Puabi's Genome and the Nibiru Debate: Sitchin's Ancient-Astronaut Claims Meet Scientific Skepticism

To the point

Zecharia Sitchin argues a Sumerian seal points to Nibiru and other planets and that Nin Puabi’s ancient DNA could reveal gods, a claim Michael Heiser and other critics reject since no alien DNA is known, and any testing would require a formal project, inviting reader input.

Looking for alien DNA

Fringe theorist Zecharia Sitchin contends that a star-shaped symbol on a Sumerian seal points to the sun, moon, and 10 planets including Nibiru and its inhabitants who allegedly altered the human genome, and he challenges scientists to DNA-test the 4,500-year-old remains of Queen Puabi to see if her genome reveals the gods or demigod lineage, a proposal mainstream experts reject as misreading and critics say cannot prove alien DNA, while the Natural History Museum notes that such analysis would require a formal project and a recognized researcher, leaving the matter as a debate at the intersection of mythology, biblical history, and ancient history rather than definitive science.
