Biglino, Mauro

TL;DR Claim(s) to Fame

  • Italian author known for controversial reinterpretations of biblical/ancient texts
  • Promotes readings that align with ancient-astronaut style narratives
  • Influential in European alternative-history and UFO-adjacent communities
  • Argues translation choices can conceal “literal” technological meanings
  • Strongly contested by mainstream scholarship

Introduction

Mauro Biglino is an Italian author whose work is often discussed in alternative-history and ancient-astronaut circles that overlap with ufology. He is not a UFO case investigator; his relevance comes from providing textual arguments that can be used to support “ancient non-human influence” narratives. In the ecosystem of UFO belief, that kind of claim supplies historical depth and mythic framing.

Background

Biglino’s public identity is anchored in translation and interpretation disputes—arguing that conventional renderings of ancient texts are shaped by theological assumptions. This stance appeals to audiences who suspect institutions have edited reality and who prefer “literalist” reinterpretations. That cultural posture overlaps strongly with disclosure-era ufology suspicion of official narratives.

Ufology career

Biglino is UFO-adjacent through ancient-astronaut culture. His work often functions as “support material” for theories suggesting advanced beings interacted with humans in antiquity. In practice, his influence spreads through lectures, online communities, and content creators who treat ancient texts as evidence.

Early work (Year–Year)

2000s–2010s: Rose in visibility as internet-era alternative-history communities expanded. This era allowed niche translation disputes to become mass conversation topics through viral clips, forums, and cross-language sharing.

Prominence (Year–Year)

2010s: Became a significant name in Italian and European alternative-history circuits. His prominence reflects modern media dynamics: a clear provocative thesis plus repeatable soundbites spreads quickly.

Later work (Year–Year)

2010s–present: Continues publishing and speaking, with his ideas circulating widely in communities that blend UFO belief, ancient-astronaut narratives, and anti-establishment skepticism.

Major contributions

Biglino contributes a “text-first” argument structure: that the evidence is already in ancient documents if you translate them “correctly.” This supplies UFO-adjacent communities with a kind of rhetorical legitimacy—“we’re not guessing, we’re reading the sources.” Whether valid or not, it is a powerful persuasion tool in the belief ecosystem.

Notable cases

Not case-based. The “notable” element is a thesis: reinterpretation of ancient texts in ways that support non-human or technological readings.

Views and hypotheses

His work generally argues that ancient descriptions traditionally treated as divine or metaphorical can be read as literal accounts of powerful beings and events. This aligns naturally with ancient-astronaut interpretations and with UFO narratives that propose long-term non-human presence.

Criticism and controversies (if notable)

Mainstream scholars dispute methodology, linguistic claims, and the leap from translation to technological conclusion. Supporters argue that institutional bias and tradition have shaped “approved” meanings. The controversy is essentially about who gets authority over ancient texts and what standards count as scholarship.

Media and influence

Biglino’s influence travels through alternative-history media, conference circuits, and online content ecosystems. He functions as an “idea supplier” for creators who link ancient history to UFO narratives.

Selected works

He is known for multiple books and talks cataloged in public biographies and publishing listings, typically centered on biblical reinterpretation themes.

Legacy

Biglino’s legacy is as a modern European voice in ancient-astronaut-adjacent thought—important because he provides “source text” rhetoric for UFO-adjacent claims about antiquity.
