Surprisingly many people may not know but the Schliemann layer also exists as the tenth layer of hell. Because when he was sent there he accidentally used too much dynamite and ended making his own level where he now stays forever.

...it's due to the _Schliemalaise_ associated with the man's killegacy...

Depends on what we mean when we say ''aliens''. I would rather refer to them as human ''neighbours'' from another continent (beyond forbidden 60th parallel) than creatures from the skies. There's something off with our timeline and all the architecture left behind after the 1890 reset. There is NO WAY the 19th century cart and horse people could have built hundreds of thousands of those colossal capitols and ''Victorian'' buildings and cathedrals at the stage of technological development they were in. Strangely enough, every major city on mother earth has been burnt to the ground in absurd ''great Fires'' and reconstructed within a few years. Totally impossible even nowadays. Any serious study of the official narrative screams utter BS.

He debunked it by calling it racist. Dont call yourself a history buff if thats enough for you. Im not saying it was aliens, but there is obviously lost technology. We werent cutting tons of granite with mm precision by grinding rocks

And yeah, he perpetuates dumb theories like a black cheddar man

​@RenoLaringo if all your houses are simple and made of timber and pitch with no planning or regulations on what you make, I imagine it would both be a lot easier to burn everything down and to build it back up than nowadays. Id wager that might be a bit more likely than aliens from Antarctica doing it (for what reason?!). Literally some common sense and a quick Google search debunks your arguments lol

@@RenoLaringothis is either really funny satire or you are genuinely incapable of processing anything outside of what you interact with day to day in a small sheltered existence

Yes, that makes a lot of sense for several reasons. Painting has always been a process of adding a multitude of layers. Why would they approach statues differently? Furthermore, in ye olden days nobody really understood how light and shadow works. So they might have added shadows to their statues (at least the ambient occlusion). Also, they would have been more than capable of depicting patterns, fabric, and other texture. Why would they omit that? And finally: carving such a statue is an immensely time consuming undertaking. Why would anyone, after such a lengthy process, just slap a bunch of colors on the thing and call it a day? I wouldn't be surprised if they took the same amount of time---if not more---painting a statue than carving it. These things were probably incredibly life-like. Given that, I'd assume there has been way more than just one female statue acquiring "the Stain".

Exactly. Time really is just a number. 10 years when you're 10 years old feels like a lifetime, that because it literally is in this relative analogy. 10 years after you're 20 feels like nothing. Just because it seems like forever ago doesn't mean it really was.

It gets even worse when you consider all of prehistory and how little is actually represented by the fossil record

Really makes one wonder how future historians and archeologists will view out era. We've now given a recording device to almost every single human on the planet. Either future historians will either be completed inundated with info about the modern era, so much so that sifting through the bias would be a herculean task, or they'll have only vague summaries because digital recording isn't nearly as reliable as it seems.

Mfw no more research can be done without a time machine due to lost, corrupted and destroyed information. Paleontology shares the same issue, if not to a greater degree - a billion years of evolution, all those unique living things - not only extinct, but often without leaving fossils. So much has been lost, but we should still be happy with what we could salvage...

I feel this comes in some part because "they believed in weird myths!" but the thing is, if you're born in a time before widespread communication or scientific method, literally what could you believe in? Imagine trying to learn the world without Google, you wouldn't know jack. People don't think that much about history, but it's a genuine wonder we've been able to progress this far and get so connected.

It's not that they lack intelligence, it's that they have less information available to them. How does someone figure out how to lift like 10 ton slabs of rock and place it on top of stonehenge? I can't figure it out, and if you gave me 100 years I'd still never figure it out. I couldn't even make it on my own if you told me exactly how. The only reason why people don't have the same problem accepting marvels of engineering invented over a 100 years ago, like the light bulb or telephone, is because it was recent enough that we have very detailed historical records on how it was done.

@@AshleyWilliamsN7 true

Similar to the walking Moai, the Welsh found clever ways to transport and construct Stonehenge. And I mention that because when the Romans came through and found Stonehenge, they asked the locals what advanced civilization had come there before and built it.

Were you just born last week or something? I guess my hope was too high that this was common knowledge. I apologize.

The next layer of THAT iceberg is that many animals are way more intelligent than we give them credit for. Corvids are smarter than we used to think cavemen were. Chimps engage in commerce and fashion of an extremely limited sort, and we knew for a while already that they can learn sign language. It's arguable that elephants follow an animistic pre-religion. Many animals are past the line many of us draw for personhood, so are they people? Or will we move the goalposts to, say, "must be hominid" or "must exhibit ubiquitous tool use?" Because basically all apes meet those. Tool manufacture? That depends on what you consider manufacture, and corvids will modify objects too, albeit not physically capable of things like flint knapping.

So there is a funny story behind the viking graffiti on the Hagia Sophia. Apparently the people who studied the Sophia didn't know it was Runes until, now don't quote me on this I could be wrong, the advent of the internet. The story I remember is that they thought it was some sort of forgotten form of mesopotamian or mediterainian language until a chance meeting with a archeologist of scandinavia mentioned it was runes offhandedly. It turned out there were a couple of such bits of graffiti on the temple.

@@PenumbranWolf I find that hard to believe that people working on studying the Hagia Sophia in the time of the early internet didn't know about the Varangian guard. The Byzantine emperors employed Scandinavians that had gone a-Viking, travelling south mostly via rivers, and ended up in Greece being paid handsomely as a personal elite imperial guard for quite a while. I could be wrong. This knowledge might have been lost to the people living and working in Istanbul at some point, but them not knowing this by the early to mid-nineties and calling it some lost Mesopotamian script seems to me more like something an overly enthusiastic but ill-informed tour guide would tell tourists.

@@anna_in_aotearoa3166 I don't think the authors were intentionally trying to bury the truth. The trouble is that Schliemann was such a flamboyant character, and he actively tried to bury Calvert's involvement in the discovery of Troy... like, he completely omitted Calvert's role from his diaries, and made it seem like the discovery was all his, so he got all the glory. I think his skullduggery was eclipsed by the awesomeness of his find, and the fact that he was a great self-promoter.

there's written accounts of greek authors describing paintings and painters of their time, suggesting it was as lifelike as their sculptures (the coffin paintings shown in the video would likely come from the greek tradition, since they date to roman egypt, where there'd been a lot of cultural hellenization). There's practically no surviving examples of canvas paintings from that era, though, since in most conditions (other than being buried in desert sand) neither tempera paint nor canvas are particularly long-lived materials in the scale of time we're working with.

there are some frescoes that survive to the present day which exhibit amazing technique. i know there are early classical italic paintings in campania and a decent number of hellenistic paintings throughout the old greek world, but the best are from the early 1st c. bc in pompeii and herculaneum.

It was preserved very well because they're from Egypt. I think it was painted on Papyrus. If you look at ancient roman mosaics, some of those are also well done, so the idea of them painting a human face early reconnaissance level isn't unthinkable due to art skills. Certainly is awesome.

In Japanese, sweet potato is called Imo Jaga. Does that mean they also contribute the name of Sweet Potato? In other news, Javanese folks called Sweet Potato Telā and we know that some Dutch Archeologist agreed that Polynesian branched from the people of Greater and Lesser Sunda's Archipelago. So, Telā rules Pacific Ocean.

@@wikansaktianto9215 many things go by the name "sweet potato," many of them not even closely related to each other. And many of them are now found in Polynesia; The first is the one originating from South America (With orange skin and white flesh)and is where the name Kumara/ʻUala originates and is the first sweet potato to arrive in Polynesia. Ironically, I'd say this variant has been usurped by other sweet potatoes in popularity where I live. The purple yam (Ube) (with purple skin and flesh) is very popular in Japan, Korea, and Hawaiʻi; it's known that these types of sweet potatoes were one of the many other canoe plants brought to Polynesia, though I haven't been able to find anything that confirms whether nor if their native Polynesian name is telā (At least not in Hawaiian). The Okinawan Purple Sweet Potato (Beni Imo) (With white skin and purple flesh) originates from well... Okinawa and is arguably the most popular variant in Hawaiʻi (and my personal favorite to work with great for making sweet potato pudding.) and are also called 'Uala. The Murasaki Sweet Potato (Satsumaimo) (With purple skin and yellow flesh) also originates from Japan and is very popular. The Sweet Yam (Sometimes also called a sweet potato) is another variant brought to Polynesia pre-European contact and is called Uhi in Hawaiian and Ufi in Sāmoan. There's probably more, but those are the only ones I remember (and can back confidently with information.) Some such as the Okinawan and Murasaki sweet potato were introduced post-European contact and are thus just have had the label of "ʻUala" attached to them, at least in Hawaiʻi.

@@JrgPt96 there was another one of these books that was decoded into an extensive woman's health, medicine, and biology encyclopedia. can't remember what it whas called, though

To be honest I had no idea either until editing. Apparently it was a later addition by a later pharaoh and not in the original construct.

@@TREYtheExplainer interesting, thank you though. Helps to know that I'm not the only one that didn't know.

actually the spHinx was Anubis..was stuck down by lightning and the chest became the head of kufu who attempted to reconstruction..the story is on the Stella,,sheesh

"We are letting legendary Phidias carve the Parthenon for us, it will be known throughout the world for it's genius!" "Aye sir, and who should we have paint it afterwards?" "Eh, some sugar hyped five year olds."

I agree, they looked a lot more beautiful and elegant without paint, imo.

they probably dont have enough data to know the finer details, only the basic colors

Truuuuueeee

​@@anarchy_79 Lol Nonetheless... friendly reminder that "sugar rush" doesn't really exist, that's just American folklore.
