When challenged, 554 00:09:16,710 --> 00:09:16,720 plausible deniability. When challenged, 555 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,790 plausible deniability. When challenged, he can point to that framing and say he 556 00:09:18,790 --> 00:09:18,800 he can point to that framing and say he 557 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,710 he can point to that framing and say he never claimed anything definitively, 558 00:09:20,710 --> 00:09:20,720 never claimed anything definitively, 559 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,630 never claimed anything definitively, just like Gramp. But anyone actually 560 00:09:22,630 --> 00:09:22,640 just like Gramp. But anyone actually 561 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,710 just like Gramp. But anyone actually watching his content closely, can see 562 00:09:24,710 --> 00:09:24,720 watching his content closely, can see 563 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,030 watching his content closely, can see exactly what he's doing. He uses real 564 00:09:27,030 --> 00:09:27,040 exactly what he's doing. He uses real 565 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,030 exactly what he's doing. He uses real research and cites legitimate papers, 566 00:09:29,030 --> 00:09:29,040 research and cites legitimate papers, 567 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,630 research and cites legitimate papers, which makes his audience believe that 568 00:09:30,630 --> 00:09:30,640 which makes his audience believe that 569 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,310 which makes his audience believe that his conclusions are grounded in that 570 00:09:32,310 --> 00:09:32,320 his conclusions are grounded in that 571 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,150 his conclusions are grounded in that research. But he's just sneaking in 572 00:09:34,150 --> 00:09:34,160 research. But he's just sneaking in 573 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:35,670 research. But he's just sneaking in claims that the research he's citing 574 00:09:35,670 --> 00:09:35,680 claims that the research he's citing 575 00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:37,509 claims that the research he's citing does not actually support. He used to 576 00:09:37,509 --> 00:09:37,519 does not actually support. He used to 577 00:09:37,519 --> 00:09:39,750 does not actually support. He used to push this both sides rhetoric a lot. He 578 00:09:39,750 --> 00:09:39,760 push this both sides rhetoric a lot. He 579 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,910 push this both sides rhetoric a lot. He used to say things on social media like, 580 00:09:41,910 --> 00:09:41,920 used to say things on social media like, 581 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,670 used to say things on social media like, "I have enormous respect for 582 00:09:43,670 --> 00:09:43,680 "I have enormous respect for 583 00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:45,910 "I have enormous respect for archaeologists in archaeology. Don't 584 00:09:45,910 --> 00:09:45,920 archaeologists in archaeology. Don't 585 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,910 archaeologists in archaeology. Don't look for this tweet now." He deleted it. 586 00:09:47,910 --> 00:09:47,920 look for this tweet now." He deleted it. 587 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,430 look for this tweet now." He deleted it. It seems that the respect was just 588 00:09:49,430 --> 00:09:49,440 It seems that the respect was just 589 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,110 It seems that the respect was just performative. And he dropped it once he 590 00:09:51,110 --> 00:09:51,120 performative. And he dropped it once he 591 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:52,389 performative. And he dropped it once he realized that it wasn't what his target 592 00:09:52,389 --> 00:09:52,399 realized that it wasn't what his target 593 00:09:52,399 --> 00:09:54,470 realized that it wasn't what his target audience wanted to hear. Archaeologists 594 00:09:54,470 --> 00:09:54,480 audience wanted to hear. Archaeologists 595 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,630 audience wanted to hear. Archaeologists are all lying frauds. Remember, here are 596 00:09:56,630 --> 00:09:56,640 are all lying frauds. Remember, here are 597 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,550 are all lying frauds. Remember, here are some more of his deleted tweets. Here's 598 00:09:58,550 --> 00:09:58,560 some more of his deleted tweets. Here's 599 00:09:58,560 --> 00:09:59,910 some more of his deleted tweets. Here's one where he pretends that each 600 00:09:59,910 --> 00:09:59,920 one where he pretends that each 601 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:02,150 one where he pretends that each generation of archaeologists believed 602 00:10:02,150 --> 00:10:02,160 generation of archaeologists believed 603 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,829 generation of archaeologists believed they were close to the full picture, 604 00:10:03,829 --> 00:10:03,839 they were close to the full picture, 605 00:10:03,839 --> 00:10:05,829 they were close to the full picture, whatever that means. framing the entire 606 00:10:05,829 --> 00:10:05,839 whatever that means. framing the entire 607 00:10:05,839 --> 00:10:07,829 whatever that means. framing the entire discipline as perpetually overconfident 608 00:10:07,829 --> 00:10:07,839 discipline as perpetually overconfident 609 00:10:07,839 --> 00:10:10,070 discipline as perpetually overconfident and therefore inherently untrustworthy. 610 00:10:10,070 --> 00:10:10,080 and therefore inherently untrustworthy. 611 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,910 and therefore inherently untrustworthy. Predictably, that tweet was met with a 612 00:10:11,910 --> 00:10:11,920 Predictably, that tweet was met with a 613 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,829 Predictably, that tweet was met with a response from many archaeologists who 614 00:10:13,829 --> 00:10:13,839 response from many archaeologists who 615 00:10:13,839 --> 00:10:15,829 response from many archaeologists who swiftly put him in his place. Peter 616 00:10:15,829 --> 00:10:15,839 swiftly put him in his place. Peter 617 00:10:15,839 --> 00:10:17,190 swiftly put him in his place.

He walked around and looked at stuff and now he knows more than 734 00:12:13,910 --> 00:12:13,920 at stuff and now he knows more than 735 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,150 at stuff and now he knows more than archaeologists who excavate and study 736 00:12:16,150 --> 00:12:16,160 archaeologists who excavate and study 737 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,069 archaeologists who excavate and study these sites for a living. Real knowledge 738 00:12:18,069 --> 00:12:18,079 these sites for a living. Real knowledge 739 00:12:18,079 --> 00:12:20,150 these sites for a living. Real knowledge is stupid. Super cool mysteries I made 740 00:12:20,150 --> 00:12:20,160 is stupid. Super cool mysteries I made 741 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:21,990 is stupid. Super cool mysteries I made up are way more better. We need to start 742 00:12:21,990 --> 00:12:22,000 up are way more better. We need to start 743 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,829 up are way more better. We need to start with the mainstream view of Molter's 744 00:12:23,829 --> 00:12:23,839 with the mainstream view of Molter's 745 00:12:23,839 --> 00:12:25,750 with the mainstream view of Molter's history. The Orthodox timeline says that 746 00:12:25,750 --> 00:12:25,760 history. The Orthodox timeline says that 747 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,430 history. The Orthodox timeline says that the first humans arrived on the islands 748 00:12:27,430 --> 00:12:27,440 the first humans arrived on the islands 749 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,710 the first humans arrived on the islands during the Neolithic around 5,900 BC. 750 00:12:30,710 --> 00:12:30,720 during the Neolithic around 5,900 BC. 751 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,389 during the Neolithic around 5,900 BC. These people were early farmers who 752 00:12:32,389 --> 00:12:32,399 These people were early farmers who 753 00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:34,230 These people were early farmers who mostly lived in caves. However, this 754 00:12:34,230 --> 00:12:34,240 mostly lived in caves. However, this 755 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,310 mostly lived in caves. However, this period of habitation didn't last and 756 00:12:36,310 --> 00:12:36,320 period of habitation didn't last and 757 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:37,990 period of habitation didn't last and factors such as climate change led to 758 00:12:37,990 --> 00:12:38,000 factors such as climate change led to 759 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,069 factors such as climate change led to the islands becoming too dry to sustain 760 00:12:40,069 --> 00:12:40,079 the islands becoming too dry to sustain 761 00:12:40,079 --> 00:12:41,910 the islands becoming too dry to sustain agriculture. And thus, the Maltese 762 00:12:41,910 --> 00:12:41,920 agriculture. And thus, the Maltese 763 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,509 agriculture. And thus, the Maltese archipelago once again became 764 00:12:43,509 --> 00:12:43,519 archipelago once again became 765 00:12:43,519 --> 00:12:46,389 archipelago once again became uninhabited for another 1,000 years. But 766 00:12:46,389 --> 00:12:46,399 uninhabited for another 1,000 years. But 767 00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:48,550 uninhabited for another 1,000 years. But then, a second wave of colonization 768 00:12:48,550 --> 00:12:48,560 then, a second wave of colonization 769 00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:50,870 then, a second wave of colonization arrived around 3,850 770 00:12:50,870 --> 00:12:50,880 arrived around 3,850 771 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,030 arrived around 3,850 BC. It is this culture to which 772 00:12:53,030 --> 00:12:53,040 BC. It is this culture to which 773 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,110 BC. It is this culture to which mainstream archaeology attributes all 774 00:12:55,110 --> 00:12:55,120 mainstream archaeology attributes all 775 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,110 mainstream archaeology attributes all the magnificent temple building we see 776 00:12:57,110 --> 00:12:57,120 the magnificent temple building we see 777 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:58,870 the magnificent temple building we see today. However, this is where things 778 00:12:58,870 --> 00:12:58,880 today. However, this is where things 779 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,350 today. However, this is where things stop making sense. Somehow this group of 780 00:13:01,350 --> 00:13:01,360 stop making sense. Somehow this group of 781 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,670 stop making sense. Somehow this group of people supposedly a tiny island 782 00:13:03,670 --> 00:13:03,680 people supposedly a tiny island 783 00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:05,670 people supposedly a tiny island population of early farmers with no 784 00:13:05,670 --> 00:13:05,680 population of early farmers with no 785 00:13:05,680 --> 00:13:08,069 population of early farmers with no wheel, no metal tools, and no writing 786 00:13:08,069 --> 00:13:08,079 wheel, no metal tools, and no writing 787 00:13:08,079 --> 00:13:10,150 wheel, no metal tools, and no writing suddenly, practically overnight, 788 00:13:10,150 --> 00:13:10,160 suddenly, practically overnight, 789 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:11,990 suddenly, practically overnight, developed incredible skills in 790 00:13:11,990 --> 00:13:12,000 developed incredible skills in 791 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,470 developed incredible skills in megalithic construction. No, Malta was 792 00:13:14,470 --> 00:13:14,480 megalithic construction. No, Malta was 793 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,629 megalithic construction. No, Malta was not a tiny island population. During the 794 00:13:16,629 --> 00:13:16,639 not a tiny island population. During the 795 00:13:16,639 --> 00:13:19,590 not a tiny island population. During the temple period of 3,800 to 2400 B.CE, 796 00:13:19,590 --> 00:13:19,600 temple period of 3,800 to 2400 B.CE, 797 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,590 temple period of 3,800 to 2400 B.CE, Malta is estimated to have supported a 798 00:13:21,590 --> 00:13:21,600 Malta is estimated to have supported a 799 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,069 Malta is estimated to have supported a population of 5 to 10,000 people with a 800 00:13:24,069 --> 00:13:24,079 population of 5 to 10,000 people with a 801 00:13:24,079 --> 00:13:27,590 population of 5 to 10,000 people with a total land area of 316 km. That yields a 802 00:13:27,590 --> 00:13:27,600 total land area of 316 km. That yields a 803 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,069 total land area of 316 km. That yields a population density of around 16 to 32 804 00:13:30,069 --> 00:13:30,079 population density of around 16 to 32 805 00:13:30,079 --> 00:13:32,069 population density of around 16 to 32 people per square kilometer. Mainland 806 00:13:32,069 --> 00:13:32,079 people per square kilometer. Mainland 807 00:13:32,079 --> 00:13:34,069 people per square kilometer. Mainland Europe at the same time was estimated to 808 00:13:34,069 --> 00:13:34,079 Europe at the same time was estimated to 809 00:13:34,079 --> 00:13:36,389 Europe at the same time was estimated to be around 1 to two people per square km 810 00:13:36,389 --> 00:13:36,399 be around 1 to two people per square km 811 00:13:36,399 --> 00:13:38,550 be around 1 to two people per square km as the standard baseline density. So 812 00:13:38,550 --> 00:13:38,560 as the standard baseline density. So 813 00:13:38,560 --> 00:13:41,030 as the standard baseline density. So Malta at 16 to 32 people per square 814 00:13:41,030 --> 00:13:41,040 Malta at 16 to 32 people per square 815 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,990 Malta at 16 to 32 people per square kilometer was 6 to 32 times the European 816 00:13:43,990 --> 00:13:44,000 kilometer was 6 to 32 times the European 817 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,150 kilometer was 6 to 32 times the European Neolithic average. This is not a tiny 818 00:13:46,150 --> 00:13:46,160 Neolithic average. This is not a tiny 819 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,230 Neolithic average. This is not a tiny population. It is an exceptionally dense 820 00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:48,240 population. It is an exceptionally dense 821 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,230 population. It is an exceptionally dense one by the standards of the time. Next 822 00:13:50,230 --> 00:13:50,240 one by the standards of the time. Next 823 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,470 one by the standards of the time. Next up, he explains in a perplexed manner 824 00:13:52,470 --> 00:13:52,480 up, he explains in a perplexed manner 825 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,710 up, he explains in a perplexed manner that they had no wheel, no metal tools, 826 00:13:54,710 --> 00:13:54,720 that they had no wheel, no metal tools, 827 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,790 that they had no wheel, no metal tools, and no writing. Well, this is not 828 00:13:56,790 --> 00:13:56,800 and no writing. Well, this is not 829 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,110 and no writing. Well, this is not specific to the Maltese temples. He is 830 00:13:59,110 --> 00:13:59,120 specific to the Maltese temples. He is 831 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,110 specific to the Maltese temples. He is describing the universal baseline 832 00:14:01,110 --> 00:14:01,120 describing the universal baseline 833 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,189 describing the universal baseline conditions of the entire European 834 00:14:03,189 --> 00:14:03,199 conditions of the entire European 835 00:14:03,199 --> 00:14:05,670 conditions of the entire European Neolithic. Stonehenge, Carnack in 836 00:14:05,670 --> 00:14:05,680 Neolithic. Stonehenge, Carnack in 837 00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:07,990 Neolithic. Stonehenge, Carnack in Britany, the Karen of Barnes, which 838 00:14:07,990 --> 00:14:08,000 Britany, the Karen of Barnes, which 839 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,990 Britany, the Karen of Barnes, which predates Giggantia in Malta by 840 00:14:09,990 --> 00:14:10,000 predates Giggantia in Malta by 841 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,230 predates Giggantia in Malta by centuries. All of these were built 842 00:14:12,230 --> 00:14:12,240 centuries. All of these were built 843 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,550 centuries. All of these were built without wheels, metal tools or writing. 844 00:14:14,550 --> 00:14:14,560 without wheels, metal tools or writing. 845 00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:16,790 without wheels, metal tools or writing. Every major Neolithic megalithic site 846 00:14:16,790 --> 00:14:16,800 Every major Neolithic megalithic site 847 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,790 Every major Neolithic megalithic site across Europe and the British Isles was 848 00:14:18,790 --> 00:14:18,800 across Europe and the British Isles was 849 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,470 across Europe and the British Isles was built without them. He's trying to 850 00:14:20,470 --> 00:14:20,480 built without them. He's trying to 851 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,150 built without them. He's trying to manufacture a sense of impossibility 852 00:14:22,150 --> 00:14:22,160 manufacture a sense of impossibility 853 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,990 manufacture a sense of impossibility where none exists. Let's take the 854 00:14:23,990 --> 00:14:24,000 where none exists. Let's take the 855 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,310 where none exists. Let's take the largest megalithic site, Gagantia, as an 856 00:14:26,310 --> 00:14:26,320 largest megalithic site, Gagantia, as an 857 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,230 largest megalithic site, Gagantia, as an example. Gagantia was apparently 858 00:14:28,230 --> 00:14:28,240 example. Gagantia was apparently 859 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,110 example. Gagantia was apparently constructed only 200 years after humans 860 00:14:31,110 --> 00:14:31,120 constructed only 200 years after humans 861 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,269 constructed only 200 years after humans first repopulated the islands. But it's 862 00:14:33,269 --> 00:14:33,279 first repopulated the islands. But it's 863 00:14:33,279 --> 00:14:35,509 first repopulated the islands. But it's an astoundingly impressive project. Some 864 00:14:35,509 --> 00:14:35,519 an astoundingly impressive project. Some 865 00:14:35,519 --> 00:14:37,750 an astoundingly impressive project. Some of the stones weigh over 50 tons. Yet 866 00:14:37,750 --> 00:14:37,760 of the stones weigh over 50 tons. Yet 867 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,910 of the stones weigh over 50 tons. Yet these massive megaliths were quarried, 868 00:14:39,910 --> 00:14:39,920 these massive megaliths were quarried, 869 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:41,910 these massive megaliths were quarried, precisely cut, transported, and 870 00:14:41,910 --> 00:14:41,920 precisely cut, transported, and 871 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,150 precisely cut, transported, and perfectly aligned without metal tools. 872 00:14:44,150 --> 00:14:44,160 perfectly aligned without metal tools. 873 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,150 perfectly aligned without metal tools. Without even draft animals to pull the 874 00:14:46,150 --> 00:14:46,160 Without even draft animals to pull the 875 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,550 Without even draft animals to pull the stones without draft animals to pull the 876 00:14:48,550 --> 00:14:48,560 stones without draft animals to pull the 877 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,470 stones without draft animals to pull the stones. Are you sure about that, champ? 878 00:14:50,470 --> 00:14:50,480 stones. Are you sure about that, champ? 879 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,550 stones. Are you sure about that, champ? Based on what, your butthole? I ask. 880 00:14:52,550 --> 00:14:52,560 Based on what, your butthole? I ask. 881 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,870 Based on what, your butthole? I ask. Because the Fragsus project was a major 882 00:14:54,870 --> 00:14:54,880 Because the Fragsus project was a major 883 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,790 Because the Fragsus project was a major multi-year multi-establishment 884 00:14:56,790 --> 00:14:56,800 multi-year multi-establishment 885 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,949 multi-year multi-establishment excavation program that produced the 886 00:14:58,949 --> 00:14:58,959 excavation program that produced the 887 00:14:58,959 --> 00:15:00,870 excavation program that produced the most comprehensive zoarchchaeological 888 00:15:00,870 --> 00:15:00,880 most comprehensive zoarchchaeological 889 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,870 most comprehensive zoarchchaeological data set we have of the Maltese temple 890 00:15:02,870 --> 00:15:02,880 data set we have of the Maltese temple 891 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,269 data set we have of the Maltese temple period. And that team found cattle bones 892 00:15:05,269 --> 00:15:05,279 period. And that team found cattle bones 893 00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:07,030 period. And that team found cattle bones at every single temple site they 894 00:15:07,030 --> 00:15:07,040 at every single temple site they 895 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,430 at every single temple site they excavated. Cattle are draft animals, 896 00:15:09,430 --> 00:15:09,440 excavated. Cattle are draft animals, 897 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,189 excavated. Cattle are draft animals, aren't they? That means livestock that 898 00:15:11,189 --> 00:15:11,199 aren't they? That means livestock that 899 00:15:11,199 --> 00:15:13,110 aren't they? That means livestock that are trained to pull [\h__\h] Yes, they are 900 00:15:13,110 --> 00:15:13,120 are trained to pull [\h__\h] Yes, they are 901 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,269 are trained to pull [\h__\h] Yes, they are among the most widely and continuously 902 00:15:15,269 --> 00:15:15,279 among the most widely and continuously 903 00:15:15,279 --> 00:15:17,430 among the most widely and continuously used draft animals in human history. And 904 00:15:17,430 --> 00:15:17,440 used draft animals in human history. And 905 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,110 used draft animals in human history. And they are still used as draft animals 906 00:15:19,110 --> 00:15:19,120 they are still used as draft animals 907 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:20,870 they are still used as draft animals today. Do you think they could have used 908 00:15:20,870 --> 00:15:20,880 today. Do you think they could have used 909 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,990 today. Do you think they could have used those? Also, every time without fail, 910 00:15:23,990 --> 00:15:24,000 those? Also, every time without fail, 911 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,750 those? Also, every time without fail, and no matter what site they're talking 912 00:15:25,750 --> 00:15:25,760 and no matter what site they're talking 913 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,150 and no matter what site they're talking about, these douchebags always rave 914 00:15:28,150 --> 00:15:28,160 about, these douchebags always rave 915 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,910 about, these douchebags always rave about the incredible precision of the 916 00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:29,920 about the incredible precision of the 917 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,990 about the incredible precision of the cutting and the immaculate perfection of 918 00:15:31,990 --> 00:15:32,000 cutting and the immaculate perfection of 919 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,230 cutting and the immaculate perfection of the alignment while showing you footage 920 00:15:34,230 --> 00:15:34,240 the alignment while showing you footage 921 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,470 the alignment while showing you footage of stones with no such otherworldly 922 00:15:36,470 --> 00:15:36,480 of stones with no such otherworldly 923 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,310 of stones with no such otherworldly precision or perfection. Mikey just 924 00:15:38,310 --> 00:15:38,320 precision or perfection. Mikey just 925 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,230 precision or perfection. Mikey just asserts it and gullible people nod their 926 00:15:40,230 --> 00:15:40,240 asserts it and gullible people nod their 927 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,230 asserts it and gullible people nod their heads. They were ancient people who did 928 00:15:42,230 --> 00:15:42,240 heads. They were ancient people who did 929 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,069 heads. They were ancient people who did their best, nothing more. I mean, look 930 00:15:44,069 --> 00:15:44,079 their best, nothing more. I mean, look 931 00:15:44,079 --> 00:15:45,990 their best, nothing more. I mean, look at the size of some of these blocks. 932 00:15:45,990 --> 00:15:46,000 at the size of some of these blocks. 933 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,629 at the size of some of these blocks. It's estimated the temple was over 25 ft 934 00:15:48,629 --> 00:15:48,639 It's estimated the temple was over 25 ft 935 00:15:48,639 --> 00:15:50,230 It's estimated the temple was over 25 ft tall. But [music] how did they lift 936 00:15:50,230 --> 00:15:50,240 tall. But [music] how did they lift 937 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,230 tall. But [music] how did they lift these stones so high? The complex is 938 00:15:52,230 --> 00:15:52,240 these stones so high? The complex is 939 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:53,990 these stones so high? The complex is also astronomically aligned with the 940 00:15:53,990 --> 00:15:54,000 also astronomically aligned with the 941 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,829 also astronomically aligned with the winter solstice, implying the builders 942 00:15:55,829 --> 00:15:55,839 winter solstice, implying the builders 943 00:15:55,839 --> 00:15:57,590 winter solstice, implying the builders had an observational understanding of 944 00:15:57,590 --> 00:15:57,600 had an observational understanding of 945 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,509 had an observational understanding of solar cycles, which is incredible 946 00:15:59,509 --> 00:15:59,519 solar cycles, which is incredible 947 00:15:59,519 --> 00:16:01,509 solar cycles, which is incredible considering the sheer infancy of their 948 00:16:01,509 --> 00:16:01,519 considering the sheer infancy of their 949 00:16:01,519 --> 00:16:03,269 considering the sheer infancy of their civilization and the lack of written 950 00:16:03,269 --> 00:16:03,279 civilization and the lack of written 951 00:16:03,279 --> 00:16:05,189 civilization and the lack of written language for architectural design. The 952 00:16:05,189 --> 00:16:05,199 language for architectural design. The 953 00:16:05,199 --> 00:16:06,870 language for architectural design. The temple also suggests centralized 954 00:16:06,870 --> 00:16:06,880 temple also suggests centralized 955 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:08,389 temple also suggests centralized planning, organized labor, and 956 00:16:08,389 --> 00:16:08,399 planning, organized labor, and 957 00:16:08,399 --> 00:16:10,790 planning, organized labor, and motivations powerful enough to mobilize 958 00:16:10,790 --> 00:16:10,800 motivations powerful enough to mobilize 959 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,350 motivations powerful enough to mobilize an entire society. Yet, all of this was 960 00:16:13,350 --> 00:16:13,360 an entire society. Yet, all of this was 961 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,590 an entire society. Yet, all of this was supposedly achieved in just 200 years. 962 00:16:15,590 --> 00:16:15,600 supposedly achieved in just 200 years. 963 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,069 supposedly achieved in just 200 years. It makes zero sense to me. Astronomical 964 00:16:18,069 --> 00:16:18,079 It makes zero sense to me. Astronomical 965 00:16:18,079 --> 00:16:19,990 It makes zero sense to me. Astronomical alignment is the result of watching the 966 00:16:19,990 --> 00:16:20,000 alignment is the result of watching the 967 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,910 alignment is the result of watching the night sky for a long time and recording 968 00:16:21,910 --> 00:16:21,920 night sky for a long time and recording 969 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:23,910 night sky for a long time and recording the positions of things. Should we be 970 00:16:23,910 --> 00:16:23,920 the positions of things. Should we be 971 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,829 the positions of things. Should we be impressed by their patient and thorough 972 00:16:25,829 --> 00:16:25,839 impressed by their patient and thorough 973 00:16:25,839 --> 00:16:27,990 impressed by their patient and thorough observations over many years? Sure, I 974 00:16:27,990 --> 00:16:28,000 observations over many years? Sure, I 975 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,230 observations over many years? Sure, I guess, but it's not a mystery. Same with 976 00:16:30,230 --> 00:16:30,240 guess, but it's not a mystery. Same with 977 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,430 guess, but it's not a mystery. Same with the rest. Planning, labor, motivation. 978 00:16:33,430 --> 00:16:33,440 the rest. Planning, labor, motivation. 979 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,269 the rest. Planning, labor, motivation. Oh my goodness, how did they plan things 980 00:16:35,269 --> 00:16:35,279 Oh my goodness, how did they plan things 981 00:16:35,279 --> 00:16:37,189 Oh my goodness, how did they plan things and then work to achieve them? It's not 982 00:16:37,189 --> 00:16:37,199 and then work to achieve them? It's not 983 00:16:37,199 --> 00:16:38,790 and then work to achieve them? It's not like they were talking to each other or 984 00:16:38,790 --> 00:16:38,800 like they were talking to each other or 985 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,949 like they were talking to each other or anything. Does this [\h__\h] think that no 986 00:16:40,949 --> 00:16:40,959 anything. Does this [\h__\h] think that no 987 00:16:40,959 --> 00:16:42,710 anything. Does this [\h__\h] think that no written language means no spoken 988 00:16:42,710 --> 00:16:42,720 written language means no spoken 989 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,269 written language means no spoken language either? Working also was not a 990 00:16:45,269 --> 00:16:45,279 language either? Working also was not a 991 00:16:45,279 --> 00:16:47,189 language either? Working also was not a new concept. That's sort of what every 992 00:16:47,189 --> 00:16:47,199 new concept. That's sort of what every 993 00:16:47,199 --> 00:16:49,670 new concept. That's sort of what every human did until the 20th century. 200 994 00:16:49,670 --> 00:16:49,680 human did until the 20th century. 200 995 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,749 human did until the 20th century. 200 years is plenty of time to build some 996 00:16:51,749 --> 00:16:51,759 years is plenty of time to build some 997 00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:53,910 years is plenty of time to build some [\h__\h] All we're left with is how they 998 00:16:53,910 --> 00:16:53,920 [\h__\h] All we're left with is how they 999 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,990 [\h__\h] All we're left with is how they move big rock, which is really all these 1000 00:16:55,990 --> 00:16:56,000 move big rock, which is really all these 1001 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,749 move big rock, which is really all these [\h__\h] ever have in the first place 1002 00:16:57,749 --> 00:16:57,759 [\h__\h] ever have in the first place 1003 00:16:57,759 --> 00:16:59,350 [\h__\h] ever have in the first place that a population could develop this 1004 00:16:59,350 --> 00:16:59,360 that a population could develop this 1005 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,590 that a population could develop this level of sophistication in such a tiny 1006 00:17:01,590 --> 00:17:01,600 level of sophistication in such a tiny 1007 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,110 level of sophistication in such a tiny time frame. I mean, where are the 1008 00:17:03,110 --> 00:17:03,120 time frame. I mean, where are the 1009 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,189 time frame. I mean, where are the precursors? Where is the slow buildup of 1010 00:17:05,189 --> 00:17:05,199 precursors? Where is the slow buildup of 1011 00:17:05,199 --> 00:17:06,949 precursors? Where is the slow buildup of technology and ideas, the trial and 1012 00:17:06,949 --> 00:17:06,959 technology and ideas, the trial and 1013 00:17:06,959 --> 00:17:08,390 technology and ideas, the trial and error? You'd expect to see crudder 1014 00:17:08,390 --> 00:17:08,400 error? You'd expect to see crudder 1015 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,390 error? You'd expect to see crudder efforts, the development of skills, not 1016 00:17:10,390 --> 00:17:10,400 efforts, the development of skills, not 1017 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,390 efforts, the development of skills, not immediately jumping to such impressive 1018 00:17:12,390 --> 00:17:12,400 immediately jumping to such impressive 1019 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,150 immediately jumping to such impressive construction at the very beginning of 1020 00:17:14,150 --> 00:17:14,160 construction at the very beginning of 1021 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,309 construction at the very beginning of their civilization. To put it simply, if 1022 00:17:16,309 --> 00:17:16,319 their civilization. To put it simply, if 1023 00:17:16,319 --> 00:17:18,069 their civilization. To put it simply, if the mainstream view is to be believed, 1024 00:17:18,069 --> 00:17:18,079 the mainstream view is to be believed, 1025 00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:20,390 the mainstream view is to be believed, then this leap represents the fastest 1026 00:17:20,390 --> 00:17:20,400 then this leap represents the fastest 1027 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,309 then this leap represents the fastest development of construction technology 1028 00:17:22,309 --> 00:17:22,319 development of construction technology 1029 00:17:22,319 --> 00:17:25,110 development of construction technology and societal organization ever seen in 1030 00:17:25,110 --> 00:17:25,120 and societal organization ever seen in 1031 00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:27,029 and societal organization ever seen in human history. And it simply doesn't 1032 00:17:27,029 --> 00:17:27,039 human history. And it simply doesn't 1033 00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:28,630 human history. And it simply doesn't make sense. And it's not like they could 1034 00:17:28,630 --> 00:17:28,640 make sense. And it's not like they could 1035 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,310 make sense. And it's not like they could have brought these ideas with them. Even 1036 00:17:30,310 --> 00:17:30,320 have brought these ideas with them. Even 1037 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,789 have brought these ideas with them. Even with its accepted date, Gigante is by 1038 00:17:32,789 --> 00:17:32,799 with its accepted date, Gigante is by 1039 00:17:32,799 --> 00:17:34,630 with its accepted date, Gigante is by far the oldest megalithic site in the 1040 00:17:34,630 --> 00:17:34,640 far the oldest megalithic site in the 1041 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,310 far the oldest megalithic site in the Mediterranean and was the oldest on 1042 00:17:36,310 --> 00:17:36,320 Mediterranean and was the oldest on 1043 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,230 Mediterranean and was the oldest on Earth until the discovery of the even 1044 00:17:38,230 --> 00:17:38,240 Earth until the discovery of the even 1045 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,789 Earth until the discovery of the even more mysterious Gebecepe in Turkey. So, 1046 00:17:40,789 --> 00:17:40,799 more mysterious Gebecepe in Turkey. So, 1047 00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:43,350 more mysterious Gebecepe in Turkey. So, how did this culture go from zero to 1048 00:17:43,350 --> 00:17:43,360 how did this culture go from zero to 1049 00:17:43,360 --> 00:17:45,110 how did this culture go from zero to master engineers, builders, and 1050 00:17:45,110 --> 00:17:45,120 master engineers, builders, and 1051 00:17:45,120 --> 00:17:47,830 master engineers, builders, and astronomers in only 200 years? In my 1052 00:17:47,830 --> 00:17:47,840 astronomers in only 200 years? In my 1053 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,669 astronomers in only 200 years? In my opinion, that just doesn't make sense. 1054 00:17:49,669 --> 00:17:49,679 opinion, that just doesn't make sense. 1055 00:17:49,679 --> 00:17:51,830 opinion, that just doesn't make sense. Ah, yes, a transparent name drop of a 1056 00:17:51,830 --> 00:17:51,840 Ah, yes, a transparent name drop of a 1057 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,590 Ah, yes, a transparent name drop of a situs potential viewers have heard of 1058 00:17:53,590 --> 00:17:53,600 situs potential viewers have heard of 1059 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,350 situs potential viewers have heard of just in case they were falling asleep. 1060 00:17:55,350 --> 00:17:55,360 just in case they were falling asleep. 1061 00:17:55,360 --> 00:17:57,110 just in case they were falling asleep. Anyway, the precursors he's whining 1062 00:17:57,110 --> 00:17:57,120 Anyway, the precursors he's whining 1063 00:17:57,120 --> 00:17:58,870 Anyway, the precursors he's whining about are indeed there. He just doesn't 1064 00:17:58,870 --> 00:17:58,880 about are indeed there. He just doesn't 1065 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,909 about are indeed there. He just doesn't read his own sources. David Trump's 1981 1066 00:18:01,909 --> 00:18:01,919 read his own sources. David Trump's 1981 1067 00:18:01,919 --> 00:18:04,630 read his own sources. David Trump's 1981 study, Megalithic Architecture in Malta, 1068 00:18:04,630 --> 00:18:04,640 study, Megalithic Architecture in Malta, 1069 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,630 study, Megalithic Architecture in Malta, presents a complete typological sequence 1070 00:18:06,630 --> 00:18:06,640 presents a complete typological sequence 1071 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,310 presents a complete typological sequence of structural development across the 1072 00:18:08,310 --> 00:18:08,320 of structural development across the 1073 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,390 of structural development across the temple period. You can see the clear 1074 00:18:10,390 --> 00:18:10,400 temple period. You can see the clear 1075 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:11,909 temple period. You can see the clear progression from earlier simpler 1076 00:18:11,909 --> 00:18:11,919 progression from earlier simpler 1077 00:18:11,919 --> 00:18:13,990 progression from earlier simpler structures to the later more complex and 1078 00:18:13,990 --> 00:18:14,000 structures to the later more complex and 1079 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,549 structures to the later more complex and monumental ones. Trump states explicitly 1080 00:18:16,549 --> 00:18:16,559 monumental ones. Trump states explicitly 1081 00:18:16,559 --> 00:18:18,150 monumental ones. Trump states explicitly that the description of this sequence 1082 00:18:18,150 --> 00:18:18,160 that the description of this sequence 1083 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,070 that the description of this sequence may seem a little labored, but it 1084 00:18:20,070 --> 00:18:20,080 may seem a little labored, but it 1085 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,590 may seem a little labored, but it illustrates the progressive advances 1086 00:18:21,590 --> 00:18:21,600 illustrates the progressive advances 1087 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:22,950 illustrates the progressive advances made by the designers of these 1088 00:18:22,950 --> 00:18:22,960 made by the designers of these 1089 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,789 made by the designers of these buildings. Again, that study was 1090 00:18:24,789 --> 00:18:24,799 buildings. Again, that study was 1091 00:18:24,799 --> 00:18:27,830 buildings. Again, that study was published 44 years ago, not exactly hot 1092 00:18:27,830 --> 00:18:27,840 published 44 years ago, not exactly hot 1093 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,470 published 44 years ago, not exactly hot off the presses. More modern work by 1094 00:18:30,470 --> 00:18:30,480 off the presses. More modern work by 1095 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,510 off the presses. More modern work by Whittle Malone at Al in 2019 also 1096 00:18:33,510 --> 00:18:33,520 Whittle Malone at Al in 2019 also 1097 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,110 Whittle Malone at Al in 2019 also contradicts Button's baseless 1098 00:18:35,110 --> 00:18:35,120 contradicts Button's baseless 1099 00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:37,350 contradicts Button's baseless characterization of sudden inexplicable 1100 00:18:37,350 --> 00:18:37,360 characterization of sudden inexplicable 1101 00:18:37,360 --> 00:18:39,590 characterization of sudden inexplicable construction. At Shara, the town where 1102 00:18:39,590 --> 00:18:39,600 construction. At Shara, the town where 1103 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,549 construction. At Shara, the town where Gantia is located, they describe a more 1104 00:18:42,549 --> 00:18:42,559 Gantia is located, they describe a more 1105 00:18:42,559 --> 00:18:44,870 Gantia is located, they describe a more extended, steady, and slowly changing 1106 00:18:44,870 --> 00:18:44,880 extended, steady, and slowly changing 1107 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,510 extended, steady, and slowly changing cultural sequence where one phase slides 1108 00:18:47,510 --> 00:18:47,520 cultural sequence where one phase slides 1109 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,590 cultural sequence where one phase slides into the next. Their model shows that 1110 00:18:49,590 --> 00:18:49,600 into the next. Their model shows that 1111 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,750 into the next. Their model shows that the site was being used over a very long 1112 00:18:51,750 --> 00:18:51,760 the site was being used over a very long 1113 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,470 the site was being used over a very long time span with abundant Zebuk period 1114 00:18:54,470 --> 00:18:54,480 time span with abundant Zebuk period 1115 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,950 time span with abundant Zebuk period material indicating activity there well 1116 00:18:56,950 --> 00:18:56,960 material indicating activity there well 1117 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,270 material indicating activity there well before the later monumental phases. In 1118 00:18:59,270 --> 00:18:59,280 before the later monumental phases. In 1119 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,110 before the later monumental phases. In other words, the sequence at Shara is 1120 00:19:01,110 --> 00:19:01,120 other words, the sequence at Shara is 1121 00:19:01,120 --> 00:19:03,029 other words, the sequence at Shara is not one of abrupt appearance but of 1122 00:19:03,029 --> 00:19:03,039 not one of abrupt appearance but of 1123 00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:05,830 not one of abrupt appearance but of long-term continuity and gradual change. 1124 00:19:05,830 --> 00:19:05,840 long-term continuity and gradual change. 1125 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,750 long-term continuity and gradual change. Mikey even tells his audience that 1126 00:19:07,750 --> 00:19:07,760 Mikey even tells his audience that 1127 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,150 Mikey even tells his audience that Giggantia was the oldest megalithic site 1128 00:19:10,150 --> 00:19:10,160 Giggantia was the oldest megalithic site 1129 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,789 Giggantia was the oldest megalithic site in the world until Gobecletepe while 1130 00:19:12,789 --> 00:19:12,799 in the world until Gobecletepe while 1131 00:19:12,799 --> 00:19:14,950 in the world until Gobecletepe while highlighting text that says something 1132 00:19:14,950 --> 00:19:14,960 highlighting text that says something 1133 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,789 highlighting text that says something completely different. It says that 1134 00:19:16,789 --> 00:19:16,799 completely different. It says that 1135 00:19:16,799 --> 00:19:19,270 completely different. It says that Giggantia was the world's second oldest 1136 00:19:19,270 --> 00:19:19,280 Giggantia was the world's second oldest 1137 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,430 Giggantia was the world's second oldest man-made religious structure after 1138 00:19:21,430 --> 00:19:21,440 man-made religious structure after 1139 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,230 man-made religious structure after Gobecletepe, not the oldest megalithic 1140 00:19:24,230 --> 00:19:24,240 Gobecletepe, not the oldest megalithic 1141 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,150 Gobecletepe, not the oldest megalithic site. He either can't read what he's 1142 00:19:26,150 --> 00:19:26,160 site. He either can't read what he's 1143 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,909 site.

Here's a wiki entry 1148 00:19:31,750 --> 00:19:31,760 won't catch the lie. Here's a wiki entry 1149 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,990 won't catch the lie. Here's a wiki entry of the oldest sites. There are two older 1150 00:19:33,990 --> 00:19:34,000 of the oldest sites. There are two older 1151 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,350 of the oldest sites. There are two older than Gobecletepe and 19 in between that 1152 00:19:37,350 --> 00:19:37,360 than Gobecletepe and 19 in between that 1153 00:19:37,360 --> 00:19:39,590 than Gobecletepe and 19 in between that and Giggantia. Whoops. But it doesn't 1154 00:19:39,590 --> 00:19:39,600 and Giggantia. Whoops. But it doesn't 1155 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,590 and Giggantia. Whoops. But it doesn't stop there. The Orthodox view claims 1156 00:19:41,590 --> 00:19:41,600 stop there. The Orthodox view claims 1157 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,990 stop there. The Orthodox view claims that over the next 1,000 years in total, 1158 00:19:43,990 --> 00:19:44,000 that over the next 1,000 years in total, 1159 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,390 that over the next 1,000 years in total, this culture were absolutely prolific in 1160 00:19:46,390 --> 00:19:46,400 this culture were absolutely prolific in 1161 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,310 this culture were absolutely prolific in their temple building, somehow building 1162 00:19:48,310 --> 00:19:48,320 their temple building, somehow building 1163 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,789 their temple building, somehow building at least 30 megalithic temple sites all 1164 00:19:50,789 --> 00:19:50,799 at least 30 megalithic temple sites all 1165 00:19:50,799 --> 00:19:53,190 at least 30 megalithic temple sites all across the tiny Maltese islands. This is 1166 00:19:53,190 --> 00:19:53,200 across the tiny Maltese islands. This is 1167 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,990 across the tiny Maltese islands. This is an entirely new site roughly every 33 1168 00:19:55,990 --> 00:19:56,000 an entirely new site roughly every 33 1169 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,669 an entirely new site roughly every 33 years. And that's only the ones we've 1170 00:19:57,669 --> 00:19:57,679 years. And that's only the ones we've 1171 00:19:57,679 --> 00:19:59,590 years. And that's only the ones we've discovered. There could be more. Not 1172 00:19:59,590 --> 00:19:59,600 discovered. There could be more. Not 1173 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,830 discovered. There could be more. Not every temple was the size of Gantia, 1174 00:20:01,830 --> 00:20:01,840 every temple was the size of Gantia, 1175 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,390 every temple was the size of Gantia, chief. The smallest known temple site is 1176 00:20:04,390 --> 00:20:04,400 chief. The smallest known temple site is 1177 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,590 chief. The smallest known temple site is just 6.5 m long. One small to 1178 00:20:07,590 --> 00:20:07,600 just 6.5 m long. One small to 1179 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,070 just 6.5 m long. One small to medium-sized temple made from locally 1180 00:20:10,070 --> 00:20:10,080 medium-sized temple made from locally 1181 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,710 medium-sized temple made from locally and abundantly available soft workable 1182 00:20:12,710 --> 00:20:12,720 and abundantly available soft workable 1183 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,350 and abundantly available soft workable limestone every 30 years from a 1184 00:20:15,350 --> 00:20:15,360 limestone every 30 years from a 1185 00:20:15,360 --> 00:20:17,590 limestone every 30 years from a population 10 times denser than the 1186 00:20:17,590 --> 00:20:17,600 population 10 times denser than the 1187 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,909 population 10 times denser than the European Neolithic average is not a 1188 00:20:19,909 --> 00:20:19,919 European Neolithic average is not a 1189 00:20:19,919 --> 00:20:21,750 European Neolithic average is not a mystery. So if it doesn't make sense to 1190 00:20:21,750 --> 00:20:21,760 mystery. So if it doesn't make sense to 1191 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,070 mystery. So if it doesn't make sense to you, Mike, you might just be stupid or 1192 00:20:24,070 --> 00:20:24,080 you, Mike, you might just be stupid or 1193 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,549 you, Mike, you might just be stupid or grifting. Yeah, the second one. So why 1194 00:20:26,549 --> 00:20:26,559 grifting. Yeah, the second one. So why 1195 00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:28,710 grifting. Yeah, the second one. So why did this culture appear, immediately 1196 00:20:28,710 --> 00:20:28,720 did this culture appear, immediately 1197 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,390 did this culture appear, immediately begin constructing astoundingly 1198 00:20:30,390 --> 00:20:30,400 begin constructing astoundingly 1199 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,070 begin constructing astoundingly impressive megalithic temples, 1200 00:20:32,070 --> 00:20:32,080 impressive megalithic temples, 1201 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,070 impressive megalithic temples, consistently pumping one out every few 1202 00:20:34,070 --> 00:20:34,080 consistently pumping one out every few 1203 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,830 consistently pumping one out every few decades, and then suddenly disappear 1204 00:20:35,830 --> 00:20:35,840 decades, and then suddenly disappear 1205 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:37,990 decades, and then suddenly disappear with no sign of conquest or war? 1206 00:20:37,990 --> 00:20:38,000 with no sign of conquest or war? 1207 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,990 with no sign of conquest or war? Conquest and war are not the only 1208 00:20:39,990 --> 00:20:40,000 Conquest and war are not the only 1209 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,470 Conquest and war are not the only reasons for civilizational collapse, and 1210 00:20:42,470 --> 00:20:42,480 reasons for civilizational collapse, and 1211 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,230 reasons for civilizational collapse, and the end of the temple period is 1212 00:20:44,230 --> 00:20:44,240 the end of the temple period is 1213 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,310 the end of the temple period is thoroughly recorded. The collapse is 1214 00:20:46,310 --> 00:20:46,320 thoroughly recorded. The collapse is 1215 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,310 thoroughly recorded. The collapse is documented in the skeletal record, the 1216 00:20:48,310 --> 00:20:48,320 documented in the skeletal record, the 1217 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,390 documented in the skeletal record, the paleobotanical record, soil 1218 00:20:50,390 --> 00:20:50,400 paleobotanical record, soil 1219 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,310 paleobotanical record, soil micromorphological record, and 1220 00:20:52,310 --> 00:20:52,320 micromorphological record, and 1221 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,549 micromorphological record, and chronological modeling. Different areas 1222 00:20:54,549 --> 00:20:54,559 chronological modeling. Different areas 1223 00:20:54,559 --> 00:20:56,710 chronological modeling. Different areas that all independently point to the same 1224 00:20:56,710 --> 00:20:56,720 that all independently point to the same 1225 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,029 that all independently point to the same conclusion. The skeletal remains show a 1226 00:20:59,029 --> 00:20:59,039 conclusion. The skeletal remains show a 1227 00:20:59,039 --> 00:21:00,950 conclusion. The skeletal remains show a society that had been deteriorating for 1228 00:21:00,950 --> 00:21:00,960 society that had been deteriorating for 1229 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,950 society that had been deteriorating for a long time. In the final centuries of 1230 00:21:02,950 --> 00:21:02,960 a long time. In the final centuries of 1231 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,990 a long time. In the final centuries of the temple period between 2600 and 2400 1232 00:21:05,990 --> 00:21:06,000 the temple period between 2600 and 2400 1233 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,230 the temple period between 2600 and 2400 B.CE, half of the people dying were 1234 00:21:08,230 --> 00:21:08,240 B.CE, half of the people dying were 1235 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,470 B.CE, half of the people dying were children, and the adult bones showed 1236 00:21:10,470 --> 00:21:10,480 children, and the adult bones showed 1237 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,029 children, and the adult bones showed sustained malnutrition. These are direct 1238 00:21:13,029 --> 00:21:13,039 sustained malnutrition. These are direct 1239 00:21:13,039 --> 00:21:15,029 sustained malnutrition. These are direct physical measurements from human remains 1240 00:21:15,029 --> 00:21:15,039 physical measurements from human remains 1241 00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:16,789 physical measurements from human remains which show a population that had been 1242 00:21:16,789 --> 00:21:16,799 which show a population that had been 1243 00:21:16,799 --> 00:21:18,710 which show a population that had been experiencing generational nutritional 1244 00:21:18,710 --> 00:21:18,720 experiencing generational nutritional 1245 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,950 experiencing generational nutritional stress for generations before the 1246 00:21:20,950 --> 00:21:20,960 stress for generations before the 1247 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,270 stress for generations before the disappearance. The population was in the 1248 00:21:23,270 --> 00:21:23,280 disappearance. The population was in the 1249 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,830 disappearance. The population was in the advanced stages of a slow prolonged 1250 00:21:25,830 --> 00:21:25,840 advanced stages of a slow prolonged 1251 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,990 advanced stages of a slow prolonged demographic collapse that was suffering 1252 00:21:27,990 --> 00:21:28,000 demographic collapse that was suffering 1253 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,549 demographic collapse that was suffering for a long time and was thus forced to 1254 00:21:30,549 --> 00:21:30,559 for a long time and was thus forced to 1255 00:21:30,559 --> 00:21:32,630 for a long time and was thus forced to leave the island. All of this is common 1256 00:21:32,630 --> 00:21:32,640 leave the island. All of this is common 1257 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,710 leave the island. All of this is common knowledge among scholars who research 1258 00:21:34,710 --> 00:21:34,720 knowledge among scholars who research 1259 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,029 knowledge among scholars who research this area. Why did they need to build so 1260 00:21:37,029 --> 00:21:37,039 this area. Why did they need to build so 1261 00:21:37,039 --> 00:21:39,270 this area. Why did they need to build so many temples so soon after one another? 1262 00:21:39,270 --> 00:21:39,280 many temples so soon after one another? 1263 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,510 many temples so soon after one another? And how did a tiny island population 1264 00:21:41,510 --> 00:21:41,520 And how did a tiny island population 1265 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,510 And how did a tiny island population have the resources and the ability to 1266 00:21:43,510 --> 00:21:43,520 have the resources and the ability to 1267 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,270 have the resources and the ability to achieve this? You'd think Mortal was 1268 00:21:45,270 --> 00:21:45,280 achieve this? You'd think Mortal was 1269 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,029 achieve this? You'd think Mortal was simply too small to sustain the 1270 00:21:47,029 --> 00:21:47,039 simply too small to sustain the 1271 00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:48,710 simply too small to sustain the necessary civilization that could 1272 00:21:48,710 --> 00:21:48,720 necessary civilization that could 1273 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,710 necessary civilization that could develop the enormously sophisticated 1274 00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:50,720 develop the enormously sophisticated 1275 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,390 develop the enormously sophisticated construction techniques found in the 1276 00:21:52,390 --> 00:21:52,400 construction techniques found in the 1277 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,789 construction techniques found in the temples. And we see no evidence for the 1278 00:21:54,789 --> 00:21:54,799 temples. And we see no evidence for the 1279 00:21:54,799 --> 00:21:56,870 temples. And we see no evidence for the large-scale domestic agriculture that 1280 00:21:56,870 --> 00:21:56,880 large-scale domestic agriculture that 1281 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,549 large-scale domestic agriculture that surely would have been needed to support 1282 00:21:58,549 --> 00:21:58,559 surely would have been needed to support 1283 00:21:58,559 --> 00:22:00,470 surely would have been needed to support the people who achieved this. So, how 1284 00:22:00,470 --> 00:22:00,480 the people who achieved this. So, how 1285 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,870 the people who achieved this. So, how does any of this make sense? Make it 1286 00:22:02,870 --> 00:22:02,880 does any of this make sense? Make it 1287 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,669 does any of this make sense? Make it make sense, you guys. Okay, sure. You're 1288 00:22:05,669 --> 00:22:05,679 make sense, you guys. Okay, sure. You're 1289 00:22:05,679 --> 00:22:07,590 make sense, you guys. Okay, sure. You're just lying about there having been no 1290 00:22:07,590 --> 00:22:07,600 just lying about there having been no 1291 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,909 just lying about there having been no agriculture. Pollen cores taken from 1292 00:22:09,909 --> 00:22:09,919 agriculture. Pollen cores taken from 1293 00:22:09,919 --> 00:22:11,830 agriculture. Pollen cores taken from Maltese sediment show rapid 1294 00:22:11,830 --> 00:22:11,840 Maltese sediment show rapid 1295 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,590 Maltese sediment show rapid deforestation beginning in the early 1296 00:22:13,590 --> 00:22:13,600 deforestation beginning in the early 1297 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,430 deforestation beginning in the early Neolithic which was followed by 1298 00:22:15,430 --> 00:22:15,440 Neolithic which was followed by 1299 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,350 Neolithic which was followed by centuries of intensive agriculture 1300 00:22:17,350 --> 00:22:17,360 centuries of intensive agriculture 1301 00:22:17,360 --> 00:22:19,510 centuries of intensive agriculture dominating the landscape. The pollen 1302 00:22:19,510 --> 00:22:19,520 dominating the landscape. The pollen 1303 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,270 dominating the landscape. The pollen record shows the shift from mixed 1304 00:22:21,270 --> 00:22:21,280 record shows the shift from mixed 1305 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,510 record shows the shift from mixed farming to heavy arable agriculture 1306 00:22:23,510 --> 00:22:23,520 farming to heavy arable agriculture 1307 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,750 farming to heavy arable agriculture happening around 5,800 years ago and 1308 00:22:25,750 --> 00:22:25,760 happening around 5,800 years ago and 1309 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,390 happening around 5,800 years ago and persisting. Soil micromorphology at 1310 00:22:28,390 --> 00:22:28,400 persisting. Soil micromorphology at 1311 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,470 persisting. Soil micromorphology at Shara confirms that because of 1312 00:22:30,470 --> 00:22:30,480 Shara confirms that because of 1313 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,630 Shara confirms that because of agriculture, the woodland was stripped 1314 00:22:32,630 --> 00:22:32,640 agriculture, the woodland was stripped 1315 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,789 agriculture, the woodland was stripped and the organic matter was lost while 1316 00:22:34,789 --> 00:22:34,799 and the organic matter was lost while 1317 00:22:34,799 --> 00:22:37,430 and the organic matter was lost while the soil thinned, reddened and calcified 1318 00:22:37,430 --> 00:22:37,440 the soil thinned, reddened and calcified 1319 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,070 the soil thinned, reddened and calcified over centuries of intensive use. As the 1320 00:22:40,070 --> 00:22:40,080 over centuries of intensive use. As the 1321 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,549 over centuries of intensive use. As the centuries passed, the soil erosion and 1322 00:22:42,549 --> 00:22:42,559 centuries passed, the soil erosion and 1323 00:22:42,559 --> 00:22:44,549 centuries passed, the soil erosion and climate conditions worsened, which is 1324 00:22:44,549 --> 00:22:44,559 climate conditions worsened, which is 1325 00:22:44,559 --> 00:22:46,630 climate conditions worsened, which is evidenced by the changing pollen record 1326 00:22:46,630 --> 00:22:46,640 evidenced by the changing pollen record 1327 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,950 evidenced by the changing pollen record and the diminishing tree remains. The 1328 00:22:48,950 --> 00:22:48,960 and the diminishing tree remains. The 1329 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,630 and the diminishing tree remains. The land and the people were failing 1330 00:22:50,630 --> 00:22:50,640 land and the people were failing 1331 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,190 land and the people were failing together across centuries long before 1332 00:22:53,190 --> 00:22:53,200 together across centuries long before 1333 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,750 together across centuries long before the end. Growut at all state that the 1334 00:22:55,750 --> 00:22:55,760 the end. Growut at all state that the 1335 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,669 the end. Growut at all state that the chronological modeling indicates the 1336 00:22:57,669 --> 00:22:57,679 chronological modeling indicates the 1337 00:22:57,679 --> 00:22:59,990 chronological modeling indicates the decline of temple period society over 1338 00:22:59,990 --> 00:23:00,000 decline of temple period society over 1339 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,909 decline of temple period society over several centuries before the so-called 1340 00:23:01,909 --> 00:23:01,919 several centuries before the so-called 1341 00:23:01,919 --> 00:23:05,029 several centuries before the so-called 4.2Ka event. The population was already 1342 00:23:05,029 --> 00:23:05,039 4.2Ka event. The population was already 1343 00:23:05,039 --> 00:23:07,430 4.2Ka event. The population was already in advanced decline from internal 1344 00:23:07,430 --> 00:23:07,440 in advanced decline from internal 1345 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,270 in advanced decline from internal environmental collapse before that 1346 00:23:09,270 --> 00:23:09,280 environmental collapse before that 1347 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,430 environmental collapse before that external pressure arrived. The collapse 1348 00:23:11,430 --> 00:23:11,440 external pressure arrived. The collapse 1349 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,190 external pressure arrived. The collapse did not happen in the blink of an eye 1350 00:23:13,190 --> 00:23:13,200 did not happen in the blink of an eye 1351 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,430 did not happen in the blink of an eye and it was not mysterious. It was the 1352 00:23:15,430 --> 00:23:15,440 and it was not mysterious. It was the 1353 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,590 and it was not mysterious. It was the predictable outcome of a dense 1354 00:23:17,590 --> 00:23:17,600 predictable outcome of a dense 1355 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,830 predictable outcome of a dense population that had been overarming a 1356 00:23:19,830 --> 00:23:19,840 population that had been overarming a 1357 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,149 population that had been overarming a small island with finite soil resources 1358 00:23:22,149 --> 00:23:22,159 small island with finite soil resources 1359 00:23:22,159 --> 00:23:24,950 small island with finite soil resources for generations. So, as you can see, the 1360 00:23:24,950 --> 00:23:24,960 for generations. So, as you can see, the 1361 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,750 for generations. So, as you can see, the pollen record, the soil micromorphology, 1362 00:23:27,750 --> 00:23:27,760 pollen record, the soil micromorphology, 1363 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,750 pollen record, the soil micromorphology, and the geoarchchaeological survey 1364 00:23:29,750 --> 00:23:29,760 and the geoarchchaeological survey 1365 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,390 and the geoarchchaeological survey across multiple Maltese sites all 1366 00:23:32,390 --> 00:23:32,400 across multiple Maltese sites all 1367 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,430 across multiple Maltese sites all document intensive sustained farming 1368 00:23:35,430 --> 00:23:35,440 document intensive sustained farming 1369 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,430 document intensive sustained farming that degraded the island's soil from the 1370 00:23:37,430 --> 00:23:37,440 that degraded the island's soil from the 1371 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:39,830 that degraded the island's soil from the early 4th millennium B.CE onward. 1372 00:23:39,830 --> 00:23:39,840 early 4th millennium B.CE onward. 1373 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,230 early 4th millennium B.CE onward. Large-scale domestic agriculture existed 1374 00:23:42,230 --> 00:23:42,240 Large-scale domestic agriculture existed 1375 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,470 Large-scale domestic agriculture existed to such an extreme extent that it was 1376 00:23:44,470 --> 00:23:44,480 to such an extreme extent that it was 1377 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,230 to such an extreme extent that it was one of the key factors in this 1378 00:23:46,230 --> 00:23:46,240 one of the key factors in this 1379 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,110 one of the key factors in this civilization's collapse. So Mikey, when 1380 00:23:49,110 --> 00:23:49,120 civilization's collapse. So Mikey, when 1381 00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:51,909 civilization's collapse. So Mikey, when you say no evidence of large-scale 1382 00:23:51,909 --> 00:23:51,919 you say no evidence of large-scale 1383 00:23:51,919 --> 00:23:53,830 you say no evidence of large-scale agriculture, what you're telling 1384 00:23:53,830 --> 00:23:53,840 agriculture, what you're telling 1385 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,149 agriculture, what you're telling everyone is that you're either a [\h__\h] 1386 00:23:56,149 --> 00:23:56,159 everyone is that you're either a [\h__\h] 1387 00:23:56,159 --> 00:23:58,070 everyone is that you're either a [\h__\h] idiot who has never spent even 10 1388 00:23:58,070 --> 00:23:58,080 idiot who has never spent even 10 1389 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,310 idiot who has never spent even 10 seconds looking into this topic or 1390 00:24:00,310 --> 00:24:00,320 seconds looking into this topic or 1391 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,149 seconds looking into this topic or you're a worthless fraud lying through 1392 00:24:02,149 --> 00:24:02,159 you're a worthless fraud lying through 1393 00:24:02,159 --> 00:24:04,070 you're a worthless fraud lying through your teeth. Then there's arguably the 1394 00:24:04,070 --> 00:24:04,080 your teeth. Then there's arguably the 1395 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:05,669 your teeth. Then there's arguably the most impressive construction on the 1396 00:24:05,669 --> 00:24:05,679 most impressive construction on the 1397 00:24:05,679 --> 00:24:07,990 most impressive construction on the island, the mysterious hyperge. The 1398 00:24:07,990 --> 00:24:08,000 island, the mysterious hyperge. The 1399 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,230 island, the mysterious hyperge. The hypergeim is a multi-level subterranean 1400 00:24:10,230 --> 00:24:10,240 hypergeim is a multi-level subterranean 1401 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,149 hypergeim is a multi-level subterranean structure carved directly into solid 1402 00:24:12,149 --> 00:24:12,159 structure carved directly into solid 1403 00:24:12,159 --> 00:24:14,310 structure carved directly into solid limestone. It has three levels, and the 1404 00:24:14,310 --> 00:24:14,320 limestone. It has three levels, and the 1405 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,029 limestone. It has three levels, and the deepest reaches about 12 m underground. 1406 00:24:17,029 --> 00:24:17,039 deepest reaches about 12 m underground. 1407 00:24:17,039 --> 00:24:18,789 deepest reaches about 12 m underground. This is deeper than most modern subway 1408 00:24:18,789 --> 00:24:18,799 This is deeper than most modern subway 1409 00:24:18,799 --> 00:24:21,029 This is deeper than most modern subway systems. This architecture has no known 1410 00:24:21,029 --> 00:24:21,039 systems. This architecture has no known 1411 00:24:21,039 --> 00:24:23,029 systems. This architecture has no known precedent and is dated to the very 1412 00:24:23,029 --> 00:24:23,039 precedent and is dated to the very 1413 00:24:23,039 --> 00:24:24,710 precedent and is dated to the very beginning of this culture's arrival in 1414 00:24:24,710 --> 00:24:24,720 beginning of this culture's arrival in 1415 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,710 beginning of this culture's arrival in Malta. So, how did they immediately have 1416 00:24:26,710 --> 00:24:26,720 Malta. So, how did they immediately have 1417 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,710 Malta. So, how did they immediately have the skill to build such a project? And 1418 00:24:28,710 --> 00:24:28,720 the skill to build such a project? And 1419 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,390 the skill to build such a project? And is this really possible with stone 1420 00:24:30,390 --> 00:24:30,400 is this really possible with stone 1421 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,870 is this really possible with stone chisels? The hypo gamm was not dated to 1422 00:24:32,870 --> 00:24:32,880 chisels? The hypo gamm was not dated to 1423 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,630 chisels? The hypo gamm was not dated to the very beginning of anything. He is 1424 00:24:34,630 --> 00:24:34,640 the very beginning of anything. He is 1425 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,870 the very beginning of anything. He is once again misquing his source. He is 1426 00:24:36,870 --> 00:24:36,880 once again misquing his source. He is 1427 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,789 once again misquing his source. He is highlighting the date when the earliest 1428 00:24:38,789 --> 00:24:38,799 highlighting the date when the earliest 1429 00:24:38,799 --> 00:24:41,110 highlighting the date when the earliest remains were found at the site. That is 1430 00:24:41,110 --> 00:24:41,120 remains were found at the site. That is 1431 00:24:41,120 --> 00:24:43,110 remains were found at the site. That is not the date of construction. It is the 1432 00:24:43,110 --> 00:24:43,120 not the date of construction. It is the 1433 00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:45,350 not the date of construction. It is the date of the earliest biological material 1434 00:24:45,350 --> 00:24:45,360 date of the earliest biological material 1435 00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:47,669 date of the earliest biological material deposited at the site. It says it right 1436 00:24:47,669 --> 00:24:47,679 deposited at the site. It says it right 1437 00:24:47,679 --> 00:24:50,549 deposited at the site. It says it right there, earliest remains or when people 1438 00:24:50,549 --> 00:24:50,559 there, earliest remains or when people 1439 00:24:50,559 --> 00:24:52,789 there, earliest remains or when people were first there. The hypoggeum, like 1440 00:24:52,789 --> 00:24:52,799 were first there. The hypoggeum, like 1441 00:24:52,799 --> 00:24:54,710 were first there. The hypoggeum, like many Neolithic monuments in Malta and 1442 00:24:54,710 --> 00:24:54,720 many Neolithic monuments in Malta and 1443 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,870 many Neolithic monuments in Malta and elsewhere, almost certainly began as a 1444 00:24:56,870 --> 00:24:56,880 elsewhere, almost certainly began as a 1445 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,110 elsewhere, almost certainly began as a natural cave or simple rock cut cavity 1446 00:24:59,110 --> 00:24:59,120 natural cave or simple rock cut cavity 1447 00:24:59,120 --> 00:25:01,590 natural cave or simple rock cut cavity used for the dead. A practice documented 1448 00:25:01,590 --> 00:25:01,600 used for the dead. A practice documented 1449 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,830 used for the dead. A practice documented extensively in the Zebug phase, which 1450 00:25:03,830 --> 00:25:03,840 extensively in the Zebug phase, which 1451 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,230 extensively in the Zebug phase, which predates the temple period entirely. The 1452 00:25:06,230 --> 00:25:06,240 predates the temple period entirely. The 1453 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,029 predates the temple period entirely. The Wikipedia page he's showing explicitly 1454 00:25:09,029 --> 00:25:09,039 Wikipedia page he's showing explicitly 1455 00:25:09,039 --> 00:25:11,190 Wikipedia page he's showing explicitly states that the hypoggeum dates to the 1456 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:11,200 states that the hypoggeum dates to the 1457 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,230 states that the hypoggeum dates to the Sphini phase listed here as 3,300 to 1458 00:25:14,230 --> 00:25:14,240 Sphini phase listed here as 3,300 to 1459 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,870 Sphini phase listed here as 3,300 to 3000 B.CE, which already contradicts 1460 00:25:16,870 --> 00:25:16,880 3000 B.CE, which already contradicts 1461 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,870 3000 B.CE, which already contradicts what he said. But it gets even worse for 1462 00:25:18,870 --> 00:25:18,880 what he said. But it gets even worse for 1463 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,430 what he said. But it gets even worse for him since this range is outdated. Newer 1464 00:25:21,430 --> 00:25:21,440 him since this range is outdated. Newer 1465 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,430 him since this range is outdated.

In this instance, I think Mike is both 1480 00:25:39,669 --> 00:25:39,679 this instance, I think Mike is both 1481 00:25:39,679 --> 00:25:42,070 this instance, I think Mike is both totally clueless about this research and 1482 00:25:42,070 --> 00:25:42,080 totally clueless about this research and 1483 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,549 totally clueless about this research and also deliberately lying by highlighting 1484 00:25:44,549 --> 00:25:44,559 also deliberately lying by highlighting 1485 00:25:44,559 --> 00:25:46,870 also deliberately lying by highlighting this earliest remains date when at the 1486 00:25:46,870 --> 00:25:46,880 this earliest remains date when at the 1487 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,110 this earliest remains date when at the top of that same page, it offers a 1488 00:25:49,110 --> 00:25:49,120 top of that same page, it offers a 1489 00:25:49,120 --> 00:25:51,190 top of that same page, it offers a totally different time frame. Even more 1490 00:25:51,190 --> 00:25:51,200 totally different time frame. Even more 1491 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,029 totally different time frame. Even more mysteriously, some of the chambers are 1492 00:25:53,029 --> 00:25:53,039 mysteriously, some of the chambers are 1493 00:25:53,039 --> 00:25:54,789 mysteriously, some of the chambers are carved to create an acoustic resonance 1494 00:25:54,789 --> 00:25:54,799 carved to create an acoustic resonance 1495 00:25:54,799 --> 00:25:56,950 carved to create an acoustic resonance effect. A voice used at a frequency of 1496 00:25:56,950 --> 00:25:56,960 effect. A voice used at a frequency of 1497 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,029 effect. A voice used at a frequency of 110 hertz resonates throughout the 1498 00:25:59,029 --> 00:25:59,039 110 hertz resonates throughout the 1499 00:25:59,039 --> 00:26:01,350 110 hertz resonates throughout the entire underground complex, creating a 1500 00:26:01,350 --> 00:26:01,360 entire underground complex, creating a 1501 00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:03,909 entire underground complex, creating a powerful vibrating echo that can be felt 1502 00:26:03,909 --> 00:26:03,919 powerful vibrating echo that can be felt 1503 00:26:03,919 --> 00:26:05,669 powerful vibrating echo that can be felt as much as heard. This acoustic 1504 00:26:05,669 --> 00:26:05,679 as much as heard. This acoustic 1505 00:26:05,679 --> 00:26:07,430 as much as heard. This acoustic phenomenon is thought to have induced 1506 00:26:07,430 --> 00:26:07,440 phenomenon is thought to have induced 1507 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,029 phenomenon is thought to have induced translike states or altered 1508 00:26:09,029 --> 00:26:09,039 translike states or altered 1509 00:26:09,039 --> 00:26:10,950 translike states or altered consciousness. But it again begs the 1510 00:26:10,950 --> 00:26:10,960 consciousness. But it again begs the 1511 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,663 consciousness. But it again begs the question, how were they so sophisticated 1512 00:26:12,663 --> 00:26:12,673 question, how were they so sophisticated 1513 00:26:12,673 --> 00:26:14,630 question, how were they so sophisticated [music] as to achieve this right at the 1514 00:26:14,630 --> 00:26:14,640 [music] as to achieve this right at the 1515 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,710 [music] as to achieve this right at the beginning of their civilization? To add 1516 00:26:16,710 --> 00:26:16,720 beginning of their civilization? To add 1517 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,710 beginning of their civilization? To add to the mystery, some human remains found 1518 00:26:18,710 --> 00:26:18,720 to the mystery, some human remains found 1519 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,950 to the mystery, some human remains found here were skulls with unusual elongation 1520 00:26:20,950 --> 00:26:20,960 here were skulls with unusual elongation 1521 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:22,870 here were skulls with unusual elongation and cranial features. Don't panic. I'm 1522 00:26:22,870 --> 00:26:22,880 and cranial features. Don't panic. I'm 1523 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,310 and cranial features. Don't panic. I'm not going to claim they're aliens, but 1524 00:26:24,310 --> 00:26:24,320 not going to claim they're aliens, but 1525 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,470 not going to claim they're aliens, but it adds to the mystery all the same. 1526 00:26:26,470 --> 00:26:26,480 it adds to the mystery all the same. 1527 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,029 it adds to the mystery all the same.

The paper contains multiple test results 1614 00:28:06,549 --> 00:28:06,559 paper contains multiple test results 1615 00:28:06,559 --> 00:28:08,710 paper contains multiple test results from controlled experiments using male 1616 00:28:08,710 --> 00:28:08,720 from controlled experiments using male 1617 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,630 from controlled experiments using male and female voices, both singing and 1618 00:28:10,630 --> 00:28:10,640 and female voices, both singing and 1619 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,190 and female voices, both singing and shouting, Irish frame drums, a bullhorn, 1620 00:28:13,190 --> 00:28:13,200 shouting, Irish frame drums, a bullhorn, 1621 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,350 shouting, Irish frame drums, a bullhorn, and a con shell. But he chose to show 1622 00:28:15,350 --> 00:28:15,360 and a con shell. But he chose to show 1623 00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:17,190 and a con shell. But he chose to show the baseline graph because he didn't 1624 00:28:17,190 --> 00:28:17,200 the baseline graph because he didn't 1625 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,190 the baseline graph because he didn't read the paper. He didn't even read the 1626 00:28:19,190 --> 00:28:19,200 read the paper. He didn't even read the 1627 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,430 read the paper. He didn't even read the caption of that figure. He just thought, 1628 00:28:21,430 --> 00:28:21,440 caption of that figure. He just thought, 1629 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,590 caption of that figure. He just thought, "Hey, cool looking graph. Make me look 1630 00:28:23,590 --> 00:28:23,600 "Hey, cool looking graph. Make me look 1631 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,310 "Hey, cool looking graph. Make me look smart." And finally, those skulls were 1632 00:28:26,310 --> 00:28:26,320 smart." And finally, those skulls were 1633 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,950 smart." And finally, those skulls were classified as being long-headed type, a 1634 00:28:28,950 --> 00:28:28,960 classified as being long-headed type, a 1635 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:30,870 classified as being long-headed type, a standard 20th century cranological 1636 00:28:30,870 --> 00:28:30,880 standard 20th century cranological 1637 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,909 standard 20th century cranological classification for docosephily. Skulls 1638 00:28:33,909 --> 00:28:33,919 classification for docosephily. Skulls 1639 00:28:33,919 --> 00:28:36,710 classification for docosephily. Skulls classified as docosphalic fall within 1640 00:28:36,710 --> 00:28:36,720 classified as docosphalic fall within 1641 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,029 classified as docosphalic fall within normal human variation and are found in 1642 00:28:39,029 --> 00:28:39,039 normal human variation and are found in 1643 00:28:39,039 --> 00:28:40,950 normal human variation and are found in living humans today. And then he says 1644 00:28:40,950 --> 00:28:40,960 living humans today. And then he says 1645 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,110 living humans today. And then he says he's not going to claim they are aliens 1646 00:28:43,110 --> 00:28:43,120 he's not going to claim they are aliens 1647 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:44,950 he's not going to claim they are aliens even though he just implied it. 1648 00:28:44,950 --> 00:28:44,960 even though he just implied it. 1649 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,430 even though he just implied it. Classical plausible deniability. Implies 1650 00:28:47,430 --> 00:28:47,440 Classical plausible deniability. Implies 1651 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,750 Classical plausible deniability. Implies it promptly disavows it to seem more 1652 00:28:49,750 --> 00:28:49,760 it promptly disavows it to seem more 1653 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,750 it promptly disavows it to seem more credible and the association is already 1654 00:28:51,750 --> 00:28:51,760 credible and the association is already 1655 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,909 credible and the association is already made for the gullible viewer. So, how do 1656 00:28:53,909 --> 00:28:53,919 made for the gullible viewer. So, how do 1657 00:28:53,919 --> 00:28:55,750 made for the gullible viewer. So, how do we account for the presence of these 1658 00:28:55,750 --> 00:28:55,760 we account for the presence of these 1659 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,230 we account for the presence of these astounding megalithic constructions with 1660 00:28:58,230 --> 00:28:58,240 astounding megalithic constructions with 1661 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,389 astounding megalithic constructions with no architectural antecedance, no 1662 00:29:00,389 --> 00:29:00,399 no architectural antecedance, no 1663 00:29:00,399 --> 00:29:02,630 no architectural antecedance, no civilizational buildup, and no evidence 1664 00:29:02,630 --> 00:29:02,640 civilizational buildup, and no evidence 1665 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,950 civilizational buildup, and no evidence of large-scale agriculture? As we've 1666 00:29:04,950 --> 00:29:04,960 of large-scale agriculture? As we've 1667 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,990 of large-scale agriculture? As we've discussed, false, false, false. Nothing 1668 00:29:07,990 --> 00:29:08,000 discussed, false, false, false. Nothing 1669 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:09,350 discussed, false, false, false. Nothing but lies from Mikey. 1670 00:29:09,350 --> 00:29:09,360 but lies from Mikey. 1671 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,830 but lies from Mikey. >> Is archaeology sure about these dates? 1672 00:29:11,830 --> 00:29:11,840 >> Is archaeology sure about these dates? 1673 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,269 >> Is archaeology sure about these dates? Well, let's now take a look at the 1674 00:29:13,269 --> 00:29:13,279 Well, let's now take a look at the 1675 00:29:13,279 --> 00:29:15,350 Well, let's now take a look at the science used to date the temples. The 1676 00:29:15,350 --> 00:29:15,360 science used to date the temples. The 1677 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:16,630 science used to date the temples. The primary method used to date the 1678 00:29:16,630 --> 00:29:16,640 primary method used to date the 1679 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,310 primary method used to date the megalithic temples of Malta is 1680 00:29:18,310 --> 00:29:18,320 megalithic temples of Malta is 1681 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,470 megalithic temples of Malta is radiocarbon dating. Archaeologists state 1682 00:29:20,470 --> 00:29:20,480 radiocarbon dating. Archaeologists state 1683 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,710 radiocarbon dating. Archaeologists state organic material like charcoal, bone, or 1684 00:29:22,710 --> 00:29:22,720 organic material like charcoal, bone, or 1685 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,710 organic material like charcoal, bone, or plant remains found in or near the 1686 00:29:24,710 --> 00:29:24,720 plant remains found in or near the 1687 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,950 plant remains found in or near the temple layers. The amount of carbon 14 1688 00:29:26,950 --> 00:29:26,960 temple layers. The amount of carbon 14 1689 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:28,789 temple layers. The amount of carbon 14 left in the material tells scientists 1690 00:29:28,789 --> 00:29:28,799 left in the material tells scientists 1691 00:29:28,799 --> 00:29:30,470 left in the material tells scientists how long it's been since the organism 1692 00:29:30,470 --> 00:29:30,480 how long it's been since the organism 1693 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,190 how long it's been since the organism died. At Moltus temples, however, only a 1694 00:29:33,190 --> 00:29:33,200 died. At Moltus temples, however, only a 1695 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,269 died. At Moltus temples, however, only a few radiocarbon samples have been taken, 1696 00:29:35,269 --> 00:29:35,279 few radiocarbon samples have been taken, 1697 00:29:35,279 --> 00:29:37,669 few radiocarbon samples have been taken, and crucially only from on top of or 1698 00:29:37,669 --> 00:29:37,679 and crucially only from on top of or 1699 00:29:37,679 --> 00:29:40,149 and crucially only from on top of or around the megaliths, not beneath. This 1700 00:29:40,149 --> 00:29:40,159 around the megaliths, not beneath. This 1701 00:29:40,159 --> 00:29:42,310 around the megaliths, not beneath. This is a key distinction. If these samples 1702 00:29:42,310 --> 00:29:42,320 is a key distinction. If these samples 1703 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,230 is a key distinction. If these samples were taken from beneath the stones, it 1704 00:29:44,230 --> 00:29:44,240 were taken from beneath the stones, it 1705 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:45,669 were taken from beneath the stones, it would prove that the stones were placed 1706 00:29:45,669 --> 00:29:45,679 would prove that the stones were placed 1707 00:29:45,679 --> 00:29:47,830 would prove that the stones were placed on top of and crucially after the 1708 00:29:47,830 --> 00:29:47,840 on top of and crucially after the 1709 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,070 on top of and crucially after the organic material was deposited. However, 1710 00:29:50,070 --> 00:29:50,080 organic material was deposited. However, 1711 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,630 organic material was deposited. However, only having dates from on or around the 1712 00:29:52,630 --> 00:29:52,640 only having dates from on or around the 1713 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,549 only having dates from on or around the megaliths doesn't really prove their 1714 00:29:54,549 --> 00:29:54,559 megaliths doesn't really prove their 1715 00:29:54,559 --> 00:29:56,950 megaliths doesn't really prove their age.

Grahamcock tells this lie 1724 00:30:05,029 --> 00:30:05,039 in a moment. Grahamcock tells this lie 1725 00:30:05,039 --> 00:30:07,029 in a moment. Grahamcock tells this lie and button blindly repeats it. But the 1726 00:30:07,029 --> 00:30:07,039 and button blindly repeats it. But the 1727 00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:08,870 and button blindly repeats it. But the rest is more subtle. take genuine 1728 00:30:08,870 --> 00:30:08,880 rest is more subtle. take genuine 1729 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,710 rest is more subtle. take genuine uncertainty in any scientific dating 1730 00:30:10,710 --> 00:30:10,720 uncertainty in any scientific dating 1731 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,789 uncertainty in any scientific dating program and reframe it as evidence that 1732 00:30:12,789 --> 00:30:12,799 program and reframe it as evidence that 1733 00:30:12,799 --> 00:30:14,470 program and reframe it as evidence that the entire chronological framework is 1734 00:30:14,470 --> 00:30:14,480 the entire chronological framework is 1735 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,870 the entire chronological framework is unreliable. First, there are not only a 1736 00:30:16,870 --> 00:30:16,880 unreliable. First, there are not only a 1737 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,350 unreliable. First, there are not only a few samples. He's lying. The Fragsus 1738 00:30:19,350 --> 00:30:19,360 few samples. He's lying. The Fragsus 1739 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,750 few samples. He's lying. The Fragsus project alone generated over 500 new 1740 00:30:21,750 --> 00:30:21,760 project alone generated over 500 new 1741 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,750 project alone generated over 500 new radiocarbon dates from Maltese temple 1742 00:30:23,750 --> 00:30:23,760 radiocarbon dates from Maltese temple 1743 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,389 radiocarbon dates from Maltese temple sites. They then synthesized multiple 1744 00:30:26,389 --> 00:30:26,399 sites. They then synthesized multiple 1745 00:30:26,399 --> 00:30:28,149 sites. They then synthesized multiple independent radiocarbon dates from 1746 00:30:28,149 --> 00:30:28,159 independent radiocarbon dates from 1747 00:30:28,159 --> 00:30:29,830 independent radiocarbon dates from multiple sites into a Beijing 1748 00:30:29,830 --> 00:30:29,840 multiple sites into a Beijing 1749 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,909 multiple sites into a Beijing chronological model.

So they are dating the 1794 00:31:21,029 --> 00:31:21,039 same site. So they are dating the 1795 00:31:21,039 --> 00:31:22,950 same site. So they are dating the precursor structures beneath the later 1796 00:31:22,950 --> 00:31:22,960 precursor structures beneath the later 1797 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,430 precursor structures beneath the later building phases. Exactly what Button 1798 00:31:25,430 --> 00:31:25,440 building phases. Exactly what Button 1799 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,990 building phases. Exactly what Button claims they don't do. Instead, he 1800 00:31:27,990 --> 00:31:28,000 claims they don't do. Instead, he 1801 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,470 claims they don't do. Instead, he suggests that a prior population built 1802 00:31:30,470 --> 00:31:30,480 suggests that a prior population built 1803 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,350 suggests that a prior population built around 30 to 33 megalithic structures 1804 00:31:33,350 --> 00:31:33,360 around 30 to 33 megalithic structures 1805 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,669 around 30 to 33 megalithic structures and then disappeared without leaving any 1806 00:31:35,669 --> 00:31:35,679 and then disappeared without leaving any 1807 00:31:35,679 --> 00:31:39,110 and then disappeared without leaving any tools, human remains, pottery, charcoal, 1808 00:31:39,110 --> 00:31:39,120 tools, human remains, pottery, charcoal, 1809 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,669 tools, human remains, pottery, charcoal, animal bone, construction debris, or any 1810 00:31:41,669 --> 00:31:41,679 animal bone, construction debris, or any 1811 00:31:41,679 --> 00:31:43,430 animal bone, construction debris, or any stratographic trace of any kind, 1812 00:31:43,430 --> 00:31:43,440 stratographic trace of any kind, 1813 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,990 stratographic trace of any kind, anywhere. Cool story, bro. The temples 1814 00:31:45,990 --> 00:31:46,000 anywhere. Cool story, bro. The temples 1815 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:47,110 anywhere. Cool story, bro. The temples could have already been there. 1816 00:31:47,110 --> 00:31:47,120 could have already been there. 1817 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,029 could have already been there. Archaeologists also analyze pottery 1818 00:31:49,029 --> 00:31:49,039 Archaeologists also analyze pottery 1819 00:31:49,039 --> 00:31:50,549 Archaeologists also analyze pottery styles, tools, and figurines. [music] 1820 00:31:50,549 --> 00:31:50,559 styles, tools, and figurines. [music] 1821 00:31:50,559 --> 00:31:52,310 styles, tools, and figurines. [music] Much of the pottery found at these sites 1822 00:31:52,310 --> 00:31:52,320 Much of the pottery found at these sites 1823 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:53,750 Much of the pottery found at these sites has been cross-dated with other 1824 00:31:53,750 --> 00:31:53,760 has been cross-dated with other 1825 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,669 has been cross-dated with other Mediterranean sites at the accepted 1826 00:31:55,669 --> 00:31:55,679 Mediterranean sites at the accepted 1827 00:31:55,679 --> 00:31:57,830 Mediterranean sites at the accepted date. But again, just because pottery 1828 00:31:57,830 --> 00:31:57,840 date. But again, just because pottery 1829 00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,830 date. But again, just because pottery was found from this period doesn't prove 1830 00:31:59,830 --> 00:31:59,840 was found from this period doesn't prove 1831 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,350 was found from this period doesn't prove that this was when the temples were 1832 00:32:01,350 --> 00:32:01,360 that this was when the temples were 1833 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,269 that this was when the temples were constructed. It just proves that people 1834 00:32:03,269 --> 00:32:03,279 constructed. It just proves that people 1835 00:32:03,279 --> 00:32:05,029 constructed. It just proves that people lived here at this time. There's no 1836 00:32:05,029 --> 00:32:05,039 lived here at this time. There's no 1837 00:32:05,039 --> 00:32:06,389 lived here at this time. There's no reason to suggest the culture 1838 00:32:06,389 --> 00:32:06,399 reason to suggest the culture 1839 00:32:06,399 --> 00:32:08,070 reason to suggest the culture responsible for the pottery couldn't 1840 00:32:08,070 --> 00:32:08,080 responsible for the pottery couldn't 1841 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,750 responsible for the pottery couldn't have found these sites already there, 1842 00:32:09,750 --> 00:32:09,760 have found these sites already there, 1843 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,830 have found these sites already there, inherited them, and used them in their 1844 00:32:11,830 --> 00:32:11,840 inherited them, and used them in their 1845 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,470 inherited them, and used them in their own society. His own pottery argument 1846 00:32:14,470 --> 00:32:14,480 own society. His own pottery argument 1847 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,110 own society. His own pottery argument dismantles his hypothesis. Pottery alone 1848 00:32:17,110 --> 00:32:17,120 dismantles his hypothesis. Pottery alone 1849 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,190 dismantles his hypothesis. Pottery alone does not date construction. That's true. 1850 00:32:19,190 --> 00:32:19,200 does not date construction. That's true. 1851 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,269 does not date construction. That's true. But he is dismissing one strand of a 1852 00:32:21,269 --> 00:32:21,279 But he is dismissing one strand of a 1853 00:32:21,279 --> 00:32:23,190 But he is dismissing one strand of a multistrand framework in which 1854 00:32:23,190 --> 00:32:23,200 multistrand framework in which 1855 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,509 multistrand framework in which radiocarbon dating, strategraphy, 1856 00:32:25,509 --> 00:32:25,519 radiocarbon dating, strategraphy, 1857 00:32:25,519 --> 00:32:28,149 radiocarbon dating, strategraphy, ceramic typology and architectural 1858 00:32:28,149 --> 00:32:28,159 ceramic typology and architectural 1859 00:32:28,159 --> 00:32:30,710 ceramic typology and architectural sequence analysis all converge on the 1860 00:32:30,710 --> 00:32:30,720 sequence analysis all converge on the 1861 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,110 sequence analysis all converge on the same chronology independently. The 1862 00:32:33,110 --> 00:32:33,120 same chronology independently. The 1863 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,750 same chronology independently. The ceramic sequence evolves alongside the 1864 00:32:35,750 --> 00:32:35,760 ceramic sequence evolves alongside the 1865 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,590 ceramic sequence evolves alongside the temple sequence in the same 1866 00:32:37,590 --> 00:32:37,600 temple sequence in the same 1867 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,230 temple sequence in the same stratographic layers at the same sites. 1868 00:32:40,230 --> 00:32:40,240 stratographic layers at the same sites. 1869 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:41,990 stratographic layers at the same sites. When multiple independent threads of 1870 00:32:41,990 --> 00:32:42,000 When multiple independent threads of 1871 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,070 When multiple independent threads of evidence all converge on the same 1872 00:32:44,070 --> 00:32:44,080 evidence all converge on the same 1873 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:45,990 evidence all converge on the same conclusion, the conclusion is 1874 00:32:45,990 --> 00:32:46,000 conclusion, the conclusion is 1875 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,389 conclusion, the conclusion is corroborated. That's how science works. 1876 00:32:48,389 --> 00:32:48,399 corroborated. That's how science works. 1877 00:32:48,399 --> 00:32:50,310 corroborated. That's how science works. On top of this, some geologists have 1878 00:32:50,310 --> 00:32:50,320 On top of this, some geologists have 1879 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,389 On top of this, some geologists have raised eyebrows at the extent of erosion 1880 00:32:52,389 --> 00:32:52,399 raised eyebrows at the extent of erosion 1881 00:32:52,399 --> 00:32:54,230 raised eyebrows at the extent of erosion on certain structures, especially 1882 00:32:54,230 --> 00:32:54,240 on certain structures, especially 1883 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,230 on certain structures, especially temples like Manadra, Hajakim, and 1884 00:32:56,230 --> 00:32:56,240 temples like Manadra, Hajakim, and 1885 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,310 temples like Manadra, Hajakim, and Gigantia. Some megaliths show signs of 1886 00:32:58,310 --> 00:32:58,320 Gigantia. Some megaliths show signs of 1887 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,070 Gigantia. Some megaliths show signs of deep weathering, including rounded 1888 00:33:00,070 --> 00:33:00,080 deep weathering, including rounded 1889 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,149 deep weathering, including rounded edges, pitted surfaces, and extensive 1890 00:33:02,149 --> 00:33:02,159 edges, pitted surfaces, and extensive 1891 00:33:02,159 --> 00:33:04,230 edges, pitted surfaces, and extensive limestone flaking. Critics argue this 1892 00:33:04,230 --> 00:33:04,240 limestone flaking. Critics argue this 1893 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:05,990 limestone flaking. Critics argue this level of erosion would typically take 1894 00:33:05,990 --> 00:33:06,000 level of erosion would typically take 1895 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,470 level of erosion would typically take much, much longer than 6,000 years, 1896 00:33:08,470 --> 00:33:08,480 much, much longer than 6,000 years, 1897 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:09,830 much, much longer than 6,000 years, especially considering Molar's 1898 00:33:09,830 --> 00:33:09,840 especially considering Molar's 1899 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,750 especially considering Molar's relatively dry climate. So once you 1900 00:33:11,750 --> 00:33:11,760 relatively dry climate. So once you 1901 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,590 relatively dry climate. So once you realize that there are no radiocarbon 1902 00:33:13,590 --> 00:33:13,600 realize that there are no radiocarbon 1903 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,269 realize that there are no radiocarbon dates from beneath the megaliths and 1904 00:33:15,269 --> 00:33:15,279 dates from beneath the megaliths and 1905 00:33:15,279 --> 00:33:16,710 dates from beneath the megaliths and that the erosion points to these 1906 00:33:16,710 --> 00:33:16,720 that the erosion points to these 1907 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:18,950 that the erosion points to these quarried stones being much older, the 1908 00:33:18,950 --> 00:33:18,960 quarried stones being much older, the 1909 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,710 quarried stones being much older, the mainstream dating of these complexes 1910 00:33:20,710 --> 00:33:20,720 mainstream dating of these complexes 1911 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,190 mainstream dating of these complexes starts to look less secure. All of the 1912 00:33:23,190 --> 00:33:23,200 starts to look less secure. All of the 1913 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,509 starts to look less secure. All of the Maltese megalithic structures are built 1914 00:33:25,509 --> 00:33:25,519 Maltese megalithic structures are built 1915 00:33:25,519 --> 00:33:28,310 Maltese megalithic structures are built from two types of limestone, globina and 1916 00:33:28,310 --> 00:33:28,320 from two types of limestone, globina and 1917 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,190 from two types of limestone, globina and coraline. Globina limestone is soft, 1918 00:33:31,190 --> 00:33:31,200 coraline. Globina limestone is soft, 1919 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,350 coraline. Globina limestone is soft, highly porous and extremely vulnerable 1920 00:33:33,350 --> 00:33:33,360 highly porous and extremely vulnerable 1921 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,430 highly porous and extremely vulnerable to salt crystallization weathering. 1922 00:33:35,430 --> 00:33:35,440 to salt crystallization weathering. 1923 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,190 to salt crystallization weathering. Malta is a small island in the 1924 00:33:37,190 --> 00:33:37,200 Malta is a small island in the 1925 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,190 Malta is a small island in the Mediterranean Sea and salt laden 1926 00:33:39,190 --> 00:33:39,200 Mediterranean Sea and salt laden 1927 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,029 Mediterranean Sea and salt laden moisture continuously penetrates the 1928 00:33:41,029 --> 00:33:41,039 moisture continuously penetrates the 1929 00:33:41,039 --> 00:33:43,110 moisture continuously penetrates the pores of the stone, crystallizes as 1930 00:33:43,110 --> 00:33:43,120 pores of the stone, crystallizes as 1931 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,350 pores of the stone, crystallizes as humidity fluctuates and shatters it from 1932 00:33:45,350 --> 00:33:45,360 humidity fluctuates and shatters it from 1933 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,269 humidity fluctuates and shatters it from the inside out. This produces the 1934 00:33:47,269 --> 00:33:47,279 the inside out. This produces the 1935 00:33:47,279 --> 00:33:50,070 the inside out. This produces the precise rounded edges, pitted surfaces, 1936 00:33:50,070 --> 00:33:50,080 precise rounded edges, pitted surfaces, 1937 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,630 precise rounded edges, pitted surfaces, and surface flaking Mikey describes as 1938 00:33:52,630 --> 00:33:52,640 and surface flaking Mikey describes as 1939 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,190 and surface flaking Mikey describes as suspicious. So, no, it is not evidence 1940 00:33:55,190 --> 00:33:55,200 suspicious. So, no, it is not evidence 1941 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,990 suspicious. So, no, it is not evidence of extraordinary age. No geologists have 1942 00:33:57,990 --> 00:33:58,000 of extraordinary age. No geologists have 1943 00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,990 of extraordinary age. No geologists have raised their eyebrows at it because they 1944 00:33:59,990 --> 00:34:00,000 raised their eyebrows at it because they 1945 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,389 raised their eyebrows at it because they actually understand rocks. This is the 1946 00:34:02,389 --> 00:34:02,399 actually understand rocks. This is the 1947 00:34:02,399 --> 00:34:04,950 actually understand rocks. This is the expected behavior of this specific stone 1948 00:34:04,950 --> 00:34:04,960 expected behavior of this specific stone 1949 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,430 expected behavior of this specific stone in this specific environment. Button 1950 00:34:07,430 --> 00:34:07,440 in this specific environment. Button 1951 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,430 in this specific environment. Button went to Hal Tarine, which is one of the 1952 00:34:09,430 --> 00:34:09,440 went to Hal Tarine, which is one of the 1953 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:10,950 went to Hal Tarine, which is one of the many temples covered by a large 1954 00:34:10,950 --> 00:34:10,960 many temples covered by a large 1955 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,190 many temples covered by a large protective shelter to combat ongoing 1956 00:34:13,190 --> 00:34:13,200 protective shelter to combat ongoing 1957 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,909 protective shelter to combat ongoing deterioration caused by Malta's climate 1958 00:34:15,909 --> 00:34:15,919 deterioration caused by Malta's climate 1959 00:34:15,919 --> 00:34:17,669 deterioration caused by Malta's climate because they are primarily built out of 1960 00:34:17,669 --> 00:34:17,679 because they are primarily built out of 1961 00:34:17,679 --> 00:34:20,310 because they are primarily built out of globina limestone. It says this at the 1962 00:34:20,310 --> 00:34:20,320 globina limestone. It says this at the 1963 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,790 globina limestone. It says this at the sites. Malta receives regular winter 1964 00:34:22,790 --> 00:34:22,800 sites. Malta receives regular winter 1965 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,270 sites. Malta receives regular winter rainfall, humidity averaging 76% 1966 00:34:25,270 --> 00:34:25,280 rainfall, humidity averaging 76% 1967 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,829 rainfall, humidity averaging 76% annually, and constant salt laden marine 1968 00:34:27,829 --> 00:34:27,839 annually, and constant salt laden marine 1969 00:34:27,839 --> 00:34:29,750 annually, and constant salt laden marine air from all directions. That marine 1970 00:34:29,750 --> 00:34:29,760 air from all directions. That marine 1971 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,069 air from all directions. That marine exposure is exactly what drives salt 1972 00:34:32,069 --> 00:34:32,079 exposure is exactly what drives salt 1973 00:34:32,079 --> 00:34:33,349 exposure is exactly what drives salt crystallization weathering in 1974 00:34:33,349 --> 00:34:33,359 crystallization weathering in 1975 00:34:33,359 --> 00:34:35,510 crystallization weathering in Mediterranean limestone structures. It 1976 00:34:35,510 --> 00:34:35,520 Mediterranean limestone structures. It 1977 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,349 Mediterranean limestone structures. It is not a dry climate in any meaningful 1978 00:34:37,349 --> 00:34:37,359 is not a dry climate in any meaningful 1979 00:34:37,359 --> 00:34:39,510 is not a dry climate in any meaningful geological sense. Again, nothing but 1980 00:34:39,510 --> 00:34:39,520 geological sense. Again, nothing but 1981 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,589 geological sense. Again, nothing but dumb [\h__\h] from Button here. It seems 1982 00:34:41,589 --> 00:34:41,599 dumb [\h__\h] from Button here. It seems 1983 00:34:41,599 --> 00:34:43,510 dumb [\h__\h] from Button here. It seems to me that the only reason these temples 1984 00:34:43,510 --> 00:34:43,520 to me that the only reason these temples 1985 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,430 to me that the only reason these temples are dated to this period is that they 1986 00:34:45,430 --> 00:34:45,440 are dated to this period is that they 1987 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,510 are dated to this period is that they can't be dated any earlier without 1988 00:34:47,510 --> 00:34:47,520 can't be dated any earlier without 1989 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,430 can't be dated any earlier without rewriting the established timeline of 1990 00:34:49,430 --> 00:34:49,440 rewriting the established timeline of 1991 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,270 rewriting the established timeline of human civilization. But the evidence 1992 00:34:51,270 --> 00:34:51,280 human civilization. But the evidence 1993 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,109 human civilization. But the evidence pointing to this date of construction is 1994 00:34:53,109 --> 00:34:53,119 pointing to this date of construction is 1995 00:34:53,119 --> 00:34:55,109 pointing to this date of construction is limited at best and the developmental 1996 00:34:55,109 --> 00:34:55,119 limited at best and the developmental 1997 00:34:55,119 --> 00:34:57,349 limited at best and the developmental timeline is nonsensical. So that raises 1998 00:34:57,349 --> 00:34:57,359 timeline is nonsensical. So that raises 1999 00:34:57,359 --> 00:35:00,069 timeline is nonsensical. So that raises the question, what if these temples, 2000 00:35:00,069 --> 00:35:00,079 the question, what if these temples, 2001 00:35:00,079 --> 00:35:03,270 the question, what if these temples, this megalithic culture was older? Well, 2002 00:35:03,270 --> 00:35:03,280 this megalithic culture was older? Well, 2003 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:04,870 this megalithic culture was older? Well, for this to be feasible, then there 2004 00:35:04,870 --> 00:35:04,880 for this to be feasible, then there 2005 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,630 for this to be feasible, then there would need to be older human presence on 2006 00:35:06,630 --> 00:35:06,640 would need to be older human presence on 2007 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,870 would need to be older human presence on the island. But is this even possible? 2008 00:35:08,870 --> 00:35:08,880 the island. But is this even possible? 2009 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,310 the island. But is this even possible? Well, it's not just possible. It's 2010 00:35:10,310 --> 00:35:10,320 Well, it's not just possible. It's 2011 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:11,910 Well, it's not just possible. It's arguably been proved. In a 2012 00:35:11,910 --> 00:35:11,920 arguably been proved. In a 2013 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,750 arguably been proved. In a groundbreaking new discovery announced 2014 00:35:13,750 --> 00:35:13,760 groundbreaking new discovery announced 2015 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,349 groundbreaking new discovery announced last week, archaeologists discovered 2016 00:35:15,349 --> 00:35:15,359 last week, archaeologists discovered 2017 00:35:15,359 --> 00:35:17,190 last week, archaeologists discovered cooked fish and deer bones along with 2018 00:35:17,190 --> 00:35:17,200 cooked fish and deer bones along with 2019 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,430 cooked fish and deer bones along with other organic and human-made materials, 2020 00:35:19,430 --> 00:35:19,440 other organic and human-made materials, 2021 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,510 other organic and human-made materials, indicating that humans inhabited mortar 2022 00:35:21,510 --> 00:35:21,520 indicating that humans inhabited mortar 2023 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,589 indicating that humans inhabited mortar well before the arrival of the Neolithic 2024 00:35:23,589 --> 00:35:23,599 well before the arrival of the Neolithic 2025 00:35:23,599 --> 00:35:25,430 well before the arrival of the Neolithic farmers. Extensive testing confirmed 2026 00:35:25,430 --> 00:35:25,440 farmers. Extensive testing confirmed 2027 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,150 farmers. Extensive testing confirmed that these remains are at least 8,500 2028 00:35:28,150 --> 00:35:28,160 that these remains are at least 8,500 2029 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,710 that these remains are at least 8,500 years old, possibly 9,000, pushing back 2030 00:35:30,710 --> 00:35:30,720 years old, possibly 9,000, pushing back 2031 00:35:30,720 --> 00:35:32,550 years old, possibly 9,000, pushing back the timeline of human activity on the 2032 00:35:32,550 --> 00:35:32,560 the timeline of human activity on the 2033 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,710 the timeline of human activity on the islands by a millennium. Not only does 2034 00:35:34,710 --> 00:35:34,720 islands by a millennium. Not only does 2035 00:35:34,720 --> 00:35:37,109 islands by a millennium. Not only does this rewrite Molar's prehistory, it also 2036 00:35:37,109 --> 00:35:37,119 this rewrite Molar's prehistory, it also 2037 00:35:37,119 --> 00:35:39,109 this rewrite Molar's prehistory, it also opens the door for human presence on the 2038 00:35:39,109 --> 00:35:39,119 opens the door for human presence on the 2039 00:35:39,119 --> 00:35:41,829 opens the door for human presence on the islands going back much further. This is 2040 00:35:41,829 --> 00:35:41,839 islands going back much further. This is 2041 00:35:41,839 --> 00:35:44,310 islands going back much further. This is the big payoff these frauds aim for in 2042 00:35:44,310 --> 00:35:44,320 the big payoff these frauds aim for in 2043 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,630 the big payoff these frauds aim for in every video. [\h__\h] is so much older than 2044 00:35:46,630 --> 00:35:46,640 every video. [\h__\h] is so much older than 2045 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,790 every video. [\h__\h] is so much older than we thought. So archaeologists are dumb 2046 00:35:48,790 --> 00:35:48,800 we thought. So archaeologists are dumb 2047 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,710 we thought. So archaeologists are dumb and wrong, and I'm way smarter than them 2048 00:35:50,710 --> 00:35:50,720 and wrong, and I'm way smarter than them 2049 00:35:50,720 --> 00:35:52,710 and wrong, and I'm way smarter than them for figuring this out. Well, it's all 2050 00:35:52,710 --> 00:35:52,720 for figuring this out. Well, it's all 2051 00:35:52,720 --> 00:35:54,630 for figuring this out. Well, it's all [\h__\h] Button claims the only reason 2052 00:35:54,630 --> 00:35:54,640 [\h__\h] Button claims the only reason 2053 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,470 [\h__\h] Button claims the only reason these temples are dated to this period 2054 00:35:56,470 --> 00:35:56,480 these temples are dated to this period 2055 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,470 these temples are dated to this period is that archaeology can't revise the 2056 00:35:58,470 --> 00:35:58,480 is that archaeology can't revise the 2057 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,550 is that archaeology can't revise the timeline without rewriting established 2058 00:36:00,550 --> 00:36:00,560 timeline without rewriting established 2059 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,550 timeline without rewriting established history. And then he immediately cites a 2060 00:36:02,550 --> 00:36:02,560 history. And then he immediately cites a 2061 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,030 history. And then he immediately cites a nature paper which did exactly that. 2062 00:36:05,030 --> 00:36:05,040 nature paper which did exactly that. 2063 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,109 nature paper which did exactly that. Human presence in Malta approximately 2064 00:36:07,109 --> 00:36:07,119 Human presence in Malta approximately 2065 00:36:07,119 --> 00:36:09,670 Human presence in Malta approximately 8,500 years ago was confirmed and the 2066 00:36:09,670 --> 00:36:09,680 8,500 years ago was confirmed and the 2067 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,630 8,500 years ago was confirmed and the timeline changed. Scientists did science 2068 00:36:12,630 --> 00:36:12,640 timeline changed. Scientists did science 2069 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,150 timeline changed. Scientists did science which changed what we know about 2070 00:36:14,150 --> 00:36:14,160 which changed what we know about 2071 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,790 which changed what we know about science. Unprecedented, I know. But more 2072 00:36:16,790 --> 00:36:16,800 science. Unprecedented, I know. But more 2073 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,710 science. Unprecedented, I know. But more importantly, this paper has no bearing 2074 00:36:18,710 --> 00:36:18,720 importantly, this paper has no bearing 2075 00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:20,550 importantly, this paper has no bearing on the temple dates. The humans 2076 00:36:20,550 --> 00:36:20,560 on the temple dates. The humans 2077 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,630 on the temple dates. The humans confirmed at Lotia Cave were hunter 2078 00:36:22,630 --> 00:36:22,640 confirmed at Lotia Cave were hunter 2079 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,470 confirmed at Lotia Cave were hunter gatherers who predate the temples by 2080 00:36:24,470 --> 00:36:24,480 gatherers who predate the temples by 2081 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,950 gatherers who predate the temples by 3,000 years. The temples themselves have 2082 00:36:26,950 --> 00:36:26,960 3,000 years. The temples themselves have 2083 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,270 3,000 years. The temples themselves have their own independent robust dating 2084 00:36:29,270 --> 00:36:29,280 their own independent robust dating 2085 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,589 their own independent robust dating evidence that has nothing to do with 2086 00:36:31,589 --> 00:36:31,599 evidence that has nothing to do with 2087 00:36:31,599 --> 00:36:33,829 evidence that has nothing to do with when humans first arrived on the island. 2088 00:36:33,829 --> 00:36:33,839 when humans first arrived on the island. 2089 00:36:33,839 --> 00:36:36,230 when humans first arrived on the island. Humans being there does not equal 2090 00:36:36,230 --> 00:36:36,240 Humans being there does not equal 2091 00:36:36,240 --> 00:36:38,069 Humans being there does not equal temples are older than the data says 2092 00:36:38,069 --> 00:36:38,079 temples are older than the data says 2093 00:36:38,079 --> 00:36:40,230 temples are older than the data says because reasons. Pathetic. But there's 2094 00:36:40,230 --> 00:36:40,240 because reasons. Pathetic. But there's 2095 00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:43,349 because reasons. Pathetic. But there's more. A 1917 discovery of a human tooth 2096 00:36:43,349 --> 00:36:43,359 more. A 1917 discovery of a human tooth 2097 00:36:43,359 --> 00:36:45,670 more. A 1917 discovery of a human tooth in the Kardam cave has sparked renewed 2098 00:36:45,670 --> 00:36:45,680 in the Kardam cave has sparked renewed 2099 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,829 in the Kardam cave has sparked renewed interest after modern analysis suggested 2100 00:36:47,829 --> 00:36:47,839 interest after modern analysis suggested 2101 00:36:47,839 --> 00:36:49,589 interest after modern analysis suggested it may belong to a Neanderthal. 2102 00:36:49,589 --> 00:36:49,599 it may belong to a Neanderthal. 2103 00:36:49,599 --> 00:36:51,109 it may belong to a Neanderthal. Researchers from the Natural History 2104 00:36:51,109 --> 00:36:51,119 Researchers from the Natural History 2105 00:36:51,119 --> 00:36:53,190 Researchers from the Natural History Museum in London identified traits 2106 00:36:53,190 --> 00:36:53,200 Museum in London identified traits 2107 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,109 Museum in London identified traits unique to Neanderthal teeth. If 2108 00:36:55,109 --> 00:36:55,119 unique to Neanderthal teeth. If 2109 00:36:55,119 --> 00:36:56,950 unique to Neanderthal teeth. If confirmed through DNA testing, this 2110 00:36:56,950 --> 00:36:56,960 confirmed through DNA testing, this 2111 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:58,790 confirmed through DNA testing, this would push back human presence in Malta 2112 00:36:58,790 --> 00:36:58,800 would push back human presence in Malta 2113 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,030 would push back human presence in Malta by around 30,000 years [music] and 2114 00:37:01,030 --> 00:37:01,040 by around 30,000 years [music] and 2115 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:02,550 by around 30,000 years [music] and suggest that Neanderthalss once 2116 00:37:02,550 --> 00:37:02,560 suggest that Neanderthalss once 2117 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,390 suggest that Neanderthalss once inhabited the island. Now, obviously, 2118 00:37:04,390 --> 00:37:04,400 inhabited the island. Now, obviously, 2119 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,310 inhabited the island. Now, obviously, these aren't homo sapiens. But if 2120 00:37:06,310 --> 00:37:06,320 these aren't homo sapiens. But if 2121 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,069 these aren't homo sapiens. But if Neanderthalss could reach these islands, 2122 00:37:08,069 --> 00:37:08,079 Neanderthalss could reach these islands, 2123 00:37:08,079 --> 00:37:10,069 Neanderthalss could reach these islands, there's nothing to suggest homo sapiens 2124 00:37:10,069 --> 00:37:10,079 there's nothing to suggest homo sapiens 2125 00:37:10,079 --> 00:37:11,910 there's nothing to suggest homo sapiens couldn't either. But how could these 2126 00:37:11,910 --> 00:37:11,920 couldn't either. But how could these 2127 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,150 couldn't either. But how could these early humans have possibly got here? 2128 00:37:14,150 --> 00:37:14,160 early humans have possibly got here? 2129 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,230 early humans have possibly got here? Well, Mortar wasn't always an island. 2130 00:37:16,230 --> 00:37:16,240 Well, Mortar wasn't always an island. 2131 00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:18,230 Well, Mortar wasn't always an island. During the last ice age, sea levels were 2132 00:37:18,230 --> 00:37:18,240 During the last ice age, sea levels were 2133 00:37:18,240 --> 00:37:20,630 During the last ice age, sea levels were over 100 m lower than they are today, 2134 00:37:20,630 --> 00:37:20,640 over 100 m lower than they are today, 2135 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,630 over 100 m lower than they are today, exposing vast stretches of land that are 2136 00:37:22,630 --> 00:37:22,640 exposing vast stretches of land that are 2137 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,550 exposing vast stretches of land that are now submerged. Mortar was connected to 2138 00:37:24,550 --> 00:37:24,560 now submerged. Mortar was connected to 2139 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,310 now submerged. Mortar was connected to Sicily, [music] making it accessible to 2140 00:37:26,310 --> 00:37:26,320 Sicily, [music] making it accessible to 2141 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,390 Sicily, [music] making it accessible to migrating humans and animals. Then as 2142 00:37:28,390 --> 00:37:28,400 migrating humans and animals. Then as 2143 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,390 migrating humans and animals. Then as the last ice age ended and glaciers 2144 00:37:30,390 --> 00:37:30,400 the last ice age ended and glaciers 2145 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,790 the last ice age ended and glaciers melted around 11,000 years ago, rising 2146 00:37:32,790 --> 00:37:32,800 melted around 11,000 years ago, rising 2147 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,790 melted around 11,000 years ago, rising seas gradually cut maltar off, turning 2148 00:37:34,790 --> 00:37:34,800 seas gradually cut maltar off, turning 2149 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,630 seas gradually cut maltar off, turning it into the isolated island we know 2150 00:37:36,630 --> 00:37:36,640 it into the isolated island we know 2151 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,550 it into the isolated island we know today. But if Neanderthalss could have 2152 00:37:38,550 --> 00:37:38,560 today. But if Neanderthalss could have 2153 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,470 today. But if Neanderthalss could have migrated across this landbridge, then 2154 00:37:40,470 --> 00:37:40,480 migrated across this landbridge, then 2155 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,870 migrated across this landbridge, then why couldn't Homo sapiens? If true, this 2156 00:37:42,870 --> 00:37:42,880 why couldn't Homo sapiens? If true, this 2157 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:44,710 why couldn't Homo sapiens? If true, this would completely rewrite human history 2158 00:37:44,710 --> 00:37:44,720 would completely rewrite human history 2159 00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:46,630 would completely rewrite human history on Malta and would put the accepted 2160 00:37:46,630 --> 00:37:46,640 on Malta and would put the accepted 2161 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:48,310 on Malta and would put the accepted dates of the megalithic construction 2162 00:37:48,310 --> 00:37:48,320 dates of the megalithic construction 2163 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,630 dates of the megalithic construction into serious jeopardy. If humans were on 2164 00:37:50,630 --> 00:37:50,640 into serious jeopardy. If humans were on 2165 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,150 into serious jeopardy. If humans were on the islands before the end of the last 2166 00:37:52,150 --> 00:37:52,160 the islands before the end of the last 2167 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:53,750 the islands before the end of the last ice [music] age, before the islands even 2168 00:37:53,750 --> 00:37:53,760 ice [music] age, before the islands even 2169 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:55,349 ice [music] age, before the islands even became islands, it would change 2170 00:37:55,349 --> 00:37:55,359 became islands, it would change 2171 00:37:55,359 --> 00:37:58,069 became islands, it would change everything. All [\h__\h] Two Todorant 2172 00:37:58,069 --> 00:37:58,079 everything. All [\h__\h] Two Todorant 2173 00:37:58,079 --> 00:38:01,190 everything. All [\h__\h] Two Todorant mers were found at Ardalam cave in 1917 2174 00:38:01,190 --> 00:38:01,200 mers were found at Ardalam cave in 1917 2175 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,589 mers were found at Ardalam cave in 1917 and assessed as potentially Neandertol 2176 00:38:03,589 --> 00:38:03,599 and assessed as potentially Neandertol 2177 00:38:03,599 --> 00:38:06,069 and assessed as potentially Neandertol on the basis of toodontism in the early 2178 00:38:06,069 --> 00:38:06,079 on the basis of toodontism in the early 2179 00:38:06,079 --> 00:38:08,390 on the basis of toodontism in the early 20th century. Todorontism was believed 2180 00:38:08,390 --> 00:38:08,400 20th century. Todorontism was believed 2181 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,069 20th century. Todorontism was believed to be a characteristic exclusive to 2182 00:38:10,069 --> 00:38:10,079 to be a characteristic exclusive to 2183 00:38:10,079 --> 00:38:12,310 to be a characteristic exclusive to Neanderls and an extinct archaic 2184 00:38:12,310 --> 00:38:12,320 Neanderls and an extinct archaic 2185 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,470 Neanderls and an extinct archaic feature. This has since been disproven. 2186 00:38:14,470 --> 00:38:14,480 feature. This has since been disproven. 2187 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,550 feature. This has since been disproven. It occurs in other archaic hominins and 2188 00:38:16,550 --> 00:38:16,560 It occurs in other archaic hominins and 2189 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,109 It occurs in other archaic hominins and in modern homo sapiens. Radiocarbon 2190 00:38:19,109 --> 00:38:19,119 in modern homo sapiens. Radiocarbon 2191 00:38:19,119 --> 00:38:20,710 in modern homo sapiens. Radiocarbon dating of the teeth by Sir Kenneth 2192 00:38:20,710 --> 00:38:20,720 dating of the teeth by Sir Kenneth 2193 00:38:20,720 --> 00:38:22,950 dating of the teeth by Sir Kenneth Oakley at the British Museum placed them 2194 00:38:22,950 --> 00:38:22,960 Oakley at the British Museum placed them 2195 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,430 Oakley at the British Museum placed them within the Neolithic period roughly 5200 2196 00:38:25,430 --> 00:38:25,440 within the Neolithic period roughly 5200 2197 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,990 within the Neolithic period roughly 5200 to 2500 B.CE. E. But even if the teeth 2198 00:38:27,990 --> 00:38:28,000 to 2500 B.CE. E. But even if the teeth 2199 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,069 to 2500 B.CE. E. But even if the teeth were Neanderl, his conclusion still 2200 00:38:30,069 --> 00:38:30,079 were Neanderl, his conclusion still 2201 00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:32,230 were Neanderl, his conclusion still doesn't follow. Neanderl presence on 2202 00:38:32,230 --> 00:38:32,240 doesn't follow. Neanderl presence on 2203 00:38:32,240 --> 00:38:35,109 doesn't follow. Neanderl presence on Malta would say nothing about when Homo 2204 00:38:35,109 --> 00:38:35,119 Malta would say nothing about when Homo 2205 00:38:35,119 --> 00:38:37,109 Malta would say nothing about when Homo sapiens arrived, and it would not tell 2206 00:38:37,109 --> 00:38:37,119 sapiens arrived, and it would not tell 2207 00:38:37,119 --> 00:38:39,109 sapiens arrived, and it would not tell you anything about when the temples were 2208 00:38:39,109 --> 00:38:39,119 you anything about when the temples were 2209 00:38:39,119 --> 00:38:40,630 you anything about when the temples were built. I can't believe I got this far 2210 00:38:40,630 --> 00:38:40,640 built. I can't believe I got this far 2211 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,230 built. I can't believe I got this far into the video without mentioning cart 2212 00:38:42,230 --> 00:38:42,240 into the video without mentioning cart 2213 00:38:42,240 --> 00:38:43,990 into the video without mentioning cart ruts. But let's get into this now. One 2214 00:38:43,990 --> 00:38:44,000 ruts. But let's get into this now. One 2215 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,829 ruts. But let's get into this now. One of Molar's most baffling mysteries is 2216 00:38:45,829 --> 00:38:45,839 of Molar's most baffling mysteries is 2217 00:38:45,839 --> 00:38:47,910 of Molar's most baffling mysteries is the network of ancient parallel lines 2218 00:38:47,910 --> 00:38:47,920 the network of ancient parallel lines 2219 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:49,510 the network of ancient parallel lines etched into the island's limestone. 2220 00:38:49,510 --> 00:38:49,520 etched into the island's limestone. 2221 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,430 etched into the island's limestone. There is no agreed explanation for them. 2222 00:38:51,430 --> 00:38:51,440 There is no agreed explanation for them. 2223 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,349 There is no agreed explanation for them. They're clearly man-made, carved deep 2224 00:38:53,349 --> 00:38:53,359 They're clearly man-made, carved deep 2225 00:38:53,359 --> 00:38:55,589 They're clearly man-made, carved deep into the rock, sometimes up to almost a 2226 00:38:55,589 --> 00:38:55,599 into the rock, sometimes up to almost a 2227 00:38:55,599 --> 00:38:57,349 into the rock, sometimes up to almost a meter deep, and they crisscross the 2228 00:38:57,349 --> 00:38:57,359 meter deep, and they crisscross the 2229 00:38:57,359 --> 00:38:59,510 meter deep, and they crisscross the island in strange overlapping patterns. 2230 00:38:59,510 --> 00:38:59,520 island in strange overlapping patterns. 2231 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,510 island in strange overlapping patterns. Were they used for transport? Possibly, 2232 00:39:01,510 --> 00:39:01,520 Were they used for transport? Possibly, 2233 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,589 Were they used for transport? Possibly, but we have no idea what kind of vehicle 2234 00:39:03,589 --> 00:39:03,599 but we have no idea what kind of vehicle 2235 00:39:03,599 --> 00:39:05,349 but we have no idea what kind of vehicle or sledge could have created such 2236 00:39:05,349 --> 00:39:05,359 or sledge could have created such 2237 00:39:05,359 --> 00:39:07,589 or sledge could have created such consistent grooves, or why they run so 2238 00:39:07,589 --> 00:39:07,599 consistent grooves, or why they run so 2239 00:39:07,599 --> 00:39:09,510 consistent grooves, or why they run so deep. And remember, this civilization 2240 00:39:09,510 --> 00:39:09,520 deep. And remember, this civilization 2241 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,349 deep. And remember, this civilization wasn't supposed to have the wheel. Some 2242 00:39:11,349 --> 00:39:11,359 wasn't supposed to have the wheel. Some 2243 00:39:11,359 --> 00:39:13,589 wasn't supposed to have the wheel. Some ruts even mysteriously run straight off 2244 00:39:13,589 --> 00:39:13,599 ruts even mysteriously run straight off 2245 00:39:13,599 --> 00:39:15,430 ruts even mysteriously run straight off cliffs and continue underwater, 2246 00:39:15,430 --> 00:39:15,440 cliffs and continue underwater, 2247 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:16,950 cliffs and continue underwater, stretching for hundreds of meters 2248 00:39:16,950 --> 00:39:16,960 stretching for hundreds of meters 2249 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,630 stretching for hundreds of meters beneath the sea. The fact they head off 2250 00:39:18,630 --> 00:39:18,640 beneath the sea. The fact they head off 2251 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:20,710 beneath the sea. The fact they head off under the ocean is especially baffling. 2252 00:39:20,710 --> 00:39:20,720 under the ocean is especially baffling. 2253 00:39:20,720 --> 00:39:22,150 under the ocean is especially baffling. Why would the ancient builders want to 2254 00:39:22,150 --> 00:39:22,160 Why would the ancient builders want to 2255 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,630 Why would the ancient builders want to do this? And how? Well, perhaps they 2256 00:39:24,630 --> 00:39:24,640 do this? And how? Well, perhaps they 2257 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,230 do this? And how? Well, perhaps they weren't underwater when they were 2258 00:39:26,230 --> 00:39:26,240 weren't underwater when they were 2259 00:39:26,240 --> 00:39:28,390 weren't underwater when they were carved. Perhaps they were carved much 2260 00:39:28,390 --> 00:39:28,400 carved. Perhaps they were carved much 2261 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,630 carved. Perhaps they were carved much earlier when sea levels were lower. This 2262 00:39:30,630 --> 00:39:30,640 earlier when sea levels were lower. This 2263 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,390 earlier when sea levels were lower. This links to the mystery of the underwater 2264 00:39:32,390 --> 00:39:32,400 links to the mystery of the underwater 2265 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,150 links to the mystery of the underwater temples, structures off the coast of 2266 00:39:34,150 --> 00:39:34,160 temples, structures off the coast of 2267 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,150 temples, structures off the coast of Malta that some researchers believe may 2268 00:39:36,150 --> 00:39:36,160 Malta that some researchers believe may 2269 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:37,829 Malta that some researchers believe may be ancient megalithic sites now 2270 00:39:37,829 --> 00:39:37,839 be ancient megalithic sites now 2271 00:39:37,839 --> 00:39:39,510 be ancient megalithic sites now submerged. Divers have reported 2272 00:39:39,510 --> 00:39:39,520 submerged. Divers have reported 2273 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,270 submerged. Divers have reported formations that resemble large stone 2274 00:39:41,270 --> 00:39:41,280 formations that resemble large stone 2275 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,430 formations that resemble large stone blocks arranged in unnatural patterns, 2276 00:39:43,430 --> 00:39:43,440 blocks arranged in unnatural patterns, 2277 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,270 blocks arranged in unnatural patterns, possibly foundations or walls. 2278 00:39:45,270 --> 00:39:45,280 possibly foundations or walls. 2279 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,030 possibly foundations or walls. Mainstream archaeology disputes this, 2280 00:39:47,030 --> 00:39:47,040 Mainstream archaeology disputes this, 2281 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:48,630 Mainstream archaeology disputes this, suggesting they might be natural. But 2282 00:39:48,630 --> 00:39:48,640 suggesting they might be natural. But 2283 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,150 suggesting they might be natural. But others argue that the symmetry and 2284 00:39:50,150 --> 00:39:50,160 others argue that the symmetry and 2285 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:51,990 others argue that the symmetry and alignment point to human construction. 2286 00:39:51,990 --> 00:39:52,000 alignment point to human construction. 2287 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,069 alignment point to human construction. If they are man-made, and it's an if, it 2288 00:39:54,069 --> 00:39:54,079 If they are man-made, and it's an if, it 2289 00:39:54,079 --> 00:39:55,670 If they are man-made, and it's an if, it would mean temples or settlements were 2290 00:39:55,670 --> 00:39:55,680 would mean temples or settlements were 2291 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,829 would mean temples or settlements were built before the end of the last ice age 2292 00:39:57,829 --> 00:39:57,839 built before the end of the last ice age 2293 00:39:57,839 --> 00:39:59,829 built before the end of the last ice age when sea levels were far lower, placing 2294 00:39:59,829 --> 00:39:59,839 when sea levels were far lower, placing 2295 00:39:59,839 --> 00:40:02,310 when sea levels were far lower, placing their origin more than 10,000 years ago, 2296 00:40:02,310 --> 00:40:02,320 their origin more than 10,000 years ago, 2297 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,150 their origin more than 10,000 years ago, long before Molar's known temple 2298 00:40:04,150 --> 00:40:04,160 long before Molar's known temple 2299 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,390 long before Molar's known temple builders. Holy [\h__\h] this is just like 2300 00:40:06,390 --> 00:40:06,400 builders. Holy [\h__\h] this is just like 2301 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,550 builders. Holy [\h__\h] this is just like Grahamcock's thing. Super old, super 2302 00:40:08,550 --> 00:40:08,560 Grahamcock's thing. Super old, super 2303 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,030 Grahamcock's thing. Super old, super crazy, awesome civilizations. Mikey is 2304 00:40:11,030 --> 00:40:11,040 crazy, awesome civilizations. Mikey is 2305 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,430 crazy, awesome civilizations. Mikey is crushing it Grahamcock style. Except not 2306 00:40:13,430 --> 00:40:13,440 crushing it Grahamcock style. Except not 2307 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,349 crushing it Grahamcock style. Except not even a little bit. He's just lying as 2308 00:40:15,349 --> 00:40:15,359 even a little bit. He's just lying as 2309 00:40:15,359 --> 00:40:17,349 even a little bit. He's just lying as always. The cart ruts do not extend 2310 00:40:17,349 --> 00:40:17,359 always. The cart ruts do not extend 2311 00:40:17,359 --> 00:40:18,870 always. The cart ruts do not extend under the sea for hundreds of meters. 2312 00:40:18,870 --> 00:40:18,880 under the sea for hundreds of meters. 2313 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,270 under the sea for hundreds of meters. That's a lie. Then he refers to some 2314 00:40:21,270 --> 00:40:21,280 That's a lie. Then he refers to some 2315 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,109 That's a lie. Then he refers to some researchers. Want to get a little more 2316 00:40:23,109 --> 00:40:23,119 researchers. Want to get a little more 2317 00:40:23,119 --> 00:40:25,190 researchers. Want to get a little more specific there, champ? There's only one 2318 00:40:25,190 --> 00:40:25,200 specific there, champ? There's only one 2319 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,589 specific there, champ?

I'm not sure how many levels there are, but I 2356 00:41:07,510 --> 00:41:07,520 sure how many levels there are, but I 2357 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,670 sure how many levels there are, but I think that's pretty good. Zidlemire 2358 00:41:09,670 --> 00:41:09,680 think that's pretty good. Zidlemire 2359 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,750 think that's pretty good. Zidlemire announced the discovery of the Maltese 2360 00:41:11,750 --> 00:41:11,760 announced the discovery of the Maltese 2361 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,470 announced the discovery of the Maltese underwater temple at a Paleo astronaut 2362 00:41:14,470 --> 00:41:14,480 underwater temple at a Paleo astronaut 2363 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,150 underwater temple at a Paleo astronaut conference.

Lucky 2376 00:41:32,630 --> 00:41:32,640 who he met personally on Malta. Lucky 2377 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,150 who he met personally on Malta. Lucky guy, huh? This jerk and this jerk alone 2378 00:41:36,150 --> 00:41:36,160 guy, huh? This jerk and this jerk alone 2379 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,390 guy, huh? This jerk and this jerk alone is who Button is referencing when he 2380 00:41:38,390 --> 00:41:38,400 is who Button is referencing when he 2381 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,510 is who Button is referencing when he says some researchers. In reality, 2382 00:41:41,510 --> 00:41:41,520 says some researchers. In reality, 2383 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,829 says some researchers. In reality, divers who have visited Jable Golbahar 2384 00:41:43,829 --> 00:41:43,839 divers who have visited Jable Golbahar 2385 00:41:43,839 --> 00:41:45,829 divers who have visited Jable Golbahar reported that the visible formations are 2386 00:41:45,829 --> 00:41:45,839 reported that the visible formations are 2387 00:41:45,839 --> 00:41:47,990 reported that the visible formations are consistent with modern boulders that 2388 00:41:47,990 --> 00:41:48,000 consistent with modern boulders that 2389 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,910 consistent with modern boulders that have been illegally dumped. Something 2390 00:41:49,910 --> 00:41:49,920 have been illegally dumped. Something 2391 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:51,589 have been illegally dumped. Something that is unfortunately common around 2392 00:41:51,589 --> 00:41:51,599 that is unfortunately common around 2393 00:41:51,599 --> 00:41:54,150 that is unfortunately common around Malta. Mystery solved. Something else 2394 00:41:54,150 --> 00:41:54,160 Malta. Mystery solved. Something else 2395 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:55,910 Malta. Mystery solved. Something else pointing to this earlier date is the 2396 00:41:55,910 --> 00:41:55,920 pointing to this earlier date is the 2397 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:57,829 pointing to this earlier date is the alignment of the temples. The temples 2398 00:41:57,829 --> 00:41:57,839 alignment of the temples. The temples 2399 00:41:57,839 --> 00:41:59,510 alignment of the temples. The temples all across the Maltese islands are 2400 00:41:59,510 --> 00:41:59,520 all across the Maltese islands are 2401 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,589 all across the Maltese islands are pointed in different seemingly random 2402 00:42:01,589 --> 00:42:01,599 pointed in different seemingly random 2403 00:42:01,599 --> 00:42:03,829 pointed in different seemingly random directions. This is odd for religious 2404 00:42:03,829 --> 00:42:03,839 directions. This is odd for religious 2405 00:42:03,839 --> 00:42:05,349 directions. This is odd for religious sites which typically align with 2406 00:42:05,349 --> 00:42:05,359 sites which typically align with 2407 00:42:05,359 --> 00:42:07,589 sites which typically align with consistent markers. However, researchers 2408 00:42:07,589 --> 00:42:07,599 consistent markers. However, researchers 2409 00:42:07,599 --> 00:42:09,750 consistent markers. However, researchers George Aas and Frank Ventura found that 2410 00:42:09,750 --> 00:42:09,760 George Aas and Frank Ventura found that 2411 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,150 George Aas and Frank Ventura found that their axes are not random, but exactly 2412 00:42:12,150 --> 00:42:12,160 their axes are not random, but exactly 2413 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:13,910 their axes are not random, but exactly correspond to the rising and setting 2414 00:42:13,910 --> 00:42:13,920 correspond to the rising and setting 2415 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,069 correspond to the rising and setting points of the star Sirius over thousands 2416 00:42:16,069 --> 00:42:16,079 points of the star Sirius over thousands 2417 00:42:16,079 --> 00:42:17,829 points of the star Sirius over thousands of years. Due to the procession of the 2418 00:42:17,829 --> 00:42:17,839 of years. Due to the procession of the 2419 00:42:17,839 --> 00:42:19,910 of years. Due to the procession of the equinoxes, a slow wobble of Earth's 2420 00:42:19,910 --> 00:42:19,920 equinoxes, a slow wobble of Earth's 2421 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,309 equinoxes, a slow wobble of Earth's axis, Sirius's position on the horizon 2422 00:42:22,309 --> 00:42:22,319 axis, Sirius's position on the horizon 2423 00:42:22,319 --> 00:42:24,230 axis, Sirius's position on the horizon shifts over millennia. This suggests 2424 00:42:24,230 --> 00:42:24,240 shifts over millennia. This suggests 2425 00:42:24,240 --> 00:42:26,230 shifts over millennia. This suggests that the temples were constructed over a 2426 00:42:26,230 --> 00:42:26,240 that the temples were constructed over a 2427 00:42:26,240 --> 00:42:28,470 that the temples were constructed over a span of nearly 5,000 [music] years from 2428 00:42:28,470 --> 00:42:28,480 span of nearly 5,000 [music] years from 2429 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,550 span of nearly 5,000 [music] years from around 9,150 2430 00:42:30,550 --> 00:42:30,560 around 9,150 2431 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,109 around 9,150 BC to 4,250 2432 00:42:33,109 --> 00:42:33,119 BC to 4,250 2433 00:42:33,119 --> 00:42:35,174 BC to 4,250 BC, each aligned to Sirius's position 2434 00:42:35,174 --> 00:42:35,184 BC, each aligned to Sirius's position 2435 00:42:35,184 --> 00:42:37,109 BC, each aligned to Sirius's position [music] at the time. Now, this could be 2436 00:42:37,109 --> 00:42:37,119 [music] at the time. Now, this could be 2437 00:42:37,119 --> 00:42:39,109 [music] at the time. Now, this could be a coincidence, but it would be a pretty 2438 00:42:39,109 --> 00:42:39,119 a coincidence, but it would be a pretty 2439 00:42:39,119 --> 00:42:40,950 a coincidence, but it would be a pretty remarkable one considering it matches 2440 00:42:40,950 --> 00:42:40,960 remarkable one considering it matches 2441 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,190 remarkable one considering it matches every single temple. We also know for a 2442 00:42:43,190 --> 00:42:43,200 every single temple. We also know for a 2443 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:44,790 every single temple. We also know for a fact that the temple builders used 2444 00:42:44,790 --> 00:42:44,800 fact that the temple builders used 2445 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,710 fact that the temple builders used astronomy in their construction. The 2446 00:42:46,710 --> 00:42:46,720 astronomy in their construction. The 2447 00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:48,630 astronomy in their construction. The problem is that this alignment puts the 2448 00:42:48,630 --> 00:42:48,640 problem is that this alignment puts the 2449 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,710 problem is that this alignment puts the beginning of the temple phase at 11,000 2450 00:42:50,710 --> 00:42:50,720 beginning of the temple phase at 11,000 2451 00:42:50,720 --> 00:42:52,870 beginning of the temple phase at 11,000 years ago, way earlier than is accepted. 2452 00:42:52,870 --> 00:42:52,880 years ago, way earlier than is accepted. 2453 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,390 years ago, way earlier than is accepted. And at the time the sea levels were 2454 00:42:54,390 --> 00:42:54,400 And at the time the sea levels were 2455 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,870 And at the time the sea levels were lower. Now this date of 11,000 years ago 2456 00:42:56,870 --> 00:42:56,880 lower. Now this date of 11,000 years ago 2457 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,030 lower. Now this date of 11,000 years ago is I'm sure very interesting to many of 2458 00:42:59,030 --> 00:42:59,040 is I'm sure very interesting to many of 2459 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:00,710 is I'm sure very interesting to many of you as it aligns perfectly with 2460 00:43:00,710 --> 00:43:00,720 you as it aligns perfectly with 2461 00:43:00,720 --> 00:43:02,950 you as it aligns perfectly with Geekbecepe, the younger dus, Plato's 2462 00:43:02,950 --> 00:43:02,960 Geekbecepe, the younger dus, Plato's 2463 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:04,870 Geekbecepe, the younger dus, Plato's description of Atlantis and many other 2464 00:43:04,870 --> 00:43:04,880 description of Atlantis and many other 2465 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,870 description of Atlantis and many other aspects of the increasingly popular 2466 00:43:06,870 --> 00:43:06,880 aspects of the increasingly popular 2467 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,870 aspects of the increasingly popular theory for a lost civilization of the 2468 00:43:08,870 --> 00:43:08,880 theory for a lost civilization of the 2469 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:10,470 theory for a lost civilization of the ice age. Now what I've said in this 2470 00:43:10,470 --> 00:43:10,480 ice age. Now what I've said in this 2471 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,550 ice age. Now what I've said in this video is by no means proof of this, but 2472 00:43:12,550 --> 00:43:12,560 video is by no means proof of this, but 2473 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,870 video is by no means proof of this, but I do think that the accepted timeline of 2474 00:43:14,870 --> 00:43:14,880 I do think that the accepted timeline of 2475 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:16,950 I do think that the accepted timeline of Malta's ancient history doesn't make 2476 00:43:16,950 --> 00:43:16,960 Malta's ancient history doesn't make 2477 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:18,790 Malta's ancient history doesn't make sense. But what do you think? Please let 2478 00:43:18,790 --> 00:43:18,800 sense. But what do you think? Please let 2479 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,150 sense. But what do you think?

Agius and Ventura published their archoastronomical analysis of the 2502 00:43:43,910 --> 00:43:43,920 archoastronomical analysis of the 2503 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,390 archoastronomical analysis of the Maltese temples in 1980. Their finding 2504 00:43:46,390 --> 00:43:46,400 Maltese temples in 1980. Their finding 2505 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:48,390 Maltese temples in 1980. Their finding was that the orientations of the Maltese 2506 00:43:48,390 --> 00:43:48,400 was that the orientations of the Maltese 2507 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,790 was that the orientations of the Maltese temples are statistically non-random, 2508 00:43:50,790 --> 00:43:50,800 temples are statistically non-random, 2509 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:52,550 temples are statistically non-random, meaning that the azimothal directions in 2510 00:43:52,550 --> 00:43:52,560 meaning that the azimothal directions in 2511 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:54,390 meaning that the azimothal directions in which the temples are aligned are not 2512 00:43:54,390 --> 00:43:54,400 which the temples are aligned are not 2513 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,870 which the temples are aligned are not distributed uniformly or randomly and 2514 00:43:56,870 --> 00:43:56,880 distributed uniformly or randomly and 2515 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,470 distributed uniformly or randomly and therefore reflect intentional 2516 00:43:58,470 --> 00:43:58,480 therefore reflect intentional 2517 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:00,710 therefore reflect intentional directional referencing of some kind in 2518 00:44:00,710 --> 00:44:00,720 directional referencing of some kind in 2519 00:44:00,720 --> 00:44:02,550 directional referencing of some kind in identifying possible astronomical 2520 00:44:02,550 --> 00:44:02,560 identifying possible astronomical 2521 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,710 identifying possible astronomical targets for the non-random orientations. 2522 00:44:04,710 --> 00:44:04,720 targets for the non-random orientations. 2523 00:44:04,720 --> 00:44:06,950 targets for the non-random orientations. They assessed multiple stellar and solar 2524 00:44:06,950 --> 00:44:06,960 They assessed multiple stellar and solar 2525 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,030 They assessed multiple stellar and solar candidates and explicitly left the 2526 00:44:09,030 --> 00:44:09,040 candidates and explicitly left the 2527 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:11,109 candidates and explicitly left the question of which specific targets were 2528 00:44:11,109 --> 00:44:11,119 question of which specific targets were 2529 00:44:11,119 --> 00:44:13,510 question of which specific targets were intended open for further research. They 2530 00:44:13,510 --> 00:44:13,520 intended open for further research. They 2531 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,630 intended open for further research. They did not propose 9150 B.CE or any date 2532 00:44:16,630 --> 00:44:16,640 did not propose 9150 B.CE or any date 2533 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,630 did not propose 9150 B.CE or any date outside the established temple period. 2534 00:44:18,630 --> 00:44:18,640 outside the established temple period. 2535 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:20,550 outside the established temple period. They worked entirely within the accepted 2536 00:44:20,550 --> 00:44:20,560 They worked entirely within the accepted 2537 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,870 They worked entirely within the accepted archaeological chronology. So where is 2538 00:44:22,870 --> 00:44:22,880 archaeological chronology. So where is 2539 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:24,630 archaeological chronology. So where is Button getting this [\h__\h] from? The 2540 00:44:24,630 --> 00:44:24,640 Button getting this [\h__\h] from? The 2541 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,470 Button getting this [\h__\h] from? The serious interpretation and the date 2542 00:44:26,470 --> 00:44:26,480 serious interpretation and the date 2543 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,990 serious interpretation and the date range of 9150 to 4250 B.CE come from a 2544 00:44:29,990 --> 00:44:30,000 range of 9150 to 4250 B.CE come from a 2545 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,390 range of 9150 to 4250 B.CE come from a blog post on Graham Cox's website 2546 00:44:32,390 --> 00:44:32,400 blog post on Graham Cox's website 2547 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,550 blog post on Graham Cox's website written by Laney Raid. She has no 2548 00:44:34,550 --> 00:44:34,560 written by Laney Raid. She has no 2549 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,309 written by Laney Raid. She has no qualifications in archaeology or 2550 00:44:36,309 --> 00:44:36,319 qualifications in archaeology or 2551 00:44:36,319 --> 00:44:37,910 qualifications in archaeology or astronomy, so certainly not 2552 00:44:37,910 --> 00:44:37,920 astronomy, so certainly not 2553 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,390 astronomy, so certainly not archoastronomy. and she states outright 2554 00:44:40,390 --> 00:44:40,400 archoastronomy. and she states outright 2555 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:41,910 archoastronomy. and she states outright that she set aside standard 2556 00:44:41,910 --> 00:44:41,920 that she set aside standard 2557 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:43,750 that she set aside standard archaeological dating in order to 2558 00:44:43,750 --> 00:44:43,760 archaeological dating in order to 2559 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,829 archaeological dating in order to develop the serious alignment theory. 2560 00:44:45,829 --> 00:44:45,839 develop the serious alignment theory. 2561 00:44:45,839 --> 00:44:47,829 develop the serious alignment theory. She also explicitly relies on the work 2562 00:44:47,829 --> 00:44:47,839 She also explicitly relies on the work 2563 00:44:47,839 --> 00:44:50,870 She also explicitly relies on the work of Luigi Maria Ugalini, a fascist regime 2564 00:44:50,870 --> 00:44:50,880 of Luigi Maria Ugalini, a fascist regime 2565 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:52,710 of Luigi Maria Ugalini, a fascist regime operative who was sent to Malta by 2566 00:44:52,710 --> 00:44:52,720 operative who was sent to Malta by 2567 00:44:52,720 --> 00:44:55,990 operative who was sent to Malta by Mussolini to enforce Mediterraneanism, a 2568 00:44:55,990 --> 00:44:56,000 Mussolini to enforce Mediterraneanism, a 2569 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,870 Mussolini to enforce Mediterraneanism, a racist pseudocience invented to justify 2570 00:44:58,870 --> 00:44:58,880 racist pseudocience invented to justify 2571 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,270 racist pseudocience invented to justify Italian colonial supremacy. Raid 2572 00:45:01,270 --> 00:45:01,280 Italian colonial supremacy. Raid 2573 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,910 Italian colonial supremacy. Raid knowingly embraces this fascist fraud as 2574 00:45:03,910 --> 00:45:03,920 knowingly embraces this fascist fraud as 2575 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:05,510 knowingly embraces this fascist fraud as the basis for rejecting standard 2576 00:45:05,510 --> 00:45:05,520 the basis for rejecting standard 2577 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,589 the basis for rejecting standard archaeology. She took the statistical 2578 00:45:07,589 --> 00:45:07,599 archaeology. She took the statistical 2579 00:45:07,599 --> 00:45:09,670 archaeology. She took the statistical finding from Aegis and Ventura that the 2580 00:45:09,670 --> 00:45:09,680 finding from Aegis and Ventura that the 2581 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,069 finding from Aegis and Ventura that the orientations are non-random, discarded 2582 00:45:12,069 --> 00:45:12,079 orientations are non-random, discarded 2583 00:45:12,079 --> 00:45:14,150 orientations are non-random, discarded their multi-target analysis, rejected 2584 00:45:14,150 --> 00:45:14,160 their multi-target analysis, rejected 2585 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:15,589 their multi-target analysis, rejected the established archaeological 2586 00:45:15,589 --> 00:45:15,599 the established archaeological 2587 00:45:15,599 --> 00:45:17,589 the established archaeological chronology of the temples, and replaced 2588 00:45:17,589 --> 00:45:17,599 chronology of the temples, and replaced 2589 00:45:17,599 --> 00:45:19,430 chronology of the temples, and replaced all of it with her own conclusion that 2590 00:45:19,430 --> 00:45:19,440 all of it with her own conclusion that 2591 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,270 all of it with her own conclusion that the temples must align with the rising 2592 00:45:21,270 --> 00:45:21,280 the temples must align with the rising 2593 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,349 the temples must align with the rising and setting of Sirius across a span 2594 00:45:23,349 --> 00:45:23,359 and setting of Sirius across a span 2595 00:45:23,359 --> 00:45:26,069 and setting of Sirius across a span extending back to 9150 B.CE. because she 2596 00:45:26,069 --> 00:45:26,079 extending back to 9150 B.CE. because she 2597 00:45:26,079 --> 00:45:28,790 extending back to 9150 B.CE. because she says so. Button takes Raidik's words and 2598 00:45:28,790 --> 00:45:28,800 says so. Button takes Raidik's words and 2599 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,190 says so. Button takes Raidik's words and puts them in AGS and Ventura's mouths. 2600 00:45:31,190 --> 00:45:31,200 puts them in AGS and Ventura's mouths. 2601 00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:33,109 puts them in AGS and Ventura's mouths. Respected academic researchers at the 2602 00:45:33,109 --> 00:45:33,119 Respected academic researchers at the 2603 00:45:33,119 --> 00:45:35,270 Respected academic researchers at the University of Malta who did not reach 2604 00:45:35,270 --> 00:45:35,280 University of Malta who did not reach 2605 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,510 University of Malta who did not reach this conclusion and whose published work 2606 00:45:37,510 --> 00:45:37,520 this conclusion and whose published work 2607 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,309 this conclusion and whose published work is incompatible with it because he's a 2608 00:45:40,309 --> 00:45:40,319 is incompatible with it because he's a 2609 00:45:40,319 --> 00:45:42,470 is incompatible with it because he's a fraud. And we know for a fact he's doing 2610 00:45:42,470 --> 00:45:42,480 fraud. And we know for a fact he's doing 2611 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,630 fraud. And we know for a fact he's doing this because he uses many of her assets 2612 00:45:44,630 --> 00:45:44,640 this because he uses many of her assets 2613 00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:47,589 this because he uses many of her assets in his video. Well, that was a [\h__\h] 2614 00:45:47,589 --> 00:45:47,599 in his video. Well, that was a [\h__\h] 2615 00:45:47,599 --> 00:45:49,510 in his video. Well, that was a [\h__\h] train wreck, wasn't it? This was the 2616 00:45:49,510 --> 00:45:49,520 train wreck, wasn't it? This was the 2617 00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:51,510 train wreck, wasn't it? This was the perfect video for illustrating Button's 2618 00:45:51,510 --> 00:45:51,520 perfect video for illustrating Button's 2619 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:53,589 perfect video for illustrating Button's grifter techniques, his extent of 2620 00:45:53,589 --> 00:45:53,599 grifter techniques, his extent of 2621 00:45:53,599 --> 00:45:55,670 grifter techniques, his extent of research, and how he is just another 2622 00:45:55,670 --> 00:45:55,680 research, and how he is just another 2623 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,069 research, and how he is just another lying scumbag pushing fabricated 2624 00:45:58,069 --> 00:45:58,079 lying scumbag pushing fabricated 2625 00:45:58,079 --> 00:46:00,069 lying scumbag pushing fabricated mysteries for fame and cash.

Archaeology is suppressing the truth. 2636 00:46:10,309 --> 00:46:10,319 Archaeology is suppressing the truth. 2637 00:46:10,319 --> 00:46:12,390 Archaeology is suppressing the truth. Archaeologists are scared of Graham 2638 00:46:12,390 --> 00:46:12,400 Archaeologists are scared of Graham 2639 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,630 Archaeologists are scared of Graham Hancock. We should all work together. 2640 00:46:14,630 --> 00:46:14,640 Hancock. We should all work together. 2641 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:16,309 Hancock. We should all work together. You all know the drill by now. Let's 2642 00:46:16,309 --> 00:46:16,319 You all know the drill by now. Let's 2643 00:46:16,319 --> 00:46:17,990 You all know the drill by now. Let's check it out.

Ganung Padang is a megalithic site in Indonesia 2662 00:46:35,349 --> 00:46:35,359 Padang is a megalithic site in Indonesia 2663 00:46:35,359 --> 00:46:37,109 Padang is a megalithic site in Indonesia that has sparked intense [music] debate 2664 00:46:37,109 --> 00:46:37,119 that has sparked intense [music] debate 2665 00:46:37,119 --> 00:46:39,270 that has sparked intense [music] debate over its origins and significance. Built 2666 00:46:39,270 --> 00:46:39,280 over its origins and significance. Built 2667 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,510 over its origins and significance. Built at top an extinct volcano, it contains 2668 00:46:41,510 --> 00:46:41,520 at top an extinct volcano, it contains 2669 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,109 at top an extinct volcano, it contains massive stone blocks and layered 2670 00:46:43,109 --> 00:46:43,119 massive stone blocks and layered 2671 00:46:43,119 --> 00:46:45,030 massive stone blocks and layered terraces. Initially believed to date 2672 00:46:45,030 --> 00:46:45,040 terraces. Initially believed to date 2673 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,550 terraces. Initially believed to date back around 2,500 years. However, a new 2674 00:46:48,550 --> 00:46:48,560 back around 2,500 years. However, a new 2675 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:50,950 back around 2,500 years. However, a new study using radiocarbon dating suggests 2676 00:46:50,950 --> 00:46:50,960 study using radiocarbon dating suggests 2677 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,030 study using radiocarbon dating suggests that buried layers beneath the surface 2678 00:46:53,030 --> 00:46:53,040 that buried layers beneath the surface 2679 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,990 that buried layers beneath the surface could be as old as 24,000 [music] years. 2680 00:46:55,990 --> 00:46:56,000 could be as old as 24,000 [music] years. 2681 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:57,910 could be as old as 24,000 [music] years. Built in a pyramid-like structure, 2682 00:46:57,910 --> 00:46:57,920 Built in a pyramid-like structure, 2683 00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,670 Built in a pyramid-like structure, considering the conventional timeline 2684 00:46:59,670 --> 00:46:59,680 considering the conventional timeline 2685 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,510 considering the conventional timeline puts the start of civilization at 2686 00:47:01,510 --> 00:47:01,520 puts the start of civilization at 2687 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:04,230 puts the start of civilization at roughly 5,000 years ago. This completely 2688 00:47:04,230 --> 00:47:04,240 roughly 5,000 years ago. This completely 2689 00:47:04,240 --> 00:47:07,030 roughly 5,000 years ago. This completely upends mainstream archaey's idea of the 2690 00:47:07,030 --> 00:47:07,040 upends mainstream archaey's idea of the 2691 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,190 upends mainstream archaey's idea of the past. Now, skeptics dismiss these 2692 00:47:09,190 --> 00:47:09,200 past. Now, skeptics dismiss these 2693 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:10,870 past. Now, skeptics dismiss these claims, meaning the site has become 2694 00:47:10,870 --> 00:47:10,880 claims, meaning the site has become 2695 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,349 claims, meaning the site has become something of a battleground. Between 2696 00:47:13,349 --> 00:47:13,359 something of a battleground. Between 2697 00:47:13,359 --> 00:47:15,270 something of a battleground. Between conventional science and alternative 2698 00:47:15,270 --> 00:47:15,280 conventional science and alternative 2699 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,230 conventional science and alternative history, WA, sick laser sounds, bro. 2700 00:47:18,230 --> 00:47:18,240 history, WA, sick laser sounds, bro. 2701 00:47:18,240 --> 00:47:19,990 history, WA, sick laser sounds, bro. Yeah, there's no battleground between 2702 00:47:19,990 --> 00:47:20,000 Yeah, there's no battleground between 2703 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:21,670 Yeah, there's no battleground between conventional science and alternative 2704 00:47:21,670 --> 00:47:21,680 conventional science and alternative 2705 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,750 conventional science and alternative history. There's scientists doing 2706 00:47:23,750 --> 00:47:23,760 history. There's scientists doing 2707 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,150 history. There's scientists doing science and then a bunch of idiot frauds 2708 00:47:26,150 --> 00:47:26,160 science and then a bunch of idiot frauds 2709 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:28,230 science and then a bunch of idiot frauds spewing lies on the internet hoping to 2710 00:47:28,230 --> 00:47:28,240 spewing lies on the internet hoping to 2711 00:47:28,240 --> 00:47:29,910 spewing lies on the internet hoping to fly under the radar for long enough to 2712 00:47:29,910 --> 00:47:29,920 fly under the radar for long enough to 2713 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:32,150 fly under the radar for long enough to make some grifter cash. What Buttnut 2714 00:47:32,150 --> 00:47:32,160 make some grifter cash. What Buttnut 2715 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:34,230 make some grifter cash. What Buttnut conveniently left out is that Natawa 2716 00:47:34,230 --> 00:47:34,240 conveniently left out is that Natawa 2717 00:47:34,240 --> 00:47:36,309 conveniently left out is that Natawa Jaya spent years before this paper was 2718 00:47:36,309 --> 00:47:36,319 Jaya spent years before this paper was 2719 00:47:36,319 --> 00:47:38,309 Jaya spent years before this paper was published publicly committed to proving 2720 00:47:38,309 --> 00:47:38,319 published publicly committed to proving 2721 00:47:38,319 --> 00:47:40,069 published publicly committed to proving that Gunnong Padang was a massive 2722 00:47:40,069 --> 00:47:40,079 that Gunnong Padang was a massive 2723 00:47:40,079 --> 00:47:41,750 that Gunnong Padang was a massive pyramid that was somehow linked to 2724 00:47:41,750 --> 00:47:41,760 pyramid that was somehow linked to 2725 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,990 pyramid that was somehow linked to Atlantis. And he even wrote a book on it 2726 00:47:43,990 --> 00:47:44,000 Atlantis. And he even wrote a book on it 2727 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:47,109 Atlantis. And he even wrote a book on it called Plato never lied. Atlantis is in 2728 00:47:47,109 --> 00:47:47,119 called Plato never lied. Atlantis is in 2729 00:47:47,119 --> 00:47:50,069 called Plato never lied. Atlantis is in Indonesia. Yeah. The conclusion was set 2730 00:47:50,069 --> 00:47:50,079 Indonesia. Yeah. The conclusion was set 2731 00:47:50,079 --> 00:47:52,230 Indonesia. Yeah. The conclusion was set 10 years before the so-called research 2732 00:47:52,230 --> 00:47:52,240 10 years before the so-called research 2733 00:47:52,240 --> 00:47:54,309 10 years before the so-called research was published. The paper was just his 2734 00:47:54,309 --> 00:47:54,319 was published. The paper was just his 2735 00:47:54,319 --> 00:47:56,309 was published. The paper was just his latest attempt to make the evidence fit 2736 00:47:56,309 --> 00:47:56,319 latest attempt to make the evidence fit 2737 00:47:56,319 --> 00:47:58,150 latest attempt to make the evidence fit the desired conclusion. Yet another 2738 00:47:58,150 --> 00:47:58,160 the desired conclusion. Yet another 2739 00:47:58,160 --> 00:47:59,829 the desired conclusion. Yet another crank. Now, this wasn't just a random 2740 00:47:59,829 --> 00:47:59,839 crank. Now, this wasn't just a random 2741 00:47:59,839 --> 00:48:01,670 crank. Now, this wasn't just a random group of crazy nutters. It wasn't some 2742 00:48:01,670 --> 00:48:01,680 group of crazy nutters. It wasn't some 2743 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:03,349 group of crazy nutters. It wasn't some weirdo like me going there and claiming 2744 00:48:03,349 --> 00:48:03,359 weirdo like me going there and claiming 2745 00:48:03,359 --> 00:48:05,349 weirdo like me going there and claiming it was some ancient pyramid. No, this 2746 00:48:05,349 --> 00:48:05,359 it was some ancient pyramid. No, this 2747 00:48:05,359 --> 00:48:06,790 it was some ancient pyramid. No, this was a team of seasoned and 2748 00:48:06,790 --> 00:48:06,800 was a team of seasoned and 2749 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,190 was a team of seasoned and well-credential geologists, geoysicists, 2750 00:48:09,190 --> 00:48:09,200 well-credential geologists, geoysicists, 2751 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,069 well-credential geologists, geoysicists, and engineers.

His team included experts 2764 00:48:26,230 --> 00:48:26,240 type of data. His team included experts 2765 00:48:26,240 --> 00:48:28,470 type of data. His team included experts in geohysical surveying and radiocarbon 2766 00:48:28,470 --> 00:48:28,480 in geohysical surveying and radiocarbon 2767 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:29,670 in geohysical surveying and radiocarbon dating and [music] the paper is 2768 00:48:29,670 --> 00:48:29,680 dating and [music] the paper is 2769 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:31,589 dating and [music] the paper is meticulously put together with lots of 2770 00:48:31,589 --> 00:48:31,599 meticulously put together with lots of 2771 00:48:31,599 --> 00:48:33,430 meticulously put together with lots of really interesting evidence. However, 2772 00:48:33,430 --> 00:48:33,440 really interesting evidence. However, 2773 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:35,510 really interesting evidence. However, the controversy began when the journal 2774 00:48:35,510 --> 00:48:35,520 the controversy began when the journal 2775 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:37,829 the controversy began when the journal Archaeological Prospection retracted the 2776 00:48:37,829 --> 00:48:37,839 Archaeological Prospection retracted the 2777 00:48:37,839 --> 00:48:40,470 Archaeological Prospection retracted the paper in early 2024, citing issues with 2778 00:48:40,470 --> 00:48:40,480 paper in early 2024, citing issues with 2779 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:42,069 paper in early 2024, citing issues with its scientific rigor. Now, this 2780 00:48:42,069 --> 00:48:42,079 its scientific rigor. Now, this 2781 00:48:42,079 --> 00:48:43,829 its scientific rigor. Now, this retraction fueled a heated debate 2782 00:48:43,829 --> 00:48:43,839 retraction fueled a heated debate 2783 00:48:43,839 --> 00:48:45,670 retraction fueled a heated debate between mainstream archaeologists who 2784 00:48:45,670 --> 00:48:45,680 between mainstream archaeologists who 2785 00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:47,510 between mainstream archaeologists who saw it as a victory for academic 2786 00:48:47,510 --> 00:48:47,520 saw it as a victory for academic 2787 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:49,510 saw it as a victory for academic integrity and alternative history 2788 00:48:49,510 --> 00:48:49,520 integrity and alternative history 2789 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:50,870 integrity and alternative history proponents who decrieded it as 2790 00:48:50,870 --> 00:48:50,880 proponents who decrieded it as 2791 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,030 proponents who decrieded it as censorship and suppression. So, what's 2792 00:48:53,030 --> 00:48:53,040 censorship and suppression. So, what's 2793 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,510 censorship and suppression. So, what's going on here? What's going on here is 2794 00:48:55,510 --> 00:48:55,520 going on here? What's going on here is 2795 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:57,430 going on here? What's going on here is that sometimes credentialed scientists 2796 00:48:57,430 --> 00:48:57,440 that sometimes credentialed scientists 2797 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,309 that sometimes credentialed scientists are also frauds. James Tour, Avi Loe, 2798 00:49:00,309 --> 00:49:00,319 are also frauds. James Tour, Avi Loe, 2799 00:49:00,319 --> 00:49:01,990 are also frauds. James Tour, Avi Loe, they're fewer in number than the random 2800 00:49:01,990 --> 00:49:02,000 they're fewer in number than the random 2801 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:03,910 they're fewer in number than the random crazy nutters. And it's refreshing to 2802 00:49:03,910 --> 00:49:03,920 crazy nutters. And it's refreshing to 2803 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,230 crazy nutters. And it's refreshing to hear Mikey admit that he's in that camp. 2804 00:49:06,230 --> 00:49:06,240 hear Mikey admit that he's in that camp. 2805 00:49:06,240 --> 00:49:08,950 hear Mikey admit that he's in that camp. But scholars can also grift. His paper 2806 00:49:08,950 --> 00:49:08,960 But scholars can also grift. His paper 2807 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,190 But scholars can also grift. His paper was retracted because it's dog [\h__\h] He 2808 00:49:11,190 --> 00:49:11,200 was retracted because it's dog [\h__\h] He 2809 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:13,270 was retracted because it's dog [\h__\h] He and his team drilled a core about 40 ft 2810 00:49:13,270 --> 00:49:13,280 and his team drilled a core about 40 ft 2811 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,430 and his team drilled a core about 40 ft into the ground, radiocarbon dated the 2812 00:49:15,430 --> 00:49:15,440 into the ground, radiocarbon dated the 2813 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,190 into the ground, radiocarbon dated the soil they retrieved, got a date of 2814 00:49:17,190 --> 00:49:17,200 soil they retrieved, got a date of 2815 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,589 soil they retrieved, got a date of around 25,000 years ago, and claimed 2816 00:49:19,589 --> 00:49:19,599 around 25,000 years ago, and claimed 2817 00:49:19,599 --> 00:49:21,670 around 25,000 years ago, and claimed that was when the structure was built. 2818 00:49:21,670 --> 00:49:21,680 that was when the structure was built. 2819 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,430 that was when the structure was built. Radiocarbon dating tells you when 2820 00:49:23,430 --> 00:49:23,440 Radiocarbon dating tells you when 2821 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,150 Radiocarbon dating tells you when organic material died. If you date loose 2822 00:49:26,150 --> 00:49:26,160 organic material died. If you date loose 2823 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,230 organic material died. If you date loose soil, you are dating when plants 2824 00:49:28,230 --> 00:49:28,240 soil, you are dating when plants 2825 00:49:28,240 --> 00:49:30,549 soil, you are dating when plants decomposed, not when something was built 2826 00:49:30,549 --> 00:49:30,559 decomposed, not when something was built 2827 00:49:30,559 --> 00:49:32,710 decomposed, not when something was built above it. To date a construction event, 2828 00:49:32,710 --> 00:49:32,720 above it. To date a construction event, 2829 00:49:32,720 --> 00:49:34,390 above it. To date a construction event, you need organic material that was 2830 00:49:34,390 --> 00:49:34,400 you need organic material that was 2831 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:36,230 you need organic material that was deposited as part of the construction 2832 00:49:36,230 --> 00:49:36,240 deposited as part of the construction 2833 00:49:36,240 --> 00:49:39,030 deposited as part of the construction itself, such as charcoal from fires, 2834 00:49:39,030 --> 00:49:39,040 itself, such as charcoal from fires, 2835 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,030 itself, such as charcoal from fires, bone, or plant matter sealed within the 2836 00:49:41,030 --> 00:49:41,040 bone, or plant matter sealed within the 2837 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,349 bone, or plant matter sealed within the structure. There was none. So, the paper 2838 00:49:43,349 --> 00:49:43,359 structure. There was none. So, the paper 2839 00:49:43,359 --> 00:49:46,150 structure. There was none. So, the paper is [\h__\h] This is not just some kind of 2840 00:49:46,150 --> 00:49:46,160 is [\h__\h] This is not just some kind of 2841 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,710 is [\h__\h] This is not just some kind of disagreement over interpretation. It's a 2842 00:49:48,710 --> 00:49:48,720 disagreement over interpretation. It's a 2843 00:49:48,720 --> 00:49:51,349 disagreement over interpretation. It's a [\h__\h] paper that used [\h__\h] methodology to 2844 00:49:51,349 --> 00:49:51,359 [\h__\h] paper that used [\h__\h] methodology to 2845 00:49:51,359 --> 00:49:53,030 [\h__\h] paper that used [\h__\h] methodology to support a predetermined baseless 2846 00:49:53,030 --> 00:49:53,040 support a predetermined baseless 2847 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,349 support a predetermined baseless conclusion. The dated material was not 2848 00:49:55,349 --> 00:49:55,359 conclusion. The dated material was not 2849 00:49:55,359 --> 00:49:57,349 conclusion. The dated material was not linked to any human construction. So, 2850 00:49:57,349 --> 00:49:57,359 linked to any human construction. So, 2851 00:49:57,359 --> 00:49:59,430 linked to any human construction. So, the conclusion does not follow, and the 2852 00:49:59,430 --> 00:49:59,440 the conclusion does not follow, and the 2853 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:01,510 the conclusion does not follow, and the paper was therefore retracted precisely 2854 00:50:01,510 --> 00:50:01,520 paper was therefore retracted precisely 2855 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:03,030 paper was therefore retracted precisely as it should have been. However, 2856 00:50:03,030 --> 00:50:03,040 as it should have been. However, 2857 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:04,790 as it should have been. However, mainstream archaeologists argue that 2858 00:50:04,790 --> 00:50:04,800 mainstream archaeologists argue that 2859 00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:06,630 mainstream archaeologists argue that it's basically all natural, which it 2860 00:50:06,630 --> 00:50:06,640 it's basically all natural, which it 2861 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,549 it's basically all natural, which it could be. This is an extinct volcano 2862 00:50:08,549 --> 00:50:08,559 could be. This is an extinct volcano 2863 00:50:08,559 --> 00:50:10,470 could be. This is an extinct volcano after all, and lava tubes and weirdly 2864 00:50:10,470 --> 00:50:10,480 after all, and lava tubes and weirdly 2865 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:12,230 after all, and lava tubes and weirdly shaped stones are certainly something we 2866 00:50:12,230 --> 00:50:12,240 shaped stones are certainly something we 2867 00:50:12,240 --> 00:50:14,710 shaped stones are certainly something we find in nature. But without excavation, 2868 00:50:14,710 --> 00:50:14,720 find in nature. But without excavation, 2869 00:50:14,720 --> 00:50:17,190 find in nature. But without excavation, no one can say for sure. And strangely, 2870 00:50:17,190 --> 00:50:17,200 no one can say for sure. And strangely, 2871 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:18,950 no one can say for sure. And strangely, despite the site's significance, a 2872 00:50:18,950 --> 00:50:18,960 despite the site's significance, a 2873 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,190 despite the site's significance, a full-scale archaeological excavation has 2874 00:50:21,190 --> 00:50:21,200 full-scale archaeological excavation has 2875 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:23,990 full-scale archaeological excavation has never been conducted. Nope. Full-scale 2876 00:50:23,990 --> 00:50:24,000 never been conducted. Nope. Full-scale 2877 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:25,990 never been conducted. Nope. Full-scale archaeological excavation has been 2878 00:50:25,990 --> 00:50:26,000 archaeological excavation has been 2879 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,309 archaeological excavation has been conducted at Gunnong Padang. Mikey is 2880 00:50:28,309 --> 00:50:28,319 conducted at Gunnong Padang. Mikey is 2881 00:50:28,319 --> 00:50:31,030 conducted at Gunnong Padang. Mikey is just flatout lying again. Dr. Luti 2882 00:50:31,030 --> 00:50:31,040 just flatout lying again. Dr. Luti 2883 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,109 just flatout lying again. Dr. Luti Yandre, an Indonesian archaeologist, 2884 00:50:33,109 --> 00:50:33,119 Yandre, an Indonesian archaeologist, 2885 00:50:33,119 --> 00:50:34,710 Yandre, an Indonesian archaeologist, excavated the site with trenches 2886 00:50:34,710 --> 00:50:34,720 excavated the site with trenches 2887 00:50:34,720 --> 00:50:36,390 excavated the site with trenches directly alongside the terrace and 2888 00:50:36,390 --> 00:50:36,400 directly alongside the terrace and 2889 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,230 directly alongside the terrace and architecture, recovered pottery, 2890 00:50:38,230 --> 00:50:38,240 architecture, recovered pottery, 2891 00:50:38,240 --> 00:50:40,150 architecture, recovered pottery, groundstone, and charcoal from areas 2892 00:50:40,150 --> 00:50:40,160 groundstone, and charcoal from areas 2893 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:41,829 groundstone, and charcoal from areas immediately adjacent to and under the 2894 00:50:41,829 --> 00:50:41,839 immediately adjacent to and under the 2895 00:50:41,839 --> 00:50:43,589 immediately adjacent to and under the walls, and published a book on his 2896 00:50:43,589 --> 00:50:43,599 walls, and published a book on his 2897 00:50:43,599 --> 00:50:46,069 walls, and published a book on his findings. That is the proper methodology 2898 00:50:46,069 --> 00:50:46,079 findings. That is the proper methodology 2899 00:50:46,079 --> 00:50:47,750 findings. That is the proper methodology that should have been utilized with the 2900 00:50:47,750 --> 00:50:47,760 that should have been utilized with the 2901 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:49,589 that should have been utilized with the retracted paper which is full of 2902 00:50:49,589 --> 00:50:49,599 retracted paper which is full of 2903 00:50:49,599 --> 00:50:52,069 retracted paper which is full of baseless claims. Yandre's work produced 2904 00:50:52,069 --> 00:50:52,079 baseless claims. Yandre's work produced 2905 00:50:52,079 --> 00:50:53,990 baseless claims. Yandre's work produced a documented construction date that 2906 00:50:53,990 --> 00:50:54,000 a documented construction date that 2907 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:55,670 a documented construction date that cannot be pushed any older and 2908 00:50:55,670 --> 00:50:55,680 cannot be pushed any older and 2909 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:58,069 cannot be pushed any older and completely rules out a 25,000year-old 2910 00:50:58,069 --> 00:50:58,079 completely rules out a 25,000year-old 2911 00:50:58,079 --> 00:51:00,630 completely rules out a 25,000year-old pyramid. Natawagia's paper did not cite 2912 00:51:00,630 --> 00:51:00,640 pyramid. Natawagia's paper did not cite 2913 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,670 pyramid. Natawagia's paper did not cite Yandre once. Yandre's work destroys the 2914 00:51:03,670 --> 00:51:03,680 Yandre once. Yandre's work destroys the 2915 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:05,510 Yandre once. Yandre's work destroys the narrative that these grifting losers are 2916 00:51:05,510 --> 00:51:05,520 narrative that these grifting losers are 2917 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:07,670 narrative that these grifting losers are trying to push. So they just pretend he 2918 00:51:07,670 --> 00:51:07,680 trying to push. So they just pretend he 2919 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,750 trying to push. So they just pretend he doesn't exist, which works wonderfully 2920 00:51:09,750 --> 00:51:09,760 doesn't exist, which works wonderfully 2921 00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,910 doesn't exist, which works wonderfully on suggestible people because people who 2922 00:51:11,910 --> 00:51:11,920 on suggestible people because people who 2923 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:13,750 on suggestible people because people who want to believe these stories won't lift 2924 00:51:13,750 --> 00:51:13,760 want to believe these stories won't lift 2925 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:15,510 want to believe these stories won't lift a finger to fact check anything. The 2926 00:51:15,510 --> 00:51:15,520 a finger to fact check anything. The 2927 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:17,109 a finger to fact check anything. The absence of such an effort has only 2928 00:51:17,109 --> 00:51:17,119 absence of such an effort has only 2929 00:51:17,119 --> 00:51:19,190 absence of such an effort has only fueled speculation. If this site were 2930 00:51:19,190 --> 00:51:19,200 fueled speculation. If this site were 2931 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,670 fueled speculation. If this site were properly explored, it might confirm an 2932 00:51:21,670 --> 00:51:21,680 properly explored, it might confirm an 2933 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:23,910 properly explored, it might confirm an advanced prehistoric civilization. Thus, 2934 00:51:23,910 --> 00:51:23,920 advanced prehistoric civilization. Thus, 2935 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:25,589 advanced prehistoric civilization. Thus, many suggest archaeology could be 2936 00:51:25,589 --> 00:51:25,599 many suggest archaeology could be 2937 00:51:25,599 --> 00:51:27,190 many suggest archaeology could be blocking this to maintain the 2938 00:51:27,190 --> 00:51:27,200 blocking this to maintain the 2939 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,430 blocking this to maintain the traditional timeline. This [\h__\h] 2940 00:51:29,430 --> 00:51:29,440 traditional timeline. This [\h__\h] 2941 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:31,430 traditional timeline. This [\h__\h] narrative will never not be stupid. 2942 00:51:31,430 --> 00:51:31,440 narrative will never not be stupid. 2943 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,630 narrative will never not be stupid. Archaeologists want to find amazing 2944 00:51:34,630 --> 00:51:34,640 Archaeologists want to find amazing 2945 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:37,589 Archaeologists want to find amazing things. They want to uncover astonishing 2946 00:51:37,589 --> 00:51:37,599 things. They want to uncover astonishing 2947 00:51:37,599 --> 00:51:40,790 things. They want to uncover astonishing sites. There is no traditional timeline. 2948 00:51:40,790 --> 00:51:40,800 sites. There is no traditional timeline. 2949 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,510 sites. There is no traditional timeline. Archaeologists are constantly revising 2950 00:51:43,510 --> 00:51:43,520 Archaeologists are constantly revising 2951 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:45,510 Archaeologists are constantly revising timelines. They wouldn't block an 2952 00:51:45,510 --> 00:51:45,520 timelines. They wouldn't block an 2953 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:47,349 timelines. They wouldn't block an amazing discovery for literally no 2954 00:51:47,349 --> 00:51:47,359 amazing discovery for literally no 2955 00:51:47,359 --> 00:51:49,349 amazing discovery for literally no reason. Anyone who falls for this story 2956 00:51:49,349 --> 00:51:49,359 reason. Anyone who falls for this story 2957 00:51:49,359 --> 00:51:51,109 reason. Anyone who falls for this story is an idiot. Now, I don't think this is 2958 00:51:51,109 --> 00:51:51,119 is an idiot. Now, I don't think this is 2959 00:51:51,119 --> 00:51:52,870 is an idiot. Now, I don't think this is wholly true, and I do have an update on 2960 00:51:52,870 --> 00:51:52,880 wholly true, and I do have an update on 2961 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:54,470 wholly true, and I do have an update on this, which I'll get to in just a 2962 00:51:54,470 --> 00:51:54,480 this, which I'll get to in just a 2963 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,309 this, which I'll get to in just a second. But first, we need to talk about 2964 00:51:56,309 --> 00:51:56,319 second. But first, we need to talk about 2965 00:51:56,319 --> 00:51:58,630 second. But first, we need to talk about what I believe is a pretty shady 2966 00:51:58,630 --> 00:51:58,640 what I believe is a pretty shady 2967 00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:00,470 what I believe is a pretty shady reaction to the publication of this 2968 00:52:00,470 --> 00:52:00,480 reaction to the publication of this 2969 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:02,309 reaction to the publication of this paper. The reaction to the team's paper 2970 00:52:02,309 --> 00:52:02,319 paper. The reaction to the team's paper 2971 00:52:02,319 --> 00:52:04,230 paper. The reaction to the team's paper on Gnung Padang has been, to put it 2972 00:52:04,230 --> 00:52:04,240 on Gnung Padang has been, to put it 2973 00:52:04,240 --> 00:52:06,790 on Gnung Padang has been, to put it mildly, extremely shady. The paper was 2974 00:52:06,790 --> 00:52:06,800 mildly, extremely shady. The paper was 2975 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:08,950 mildly, extremely shady. The paper was met with an onslaught of criticism, much 2976 00:52:08,950 --> 00:52:08,960 met with an onslaught of criticism, much 2977 00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:10,630 met with an onslaught of criticism, much of it coming from academics who have 2978 00:52:10,630 --> 00:52:10,640 of it coming from academics who have 2979 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:12,630 of it coming from academics who have never even set foot at the site, let 2980 00:52:12,630 --> 00:52:12,640 never even set foot at the site, let 2981 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:14,790 never even set foot at the site, let alone conducted any meaningful research 2982 00:52:14,790 --> 00:52:14,800 alone conducted any meaningful research 2983 00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,950 alone conducted any meaningful research there. The paper's retraction wasn't due 2984 00:52:16,950 --> 00:52:16,960 there. The paper's retraction wasn't due 2985 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:19,030 there. The paper's retraction wasn't due to undisputed evidence proving it wrong, 2986 00:52:19,030 --> 00:52:19,040 to undisputed evidence proving it wrong, 2987 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:20,790 to undisputed evidence proving it wrong, but rather because certain individuals 2988 00:52:20,790 --> 00:52:20,800 but rather because certain individuals 2989 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,109 but rather because certain individuals didn't like its interpretation of the 2990 00:52:23,109 --> 00:52:23,119 didn't like its interpretation of the 2991 00:52:23,119 --> 00:52:25,109 didn't like its interpretation of the data provided. Now, that's not how 2992 00:52:25,109 --> 00:52:25,119 data provided. Now, that's not how 2993 00:52:25,119 --> 00:52:26,790 data provided. Now, that's not how science is supposed to work. You can't 2994 00:52:26,790 --> 00:52:26,800 science is supposed to work. You can't 2995 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:28,470 science is supposed to work. You can't retract a paper because you disagree 2996 00:52:28,470 --> 00:52:28,480 retract a paper because you disagree 2997 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,390 retract a paper because you disagree with the conclusion. Plenty of published 2998 00:52:30,390 --> 00:52:30,400 with the conclusion. Plenty of published 2999 00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:32,470 with the conclusion. Plenty of published papers are the subject of intense debate 3000 00:52:32,470 --> 00:52:32,480 papers are the subject of intense debate 3001 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,109 papers are the subject of intense debate and disagreement. Nobody has to set foot 3002 00:52:35,109 --> 00:52:35,119 and disagreement. Nobody has to set foot 3003 00:52:35,119 --> 00:52:37,270 and disagreement. Nobody has to set foot at a particular site to identify 3004 00:52:37,270 --> 00:52:37,280 at a particular site to identify 3005 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,150 at a particular site to identify scientific fraudulence, [\h__\h] Natawagia 3006 00:52:40,150 --> 00:52:40,160 scientific fraudulence, [\h__\h] Natawagia 3007 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,549 scientific fraudulence, [\h__\h] Natawagia did [\h__\h] science to push a grift. Real 3008 00:52:42,549 --> 00:52:42,559 did [\h__\h] science to push a grift. Real 3009 00:52:42,559 --> 00:52:44,710 did [\h__\h] science to push a grift. Real scientists recognize that and exposed 3010 00:52:44,710 --> 00:52:44,720 scientists recognize that and exposed 3011 00:52:44,720 --> 00:52:47,030 scientists recognize that and exposed him for it. That's not shady. That's 3012 00:52:47,030 --> 00:52:47,040 him for it. That's not shady. That's 3013 00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:48,790 him for it. That's not shady. That's called academic and intellectual 3014 00:52:48,790 --> 00:52:48,800 called academic and intellectual 3015 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,349 called academic and intellectual integrity. A totally foreign concept to 3016 00:52:51,349 --> 00:52:51,359 integrity. A totally foreign concept to 3017 00:52:51,359 --> 00:52:53,670 integrity. A totally foreign concept to everyone in this disgusting cult. Frauds 3018 00:52:53,670 --> 00:52:53,680 everyone in this disgusting cult. Frauds 3019 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:55,670 everyone in this disgusting cult. Frauds like Button want to portray deliberate 3020 00:52:55,670 --> 00:52:55,680 like Button want to portray deliberate 3021 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:57,829 like Button want to portray deliberate distortion of data as a different 3022 00:52:57,829 --> 00:52:57,839 distortion of data as a different 3023 00:52:57,839 --> 00:53:00,230 distortion of data as a different interpretation. so they can slam real 3024 00:53:00,230 --> 00:53:00,240 interpretation. so they can slam real 3025 00:53:00,240 --> 00:53:02,710 interpretation. so they can slam real scholars for being closedminded. But he 3026 00:53:02,710 --> 00:53:02,720 scholars for being closedminded. But he 3027 00:53:02,720 --> 00:53:04,950 scholars for being closedminded. But he may as well be Terrence Howard saying 1* 3028 00:53:04,950 --> 00:53:04,960 may as well be Terrence Howard saying 1* 3029 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:06,950 may as well be Terrence Howard saying 1* 1 equals two. There are legitimate 3030 00:53:06,950 --> 00:53:06,960 1 equals two. There are legitimate 3031 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,109 1 equals two. There are legitimate papers that spur legitimate debate. And 3032 00:53:09,109 --> 00:53:09,119 papers that spur legitimate debate. And 3033 00:53:09,119 --> 00:53:10,630 papers that spur legitimate debate. And then there are frauds who publish 3034 00:53:10,630 --> 00:53:10,640 then there are frauds who publish 3035 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:12,309 then there are frauds who publish pseudocience. These are different 3036 00:53:12,309 --> 00:53:12,319 pseudocience. These are different 3037 00:53:12,319 --> 00:53:14,150 pseudocience. These are different categories and this paper is in the 3038 00:53:14,150 --> 00:53:14,160 categories and this paper is in the 3039 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:15,990 categories and this paper is in the latter. Then there's Nature publishing 3040 00:53:15,990 --> 00:53:16,000 latter. Then there's Nature publishing 3041 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:17,750 latter.

So, let's continue. Many 3240 00:56:50,069 --> 00:56:50,079 before. So, let's continue. Many 3241 00:56:50,079 --> 00:56:52,150 before. So, let's continue. Many archaeologists see Hanok as a threat to 3242 00:56:52,150 --> 00:56:52,160 archaeologists see Hanok as a threat to 3243 00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:53,670 archaeologists see Hanok as a threat to their field, portraying him as a 3244 00:56:53,670 --> 00:56:53,680 their field, portraying him as a 3245 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:55,829 their field, portraying him as a pseudocientist, even when the research 3246 00:56:55,829 --> 00:56:55,839 pseudocientist, even when the research 3247 00:56:55,839 --> 00:56:57,750 pseudocientist, even when the research he highlights, like Dr. Hillman's, 3248 00:56:57,750 --> 00:56:57,760 he highlights, like Dr. Hillman's, 3249 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,670 he highlights, like Dr. Hillman's, follows legitimate scientific methods. 3250 00:56:59,670 --> 00:56:59,680 follows legitimate scientific methods. 3251 00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:01,670 follows legitimate scientific methods. If Ganung Padang really is as old as 3252 00:57:01,670 --> 00:57:01,680 If Ganung Padang really is as old as 3253 00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:03,750 If Ganung Padang really is as old as this data suggests, it forces a 3254 00:57:03,750 --> 00:57:03,760 this data suggests, it forces a 3255 00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:05,510 this data suggests, it forces a re-evaluation of human history, 3256 00:57:05,510 --> 00:57:05,520 re-evaluation of human history, 3257 00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:07,270 re-evaluation of human history, something mainstream academics seem 3258 00:57:07,270 --> 00:57:07,280 something mainstream academics seem 3259 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,430 something mainstream academics seem unwilling to entertain. The aggressive 3260 00:57:09,430 --> 00:57:09,440 unwilling to entertain. The aggressive 3261 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:11,030 unwilling to entertain. The aggressive push back isn't about protecting 3262 00:57:11,030 --> 00:57:11,040 push back isn't about protecting 3263 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:12,630 push back isn't about protecting science. It's about [music] protecting 3264 00:57:12,630 --> 00:57:12,640 science. It's about [music] protecting 3265 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:14,950 science. It's about [music] protecting an entrenched paradigm. Again, this does 3266 00:57:14,950 --> 00:57:14,960 an entrenched paradigm. Again, this does 3267 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:17,349 an entrenched paradigm. Again, this does not mean that the proposed older date is 3268 00:57:17,349 --> 00:57:17,359 not mean that the proposed older date is 3269 00:57:17,359 --> 00:57:19,190 not mean that the proposed older date is necessarily correct. I just think the 3270 00:57:19,190 --> 00:57:19,200 necessarily correct. I just think the 3271 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,750 necessarily correct. I just think the retraction, criticism, and slander is 3272 00:57:21,750 --> 00:57:21,760 retraction, criticism, and slander is 3273 00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:23,670 retraction, criticism, and slander is unjustified, considering it's all based 3274 00:57:23,670 --> 00:57:23,680 unjustified, considering it's all based 3275 00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:26,549 unjustified, considering it's all based on interpretation of good, solid data. 3276 00:57:26,549 --> 00:57:26,559 on interpretation of good, solid data. 3277 00:57:26,559 --> 00:57:28,390 on interpretation of good, solid data. That being said, the authors did make 3278 00:57:28,390 --> 00:57:28,400 That being said, the authors did make 3279 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,150 That being said, the authors did make some pretty definitive claims about 3280 00:57:30,150 --> 00:57:30,160 some pretty definitive claims about 3281 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:32,230 some pretty definitive claims about Ganung Padang's extreme age, presenting 3282 00:57:32,230 --> 00:57:32,240 Ganung Padang's extreme age, presenting 3283 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:33,910 Ganung Padang's extreme age, presenting their conclusions with more certainty 3284 00:57:33,910 --> 00:57:33,920 their conclusions with more certainty 3285 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:35,829 their conclusions with more certainty than the evidence might strictly allow. 3286 00:57:35,829 --> 00:57:35,839 than the evidence might strictly allow. 3287 00:57:35,839 --> 00:57:37,349 than the evidence might strictly allow. A more cautious approach in their 3288 00:57:37,349 --> 00:57:37,359 A more cautious approach in their 3289 00:57:37,359 --> 00:57:38,950 A more cautious approach in their language could have helped avoid some of 3290 00:57:38,950 --> 00:57:38,960 language could have helped avoid some of 3291 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:41,190 language could have helped avoid some of the backlash. Likewise, some of the more 3292 00:57:41,190 --> 00:57:41,200 the backlash. Likewise, some of the more 3293 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:43,270 the backlash. Likewise, some of the more extreme reactions, accusations that 3294 00:57:43,270 --> 00:57:43,280 extreme reactions, accusations that 3295 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:45,430 extreme reactions, accusations that archaeologists are deliberately covering 3296 00:57:45,430 --> 00:57:45,440 archaeologists are deliberately covering 3297 00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:47,430 archaeologists are deliberately covering things up or corruptly suppressing the 3298 00:57:47,430 --> 00:57:47,440 things up or corruptly suppressing the 3299 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:49,670 things up or corruptly suppressing the truth aren't helpful either. Not every 3300 00:57:49,670 --> 00:57:49,680 truth aren't helpful either. Not every 3301 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:51,270 truth aren't helpful either. Not every academic is part of some grand 3302 00:57:51,270 --> 00:57:51,280 academic is part of some grand 3303 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,190 academic is part of some grand conspiracy. Many are just skeptical, 3304 00:57:53,190 --> 00:57:53,200 conspiracy. Many are just skeptical, 3305 00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:54,789 conspiracy. Many are just skeptical, which is a natural part of the 3306 00:57:54,789 --> 00:57:54,799 which is a natural part of the 3307 00:57:54,799 --> 00:57:57,190 which is a natural part of the scientific process. He's so charitable, 3308 00:57:57,190 --> 00:57:57,200 scientific process. He's so charitable, 3309 00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:59,270 scientific process. He's so charitable, you guys. He spent the entire video 3310 00:57:59,270 --> 00:57:59,280 you guys. He spent the entire video 3311 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,030 you guys. He spent the entire video poisoning the well, whining about 3312 00:58:01,030 --> 00:58:01,040 poisoning the well, whining about 3313 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:03,109 poisoning the well, whining about gatekeeping, and spewing horseshit about 3314 00:58:03,109 --> 00:58:03,119 gatekeeping, and spewing horseshit about 3315 00:58:03,119 --> 00:58:05,190 gatekeeping, and spewing horseshit about how archaeologists don't want timelines 3316 00:58:05,190 --> 00:58:05,200 how archaeologists don't want timelines 3317 00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:07,349 how archaeologists don't want timelines to be revised, even though that happens 3318 00:58:07,349 --> 00:58:07,359 to be revised, even though that happens 3319 00:58:07,359 --> 00:58:09,349 to be revised, even though that happens literally constantly. But not all 3320 00:58:09,349 --> 00:58:09,359 literally constantly. But not all 3321 00:58:09,359 --> 00:58:11,510 literally constantly. But not all academics are part of a grand conspiracy 3322 00:58:11,510 --> 00:58:11,520 academics are part of a grand conspiracy 3323 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:13,589 academics are part of a grand conspiracy that I am overtly outlining in every 3324 00:58:13,589 --> 00:58:13,599 that I am overtly outlining in every 3325 00:58:13,599 --> 00:58:15,670 that I am overtly outlining in every single video. Okay, guys. At the end of 3326 00:58:15,670 --> 00:58:15,680 single video. Okay, guys. At the end of 3327 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:17,510 single video. Okay, guys. At the end of the day, wouldn't it be better if both 3328 00:58:17,510 --> 00:58:17,520 the day, wouldn't it be better if both 3329 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,069 the day, wouldn't it be better if both sides engaged in open-minded discussion 3330 00:58:20,069 --> 00:58:20,079 sides engaged in open-minded discussion 3331 00:58:20,079 --> 00:58:21,910 sides engaged in open-minded discussion rather than resorting to dogmatic 3332 00:58:21,910 --> 00:58:21,920 rather than resorting to dogmatic 3333 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,470 rather than resorting to dogmatic dismissals or inflammatory accusations? 3334 00:58:24,470 --> 00:58:24,480 dismissals or inflammatory accusations? 3335 00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:26,789 dismissals or inflammatory accusations?

Moving right along, let's hit one 3364 00:58:57,670 --> 00:58:57,680 it. Moving right along, let's hit one 3365 00:58:57,680 --> 00:58:59,910 it. Moving right along, let's hit one more video of his called an entire 3366 00:58:59,910 --> 00:58:59,920 more video of his called an entire 3367 00:58:59,920 --> 00:59:02,069 more video of his called an entire civilization might be buried under the 3368 00:59:02,069 --> 00:59:02,079 civilization might be buried under the 3369 00:59:02,079 --> 00:59:04,710 civilization might be buried under the Sahara. Man, this wanker really is just 3370 00:59:04,710 --> 00:59:04,720 Sahara. Man, this wanker really is just 3371 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:06,870 Sahara. Man, this wanker really is just a Grahamcock clone, isn't he? Even 3372 00:59:06,870 --> 00:59:06,880 a Grahamcock clone, isn't he? Even 3373 00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:08,390 a Grahamcock clone, isn't he? Even though he won't explicitly mention 3374 00:59:08,390 --> 00:59:08,400 though he won't explicitly mention 3375 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:10,069 though he won't explicitly mention Graham so that he doesn't give away his 3376 00:59:10,069 --> 00:59:10,079 Graham so that he doesn't give away his 3377 00:59:10,079 --> 00:59:12,230 Graham so that he doesn't give away his complete lack of originality, everything 3378 00:59:12,230 --> 00:59:12,240 complete lack of originality, everything 3379 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:14,230 complete lack of originality, everything in this video is some [\h__\h] Graham 3380 00:59:14,230 --> 00:59:14,240 in this video is some [\h__\h] Graham 3381 00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:15,990 in this video is some [\h__\h] Graham has spewed that has been debunked a 3382 00:59:15,990 --> 00:59:16,000 has spewed that has been debunked a 3383 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,990 has spewed that has been debunked a thousand times. Let's check it out. The 3384 00:59:17,990 --> 00:59:18,000 thousand times. Let's check it out. The 3385 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:19,910 thousand times. Let's check it out. The collapse of the Green Sahara lines up 3386 00:59:19,910 --> 00:59:19,920 collapse of the Green Sahara lines up 3387 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:22,309 collapse of the Green Sahara lines up almost perfectly with the sudden rise of 3388 00:59:22,309 --> 00:59:22,319 almost perfectly with the sudden rise of 3389 00:59:22,319 --> 00:59:25,349 almost perfectly with the sudden rise of ancient Egypt. That's odd. Why would one 3390 00:59:25,349 --> 00:59:25,359 ancient Egypt. That's odd. Why would one 3391 00:59:25,359 --> 00:59:28,069 ancient Egypt. That's odd. Why would one of history's most iconic civilizations 3392 00:59:28,069 --> 00:59:28,079 of history's most iconic civilizations 3393 00:59:28,079 --> 00:59:30,789 of history's most iconic civilizations emerge right after the environments got 3394 00:59:30,789 --> 00:59:30,799 emerge right after the environments got 3395 00:59:30,799 --> 00:59:33,030 emerge right after the environments got worse? This goes against everything we 3396 00:59:33,030 --> 00:59:33,040 worse? This goes against everything we 3397 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,589 worse? This goes against everything we know about how civilizations form. 3398 00:59:35,589 --> 00:59:35,599 know about how civilizations form. 3399 00:59:35,599 --> 00:59:38,296 know about how civilizations form. Usually, they rise because of abundance, 3400 00:59:38,296 --> 00:59:38,306 Usually, they rise because of abundance, 3401 00:59:38,306 --> 00:59:39,990 Usually, they rise because of abundance, [music] not in the wake of environmental 3402 00:59:39,990 --> 00:59:40,000 [music] not in the wake of environmental 3403 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,789 [music] not in the wake of environmental disaster. But here's a thought. What if 3404 00:59:42,789 --> 00:59:42,799 disaster. But here's a thought. What if 3405 00:59:42,799 --> 00:59:45,349 disaster. But here's a thought. What if the civilization we call ancient Egypt 3406 00:59:45,349 --> 00:59:45,359 the civilization we call ancient Egypt 3407 00:59:45,359 --> 00:59:47,190 the civilization we call ancient Egypt wasn't [music] the beginning, but the 3408 00:59:47,190 --> 00:59:47,200 wasn't [music] the beginning, but the 3409 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,829 wasn't [music] the beginning, but the continuation? As the Sahara dried up, 3410 00:59:49,829 --> 00:59:49,839 continuation? As the Sahara dried up, 3411 00:59:49,839 --> 00:59:51,670 continuation? As the Sahara dried up, what if the people who once lived in 3412 00:59:51,670 --> 00:59:51,680 what if the people who once lived in 3413 00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:53,370 what if the people who once lived in those fertile lands were forced to 3414 00:59:53,370 --> 00:59:53,380 those fertile lands were forced to 3415 00:59:53,380 --> 00:59:55,190 those fertile lands were forced to [music] migrate, clinging to the last 3416 00:59:55,190 --> 00:59:55,200 [music] migrate, clinging to the last 3417 00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:57,589 [music] migrate, clinging to the last stretch of green, the Nile River? It 3418 00:59:57,589 --> 00:59:57,599 stretch of green, the Nile River? It 3419 00:59:57,599 --> 00:59:59,430 stretch of green, the Nile River? It would have been the final oasis, the 3420 00:59:59,430 --> 00:59:59,440 would have been the final oasis, the 3421 00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:01,750 would have been the final oasis, the last viable lifeline in a collapsing 3422 01:00:01,750 --> 01:00:01,760 last viable lifeline in a collapsing 3423 01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,069 last viable lifeline in a collapsing world. Could the founders of Egypt have 3424 01:00:04,069 --> 01:00:04,079 world. Could the founders of Egypt have 3425 01:00:04,079 --> 01:00:06,309 world. Could the founders of Egypt have been the remnants of a lost culture, one 3426 01:00:06,309 --> 01:00:06,319 been the remnants of a lost culture, one 3427 01:00:06,319 --> 01:00:08,390 been the remnants of a lost culture, one that thrived in the Sahara during its 3428 01:00:08,390 --> 01:00:08,400 that thrived in the Sahara during its 3429 01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:09,910 that thrived in the Sahara during its green golden age, and who [music] have 3430 01:00:09,910 --> 01:00:09,920 green golden age, and who [music] have 3431 01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:12,710 green golden age, and who [music] have since been lost to time? What if indeed 3432 01:00:12,710 --> 01:00:12,720 since been lost to time? What if indeed 3433 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,390 since been lost to time? What if indeed you guys? Well, we don't need to 3434 01:00:14,390 --> 01:00:14,400 you guys? Well, we don't need to 3435 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:16,470 you guys? Well, we don't need to speculate. There were civilizations in 3436 01:00:16,470 --> 01:00:16,480 speculate. There were civilizations in 3437 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:18,549 speculate. There were civilizations in Africa before Egypt. They're called 3438 01:00:18,549 --> 01:00:18,559 Africa before Egypt. They're called 3439 01:00:18,559 --> 01:00:21,030 Africa before Egypt. They're called pre-dynastic Egyptian cultures. This is 3440 01:00:21,030 --> 01:00:21,040 pre-dynastic Egyptian cultures. This is 3441 01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:23,109 pre-dynastic Egyptian cultures. This is common knowledge among archaeologists. 3442 01:00:23,109 --> 01:00:23,119 common knowledge among archaeologists. 3443 01:00:23,119 --> 01:00:24,470 common knowledge among archaeologists. That doesn't mean they were super 3444 01:00:24,470 --> 01:00:24,480 That doesn't mean they were super 3445 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:26,789 That doesn't mean they were super advanced cities with space lasers, but 3446 01:00:26,789 --> 01:00:26,799 advanced cities with space lasers, but 3447 01:00:26,799 --> 01:00:28,950 advanced cities with space lasers, but it's a thing. Mikey is pretending to be 3448 01:00:28,950 --> 01:00:28,960 it's a thing. Mikey is pretending to be 3449 01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:31,270 it's a thing. Mikey is pretending to be a super genius, suggesting a bold new 3450 01:00:31,270 --> 01:00:31,280 a super genius, suggesting a bold new 3451 01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,430 a super genius, suggesting a bold new theory that is basically just facts we 3452 01:00:33,430 --> 01:00:33,440 theory that is basically just facts we 3453 01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:35,270 theory that is basically just facts we already know. Amazing. Now, according to 3454 01:00:35,270 --> 01:00:35,280 already know. Amazing. Now, according to 3455 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:37,589 already know. Amazing. Now, according to the orthodox view, this is impossible. 3456 01:00:37,589 --> 01:00:37,599 the orthodox view, this is impossible. 3457 01:00:37,599 --> 01:00:39,430 the orthodox view, this is impossible. There cannot have been any civilization 3458 01:00:39,430 --> 01:00:39,440 There cannot have been any civilization 3459 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,349 There cannot have been any civilization in this region that predated ancient 3460 01:00:41,349 --> 01:00:41,359 in this region that predated ancient 3461 01:00:41,359 --> 01:00:43,990 in this region that predated ancient Egypt. But intriguingly, that's not what 3462 01:00:43,990 --> 01:00:44,000 Egypt. But intriguingly, that's not what 3463 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:46,470 Egypt. But intriguingly, that's not what the Egyptians themselves believed. 3464 01:00:46,470 --> 01:00:46,480 the Egyptians themselves believed. 3465 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:48,630 the Egyptians themselves believed. Cannot have been any civilization in 3466 01:00:48,630 --> 01:00:48,640 Cannot have been any civilization in 3467 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:50,870 Cannot have been any civilization in this region that predated ancient Egypt? 3468 01:00:50,870 --> 01:00:50,880 this region that predated ancient Egypt? 3469 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:52,309 this region that predated ancient Egypt?

Nubia, the Bedarian, and the Natada. 3480 01:01:03,270 --> 01:01:03,280 Nubia, the Bedarian, and the Natada. 3481 01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:05,510 Nubia, the Bedarian, and the Natada. Much is known about these cultures going 3482 01:01:05,510 --> 01:01:05,520 Much is known about these cultures going 3483 01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:08,069 Much is known about these cultures going all the way back to 4,500 B.CE. The 3484 01:01:08,069 --> 01:01:08,079 all the way back to 4,500 B.CE. The 3485 01:01:08,079 --> 01:01:09,430 all the way back to 4,500 B.CE. The relationship between Sahara and 3486 01:01:09,430 --> 01:01:09,440 relationship between Sahara and 3487 01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:11,430 relationship between Sahara and Neolithic cultures and early dynastic 3488 01:01:11,430 --> 01:01:11,440 Neolithic cultures and early dynastic 3489 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,150 Neolithic cultures and early dynastic Egypt is an active and well-funded area 3490 01:01:14,150 --> 01:01:14,160 Egypt is an active and well-funded area 3491 01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:16,470 Egypt is an active and well-funded area of research. Nobody in the field is 3492 01:01:16,470 --> 01:01:16,480 of research. Nobody in the field is 3493 01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:18,390 of research. Nobody in the field is claiming it is impossible that people 3494 01:01:18,390 --> 01:01:18,400 claiming it is impossible that people 3495 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,710 claiming it is impossible that people lived in the Sahara before Egypt or that 3496 01:01:20,710 --> 01:01:20,720 lived in the Sahara before Egypt or that 3497 01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:22,230 lived in the Sahara before Egypt or that those people didn't contribute to 3498 01:01:22,230 --> 01:01:22,240 those people didn't contribute to 3499 01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:24,710 those people didn't contribute to Egyptian civilization. Yet again, the 3500 01:01:24,710 --> 01:01:24,720 Egyptian civilization. Yet again, the 3501 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:26,549 Egyptian civilization. Yet again, the assertion that the closedminded 3502 01:01:26,549 --> 01:01:26,559 assertion that the closedminded 3503 01:01:26,559 --> 01:01:28,950 assertion that the closedminded orthodoxy forbids this question is 3504 01:01:28,950 --> 01:01:28,960 orthodoxy forbids this question is 3505 01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:30,789 orthodoxy forbids this question is nothing but a lie to make Button look 3506 01:01:30,789 --> 01:01:30,799 nothing but a lie to make Button look 3507 01:01:30,799 --> 01:01:32,710 nothing but a lie to make Button look like an ultra brave truth teller. 3508 01:01:32,710 --> 01:01:32,720 like an ultra brave truth teller. 3509 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:34,870 like an ultra brave truth teller. pushing back against a closed-minded 3510 01:01:34,870 --> 01:01:34,880 pushing back against a closed-minded 3511 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:37,109 pushing back against a closed-minded establishment. It's beyond pathetic. 3512 01:01:37,109 --> 01:01:37,119 establishment. It's beyond pathetic. 3513 01:01:37,119 --> 01:01:38,710 establishment. It's beyond pathetic. >> The ancient Egyptians didn't see 3514 01:01:38,710 --> 01:01:38,720 >> The ancient Egyptians didn't see 3515 01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:40,789 >> The ancient Egyptians didn't see themselves as the beginning. They saw 3516 01:01:40,789 --> 01:01:40,799 themselves as the beginning. They saw 3517 01:01:40,799 --> 01:01:42,630 themselves as the beginning. They saw themselves as the inheritors of 3518 01:01:42,630 --> 01:01:42,640 themselves as the inheritors of 3519 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:44,789 themselves as the inheritors of something much older, a legacy 3520 01:01:44,789 --> 01:01:44,799 something much older, a legacy 3521 01:01:44,799 --> 01:01:46,710 something much older, a legacy civilization. And we know this because 3522 01:01:46,710 --> 01:01:46,720 civilization. And we know this because 3523 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:49,270 civilization. And we know this because of the records that they left behind. 3524 01:01:49,270 --> 01:01:49,280 of the records that they left behind. 3525 01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:51,670 of the records that they left behind. Three major ancient texts, the Abidos 3526 01:01:51,670 --> 01:01:51,680 Three major ancient texts, the Abidos 3527 01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:53,670 Three major ancient texts, the Abidos king list, the Turing King list, and the 3528 01:01:53,670 --> 01:01:53,680 king list, the Turing King list, and the 3529 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:55,750 king list, the Turing King list, and the Polmo Stone give us our earliest 3530 01:01:55,750 --> 01:01:55,760 Polmo Stone give us our earliest 3531 01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:58,150 Polmo Stone give us our earliest timelines of Egyptian rulers. In all 3532 01:01:58,150 --> 01:01:58,160 timelines of Egyptian rulers. In all 3533 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:00,390 timelines of Egyptian rulers. In all three cases, the Egyptians recount a 3534 01:02:00,390 --> 01:02:00,400 three cases, the Egyptians recount a 3535 01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:02,230 three cases, the Egyptians recount a past that extends not just a few 3536 01:02:02,230 --> 01:02:02,240 past that extends not just a few 3537 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:03,670 past that extends not just a few centuries beyond a conventional 3538 01:02:03,670 --> 01:02:03,680 centuries beyond a conventional 3539 01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:06,870 centuries beyond a conventional timeline, but over 30,000 years further 3540 01:02:06,870 --> 01:02:06,880 timeline, but over 30,000 years further 3541 01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:09,270 timeline, but over 30,000 years further back. However, modern historians don't 3542 01:02:09,270 --> 01:02:09,280 back. However, modern historians don't 3543 01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:11,510 back. However, modern historians don't believe them. Egyptologists today 3544 01:02:11,510 --> 01:02:11,520 believe them. Egyptologists today 3545 01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:13,510 believe them. Egyptologists today selectively decide which parts of these 3546 01:02:13,510 --> 01:02:13,520 selectively decide which parts of these 3547 01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:15,829 selectively decide which parts of these records to accept as fact and which to 3548 01:02:15,829 --> 01:02:15,839 records to accept as fact and which to 3549 01:02:15,839 --> 01:02:17,829 records to accept as fact and which to dismiss as myth despite the fact the 3550 01:02:17,829 --> 01:02:17,839 dismiss as myth despite the fact the 3551 01:02:17,839 --> 01:02:20,069 dismiss as myth despite the fact the original Egyptian authors made no such 3552 01:02:20,069 --> 01:02:20,079 original Egyptian authors made no such 3553 01:02:20,079 --> 01:02:22,069 original Egyptian authors made no such distinction. Let's look at the Wikipedia 3554 01:02:22,069 --> 01:02:22,079 distinction. Let's look at the Wikipedia 3555 01:02:22,079 --> 01:02:24,150 distinction. Let's look at the Wikipedia page for the Touring King list. It 3556 01:02:24,150 --> 01:02:24,160 page for the Touring King list. It 3557 01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:26,309 page for the Touring King list. It confidently states that the papyrus was 3558 01:02:26,309 --> 01:02:26,319 confidently states that the papyrus was 3559 01:02:26,319 --> 01:02:28,390 confidently states that the papyrus was originally a tax role, but on its back 3560 01:02:28,390 --> 01:02:28,400 originally a tax role, but on its back 3561 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:30,069 originally a tax role, but on its back is written a list of the rulers of 3562 01:02:30,069 --> 01:02:30,079 is written a list of the rulers of 3563 01:02:30,079 --> 01:02:32,390 is written a list of the rulers of Egypt, including mythical kings such as 3564 01:02:32,390 --> 01:02:32,400 Egypt, including mythical kings such as 3565 01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:34,710 Egypt, including mythical kings such as gods, demigods, and spirits, as well as 3566 01:02:34,710 --> 01:02:34,720 gods, demigods, and spirits, as well as 3567 01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:37,510 gods, demigods, and spirits, as well as human kings. But here's the key problem. 3568 01:02:37,510 --> 01:02:37,520 human kings. But here's the key problem. 3569 01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:39,829 human kings. But here's the key problem. The ancient Egyptians themselves never 3570 01:02:39,829 --> 01:02:39,839 The ancient Egyptians themselves never 3571 01:02:39,839 --> 01:02:41,829 The ancient Egyptians themselves never categorized their rulers this way. To 3572 01:02:41,829 --> 01:02:41,839 categorized their rulers this way. To 3573 01:02:41,839 --> 01:02:43,910 categorized their rulers this way. To them, this was simply a record of their 3574 01:02:43,910 --> 01:02:43,920 them, this was simply a record of their 3575 01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:46,390 them, this was simply a record of their past, one continuous line of kings and 3576 01:02:46,390 --> 01:02:46,400 past, one continuous line of kings and 3577 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:48,710 past, one continuous line of kings and rulers stretching deep into prehistory. 3578 01:02:48,710 --> 01:02:48,720 rulers stretching deep into prehistory. 3579 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:50,870 rulers stretching deep into prehistory. This division between real and mythical 3580 01:02:50,870 --> 01:02:50,880 This division between real and mythical 3581 01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:52,789 This division between real and mythical is a modern invention. But to the 3582 01:02:52,789 --> 01:02:52,799 is a modern invention. But to the 3583 01:02:52,799 --> 01:02:54,549 is a modern invention. But to the ancient Egyptians, this was all one 3584 01:02:54,549 --> 01:02:54,559 ancient Egyptians, this was all one 3585 01:02:54,559 --> 01:02:56,390 ancient Egyptians, this was all one continuous record. They didn't view 3586 01:02:56,390 --> 01:02:56,400 continuous record. They didn't view 3587 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,470 continuous record. They didn't view their past as legend. They viewed it as 3588 01:02:58,470 --> 01:02:58,480 their past as legend. They viewed it as 3589 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:00,309 their past as legend. They viewed it as history. As is often the case with 3590 01:03:00,309 --> 01:03:00,319 history. As is often the case with 3591 01:03:00,319 --> 01:03:01,910 history. As is often the case with frauds like Button, we get a few 3592 01:03:01,910 --> 01:03:01,920 frauds like Button, we get a few 3593 01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:03,750 frauds like Button, we get a few legitimate facts mixed in with a bunch 3594 01:03:03,750 --> 01:03:03,760 legitimate facts mixed in with a bunch 3595 01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:05,910 legitimate facts mixed in with a bunch of [\h__\h] The Tin King list opens 3596 01:03:05,910 --> 01:03:05,920 of [\h__\h] The Tin King list opens 3597 01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:07,750 of [\h__\h] The Tin King list opens with a mythological section listing 3598 01:03:07,750 --> 01:03:07,760 with a mythological section listing 3599 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:10,390 with a mythological section listing divine figures including Pat and Rah. 3600 01:03:10,390 --> 01:03:10,400 divine figures including Pat and Rah. 3601 01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:12,309 divine figures including Pat and Rah. Then transitions through a category the 3602 01:03:12,309 --> 01:03:12,319 Then transitions through a category the 3603 01:03:12,319 --> 01:03:14,870 Then transitions through a category the document itself labels the Shamsu [\h__\h] 3604 01:03:14,870 --> 01:03:14,880 document itself labels the Shamsu [\h__\h] 3605 01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:17,109 document itself labels the Shamsu [\h__\h] or the followers of Horus and then 3606 01:03:17,109 --> 01:03:17,119 or the followers of Horus and then 3607 01:03:17,119 --> 01:03:19,270 or the followers of Horus and then begins with the historical pharaohs. The 3608 01:03:19,270 --> 01:03:19,280 begins with the historical pharaohs. The 3609 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,270 begins with the historical pharaohs. The document organizes these categories 3610 01:03:21,270 --> 01:03:21,280 document organizes these categories 3611 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,430 document organizes these categories through its own structure, headings, and 3612 01:03:23,430 --> 01:03:23,440 through its own structure, headings, and 3613 01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:24,950 through its own structure, headings, and the character of the entries. 3614 01:03:24,950 --> 01:03:24,960 the character of the entries. 3615 01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,029 the character of the entries. Egyptologists did not invent the 3616 01:03:27,029 --> 01:03:27,039 Egyptologists did not invent the 3617 01:03:27,039 --> 01:03:29,270 Egyptologists did not invent the distinction. He's lying. The Abbidos 3618 01:03:29,270 --> 01:03:29,280 distinction. He's lying. The Abbidos 3619 01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:31,270 distinction. He's lying. The Abbidos king list is a cultic document. The 3620 01:03:31,270 --> 01:03:31,280 king list is a cultic document. The 3621 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:33,349 king list is a cultic document. The inscription above the cartes says 3622 01:03:33,349 --> 01:03:33,359 inscription above the cartes says 3623 01:03:33,359 --> 01:03:36,630 inscription above the cartes says exactly what it is, a ritual in which Si 3624 01:03:36,630 --> 01:03:36,640 exactly what it is, a ritual in which Si 3625 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:38,870 exactly what it is, a ritual in which Si bestows offerings upon his royal 3626 01:03:38,870 --> 01:03:38,880 bestows offerings upon his royal 3627 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:41,029 bestows offerings upon his royal ancestors. It excluded the Amarna 3628 01:03:41,029 --> 01:03:41,039 ancestors. It excluded the Amarna 3629 01:03:41,039 --> 01:03:42,630 ancestors. It excluded the Amarna pharaohs entirely because they were 3630 01:03:42,630 --> 01:03:42,640 pharaohs entirely because they were 3631 01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:44,390 pharaohs entirely because they were deemed illegitimate. It is not a 3632 01:03:44,390 --> 01:03:44,400 deemed illegitimate. It is not a 3633 01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:45,910 deemed illegitimate. It is not a chronographic record and it never 3634 01:03:45,910 --> 01:03:45,920 chronographic record and it never 3635 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:47,910 chronographic record and it never claimed to be. The American Research 3636 01:03:47,910 --> 01:03:47,920 claimed to be. The American Research 3637 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:50,150 claimed to be. The American Research Center in Egypt states directly that the 3638 01:03:50,150 --> 01:03:50,160 Center in Egypt states directly that the 3639 01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:52,549 Center in Egypt states directly that the temple king lists served occultic rather 3640 01:03:52,549 --> 01:03:52,559 temple king lists served occultic rather 3641 01:03:52,559 --> 01:03:54,630 temple king lists served occultic rather than historic function and should not be 3642 01:03:54,630 --> 01:03:54,640 than historic function and should not be 3643 01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,109 than historic function and should not be treated as literal chronological lists. 3644 01:03:57,109 --> 01:03:57,119 treated as literal chronological lists. 3645 01:03:57,119 --> 01:03:59,510 treated as literal chronological lists. Then this 30,000year figure comes from 3646 01:03:59,510 --> 01:03:59,520 Then this 30,000year figure comes from 3647 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:01,510 Then this 30,000year figure comes from adding up the reign lengths assigned to 3648 01:04:01,510 --> 01:04:01,520 adding up the reign lengths assigned to 3649 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:03,670 adding up the reign lengths assigned to the divine and semi- divine sections of 3650 01:04:03,670 --> 01:04:03,680 the divine and semi- divine sections of 3651 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:06,470 the divine and semi- divine sections of the Tin list. Egyptologists are aware of 3652 01:04:06,470 --> 01:04:06,480 the Tin list. Egyptologists are aware of 3653 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:08,150 the Tin list. Egyptologists are aware of those figures. They address them and 3654 01:04:08,150 --> 01:04:08,160 those figures. They address them and 3655 01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:09,829 those figures. They address them and they note that these entries operate in 3656 01:04:09,829 --> 01:04:09,839 they note that these entries operate in 3657 01:04:09,839 --> 01:04:12,230 they note that these entries operate in mythological time, not historical time. 3658 01:04:12,230 --> 01:04:12,240 mythological time, not historical time. 3659 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:13,829 mythological time, not historical time. The Egyptians had a conceptual 3660 01:04:13,829 --> 01:04:13,839 The Egyptians had a conceptual 3661 01:04:13,839 --> 01:04:15,910 The Egyptians had a conceptual distinction between cyclical, eternal, 3662 01:04:15,910 --> 01:04:15,920 distinction between cyclical, eternal, 3663 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:18,150 distinction between cyclical, eternal, mythological time and linear historical 3664 01:04:18,150 --> 01:04:18,160 mythological time and linear historical 3665 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:19,990 mythological time and linear historical time. The divine reigns in the king 3666 01:04:19,990 --> 01:04:20,000 time. The divine reigns in the king 3667 01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:21,829 time. The divine reigns in the king lists belong to the former. This is 3668 01:04:21,829 --> 01:04:21,839 lists belong to the former. This is 3669 01:04:21,839 --> 01:04:23,990 lists belong to the former. This is documented in Egyptological literature. 3670 01:04:23,990 --> 01:04:24,000 documented in Egyptological literature. 3671 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:25,829 documented in Egyptological literature. It is not a modern conspiracy to 3672 01:04:25,829 --> 01:04:25,839 It is not a modern conspiracy to 3673 01:04:25,839 --> 01:04:28,390 It is not a modern conspiracy to suppress a 30,000year prehistory. It is 3674 01:04:28,390 --> 01:04:28,400 suppress a 30,000year prehistory. It is 3675 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:29,990 suppress a 30,000year prehistory. It is source criticism, which is what 3676 01:04:29,990 --> 01:04:30,000 source criticism, which is what 3677 01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:31,589 source criticism, which is what historians do with every ancient 3678 01:04:31,589 --> 01:04:31,599 historians do with every ancient 3679 01:04:31,599 --> 01:04:33,589 historians do with every ancient document from every culture on Earth. 3680 01:04:33,589 --> 01:04:33,599 document from every culture on Earth. 3681 01:04:33,599 --> 01:04:35,670 document from every culture on Earth. This is what all these frauds do. They 3682 01:04:35,670 --> 01:04:35,680 This is what all these frauds do. They 3683 01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:37,910 This is what all these frauds do. They cite actual artifacts and sources that 3684 01:04:37,910 --> 01:04:37,920 cite actual artifacts and sources that 3685 01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:40,150 cite actual artifacts and sources that genuinely exist and then just lie about 3686 01:04:40,150 --> 01:04:40,160 genuinely exist and then just lie about 3687 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:41,990 genuinely exist and then just lie about them as though clueless assets on 3688 01:04:41,990 --> 01:04:42,000 them as though clueless assets on 3689 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:43,829 them as though clueless assets on YouTube somehow know more about them 3690 01:04:43,829 --> 01:04:43,839 YouTube somehow know more about them 3691 01:04:43,839 --> 01:04:45,829 YouTube somehow know more about them than the archaeologists who found them 3692 01:04:45,829 --> 01:04:45,839 than the archaeologists who found them 3693 01:04:45,839 --> 01:04:47,510 than the archaeologists who found them and have been studying them their whole 3694 01:04:47,510 --> 01:04:47,520 and have been studying them their whole 3695 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:49,430 and have been studying them their whole lives. It's the most arrogant and 3696 01:04:49,430 --> 01:04:49,440 lives. It's the most arrogant and 3697 01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:50,870 lives. It's the most arrogant and intellectually dishonest thing 3698 01:04:50,870 --> 01:04:50,880 intellectually dishonest thing 3699 01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:53,270 intellectually dishonest thing imaginable. Those dumb archaeologists 3700 01:04:53,270 --> 01:04:53,280 imaginable. Those dumb archaeologists 3701 01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:55,349 imaginable. Those dumb archaeologists don't know how to archaeology. So listen 3702 01:04:55,349 --> 01:04:55,359 don't know how to archaeology. So listen 3703 01:04:55,359 --> 01:04:57,750 don't know how to archaeology. So listen to me fumble absolutely all of it to 3704 01:04:57,750 --> 01:04:57,760 to me fumble absolutely all of it to 3705 01:04:57,760 --> 01:04:59,670 to me fumble absolutely all of it to sell dumb stories on the internet. The 3706 01:04:59,670 --> 01:04:59,680 sell dumb stories on the internet. The 3707 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:01,829 sell dumb stories on the internet. The pseudoarchchaeology cult in a nutshell. 3708 01:05:01,829 --> 01:05:01,839 pseudoarchchaeology cult in a nutshell. 3709 01:05:01,839 --> 01:05:03,430 pseudoarchchaeology cult in a nutshell. So here's the question. What if the 3710 01:05:03,430 --> 01:05:03,440 So here's the question. What if the 3711 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:05,430 So here's the question. What if the civilization we call ancient Egypt 3712 01:05:05,430 --> 01:05:05,440 civilization we call ancient Egypt 3713 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:07,190 civilization we call ancient Egypt wasn't the first spark of human 3714 01:05:07,190 --> 01:05:07,200 wasn't the first spark of human 3715 01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:09,670 wasn't the first spark of human advancement in the region, but a reboot 3716 01:05:09,670 --> 01:05:09,680 advancement in the region, but a reboot 3717 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:12,470 advancement in the region, but a reboot of a much older culture? One now buried 3718 01:05:12,470 --> 01:05:12,480 of a much older culture? One now buried 3719 01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:14,630 of a much older culture? One now buried beneath thousands of years of sand in 3720 01:05:14,630 --> 01:05:14,640 beneath thousands of years of sand in 3721 01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:17,109 beneath thousands of years of sand in what we call the Sahara. Yeah. So, 3722 01:05:17,109 --> 01:05:17,119 what we call the Sahara. Yeah. So, 3723 01:05:17,119 --> 01:05:18,630 what we call the Sahara. Yeah. So, that's quite a bit different. It's what 3724 01:05:18,630 --> 01:05:18,640 that's quite a bit different. It's what 3725 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:20,630 that's quite a bit different. It's what we call the old bait and switch. What if 3726 01:05:20,630 --> 01:05:20,640 we call the old bait and switch. What if 3727 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:22,549 we call the old bait and switch. What if there was stuff before ancient Egypt, 3728 01:05:22,549 --> 01:05:22,559 there was stuff before ancient Egypt, 3729 01:05:22,559 --> 01:05:24,470 there was stuff before ancient Egypt, which he presents as his own idea, even 3730 01:05:24,470 --> 01:05:24,480 which he presents as his own idea, even 3731 01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:26,230 which he presents as his own idea, even though it's common knowledge that there 3732 01:05:26,230 --> 01:05:26,240 though it's common knowledge that there 3733 01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:28,150 though it's common knowledge that there definitely was and we know a lot about 3734 01:05:28,150 --> 01:05:28,160 definitely was and we know a lot about 3735 01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:29,990 definitely was and we know a lot about it. And then we jump all the way to what 3736 01:05:29,990 --> 01:05:30,000 it. And then we jump all the way to what 3737 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:32,390 it. And then we jump all the way to what if crazy super advanced 12,000-year-old 3738 01:05:32,390 --> 01:05:32,400 if crazy super advanced 12,000-year-old 3739 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:34,789 if crazy super advanced 12,000-year-old something or other every time. Let's see 3740 01:05:34,789 --> 01:05:34,799 something or other every time. Let's see 3741 01:05:34,799 --> 01:05:36,309 something or other every time. Let's see how well he can do a Grahamcock 3742 01:05:36,309 --> 01:05:36,319 how well he can do a Grahamcock 3743 01:05:36,319 --> 01:05:37,670 how well he can do a Grahamcock impression. Here's something that's 3744 01:05:37,670 --> 01:05:37,680 impression. Here's something that's 3745 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,270 impression. Here's something that's rarely [music] discussed. The ancient 3746 01:05:39,270 --> 01:05:39,280 rarely [music] discussed. The ancient 3747 01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:41,510 rarely [music] discussed. The ancient Egyptians often spoke of a mysterious 3748 01:05:41,510 --> 01:05:41,520 Egyptians often spoke of a mysterious 3749 01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:43,589 Egyptians often spoke of a mysterious place they called the land of the west. 3750 01:05:43,589 --> 01:05:43,599 place they called the land of the west. 3751 01:05:43,599 --> 01:05:45,430 place they called the land of the west. It was associated with the afterlife, 3752 01:05:45,430 --> 01:05:45,440 It was associated with the afterlife, 3753 01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:47,670 It was associated with the afterlife, but also curiously described in some 3754 01:05:47,670 --> 01:05:47,680 but also curiously described in some 3755 01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:50,230 but also curiously described in some texts as a fertile, abundant land. In 3756 01:05:50,230 --> 01:05:50,240 texts as a fertile, abundant land. In 3757 01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:52,230 texts as a fertile, abundant land. In the book of the dead, this paradise is 3758 01:05:52,230 --> 01:05:52,240 the book of the dead, this paradise is 3759 01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:54,230 the book of the dead, this paradise is called the field of reeds, a place of 3760 01:05:54,230 --> 01:05:54,240 called the field of reeds, a place of 3761 01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:56,549 called the field of reeds, a place of lush crops, flowing waters, and endless 3762 01:05:56,549 --> 01:05:56,559 lush crops, flowing waters, and endless 3763 01:05:56,559 --> 01:05:58,630 lush crops, flowing waters, and endless peace. Mainstream scholars usually 3764 01:05:58,630 --> 01:05:58,640 peace. Mainstream scholars usually 3765 01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:00,630 peace. Mainstream scholars usually interpret this as symbolic, a mythic 3766 01:06:00,630 --> 01:06:00,640 interpret this as symbolic, a mythic 3767 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:02,630 interpret this as symbolic, a mythic heaven. But what if it wasn't entirely 3768 01:06:02,630 --> 01:06:02,640 heaven. But what if it wasn't entirely 3769 01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:04,710 heaven. But what if it wasn't entirely metaphorical? What if these visions of 3770 01:06:04,710 --> 01:06:04,720 metaphorical? What if these visions of 3771 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:06,789 metaphorical? What if these visions of green fields in the west were cultural 3772 01:06:06,789 --> 01:06:06,799 green fields in the west were cultural 3773 01:06:06,799 --> 01:06:08,870 green fields in the west were cultural memories? Echoes of a time when the 3774 01:06:08,870 --> 01:06:08,880 memories? Echoes of a time when the 3775 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,510 memories? Echoes of a time when the Sahara itself was a fertile, thriving 3776 01:06:11,510 --> 01:06:11,520 Sahara itself was a fertile, thriving 3777 01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:13,670 Sahara itself was a fertile, thriving landscape. And the Egyptians weren't 3778 01:06:13,670 --> 01:06:13,680 landscape. And the Egyptians weren't 3779 01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:15,990 landscape. And the Egyptians weren't alone. Centuries later, classical 3780 01:06:15,990 --> 01:06:16,000 alone. Centuries later, classical 3781 01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:18,150 alone. Centuries later, classical authors like Tommy in his geographica 3782 01:06:18,150 --> 01:06:18,160 authors like Tommy in his geographica 3783 01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:20,150 authors like Tommy in his geographica described lakes, rivers, and settlements 3784 01:06:20,150 --> 01:06:20,160 described lakes, rivers, and settlements 3785 01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:22,630 described lakes, rivers, and settlements far to the south and west of Egypt, deep 3786 01:06:22,630 --> 01:06:22,640 far to the south and west of Egypt, deep 3787 01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:24,710 far to the south and west of Egypt, deep in what's now the Sahara Desert. 3788 01:06:24,710 --> 01:06:24,720 in what's now the Sahara Desert. 3789 01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:26,390 in what's now the Sahara Desert. Strangely, some of the features he 3790 01:06:26,390 --> 01:06:26,400 Strangely, some of the features he 3791 01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:28,630 Strangely, some of the features he recorded line up perfectly with ancient 3792 01:06:28,630 --> 01:06:28,640 recorded line up perfectly with ancient 3793 01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:30,789 recorded line up perfectly with ancient river systems and paleo lakes we've only 3794 01:06:30,789 --> 01:06:30,799 river systems and paleo lakes we've only 3795 01:06:30,799 --> 01:06:32,710 river systems and paleo lakes we've only recently detected using satellite 3796 01:06:32,710 --> 01:06:32,720 recently detected using satellite 3797 01:06:32,720 --> 01:06:34,710 recently detected using satellite imagery. So, how could he have known 3798 01:06:34,710 --> 01:06:34,720 imagery. So, how could he have known 3799 01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:37,029 imagery. So, how could he have known that? Unless this was ancient knowledge, 3800 01:06:37,029 --> 01:06:37,039 that? Unless this was ancient knowledge, 3801 01:06:37,039 --> 01:06:39,510 that? Unless this was ancient knowledge, preserved and passed down long after the 3802 01:06:39,510 --> 01:06:39,520 preserved and passed down long after the 3803 01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:41,910 preserved and passed down long after the land itself was swallowed by sand. This 3804 01:06:41,910 --> 01:06:41,920 land itself was swallowed by sand. This 3805 01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:44,230 land itself was swallowed by sand. This all raises a compelling possibility. The 3806 01:06:44,230 --> 01:06:44,240 all raises a compelling possibility. The 3807 01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:46,309 all raises a compelling possibility. The Sahara wasn't just green. It was 3808 01:06:46,309 --> 01:06:46,319 Sahara wasn't just green. It was 3809 01:06:46,319 --> 01:06:48,630 Sahara wasn't just green. It was inhabited and not by scattered nomads, 3810 01:06:48,630 --> 01:06:48,640 inhabited and not by scattered nomads, 3811 01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:51,029 inhabited and not by scattered nomads, but by structured societies with trade 3812 01:06:51,029 --> 01:06:51,039 but by structured societies with trade 3813 01:06:51,039 --> 01:06:53,109 but by structured societies with trade routes, ritual centers, maybe even 3814 01:06:53,109 --> 01:06:53,119 routes, ritual centers, maybe even 3815 01:06:53,119 --> 01:06:55,589 routes, ritual centers, maybe even cities. wiped clean by a brutal and 3816 01:06:55,589 --> 01:06:55,599 cities. wiped clean by a brutal and 3817 01:06:55,599 --> 01:06:58,069 cities. wiped clean by a brutal and sudden climate collapse. It is a pretty 3818 01:06:58,069 --> 01:06:58,079 sudden climate collapse. It is a pretty 3819 01:06:58,079 --> 01:06:59,750 sudden climate collapse. It is a pretty good Grahamcock impression. I'll give 3820 01:06:59,750 --> 01:06:59,760 good Grahamcock impression. I'll give 3821 01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:01,589 good Grahamcock impression. I'll give him that. This interpretation of the 3822 01:07:01,589 --> 01:07:01,599 him that. This interpretation of the 3823 01:07:01,599 --> 01:07:03,510 him that. This interpretation of the Field of Reeds as a cultural memory of 3824 01:07:03,510 --> 01:07:03,520 Field of Reeds as a cultural memory of 3825 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,510 Field of Reeds as a cultural memory of the Green Sahara is in fact one of 3826 01:07:05,510 --> 01:07:05,520 the Green Sahara is in fact one of 3827 01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:07,109 the Green Sahara is in fact one of Graham's dumb talking points. 3828 01:07:07,109 --> 01:07:07,119 Graham's dumb talking points. 3829 01:07:07,119 --> 01:07:09,029 Graham's dumb talking points. Egyptologists interpret the field of 3830 01:07:09,029 --> 01:07:09,039 Egyptologists interpret the field of 3831 01:07:09,039 --> 01:07:11,670 Egyptologists interpret the field of reads as aerary paradise in the Egyptian 3832 01:07:11,670 --> 01:07:11,680 reads as aerary paradise in the Egyptian 3833 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:13,990 reads as aerary paradise in the Egyptian afterlife cosmology, a well doumented 3834 01:07:13,990 --> 01:07:14,000 afterlife cosmology, a well doumented 3835 01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:16,069 afterlife cosmology, a well doumented theological concept with no ambiguity 3836 01:07:16,069 --> 01:07:16,079 theological concept with no ambiguity 3837 01:07:16,079 --> 01:07:18,309 theological concept with no ambiguity about its function. His Tammy claim is 3838 01:07:18,309 --> 01:07:18,319 about its function. His Tammy claim is 3839 01:07:18,319 --> 01:07:20,950 about its function. His Tammy claim is even worse. Tommy was a 2 century CE 3840 01:07:20,950 --> 01:07:20,960 even worse. Tommy was a 2 century CE 3841 01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:23,510 even worse. Tommy was a 2 century CE geographer working in Alexandria. He 3842 01:07:23,510 --> 01:07:23,520 geographer working in Alexandria. He 3843 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:25,109 geographer working in Alexandria. He compiled geographical knowledge from 3844 01:07:25,109 --> 01:07:25,119 compiled geographical knowledge from 3845 01:07:25,119 --> 01:07:26,870 compiled geographical knowledge from Roman era trade routes, military 3846 01:07:26,870 --> 01:07:26,880 Roman era trade routes, military 3847 01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:28,870 Roman era trade routes, military surveys, merchant accounts, and even 3848 01:07:28,870 --> 01:07:28,880 surveys, merchant accounts, and even 3849 01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:30,950 surveys, merchant accounts, and even earlier Greek sources. His descriptions 3850 01:07:30,950 --> 01:07:30,960 earlier Greek sources. His descriptions 3851 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:33,029 earlier Greek sources. His descriptions of African geography contain both 3852 01:07:33,029 --> 01:07:33,039 of African geography contain both 3853 01:07:33,039 --> 01:07:34,789 of African geography contain both accurate information from these sources 3854 01:07:34,789 --> 01:07:34,799 accurate information from these sources 3855 01:07:34,799 --> 01:07:36,950 accurate information from these sources and significant errors. The fact that 3856 01:07:36,950 --> 01:07:36,960 and significant errors. The fact that 3857 01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:38,950 and significant errors. The fact that some features in his work vaguely 3858 01:07:38,950 --> 01:07:38,960 some features in his work vaguely 3859 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:40,789 some features in his work vaguely correspond to paleo river systems 3860 01:07:40,789 --> 01:07:40,799 correspond to paleo river systems 3861 01:07:40,799 --> 01:07:43,109 correspond to paleo river systems detected by satellite is not evidence of 3862 01:07:43,109 --> 01:07:43,119 detected by satellite is not evidence of 3863 01:07:43,119 --> 01:07:44,789 detected by satellite is not evidence of preserved ancient knowledge from a 3864 01:07:44,789 --> 01:07:44,799 preserved ancient knowledge from a 3865 01:07:44,799 --> 01:07:47,109 preserved ancient knowledge from a long-lost civilization. It just shows 3866 01:07:47,109 --> 01:07:47,119 long-lost civilization. It just shows 3867 01:07:47,119 --> 01:07:49,109 long-lost civilization. It just shows that Tommy drew on accounts from people 3868 01:07:49,109 --> 01:07:49,119 that Tommy drew on accounts from people 3869 01:07:49,119 --> 01:07:50,789 that Tommy drew on accounts from people who had traveled into the African 3870 01:07:50,789 --> 01:07:50,799 who had traveled into the African 3871 01:07:50,799 --> 01:07:52,950 who had traveled into the African interior and reported what they saw or 3872 01:07:52,950 --> 01:07:52,960 interior and reported what they saw or 3873 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:54,710 interior and reported what they saw or drew on earlier sources that did the 3874 01:07:54,710 --> 01:07:54,720 drew on earlier sources that did the 3875 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:56,870 drew on earlier sources that did the same. Academics who study Tomy's 3876 01:07:56,870 --> 01:07:56,880 same. Academics who study Tomy's 3877 01:07:56,880 --> 01:07:58,789 same. Academics who study Tomy's geography have spent decades 3878 01:07:58,789 --> 01:07:58,799 geography have spent decades 3879 01:07:58,799 --> 01:08:00,870 geography have spent decades reconstructing exactly which sources he 3880 01:08:00,870 --> 01:08:00,880 reconstructing exactly which sources he 3881 01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:03,029 reconstructing exactly which sources he used and where his errors come from. 3882 01:08:03,029 --> 01:08:03,039 used and where his errors come from. 3883 01:08:03,039 --> 01:08:04,549 used and where his errors come from. None of them have concluded that his 3884 01:08:04,549 --> 01:08:04,559 None of them have concluded that his 3885 01:08:04,559 --> 01:08:06,630 None of them have concluded that his African data represents the transmission 3886 01:08:06,630 --> 01:08:06,640 African data represents the transmission 3887 01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:08,230 African data represents the transmission of knowledge from a pre-dynastic 3888 01:08:08,230 --> 01:08:08,240 of knowledge from a pre-dynastic 3889 01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:10,789 of knowledge from a pre-dynastic civilization. This is just a big bowl of 3890 01:08:10,789 --> 01:08:10,799 civilization. This is just a big bowl of 3891 01:08:10,799 --> 01:08:12,870 civilization. This is just a big bowl of what if. Well, it's a powerful theory, 3892 01:08:12,870 --> 01:08:12,880 what if. Well, it's a powerful theory, 3893 01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:15,349 what if. Well, it's a powerful theory, but myth and memory aren't enough. So 3894 01:08:15,349 --> 01:08:15,359 but myth and memory aren't enough. So 3895 01:08:15,359 --> 01:08:17,510 but myth and memory aren't enough. So the question becomes, is there any solid 3896 01:08:17,510 --> 01:08:17,520 the question becomes, is there any solid 3897 01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:19,669 the question becomes, is there any solid evidence? Well, interestingly, genetic 3898 01:08:19,669 --> 01:08:19,679 evidence? Well, interestingly, genetic 3899 01:08:19,679 --> 01:08:21,590 evidence? Well, interestingly, genetic evidence has emerged that supports the 3900 01:08:21,590 --> 01:08:21,600 evidence has emerged that supports the 3901 01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:23,590 evidence has emerged that supports the idea [music] of complex interconnected 3902 01:08:23,590 --> 01:08:23,600 idea [music] of complex interconnected 3903 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:26,309 idea [music] of complex interconnected populations living in the Sahara long 3904 01:08:26,309 --> 01:08:26,319 populations living in the Sahara long 3905 01:08:26,319 --> 01:08:28,789 populations living in the Sahara long before the rise of dynastic Egypt. 3906 01:08:28,789 --> 01:08:28,799 before the rise of dynastic Egypt. 3907 01:08:28,799 --> 01:08:31,189 before the rise of dynastic Egypt. Ancient DNA from sites like tool in 3908 01:08:31,189 --> 01:08:31,199 Ancient DNA from sites like tool in 3909 01:08:31,199 --> 01:08:34,309 Ancient DNA from sites like tool in Morocco from 15,000 years ago reveals a 3910 01:08:34,309 --> 01:08:34,319 Morocco from 15,000 years ago reveals a 3911 01:08:34,319 --> 01:08:36,470 Morocco from 15,000 years ago reveals a surprising blend of subsaharan African 3912 01:08:36,470 --> 01:08:36,480 surprising blend of subsaharan African 3913 01:08:36,480 --> 01:08:38,789 surprising blend of subsaharan African and Neareastern ancestry, suggesting 3914 01:08:38,789 --> 01:08:38,799 and Neareastern ancestry, suggesting 3915 01:08:38,799 --> 01:08:40,709 and Neareastern ancestry, suggesting long-d distanceance contact across what 3916 01:08:40,709 --> 01:08:40,719 long-d distanceance contact across what 3917 01:08:40,719 --> 01:08:43,829 long-d distanceance contact across what was then a habitable Sahara. Yes, humans 3918 01:08:43,829 --> 01:08:43,839 was then a habitable Sahara. Yes, humans 3919 01:08:43,839 --> 01:08:45,990 was then a habitable Sahara. Yes, humans existed. We already knew that it doesn't 3920 01:08:45,990 --> 01:08:46,000 existed. We already knew that it doesn't 3921 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:47,669 existed. We already knew that it doesn't support your super awesome lost 3922 01:08:47,669 --> 01:08:47,679 support your super awesome lost 3923 01:08:47,679 --> 01:08:49,669 support your super awesome lost civilization claims. Got anything 3924 01:08:49,669 --> 01:08:49,679 civilization claims. Got anything 3925 01:08:49,679 --> 01:08:51,510 civilization claims. Got anything better? No. Then I guess we're moving 3926 01:08:51,510 --> 01:08:51,520 better? No. Then I guess we're moving 3927 01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:53,749 better? No. Then I guess we're moving on. But aside from all of that, one of 3928 01:08:53,749 --> 01:08:53,759 on. But aside from all of that, one of 3929 01:08:53,759 --> 01:08:55,430 on. But aside from all of that, one of the most intriguing pieces of this 3930 01:08:55,430 --> 01:08:55,440 the most intriguing pieces of this 3931 01:08:55,440 --> 01:08:57,590 the most intriguing pieces of this puzzle comes from a monument we all 3932 01:08:57,590 --> 01:08:57,600 puzzle comes from a monument we all 3933 01:08:57,600 --> 01:08:59,669 puzzle comes from a monument we all know, the great Sphinx of Giza. The 3934 01:08:59,669 --> 01:08:59,679 know, the great Sphinx of Giza. The 3935 01:08:59,679 --> 01:09:01,749 know, the great Sphinx of Giza. The Orthodox view dates the Sphinx to around 3936 01:09:01,749 --> 01:09:01,759 Orthodox view dates the Sphinx to around 3937 01:09:01,759 --> 01:09:04,470 Orthodox view dates the Sphinx to around 2500 [music] BC. Built during the reign 3938 01:09:04,470 --> 01:09:04,480 2500 [music] BC. Built during the reign 3939 01:09:04,480 --> 01:09:06,309 2500 [music] BC. Built during the reign of the Pharaoh Cafrey of the fourth 3940 01:09:06,309 --> 01:09:06,319 of the Pharaoh Cafrey of the fourth 3941 01:09:06,319 --> 01:09:08,550 of the Pharaoh Cafrey of the fourth dynasty. But here's the strange part. 3942 01:09:08,550 --> 01:09:08,560 dynasty. But here's the strange part. 3943 01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:09,829 dynasty. But here's the strange part. There are no inscriptions [music] on the 3944 01:09:09,829 --> 01:09:09,839 There are no inscriptions [music] on the 3945 01:09:09,839 --> 01:09:12,070 There are no inscriptions [music] on the Sphinx that actually link it to Cafrey. 3946 01:09:12,070 --> 01:09:12,080 Sphinx that actually link it to Cafrey. 3947 01:09:12,080 --> 01:09:14,309 Sphinx that actually link it to Cafrey. And some geologists, most notably Dr. 3948 01:09:14,309 --> 01:09:14,319 And some geologists, most notably Dr. 3949 01:09:14,319 --> 01:09:16,470 And some geologists, most notably Dr. Robert Shock, argue that the erosion 3950 01:09:16,470 --> 01:09:16,480 Robert Shock, argue that the erosion 3951 01:09:16,480 --> 01:09:18,550 Robert Shock, argue that the erosion patterns on the Sphinx and its enclosure 3952 01:09:18,550 --> 01:09:18,560 patterns on the Sphinx and its enclosure 3953 01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:20,470 patterns on the Sphinx and its enclosure don't match the dry wind blasted 3954 01:09:20,470 --> 01:09:20,480 don't match the dry wind blasted 3955 01:09:20,480 --> 01:09:22,149 don't match the dry wind blasted conditions of the last few thousand 3956 01:09:22,149 --> 01:09:22,159 conditions of the last few thousand 3957 01:09:22,159 --> 01:09:23,829 conditions of the last few thousand years. [music] Instead, they resemble 3958 01:09:23,829 --> 01:09:23,839 years. [music] Instead, they resemble 3959 01:09:23,839 --> 01:09:25,749 years. [music] Instead, they resemble water erosion, the kind caused by 3960 01:09:25,749 --> 01:09:25,759 water erosion, the kind caused by 3961 01:09:25,759 --> 01:09:27,990 water erosion, the kind caused by sustained rainfall over long periods. 3962 01:09:27,990 --> 01:09:28,000 sustained rainfall over long periods. 3963 01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:30,390 sustained rainfall over long periods. This raises a staggering possibility. If 3964 01:09:30,390 --> 01:09:30,400 This raises a staggering possibility. If 3965 01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:32,470 This raises a staggering possibility. If that erosion was caused by rain, then 3966 01:09:32,470 --> 01:09:32,480 that erosion was caused by rain, then 3967 01:09:32,480 --> 01:09:34,470 that erosion was caused by rain, then the Sphinx must date back to the African 3968 01:09:34,470 --> 01:09:34,480 the Sphinx must date back to the African 3969 01:09:34,480 --> 01:09:36,149 the Sphinx must date back to the African humid period. [music] The last time this 3970 01:09:36,149 --> 01:09:36,159 humid period. [music] The last time this 3971 01:09:36,159 --> 01:09:38,309 humid period. [music] The last time this region experienced heavy, consistent 3972 01:09:38,309 --> 01:09:38,319 region experienced heavy, consistent 3973 01:09:38,319 --> 01:09:40,709 region experienced heavy, consistent rainfall. In other words, the Sphinx may 3974 01:09:40,709 --> 01:09:40,719 rainfall. In other words, the Sphinx may 3975 01:09:40,719 --> 01:09:42,149 rainfall. In other words, the Sphinx may have been [music] carved thousands of 3976 01:09:42,149 --> 01:09:42,159 have been [music] carved thousands of 3977 01:09:42,159 --> 01:09:43,990 have been [music] carved thousands of years earlier than we thought. Not in 3978 01:09:43,990 --> 01:09:44,000 years earlier than we thought. Not in 3979 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:45,829 years earlier than we thought. Not in the age of pyramids, but in the time 3980 01:09:45,829 --> 01:09:45,839 the age of pyramids, but in the time 3981 01:09:45,839 --> 01:09:47,990 the age of pyramids, but in the time when the Sahara was green. If that's 3982 01:09:47,990 --> 01:09:48,000 when the Sahara was green. If that's 3983 01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:50,149 when the Sahara was green. If that's true, then someone, some [music] culture 3984 01:09:50,149 --> 01:09:50,159 true, then someone, some [music] culture 3985 01:09:50,159 --> 01:09:52,309 true, then someone, some [music] culture was building megalithic monuments during 3986 01:09:52,309 --> 01:09:52,319 was building megalithic monuments during 3987 01:09:52,319 --> 01:09:54,709 was building megalithic monuments during prehistory in the heart of a thriving 3988 01:09:54,709 --> 01:09:54,719 prehistory in the heart of a thriving 3989 01:09:54,719 --> 01:09:57,030 prehistory in the heart of a thriving green Sahara. Oh, cool. A tired old 3990 01:09:57,030 --> 01:09:57,040 green Sahara. Oh, cool. A tired old 3991 01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:58,790 green Sahara. Oh, cool. A tired old Grahamcock talking point presented as 3992 01:09:58,790 --> 01:09:58,800 Grahamcock talking point presented as 3993 01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:00,870 Grahamcock talking point presented as new information. This water erosion 3994 01:10:00,870 --> 01:10:00,880 new information. This water erosion 3995 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:02,870 new information. This water erosion claim for the Sphinx was introduced by 3996 01:10:02,870 --> 01:10:02,880 claim for the Sphinx was introduced by 3997 01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:05,189 claim for the Sphinx was introduced by John Anthony West, an author with a 3998 01:10:05,189 --> 01:10:05,199 John Anthony West, an author with a 3999 01:10:05,199 --> 01:10:07,110 John Anthony West, an author with a background in esoteric studies and no 4000 01:10:07,110 --> 01:10:07,120 background in esoteric studies and no 4001 01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:09,350 background in esoteric studies and no geological training, who was explicitly 4002 01:10:09,350 --> 01:10:09,360 geological training, who was explicitly 4003 01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:11,350 geological training, who was explicitly trying to find scientific support for 4004 01:10:11,350 --> 01:10:11,360 trying to find scientific support for 4005 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:13,990 trying to find scientific support for the idea of a lost civilization. West's 4006 01:10:13,990 --> 01:10:14,000 the idea of a lost civilization. West's 4007 01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,149 the idea of a lost civilization. West's own stated goal documented in his 4008 01:10:16,149 --> 01:10:16,159 own stated goal documented in his 4009 01:10:16,159 --> 01:10:18,070 own stated goal documented in his writings was that if water erosion on 4010 01:10:18,070 --> 01:10:18,080 writings was that if water erosion on 4011 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:19,830 writings was that if water erosion on the Sphinx could be confirmed, it would 4012 01:10:19,830 --> 01:10:19,840 the Sphinx could be confirmed, it would 4013 01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:21,990 the Sphinx could be confirmed, it would overthrow all accepted chronologies of 4014 01:10:21,990 --> 01:10:22,000 overthrow all accepted chronologies of 4015 01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:24,310 overthrow all accepted chronologies of civilization. He recruited Robert Shock 4016 01:10:24,310 --> 01:10:24,320 civilization. He recruited Robert Shock 4017 01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:26,229 civilization. He recruited Robert Shock to provide the geological framing. The 4018 01:10:26,229 --> 01:10:26,239 to provide the geological framing. The 4019 01:10:26,239 --> 01:10:28,229 to provide the geological framing. The conclusion preceded the investigation. 4020 01:10:28,229 --> 01:10:28,239 conclusion preceded the investigation. 4021 01:10:28,239 --> 01:10:30,149 conclusion preceded the investigation. Again, this is the central claim of 4022 01:10:30,149 --> 01:10:30,159 Again, this is the central claim of 4023 01:10:30,159 --> 01:10:31,910 Again, this is the central claim of Graham Hancock and Robert Balville's 4024 01:10:31,910 --> 01:10:31,920 Graham Hancock and Robert Balville's 4025 01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:33,750 Graham Hancock and Robert Balville's Keeper of Genesis. It appears in 4026 01:10:33,750 --> 01:10:33,760 Keeper of Genesis. It appears in 4027 01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:35,430 Keeper of Genesis. It appears in Fingerprints of the Gods, too, and 4028 01:10:35,430 --> 01:10:35,440 Fingerprints of the Gods, too, and 4029 01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:37,270 Fingerprints of the Gods, too, and obviously in several of Graham's Rogan 4030 01:10:37,270 --> 01:10:37,280 obviously in several of Graham's Rogan 4031 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:39,189 obviously in several of Graham's Rogan appearances. Button is really looking to 4032 01:10:39,189 --> 01:10:39,199 appearances. Button is really looking to 4033 01:10:39,199 --> 01:10:40,870 appearances. Button is really looking to be handed the official torch, it would 4034 01:10:40,870 --> 01:10:40,880 be handed the official torch, it would 4035 01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:43,350 be handed the official torch, it would seem. Anyway, this hypothesis is firmly 4036 01:10:43,350 --> 01:10:43,360 seem. Anyway, this hypothesis is firmly 4037 01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:44,870 seem. Anyway, this hypothesis is firmly rejected by the archaeological 4038 01:10:44,870 --> 01:10:44,880 rejected by the archaeological 4039 01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:46,550 rejected by the archaeological community.

Does Mikey go over 4084 01:11:28,470 --> 01:11:28,480 prehistoric rainfall. Does Mikey go over 4085 01:11:28,480 --> 01:11:30,709 prehistoric rainfall. Does Mikey go over any of this? Of course not. Moving on. 4086 01:11:30,709 --> 01:11:30,719 any of this? Of course not. Moving on. 4087 01:11:30,719 --> 01:11:32,470 any of this? Of course not. Moving on. But let's be clear again, this [music] 4088 01:11:32,470 --> 01:11:32,480 But let's be clear again, this [music] 4089 01:11:32,480 --> 01:11:34,390 But let's be clear again, this [music] isn't proof of a lost civilization 4090 01:11:34,390 --> 01:11:34,400 isn't proof of a lost civilization 4091 01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:36,390 isn't proof of a lost civilization beneath the Sahara. It's suggestive, 4092 01:11:36,390 --> 01:11:36,400 beneath the Sahara. It's suggestive, 4093 01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:39,030 beneath the Sahara. It's suggestive, intriguing, but not conclusive. However, 4094 01:11:39,030 --> 01:11:39,040 intriguing, but not conclusive. However, 4095 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:40,950 intriguing, but not conclusive. However, one fact is beyond [music] dispute. 4096 01:11:40,950 --> 01:11:40,960 one fact is beyond [music] dispute. 4097 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:43,030 one fact is beyond [music] dispute. We've barely scratched the surface of 4098 01:11:43,030 --> 01:11:43,040 We've barely scratched the surface of 4099 01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:46,229 We've barely scratched the surface of this vast desert. Due to its vast size, 4100 01:11:46,229 --> 01:11:46,239 this vast desert. Due to its vast size, 4101 01:11:46,239 --> 01:11:48,630 this vast desert. Due to its vast size, over 9 million [music] square kilm, only 4102 01:11:48,630 --> 01:11:48,640 over 9 million [music] square kilm, only 4103 01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:51,030 over 9 million [music] square kilm, only a tiny fraction of the Sahara Desert has 4104 01:11:51,030 --> 01:11:51,040 a tiny fraction of the Sahara Desert has 4105 01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:52,870 a tiny fraction of the Sahara Desert has been archaeologically surveyed, let 4106 01:11:52,870 --> 01:11:52,880 been archaeologically surveyed, let 4107 01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:54,870 been archaeologically surveyed, let alone [music] excavated. Some estimates 4108 01:11:54,870 --> 01:11:54,880 alone [music] excavated. Some estimates 4109 01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:57,270 alone [music] excavated. Some estimates suggest that less than 1% of the Sahara 4110 01:11:57,270 --> 01:11:57,280 suggest that less than 1% of the Sahara 4111 01:11:57,280 --> 01:11:59,430 suggest that less than 1% of the Sahara has been properly explored using modern 4112 01:11:59,430 --> 01:11:59,440 has been properly explored using modern 4113 01:11:59,440 --> 01:12:01,750 has been properly explored using modern archaeological methods. Why? Well, 4114 01:12:01,750 --> 01:12:01,760 archaeological methods. Why? Well, 4115 01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:03,750 archaeological methods. Why? Well, because it's hot, remote, politically 4116 01:12:03,750 --> 01:12:03,760 because it's hot, remote, politically 4117 01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:05,510 because it's hot, remote, politically unstable in places, and simply 4118 01:12:05,510 --> 01:12:05,520 unstable in places, and simply 4119 01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:07,430 unstable in places, and simply overwhelming in scale. But [music] under 4120 01:12:07,430 --> 01:12:07,440 overwhelming in scale. But [music] under 4121 01:12:07,440 --> 01:12:09,590 overwhelming in scale. But [music] under all that sand could lie entire chapters 4122 01:12:09,590 --> 01:12:09,600 all that sand could lie entire chapters 4123 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:12,470 all that sand could lie entire chapters of human history we've never read. If an 4124 01:12:12,470 --> 01:12:12,480 of human history we've never read. If an 4125 01:12:12,480 --> 01:12:14,070 of human history we've never read. If an advanced [music] culture did once 4126 01:12:14,070 --> 01:12:14,080 advanced [music] culture did once 4127 01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:15,830 advanced [music] culture did once existed, climate collapse could have 4128 01:12:15,830 --> 01:12:15,840 existed, climate collapse could have 4129 01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:17,590 existed, climate collapse could have buried its remains under dunes that 4130 01:12:17,590 --> 01:12:17,600 buried its remains under dunes that 4131 01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:19,669 buried its remains under dunes that stretch for hundreds of miles, stone 4132 01:12:19,669 --> 01:12:19,679 stretch for hundreds of miles, stone 4133 01:12:19,679 --> 01:12:20,950 stretch for hundreds of miles, stone structures, cities, [music] even 4134 01:12:20,950 --> 01:12:20,960 structures, cities, [music] even 4135 01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:23,510 structures, cities, [music] even inscriptions preserved but hidden. And 4136 01:12:23,510 --> 01:12:23,520 inscriptions preserved but hidden. And 4137 01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:26,149 inscriptions preserved but hidden. And until we look, we'll never know. So 4138 01:12:26,149 --> 01:12:26,159 until we look, we'll never know. So 4139 01:12:26,159 --> 01:12:28,229 until we look, we'll never know. So considering the vast area now covered by 4140 01:12:28,229 --> 01:12:28,239 considering the vast area now covered by 4141 01:12:28,239 --> 01:12:30,470 considering the vast area now covered by sand, and the fact we know this area was 4142 01:12:30,470 --> 01:12:30,480 sand, and the fact we know this area was 4143 01:12:30,480 --> 01:12:32,390 sand, and the fact we know this area was once green, lush, [music] and inhabited, 4144 01:12:32,390 --> 01:12:32,400 once green, lush, [music] and inhabited, 4145 01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:34,310 once green, lush, [music] and inhabited, isn't it at least possible that we're 4146 01:12:34,310 --> 01:12:34,320 isn't it at least possible that we're 4147 01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:35,910 isn't it at least possible that we're missing something? that perhaps an 4148 01:12:35,910 --> 01:12:35,920 missing something? that perhaps an 4149 01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:37,189 missing something? that perhaps an entire civilization [music] 4150 01:12:37,189 --> 01:12:37,199 entire civilization [music] 4151 01:12:37,199 --> 01:12:39,910 entire civilization [music] or even multiple civilizations once 4152 01:12:39,910 --> 01:12:39,920 or even multiple civilizations once 4153 01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:42,550 or even multiple civilizations once thrived here only to be erased by time 4154 01:12:42,550 --> 01:12:42,560 thrived here only to be erased by time 4155 01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:43,590 thrived here only to be erased by time and sand. [music] 4156 01:12:43,590 --> 01:12:43,600 and sand. [music] 4157 01:12:43,600 --> 01:12:45,189 and sand. [music] Anyone who watched the Flint Graham 4158 01:12:45,189 --> 01:12:45,199 Anyone who watched the Flint Graham 4159 01:12:45,199 --> 01:12:47,350 Anyone who watched the Flint Graham debate has heard this [\h__\h] before. 4160 01:12:47,350 --> 01:12:47,360 debate has heard this [\h__\h] before. 4161 01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:49,430 debate has heard this [\h__\h] before. Anything could be anywhere. Buttnut. 4162 01:12:49,430 --> 01:12:49,440 Anything could be anywhere. Buttnut. 4163 01:12:49,440 --> 01:12:51,030 Anything could be anywhere. Buttnut. Atlantis could be under my [\h__\h] 4164 01:12:51,030 --> 01:12:51,040 Atlantis could be under my [\h__\h] 4165 01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:53,270 Atlantis could be under my [\h__\h] house. But what if maybe is not how 4166 01:12:53,270 --> 01:12:53,280 house. But what if maybe is not how 4167 01:12:53,280 --> 01:12:55,510 house. But what if maybe is not how science works. And since Flint debunked 4168 01:12:55,510 --> 01:12:55,520 science works. And since Flint debunked 4169 01:12:55,520 --> 01:12:57,189 science works. And since Flint debunked this [\h__\h] attitude so well in his 4170 01:12:57,189 --> 01:12:57,199 this [\h__\h] attitude so well in his 4171 01:12:57,199 --> 01:12:58,870 this [\h__\h] attitude so well in his debate with Graham, I'll just let him 4172 01:12:58,870 --> 01:12:58,880 debate with Graham, I'll just let him 4173 01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:00,709 debate with Graham, I'll just let him respond to this exact same argument yet 4174 01:13:00,709 --> 01:13:00,719 respond to this exact same argument yet 4175 01:13:00,719 --> 01:13:02,790 respond to this exact same argument yet again. What I mean is that due to remote 4176 01:13:02,790 --> 01:13:02,800 again. What I mean is that due to remote 4177 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:04,790 again. What I mean is that due to remote sensing, due to surface survey, and due 4178 01:13:04,790 --> 01:13:04,800 sensing, due to surface survey, and due 4179 01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:06,709 sensing, due to surface survey, and due to archaeological excavation, we 4180 01:13:06,709 --> 01:13:06,719 to archaeological excavation, we 4181 01:13:06,719 --> 01:13:09,110 to archaeological excavation, we actually have reasonable coverage across 4182 01:13:09,110 --> 01:13:09,120 actually have reasonable coverage across 4183 01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:11,430 actually have reasonable coverage across the Sahara. We understand that during 4184 01:13:11,430 --> 01:13:11,440 the Sahara. We understand that during 4185 01:13:11,440 --> 01:13:13,590 the Sahara. We understand that during green periods in the Neolithic, we can 4186 01:13:13,590 --> 01:13:13,600 green periods in the Neolithic, we can 4187 01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:16,149 green periods in the Neolithic, we can see agricultural villages. And before 4188 01:13:16,149 --> 01:13:16,159 see agricultural villages. And before 4189 01:13:16,159 --> 01:13:18,070 see agricultural villages. And before the Neolithic, we can find ephemeral 4190 01:13:18,070 --> 01:13:18,080 the Neolithic, we can find ephemeral 4191 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:19,910 the Neolithic, we can find ephemeral huntergatherer camps where they were 4192 01:13:19,910 --> 01:13:19,920 huntergatherer camps where they were 4193 01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:21,830 huntergatherer camps where they were napping stones. That's right. 4194 01:13:21,830 --> 01:13:21,840 napping stones. That's right. 4195 01:13:21,840 --> 01:13:24,149 napping stones. That's right. Archaeological survey does not require 4196 01:13:24,149 --> 01:13:24,159 Archaeological survey does not require 4197 01:13:24,159 --> 01:13:26,470 Archaeological survey does not require excavating every square kilometer. 4198 01:13:26,470 --> 01:13:26,480 excavating every square kilometer. 4199 01:13:26,480 --> 01:13:28,870 excavating every square kilometer. Remote sensing, surface analysis, and 4200 01:13:28,870 --> 01:13:28,880 Remote sensing, surface analysis, and 4201 01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:30,870 Remote sensing, surface analysis, and satellite radar imaging give us 4202 01:13:30,870 --> 01:13:30,880 satellite radar imaging give us 4203 01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:32,790 satellite radar imaging give us substantial coverage of the Sahara 4204 01:13:32,790 --> 01:13:32,800 substantial coverage of the Sahara 4205 01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:34,790 substantial coverage of the Sahara without putting a trowel in the ground. 4206 01:13:34,790 --> 01:13:34,800 without putting a trowel in the ground. 4207 01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:36,709 without putting a trowel in the ground. Ancient river channels invisible to the 4208 01:13:36,709 --> 01:13:36,719 Ancient river channels invisible to the 4209 01:13:36,719 --> 01:13:39,189 Ancient river channels invisible to the naked eye have been mapped from space. 4210 01:13:39,189 --> 01:13:39,199 naked eye have been mapped from space. 4211 01:13:39,199 --> 01:13:41,510 naked eye have been mapped from space. Paleoclimate data from lake sediments as 4212 01:13:41,510 --> 01:13:41,520 Paleoclimate data from lake sediments as 4213 01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:43,669 Paleoclimate data from lake sediments as well as pollen cores document what was 4214 01:13:43,669 --> 01:13:43,679 well as pollen cores document what was 4215 01:13:43,679 --> 01:13:45,750 well as pollen cores document what was living where and when across the entire 4216 01:13:45,750 --> 01:13:45,760 living where and when across the entire 4217 01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:47,990 living where and when across the entire region. We have ancient DNA from human 4218 01:13:47,990 --> 01:13:48,000 region. We have ancient DNA from human 4219 01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:49,750 region. We have ancient DNA from human populations across the humid period of 4220 01:13:49,750 --> 01:13:49,760 populations across the humid period of 4221 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:52,070 populations across the humid period of the Sahara. As he mentioned, we have 4222 01:13:52,070 --> 01:13:52,080 the Sahara. As he mentioned, we have 4223 01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:54,630 the Sahara. As he mentioned, we have thousands of recorded sites. All of it, 4224 01:13:54,630 --> 01:13:54,640 thousands of recorded sites. All of it, 4225 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:56,950 thousands of recorded sites. All of it, every line of evidence paints the same 4226 01:13:56,950 --> 01:13:56,960 every line of evidence paints the same 4227 01:13:56,960 --> 01:13:59,350 every line of evidence paints the same picture. Hunter gatherer camps, 4228 01:13:59,350 --> 01:13:59,360 picture. Hunter gatherer camps, 4229 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:01,910 picture. Hunter gatherer camps, Neolithic pastoralists, and the early 4230 01:14:01,910 --> 01:14:01,920 Neolithic pastoralists, and the early 4231 01:14:01,920 --> 01:14:04,470 Neolithic pastoralists, and the early stages of agricultural societies. So, as 4232 01:14:04,470 --> 01:14:04,480 stages of agricultural societies. So, as 4233 01:14:04,480 --> 01:14:06,390 stages of agricultural societies. So, as bad as, "But have you looked literally 4234 01:14:06,390 --> 01:14:06,400 bad as, "But have you looked literally 4235 01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:08,310 bad as, "But have you looked literally everywhere though sounds when you really 4236 01:14:08,310 --> 01:14:08,320 everywhere though sounds when you really 4237 01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:10,310 everywhere though sounds when you really think about it, the reality is much 4238 01:14:10,310 --> 01:14:10,320 think about it, the reality is much 4239 01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:12,709 think about it, the reality is much worse. The evidence specifically 4240 01:14:12,709 --> 01:14:12,719 worse. The evidence specifically 4241 01:14:12,719 --> 01:14:15,270 worse. The evidence specifically contradicts the claim." Again, Graham 4242 01:14:15,270 --> 01:14:15,280 contradicts the claim." Again, Graham 4243 01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:17,430 contradicts the claim." Again, Graham famously admitted in that debate that 4244 01:14:17,430 --> 01:14:17,440 famously admitted in that debate that 4245 01:14:17,440 --> 01:14:19,030 famously admitted in that debate that there is no evidence for his advanced 4246 01:14:19,030 --> 01:14:19,040 there is no evidence for his advanced 4247 01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:21,430 there is no evidence for his advanced ice age civilization. None. And 4248 01:14:21,430 --> 01:14:21,440 ice age civilization. None. And 4249 01:14:21,440 --> 01:14:23,510 ice age civilization. None. And predictably, his justification was that 4250 01:14:23,510 --> 01:14:23,520 predictably, his justification was that 4251 01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:25,350 predictably, his justification was that we haven't looked everywhere yet. Just 4252 01:14:25,350 --> 01:14:25,360 we haven't looked everywhere yet. Just 4253 01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:27,750 we haven't looked everywhere yet. Just like Button, it is the unfalsifiable 4254 01:14:27,750 --> 01:14:27,760 like Button, it is the unfalsifiable 4255 01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:29,030 like Button, it is the unfalsifiable core that all of these 4256 01:14:29,030 --> 01:14:29,040 core that all of these 4257 01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:31,270 core that all of these pseudoarchchaeology grifters use, which 4258 01:14:31,270 --> 01:14:31,280 pseudoarchchaeology grifters use, which 4259 01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:33,510 pseudoarchchaeology grifters use, which makes it objectively pseudocience. 4260 01:14:33,510 --> 01:14:33,520 makes it objectively pseudocience. 4261 01:14:33,520 --> 01:14:35,350 makes it objectively pseudocience. Whatever the evidence shows, the proof 4262 01:14:35,350 --> 01:14:35,360 Whatever the evidence shows, the proof 4263 01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:36,870 Whatever the evidence shows, the proof is always in the place we haven't 4264 01:14:36,870 --> 01:14:36,880 is always in the place we haven't 4265 01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:38,709 is always in the place we haven't searched yet. Even if what we know 4266 01:14:38,709 --> 01:14:38,719 searched yet. Even if what we know 4267 01:14:38,719 --> 01:14:40,630 searched yet. Even if what we know specifically contradicts their claims, 4268 01:14:40,630 --> 01:14:40,640 specifically contradicts their claims, 4269 01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:42,470 specifically contradicts their claims, and they just ignore that inconvenient 4270 01:14:42,470 --> 01:14:42,480 and they just ignore that inconvenient 4271 01:14:42,480 --> 01:14:45,430 and they just ignore that inconvenient fact. This video is Buttons grift in its 4272 01:14:45,430 --> 01:14:45,440 fact. This video is Buttons grift in its 4273 01:14:45,440 --> 01:14:47,830 fact. This video is Buttons grift in its purest form. He describes the African 4274 01:14:47,830 --> 01:14:47,840 purest form. He describes the African 4275 01:14:47,840 --> 01:14:49,990 purest form. He describes the African humid period accurately. He describes 4276 01:14:49,990 --> 01:14:50,000 humid period accurately. He describes 4277 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,070 humid period accurately. He describes the desertification accurately.

So I can't 4522 01:18:52,870 --> 01:18:52,880 >> No. No. Homo sapiens. So I can't 4523 01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:54,229 >> No. No. Homo sapiens. So I can't remember this. It's called like the Jeb 4524 01:18:54,229 --> 01:18:54,239 remember this. It's called like the Jeb 4525 01:18:54,239 --> 01:18:55,830 remember this. It's called like the Jeb Belud 4526 01:18:55,830 --> 01:18:55,840 Belud 4527 01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:57,430 Belud site or something like that. But they 4528 01:18:57,430 --> 01:18:57,440 site or something like that. But they 4529 01:18:57,440 --> 01:18:59,590 site or something like that. But they were modern homo sapien remains. They 4530 01:18:59,590 --> 01:18:59,600 were modern homo sapien remains. They 4531 01:18:59,600 --> 01:19:00,950 were modern homo sapien remains. They thought they were Neanderthal initially 4532 01:19:00,950 --> 01:19:00,960 thought they were Neanderthal initially 4533 01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:02,149 thought they were Neanderthal initially cuz they were so old. 4534 01:19:02,149 --> 01:19:02,159 cuz they were so old. 4535 01:19:02,159 --> 01:19:03,110 cuz they were so old. >> How old were they? 4536 01:19:03,110 --> 01:19:03,120 >> How old were they? 4537 01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:05,110 >> How old were they? >> They're 315,000 4538 01:19:05,110 --> 01:19:05,120 >> They're 315,000 4539 01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:06,950 >> They're 315,000 years old. Uh that's kind of like the 4540 01:19:06,950 --> 01:19:06,960 years old. Uh that's kind of like the 4541 01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:08,630 years old. Uh that's kind of like the estimate. It goes up to potentially 4542 01:19:08,630 --> 01:19:08,640 estimate. It goes up to potentially 4543 01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:10,870 estimate. It goes up to potentially 360,000 years old. So they're super old. 4544 01:19:10,870 --> 01:19:10,880 360,000 years old. So they're super old. 4545 01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:11,990 360,000 years old. So they're super old. And 4546 01:19:11,990 --> 01:19:12,000 And 4547 01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:13,030 And >> yeah, they thought they were initially 4548 01:19:13,030 --> 01:19:13,040 >> yeah, they thought they were initially 4549 01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:14,229 >> yeah, they thought they were initially Neanderthals because of this age, but 4550 01:19:14,229 --> 01:19:14,239 Neanderthals because of this age, but 4551 01:19:14,239 --> 01:19:15,910 Neanderthals because of this age, but then they discovered a few more and they 4552 01:19:15,910 --> 01:19:15,920 then they discovered a few more and they 4553 01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:17,590 then they discovered a few more and they were they classified them as homo 4554 01:19:17,590 --> 01:19:17,600 were they classified them as homo 4555 01:19:17,600 --> 01:19:19,270 were they classified them as homo sapien. And when I saw that, I was like, 4556 01:19:19,270 --> 01:19:19,280 sapien. And when I saw that, I was like, 4557 01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:20,470 sapien. And when I saw that, I was like, how is this not kicking up more of a 4558 01:19:20,470 --> 01:19:20,480 how is this not kicking up more of a 4559 01:19:20,480 --> 01:19:22,229 how is this not kicking up more of a fuss? Because before them, the oldest 4560 01:19:22,229 --> 01:19:22,239 fuss? Because before them, the oldest 4561 01:19:22,239 --> 01:19:24,550 fuss? Because before them, the oldest homo sapien remains we had were around 4562 01:19:24,550 --> 01:19:24,560 homo sapien remains we had were around 4563 01:19:24,560 --> 01:19:26,149 homo sapien remains we had were around 200,000 years old. And that had been the 4564 01:19:26,149 --> 01:19:26,159 200,000 years old. And that had been the 4565 01:19:26,159 --> 01:19:27,669 200,000 years old. And that had been the case for like a decade or something. And 4566 01:19:27,669 --> 01:19:27,679 case for like a decade or something. And 4567 01:19:27,679 --> 01:19:29,350 case for like a decade or something. And before that, it was like a 100,000 years 4568 01:19:29,350 --> 01:19:29,360 before that, it was like a 100,000 years 4569 01:19:29,360 --> 01:19:31,669 before that, it was like a 100,000 years old. So this discovery pushed back the 4570 01:19:31,669 --> 01:19:31,679 old. So this discovery pushed back the 4571 01:19:31,679 --> 01:19:33,830 old. So this discovery pushed back the age of our species by another third, 4572 01:19:33,830 --> 01:19:33,840 age of our species by another third, 4573 01:19:33,840 --> 01:19:36,149 age of our species by another third, like a 100,000 years. So I saw that and 4574 01:19:36,149 --> 01:19:36,159 like a 100,000 years. So I saw that and 4575 01:19:36,159 --> 01:19:37,910 like a 100,000 years. So I saw that and I was thinking like how are we still 4576 01:19:37,910 --> 01:19:37,920 I was thinking like how are we still 4577 01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:39,750 I was thinking like how are we still basing our kind of idea of history 4578 01:19:39,750 --> 01:19:39,760 basing our kind of idea of history 4579 01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:41,750 basing our kind of idea of history around the fact that nothing happened 4580 01:19:41,750 --> 01:19:41,760 around the fact that nothing happened 4581 01:19:41,760 --> 01:19:44,950 around the fact that nothing happened for you know 310,000 years and then 4582 01:19:44,950 --> 01:19:44,960 for you know 310,000 years and then 4583 01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:47,430 for you know 310,000 years and then everything happened in like the last you 4584 01:19:47,430 --> 01:19:47,440 everything happened in like the last you 4585 01:19:47,440 --> 01:19:49,990 everything happened in like the last you know 10,000 years. Yes. What a perfect 4586 01:19:49,990 --> 01:19:50,000 know 10,000 years. Yes. What a perfect 4587 01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:52,470 know 10,000 years. Yes. What a perfect example of biological anthropologists 4588 01:19:52,470 --> 01:19:52,480 example of biological anthropologists 4589 01:19:52,480 --> 01:19:55,030 example of biological anthropologists revising timelines based on new data. 4590 01:19:55,030 --> 01:19:55,040 revising timelines based on new data. 4591 01:19:55,040 --> 01:19:57,110 revising timelines based on new data. The precise thing you pretend doesn't 4592 01:19:57,110 --> 01:19:57,120 The precise thing you pretend doesn't 4593 01:19:57,120 --> 01:19:59,430 The precise thing you pretend doesn't happen literally ever, right Mikey? And 4594 01:19:59,430 --> 01:19:59,440 happen literally ever, right Mikey? And 4595 01:19:59,440 --> 01:20:01,030 happen literally ever, right Mikey? And of course you're just lying half the 4596 01:20:01,030 --> 01:20:01,040 of course you're just lying half the 4597 01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:03,270 of course you're just lying half the time anyway. The Jabel Orhood remains 4598 01:20:03,270 --> 01:20:03,280 time anyway. The Jabel Orhood remains 4599 01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:05,430 time anyway. The Jabel Orhood remains were not classified as Neanderl because 4600 01:20:05,430 --> 01:20:05,440 were not classified as Neanderl because 4601 01:20:05,440 --> 01:20:07,669 were not classified as Neanderl because they were so old. Originally, the site 4602 01:20:07,669 --> 01:20:07,679 they were so old. Originally, the site 4603 01:20:07,679 --> 01:20:09,590 they were so old. Originally, the site was thought to be around 40,000 years 4604 01:20:09,590 --> 01:20:09,600 was thought to be around 40,000 years 4605 01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:11,910 was thought to be around 40,000 years old, roughly around when Neanderls went 4606 01:20:11,910 --> 01:20:11,920 old, roughly around when Neanderls went 4607 01:20:11,920 --> 01:20:14,149 old, roughly around when Neanderls went extinct. When the dating was revised to 4608 01:20:14,149 --> 01:20:14,159 extinct. When the dating was revised to 4609 01:20:14,159 --> 01:20:16,950 extinct. When the dating was revised to 315,000 years in 2017, they were 4610 01:20:16,950 --> 01:20:16,960 315,000 years in 2017, they were 4611 01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:19,270 315,000 years in 2017, they were reclassified as early homo sapiens. So, 4612 01:20:19,270 --> 01:20:19,280 reclassified as early homo sapiens. So, 4613 01:20:19,280 --> 01:20:21,110 reclassified as early homo sapiens. So, they were classified as Neanderl when 4614 01:20:21,110 --> 01:20:21,120 they were classified as Neanderl when 4615 01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:22,550 they were classified as Neanderl when they were thought to be young and then 4616 01:20:22,550 --> 01:20:22,560 they were thought to be young and then 4617 01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:24,310 they were thought to be young and then they were reclassified when they turned 4618 01:20:24,310 --> 01:20:24,320 they were reclassified when they turned 4619 01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:26,470 they were reclassified when they turned out to be old. You have the causation 4620 01:20:26,470 --> 01:20:26,480 out to be old. You have the causation 4621 01:20:26,480 --> 01:20:29,430 out to be old. You have the causation completely backwards. Then he asks, "How 4622 01:20:29,430 --> 01:20:29,440 completely backwards. Then he asks, "How 4623 01:20:29,440 --> 01:20:31,750 completely backwards. Then he asks, "How is this not kicking up more of a fuss? 4624 01:20:31,750 --> 01:20:31,760 is this not kicking up more of a fuss? 4625 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:33,830 is this not kicking up more of a fuss? Are you [\h__\h] me? It was published in 4626 01:20:33,830 --> 01:20:33,840 Are you [\h__\h] me? It was published in 4627 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:36,229 Are you [\h__\h] me? It was published in Nature." Then Nature ran a news article 4628 01:20:36,229 --> 01:20:36,239 Nature." Then Nature ran a news article 4629 01:20:36,239 --> 01:20:38,149 Nature." Then Nature ran a news article calling it a rewrite of our species's 4630 01:20:38,149 --> 01:20:38,159 calling it a rewrite of our species's 4631 01:20:38,159 --> 01:20:40,390 calling it a rewrite of our species's history. The Maxplank Institute issued 4632 01:20:40,390 --> 01:20:40,400 history. The Maxplank Institute issued 4633 01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:43,189 history. The Maxplank Institute issued press releases. BBC covered it. NPR 4634 01:20:43,189 --> 01:20:43,199 press releases. BBC covered it. NPR 4635 01:20:43,199 --> 01:20:45,910 press releases. BBC covered it. NPR covered it. It was global news. It was a 4636 01:20:45,910 --> 01:20:45,920 covered it. It was global news. It was a 4637 01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:48,310 covered it. It was global news. It was a pretty [\h__\h] big fuss. But most 4638 01:20:48,310 --> 01:20:48,320 pretty [\h__\h] big fuss. But most 4639 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:50,550 pretty [\h__\h] big fuss. But most importantly, all of this has absolutely 4640 01:20:50,550 --> 01:20:50,560 importantly, all of this has absolutely 4641 01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:52,709 importantly, all of this has absolutely nothing to do with advanced ancient 4642 01:20:52,709 --> 01:20:52,719 nothing to do with advanced ancient 4643 01:20:52,719 --> 01:20:54,470 nothing to do with advanced ancient civilizations that definitely didn't 4644 01:20:54,470 --> 01:20:54,480 civilizations that definitely didn't 4645 01:20:54,480 --> 01:20:56,870 civilizations that definitely didn't exist. Just because homo sapiens evolved 4646 01:20:56,870 --> 01:20:56,880 exist. Just because homo sapiens evolved 4647 01:20:56,880 --> 01:20:58,870 exist. Just because homo sapiens evolved earlier than previously suggested, it 4648 01:20:58,870 --> 01:20:58,880 earlier than previously suggested, it 4649 01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:00,709 earlier than previously suggested, it doesn't make your dumb stories true. And 4650 01:21:00,709 --> 01:21:00,719 doesn't make your dumb stories true. And 4651 01:21:00,719 --> 01:21:02,870 doesn't make your dumb stories true. And it doesn't mean nothing happened. [\h__\h] 4652 01:21:02,870 --> 01:21:02,880 it doesn't mean nothing happened. [\h__\h] 4653 01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:04,630 it doesn't mean nothing happened. [\h__\h] was happening. There just wasn't any 4654 01:21:04,630 --> 01:21:04,640 was happening. There just wasn't any 4655 01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:06,470 was happening. There just wasn't any Atlantis or any crap like that. 4656 01:21:06,470 --> 01:21:06,480 Atlantis or any crap like that. 4657 01:21:06,480 --> 01:21:07,990 Atlantis or any crap like that. Mainstream, for one of a better word. I 4658 01:21:07,990 --> 01:21:08,000 Mainstream, for one of a better word. I 4659 01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:09,030 Mainstream, for one of a better word. I don't really like using that because I 4660 01:21:09,030 --> 01:21:09,040 don't really like using that because I 4661 01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:10,550 don't really like using that because I don't think there's such thing as a a 4662 01:21:10,550 --> 01:21:10,560 don't think there's such thing as a a 4663 01:21:10,560 --> 01:21:11,750 don't think there's such thing as a a mainstream. It's not like there's a 4664 01:21:11,750 --> 01:21:11,760 mainstream. It's not like there's a 4665 01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:13,030 mainstream. It's not like there's a group of people that all collectively 4666 01:21:13,030 --> 01:21:13,040 group of people that all collectively 4667 01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:16,070 group of people that all collectively decide. But some particularly vocal 4668 01:21:16,070 --> 01:21:16,080 decide. But some particularly vocal 4669 01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:17,910 decide. But some particularly vocal mainstream kind of historians and 4670 01:21:17,910 --> 01:21:17,920 mainstream kind of historians and 4671 01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:20,390 mainstream kind of historians and scientists seem to claim to know 4672 01:21:20,390 --> 01:21:20,400 scientists seem to claim to know 4673 01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:21,910 scientists seem to claim to know absolute truth about the past. And 4674 01:21:21,910 --> 01:21:21,920 absolute truth about the past. And 4675 01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:23,590 absolute truth about the past. And that's just stupid. like how can anyone 4676 01:21:23,590 --> 01:21:23,600 that's just stupid. like how can anyone 4677 01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:25,669 that's just stupid. like how can anyone know about what happened 100,000 years 4678 01:21:25,669 --> 01:21:25,679 know about what happened 100,000 years 4679 01:21:25,679 --> 01:21:28,149 know about what happened 100,000 years ago or 200,000 years ago? And it kind of 4680 01:21:28,149 --> 01:21:28,159 ago or 200,000 years ago? And it kind of 4681 01:21:28,159 --> 01:21:30,149 ago or 200,000 years ago? And it kind of gets gets me a little bit riled up 4682 01:21:30,149 --> 01:21:30,159 gets gets me a little bit riled up 4683 01:21:30,159 --> 01:21:31,590 gets gets me a little bit riled up because at the end of the day, none of 4684 01:21:31,590 --> 01:21:31,600 because at the end of the day, none of 4685 01:21:31,600 --> 01:21:33,110 because at the end of the day, none of us know what happened back then. So I 4686 01:21:33,110 --> 01:21:33,120 us know what happened back then. So I 4687 01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:35,669 us know what happened back then. So I think a lot more possibilities are, you 4688 01:21:35,669 --> 01:21:35,679 think a lot more possibilities are, you 4689 01:21:35,679 --> 01:21:38,310 think a lot more possibilities are, you know, possible than than what many 4690 01:21:38,310 --> 01:21:38,320 know, possible than than what many 4691 01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:39,590 know, possible than than what many people appreciate. 4692 01:21:39,590 --> 01:21:39,600 people appreciate. 4693 01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:41,669 people appreciate. >> No, we know what we know based on the 4694 01:21:41,669 --> 01:21:41,679 >> No, we know what we know based on the 4695 01:21:41,679 --> 01:21:43,910 >> No, we know what we know based on the evidence that we have. If you uncover 4696 01:21:43,910 --> 01:21:43,920 evidence that we have. If you uncover 4697 01:21:43,920 --> 01:21:46,070 evidence that we have. If you uncover new evidence, you can revise what we 4698 01:21:46,070 --> 01:21:46,080 new evidence, you can revise what we 4699 01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:48,229 new evidence, you can revise what we know. That's how literally all science 4700 01:21:48,229 --> 01:21:48,239 know. That's how literally all science 4701 01:21:48,239 --> 01:21:50,870 know. That's how literally all science works, you [\h__\h] dong. Nobody claims 4702 01:21:50,870 --> 01:21:50,880 works, you [\h__\h] dong. Nobody claims 4703 01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:53,270 works, you [\h__\h] dong. Nobody claims absolute truth. You just want gullible 4704 01:21:53,270 --> 01:21:53,280 absolute truth.

Romano, curator of the Egyptian collection at the 4788 01:23:33,590 --> 01:23:33,600 of the Egyptian collection at the 4789 01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:35,669 of the Egyptian collection at the Brooklyn Museum, makes a complete fool 4790 01:23:35,669 --> 01:23:35,679 Brooklyn Museum, makes a complete fool 4791 01:23:35,679 --> 01:23:38,149 Brooklyn Museum, makes a complete fool out of Western shock by asking one very 4792 01:23:38,149 --> 01:23:38,159 out of Western shock by asking one very 4793 01:23:38,159 --> 01:23:40,070 out of Western shock by asking one very simple question. If there was a 4794 01:23:40,070 --> 01:23:40,080 simple question. If there was a 4795 01:23:40,080 --> 01:23:42,629 simple question. If there was a sophisticated civilization thousands of 4796 01:23:42,629 --> 01:23:42,639 sophisticated civilization thousands of 4797 01:23:42,639 --> 01:23:45,430 sophisticated civilization thousands of years before dynastic Egypt, where is 4798 01:23:45,430 --> 01:23:45,440 years before dynastic Egypt, where is 4799 01:23:45,440 --> 01:23:47,510 years before dynastic Egypt, where is the [\h__\h] evidence? Where are the 4800 01:23:47,510 --> 01:23:47,520 the [\h__\h] evidence? Where are the 4801 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:49,750 the [\h__\h] evidence? Where are the tools, the settlements, and the material 4802 01:23:49,750 --> 01:23:49,760 tools, the settlements, and the material 4803 01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,070 tools, the settlements, and the material remains of that civilization? You would 4804 01:23:52,070 --> 01:23:52,080 remains of that civilization? You would 4805 01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:53,990 remains of that civilization? You would need a sophisticated pre-doluvian 4806 01:23:53,990 --> 01:23:54,000 need a sophisticated pre-doluvian 4807 01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:55,750 need a sophisticated pre-doluvian culture, building monuments with 4808 01:23:55,750 --> 01:23:55,760 culture, building monuments with 4809 01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:57,990 culture, building monuments with characteristic Egyptian iconography and 4810 01:23:57,990 --> 01:23:58,000 characteristic Egyptian iconography and 4811 01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:01,110 characteristic Egyptian iconography and leaving absolutely nothing else behind. 4812 01:24:01,110 --> 01:24:01,120 leaving absolutely nothing else behind. 4813 01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:03,510 leaving absolutely nothing else behind. As Dr. Romano puts it, that sounds like 4814 01:24:03,510 --> 01:24:03,520 As Dr. Romano puts it, that sounds like 4815 01:24:03,520 --> 01:24:05,750 As Dr. Romano puts it, that sounds like a Star Trek episode. It's the same 4816 01:24:05,750 --> 01:24:05,760 a Star Trek episode. It's the same 4817 01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:08,070 a Star Trek episode. It's the same [\h__\h] every time. just endless 4818 01:24:08,070 --> 01:24:08,080 [\h__\h] every time. just endless 4819 01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:09,990 [\h__\h] every time. just endless whining about how closed-minded 4820 01:24:09,990 --> 01:24:10,000 whining about how closed-minded 4821 01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:12,950 whining about how closed-minded academics mock these bold ideas which 4822 01:24:12,950 --> 01:24:12,960 academics mock these bold ideas which 4823 01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:15,189 academics mock these bold ideas which are actually just dumb stories based on 4824 01:24:15,189 --> 01:24:15,199 are actually just dumb stories based on 4825 01:24:15,199 --> 01:24:17,110 are actually just dumb stories based on precisely zero evidence. You know, 4826 01:24:17,110 --> 01:24:17,120 precisely zero evidence. You know, 4827 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:18,550 precisely zero evidence. You know, there's speculation that one of the 4828 01:24:18,550 --> 01:24:18,560 there's speculation that one of the 4829 01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:21,350 there's speculation that one of the pillars from Gobecleti that is unearthed 4830 01:24:21,350 --> 01:24:21,360 pillars from Gobecleti that is unearthed 4831 01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:24,950 pillars from Gobecleti that is unearthed is some sort of a calendar of events and 4832 01:24:24,950 --> 01:24:24,960 is some sort of a calendar of events and 4833 01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:27,189 is some sort of a calendar of events and they believe that it depicts some sort 4834 01:24:27,189 --> 01:24:27,199 they believe that it depicts some sort 4835 01:24:27,199 --> 01:24:30,629 they believe that it depicts some sort of a disaster like that these 4836 01:24:30,629 --> 01:24:30,639 of a disaster like that these 4837 01:24:30,639 --> 01:24:33,270 of a disaster like that these whatever how they they're making these 4838 01:24:33,270 --> 01:24:33,280 whatever how they they're making these 4839 01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:37,350 whatever how they they're making these images to be associated with either an 4840 01:24:37,350 --> 01:24:37,360 images to be associated with either an 4841 01:24:37,360 --> 01:24:39,750 images to be associated with either an impact or something. But there's a 4842 01:24:39,750 --> 01:24:39,760 impact or something. But there's a 4843 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:42,229 impact or something. But there's a timeline that's inscribed in these 4844 01:24:42,229 --> 01:24:42,239 timeline that's inscribed in these 4845 01:24:42,239 --> 01:24:43,030 timeline that's inscribed in these pillars. 4846 01:24:43,030 --> 01:24:43,040 pillars. 4847 01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:44,790 pillars. >> Yeah. They there's like a a study that 4848 01:24:44,790 --> 01:24:44,800 >> Yeah. They there's like a a study that 4849 01:24:44,800 --> 01:24:46,070 >> Yeah. They there's like a a study that was written or a paper that was written 4850 01:24:46,070 --> 01:24:46,080 was written or a paper that was written 4851 01:24:46,080 --> 01:24:48,950 was written or a paper that was written and they think it's the pillar 43 I 4852 01:24:48,950 --> 01:24:48,960 and they think it's the pillar 43 I 4853 01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:50,629 and they think it's the pillar 43 I think it is is kind of like a cosmic 4854 01:24:50,629 --> 01:24:50,639 think it is is kind of like a cosmic 4855 01:24:50,639 --> 01:24:52,790 think it is is kind of like a cosmic calendar and it's like a almost a 4856 01:24:52,790 --> 01:24:52,800 calendar and it's like a almost a 4857 01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:54,870 calendar and it's like a almost a prediction model of an impact that could 4858 01:24:54,870 --> 01:24:54,880 prediction model of an impact that could 4859 01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:56,870 prediction model of an impact that could happen or already has happened and that 4860 01:24:56,870 --> 01:24:56,880 happen or already has happened and that 4861 01:24:56,880 --> 01:24:58,870 happen or already has happened and that it's like a warning for the future that 4862 01:24:58,870 --> 01:24:58,880 it's like a warning for the future that 4863 01:24:58,880 --> 01:25:00,870 it's like a warning for the future that I mean that is still disputed but I mean 4864 01:25:00,870 --> 01:25:00,880 I mean that is still disputed but I mean 4865 01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:02,070 I mean that is still disputed but I mean there's been good research that's done 4866 01:25:02,070 --> 01:25:02,080 there's been good research that's done 4867 01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:03,669 there's been good research that's done into that that suggests that's what it 4868 01:25:03,669 --> 01:25:03,679 into that that suggests that's what it 4869 01:25:03,679 --> 01:25:05,590 into that that suggests that's what it is and it's certainly a site that has 4870 01:25:05,590 --> 01:25:05,600 is and it's certainly a site that has 4871 01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:08,629 is and it's certainly a site that has cosmic alignments and has been built 4872 01:25:08,629 --> 01:25:08,639 cosmic alignments and has been built 4873 01:25:08,639 --> 01:25:10,550 cosmic alignments and has been built with the the stars in mind which is 4874 01:25:10,550 --> 01:25:10,560 with the the stars in mind which is 4875 01:25:10,560 --> 01:25:12,470 with the the stars in mind which is something that we can say about so many 4876 01:25:12,470 --> 01:25:12,480 something that we can say about so many 4877 01:25:12,480 --> 01:25:13,910 something that we can say about so many ancient sites around the world, which is 4878 01:25:13,910 --> 01:25:13,920 ancient sites around the world, which is 4879 01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:16,470 ancient sites around the world, which is another thing that isn't really 4880 01:25:16,470 --> 01:25:16,480 another thing that isn't really 4881 01:25:16,480 --> 01:25:19,030 another thing that isn't really considered by, you know, quote unquote 4882 01:25:19,030 --> 01:25:19,040 considered by, you know, quote unquote 4883 01:25:19,040 --> 01:25:20,550 considered by, you know, quote unquote mainstream archaeology perhaps as much 4884 01:25:20,550 --> 01:25:20,560 mainstream archaeology perhaps as much 4885 01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:23,270 mainstream archaeology perhaps as much as it should be.

You can't say that 4940 01:26:18,950 --> 01:26:18,960 decades. You can't say that 4941 01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:20,870 decades. You can't say that archaeologists are ignoring something 4942 01:26:20,870 --> 01:26:20,880 archaeologists are ignoring something 4943 01:26:20,880 --> 01:26:23,510 archaeologists are ignoring something while describing a sub field with a name 4944 01:26:23,510 --> 01:26:23,520 while describing a sub field with a name 4945 01:26:23,520 --> 01:26:26,310 while describing a sub field with a name that means studying that exact thing. 4946 01:26:26,310 --> 01:26:26,320 that means studying that exact thing. 4947 01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:28,709 that means studying that exact thing. Stonehenge, lots of sites in Mexico, 4948 01:26:28,709 --> 01:26:28,719 Stonehenge, lots of sites in Mexico, 4949 01:26:28,719 --> 01:26:31,590 Stonehenge, lots of sites in Mexico, Giza, it's a robust field. And there is 4950 01:26:31,590 --> 01:26:31,600 Giza, it's a robust field. And there is 4951 01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:33,750 Giza, it's a robust field. And there is peer-reviewed literature on Gobeclete's 4952 01:26:33,750 --> 01:26:33,760 peer-reviewed literature on Gobeclete's 4953 01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:35,510 peer-reviewed literature on Gobeclete's possible alignment going back to at 4954 01:26:35,510 --> 01:26:35,520 possible alignment going back to at 4955 01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:37,990 possible alignment going back to at least 2013. You are telling millions of 4956 01:26:37,990 --> 01:26:38,000 least 2013. You are telling millions of 4957 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:40,229 least 2013. You are telling millions of people that academia ignores a field 4958 01:26:40,229 --> 01:26:40,239 people that academia ignores a field 4959 01:26:40,239 --> 01:26:42,470 people that academia ignores a field that academia created. Great work, 4960 01:26:42,470 --> 01:26:42,480 that academia created. Great work, 4961 01:26:42,480 --> 01:26:43,270 that academia created. Great work, Dingus. 4962 01:26:43,270 --> 01:26:43,280 Dingus. 4963 01:26:43,280 --> 01:26:44,870 Dingus. >> Bizarre thing that, you know, 4964 01:26:44,870 --> 01:26:44,880 >> Bizarre thing that, you know, 4965 01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:46,709 >> Bizarre thing that, you know, agriculture appears in multiple 4966 01:26:46,709 --> 01:26:46,719 agriculture appears in multiple 4967 01:26:46,719 --> 01:26:48,229 agriculture appears in multiple different places at pretty much the 4968 01:26:48,229 --> 01:26:48,239 different places at pretty much the 4969 01:26:48,239 --> 01:26:49,910 different places at pretty much the exact same time all over the world. And 4970 01:26:49,910 --> 01:26:49,920 exact same time all over the world. And 4971 01:26:49,920 --> 01:26:52,310 exact same time all over the world. And that's never made sense to me because if 4972 01:26:52,310 --> 01:26:52,320 that's never made sense to me because if 4973 01:26:52,320 --> 01:26:55,189 that's never made sense to me because if agriculture was such a kind of vital 4974 01:26:55,189 --> 01:26:55,199 agriculture was such a kind of vital 4975 01:26:55,199 --> 01:26:58,149 agriculture was such a kind of vital invention for civilization to flourish, 4976 01:26:58,149 --> 01:26:58,159 invention for civilization to flourish, 4977 01:26:58,159 --> 01:27:00,629 invention for civilization to flourish, then why did no one invent it for, you 4978 01:27:00,629 --> 01:27:00,639 then why did no one invent it for, you 4979 01:27:00,639 --> 01:27:04,149 then why did no one invent it for, you know, 310,000 years? And then in South 4980 01:27:04,149 --> 01:27:04,159 know, 310,000 years? And then in South 4981 01:27:04,159 --> 01:27:06,709 know, 310,000 years? And then in South America, in Mesopotamia, in ancient 4982 01:27:06,709 --> 01:27:06,719 America, in Mesopotamia, in ancient 4983 01:27:06,719 --> 01:27:08,629 America, in Mesopotamia, in ancient China, and you could argue there's other 4984 01:27:08,629 --> 01:27:08,639 China, and you could argue there's other 4985 01:27:08,639 --> 01:27:10,550 China, and you could argue there's other different places that so say there's 4986 01:27:10,550 --> 01:27:10,560 different places that so say there's 4987 01:27:10,560 --> 01:27:11,990 different places that so say there's like South America and there's Central 4988 01:27:11,990 --> 01:27:12,000 like South America and there's Central 4989 01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:13,430 like South America and there's Central America. I mean, you could argue that's 4990 01:27:13,430 --> 01:27:13,440 America. I mean, you could argue that's 4991 01:27:13,440 --> 01:27:14,950 America. I mean, you could argue that's potentially connected, but a lot of 4992 01:27:14,950 --> 01:27:14,960 potentially connected, but a lot of 4993 01:27:14,960 --> 01:27:17,030 potentially connected, but a lot of people say it isn't. So, how can 4994 01:27:17,030 --> 01:27:17,040 people say it isn't. So, how can 4995 01:27:17,040 --> 01:27:18,870 people say it isn't. So, how can agriculture if it's such an incredible 4996 01:27:18,870 --> 01:27:18,880 agriculture if it's such an incredible 4997 01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:20,550 agriculture if it's such an incredible invention 4998 01:27:20,550 --> 01:27:20,560 invention 4999 01:27:20,560 --> 01:27:22,790 invention be invented by multiple people at the 5000 01:27:22,790 --> 01:27:22,800 be invented by multiple people at the 5001 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:24,629 be invented by multiple people at the same time? And then, but no one else 5002 01:27:24,629 --> 01:27:24,639 same time? And then, but no one else 5003 01:27:24,639 --> 01:27:26,470 same time? And then, but no one else thought of it before. I It doesn't It 5004 01:27:26,470 --> 01:27:26,480 thought of it before. I It doesn't It 5005 01:27:26,480 --> 01:27:27,189 thought of it before. I It doesn't It doesn't make sense to me. 5006 01:27:27,189 --> 01:27:27,199 doesn't make sense to me. 5007 01:27:27,199 --> 01:27:28,310 doesn't make sense to me. >> It doesn't make any sense. It doesn't 5008 01:27:28,310 --> 01:27:28,320 >> It doesn't make any sense. It doesn't 5009 01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:29,669 >> It doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense they wouldn't figure out 5010 01:27:29,669 --> 01:27:29,679 make any sense they wouldn't figure out 5011 01:27:29,679 --> 01:27:32,310 make any sense they wouldn't figure out seeds. Why didn't humans just magically 5012 01:27:32,310 --> 01:27:32,320 seeds. Why didn't humans just magically 5013 01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:34,229 seeds. Why didn't humans just magically invent agriculture like a million years 5014 01:27:34,229 --> 01:27:34,239 invent agriculture like a million years 5015 01:27:34,239 --> 01:27:36,390 invent agriculture like a million years ago? And why didn't ancient Rome have 5016 01:27:36,390 --> 01:27:36,400 ago? And why didn't ancient Rome have 5017 01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:38,470 ago? And why didn't ancient Rome have the internet? It doesn't make sense, you 5018 01:27:38,470 --> 01:27:38,480 the internet? It doesn't make sense, you 5019 01:27:38,480 --> 01:27:40,229 the internet? It doesn't make sense, you guys. Well, when you're [\h__\h] stupid 5020 01:27:40,229 --> 01:27:40,239 guys. Well, when you're [\h__\h] stupid 5021 01:27:40,239 --> 01:27:42,229 guys. Well, when you're [\h__\h] stupid like these two, nothing makes sense. To 5022 01:27:42,229 --> 01:27:42,239 like these two, nothing makes sense. To 5023 01:27:42,239 --> 01:27:44,390 like these two, nothing makes sense. To everyone else, it's just basic cause and 5024 01:27:44,390 --> 01:27:44,400 everyone else, it's just basic cause and 5025 01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:46,229 everyone else, it's just basic cause and effect that has been understood for a 5026 01:27:46,229 --> 01:27:46,239 effect that has been understood for a 5027 01:27:46,239 --> 01:27:48,229 effect that has been understood for a very long time. The end of the younger 5028 01:27:48,229 --> 01:27:48,239 very long time. The end of the younger 5029 01:27:48,239 --> 01:27:51,110 very long time. The end of the younger das around 11,700 years ago brought 5030 01:27:51,110 --> 01:27:51,120 das around 11,700 years ago brought 5031 01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:52,870 das around 11,700 years ago brought climate stabilization for the first time 5032 01:27:52,870 --> 01:27:52,880 climate stabilization for the first time 5033 01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:55,350 climate stabilization for the first time in roughly 100,000 years. The preceding 5034 01:27:55,350 --> 01:27:55,360 in roughly 100,000 years. The preceding 5035 01:27:55,360 --> 01:27:56,870 in roughly 100,000 years. The preceding period had temperature swings too 5036 01:27:56,870 --> 01:27:56,880 period had temperature swings too 5037 01:27:56,880 --> 01:27:58,709 period had temperature swings too dramatic and unpredictable to sustain 5038 01:27:58,709 --> 01:27:58,719 dramatic and unpredictable to sustain 5039 01:27:58,719 --> 01:28:00,629 dramatic and unpredictable to sustain long-term crop cultivation anywhere on 5040 01:28:00,629 --> 01:28:00,639 long-term crop cultivation anywhere on 5041 01:28:00,639 --> 01:28:02,709 long-term crop cultivation anywhere on Earth. When the climate stabilized, the 5042 01:28:02,709 --> 01:28:02,719 Earth. When the climate stabilized, the 5043 01:28:02,719 --> 01:28:04,950 Earth. When the climate stabilized, the conditions that made agriculture viable 5044 01:28:04,950 --> 01:28:04,960 conditions that made agriculture viable 5045 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:07,030 conditions that made agriculture viable appeared globally at the same time 5046 01:28:07,030 --> 01:28:07,040 appeared globally at the same time 5047 01:28:07,040 --> 01:28:09,590 appeared globally at the same time because it was a global climatic event. 5048 01:28:09,590 --> 01:28:09,600 because it was a global climatic event. 5049 01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:10,950 because it was a global climatic event. Of course, it appeared in multiple 5050 01:28:10,950 --> 01:28:10,960 Of course, it appeared in multiple 5051 01:28:10,960 --> 01:28:13,189 Of course, it appeared in multiple places at once. The whole planet's 5052 01:28:13,189 --> 01:28:13,199 places at once. The whole planet's 5053 01:28:13,199 --> 01:28:15,830 places at once. The whole planet's climate changed at once, you nimrods. 5054 01:28:15,830 --> 01:28:15,840 climate changed at once, you nimrods. 5055 01:28:15,840 --> 01:28:18,629 climate changed at once, you nimrods. Also, migration is a thing. People can 5056 01:28:18,629 --> 01:28:18,639 Also, migration is a thing. People can 5057 01:28:18,639 --> 01:28:21,189 Also, migration is a thing. People can change locations. A group of people can 5058 01:28:21,189 --> 01:28:21,199 change locations. A group of people can 5059 01:28:21,199 --> 01:28:23,270 change locations. A group of people can figure out agriculture. And then some of 5060 01:28:23,270 --> 01:28:23,280 figure out agriculture. And then some of 5061 01:28:23,280 --> 01:28:26,149 figure out agriculture. And then some of those people can go to other places and 5062 01:28:26,149 --> 01:28:26,159 those people can go to other places and 5063 01:28:26,159 --> 01:28:28,550 those people can go to other places and do more agriculture. Merchants are a 5064 01:28:28,550 --> 01:28:28,560 do more agriculture. Merchants are a 5065 01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:30,790 do more agriculture. Merchants are a thing. Seeds can be traded. How the [\h__\h] 5066 01:28:30,790 --> 01:28:30,800 thing. Seeds can be traded. How the [\h__\h] 5067 01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:32,310 thing. Seeds can be traded. How the [\h__\h] is this so hard to wrap your heads 5068 01:28:32,310 --> 01:28:32,320 is this so hard to wrap your heads 5069 01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:33,350 is this so hard to wrap your heads around, guys? 5070 01:28:33,350 --> 01:28:33,360 around, guys? 5071 01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:35,030 around, guys? >> Yeah. So, this is the preservation 5072 01:28:35,030 --> 01:28:35,040 >> Yeah. So, this is the preservation 5073 01:28:35,040 --> 01:28:36,390 >> Yeah. So, this is the preservation problem. And this is something I talk 5074 01:28:36,390 --> 01:28:36,400 problem. And this is something I talk 5075 01:28:36,400 --> 01:28:38,629 problem. And this is something I talk about in my videos. So I kind of always 5076 01:28:38,629 --> 01:28:38,639 about in my videos. So I kind of always 5077 01:28:38,639 --> 01:28:41,910 about in my videos. So I kind of always ask the question like what if a human 5078 01:28:41,910 --> 01:28:41,920 ask the question like what if a human 5079 01:28:41,920 --> 01:28:43,830 ask the question like what if a human culture had flourished in the emian for 5080 01:28:43,830 --> 01:28:43,840 culture had flourished in the emian for 5081 01:28:43,840 --> 01:28:46,790 culture had flourished in the emian for example which was from 130 to 115,000 5082 01:28:46,790 --> 01:28:46,800 example which was from 130 to 115,000 5083 01:28:46,800 --> 01:28:49,189 example which was from 130 to 115,000 years ago what realistically would 5084 01:28:49,189 --> 01:28:49,199 years ago what realistically would 5085 01:28:49,199 --> 01:28:51,510 years ago what realistically would survive because 5086 01:28:51,510 --> 01:28:51,520 survive because 5087 01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:53,750 survive because it's it's such a vast vast length of 5088 01:28:53,750 --> 01:28:53,760 it's it's such a vast vast length of 5089 01:28:53,760 --> 01:28:56,070 it's it's such a vast vast length of time that it's really unlikely at least 5090 01:28:56,070 --> 01:28:56,080 time that it's really unlikely at least 5091 01:28:56,080 --> 01:28:57,669 time that it's really unlikely at least as far as I can tell and obviously I'm 5092 01:28:57,669 --> 01:28:57,679 as far as I can tell and obviously I'm 5093 01:28:57,679 --> 01:28:59,110 as far as I can tell and obviously I'm not a scientist I'm not like a you know 5094 01:28:59,110 --> 01:28:59,120 not a scientist I'm not like a you know 5095 01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:00,629 not a scientist I'm not like a you know a material I'm not any kind of I'm just 5096 01:29:00,629 --> 01:29:00,639 a material I'm not any kind of I'm just 5097 01:29:00,639 --> 01:29:01,990 a material I'm not any kind of I'm just a guy I'm not even a historian 5098 01:29:01,990 --> 01:29:02,000 a guy I'm not even a historian 5099 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,709 a guy I'm not even a historian technically but as far as I can tell 5100 01:29:04,709 --> 01:29:04,719 technically but as far as I can tell 5101 01:29:04,719 --> 01:29:07,030 technically but as far as I can tell it's extremely hard for these for any 5102 01:29:07,030 --> 01:29:07,040 it's extremely hard for these for any 5103 01:29:07,040 --> 01:29:09,270 it's extremely hard for these for any materials, but even our modern materials 5104 01:29:09,270 --> 01:29:09,280 materials, but even our modern materials 5105 01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:11,830 materials, but even our modern materials in our huge civilization that you know 8 5106 01:29:11,830 --> 01:29:11,840 in our huge civilization that you know 8 5107 01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:13,750 in our huge civilization that you know 8 billion people, industrial society, 5108 01:29:13,750 --> 01:29:13,760 billion people, industrial society, 5109 01:29:13,760 --> 01:29:15,189 billion people, industrial society, sending rockets to space, you know, all 5110 01:29:15,189 --> 01:29:15,199 sending rockets to space, you know, all 5111 01:29:15,199 --> 01:29:17,110 sending rockets to space, you know, all the crazy stuff that we're doing. Even 5112 01:29:17,110 --> 01:29:17,120 the crazy stuff that we're doing. Even 5113 01:29:17,120 --> 01:29:19,590 the crazy stuff that we're doing. Even us, if we disappear tomorrow, I think it 5114 01:29:19,590 --> 01:29:19,600 us, if we disappear tomorrow, I think it 5115 01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:22,709 us, if we disappear tomorrow, I think it would be extremely unlikely that pretty 5116 01:29:22,709 --> 01:29:22,719 would be extremely unlikely that pretty 5117 01:29:22,719 --> 01:29:24,470 would be extremely unlikely that pretty much anything would survive when you get 5118 01:29:24,470 --> 01:29:24,480 much anything would survive when you get 5119 01:29:24,480 --> 01:29:26,310 much anything would survive when you get up to these huge time scales of like a 5120 01:29:26,310 --> 01:29:26,320 up to these huge time scales of like a 5121 01:29:26,320 --> 01:29:28,470 up to these huge time scales of like a 100,000 years. So, I've been doing quite 5122 01:29:28,470 --> 01:29:28,480 100,000 years. So, I've been doing quite 5123 01:29:28,480 --> 01:29:31,030 100,000 years. So, I've been doing quite a lot of, you know, research into this 5124 01:29:31,030 --> 01:29:31,040 a lot of, you know, research into this 5125 01:29:31,040 --> 01:29:33,350 a lot of, you know, research into this and because I don't I obviously don't 5126 01:29:33,350 --> 01:29:33,360 and because I don't I obviously don't 5127 01:29:33,360 --> 01:29:35,110 and because I don't I obviously don't want to, you know, get things wrong and 5128 01:29:35,110 --> 01:29:35,120 want to, you know, get things wrong and 5129 01:29:35,120 --> 01:29:36,790 want to, you know, get things wrong and put falsehoods out there and mislead 5130 01:29:36,790 --> 01:29:36,800 put falsehoods out there and mislead 5131 01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:38,149 put falsehoods out there and mislead people.

Every time you whine about mainstream consensus, you're 5802 01:40:31,990 --> 01:40:32,000 whine about mainstream consensus, you're 5803 01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:33,990 whine about mainstream consensus, you're always just spewing some horseshit that 5804 01:40:33,990 --> 01:40:34,000 always just spewing some horseshit that 5805 01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:35,830 always just spewing some horseshit that is directly contradicted by a ton of 5806 01:40:35,830 --> 01:40:35,840 is directly contradicted by a ton of 5807 01:40:35,840 --> 01:40:37,430 is directly contradicted by a ton of science you've never bothered to learn. 5808 01:40:37,430 --> 01:40:37,440 science you've never bothered to learn. 5809 01:40:37,440 --> 01:40:39,830 science you've never bothered to learn. How embarrassing. What is that evidence 5810 01:40:39,830 --> 01:40:39,840 How embarrassing. What is that evidence 5811 01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:42,870 How embarrassing. What is that evidence that they found of wood construction 5812 01:40:42,870 --> 01:40:42,880 that they found of wood construction 5813 01:40:42,880 --> 01:40:45,590 that they found of wood construction from far longer than they thought? 5814 01:40:45,590 --> 01:40:45,600 from far longer than they thought? 5815 01:40:45,600 --> 01:40:47,189 from far longer than they thought? >> Yeah, this is the Columbbo structure and 5816 01:40:47,189 --> 01:40:47,199 >> Yeah, this is the Columbbo structure and 5817 01:40:47,199 --> 01:40:48,709 >> Yeah, this is the Columbbo structure and this is something I talk about a lot in 5818 01:40:48,709 --> 01:40:48,719 this is something I talk about a lot in 5819 01:40:48,719 --> 01:40:51,030 this is something I talk about a lot in my videos because I think it's a crazy 5820 01:40:51,030 --> 01:40:51,040 my videos because I think it's a crazy 5821 01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:52,790 my videos because I think it's a crazy find and I don't understand why it's not 5822 01:40:52,790 --> 01:40:52,800 find and I don't understand why it's not 5823 01:40:52,800 --> 01:40:54,950 find and I don't understand why it's not kicking up more of a fuss. Like if I'm 5824 01:40:54,950 --> 01:40:54,960 kicking up more of a fuss. Like if I'm 5825 01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:56,149 kicking up more of a fuss. Like if I'm the guy that has to kick up the fuss 5826 01:40:56,149 --> 01:40:56,159 the guy that has to kick up the fuss 5827 01:40:56,159 --> 01:40:59,189 the guy that has to kick up the fuss about it, then I'll be that guy. Because 5828 01:40:59,189 --> 01:40:59,199 about it, then I'll be that guy. Because 5829 01:40:59,199 --> 01:41:01,510 about it, then I'll be that guy. Because basically, we've the idea has always 5830 01:41:01,510 --> 01:41:01,520 basically, we've the idea has always 5831 01:41:01,520 --> 01:41:04,470 basically, we've the idea has always been that humans were nomadic hunter 5832 01:41:04,470 --> 01:41:04,480 been that humans were nomadic hunter 5833 01:41:04,480 --> 01:41:06,310 been that humans were nomadic hunter gatherers that moved with the seasons 5834 01:41:06,310 --> 01:41:06,320 gatherers that moved with the seasons 5835 01:41:06,320 --> 01:41:08,709 gatherers that moved with the seasons and lived in caves or just kind of 5836 01:41:08,709 --> 01:41:08,719 and lived in caves or just kind of 5837 01:41:08,719 --> 01:41:11,510 and lived in caves or just kind of walked around for all of our history 5838 01:41:11,510 --> 01:41:11,520 walked around for all of our history 5839 01:41:11,520 --> 01:41:13,750 walked around for all of our history until the Neolithic Revolution, the 5840 01:41:13,750 --> 01:41:13,760 until the Neolithic Revolution, the 5841 01:41:13,760 --> 01:41:15,910 until the Neolithic Revolution, the invention of agriculture 12,000 years 5842 01:41:15,910 --> 01:41:15,920 invention of agriculture 12,000 years 5843 01:41:15,920 --> 01:41:17,750 invention of agriculture 12,000 years ago. And no earlier than that did we 5844 01:41:17,750 --> 01:41:17,760 ago. And no earlier than that did we 5845 01:41:17,760 --> 01:41:19,510 ago. And no earlier than that did we ever settle down and live in permanent 5846 01:41:19,510 --> 01:41:19,520 ever settle down and live in permanent 5847 01:41:19,520 --> 01:41:22,550 ever settle down and live in permanent settlements. The Colombo Falls discovery 5848 01:41:22,550 --> 01:41:22,560 settlements. The Colombo Falls discovery 5849 01:41:22,560 --> 01:41:24,790 settlements. The Colombo Falls discovery is two intentionally modified logs 5850 01:41:24,790 --> 01:41:24,800 is two intentionally modified logs 5851 01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:27,750 is two intentionally modified logs fitted together dated to around 476,000 5852 01:41:27,750 --> 01:41:27,760 fitted together dated to around 476,000 5853 01:41:27,760 --> 01:41:29,750 fitted together dated to around 476,000 years ago. It's very interesting, but 5854 01:41:29,750 --> 01:41:29,760 years ago. It's very interesting, but 5855 01:41:29,760 --> 01:41:31,590 years ago. It's very interesting, but construction is not the same thing as a 5856 01:41:31,590 --> 01:41:31,600 construction is not the same thing as a 5857 01:41:31,600 --> 01:41:33,270 construction is not the same thing as a permanent settlement. And it sure as 5858 01:41:33,270 --> 01:41:33,280 permanent settlement. And it sure as 5859 01:41:33,280 --> 01:41:34,629 permanent settlement. And it sure as hell is not the same thing as 5860 01:41:34,629 --> 01:41:34,639 hell is not the same thing as 5861 01:41:34,639 --> 01:41:36,870 hell is not the same thing as civilization. The reason it is such a 5862 01:41:36,870 --> 01:41:36,880 civilization. The reason it is such a 5863 01:41:36,880 --> 01:41:38,950 civilization. The reason it is such a remarkable find is specifically that the 5864 01:41:38,950 --> 01:41:38,960 remarkable find is specifically that the 5865 01:41:38,960 --> 01:41:40,229 remarkable find is specifically that the preservation conditions were 5866 01:41:40,229 --> 01:41:40,239 preservation conditions were 5867 01:41:40,239 --> 01:41:42,070 preservation conditions were exceptional. Water logging in and low 5868 01:41:42,070 --> 01:41:42,080 exceptional. Water logging in and low 5869 01:41:42,080 --> 01:41:44,709 exceptional. Water logging in and low oxygen sediment drastically slows decay, 5870 01:41:44,709 --> 01:41:44,719 oxygen sediment drastically slows decay, 5871 01:41:44,719 --> 01:41:46,070 oxygen sediment drastically slows decay, which is the reason that organic 5872 01:41:46,070 --> 01:41:46,080 which is the reason that organic 5873 01:41:46,080 --> 01:41:47,830 which is the reason that organic material from that era almost never 5874 01:41:47,830 --> 01:41:47,840 material from that era almost never 5875 01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:50,229 material from that era almost never survives. exceptional preservation does 5876 01:41:50,229 --> 01:41:50,239 survives. exceptional preservation does 5877 01:41:50,239 --> 01:41:51,669 survives. exceptional preservation does not mean there were wooden towns 5878 01:41:51,669 --> 01:41:51,679 not mean there were wooden towns 5879 01:41:51,679 --> 01:41:53,270 not mean there were wooden towns everywhere that disappeared without a 5880 01:41:53,270 --> 01:41:53,280 everywhere that disappeared without a 5881 01:41:53,280 --> 01:41:53,750 everywhere that disappeared without a trace. 5882 01:41:53,750 --> 01:41:53,760 trace. 5883 01:41:53,760 --> 01:41:55,910 trace. >> We've always had this idea that there's 5884 01:41:55,910 --> 01:41:55,920 >> We've always had this idea that there's 5885 01:41:55,920 --> 01:41:58,470 >> We've always had this idea that there's been this very popular idea in in kind 5886 01:41:58,470 --> 01:41:58,480 been this very popular idea in in kind 5887 01:41:58,480 --> 01:42:01,109 been this very popular idea in in kind of mainstream historical thought that 5888 01:42:01,109 --> 01:42:01,119 of mainstream historical thought that 5889 01:42:01,119 --> 01:42:03,510 of mainstream historical thought that humans only got smart around 50 to 5890 01:42:03,510 --> 01:42:03,520 humans only got smart around 50 to 5891 01:42:03,520 --> 01:42:05,510 humans only got smart around 50 to 60,000 years ago. And that's just homo 5892 01:42:05,510 --> 01:42:05,520 60,000 years ago. And that's just homo 5893 01:42:05,520 --> 01:42:06,790 60,000 years ago. And that's just homo sapiens. We've always thought that other 5894 01:42:06,790 --> 01:42:06,800 sapiens. We've always thought that other 5895 01:42:06,800 --> 01:42:08,709 sapiens. We've always thought that other human species never got smart, never 5896 01:42:08,709 --> 01:42:08,719 human species never got smart, never 5897 01:42:08,719 --> 01:42:10,709 human species never got smart, never achieved what we call behavioral 5898 01:42:10,709 --> 01:42:10,719 achieved what we call behavioral 5899 01:42:10,719 --> 01:42:12,470 achieved what we call behavioral modernity.

It's always been the idea that we're the smartest humans and 6146 01:46:11,109 --> 01:46:11,119 that we're the smartest humans and 6147 01:46:11,119 --> 01:46:13,109 that we're the smartest humans and that's why we won. And to be fair, we 6148 01:46:13,109 --> 01:46:13,119 that's why we won. And to be fair, we 6149 01:46:13,119 --> 01:46:13,990 that's why we won. And to be fair, we did win. 6150 01:46:13,990 --> 01:46:14,000 did win. 6151 01:46:14,000 --> 01:46:14,550 did win. >> We did win. 6152 01:46:14,550 --> 01:46:14,560 >> We did win. 6153 01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:15,510 >> We did win. >> Win whatever you want to call. 6154 01:46:15,510 --> 01:46:15,520 >> Win whatever you want to call. 6155 01:46:15,520 --> 01:46:16,790 >> Win whatever you want to call. >> We might just be the most evil. 6156 01:46:16,790 --> 01:46:16,800 >> We might just be the most evil. 6157 01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:17,990 >> We might just be the most evil. >> Yeah, we might be the most evil or we 6158 01:46:17,990 --> 01:46:18,000 >> Yeah, we might be the most evil or we 6159 01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:19,189 >> Yeah, we might be the most evil or we just might be the luckiest ones, you 6160 01:46:19,189 --> 01:46:19,199 just might be the luckiest ones, you 6161 01:46:19,199 --> 01:46:19,350 just might be the luckiest ones, you know. 6162 01:46:19,350 --> 01:46:19,360 know. 6163 01:46:19,360 --> 01:46:21,109 know. >> Well, we're the weakest, so we probably 6164 01:46:21,109 --> 01:46:21,119 >> Well, we're the weakest, so we probably 6165 01:46:21,119 --> 01:46:23,109 >> Well, we're the weakest, so we probably had to be evil. True. We had to figure 6166 01:46:23,109 --> 01:46:23,119 had to be evil. True. We had to figure 6167 01:46:23,119 --> 01:46:25,030 had to be evil. True. We had to figure out weapons that were would be able to 6168 01:46:25,030 --> 01:46:25,040 out weapons that were would be able to 6169 01:46:25,040 --> 01:46:27,109 out weapons that were would be able to defeat the Neandertols who had by the 6170 01:46:27,109 --> 01:46:27,119 defeat the Neandertols who had by the 6171 01:46:27,119 --> 01:46:28,870 defeat the Neandertols who had by the way larger brain capacities. 6172 01:46:28,870 --> 01:46:28,880 way larger brain capacities. 6173 01:46:28,880 --> 01:46:30,310 way larger brain capacities. >> I think they were just as intelligent as 6174 01:46:30,310 --> 01:46:30,320 >> I think they were just as intelligent as 6175 01:46:30,320 --> 01:46:30,950 >> I think they were just as intelligent as us to be. 6176 01:46:30,950 --> 01:46:30,960 us to be. 6177 01:46:30,960 --> 01:46:31,750 us to be. >> That's nuts. 6178 01:46:31,750 --> 01:46:31,760 >> That's nuts. 6179 01:46:31,760 --> 01:46:33,590 >> That's nuts. >> Bigger cranial volume does not equal 6180 01:46:33,590 --> 01:46:33,600 >> Bigger cranial volume does not equal 6181 01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:35,830 >> Bigger cranial volume does not equal more intelligence. Cognition depends on 6182 01:46:35,830 --> 01:46:35,840 more intelligence. Cognition depends on 6183 01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:37,830 more intelligence. Cognition depends on brain organization, body size, 6184 01:46:37,830 --> 01:46:37,840 brain organization, body size, 6185 01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:39,350 brain organization, body size, developmental pattern, and what 6186 01:46:39,350 --> 01:46:39,360 developmental pattern, and what 6187 01:46:39,360 --> 01:46:41,030 developmental pattern, and what different neural systems are doing, not 6188 01:46:41,030 --> 01:46:41,040 different neural systems are doing, not 6189 01:46:41,040 --> 01:46:43,510 different neural systems are doing, not just volume. Yes, Neanderls had large 6190 01:46:43,510 --> 01:46:43,520 just volume. Yes, Neanderls had large 6191 01:46:43,520 --> 01:46:45,030 just volume. Yes, Neanderls had large brains, but that doesn't mean they were 6192 01:46:45,030 --> 01:46:45,040 brains, but that doesn't mean they were 6193 01:46:45,040 --> 01:46:46,790 brains, but that doesn't mean they were smarter than modern humans. This is 6194 01:46:46,790 --> 01:46:46,800 smarter than modern humans. This is 6195 01:46:46,800 --> 01:46:49,109 smarter than modern humans. This is basic paleo anthropology and these two 6196 01:46:49,109 --> 01:46:49,119 basic paleo anthropology and these two 6197 01:46:49,119 --> 01:46:50,790 basic paleo anthropology and these two nitwits still managed to make it sound 6198 01:46:50,790 --> 01:46:50,800 nitwits still managed to make it sound 6199 01:46:50,800 --> 01:46:52,390 nitwits still managed to make it sound like a bong hit revelation. 6200 01:46:52,390 --> 01:46:52,400 like a bong hit revelation. 6201 01:46:52,400 --> 01:46:53,910 like a bong hit revelation. >> Either I mean maybe they got wiped out 6202 01:46:53,910 --> 01:46:53,920 >> Either I mean maybe they got wiped out 6203 01:46:53,920 --> 01:46:55,430 >> Either I mean maybe they got wiped out by something like disease or did they 6204 01:46:55,430 --> 01:46:55,440 by something like disease or did they 6205 01:46:55,440 --> 01:46:57,430 by something like disease or did they even get wiped out? Because if you even 6206 01:46:57,430 --> 01:46:57,440 even get wiped out? Because if you even 6207 01:46:57,440 --> 01:46:59,830 even get wiped out? Because if you even look at the DNA of non-affrican humans, 6208 01:46:59,830 --> 01:46:59,840 look at the DNA of non-affrican humans, 6209 01:46:59,840 --> 01:47:01,590 look at the DNA of non-affrican humans, it's something like 20% in some 6210 01:47:01,590 --> 01:47:01,600 it's something like 20% in some 6211 01:47:01,600 --> 01:47:03,990 it's something like 20% in some populations as Neanderthal. So they're 6212 01:47:03,990 --> 01:47:04,000 populations as Neanderthal. So they're 6213 01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:04,950 populations as Neanderthal. So they're kind of still here. 6214 01:47:04,950 --> 01:47:04,960 kind of still here. 6215 01:47:04,960 --> 01:47:07,510 kind of still here. >> No, Mikey, nobody is something like 20% 6216 01:47:07,510 --> 01:47:07,520 >> No, Mikey, nobody is something like 20% 6217 01:47:07,520 --> 01:47:10,470 >> No, Mikey, nobody is something like 20% Neanderl. Individual living non-affrican 6218 01:47:10,470 --> 01:47:10,480 Neanderl. Individual living non-affrican 6219 01:47:10,480 --> 01:47:13,270 Neanderl. Individual living non-affrican humans typically carry around 1 to 2% 6220 01:47:13,270 --> 01:47:13,280 humans typically carry around 1 to 2% 6221 01:47:13,280 --> 01:47:15,669 humans typically carry around 1 to 2% Neandertol ancestry. Across the full 6222 01:47:15,669 --> 01:47:15,679 Neandertol ancestry. Across the full 6223 01:47:15,679 --> 01:47:17,590 Neandertol ancestry. Across the full modern human population, different 6224 01:47:17,590 --> 01:47:17,600 modern human population, different 6225 01:47:17,600 --> 01:47:19,669 modern human population, different people carry different Neanderl derived 6226 01:47:19,669 --> 01:47:19,679 people carry different Neanderl derived 6227 01:47:19,679 --> 01:47:21,910 people carry different Neanderl derived DNA segments. Pooling those segments 6228 01:47:21,910 --> 01:47:21,920 DNA segments. Pooling those segments 6229 01:47:21,920 --> 01:47:24,470 DNA segments. Pooling those segments together, you can recover roughly 20% of 6230 01:47:24,470 --> 01:47:24,480 together, you can recover roughly 20% of 6231 01:47:24,480 --> 01:47:26,870 together, you can recover roughly 20% of the Neanderl genome in aggregate. That 6232 01:47:26,870 --> 01:47:26,880 the Neanderl genome in aggregate. That 6233 01:47:26,880 --> 01:47:28,550 the Neanderl genome in aggregate. That doesn't mean any person walking around 6234 01:47:28,550 --> 01:47:28,560 doesn't mean any person walking around 6235 01:47:28,560 --> 01:47:31,270 doesn't mean any person walking around today is 20% Neanderl. It means the 6236 01:47:31,270 --> 01:47:31,280 today is 20% Neanderl. It means the 6237 01:47:31,280 --> 01:47:33,750 today is 20% Neanderl. It means the surviving Neanderl fragments are spread 6238 01:47:33,750 --> 01:47:33,760 surviving Neanderl fragments are spread 6239 01:47:33,760 --> 01:47:36,070 surviving Neanderl fragments are spread around across millions of people because 6240 01:47:36,070 --> 01:47:36,080 around across millions of people because 6241 01:47:36,080 --> 01:47:37,990 around across millions of people because introgression does not distribute every 6242 01:47:37,990 --> 01:47:38,000 introgression does not distribute every 6243 01:47:38,000 --> 01:47:39,830 introgression does not distribute every inherited segment equally to every 6244 01:47:39,830 --> 01:47:39,840 inherited segment equally to every 6245 01:47:39,840 --> 01:47:41,189 inherited segment equally to every descendant population. 6246 01:47:41,189 --> 01:47:41,199 descendant population. 6247 01:47:41,199 --> 01:47:44,550 descendant population. >> The the whole history of humans is weird 6248 01:47:44,550 --> 01:47:44,560 >> The the whole history of humans is weird 6249 01:47:44,560 --> 01:47:47,350 >> The the whole history of humans is weird and for academics to deny this 6250 01:47:47,350 --> 01:47:47,360 and for academics to deny this 6251 01:47:47,360 --> 01:47:49,750 and for academics to deny this possibility to me seems so shortsighted. 6252 01:47:49,750 --> 01:47:49,760 possibility to me seems so shortsighted. 6253 01:47:49,760 --> 01:47:51,830 possibility to me seems so shortsighted. >> I know it will change silly.

All the precision tells you is that people who made these objects 6702 01:55:22,629 --> 01:55:22,639 is that people who made these objects 6703 01:55:22,639 --> 01:55:24,470 is that people who made these objects were really good at making them, nothing 6704 01:55:24,470 --> 01:55:24,480 were really good at making them, nothing 6705 01:55:24,480 --> 01:55:24,950 were really good at making them, nothing more. 6706 01:55:24,950 --> 01:55:24,960 more. 6707 01:55:24,960 --> 01:55:26,870 more. >> Like one point people always make in 6708 01:55:26,870 --> 01:55:26,880 >> Like one point people always make in 6709 01:55:26,880 --> 01:55:28,310 >> Like one point people always make in like my comments and stuff to try and 6710 01:55:28,310 --> 01:55:28,320 like my comments and stuff to try and 6711 01:55:28,320 --> 01:55:30,709 like my comments and stuff to try and debunk me is like, oh, we would see 6712 01:55:30,709 --> 01:55:30,719 debunk me is like, oh, we would see 6713 01:55:30,719 --> 01:55:32,950 debunk me is like, oh, we would see pollution. We would see kind of lead 6714 01:55:32,950 --> 01:55:32,960 pollution. We would see kind of lead 6715 01:55:32,960 --> 01:55:34,629 pollution. We would see kind of lead signals in the atmosphere or whatever if 6716 01:55:34,629 --> 01:55:34,639 signals in the atmosphere or whatever if 6717 01:55:34,639 --> 01:55:37,270 signals in the atmosphere or whatever if there was like a a big civilization 6718 01:55:37,270 --> 01:55:37,280 there was like a a big civilization 6719 01:55:37,280 --> 01:55:40,070 there was like a a big civilization 100,000 years ago. But that's only the 6720 01:55:40,070 --> 01:55:40,080 100,000 years ago. But that's only the 6721 01:55:40,080 --> 01:55:42,070 100,000 years ago. But that's only the case if it was someone on the scale of 6722 01:55:42,070 --> 01:55:42,080 case if it was someone on the scale of 6723 01:55:42,080 --> 01:55:43,750 case if it was someone on the scale of us now because 6724 01:55:43,750 --> 01:55:43,760 us now because 6725 01:55:43,760 --> 01:55:45,589 us now because >> or if they were doing it the way we're 6726 01:55:45,589 --> 01:55:45,599 >> or if they were doing it the way we're 6727 01:55:45,599 --> 01:55:47,270 >> or if they were doing it the way we're doing it. That's the thing where we're 6728 01:55:47,270 --> 01:55:47,280 doing it. That's the thing where we're 6729 01:55:47,280 --> 01:55:48,870 doing it. That's the thing where we're talking about a completely different 6730 01:55:48,870 --> 01:55:48,880 talking about a completely different 6731 01:55:48,880 --> 01:55:52,870 talking about a completely different pathway. Clearly there's some technology 6732 01:55:52,870 --> 01:55:52,880 pathway. Clearly there's some technology 6733 01:55:52,880 --> 01:55:55,669 pathway. Clearly there's some technology that they had that we don't understand. 6734 01:55:55,669 --> 01:55:55,679 that they had that we don't understand. 6735 01:55:55,679 --> 01:55:57,990 that they had that we don't understand. When you talk about the drill holes that 6736 01:55:57,990 --> 01:55:58,000 When you talk about the drill holes that 6737 01:55:58,000 --> 01:56:00,470 When you talk about the drill holes that they find or the way they had carved out 6738 01:56:00,470 --> 01:56:00,480 they find or the way they had carved out 6739 01:56:00,480 --> 01:56:02,390 they find or the way they had carved out these enormous 6740 01:56:02,390 --> 01:56:02,400 these enormous 6741 01:56:02,400 --> 01:56:06,390 these enormous um massive chunks of stone, we don't 6742 01:56:06,390 --> 01:56:06,400 um massive chunks of stone, we don't 6743 01:56:06,400 --> 01:56:08,709 um massive chunks of stone, we don't know the things that we totally know 6744 01:56:08,709 --> 01:56:08,719 know the things that we totally know 6745 01:56:08,719 --> 01:56:11,270 know the things that we totally know always every time. I covered the 6746 01:56:11,270 --> 01:56:11,280 always every time. I covered the 6747 01:56:11,280 --> 01:56:12,950 always every time.

We've talked about this in multiple videos. 6928 01:59:24,470 --> 01:59:24,480 talked about this in multiple videos. 6929 01:59:24,480 --> 01:59:26,709 talked about this in multiple videos. Clovis first was an established model 6930 01:59:26,709 --> 01:59:26,719 Clovis first was an established model 6931 01:59:26,719 --> 01:59:28,629 Clovis first was an established model that was challenged with new evidence. 6932 01:59:28,629 --> 01:59:28,639 that was challenged with new evidence. 6933 01:59:28,639 --> 01:59:31,030 that was challenged with new evidence. That evidence was scrutinized, debated, 6934 01:59:31,030 --> 01:59:31,040 That evidence was scrutinized, debated, 6935 01:59:31,040 --> 01:59:33,109 That evidence was scrutinized, debated, tested independently, and subsequently 6936 01:59:33,109 --> 01:59:33,119 tested independently, and subsequently 6937 01:59:33,119 --> 01:59:36,310 tested independently, and subsequently held up all by archaeologists. The model 6938 01:59:36,310 --> 01:59:36,320 held up all by archaeologists. The model 6939 01:59:36,320 --> 01:59:38,950 held up all by archaeologists. The model was then revised. Clovis first changed 6940 01:59:38,950 --> 01:59:38,960 was then revised. Clovis first changed 6941 01:59:38,960 --> 01:59:40,470 was then revised. Clovis first changed because the pre-Clovis case had 6942 01:59:40,470 --> 01:59:40,480 because the pre-Clovis case had 6943 01:59:40,480 --> 01:59:42,709 because the pre-Clovis case had stratified sites, dated footprints, 6944 01:59:42,709 --> 01:59:42,719 stratified sites, dated footprints, 6945 01:59:42,719 --> 01:59:44,629 stratified sites, dated footprints, lithics, and repeated independent 6946 01:59:44,629 --> 01:59:44,639 lithics, and repeated independent 6947 01:59:44,639 --> 01:59:46,950 lithics, and repeated independent verification. You are simply proving 6948 01:59:46,950 --> 01:59:46,960 verification. You are simply proving 6949 01:59:46,960 --> 01:59:49,109 verification. You are simply proving your entire mantra wrong by 6950 01:59:49,109 --> 01:59:49,119 your entire mantra wrong by 6951 01:59:49,119 --> 01:59:51,109 your entire mantra wrong by acknowledging that academics update 6952 01:59:51,109 --> 01:59:51,119 acknowledging that academics update 6953 01:59:51,119 --> 01:59:53,109 acknowledging that academics update their understanding when new evidence 6954 01:59:53,109 --> 01:59:53,119 their understanding when new evidence 6955 01:59:53,119 --> 01:59:55,910 their understanding when new evidence arises. And absolutely nobody was 6956 01:59:55,910 --> 01:59:55,920 arises. And absolutely nobody was 6957 01:59:55,920 --> 01:59:58,629 arises. And absolutely nobody was destroyed at all.

Button distorts their work and pretends that academics 7170 02:03:28,229 --> 02:03:28,239 their work and pretends that academics 7171 02:03:28,239 --> 02:03:29,990 their work and pretends that academics have genuinely proposed something that 7172 02:03:29,990 --> 02:03:30,000 have genuinely proposed something that 7173 02:03:30,000 --> 02:03:31,990 have genuinely proposed something that supports his [\h__\h] So, their idea is 7174 02:03:31,990 --> 02:03:32,000 supports his [\h__\h] So, their idea is 7175 02:03:32,000 --> 02:03:33,510 supports his [\h__\h] So, their idea is kind of like, well, what what if, you 7176 02:03:33,510 --> 02:03:33,520 kind of like, well, what what if, you 7177 02:03:33,520 --> 02:03:36,070 kind of like, well, what what if, you know, a civilization in the kind of era 7178 02:03:36,070 --> 02:03:36,080 know, a civilization in the kind of era 7179 02:03:36,080 --> 02:03:38,870 know, a civilization in the kind of era of the dinosaurs had, you know, become 7180 02:03:38,870 --> 02:03:38,880 of the dinosaurs had, you know, become 7181 02:03:38,880 --> 02:03:40,950 of the dinosaurs had, you know, become very advanced and an industrial society. 7182 02:03:40,950 --> 02:03:40,960 very advanced and an industrial society. 7183 02:03:40,960 --> 02:03:43,669 very advanced and an industrial society. And they say we would see absolutely no 7184 02:03:43,669 --> 02:03:43,679 And they say we would see absolutely no 7185 02:03:43,679 --> 02:03:45,990 And they say we would see absolutely no evidence. Like when I'm talking about 7186 02:03:45,990 --> 02:03:46,000 evidence. Like when I'm talking about 7187 02:03:46,000 --> 02:03:47,910 evidence. Like when I'm talking about human civilization, we would see some 7188 02:03:47,910 --> 02:03:47,920 human civilization, we would see some 7189 02:03:47,920 --> 02:03:50,070 human civilization, we would see some potential evidence like you know rock 7190 02:03:50,070 --> 02:03:50,080 potential evidence like you know rock 7191 02:03:50,080 --> 02:03:51,589 potential evidence like you know rock carve stone or whatever. But they would 7192 02:03:51,589 --> 02:03:51,599 carve stone or whatever. But they would 7193 02:03:51,599 --> 02:03:52,950 carve stone or whatever. But they would say you wouldn't even see the nuclear 7194 02:03:52,950 --> 02:03:52,960 say you wouldn't even see the nuclear 7195 02:03:52,960 --> 02:03:54,629 say you wouldn't even see the nuclear waste deposits cuz it's that long ago 7196 02:03:54,629 --> 02:03:54,639 waste deposits cuz it's that long ago 7197 02:03:54,639 --> 02:03:56,310 waste deposits cuz it's that long ago that nothing would survive. And then I 7198 02:03:56,310 --> 02:03:56,320 that nothing would survive. And then I 7199 02:03:56,320 --> 02:03:58,070 that nothing would survive. And then I think about that and I think well isn't 7200 02:03:58,070 --> 02:03:58,080 think about that and I think well isn't 7201 02:03:58,080 --> 02:03:59,589 think about that and I think well isn't it almost more likely that something did 7202 02:03:59,589 --> 02:03:59,599 it almost more likely that something did 7203 02:03:59,599 --> 02:04:00,870 it almost more likely that something did happen considering we know that 7204 02:04:00,870 --> 02:04:00,880 happen considering we know that 7205 02:04:00,880 --> 02:04:02,870 happen considering we know that intelligence can emerge relatively 7206 02:04:02,870 --> 02:04:02,880 intelligence can emerge relatively 7207 02:04:02,880 --> 02:04:04,629 intelligence can emerge relatively quickly. Multisellular life has been on 7208 02:04:04,629 --> 02:04:04,639 quickly. Multisellular life has been on 7209 02:04:04,639 --> 02:04:07,830 quickly. Multisellular life has been on the planet for so so so so so long. 7210 02:04:07,830 --> 02:04:07,840 the planet for so so so so so long. 7211 02:04:07,840 --> 02:04:09,350 the planet for so so so so so long. >> A limited understanding of the fossil 7212 02:04:09,350 --> 02:04:09,360 >> A limited understanding of the fossil 7213 02:04:09,360 --> 02:04:09,830 >> A limited understanding of the fossil record. 7214 02:04:09,830 --> 02:04:09,840 record. 7215 02:04:09,840 --> 02:04:12,070 record. >> Exactly.

At 7335 02:06:09,679 --> 02:06:11,350 people wake up and smell the roses. At least not beyond making content like 7336 02:06:11,350 --> 02:06:11,360 least not beyond making content like 7337 02:06:11,360 --> 02:06:13,270 least not beyond making content like this. So hopefully a few Button fans 7338 02:06:13,270 --> 02:06:13,280 this. So hopefully a few Button fans 7339 02:06:13,280 --> 02:06:14,790 this.
