Publisher's summary

An investigation into the historical and archaeological evidence of demons, curses, and possession, featuring some of the most gruesome artifacts and sites ever discovered

Demons, jinn, possession, sinister artifacts, and gruesome archaeological discoveries haunt this new book by Dr. Heather Lynn. Evil Archaeology investigates the archaeological record for artifacts and evidence of evil entities, revealing how demons from the ancient world may be dwelling among us. It also looks at the history and lore behind real relics believed to be haunted and includes historical accounts of demonic possession that go as far back as King Solomon invoking demons to help him build his famed temple.

Is there really a prehistoric fertility goddess figure that has been known to bring death to the families of anyone who holds it? Are there real vampire graveyards? Can the archaeological record prove the existence of demons and malevolent entities?

Some tantalizing questions Evil Archaeology addresses include:

  • What is the origin of demons?
  • What role did Sumerian demons play in the development of civilization?
  • Are curses real?
  • Can material objects contain evil? What about places?
  • What can we do to protect ourselves, according to historical records?
  • Was Jesus an exorcist?

Interesting but not as advertised

Interesting book about all sorts of spooky, occult type stuff, not fully about evil archeology artifacts.

Overall very interesting with cool facts

A lot of this was actually really interesting and included a lot of facts. My only wish is that some had a few more stories to go with them.

Fascinating

I enjoyed this book thoroughly. Explained the orgins of Evil and where it comes from. Our distant past. Believe it or not. I also like the fact that it showed how to protect yourself from the Evil around us all in our everyday lives. 🙏

Worth reading, very interesting!

Loved the first half, the last half, while still very interesting, lacked the depth of the first. I wonder if the author and to pull back from the dark subject matter for her own well being.

Overall, worth the listen

The narrator is very dry and boring, but overall it's worth the listen. I wish some of the stories went a little more in depth though.

Excellent information

The author mixes her experience and her knowledge with written accounts from others in the field as well as with interviews with living humans. I see many negative reviews. I belueve these are sponsored by people who don't live with an open mind or that just don't care for this author. I have heard her on cost to cost and fade to black radio with Jimmy Church. She is genuine and knowledgeable. If you don't have the credentials and schooling as this author it's your opinion she is wrong. When dealing with facts as she presents them I find it difficult to say that she's foolish or unknowledgeable.

In the end, reaches a bit too wide.

I found the overall topic extremely interesting. It is filled with less discussed topics highlighted by the author's professional illumination, research and focus of detail. This was the majority of the book and I enjoyed it very much.

However, the author then went off onto the connecting roads of ghost reports, haunted locations, and psychiatric symptoms, evaluation and treatment / resources. This caused me a couple issues. First, the author although well referenced, was no longer able to speak as an expert and you could hear it. Two, theses topics were very high-level and felt more fluff to fill the pages and less deeply researched. The examples given were rather basic which was in strong contrast to her examples of the archeological literature.

The author did an excellent job as the reader.

Overall, there were parts of this book that sparkled and perhaps, as least for me, the rest of it could have as well should the book have maintained a narrowed scope.
