Actually now that it's been mentioned, Chariots of the Gods is a non-fiction research into the paranormal and mysteries of the past--specifically with the technological advances of ancient cultures: the Egyptians, the Celtics, Chinese. Then how various mysteries can only be solved by some kind of alien presence. It described the construction of the pyramids, the extremely accurate star charts inside the pyramids, and even the map of our solar system that included not only the planet Pluto (which wasn't even discovered till the 1930's because it is impossible to see from Earth with the naked eye!) but also another planet that was distanced from the representation of the system, where certain gods came from. If you have seen the movie Stargate, Roland Emmerich was inspired by that book to create the movie. It was real interesting to read about how all these ancient cultures knew certain things about our universe that could not have possibly been known without the aid of modern technology.
The reason why Crxforum's post reminded me of this, the God's that the Egyptian's described from this distanced 10th planet "Heaven" were 8 to 10 feet tall. Now you may say that that isn't unusual since diafication usually requires the god to be have enlarged proportion, but these gods were all sitting. Usually a commanding god in the Egyptian depiction stand above their worshipors. Thesem their feet and eyes met those of the Egyptians in the glyphs, even though they [the Gods] were sitting.
