This is a stimulating thread.
Back in 2007 I had a spontaneous "download" of memories come flooding in all at once, in which I remembered past lives (to varying degrees). Since that time, I have remembered another one, and been told of two which I didn't remember, by a medium. I'll describe these briefly, placing them in chronological order (as best I can):
1. I was one of the Clovis people, one of the very early inhabitants of North America (circa 13,000 years ago). Interestingly, it was in the exact location in which I now live, in Central Kentucky.
I remember this life in much more detail than my other lives; I could talk for hours about it. (Edited to add: my constant companion and hunting partner in that life is my best friend and frequent hunting partner in this life.)
2. I was a herder of sheep and goats on a high, treeless limestone plateau during the Neolithic period. I don't remember much about the life itself (other than the constant presence of the smells of rams and billy-goats), but I do recall the landscape quite clearly. It was very green, carpeted with short grass, and there were large outcrops of white limestone everywhere. I suspect that the location might have been Anatolia, although I guess it could have been anywhere from Spain to Central Asia.
3. I was at what we now call Avebury in Britain, when the megalithic structures were used and understood. I was a dancer there, and lived right next to the circle at Avebury (in fact I and my then-wife [who is a friend of mine in this life], also a dancer, were the only people privileged to live close to the circle). I remember a lot about this life too, and gave a presentation on it at the 2011 LLResearch Homecoming; if you are interested you may read about it in the proceedings of that event. It's here, starting on page 12:

4. I was a member of a very early Christian community, in the time before the Council of Nicea altered the faith so much (in other words, before 324 AD). This was somewhere in the Hellenic world, either along the Adriatic coast, or in Greece, or Asia Minor, or maybe in Syria. I remember that the climate was hot and sunny, and there were smells of Juniper and Oregano in the air. We worshipped in the ruins of an old pagan temple that had been destroyed by an earthquake centuries before. The landscape was hilly and there was brilliant white limestone everywhere.
This was the only life in which I do not clearly remember being male; I might have been female in that life, but I'm not sure.
5. In 2009, while listening to Brian Weiss describe his regression technique during a podcast, I had a regression myself. I had a memory of being a monk in a cloistered monastery somewhere in northern Europe during the middle ages. Based on our simple dress and the rather spartan nature of our abbey, I suspect we were Franciscans, although we may have been Cistercians, as I was the brewer of the abbey; I made the beer that the brothers drank at every meal (Cistercians and Paulines are famous for their brewing).
Curiously, I remember more about the Abbott than I do about myself. He was an enormous man, about 7 feet tall with a very beefy build. He looked like Ernest Hemingway in the face. He had a giant character too, and was a very capable cleric and administrator.
I suspect I have spent many lives as a monk. I have always been strongly attracted to quiet, meditation, Gregorian Chants, cathedrals, stone buildings, simple dress, and medieval culture in general.
6 and 7. During a reading from a medium (October 2010) I inquired about a woman from my past, with whom I had a brief love affair, and to whom I have always felt an intense karmic connection. She told me that that woman had been my wife in a lifetime very long ago in northern Europe; that I had been involved in what constituted our government then, and that I was so devoted to the responsibilities of my position, that I ignored my wife, and that my involvement with her in this lifetime was for the purposes of karmic learning and balancing. The medium also told me that that woman and I had been students of Plato in a different lifetime, and that we spent a lot of time then discussing philosophy and other stimulating ideas.
The most interesting thing, to me, about all this, is how much of my life is explained by my past incarnations. I won't go into details here, but I could easily write a lengthy essay about it, and perhaps one day I shall.
