NARRATOR: Nag Hammadi,
Egypt, December 1945--
a farmer discovers a sealed
earthenware jar containing
13 leather-bound papyrus books.
These books now known as
the Nag Hammadi codices
were written by the
early Christians
known as Gnostics in the
first several centuries AD.
These mysterious texts
contain the gospels
of Thomas and Phillip, as
well as other previously
unknown secret gospels.
Mixed in with the
religious writings
are poems, instructions
for mystical practice,
and a description of the
origin of the universe.
NICK REDFERN: That shed
a great deal of light
on early religious
issues, biblical texts,
and biblical history.
But they made a
mention of a very
mysterious race of
creatures that have
become known as the archons.
We don't really know what
the archons were or even are.
What's interesting is
that there is actually
a depiction and a
description of the archons
looking definitively reptilian.
DAVID ICKE: They're
very robot-like,
very machine-like and
therefore, very predictable.
And given that you see the
machine-like nature of so many
reptilian animals and what
have you in the human society,
there is a correlation
between the two
and why the reptilian
form is so common,
an expression of this
machine-like, unemotional,
computer-like mentality.
NARRATOR: Is it possible the
stories of the archons really
are describing reptilian
humanoid beings?
And might our own so-called
reptilian traits really
be the product of
alien engineering?
 People focus on the Garden
of Eden story in the Bible
as if it's a one off.
Look around the world, and
you'll find similar stories
on a similar theme.
It seems to be talking about
when humans were created,
Adam and Eve.
I would strongly
suggest from my research
that actually it's not
talking about that at all.
It's talking about
the point when
human genetics were
interfered with
and genetically manipulated.
And so humans became,
at that point,
themselves a hybrid which
had a great infusion,
I would suggest, of
what I would call
archon genetics,
symbolically the serpent
in the Garden of Eden.
MAN: And one suggestion
is that the whole idea
of the Garden of
Eden was nothing
else but some type of a lab--
a lab that was run by
extraterrestrials in which
we were ultimately created.
NARRATOR: Are
human beings really
the product of
genetic manipulation
by extraterrestrial visitors?
And were our ancestors some
form of reptilian human hybrid?
Many ancient astronaut
theorists say yes.
And they believe that reptilian
humanoids, not only existed
on our planet tens of
thousands of years ago,
but that they are alive and
well and living among us
to this day.
