is known as the real-life Indiana Jones to the
many fans. He is a captivating speaker and the author or co-author of
over 15 books. David has travelled the world several times over, seeking adventure
and the answers to the mysteries of mankindıs past.
Born in France in 1957 and raised in the mountains of Colorado and Montana,
Davidıs curiosity about the world was piqued at a young age. He attended the
University of Montana where his studies in oriental culture and philosophy led
him to a job teaching English in Taiwan. In 1976, David left the United States
on what would become a six- year research and adventure odyssey. During this
time, he studied first-hand the ancient civilizations of Africa, the Middle East
and China, sometimes journeying into dangerous territory along the way (such as
in
Uganda during the overthrow of Idi Amin).
By 1984, Childress had written two books about his journeys, Lost Cities of
Africa and Arabia and Lost Cities of China, Central Asia and India. Further
expeditions to South America in the 1980s resulted in Lost Cities and Ancient
Mysteries of South America, which became a top-ten seller in Brazil. Childress
has continued his global research and has rounded out his series with Lost
Cities of Ancient Lemuria & the Pacific; Lost Cities of North and Central
America; Lost Cities of Atlantis, Ancient Europe & the Mediterranean; Ancient
Tonga & the Lost City of Mu and Ancient Micronesia & the Lost City of Nan Madol. His style is an entertaining blend of personal experience and
well-researched fact, and these books present fascinating information on the
advanced technology and anomalous architecture of our predecessors around the
globe.
David has a wide range of interests, and is a recognized expert not only on
ancient civilizations and technology, but also on free energy, anti-gravity and
UFOs. His books on these subjects include: The Anti-Gravity Handbook;
Anti-Gravity & the World Grid; Anti-Gravity and the Unified Field;
Extraterrestrial Archaeology; Vimana Aircraft of Ancient India & Atlantis; The
Free-Energy Device Handbook and Man-Made UFOs 1944- 1994. His more
recent efforts include A Hitchhikerıs Guide to Armageddon and Atlantis and the Power System of the
Gods.
After more than 20 years of investigating these arcane subjects, David finds
his unique views and ideas gaining popularity. He has appeared on Fox-TVıs
Sightings & Encounters, two NBC-TV specials, The Conspiracy Zone, and segments
for the Discovery Channel, A&E, and the History Channel. He is also a frequent
guest on nationally syndicated radio shows. He continues to explore, write and
excite people about discovery through his magazine,
World Explorer, and his
publishing company,
Adventures Unlimited Press.
David's talk will be on the
subject of Atlantis and the Power System
of the Gods. This is a different subject
from his talk at the Megalithamania Conference.
