Studies have shown that up to 70% of all UFO sightings happen in so-called 'hotspots' where reports of visions, mysterious lights and unusual phenomena are regularly witnessed--and not only in modern times, but dating back thousands of years. Could there be something about these locations that attracts extraterrestrial visitors?
Al-Aziziyah
Libya · Ancient Libyan/Roman
Ancient Aliens may reference Al-Aziziyah's extreme heat location as a hotspot for unusual phenomena or potential alien activity related to energy collection or monitoring. The site's geographic characteristics are proposed as significant to extraterrestrial interests.
Callanish Stones
United Kingdom · Neolithic British
Ancient Aliens suggests the Callanish Stones were erected as alien markers or navigation points for extraterrestrial visitors. The precise geometric alignment and astronomical properties are attributed to advanced alien knowledge rather than human engineering.
Skara Brae
United Kingdom · Neolithic British
Ancient Aliens suggests Skara Brae's advanced stone architecture and mysterious abandonment indicate possible extraterrestrial involvement or influence on early human development. The show questions the sophistication of this Neolithic settlement and its unexplained sudden desertion.
