(Not So) Deep Sh*t on Lost Ancient Civilizations and Cataclysms
Manage episode 346392016 series 3413518
What if there was a lost ancient civilization that existed BEFORE what is generally accepted as the timeline for the start of our civilization but was wiped out in a global cataclysm? And what if what we've all been taught is the start of civilization (some 5,000 years ago) was actually the re-start of civilization by the survivors of that global cataclysm?
Chris & Steve kick around this very intriguing theory that's proposed by author Graham Hancock in his various books ("Fingerprints of the Gods", "Magicians of the Gods", and "America Before"), to see if it has any merit.
Why did "civilization" seem to appear so late in relation to how long modern humans have existed and were capable of creating one? What myths about a global cataclysm that happened long ago exist in virtually every culture and could there be some truth to it? How does ancient Egypt, the Amazon Rainforest, the Library of Alexandria, and a map made by a Turkish admiral in 1513 factor into all of this?
Chris & Steve discuss all this and more, including why is there resistance to the idea of a global cataclysm? And could OUR civilization be the victim of one of these global cataclysms in the near future?
Buckle your seatbelts, keep your arms inside the vehicle at all times, and hang on, because this is going to be a fun ride!
