Historians, archaeologists and experts have presented us with a consensus view of many of the world''s ancient sites, their construction and their uses. However, mystery still surrounds these places. Questions about their purpose and what occurred there remain to be answered.

SPIRIT TRAVELER takes a unique approach to analysing why famous historic sites, including the Great Pyramids, Stonehenge and Tiwanaku, were constructed. Much of the mystery about them remains unsolved and questions surrounding their purpose have lingered through the centuries.

SPIRIT TRAVELER offers a completely different perspective on the purpose of these sites and the reasons for their construction and is the companion book to the documentary Spirit Traveler which will be released around the same time as the book. In SPIRIT TRAVELER , Sonja discusses eight specific historical sites: Skellig Michael (Ireland), Tiwanaku - The Gate of the Sun (Bolivia), Stonehenge (England), Hagar Qim (Malta), St.

Winifride''s Well (Wales), Chichen ltza and Temple of Kukulcan (Mexico), The Great Khafre Pyramids (Egypt) and the Rock of Cashel (Ireland) and answers the questions that have puzzled historians and archaeologists for hundreds of years: What was the purpose of Stonehenge? How were the Great Pyramids built and why is their particular geometry so significant? Why was Skellig Rock so important to the monks? Have our beliefs about these great sites been wrong all along? Is their importance something other than what we have always thought? Sonja Grace''s discoveries shine a whole new light on our historical understanding of these places and on their relationships to the Earth.
