"Raymond Wiley and KT Prime do a first-class job of telling what is
known about the stones and what is not, revealing and exploring their
mysteries one by one."--Graham Hancock, bestselling author of
Visionary and Fingerprints of the Gods
The Georgia Guidestones are a collection of standing stones near
Elberton, Georgia. Built in 1980, they are primarily composed of six
slabs of granite: one central pillar, four "major" stones that fan out
from the center, and a capstone. The capstone has engravings on all four
of its sides in four ancient languages, all of which read, "Let these be
guidestones to an Age of Reason," when translated. The major stones are
each engraved on both sides, and each side contains text in one of eight
modern languages asserting the same ten guidelines.
Those guidelines have proven extremely controversial, causing
speculation and rumors of conspiracy that go far beyond northeast
Georgia. Conspiracy theorists surmise a global plot on the part of a
group of shadowy men to subjugate and oppress the world's population and
create a "new world order." Others believe that the man behind the
monument was a Rosicrucian and that the stones are representative of
that group's magical manifesto. Some people even believe that it is a
landing site for an alien spacecraft of some kind. At the heart of this
confusion is the missing piece of the puzzle: who was the mystery man
who started the entire chain of events?
