Interpreting The Lost Archives of Phlacknoktinok

They’re not human, not even humanoid 
These creatures' presence in our archeological history 
Once considered a naturally occurring phenomenon 
But only recently discovered otherwise 
And were only hinted at by geologist nuts 
Who believed Fairies had inscribed 
These strange triangles on the surface of Quartz crystals
Not too far from the truth ... 
After careful scrutiny, famed archeologist, Dr. Carol Lewis, PhD  
Has made her announcement in "The Scientific Journal, Vol. MMMCLXXIII, 
Unclassified Documents, (May 2035), Article: Interpretation of the Mysterious Triangles on Quartz Crystals”, pages 74-78, 94, and 96.
Dr. Lewis has proclaimed that her deciphering has uncovered 
An ancient civilization, that after carbon dating 
Existed more than 2.5 billion years ago 
A time before Man, before dinosaurs, before time ...  

                               The following is an excerpt of her work: 

                               THE LOST ARHIVES OF PHLACKNOKTINOK 

                               DURING ECLIPSE (OF) *undecipherable* BIG NEWS   
                               SOFT ROCK ONES SLIP (THROUGHOUT) TIME 
                               (IN) MIRROR SHELLED CRAFT (TO) GLIMPSE 
                               REFRACTION (OF) *undecipherable* BENDING 
                               CONTACT SUCCESSFUL. FACE (TO) FACE INEVITABLE. 
                               FLOW (WITH THE) LIGHT. 

                                               - Presumably the author's signature and date

Meanwhile, we have made numerous attempts to contact Dr.Lewis
for any comments on her article but she has mysteriously gone missing ...

Most likely into the far regions of The Twilight Zone.
