它们会重新出现， 并揭示出人类过去和末来的秘密……
九十年代， 英国的两个电视制片人果然在中美丛林的古庙废墟中，找到了一个精美绝伦的水晶头骨，
他们追踪调查，终于发现十三个水晶头骨已全部现世，每一个头骨都来历不凡且具有不可理喻的一些灵异表现。
这一发现和金字塔上的狮身人面像一样神秘莫测，引起全球考古学界的一场激烈论战……
本书是关于这一发现探索过程的真实全纪录，作者摄制的同名电视纪录片已在英国BBC及欧美各大电视网播映，引起举世瞩目。

"The Mystery of the Crystal Skulls" is the definitive guide to the facts and legends that inspired the May 2008 movie Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.It explores what these mysterious crystal skulls are, where they came from, and what they may have to offer.
The book follows Chris Morton and Ceri Louise Thomas on their journey of discovery from the ancient temples of the Maya to the British Museum, the Smithsonian, and to the crystal laboratories of Hewlett-Packard, where scientific tests on one of the skulls--made from the same quartz crystal used in today’s computers--lead to the conclusion, “This skull shouldn’t even exist.”
Their journey also leads to Native shamans and elders who reveal the sacred knowledge and vital information that these skulls hold about coming Earth changes and humanity’s imminent destiny.

The Mystery Of The Crystal Skulls - Book Excerpts:

Page 2
According to an old Native American legend, there are 13 ancient crystal skulls, the size of human skulls, with moveable jaws, that are said to speak or sing. These skulls are said to contain important information about the origins, purpose and destiny of mankind and answers to some of the greatest mysteries of life and the universe. It is said that this information is not only important to the future of this planet, but vital to the very survival of the human race. According to these ancient teachings, one day all of the crystal skulls will be rediscovered and brought together for their collective wisdom to be made available, but the human race must first be sufficiently evolved, both morally and spiritually, so as not to abuse this great knowledge.
Page 50
Only since the beginning of the twentieth century have scientists begun to harness the incredible power of quartz crystal. So how was it that our 'simple' and 'primitive' ancestors had known to make the skull from precisely this type of material? Was it mere coincidence or could it be that they knew something we didn't?
Could it be that the crystal skull really was some sort of store of information, just as the ancient legend had said? Could it really contain an important message from our ancestors? At first, this seemed very far-fetched. It was almost unbelievable that a simple lump of rock could contain the great secrets of our forefathers from way back in the mists of time, But, despite our initial skepticism, after our trop to Hewlet-Packard we began to take this idea more seriously.
Page 52
In the case of the computer we have managed to work out a way of inputting and retrieving the information 'stored within it' through the process of electronics. But what if any information inside a crystal skull? We may not yet know the correct way to input and retrieve any information stored within it, but that does not necessarily mean that the information is not there. The analogy that comes to mind is of a Stone Age man or woman finding a computer and being told that it contains great knowledge and information. Without the necessary understanding of electronics and the appropriate passwords and commands, they would simply not believe it. Could we be in a similar situation with the crystal skulls? It may be that the information they contain is in a form that we simply do not yet comprehend. For it is only when we are able to interact properly with any information storage system that the knowledge stored within it comes into a form of existence that we can understand.
