Personaly I believe human beings have been around for a great deal longer than the current evolutionary model suggests, Forbidden Archaelogy is one of my favourite books, it caused quite a stir in the science community in the 90s as did the documentary "Mysterious Origins Of Man" which was based on the material in the book.
Since there have been many debunkers coming forward to protect thier beliefs. Some have merit but most fall flat IMO.
So I'm thinking not alien but a previously advanced human civillization.
Here's the documentary.

Its so easy to try to debunk things when people say stupid things along with the stuff that make sense to a degree. The video is good up until the end where he essentially claims that we are talking about Atlantis, a civilization that where "in many ways more technologically advanced than we are today".
Yeah right.

I find it laughable that the general opinion is that ancient people considered the earth to be flat. Simply not true.

You're right. Its not true that ancient people considered the world to be flat. Both the Egyptians and Greeks knew this, in particular Plato himself.
There is no interpretation required to Platos Atlantis. He is NOT talking about a magical things and he is NOT talking about anything more advanced than ancient Greek. This is FACT. He is talking about an "ideal" ancient society of great riches that fell because of just this. But that's it.
Even if there would have been a civilization rivaling ours some time in the past, its not what Plato is talking about: Its not Atlantis.

I'm not arguing that it is, but you seem to cast it aside so easily. On a planet that's billions of years old and living in a civilization that's only 6000 years old, I find it odd that people discount prior civilizations so quickly.
Particular attention should be paid to the final conclusion reached by the Moscow institute. Report No. 18/485 states that the age of the deposits and the results of the tests give a very low probability to the assumption that the origin of these unusual, thread-shaped tungsten crystals is of a technogenic cosmic nature, due to the rocket take-off route from the Plesetsk space-station over the polar part of the Ural region.
In plain language: these objects cannot have originated from earlier test rockets or similar fired from Plesetsk. The key word of the report comes finally to the point: The data obtained allow the possibility of an
extra-terrestrial technogenic origin.
