The concept of “Anunnaki DNA” is a pseudoscientific idea from theories, most prominently promoted by Zecharia Sitchin, that ancient extraterrestrials called the Anunnaki genetically engineered humans by merging their DNA with that of early hominids. Proponents of this idea claim that it explains human origins, intelligence, and “unused” parts of our DNA. This concept is not supported by scientific or archaeological evidence; in reality, human evolution is understood through scientific research, such as the analysis of ancient DNA that reveals human adaptation over time.
This video explains the Anunnaki creation theory:
Claims from the theory
- Genetic engineering: Proponents suggest the Anunnaki used their DNA to create Homo sapiens as a workforce to mine gold, a claim detailed in books like DNA of the Gods.
- Dormant DNA: It is theorized that the Anunnaki “inactivated” advanced parts of their DNA in humans to make them more manageable, which is sometimes used to “explain” why only a small percentage of human DNA appears to be “active”.
- Adam and Eve story: The creation of Adam and Eve is interpreted as a specific genetic engineering event where the Anunnaki inserted their DNA into the first humans.
Scientific perspective
- Human evolution: The scientific consensus is that humans evolved over millions of years through natural selection.
- Ancient DNA evidence: Studies of ancient DNA show that humans have adapted to new environments over time through genetic changes, not through genetic engineering by a specific ancient race.
- Neanderthal DNA: Research shows modern humans have inherited a small percentage of DNA from other hominin groups, such as Neanderthals, through interbreeding.
- Lack of evidence: There is no archaeological or genetic evidence to support the existence of the Anunnaki or their role in creating humanity. The “unused” portion of DNA is a complex area of genetics, but it is a subject of ongoing scientific research, not evidence of alien manipulation.

The Anunnaki, also known as “those who descended from heaven,” stand as the most potent deities within the pantheon of ancient civilizations such as the Sumerians, Akkadians, Assyrians, and Babylonians who thrived in the historical region of Mesopotamia, now encompassing modern Iran and Iraq. For the Sumerians, the Anunnaki held the ultimate authority over their destinies, and these gods were revered as the offspring of Earth and sky. Some scholars posit the potential existence of the Anunnaki. Within Sumerian literature, Enlil and Enki, along with their progenitor An, the deity of the heavens, constituted a trinity governing the universe, the sky, and the Earth in unison. They also wielded individual immense powers, serving as patrons for their respective cities. In the ancient Mesopotamian epic “Atrahasis,” detailing the Great Flood, Enki played a pivotal role in the creation of humankind, designed to serve the gods.
