Beak of the Turtle

by Thomas Settimi

They came from the stars—from a place in the night sky known to the ancients as the Beak of the Turtle. They came to earth in search of their roots and found a civilization that had just begun to stir.

Many alliances were forged with the early people of earth, yet the Visitors encountered hostility from a few—those with iniquity in their hearts, driven by envy and jealousy.

This is the story of ancient aliens and the quest of modern day investigators to find and interpret the evidence they left behind 4,600 years ago.
