}}Jason Colavito (born 1981) is an American author. Colavito has written a number of books, including The Cult of Alien Gods (2005), Knowing Fear (2007), and Jason and the Argonauts Through the Ages (2014). His work has also appeared in Skeptic magazine.[1][2][3][4][5]

Biography

Colavito attended Auburn High School, in Auburn, New York and graduated summa cum laude from Ithaca College in Ithaca, New York where he received a bachelor of arts degree in anthropology and journalism in 2003.[2][6]

In the spring of 2002, Colavito and two of his classmates from a television journalism class at Ithaca College interviewed ancient astronaut theorist Giorgio A. Tsoukalos in the living room of Tsoukalos's Ithaca home.[7]

Colavito's work has largely focused on debunking "alternative archaeology"[1] through his website Lost Civilizations Uncovered, his newsletter The Skeptical Xenoarchaeologist, books and the media. His work has been cited in The Huffington Post[8][9] and on the History Channel.[2][10]

In 2005, Colavito authored H. P. Lovecraft and Extraterrestrial Pop Culture, published by Prometheus Books. In the book, Colavito explores the influences of H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos on the popular works of Erich von Däniken (author of Chariots of the Gods?) and Graham Hancock, as well as its overall influence on "extraterrestrial pop culture".[11] Through his website, Colavito also offers out-of-print works about alternative history, the occult, and speculative fiction.[12]
