Root Races

The greatest historical story never told

15 October, 2022
Delve into the theosophical works of the early 20th century and there are various references to 'root races'. Up to fifteen different types of sentient human beings are proposed to have coexisted in the earliest of times. As with much of the fringe anthropological theories, some of the abject xenophobia found in theosophy can be difficult to reconcile. However there still remains a very distinct reality that in the relatively recent past, the planet was certainly populated by quite radically different groups of hominins.
