Dear Graham,
I’m a native of Peru residing in Florida, USA. At the age of 14 I visited Puno, Titicaca but failed to reach the marvelous ruins of Puma Punku. My interest was piqued at a young age during Peruvian social studies that highlighted the origin of the Inka people from the “foams of lake Titicaca”. Myth was the term used to a 9 year old class and I imagine the story remains the same.
At 38 years old Tiahuanaco has become a topic that continues to churn in my mind and as the veil is slowly removed from ancient history, the veil mainstream archaeology has imposed on the population I find myself reaching out to a person that I have followed throughout my life and that now has a platform to further this effort.
I would humbly request, if you have no plans already, to present the findings of Posnansky on your show Ancient Apocalypse. Posnansky correctly proposes the age of Puma Punku at 12k-15k years. More over he presents the unfathomable power of nature showing how climate, or interstellar devastation gave rise and then obliteration and then rise again to a population capable of creating megalithic structure impossible today. Cataclysm brought as you have proposed the younger dryas, I find it so exciting that in my lifetime you a person first seen as alternative will go down in history as the man that brought humanity close to the answer. A coherent, science based answer to the origin of our species.
A humble individual
P.D. Any thoughts or reply would be quite appreciated. Thank you.
It's simply a matter of time before we find more evidence from the far distant past that will shake the foundations of archeology world wide. The recent UAP hearings, the Nazca mummies, the Atacama mummy, Brien Foesters work in Peru- the truth is coming out albeit slowly. Many Ooparts were found in mining tunnels deep underground in the western USA. This might correlate with the Smithsonian article part the turn of last century reporting Egyptian artifacts were found in the Grand Canyon.
Do you think that Graham's beliefs in Martians and ancient psychic levitating rock people make his theory more or less credible?
I just connected with my cousin over the ancient civilization theory. What podcast appearance would you recommend giving someone to start with? I’m thinking Joe Rogan with Randall Carlson
I like to keep an open mind, but something about this entire thought process of a Pleistocene advanced culture isn't quite landing for me, so I am curious to see what people say.
Groups of people make things. To make a stone tipped spear they need to harvest the wood or bone for the shaft, get the right kinds of rocks together, knap the stones right to break away pieces so they can make a spear point, get the ties or glues to bind the point to the shaft; and presto- spear. But this means for every one spear, they probably are making a lot of wood shavings, stone flakes, extra fibers or glues they didn't need; and lots of other things like food they need to get to eat as they work, fire to harden wood or create resins/glues, and other waste product. Every cooked dinner produces ashes, plant scraps, animal bones, and more. And more advanced cultures with more complex tools and material culture, produce more complex trash and at a bigger volume.
People make trash. This is one some of the most prolific artifact sites in archaeology are basically midden and trash piles. Production excess, wood pieces, broken tools or items, animal bones, shells, old pottery, all goes into the trash. Humans are so prolific at leaving shit behind they've found literally have a 50,000 year old caveman's actual shit. So if we can have dozens upon hundreds of paleolithic sites with stone tools, bone carvings, wooden pieces, fire pits, burials, and leavings; where is the Atlantean shit? And I mean more than their actual... well you get the idea.
People do like to live on the coast, but traveling inside a continent a few dozen kilometers, especially down large rivers, is a lot easier than sailing across oceans. We have Clovis and other early culture sites in the Americas in the heart of the continent, up mountains, and along riverways. So if there were advanced ancient cultures with writing, metallurgy, trade routes, and large scale populations or practices, why didn't we find a lot of that before we found any evidence of the small bands of people roughing it in the sticks in the middle of sabretooth country?
I'm not talking about huge cities or major civic centers. Where's the trash?
Big Archaeology has been preventing excavation on Little Saint James for decades. The mysterious mounds on the island are a clear sign of megalithic architecture that pre-dates the Ice Age and would stand to prove Graham Hancock’s hypothesis. This is why Archaeologists created Jeffrey Epstein to cast a shadow over the landscape and ensure this evidence remains buried forever.
On December 13, 2024, a group will depart from the marina on Big Saint James in a fleet of canoes, shovels in hand, to once and for all reveal the true mystery of the Ancient Apocalypse. Any enlightened thinker who can recite the Graham Hancock/Flint Dibble transcript by heart is invited to join us. No archaeological sheep allowed!
The precession cycle is Earth’s slow “wobble,” where its axis traces a circle in the sky every 26,000 years. This cosmic rhythm has shaped the history of our planet, influencing meteor showers, climate shifts, and even the rise and fall of civilizations. On December 21, 2024, we reach a crucial milestone: the halfway point of this cycle. Let me explain why this matters.
Imagine Earth as a spinning top with a pencil running through it from the North to the South Pole. Over time, the top of the pencil (Earth’s axis) draws a slow circle in the sky. This movement changes the stars we align with and the cosmic zones we face. For example, 13,000 years ago, during the Younger Dryas period, the axis pointed toward a dense part of the galaxy near the galactic equator. This may have increased the risk of meteor showers, possibly leading to a catastrophic impact that reshaped Earth’s climate and wiped out species.
Fast forward to 2024, and the axis now points toward a quieter cosmic zone during the winter solstice. This moment represents a shift—from the chaos of 13,000 years ago to a period of reflection and renewal. It’s as if Earth has moved from a “busy intersection” in the galaxy to a calm, open road. But over the next 10,000–13,000 years, the axis will slowly steer us back toward that dangerous region.
Adding to the significance, Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, aligns with the Sun during the winter solstice. Ancient cultures like the Egyptians and Maya revered Sirius as a cosmic guide, symbolizing renewal and transformation. Sites like Göbekli Tepe may have been constructed to warn future generations about these celestial cycles and their risks.
December 21, 2024, isn’t just an ordinary solstice. It marks a pivotal moment in Earth’s 26,000-year journey, a time to reflect on the lessons of the past and prepare for the future. The cosmic alignment reminds us of our connection to these larger rhythms and the importance of paying attention to the skies.
Will we finally learn? Or will the cycle go on. What do you think?
As what happened to JRE and Kill Tony sub happened to GH sub? Has this subbed been astroturfed?
If you ever thought or said Dibble was a liar, you should probably watch this.
Unlikely a new idea but I couldn't find an answer anywhere... please bear with me :)
In S1E6 of Ancient Apocalypse we are presented with Serpent Mound and the hypothesis that it is aimed/aligned with the summer solstice of 12'800 years ago (taking into account Earth's angle of spin varying over time).
Let's take the famous pyramids in Egypt and their resemblance to the Orion constellation, or really anything else you can think of, and using a similar thought process, I ask you: when would the pyramids' 'perfect' alignment with the Orion constellation at - let's pick the low hanging fruit - the summer solstice, put the construction of said pyramids in our past?
These people are going after my family now My dad's draft was deferred because he was in a motorcycle accident. A truck ran a red light. He was in hospital when drafted. Broken legs. Broken back. And more He was told he might never walk again .
OK…probably not….this is more about revisiting an idea I had as a child. I always thought as a kid strangely odd that the connections of the continents as they were 135 million years ago to me looked like the indigenous peoples of the countries as they stand today. I just heard that Australian DNA has connections to South American DNA and decided to break out my aluminum foil to make a brain beam protector and take to the anthropological (not even sure if that would be the correct field for this question lol) experts of Reddit to try and find me some more confirmation bias for my ridiculous idea.
Are there other anomalies that could potentially be explained by earlier humans on Pangea or one of the later Super continents or other various stages in the formation of the Atlantic oceans? I’m well aware of the “academic” viewpoint on the subject as it was explained to me literally decades ago by my Geography teacher laughing understandably at my foolish notions. What I’m interested in is the anomalies…anyone have anything?
