Trained as an engineer and employed in the energy industry, E. A. James Swagger sought out the megalithic monuments of western Europe in his spare time traveling around the UK, Ireland, and Denmark. His embrace of a multdisciplinary approach to the research of sites, and the larger view of grave passage cosmology produced his first book, "The Newgrange Sirius Mystery: Linking Passage Grave Cosmology With Dogon Symbology".

Newgrange is considered the most complex megalithic site in the world. It is Ireland’s most visited monument with around 250,000 visitor’s a year. This book delves into the astroarchaeology of Newgrange and the Boyne valley alongside the Loughcrew and Carrowkeel cemeteries with stunning revelations. This book is packed with brand new research and evidence suggests Newgrange was aligned also to Sirius as a crude precessional calculator. Newgrange it seems was the pinnacle of a theme of passage grave cosmology running throughout Ireland.

The show is a "primer" for anyone not familiar with passage graves, megalithic culture, and the broader implications of these sites, which appear to have been the product of an ancient migration of advanced, cosmologically aware people. Were these sites merely "crude time pieces", or do they point to something far more complex? We find out in 90 minutes with James Swagger.
