7 Times Ancient People Discovered Even Older Artifacts

[@amaliapursell]

Michelangelo was present when the famous ancient statue called Laocoon was unearthed in Rome.

As a theology student well in an old library I came across a manuscript that told a story about a mesopotamian king who neglected his duties because he was obsessed with digging up ancent sites covered by the deluge. I didn't note the reference because it wasn't what I was working on. I regret not recording that info for future reference.

Yes. King Nabonidus. His son Belshazzar ruled instead of him. And his daughter Ennigaldi-Nanna was curator of first known museum.

Collecting ancient artifacts are illegal for the average citizen, however the Smithsonian can confiscate them and we never see ourhistory again.

Love your channel bro!

[@PoopyArchaeology]

Thank you!!

[@pittbullking87]

While working at Cline Terrace Mound (1400 AD) in central AZ one young lady on the crew found a Clovis Point from around 12000 years ago. While working on the Angola Plantation site in Louisiana one guy found a small, ground stone ax made by Native Americans. We found no other Native American artifacts on that site so someone found it in the 1800's then it was lost again until we found it. I have found projectile points on a late 19th and early 20th C farm house site in Mississippi. I have also been to the Trier Cathedral in Trier, Germany where the alleged robe of Jesus is stored. It was once St. Helena's palace before being turned into a church.

Lol hey Ryan it’s good to hear from you man, hope everything’s well, miss the csulb days!

[@myeyeswentdeaf6213]

I imagine ancient people would’ve been more curious about the past, wondering where they came from, wtf it is they’re supposed to be doing here and why…ya know, the same thing we wonder about today, only they had less answers.

I like how ancient Egyptians found dinosaur bones 😊

Hey im Matt and im an archaeologist in Arkansas, I think if your interested in Pacific archaeology you should look at nan madol and the chatnam islands, if possible I would love to help you with some of your videos

[@PoopyArchaeology]

Hey Matt good to meet you! Thanks for reaching out, I'd like to do some videos on Mississippian sites one day, it would be good to talk then since that's in your backyard! Till then I'll check out some of the sites you mention, I'm on the Nan Madol wikipedia page right now, thanks again

What is your take on the possibility of pre-Clovis civilization in the United States?

[@PoopyArchaeology]

I'm glad you asked! My understanding is that there were definitely people in the Americas before the Clovis culture (13-11,000 BP), but how much earlier is uncertain. I'm pretty comfortable saying that humans have been in North America for close to 20,000 years. Beyond that things get a little wild, like the mastodon site in San Diego dated to 130,000 BP en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerutti_Mastodon_site - personally I'm not convinced by the evidence there. Still pretty fun to think about though!

[@PoopyArchaeology]

A major update to this comment - evidence for human presence in America at 21,000 BP! www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/fossil-footprints-show-humans-north-america-21000-years-ago-rcna2169?cid=sm_npd_nn_fb_ma&fbclid=IwAR2nWIWpn83b05yKxR6BwIbrmLG8IF_Uz_CRnV8JyCpirtUfeqfBJobNHy8

[@HumanBeing1974]

​@PoopyArchaeology Yes. Here in Texas at the Arlington University Powwow they still sing and dance the Hunting Song of the Mastodon. Native American Tribal Elders still talk about how civilizations have come and gone at least 4 times . It's very healthy to keep an open mind because none of us knows it all. Otherwise we are setting ourselves up for failure.

Xenophon and the Greek 10,000 making their way home after kicking A in Persia AND coming upon ancient Nimrud and Nineveh WHICH was thousand`s of years older then them. Though they had to keep moving and could not linger long at the grand ruins.

"There's nothing new under the sun.That which was before shall be again"!!! Even scientist are actually getting fed up with the "theory" of evolution... I suggest to the reader to get a copy of the biography of Charles Darwin.... The guy was unwell, to say the least....

[@erikredIV]

Thumbs down for the ridiculous use of CE and BCE which ironically is a denial of history.
