Primary sources to me are far more compelling than second-hand analysis from other people. Let each person look at the evidence and think for themselves.
It is clear from the Roman military history that their invading armies were often not welcomed to new lands. Far from the empire, people in the countryside had been living fully comfortable, contented and joyful lives, practising their ancestral traditions, preserving and improving knowledge about our existence and the purpose of the cosmos through a series of cultural rites which more resembled enlightened university seminars than the hedonistic parties or meaningless rituals of Roman culture.
Archaeological sites like Arkaim, Gobekli Tepe, Stonehenge, and many smaller ones from every continent of the world indicate a detailed knowledge of celestial events. They indicate an profound interest in the natural world. Our ancestors used their time and energy making monuments to record the movement of the planets, the stars, the natural sequence of events and seasons which help us to live effectively on the Earth. There was a purpose to this life - to improve our environment and improve the collective knowledge of humanity, to improve life for every person living on the Earth until such time as it has reached its highest possible perfection.
By these simple structures, the everyday person of the ancient pagan civilisations understood the motion of the Earth, the planets, and cycles of time which animate life, death and life. They understood these natural rhythms far better than the everyday person in our current society today. Then, as now, there were experts who devoted their lives to more advanced questions and delivered their findings to the people.
It is true that today's experts also know the precise moments of the equinoxes, and are equally capable of building aligned structures... but do they? Instead, these experts are determined to pursue fleeting acumen and invisible wealth in the form of a make-believe bank balance, prestigious consumer items, and their name appearing for on computer screens, newspapers, and perhaps text-books. Their structures follow - dilapidated apartment blocks that serve as little more than slave quarters, tangled highways that pollute and strangle the soil.
On the contrary, the consciousness of the ancient pagan civilisations was something like a perpetual dream, constantly aware of galactic events of universal importance, capable of impressive cognitive and imaginative feats. For a first piece of evidence, one must only visit a folk museum to view the standard of handcraft and woodwork that was commonplace in ancient times and compare it with the unskillful craftsmanship on display in any modern art gallery.
These people were constantly nourished by their birthplaces. Trees, shrubs, herbs, flowers, vines, grasses and water courses were carefully designed and tended through seasons and years by their ancestors to complete a living landscape of edible and useful plants. For them, there was nothing so ridiculous as worrying about the next meal, or a secure place to live and raise their own children to continue the energy of life into the future. Everything was provided by the collective effort of thousands of generations.
In colder climates, grains and root vegetables were stored for the winter. On the shortest days there was not much to do anyway, and very little food was required to nourish the people warm and cosy in their earthen and wooden homes.
During warmer months, domesticated animals helped with many of the daily chores, and were also trained to look after themselves. Nothing so ridiculous as walking and feeding the dog - on the contrary, dogs and all other variety of animals would gather food and carry loads for the people themselves. It was their joy to be involved in the people's fun activities.
Even today, it's possible to train all sorts of animals to do all sorts of things. In the past, animals were trained to do useful things, not just meaningless entertainment. And they would automatically teach their children, continuing the process themselves.
When the invading armies came, it was not as simple as replacing the ruler like it is today. Previously there was no ruler - each person was supreme, and equal. They had no interest in nasty, hierarchical culture of violence, shouting and ignorance, that was more focused on building roads, prisons and weapons, than on birthing joyful children or maintaining and improving one's environment.
They had to systematically erase all memory of the old ways of life. Priests trained as missionaries used a variety of ruses to introduce corrupt ideas into the former ways of life, preying on the kind-heartedness and welcoming nature of the civilised countryside people.
Books in many different fields have contributed to this knowledge, but few of them come with the stamp of approval from the scientific establishment. Many are popular anthropological books on tribal cultures, celtic history and the "Ringing Cedars of Russia" books, as well as conversations and ceremonial experiences with scholars from many different traditions and cultures. I continue to correct and refine my image of these pagan civilisations based on feedback from my correspondents.
Obviously we do not have written sources that confirm the information in books that were destroyed. That's why they were destroyed. To this day, the priests' acolytes cackle in delight, asking endlessly for "written proof" of the information in these burnt books. Well sorry, you have to actually think about this one. Look at the available evidence and think for yourself. I've done my best to present some commonly accepted facts and the rational conclusions to be brought from them. Now it's your turn...
