Z. Sitchin only examined part of the evidence to work with, plus he passed on before more recent additions came along.Z. Sitchin did portray alien visitations a entirely self serving
which would seem plausible, i really can't think of any good reason to travel the galaxy just to visit a race of Neanderthals..

He was about 75% correct, but made a few major errors.
My Geminga Scenario thread here at USMB builds upon his and other's work.
I posit that most, not all, of ETs here(Solar System/Earth) arrived here hundreds of thousands of years ago as part of a larger inter-stellar exploration & colonization program. Originating from a cluster of earlier and more advanced star-planet systems, that out expansion was full sphere in directions.
Unfortunately, about 300-330,000 years ago, a major star in the Home Worlds cluster went SuperNova and destroyed most of those home world planets. Isolating the many outer colonies to their own resources. That blast was likely more than 50 light years distant, possibly in the range of 150-200 light years. The star that went supernova is now the pulsar Geminga and scooted across space to a different location from where it started.
The colony here at Sol/Earth/Mars/Etc. was initially isolated and on it's own, so they were starting from scratch with limited resources. This required a larger population base as well as more economy and industry than they came here with. So the solution they settled on was genetic manipulate a native hominid species, accelerate it's evolutionary track, a few other tweaks and hence we homo-sapiens-sapiens are that product.
Next was to get the humans on a civilization and technology development track. Ironically, a study of history shows that warfare is a great accelerator of technology so they (Anunnaki) have manipulated our species on that track, trying to get us built up to the level of their lost Home Worlds.
In recent centuries some of the other nearby "Gemingian" colonies have established contact and 'trade' with our Anunnaki, hence the source of variety of 'UFO' craft and their operators.
It's also probable some of the conflict that may have resulted in that long ago supernova continue, have been renewed.
As I said, more detain, sources, "evidence" etc. in the Geminga Scenario thread, in History subforum.
