that people should die. Very sad.
So now all you can do is be a close minded fool and shut your eyes and ears to simple astronomy that says no new planets in the orbits of the known planets. Instead you pray that tens of thousands of astronomers are wrong and that in some ridiculous way you might be correct.
The only way for this to happen is for you to pull together your kiddie fantasies and wish upon a star. Try listening to Jimminy Cricket for a few hours and see what your fantasies can bring.
In the mean time the rest of us will learn something about this amazing universe of ours and discover truth.

Oh, it's you again! Is this your fulltime job - debunking Nibiru? You've got Nibiruitis. Beats me why you're so fascinated about something you don't believe in. Are you going to bring in Sitchin next and tell me you know more about Nibiru than he does? Or quote some unknown 'expert' and tell us to believe him and thus you?
Sterologist, you are transparent!

I see that you are not posting evidence for ancient knowledge of the planets beyond Saturn. This is because you cannot do it.
Your post is a sham and you and everyone else knows it. The use of the logical fallacy of proving a universal negative doesn't fly either.
Again, do you have any evidence for ancient knowledge of planets beyond Saturn?
