* What if the legendary Ur-Text - one of the greatest alchemical treasures said to be capable of transforming the very fabric of reality - was actually a detailed diagram of the 'Code of Life', this originally being capable of biologically transforming all living things? * What is the true historical significance of the Garden of Eden allegory described in the Book of Genesis? And what exactly is the full story behind the 'Fall of Humankind', beginning with Adam and Eve and ending with the Great Flood? * What if ancient "magic" was actually a primitive understanding of advanced technology, in accordance with Clarke's Law which says: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic"? * What if we have discovered the skeletal remains of the Sons of God (Bene Elohim) in the fossil record? And what if the Sons of God were identical with the immortal deities of ancient myth? * What if the greatest scientist in history was actually a real-life Albus Dumbledore spending more time studying about the Philosopher's Stone and alchemy than classical physics and chemistry? * What if the Apocalypse is actually a cyclical cataclysm punctuating each "world age" with a worldwide inferno and/or a global superflood? * What if cutting-edge quantum theory and ancient mysticism are two different descriptions of the same structural phenomenon underlying the cosmos? Prisca Sapientia is a paradigm shift in alternative history - a new alternative history that seeks out the most plausible scenarios utilizing Occam's Razor whenever possible, this ultimately leading to a reevaluation of ancient myths in accordance with Clarke's Law and a wide-ranging exploration of the forgotten chapters of history, including the beginning chapters of the Book of Genesis.
