Chapter 15 - “Kingship on Earth”

This last chapter informs of, among other things, what happened after the Deluge. 

According to Sitchin, the Nefilim taught the human survivors of the Flood the “arts of growing crops and cattle” in the “mountains skirting the low-lying plains” east of Sumer (413).

The place was called E.LAM, which literally means ‘house where vegetation germinated’ (414).

Kingship on Earth was also introduced--as “a bridge between the Nefilim “as lords” and the human beings (as still service providers).

A human ruler “would assure Mankind’s service to the gods and channel the teachings and laws of the gods to the people” (415). 

The first ante-diluvial city, Eridu, was also the “first to be rebuilt,” after which the Nefilim “helped the people plan and rebuild the first royal 
city” of the human beings: Kish (416).

Three regions on Earth were allotted to the human beings—what the Old Testament calls as the dwelling places of the three sons of Noah: 


[1] Mesopotamia and the Near Eastern lands -- inhabited by 
     the sons of Shem

[3] Asia Minor, Iran, India, and Europe -- settled by the sons
     of Japheth.

Sumer (in Mesopotamia) would emerge as the first great known human civilization in 3800 B.C.

Second, Egypt (Africa) in 3200 B.C.

Third, the Indus valley (India) in circa 2800 B.C.--a thousand years after the rise of Sumer. 

The three regions shared one language (“the languages are not different” [418]).

But when the human beings constructed the (biblical) Tower of Babel--which, Sitchin writes, was actually a launching pad for spacecraft--the gods, fearing the human capacity for space exploration, confused the builders’ tongues. 

A fourth region, called TIL.MUN (‘the place of the missiles’), was for the exclusive use of the Nefilim. 



(In his second book, Stairway to Heaven, Sitchin would locate Tilmun in the Sinai peninsula and call it the Spaceport of the Gods.)


Towards the end of The 12th Planet's last chapter, Sitchin asks: "Have the Nefilim been encountered since? What will happen when they are encountered again?" 

His last question: "And if the Nefilim were the 'gods' who 'created' Man on Earth, did evolution alone, on the Twelfth Planet, create the Nefilim?"
