William Scott-Elliot bol spisovateľ, ktorý rozvinul teórie Heleny Blavatskej o koreňových rasách. Jeho dielo sa ponára do mýtických dejín stratených civilizácií, skúmajúc ich vývoj a konečné zmiznutie. Scott-Elliotov prínos ponúka jedinečný pohľad na ezoterické tradície a staroveké záhady, čím pozýva čitateľov zamyslieť sa nad alternatívnymi rozprávaniami o pôvode ľudstva.
