When these relate to the past, they are fantastic archaeology , to use Stephen William's term, or cult archaeology , if you like John Cole's term better. When they attach religious beliefs attacking evolution or using scientific evidence to promote a religious belief in creation, they are called creationism . The purpose of this web site it to provide non-specialists with the tools to understand and evaluate cult archaeology and related materials. The site contains numerous links to sites that both promote and debunk cult archaeology claims. We take a broad view of what might be included here.
Topics range from parapsychology to UFOs to cryptozoology to ancient astronauts and far beyond.
We promise you a wild, but educational, ride. Presented as a joint project of Larry J. Zimmerman, Anthropology , University of Iowa and Richard A. Fox, Jr, Anthropology , University of South Dakota.
