Joe Rogan | The Strange History of the Denisovans w/Graham Hancock

Bobby da Costa Well, funny I’ve come by this video. Just did two DNA 🧬 test that traces my roots back to east Papua, Vanuatu and the islands under it as well as Australia. Predominantly Papua though. I always thought the red-blondish strands in my hair came from a European Ancestry but turns out, it was Oceania the whole time!

Are there any physical traits that you have that come from that ancestry? Sorry if that’s a stupid question, just very cool and interesting 😅

[@lauriekrebs4522]

In college in the nineties. Took physical anthropology as an elective and was so blown away that I took about 10 more courses. All the professors indicated we had multiple "unidentified contributors" in our genome(s), and that only time would reveal who these contributors were. The puzzle is slowly coming together. Amazing, amazing stuff.

[@bradleylovej]

That's crazy. I took a college course in the mid-2000s (probably '07) where they had started identifying the contributors. But I barely paid attention, haha. I was much more interested in the part of the course that talked about how DNA copies itself. Still, kinda cool to see the academic progress: they were talking about unidentified contributors in your era, then just starting to identify them in mine.

[@davidjohnson5703]

I have always pondered how our ancient ancestors could have survived on such a harsh planet and environment without having some intelligence about them. In those times they were not at the top of the food chain. When they went out for a hunt or to do anything really they were constantly at risk of being attacked. To live that way and survive all while migrating to other parts of the planet is quite amazing and hints at their ingenuity.

[@sungodd-]

it’s different today w technology and how just society functions i think. buildings and shit weren’t a thing so running into a wolf was like commonplace. being a badass was like the standard basically is what i’m saying, if u couldn’t kill a bear w ur hands u were probably a bitch back then lol

There was also way more megafauna and predators. Europe used to have lions. Humans are a part of the reason megafauna don't really exist anymore. We've outcompeted them for resources.

[@Kyle-sr6jm]

Modern humans have been around for ~200,000 years. Our ancestors weren't any less intelligent than we are. We have just had 8,000 years of stable climate.

[@scienz]

they survived because they were the most intelligent animals on the planet.

[@Neon-ws8er]

they were smarter than us. if they learned how to survive in a harsh environment like that they were definitely smarter than us, at least at surviving. our specialty is technology and non-physical stuff, like language, philosophy, math and shit. theres also the fact that they were just as conscious about us, if not more conscious due to the constant danger they faced.

Prometheus, are you talking about Joe Rogan or Graham Hancock? They are both interesting. Graham Hancock is intelligent and nice. But he promoted many silly theories which have been thoroughly debunked by now. His theories about the arc of the covenant are not supported by facts! I agree with him, though, that archeologists and paleoanthropologists are far too rigid. Especially the latter have the unfortunate tendency to promote certain scenarios although only very few material clues are available. And they are very reluctant to change their ideas.

You have made him feel inferior. You have hurt his pride." With that in mind let me attempt to bridge that impossible gap. The simple answer is that there isn't sufficient evidence to grant that there ever was an advanced ancient civilization. In the same way that I dont have to defend my non belief in unicorns; it's the responsibility of the unicorn believes to provide evidence of that claim. So for almost everyone in academia they don't see Hancocks ideas a threat that challenges their ideas; they litterally see it as disproving unicorns.

Per your reference to Dale Carnegie’s quote, my intent is not to win an argument but to find an acceptable middle ground on the subject.

Joe can barely hold focus on the words coming out of his own mouth. But if you like that drill hole, you'll love Brien Foerster's channel. The huge drill holes he's found in Peru and Egypt drill a hole right through our narrative of human technological development. A big, scary, mysterious hole! His channel is full of terrifying enigmas that are often simply lying around on the world. Rogan and Hancock are ok, but Brien literally goes there and shows you this stuff right to your face in HD.

[@undertheneonlights]

​@@borkwoof696Cord drills? 😂 Is this a joke? Cord (corded) are powered, the first drills were Bow Drills, these were invented by the Inuit in 5000BC then stabilized and perfected in Egypt in 3000BC, a massive empire of builders with heavy stable tools. These humans achieved the same, in a cave, 65000 years ago. This is beyond mind-blowing.

[@Reids0me]

The drill hole reminds me of the mysterious drill holes found in Egypt. The Egyptians had some very advanced technology, and supposedly we only just recently (in the last century or two) gained the ability to drill with the same rigor and precision as the ancient Egyptians. It seems to me like there is a technique for drilling that has been lost to time, and it will be interesting to see if we ever figure it out again.

As an archaeologist (used to be) the Clovis first school of thought was/is pretty tight.

This is an extremely interesting topic and one that nearly inspires me to get back in the field.

[@soakedbearrd]

Hancock is well versed in archaeology but his research is considered semi-taboo from the establishment's point of view.

[@SpeedCultureStudios]

soakedbearrd This is a point of his. Anything against the “establishment” is going to be frowned upon and met with harsh criticism-even made to look silly or outrageous-all to protect a long established narrative. Coming up through undergrad and then graduate school, it becomes clear that some of these folks that made these discoveries (Clovis) and/or established this school of thought were like rockstars. It seems weird, but these archaeologists were/are idolized in certain circles and have massive followings-it’s very difficult to shake that and change that. People are dedicated, loyal, and resistant to change.

Ancient Humans Had Sex With Mystery Species, New DNA Study Shows
 “The ancient genomes, one from a Neanderthal and one from a different archaic human group, the Denisovans, were presented on 18 November at a meeting at the Royal Society in London. They suggest that interbreeding went on between the members of several ancient human-like groups living in Europe and Asia more than 30,000 years ago, including an as-yet unknown human ancestor from Asia.” “What it begins to suggest is that we’re looking at a ‘Lord of the Rings’-type world - that there were many hominid populations,” says Mark Thomas, an evolutionary geneticist at University College London who was at the meeting but was not involved in the work.” “The first Neanderthal and the Denisovan genome sequences revolutionized the study of ancient human history, not least because they showed that these groups interbred with anatomically modern humans, contributing to the genetic diversity of many people alive today. All humans whose ancestry originates outside of Africa owe about 2% of their genome to Neanderthals; and certain populations living in Oceania, such as Papua New Guineans and Australian Aboriginals, got about 4% of their DNA from interbreeding between their ancestors and Denisovans, who are named after the cave in Siberia’s Altai Mountains where they were discovered. The cave contains remains deposited there between 30,000 and 50,000 years ago.” 
 m.huffpost.com/us/entry/4302031

[@spitflamez]

“Approximately 2-4% of genetic material in human populations outside Africa is derived from Neanderthals who interbred with anatomically modern humans. Recent studies have shown that this Neanderthal DNA is depleted around functional genomic regions; this has been suggested to be a consequence of harmful epistatic interactions between human and Neanderthal alleles. However, using published estimates of Neanderthal inbreeding and the distribution of mutational fitness effects, we infer that Neanderthals had at least 40% lower fitness than humans on average; this increased load predicts the reduction in Neanderthal introgression around genes without the need to invoke epistasis. We also predict a residual Neanderthal mutational load in non-Africans, leading to a fitness reduction of at least 0.5%. This effect of Neanderthal admixture has been left out of previous debate on mutation load differences between Africans and non-Africans. We also show that if many deleterious mutations are recessive, the Neanderthal admixture fraction could increase over time due to the protective effect of Neanderthal haplotypes against deleterious alleles that arose recently in the human population. This might partially explain why so many organisms retain gene flow from other species and appear to derive adaptive benefits from introgression”. www.genetics.org/content/203/2/881
