Philip Coppens

Philip Coppens started his career as an investigative journalist. In 1995, he established Frontier Magazine (formerly Frontier 2000 ) together with Herman Hegge, a newsstand magazine in the Netherlands and Belgium, creating a series of scoops such as confirmation of the existence of pyramids in China. These and other often groundbreaking articles have resulted in a series of articles appearing in various magazines ( Fortean Times , NEXUS, Hera, Fenix, Mysterien, New Dawn, Atlantis Rising, Ancient American, Paranoia Magazine, etc.), as well as appearances on television, including Edge TV's Gardiners World. In 1999, he was the principal researcher for Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince's The Stargate Conspiracy, which investigated current politician's apparent obsession with ancient Egypt.

He is the author of
- The Stone Puzzle of Rosslyn Chapel (2002), on the enigmatic Scottish chapel and its relationship with freemasonry and the Knights Templar;
- The Canopus Revelation (2004), on the lore of the star Canopus in ancient cultures; - Land of the Gods (2007), on the prehistory of Southern Scotland and the myth of King Arthur;
- The New Pyramid Age (2007), detailing the most recent discoveries that have changed our understanding of pyramids;
- Servants of the Grail (2009), identifying the real people encoded into the medieval Grail legends.

Since 1995, he has also extensively lectured across the world.

In 2008, he organised the Histories & Mysteries Conference in Edinburgh , which included the first public display of the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull, receiving blanket media coverage for the event in the UK.
