As a geotech, i regularly work alongside archaeologists. Anecdotally, in my real life, archaeologists who study the americas are consistently open minded and fascinated with ideas about ancient tech and ancient civilizations. The few "academic archaeologists" who get trotted around really give a bad name to the profession.

In my experience most archaeologists are way more open minded than the handful that have been making the podcast rounds lately.

@@LUM-kb2rl Jesus, people will believe anything without actually looking into both sides. Dibble did great, watch his videos on it if you actually care about history/archeology/truth. Graham attacks dibbles character, dibble attacks his theories. Id say its easy to tell whos in the wrong. If you only care about the fact that he made graham look slow in the debate, then you will never change your mind. Have a good day

[@LUM-kb2rl]

@@daltonreed7939 I fr could not agree less. First of all Im not exclusively talking about Dibble, but also Miniminuteman and a few others. Second, on the topic of Dibble and Hancock, it seems like you have the roles reversed. Dibble called Hancock some pretty severe things and we both know what those are. Conversely, Hancock has since put out a video showing that some of the statistics that Dibble presented were highly exaggerated and factually false. So I would say that one side used personal attacks and said highly defamatory things in a very public way that we both know about, whereas the other side has presented evidence that Dibble hugely exaggerated, and frankly falsified the estimate for the number of archaeological finds that support his position. The source that Dibble presented directly contradicted the number of surveyed shipwrecks that Dibble claimed. This was one small part of Hancocks rebuttal, but it represents that Dibble will misrepresent data to endorse his views.

One thing that made me respect Dr. Barnhart is that he is a true archaeologist, but was willing to appear on Graham Hancock's season two of "Ancient Apocalypse" and had a respectful, educational conversation with him. Hancock mentioned on a podcast that Dr. Barnhart doesn't agree with a lot of his ideas, but is willing to listen, have an open mind, and disagree respectfully and not engage in slurs and ad hominum attacks.

[@daltonreed7939]

@@garylewis4398 like the attacks levied towards dibble from millions or thousands of people after Graham and Joe called him a liar? Dibble never lied or attacked grahams character, only his work. Graham can not make that same statement. Have a good day, love

[@AnyoneCanSee]

Joe Rogan had "Debunking", on his podcast a man who has videos on his channel falsely accusing Dibble of teaching with "illegal to own native American bones." There is a video of Debunking and Hancock name-calling everyone who has ever dared disagree with Hancock. The Ad Hominims, slurs and constant abuse have been coming from Hancock for 30 years. Dibble didn't call Hancokcma racist as Hancock claimed. Hancockm brought up an article Dibble wrote in an academic magazine which correctly states that Hancock took his theory of white Atlantians spreading knowledge to natives around the world from Victorian white colonialists who came up with the theory based on their white supremacist ideas. The article does NOT call Hancock a white supremacist it states in an academic article where Hancock took his theory. Hancock seized on that article read by only academics and spread it to millions, so he can continue to play the victim. He did it on Joe Rogan to try and discredit Dibble and Hancock has brought it up dozens of times and acts like he was outright called racist. This has led to constant attacks and people phoning Dibble's work abusing him and other staff and demanding they fire him. And you wonder why most archaeologists want nothing to do with these toxic conspiracy nuts. They are currently lying about Göbekli Tepe stopping and the archaeologists on that site are getting the same abuse from low information conspiracy nuts.

I love Dr. Barnhart! I first became aware of Ed when watching The Great Courses. During his lectures he said something I will never forget (though I may be paraphrasing here...) "The Hopi say they came from Palenque. Now, I'm not SAYING, I'm just saying..." This statement purveyed to me that Dr. Barnhart is a classicly trained archaeologist that respects and takes into account indigenous peoples oral history. He is a unique individual in the American archaeological disciplines. And, when I discovered Luke Caverns, and found that his mentor is Dr. Barnhart, I had immediate respect for Luke. I mean, Luke's presentations garner their own well deserved respect, but the fact that Dr. Barnhart is Luke's mentor really cemented Luke's reputation for me! And, Dr. Barnharts lectures are what sparked the interest in ancient history in my sons and led them both to pursue Archaeology. I'm a single father, financing my sons degrees so they don't have to begin their lives in debt (which unfortunately has become the American Way nowadays,) but I hope someday that my boys and I can go on a tour of Mesoamerica with Dr. Barnhart and MEC!

[@amyk6403]

1:17:56 I agree on the corn farming, in general. The thing about corn farming is that it's nutritionally useless unless the corn is dried and ground with lime. A process called Nixtamel (sp?) [the x is pronounced sh] in mesoamerica. This process increases the protein content of the food. Even then, additional protein would be necessary. If they just relied on "corn," they would have starved to death. [Compliments of my BA in History, where I concentrated on the Conquest/Colonial Eras in Latin America. I knew this degree would become useful at some point! 😊]

These mountains - especially those to the north, had to have been built before the last ice age! Very old so difficult to uncover.

Even had there been pyramids in Canada before the last ice age it means they would have been under 2 1/2 miles of ice for 90,000 years. Anything before the ice would be completely gone to the human eye.

Here in the Detroit area we had several very large mounds that were venerated by the local Anishinaabeg. By the time the war of 1812 had came to the area they were already severely damaged from settlers and other pillagers looking for artifacts as souvenirs. They had even found some very interesting pottery that was quite unique to the area now known as “Wayne Ware”. Just a shame that what were once mountainous mounds have been reduced to mere inclines no more than knee height, and that’s assuming anything remains at all from modern development. I can only imagine what could’ve been learned if we had only respected the Anishinaabeg and their ways of life rather than ushering in their near annihilation. Anyways, great episode and would love to see these fellas back in the future. 👍

[@mariangrimsdell1112]

Anishinaabeg sounds very much like old Gaelic to me. I grew up in Ireland 🇮🇪 in the 1950’s and it was mandatory to learn Gaelic at primary school. Perhaps Saint Brendan made it to America after all 😂

@ It’s the traditional name of the indigenous Native American tribes who inhabited the area before colonialism began so it’s unlikely anyone from there made it to here to give them that name lol.

I got back into all this ancient civilisations stuff because of Nerdrotic's Forbidden Frontier. I used to love as a kid all the 'woo', then I lost interest and got into music & film. When FF started in Nov 2022 I got hooked into the good natured conversation with Gary, QBG, Adam Crigler & XRay Girl. They had Luke on and you could see he was going to be a star. I had heard JREs Graham Hancock podcasts back in 2019 when I found JRE but never pursued it. Maybe circumstance and good natured conversation led me back to all this. I am now all over any podcast on the 'woo' and especially love the ancient civs one. Luke has a great evolving channel & his Raiders of the Past with Jahannah James is terrific (and deserves way more views). This was by far the best podcast Danny has done. Ed is such a charming, knowledgeable man & Luke is really coming into his own. Ed is the kind of man who gets that people can read & watch Graham & Randall & still listen to him and still take a great deal away and make their own decisions. I think he recognises that Archaeology needs lots of engaged people looking for the truth even if they come from different directions. Enjoyed this so much, I am going to have to listen again.

You've just shown a complete lack of basic understanding of the topic to the point its laughable your even talking on it - you do realise how many people can read Greek right? Including Flint. Ancient greek is extremely similar to modern greek which 13million people read. They don't need an intrepration like Egyptian hieroglyphics it's a language people know. What exactly are you expecting to change in the translation that changes the fact it was a piece of fiction written by a writer? Nothing changes. 😂 You didn't realise so many people can read the original text when you said the translations were wrong did you? No because it was convenient for him to lie to you.

Right on I've seen both of these guys on different stuff lately. The one guy was just in season 2 of Ancient Apocalypse with Graham Hancock and the other guy just did a podcast with Jahanna James.

[@bvalt1]

Graham Hancock has inspired millions to question the standard stories we have been told, and to actually become archeologists and researchers, etc... just as Star Trek inspired the inventions of our modern world. His involvement and research are invaluable to archeology, whether or not they want to give him any credit, and just disparage his efforts as Pseudo-science, when he never claims to be a scientist, they owe him a debt of gratitude. Much of their funding will eventually come from people who have read his works!!

[@uguptuzirby8451]

I just realized that if so much of it is unexplored, there IS a chance to find more codexes and restore some of their knowledge

[@primafacie5029]

Great stuff!!!

[@seasideshutterworx]

Wow! Fantastic interview! Thank you

[@hisatsinommonistasih6052]

Ok, With all due respect here...I'm not an archeologist . However, I've done a fair share of reading and research into the Oral History of the Native Americans. They have been here WAY LONGER than 30,000 or 50,000 years. Mainstream archeology is well known to suppress evidence that doesn't fit the established academic theories. They are indeed, theories. If you just look into TWO groups - the Hopi and the Zuni - they will tell you EXACTLY where they came from. The Grand Canyon. It was not from the Bering Strait. There is also knowledge of "The Creator" creating the four different "races" Red, Black , White, and Yellow. As far as how long ago this occurred.... Well the Hopi have knowledge that extends very far into the distant past. They tell of 4 "Worlds" 3 that were destroyed by major cataclysmic events. Fire, Water, Ice. So extremely ancient- volcanic perhaps , the great "flood" and the Ice age. They also talk about their migration. The swastika is a Hopi symbol. The center of which represents the current site of the Hopi Mesas in Arizona just 90 miles from their "place of emergence" the branches of the swastika represent their migration to all four corners - the full extent of the North & South American Continent. They tell of certain clans that migrated North- all the way into the arctic where they couldn't go any further because of the ice. This is the OPPOSITE of the "Land Bridge" theory. They also talk about traveling to the tip of South America. They DO have stories of clans arriving on "boats" made of grass reeds. They have found reeds of grass in the Hopi territory that are native to Peru. They do still build rafts from these grasses in Peru. The Hopi also had knowledge of Dinosaurs. That humans and dinosaurs did in fact coexist. I spoke with a Hopi elder about this on a private guided tour when I visited the Hopi Reservation. There are petroglyphs of Dinosaurs in America, Africa that I know of for sure. Of course there are also depictions of Dinosaurs - Stegosaurus at Angkhor Wat. Just another example of how mainstream archeology doesn't always get things right and perpetuates false narratives. Now, I'm sure at some point SOME people did cross over the Bering Strait. But that doesn't account for all of them... remember we are even talking about tribes deep in the Amazon who are genetically different from those in the American Southwest, for instance. But if one really wants to know how long the Native People have been here, and where they came from the best way to find the answer is to see what they have to say about it themselves. The Late Native American Spiritual teacher, writer and philosopher Vine Deloria has written extensively on this topic... it's been many years now since I read his books. He goes into great detail about the flaws about the land bridge theory and how it doesn't align with oral history or archeology. I think EVERY American should study these books in order to get a better understanding of the subject.

[@Robot_on_drugs]

Surely if that was all true the genetic data would back it up, no? Can you point out any studies that back up those claims you’re making ? It would be interesting if true, there’s just no data to back it up unless you have access to some data the rest of us don’t.

[@codykeane6107]

Your pointing at the books of a spiritual leader rather than scientific studies because they don't exist. Also in that book red earth white lies Vine Deloria also said his oral history told him dinosaurs didn't go extinct millions of years ago as we think, actually his tribe saw them walking around only 100 years ago. He also doesn't believe Earth is billions of years old, he believes its new. He used the bibles Noahs flood as evidence for the cataclysm event you talked about above. Also said Indians came from the middle east and when they arrived mammoths still existed - I guess not as extreme as dinosaurs 100 years ago. Believes increase in carbon dioxide causes people to grow taller. Doesn't believe in evolution. Says scientists are hiding evidence and science is a farce overall. What is his evidence for any of this? Yeah there isn't any at all whatsoever its oral tradition i.e some crazy fucker talked shit and we believed it. He has a masters degree in theology - this is spiritual religion you're pedalling as historical facts there's zero basis in the historical record.

[@heretic124]

I wish more archeologists had this approach. Open minded, when Danny asked some "pseudoscience" question Ed didn't scoff at him and said it's nonsense. Instead he politely explained why he thinks it's this other down to Earth thing. And Luke is awesome as always.

[@Toddis]

Just because we don't have the data yet doesn't mean you can't speculate That's a big issue I've noticed with people like flint dibble

[@derekcoaker6579]

Right. I never understood that idea. Why wouldn't we wonder out loud about things we don't know for sure? Dribble...could take some lessons in communication from Dr. B. here.

[@igorslocks]

Reeks of agenda science doesn't it? And corruption - say nothing until enough data is present. How much do we need? Don't worry, I'll let you know...

[@CoffeeFiend1]

Archaeology prides itself on being "all about science" with "no room for speculation" but they routinely fill in the gaps all over the place. Speculation can be excellent if evidence and data has hit a plateau and you're in a period of stagnation. An "idea" with a little backing can take you down a path and if it's a dead end then it's a dead end but it could also lead somewhere and land you more real data. Using reasoned speculation and inference doesn't have to stabbing in the dark blindly and quite frankly they should be well aware of that.

Hey! Great episode! Finally more archeologist on podcasts that can elaborate with more evidence about different cultures and new discoveries. Ed and Luke seem more open minded than other archeologist on podcast I have seen lately. I love the Olmec stuff. I have always thought that the Olmec heads look more like Sumo wrestlers from Japan. I think modern wrestlers from Japan are crazy tall as well. Just a thought..

[@robertdewitt4369]

You should have Dan Richard’s on your show. He seems to easily debunk Dibble

[@robertdewitt4369]

I’m a drummer. Have no certifications or credentials. I’m an observer. I’ve seen both men speak. I would love to see them on the same stage? Will never happen.

[@CoffeeFiend1]

@@robertdewitt4369 I reckon Dan would get annoyed. It might take him a while but Dibble will get to him. He's also never done any live debates before. We have to remember Graham has had 3-4 decades of practice when it comes to maintaining his cool under the bombardment of insults and quackery. Dan is reasonable but Dibble will definitely get under his skin as he's definitely going to have absolutely no respect for him whatsoever and will belittle and talk down to him incessantly. Danny (host not Dan) is also no Joe Rogan he's not experienced enough to be a good mediator between the two and I really can't imagine him reminding either to keep themselves in line. At some stage though maybe.

What evidence? Every time Hancock is asked about specific information he always responds with “idk” or “I’m not an expert”.

[@pietercastelein2568]

Why didn’t Danny ask the ultimate question, why are the biggest stones and most perfect walls at the bottom and no previous meaningful buildings are found. No development of technology, and why did they loose the ability of making those buildings on several parts of the world.

[@ClashNunite]

Why are the biggest stones on the bottom of a wall? Use your brain a little…

@@pietercastelein2568 I have seen videos on all the megalith walls around the world, and do stone masonry for a living. It’s all very impressive, but when you have thousands of people working for a religion or king & not money everyday you can create great things.

[@calebmahoney2448]

@@ClashNunite the guy worded that poorly and you should be able to understand what he’s saying since you’re a stone worker. He’s referencing different building patterns on the same structure. Whether they’re from repairs at different time periods or any other possibility.

[@calebmahoney2448]

Well the older gentleman did kind of answer that at one point by saying the civilizations were so rich and prosperous at the beginning they could inefficiently use the larger blocks and as time went on they likely used smaller blocks for efficiency. Danny did not ask tho you’re correct.

[@rk41gator]

In hearing about the origins of the Olmec, I am reminded of the Calusa culture from southern Florida which was based on shellfish and large-scale fish farming. Their culture was not corn-based. They created huge ceremonial pyramids and city mounds for living in a wet environment that was wholly unsuitable for raising corn.

[@amyk6403]

1:46:13 Pyramids may also be representations of mountains, or "high places." It's just a bonus that they are easier to build. Or are they? I think everyone can agree that none of these structures are easy to build. The better question is: "Why do humans consider mountains to be sacred; a sacred shape, a sacred place, a sacred height?" For example, Eden is on a mountain. The Cannanite "high places" are where sacrifices were offered. Peruvian mummies are found at the summit of mountains. Humans have usually considered "God " to be a "Sky God." Mountains allow humans to be closer to the deity. Pyramids represent that relationship.

Don't let this distract you from the the fact that in 1966, Al Bundy scored four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, "Spare Tire" Dixon.

This was amazing. I've really fallen in love with archeology . I would love to have an opportunity to be a part of this. My career has been the culinary world . I've always enjoyed history and culture of food. Digging and uncovering culture is a great adventure i wish I could get involved in.
