Ep 10. The Prototypes

In Ancient Aliens season 11 episode 10, titled "The Prototypes," viewers are taken on an exploration of ancient artifacts and legends that suggest the existence of extraterrestrial beings and their possible influence on human history. The episode focuses on the idea that aliens not only visited our planet long ago but they may have also left behind prototypes of advanced technology, which humans later mimicked to create modern-day machinery and inventions.

The show examines evidence from various ancient cultures such as the Mayans, Incans, and Egyptians, and presents the idea that the underlying theme in their constructions and artifacts is advanced technology and the intricate knowledge needed to create them. For instance, the episode illustrates how the Mayans built pyramids and temples, which were intended to be energy conductors and channels that communicated with the gods or extraterrestrial beings. The Mayans believed that their architecture allowed them to harness energy that could be used to heal, transport, and communicate over long distances. According to the episode, this knowledge may have come from outside our planet by beings with superior intellect.

Further, the show argues that the Egyptians were skilled in metallurgy and magnetism to such an extent that it is unlikely they could have learned it on their own. The episode delves into the legend of Thoth and the knowledge and tools he brought to the Egyptian civilization. The episode suggests that Thoth may have been an alien who came to share his knowledge, which helped the Egyptians create advanced machinery and devices, such as flying vehicles and weapons. The episode further delves into the idea that ancient Egyptians may have had contact with extraterrestrial beings and may have even been in communication with them.

Throughout the episode, viewers are treated with a wide range of evidence, including myths, legends, and artifacts that seem to point towards the possibility of ancient people creating prototypes based on the knowledge they gained from extraterrestrial beings. For example, viewers are shown evidence of advanced machines, such as the Baghdad battery, a device that may have been used to store electricity in ancient times. Additionally, the episode sheds light on an ancient device that has been found in the Mediterranean that appears to function as a computer. The device seems to indicate that ancient people were skilled in mechanics and that they possessed knowledge of celestial mechanics, which allowed them to navigate the seas using the stars.

Towards the end of the episode, viewers are presented with a fascinating fact that looms large over the exploration of extraterrestrial life. The show notes that humans have been sending signals into space for more than a century, hoping to make contact with intelligent beings from other civilizations. However, if there are extraterrestrial civilizations who've been doing the same thing, they may have abandoned radio-wave communication a long time ago, in search of something more sophisticated. The episode ends with a thought-provoking and open-ended question, "Have we outgrown our ancient prototypes, or are we just about to create new ones?"

Overall, Ancient Aliens season 11 episode 10 is an exciting and fascinating exploration of ancient technology, artifacts, and legends that suggest the existence of extraterrestrial beings and their influence on human history. The episode presents evidence that supports the idea that humans may have created prototypes based on the knowledge they gained from such beings. It raises thought-provoking questions about the possibility of contact with other civilizations, and the nature of communication with cultures whose technology and intellect may be light-years ahead of our own.
