First off, the UnchartedX guy is meh, I've watched his content and he definitely goes into la la land and confirmation bias prevalent. Did like his video on Egypt labyrinth and study of the granite machined vases not making sense in the status quo timeline.

Have not digested as much content from structures in Ancient India. The barabar site cutouts remind me of storage caches. One of the same theories presented for the granite boxes at Saqqara. Makes me wonder if they were repurposed from their original form. Like some Egyptian sites having shoddy level hieroglyph etched into near perfect geometries.

Don't want to discount the Indian people, they do have a continuity with their culture to the ancient sites that no other cultures can claim. Living sites vs forgotten


To many similar sites in multiple locations in different countries / continents. Bet yes of course alot of the stuff was repurposed.

They do get into crazy theories sometimes, but if fossil records of people existing well over 150k years with modern brain capacity and to think only within the last 8000 years we've created civilaztion seems extremely unlikely. Just my vibe.

The video is a long one, but it isn't created by UnchartedX so you know. It's made by his friend who gave him permission to post. It's an incredible watch

Theres definitely something to be said about the marvels ancient peoples were able to build without technologies and how far they were able to push thier engineering with what they had, but these days we are so dependant on power tools and machines for the slightest thing, its easy for us to come upon these ancient engineering marvels and completely misinterpret what they were used for.

Take dinosaur bones. Sure our recreations may look fine enough, then you look at some others and theres just no way. Id take any of these videos and thier findings/interpretation with a grain of salt.

And humans (in current form) have been here for about 0.009% of the overall time life has existed here by fossil record dating. The curves d polished stone was wild to see. Hard enough polishing flat surfaces with modern tools

Graham Hancocks Ancient Apocalypse is a really good watch too, he just came out with season 2 this month :thumbsup:

he has great audio books too (fingerprints of the gods) and others you can find them on YouTube.

(bassforge.us) is a super interesting dude hes got some good rabbit holes to get lost in! :D
