Comparative review of the Conservative Academic View and the Sitchin-Student Interpretation of Northern South American history from the late 1400s until the end of the wars of independence in 1825
By Sasha Alex Lessin, Ph.D. (Anthropology, UCLA)
SUMMARY
Conventional-Interpretation: The Spanish period marks the violent incorporation of northern South America into the Spanish Empire, restructuring society through missions, racial hierarchy, extraction economies, and Creole nationalism — culminating in independence.
Sitchin-ite Interpretation: This era represents the takeover of an ancient Andean sacred-gold covenant system once linked to Viracocha/Adad and Ninurta. Spanish rule rebranded and suppressed that ancient knowledge, replacing priestly sky-science with Church-State domination — until independence opened the door for buried memory to resurface.
CHRONOLOGY for VENEZUELA & COLOMBIA (with Ecuador & Peru where relevant)
LATE 1400s–EARLY 1500s: FIRST CONTACT & FOOTHOLDS
VENEZUELA
1498 — Columbus reached the Orinoco delta; Spanish expeditions began probing coastlines and islands. Early encounters shifted rapidly toward slaving raids and forced missionization.
COLOMBIA
Spanish explorers pushed inland from Caribbean coasts, seeking gold (“El Dorado”), meeting chiefdom societies, including the Muisca, on the Bogotá Plateau.
Conventional Perspective: European navigation technology, disease exposure, and military advantage allowed rapid intrusion into indigenous chiefdom networks.
Sitchinite Perspective: Old Viracocha/Ninurta religious still lingered, albeit surreptitiously, in the minds of the Indians. They came to hold their old beliefs lived in gold-ritual cultures like the Muisca, that suddenly collided with the Spanish, who said their religion came “from heaven.” Sitchin-students read this as a new factional takeover, with Church-State rule mimicking earlier Anunnaki-style priest-administration — but now without the gods present.
1520s–1540s: CONQUEST & OVERTHROW OF INDIGENOUS POLITIES
Conventional View: In Venezuela, the Spanish, with German-backed expeditions and Spanish governors, pushed inland against fierce Indian resistance. The Spanish sought gold, slaves, and territory. In the 1530s, in Colombia, Conquistadors defeated the Muisca Confederation, imposed tribute systems, and extracted salt, emeralds, and gold. The Spanish integrated Ecuador into their Integrated northern South American fief. They used the 1532 conquest of the Inca Empire and the infrastructure they developed to run it as a template for seizing Indian nations north of the Inca domains. They forced the Indians to build churches, administrative structures, and to extract and refine gold for them. The gold made the entire world economy subject to Spanish influence.
Anunnaki View: The Spanish corrupted the temple-centered economy we developed, where gold-rendering was the Earthlings’ sacred duty to Anunnaki rulers. Spaniards forced South American Indians to mine gold, which Spain used to buy military equipment, guns, and naval vessels, making it a powerful force among European monarchs. Spain suppressed the ancient Viracocha traditions, burying them beneath Catholic domination and forced conversions.
1540s–1600: COLONIAL FOUNDATIONS & MISSIONS
VENEZUELA: Spanish towns and missions expanded, and Indigenous populations collapsed under disease, slavery, and displacement. The Spaniards imported African slaves to work the gold mines.
COLOMBIA The Spaniards made Bogotá their colonial capital. Encomienda systems and Church missions reorganized land, labor, and belief in Colombia.
CONSERVATIVE SAY: Colonial institutions — Church, encomienda, municipal rule — replaced indigenous governance.
ANUNNAKI THEORISTS SEE these developments as Spanish suppression of Indigenous history and a shift in spiritual practice from Anunnaki-worship to militant Catholicism that priestly cultures that once carried Viracocha/Ninurta star-knowledge and folded into Catholic dogma and syncretism. The Catholics rebadged formerly sacred lakes, sun-shrines, and sky observatories as saints’ sites. The gold-as-sacred-substance tradition survived in hidden folk rites that became coded, whispered, and partially erased.
1600–1700: ECONOMIC CONSOLIDATION & SOCIAL HIERARCHIES
VENEZUELA (History): A plantation economy grows around cacao and ranching. Spanish-born elites dominate; Creoles rise beneath them.
COLOMBIA (History): Mining and hacienda agriculture structure society. Mixed-heritage populations increase.
CONSERVATIVE VIEW: Colonial stratification produces strict racial-legal categories and centralized imperial control.
ANUNNAKI VIEW: DOMINATOR Consciousness locked into place.
What had once been divine-priest astronomical governance becomes racial-economic caste rule, echoing the Enlil-line hierarchies of old — without the balancing presence of Ninmah-oriented partnership ethics.
1700–1808: CREOLE AWAKENING & IMPERIAL DECLINE
VENEZUELA (History):
Economic localism grows. Enlightenment ideas circulate. Local elites begin to contest Spanish authority.
COLOMBIA (History):
Internal revolts and intellectual movements lay the groundwork for independence.
PERU (Context):
Still a central Spanish administrative hub, Peru influences northern political currents and the movement of troops and policy.
CONSERVATIVE VIEW: Imperial weakening + Creole nationalism = rising revolutionary potential.
ANUNNAKI VIEW: THE SHADOW OF THE OLD GODS RE-OPENS.
As Church-State control cracks, ancient territorial memories resurface.
Traditional peoples — keepers of Viracocha’s gold-covenant myth — quietly reshape the symbols of resistance around land, sky, sacred responsibility — and freedom from imposed masters.
1808–1825: WARS OF INDEPENDENCE
VENEZUELA (History):
Simón Bolívar led revolutionary armies; Spanish rule collapsed after prolonged warfare.
COLOMBIA (History): Gran Colombia was formed, briefly uniting Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Panama.
ECUADOR (Link): Joined Gran Colombia before emerging as its own republic.
CONSERVATIVE VIEW: Republican nationalism replaced the empire. New states rose.
ANUNNAKI VIEW: THE HUMAN ERA STRUGGLES TO STAND ALONE.
Political independence does not erase the deep Anunnaki matrix. However, it shifts power from European monarchs to local elites — some of whom still unconsciously reenact dominator templates first modeled in the ancient sky-lord era.
Yet the memory of partnership consciousness — Ninmah’s current — remains alive among indigenous cultures.
