I've been analyzing the original Sumerian legends regarding the Anunnaki for a visual archive project, and the more I dig, the more I find a massive split between "History" and "Theory" that I want to discuss here.
We all know the popular theory: Aliens came to Earth, needed gold, and spliced their DNA with apes to make us. But does the actual evidence hold up?
Here is what I found when comparing the texts (like Atrahasis) with the theories:
- Who are they really?
The Text: The term Anunnaki translates to "Princely Offspring" or "Seed of the Prince". They were described as deities, descendants of An (Sky) and Ki (Earth), whose function was to decree fate.
The Theory: Zecharia Sitchin claimed they were biological extraterrestrials from Nibiru who set up a base of operations 500,000 years ago.
- Why create Humans? (The Darkest Part) This is where both the "God" version and the "Alien" version agree on something terrifying: We were not created out of love.
The ancient texts describe a labor crisis. The younger gods (Igigi) rebelled against the hard labor.
To stop the revolt, Enki created humans specifically to replace the gods as workers.
Sitchin interprets this as genetic engineering—specifically in vitro fertilization—to create a "slave species".
- Are they still here?
The texts say they determine the fates of humanity. Some texts even place them as judges in the Underworld, weighing the souls of the dead.
This suggests a spiritual or inter-dimensional role, not just flesh-and-blood astronauts mining rocks.
My Question: If the "Slave Species" origin story is just a myth, why does it align so uncomfortably well with the "Missing Link" in human evolution?
Do you think the Anunnaki were actual geneticists who jump-started civilization, or are they just ancient metaphors for the forces of nature that we simply don't understand yet?
I tried to visualize this "Creation Event" and the timeline of their arrival in my latest video investigation (EP1).

The evidence doesn’t hold up when there isn’t any evidence in the first place.
>Â We all know the popular theory: Aliens came to Earth, needed gold, and spliced their DNA with apes to make us. But does the actual evidence hold up?
Bro what
Idk if you know this but there is another theory that has a LOT of evidence. It is called the theory of evolution
There isnt really a missing link. Its an old fashioned way to explain when we transitioned from ape to hominid. It was a gradual process that can’t be fully recorded in the fossil record. The missing link was a rationalization of religion with science. Stichin took a cursory read of the ancient Sumerian creation story and wrote ufo books on it.

Speak for yourself, the first time I heard the part about gold was yesterday.
Also, if they really spliced their DNA with primate DNA to make humans, shouldn’t we be able to find evidence of that in our genomes?

That’s truly unfortunate.
The “missing link” idea is an outdated concept that implies that evolution is linear, which isn’t true. Evolution doesn’t work in a linear fashion, it’s far more complex and forms many branches.
If the “Slave Species” origin story aligns well with the outdated “missing link” idea, then that’s kinda a nail in its own coffin.
(Also, this theory is incompatible with the theory of evolution, which is supported by mountains of evidence.)
lol gold is super common on a galactic scale and incredibly easier to harvest compared to creating slaves on a planet to dig it up over the years. Like what the heck dude.
At least have the aliens need something relatively rare.
If there was a NHI that created/modified us I do not think it was to mine gold since they proven that there is plenty of it in space. I would be more open to them experimenting to see what they can create like in a lab and then releasing their creation, seeding the earth.
