Thank u for your service 💗
Fellow Army vet, Ojibwa. Great discoveries are being made recently. Finally the world is becoming open to history.
Awesome 👍
I'm a Yupik Eskimo, from Kotlik Alaska, the mouth of the mighty Yukon. We still use spears and spear throwers for hunting seals in the summer. Young kids can be very cracking throwers and fun to watch when we hunt seals with spears and harpoons. My people never stopped using the spears and spear thrower and harpoon. Awsome finds. There are many ancient artifacts throughout the mighty Yukon River. Greetings from Kotlik Alaska.
Awesome

Thank You for sharing that, sir.
I've hiked in the Yukon and it's wild to think about the history hidden beneath your feet. This documentary really brings home the feeling that we walk in the footsteps of many who came before us. These tools are a testament to human ingenuity and adaptability.
My father went on many far northern caribou hunts in his life, at Ungava Bay etc. I know from many years of listening to him that in the Summer that caribou will not seek altitude for thermo regulation but to escape the absolutely horrific concentration of large arctic mosquitos in the lowlands. The caribou are tormented by them, and the mosquitos will prevent summer weight gain and prevent proper development or even the survival of calves.
Wow.
I was once an assistant guide in Alaska. On a trip to Twin Lakes in May 1978, I learned how true this observation is. I wore mosquito net and used spray to protect my hands, because the mosquitos literally darkened the sky. The drone was unearthly and every step in the tundra raised a new cloud. The few caribou left in the area were stragglers from the main herd, and they were covered with mosquitoes. It wasn’t flies, guys, but millions upon millions of ravenous mosquitoes.
Great ❤
Only 15 minutes in and this is already one of the neatest documentaries I have seen in a long time. The preservation of the artifacts is absolutely amazing.
If you still believes the lies. After about 1,000 lies I tend to not believe anything regarding historic claims.

I agree
Being an ironworker, I wonder at the stories those metal points could tell. Losing one, that long ago, must have been a serious loss!
I dont think their life was as difficult as we think. With all of our modern comforts we have become weak, wimpy compared to their lifestyle.
Our modern technological 'smarts' cannot be compared to the intelligence it takes to live with nature.
Even with the most modern archery equipment hunters lose arrows. I imagine it would be expected that one is going to lose some arrows.
@@joemfk1 Anthropologists believe that ancient hunter gatherers lived a fairly leisurly lifestyle. Our ancestors condemned us to an eternity of labor when they started farming.
@@tinknal6449 mass organized farming yes I will agree with that. It must've started with free trade then somewhere along the way greed stepped in
@@tinknal6449 each one of lose shit everyday. Whether it change from your pocket or where you parked your car.
In Australia the indigenous people there had the same weapon / tool as the Atlatl and have seen the distance and accuracy they can be thrown. To now know of these items being elsewhere confirms my belief in migration and the possibility that all nation are or can be related. What a awesome story to watch and learn from. Thankyou...
They were used all around the globe in the Paleolithic! we find them more related to de Native American tribes and Australian aboriginals because of their more Paleolithic-like way of living, but hunter-gatherers from all around the world used them! It's so cool
Some researching i did into understanding DNA to better understand my family history. I found that some isolated pockets of indigenous south American east coast cultures, actually have some indigenous Australian DNA. Which tells us that there must have been mingling of these cultures at some point, to some degree. Very interesting!
It's not a stretch to say these things were developed independently.
@@godless-clump-of-cells just like the Elongated skulls, matching stone work and myths.
Just a coincidence.
It was really nice of the Abrahamic religion to spread civilization to the world 👌
@@godless-clump-of-cellsthey very well could have been developed independently. That's definitely not a stretch at all.
Gosh, I fell in love with each person who spoke in this documentary. I could watch and listen to them all tell stories and share their experiences for hours-they are all so rich with wisdom. So many First Nations people featured too! It was excellent to see them tell their stories. Really incredible.
Pure wisdom...from people who would still live on the stone age
Why does no one point out that this is absolute proof that the climate was so much warmer in the past that these northern areas supported hunters and large game animals.
That would not sit well with climate terrorists/ democrats.
When I was a boy we used to make throwing sticks like those discovered on the ice, we called them swathy's, I don't know where that name came from but it was a name that was universally known in the area that I grew up in. We quickly progressed from a wooden launcher to a piece of string with a knot in which you wrapped around the swathy locking it in position with the knot so that it released as you threw it. A piece of string goes in a young boys pocket better than a launching stick and we found it more accurate and it worked well whatever the swathy's length. We used a bay leaf shaped leaf inserted in a split in the end and retied with thin cord or fishing line for flights although a few pieces of string about 8 inches long whipped onto the end of the swathy worked just as well. We didn't have the patience to flint knap the points so we usually just carved a point and wrapped garden wire(from local building sites) to add weight to the front. We were devilishly accurate with them, and woe betide any rats that came in range.
We of course didn't know the archaeological significance, its obviously what boys had been doing for thousands of years in play, long after the necessity to use them for hunting had passed.
same here, we called them french arrows. don't know why, i'll have to google it i think, lol !
I also made 'throwing arrows" as we called them. We got the idea from an old book I think it was called "The Handy Boys Guide" ? The thrower was a piece of flexible Hickory notched to hold the arrow, it had great speed and with practice great accuracy.
We made the same, also called French arrows. North Wiltshire
Ray Tillman, you should make a video of building one, with the story you told. I find it fascinating that you built them almost on instinct. Cheers!
@@campbellj20 don't think he said it was instinct...
This film hits what I believe to be the most important part of archeology: The story told to us by our ancestors about who they were, how they lived, and possibly how they died. It is poignant to feel the reality of a life lost while alone on the ice and snow. One can only hope that he was loved and cherished, and that his passing was not painful to him, while we continue to honor him for who he is, and what his body is able to speak to us. It is so painful that the Sami experienced the same cultural obliteration that so many other cultures have experienced.
It's very sad that cultural obliteration, breakup of families, removing children from their parents is still happening today. So important to understand the pain from the past to let cultures and families live freely today.. The forcible assimilation of various cultures into one is a very sad lesson that many governments still haven't learned.
I would love there to be a recording of all oral history of the native American tribes. But there's many other tribes still out there that the same is occurring
Let's be very greatful for the western technology that helped us find and date these objects. Also for the DNA technology that that shows who we are and where we came from. The average life span of those who lived 1400 was about 30 years. Know it averages 75 or above. There's much move. I for one am very grateful! Think about it !
@@bryanfinkell5184
The average lifespan of 30 years is very deceptive, and shows how statistics need to be taken in the context of their surroundings. The average is so low because a much higher percentage of children died before the age of five. If you lived past that age, one had a very good chance to live to a normal old age, with the biggest issues being the health of ones teeth, the dangers of childbirth, and infection from wounds. While fewer people survived greater than the age of 75 than now, there was still a good percentage that did so.

“Their rate of melting was unprecedented “ ...except for the time when the entire North American ice sheet melted at the end of the last ice age...
😉
What may give you a hint of what climatecrisis really means.
Because right now , technically ,we are at the beginning of a new ice age not at an end of one.
All the ice did not melt at that time because we are still in the most recent pleistocene epoch, we are still in an ice age, granted the end of an ice age, but we are still in an ice age
It did not melt then to the extent that it has now melted. Additionally, we are now moving from an interglacial period to what should be a glacial period (according to previous glacial/interglacial cycles), but we are not seeing any signs of reglacialisation.
@@zenolachance1181 Nope we are a few thousand years away from the end of the current interglacial and the beginning of a new glacial.
More worryingly the glaciatians are getting longer and the interglacials COOLER, our current interglacial is significantly cooler than the two which preceded it.
It will warm and cool there will be long periods of cooling and warming around every thousand years just like the paleoclimate data shows us is normal, but overall it is cooling the peak warmings are getting shorter and cooler over the last 11000 years.
I went on a field trip to site about 12 years ago now (as a 7th grader), and they showed us the atlatl throwing pieces found in the area. To demonstrate how much skill it took to actually throw one of these accurately, they set up a frame (box shaped) about 30 feet away and told us that we had to get one in the box to eat lunch (because we were hunting our imaginary deer box). I am proud to say I was the only one who got it through, and I, am the successful hunter (also it was really hard lol)
You would have been the one to bring the food for everyone. The tribe didn't need everyone to hit the mark, just one person.
"Successful." Only after you Murdered your Classmates, with your "Near Misses."
My husband and i visited an very old cave in American S.E. and We had a chance to use an atlat and experienced the difference in how far rhe spear went using it>
@@ihavefallenandicantreachmy2113 shhhh we don't need to talk about it
@@k1amc3 Damn. Maybe, next year.
Fascinating and informative. I love that they were able to find blood relatives for the 2-3 hundred year old man. That really connects past to present.
This is why I love documentaries. It gives you insight of things and events that happen anywhere on earth. My parents had pushed us on things like history, archeology, sciences that can keep us busy and learning. Interacting among us humans and nature is what keeps us learning more, apart from being too disruptive to our environment with civilization and from not becoming instinct, It's what we've learned is what has allowed us to keep thriving and evolving.
12:38 When the elder said "the shit in these snow patches proves it" caught me off guard so much I couldn't stop laughing loool 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂
The rate at which I lose tools I would have been a gold mine to archeologists if I had been an ancient hunter....
LOL😂
Me too my friend
Wow.... these discoveries are amazing! Such incredible finds--the stories they tell!
Awesome. I love history so much. Nothing more cool than figuring out how people survived thousands of years ago.
The stunning beauty, the tranquility, the reverence, all contributed to the overwhelming happiness that I felt while watching this awesome documentary. It had me smiling benignly from beginning to to end. Thank you so much for this wonderful Christmas present:
for me, it is an outstanding and unforgettable highlight of the year.
actually what is unprecedented isn't the ice melting , it's the event that laid down the ice .
what event is that? From what I understand, the earth is more commonly in an ice age rather than out of it.
@@scotmcpherson I don't think anybody is sure . consensus science has missed the mark lately.
ok the ground under the ice tells a different story. what if , Earths electric potential is on the rise due to weakening of our magnetic field?
possible " climate change " with out human influence.
thanks for asking Scott. also something that's been of concern? all the megafauna flash frozen fresh still to this day? did you know?
in the Arctic, just around the region in question. what happened? did the earth roll over ?
@@cokemachine5510 consensus science? No no, you said that the ice melting isn't what's unprecidented, but the event that laid the ice down.
I am saying, I think you are wrong. It's well known that the earth is in ice age for far greater lengths of time than warm periods, so I don't understand why you made your statement. It's the exact opposite of what's understood.
And what do you mean flash frozen and earth flipped over? If you are asking how the animals got down into the ice, that's EASY. It's albedo....the ice is mostly white and reflects sunlight, whilst mammoths for instance are dark and therefore absorb light and it's heat. This means that anything that isn't boyant in water WILL sink through the ice when the sun shines. Quick experiment for you....Freeze a cup of water this winter and place a quarter on top of the ice. Place that ice outside in the sun. Even when it's 40 degrees below zero, the quarter will still slowly make it's way to the bottom of the cup.
@@scotmcpherson maybe Scott, I'm not going to say you're wrong, that's what we were taught in school right?
I have a feeling the Younger Dryas event gouged out the Grand Canyon, transporting the megafauna into a pile in the Arctic, not sure the mechanism?
seen it buddy, where do you think the world gets its piano keys ? billiard balls? most anything and everything Ivory.
coal with identifiable organic material , 1000s of years old.
like the redating of all the Glaciers of the world . not 100s of thousands or millions of years.. soooo concensus science either is dishonest or mistaken with hubris,
plays out kinda like this. so again, what happened Scott ?
@@scotmcpherson Mammoths and other contemporary megafauna did NOT roam about on icefields and glaciers, they were cold/ temperate mammals and something killed millions of these animals very quickly and very suddenly. This is why we can still find almost complete examples in melting permafrost today. This was a catastrophic event and not a gradual change in climate. I think this is what Mr cokemachine means when he mentions "flash frozen".
As a horticulturalist/ conservationist i would love to see if any seeds survived in the dung? I loved this documentary thank you
Man, this is awesome. This is the kind of documentary you hope to find.
This is so fascinating. I should have not changed my major from archaeology to history when I was younger. It is odd that the ice sheets are melting to the to the degree they were thousands of years ago. It makes you wonder if those folks thought the world was going to come to an end from global freezing.
You might find a history degree, quite useful, in the study of archaeology, make some calls! Can't hurt!!!
I went to school for anthropology in 2009; I dropped out.
I have vowed to pursue it again. You should as well; the world needs people like us.
Did you go into teaching history? I don't think you made a mistake. Archaeology was and still is difficult to get funding for. I did some volunteer dig work locally in the 90s. To get certified as avocational required all the hours I'd clocked, plus a couple of classes I'd have to pay for - signatures and some other crap, just so I, as an Avocational Archaeologist could go spend $1500+ USD to join other digs across the US. My decision? Mechanical design degree, docent work at our local natural history museum, and the old news clippings I'd saved from that time.
@@sealyoness I do love to study, I hold degrees in several disciplines
I get your point. When these points, atlatl darts and the human remains were deposited there, the ice was not as thick since they are melting out of the ice sheets. People freak out about melting ice, but there were many times in history when the ice was small. And people walked along and among the animals when the ice was not thick.
These artifacts are coming out of ice that, though thousands of years old, is still often younger than the weapon. The arctic was ice free many times in human history, usually just before an ice age. 10k yrs of warm and 90k of cold, then back to 10k of warm and again to 90k of cold over and over for the last few million years, this has been the state of the Earth.
Kinda shoots holes in the current Global Climate Change idea. The Human record keeping doesn't even show up on the geologic record keeping that the earth provides. Geology tells us that ice comes and goes and the drivers are bigger than us.
@@bayoubees9447 You wish. This is denial-ism and it helps nothing but your comfort.
@@strawberyyicecreamdream216 My opinion may not agree with today's agenda or politically correctness but the facts are written in stone - the geologic evidence can not be changed to suit any agenda.
@@bayoubees9447 Are you a geologist?
@@strawberyyicecreamdream216 I have and continue to study Geology.
This is soo sick!!! It’s amazing that the ice preserved everything this great! Can you imagine how much things were able to be found in the early 1900’s
Thank you for saving these artifacts for rest of us who are normally educated but not had the opportunity to study this in-depth. I’m in ah of what I have learned today. Thank you I have actually read books where they have described these tools but being able to see them with my own eyes no words to describe. Thank you 🍀🍀🕊🌍🕊♥️
I found this very inspiring. Suddenly I felt myself running with the hunters! Our life has become too easy. In search of constant greater “safety” we are losing the feeling of being alive, exhilarated. And becoming too domesticated we are becoming prey of other forces
To Claire Mataira, it is interesting you mentioned that. There was a short lived TV series, of asking a small group of people, who were knew what the reason was, to walk down through on a path between groups of trees, bushes. It was to see if modern man would be able to detect predatory animals, in the area, or near by, or waiting for them to come by. This was done several times, differing groups each time. Almost none would have made it, even to the middle point. Modern man didn't have a clue what to look for as he was walking, or even what to do if suspected something. From this, it was postulated, that man would get back some of it by the next generation. Am thinking, wise people, would bring that favored animal, dogs, and of course, weaponry re spear points, etc. He would also communicate to others, and as always, trade for that better spear point.
@@donnagoring250 what was the TV series called.sounds interesting.ive got ADHD an my mind thinks different an I think I'd be very aware
@@rumplestiltskin3268 Will start looking for it and pass on to you. It was one of those times was walking from here to there and the TV was on, and something caught the attention, what was so interesting about seeing if a group of people could walk and then started listening.
This was back before you tubes and such. Will send it on to you and anything like it if can find a catagory for this for your interest.
@@rumplestiltskin3268 And you would be one of the ones that would spot something amiss, and make it out. Because you spotted something amiss, before you walked into it. You would be the go to person of the group.
Well said mam well said
Artifacts that will benefit the whole of mankind should out weight the claims of "These artifacts are from OUR ancestors, they belong to us!" BS!
Just so.
Meh feelings
Loved all the information ,discoveries like these need to be protected with the highest protection ,this can unlock a lot of stories
Awesome video and what incredible finds, especially the last piece with the copper tip. What a gift the past has given us from the ice.
Too bad the FN people want to hide the truth from the public
If they have nothing hide, then let the scientists examine it
Best doco i've seen in a long time! Thank you
This tells me the world has been thru many changes in time. Man cannot stop it.
Yet can learn from it.
Yet again a great doc! Im exited about what the field of archeology will bring to us in the future.
I Hope the scientific and academic establishment are ready for finds that will contribute to our understanding of are species history, and open for finds that may challenge our contemporary narrative.
I would love to see these wonders. What a great final story. Respecting all the family groups as they find and examine these artifacts is so important for the native families.
Every now and then mother nature gives us a gift like this. These are tangible connections to some of the toughest, smartest people to ever live. Hunter gatherers. People that were completely in touch with nature and the cosmos. Respect 🙏
You can say thanks to my ancestors who started the industrial revolution. If it we’re not for that then they might still be frozen.
Not smartest
@@randomvintagefilm273 I must also agree with you on this. Make arrows from flit is not the same as putting a man on the moon.
@@PibrochPonder it quite literally is. The same intelligence that got man to build a spear is the the same exact intelligence and knowledge sharing that lead us to put the man on the moon.
@@mftoeless1687 it’s knowledge you are talking about. Also it’s not the exact same as culture and average group IQ also play a big role. Heck in some places they still have Stone Age tribes.
When I was 5 I found a perfect arrow point in the dirt below my sand box, it actually had small fossil imprints of shells on it. I ran to the house as fast as I could and told my parents what I found. Dad laughed thinking I found a normal rock, but when I handed it to him he was amazed. It was made so perfectly I yearned to know who had made it and when.
In the summer of 1965, my family traveled to New York to visit/meet my dad's family. On the first day at my dad's uncle's house in Cairo, NY, I found an arrowhead in his driveway. He had only just spread a load of gravel (shale, slate) on it just a week earlier. What a huge surprise for a 10-year old from Florida!
Me too in Arkansas, most kids down there had some. It is an amazing feeling for a kid!
Still have it?
I've found many in eastern Oregon. I leave them be, treat it as a little secret between me and them until it's able to be documented.
I found a whole Box full at age 8 at the Philadelphia natural history museum
The manufacture of these darts and method of deployment exhibits an amazing level of sophistication on the part of the ancient hunters these darts are far more effective as a weapon than bow and arrows..amazing!
Incredible insight and connections for everyone past, present and future. The continuity of ancestral people to today's people is beyond words and is testament of mankind's relationship to the land and one another. Science and Ancient Knowledge can support and benefit each other.
Amazing Documentary. When the ice retreats, we find humans have been here long before. Who was driving cars to melt the ice enough for them to hunt up there back then? It's almost like the weather is a natural fluctuating mechanism or something...
well, of course it is. The further point being that the natural seasonal changes had been radically accelerated by human beings in their destructive behaviour, to the degree that the Earth is in Big trouble.
@@dehoedisc7247 : Complete rubbish, every decade in the past 50 years has had its label, from "next ice age" in the 70s to "acid rain" in the 80s.
"Climate change" is the new buzzword that some academics have have been pushing in an attempt to go green, there are hundreds in that community too afraid to speak up because when they do, they lose their jobs.
Im not suggesting there arent things to change, or think about, but this planet is in no way being threatened to the extent that many in popular media will have you believe.
@@repetemyname842 Nonsense. You infer that are there people with the notion that the "Sky is Falling" and that they have allies in the serious scientific establishments. And while some elements of national media certainly lean in the direction of "Chicken Little",these are in the minority in my opinion.
you weren’t paying attention. those ice patches have been there long enough to preserve what it has been preserving. if they had fluctuated (melted refrozen melted) those those artifacts would have been destroyed
people still hunted caribou across the ice. it’s not like these lands were inaccessible. but they were still ice patches
if they hadn't cremated his remains, they might have found out a lot more in the future
look at china's peking man. the chinese people put science first to benefit the human race present & future. these people should do the same, lets try to gain from the finds & not cremated and lose it forever.
I have no immediate first nations connection and yet I feel incredibly connected to these stories as they link me to a time in my ancestors history which was no different from the experience of the people who lost these tools.
What an amazing story it's so lovely to hear its being treated respectfully. Thankyou teaching me about the lovely people. Bless you all xxxx Linda Bellamy UK
You couldn't keep me off the mountain. Makes your heart pound. Amazing.
I HEAR THAT
Where are you ??!! right now??!! then.??
I bet ya not on a mountain 🤭🤭🤗😁😃😅🤣🗻🗻🏔🗺🌍🌍
So 9000 years ago, this area was used as a hunting area. To support hunting then the area must have supported at least enough vegetation to support game. So much for anthropomorphic global warming.
Fantastic work, stunning finds, long may the snow patches continue to reveal our past. I hope these finds lead to many years of research, you never know, we may get the answer to a few questions along the way, wow what an education
I love this, thank you so much for sharing this. I just found that I have Cherokee Ancestry, and I can see that my indigenous ancestors probably subsisted with wonderful tools like this.
Fascinating archaeology! Also, really love that the connection of the people to the land and their history (including the Residential Schools) is addressed.
There must be an extraordinary wealth of artifacts melting out of ice patches in Siberia. I wonder how extensive the efforts are to collect, preserve and study them?
As extensive as uttering these holy words:
Suka blyat
See we boycot them and they dont have the resources to do that because we dont want free trade
Thank you so very much for this video very informative much respect for the native people for leaving such wonderful Easter eggs in the ice
Great program
No BS. No hyperbole. No Graham Hancocking. But still loaded with enthusiasm and excitement. Thanks so much!
I like Hancock ideas to kick off interest but he goes off the path with the mystical.
I have half a set penguin myths explain.
Like Rama and Sitas kidnapping by the monkey king. Taking her Siri Lanka 🇱🇰 and NASA photos of the land bridge that joins to India. Makingb itv real.
As an archaeologist that works in Western United States in Ute First Nations region. I LOVE THE RESPECT THE ANTHROPOLOGY TEAM SHOWED to the artifacts! One of the most amazing experiences I've ever had was when I was a student and on an anthropological field school trip to chaco canyon new mexico. When we woke up the next morning the elders that were from the Zuni tribe had left us their firewood. This is a HUGE sign of respect in Zuni culture! Great Video!!!
Respect is a universally understood trait in any culture. As my father used to say, “We all want respect and we need to give it in order to receive it.”
Respect. Grew up in Fort Collins 🍻

*I'd be interested in the GeoPhysics, deep penetrating radar, of some of these areas, to see digs to discover what lies beneath the era.* See, the ice has also kept the ground capped in Time.
These areas can offer the pathway to earlier Ancients and t9 "Earlier Ancient Civilisations".
I need not argue whether or not they existed, nor that the "Darwinian19th Century Theory Paradigm and Timeline". I need not please anyone else's opinions, ideas, nor what they choose to seem facts. I need only follow the "Standards of Science and Research", which requires Mind fully open, void of my allowing any: Beliefs, Theories, Opinions, or Ideas, to interfere with the application of the proven Research Methodologies which bring forth the findings from the data they're applied to, (which means all available artifacts, fossils, oral, and written Histories need to be included). The facts will emerge and they are supposed to write the stories, not the Archaeologists or Anthropologists.
It important that Academics keep their Ego and the Ego Mind out if the work, using Conscious Thought + applying Higher Mind.
Anything less does not serve the point of Research nor Humanity.
Evolving requires these points. The mundane mindset has allowed a Theory to be used as fact, allowed that to grow branches, and then allowed the Theory to grow into a Dogma and they defend it with "beliefs", and this is unacceptable in Science and Research, It is breeches the "Standards of Science and Research" and "Ethical Standards".
Dig deeper, 8nclude all the artifacts found, be free to Explore and Discover the facts and they will write the truths
Authentic Academics follow the Standards. Thoes whom don't and don't accept Peer Reviewed Findings that don't fit their established Paradigm are referred to as Mainstream Academics.
This is a choice, and my statements are not judgmental, rather I simply state the facts from the "perspective of a Researcher, Sociologist, Historian".
There's vast time, work, and money, wasted engaging in the defending of Beliefs and Theories, all this a trait behavior directly associated with the Ego Mind. We each are free to hold our own Beliefs and Theories, but our Professiions/focus have Standards to uphold.
The Mature Minds/Higher Minds can hold a rapport, with mutual respect, and without the emotions that rise through the Lower/Ego Mind
▪ *Canadians truly have a much greater balance 8n their Thoughts/Behaviors, 8th the use of the Higher Mind, aka Mature Minded.*
Us Southern neighbors have opportunities for improvement on this subject.

PS;
Anthropology has long been an interest, at one point I read all the available modern books in the Clark County Library and in print availability through purchase. lol (My job required routine flights across the USA and Canada - I read a great deal.)
I also have an interest in Archaeology, but due to the subject mentioned, I would have found it most challenging to my nature. Particularly before 8 mastered Conscious Thought + applied Higher Mind. Even so, we all have our moments aka exposed nerves. 😉
Enjoy your Passion!

Awesome story. I hope to see one of ur finds someday on yt. Never give up. This field of work is so important to everyone no matter what your social standing is in life history amazes us all.
but you have no problem digging up graves in egypt right?
I'm an experienced archeological person and would LOVE to come help with this project!!!! I found a HUGE COLLECTION in S.C. previously not known. Everything from hunting, fishing, and farming tools
Amazing!
I’ve learned a lot in the past hour watching this…stunning…and as I live in BC, “so close” to home
I liked the similarities between Yukon and Norwegian indigenous people…fascinating.
Wow.
Really awesome, organic wood/plant fiber, copper are so perfect for time, the stone tools are well done. Oh man how wonderful that hat was.
This kind of study excites me more than searching for gold. To walk around the melting ice in search of artifacts from the past as shown in this video... that is high on my wish-list! I could spend weeks with my nose to the ground and be as happy as a kid in a candy store.
Well like my elders used to say..". don't talk about it be about it!"
I was thinking something like that too. I can see the archaeologists finding a gold nugget and saying "meh who cares?" Then "ooh look at the caribou dung! Hey there's a piece of wood here!"
@@mattmccormick8749 not that easy if you don't live in the Yukon or have permission from the First Nations elders lol
@@mattmccormick8749 I wish I could! If only I had the money...
This Documentary is amazing. Hopefully we get more of these
Fascinating finds, so well preserved!
This was an awesome video. The copper piece at the end was the most amazing thing I've seen. I would die to see it in real life.
Dear universe.. PLEASE PLEASE make more videos like THIS happen regularly.. instead of priceless gems that we have to scrounge around to find.. 🙏
LOVE this stuff.. going to watch it a few times so I don’t miss anything..
THANK YOU for making & posting this
The images are STUNNING 😍
Does the fact that we find human artifacts in places where the ice is melting indicate this is not the first time this ice has melted to this point?
No. Winter hunting. Are you trying to disprove climate change? Up until 10,000 years ago, and the last great Ice Age when NYC was buried under miles of ice, and probably no humans were in the American hemisphere, yeah, before that ice was probably not there.
People hunt during the winter on the snow and ice. I'm not sure what point you think you're making. During the summer the darker objects will absorb heat and sink into the ice. During the winter the objects will get covered with new snowfall. That's how things get buried in the ice.
@@squirlmy Not climate change generically but anthropogenic global warming. The fact that New York was there to be inhabited instead of under ice should be a clue. We’re in a warming trend, true enough, but it’s been happening for centuries and has nothing to do with CO2 emissions.
If you were interested in science, you wouldn’t jump all over someone asking a simple question. You seem to want to shut down discussion, not further it.
@@squirlmy The Earth is 4.5 billion years or so, and the climate has contantly been changing since its formation.
@@johnsmith-em2wp Yes, you are absolutely correct. Earth's climate has always been changing and will always continue to change. There have been periods of warming in the geologic past....long before man....that were much warmer than today. I wonder how the Anthropogenic climate change fear mongers will figure out how to blame us for that...!!!
This current period of warming is called "The Inter-Glacial Warming Period" and is what made it possible for Man to advance and develop in the Latitudes above and below the Equatorial zone with the longer growing seasons and learn to settle down and not have to depend on a Nomadic lifestyle to survive.
Planet Earth spends more time in an ice age; a glacial age, than a warming period. This is why the term " Inter-Glacial Warming Period".
I love this. The archeological findings are fascinating and I want so badly for native peoples anywhere to be able to reestablish their history and roots and have a say so in artifacts collected for scientific research.
I am a conscientious objector from Vietnam Invasion era from Minnesota part Anishinaabe and in awe of this documentary. It is one of the most interesting documentaries I have seen and so glad they are studying all remains, human too, and artifacts as these Archaeologists are at a very brief and vital time to find all they can and how much more is out there as future generations will not have this opportunity during this tragic fact of climate change. Now is the time and wish the scientists could receive more funding to learn of our past, all humanity's past too, when so much funding goes to the military. One aircraft carrier and its full fleet of ships involves 6,700 sailors on a budget of one million dollars a day.
I found it quite emotional seeing the artifacts appear out of the ice and mud. What a wonderful documentary - thank you.
Too bad this documentary is mixed with lie's ! Half of what they say is false , A lie actually ! One this they can never give us is proof of any kind ! And if you look around you will find contradictions in their claims ! And that's a fact. Please don't take my word for it , look for yourself ,... You will see the truth all on your own as I did . And so many other's did. Good luck and God bless.
they should leave them for future generations to find, who should also leave them where they are.
@@rm-gh1co That uncovered wood will rot away in no time. The ice preserved it until now. Even a mouse coming along and chewing the sinew bindings would ruin that craftsman's work forever.
Such an excellent documentary!!! Very interesting as well as informative! Thank you, Odyssey!!
I loved this documentary. Thank you for what you do.
Interesting documentary. Did I miss them, or are the titular tools not mentioned in it? I don't recall hearing about anything over about 4500 years old.
Excellent presentation, thanks so much. Amazing times to be alive.
I may be guilty of mis-underlistening but OTZI is 5300 years old, I heard 3300. He is a fascinating study as well and anyone excited by this video should take a look. LOTS of videos about him.
Here ya go from Wiki: Tissue samples from the corpse and other accompanying materials were later analyzed at several scientific institutions and their results unequivocally concluded that the remains belonged to someone who had lived between 3359 and 3105 BCE, or some 5,000 years ago.[5] More specific estimates stated that there was a 66% chance he died between 3239 and 3105 BC, a 33% chance he died between 3359 and 3294 BC, and a 1% chance he died between 3277 and 3268 BC.[6]
Bravo! Well done, Thank You all for your stunning work. Peace.
Great program. Love this kind of show. Would like it even better if it was 30 to 35 minutes long instead of 50 minutes. Seems it had a few long moments that could have been shortened. Thank you
G'day, any Australian knows exactly how those throwing sticks work. They are called "Woomeras". I have seen films of Aboriginals from northern Australia using them and they can hit a kangaroo or stingray from quite a long distance. The spears that Aboriginals use are much longer and thicker than these darts and have no feathers. Woomera is the name given to a guided missile testing facility in South Australia operating in the 50s-70s.
Shhhh mate. Thats secret Aussie business.
Yes nothing happens there. Nothing!
In North America, they are called an Atlatl.. Same concept, different design...
@@chancethompson8686 yes we have those sites here in the Pacific Northwest. We have visitors at the site and they can practice throwing. We have petroglyphs as well at the site near the Snake River.
Australian indigenous peoples used Woomera for as long as 40,000 years.
Very interesting program. I love docs. I love looking for this stuff and learning from it.
Can you imagine surviving that long ago that far north? It's fascinating.
I imagine they were nomadic, nobody able would stay that far north in the winter time
even worse, Europeans surviving the ice age. a time where ice was well over a mile thick over most of Europe.
Absolute ecstasy
This video is so awesomely informational I would never have thought about something like this. I know that humans have been on the planet for a long time but in areas like that very incredible to thank people lived in that harshest environment we are such sissies today thank you for the tour of what has been found and what has been learned about how people need to live and hunt
Unprecedented melting eh, i wonder how it compares to the late 1930's, or the peak of the medieval warm period, or the roman warm period, or the minoan warm period or the Holocene thermal optimum 6-8000 years ago, or the previous two interglacials which were significantly warmer than our current interglacial has ever been.
The word unprecedented is bandied around quite a lot these days, but whenever you check, you always find that in fact what is being described as unprecedented is quite normal in the longer term variability.
It does seem they did not explain how the man in Canada being 200-300 years old was buried under feet of ice. Often the Little Ice Age that hit North America in late 1770s is forgotten and that would be around his time.
Exactly. The earth naturally Warms and cools. This climate change scare tactic by scientists and politicians is bs per usual
@@rawdawgg_ read one of the thousands of studies on man induced climate change why don’t ya. or is that too political for you
@@rawdawgg_ what about meh feelings?🤣
@@badgerpa9 Not only North America..Europe suffered too !.
I liked the intro of the video because I do like history and I was looking for high quality documentaries. Cheers 🥂
Darned shame that the North American tribes are so anti science. Looks like today’s “natives” are afraid they might be proven to not be the descendants of these long dead people
At 2:18 - Carbon dating is a joke. About as reliable as a lie detector test. Already got this lack of credibility in less than three minutes and there's gobs more to come?
@@bobbyguest3906 i see no conflict between the well established science of radio carbon dating and the Bible. They are perfectly simpatico. God is all powerful and can do whatever He wants. Science is proof of God, not a challenge to God.
@@pamtnman1515 I didn't say anything about God that I remember. Was the carbon dating verified with a second or third test to verify the result? How many tests were taken of each relic?
@@bobbyguest3906 i dunno. You can certainly ask these scientists. They are reachable by email. Before you do that, you should be conversant with their practices. I myself am content with their representation of their results
Fascinating. Thank you for sharing this.
I am glad that the Original People get to control their history. They deserve to have a record of their past.
Excellent video.
Amazing, never heard of these discoveries before. Makes me think of the finding of Otzi in the Alps and my visit to the area almost ten years ago.
Richard King. It is hoped that you will also be able to visit here. Perhaps a volunteer to help find and locate finds that are now showing themselves, and share in the wonderfulness of such.
I wonder if they’re documenting the orientation of the darts and arrows. It’d be interesting to see, especially in the steeper sections, as it would demonstrate their tactics; were they hunting down, across, or up the slopes, or were they avoiding the slopes for the most part?
with the finds coming out of melting ice, that may be hard to determine. Flowing water from the ice melting may have moved them.
A lot of those dart points look like what we would call Bentons. Middle to late archaic in the southeastern US. As a collector and lover of Native history and archeology, this video was absolutely fascinating.
Just started watching this and found that those arrow head darts look like the one I have displayed a Cherokee Elder made, that I acquired from him many years ago. It looks the same. He did his work using the ancient methods. On the end is three feathers placed in an aerodynamic manner. He explained that these were thrown from another device and that they could travel very far, when I was first interested in the peace, he explained it was not a spear thrown from the hand but from another device. He was a kind man and I enjoyed sitting with him learning a bit about his craft. Pretty fascinating 🧐 connection to the Yukon and the Cherokee. Looking forward to the rest of this video. Really cool they found these so far north. Wow was just looking at Atlatl and people that throw them and they have the feathers wrong: they are attached with sinew only at the spine of the feathers and the main spines of the feathers is bowed for airflow. The feathers are not supposed to be attached like on an arrow. Brother Clayton made those as well and the spear / dart is made different for flight beyond what is being shown in the video. I’d assume the main shaft will not wobble with the proper feather placement, or I’m wrong. God’s Blessings 🙏🏼🕊️
Decided to measure if anyone’s interested Clayton was a Flint-knapper. This particular piece he made out of a straight bamboo shaft instead of carved wood like he did arrows. The piece is 72” long; 21/2” from the bottom is where the Turkey feathers begin attaching; their spines are 101/2” with 9” of split in half and trimmed straight feathers that are squared off on both ends; the spines are attached with sinew only on the spines and they sorta bow outwards. The arrowhead on the piece is 3” long with a rounded point instead of pointy and it’s a little over 11/2 wide. The jointed bamboo shaft is 1/2” across / 2” around and the natural joints are 8” to 9”. Bamboo doesn’t deteriorate like wood either and it’s stronger. The piece is very solid I doubt it wobbles when thrown in the traditional manner.
I worked as field tech. Over the year I did that, we hiked miles and dug I don't know how many holes. Yet we found very little. I'd love to work on a project like this.
how long ago was it? Climate change is real.
Me too!
I live on the Olympic Peninsula, Washington state, USA. I have hiked many miles in the Olympic mountains. I have come across boot/moccasin print in stone, along with what looks to be walking stick impressions, v shaped stone formations, and stone steps. All in the vicinity of a mountain that resembles a pyramid. I took pictures, but didn't really know what I was looking at.
This really opened my eyes to what I saw. Now I have to go back. Thank you!!
I am still upset that we have not got a big dick pic carved in the ancient mud

This is scary and fascinating at the same time. The artifacts are wonderful historical record, but the glacial melting is terrifying.
Why? Climate always changes, and it's not the end of the world. And it's been warming for about 800 years since the little Ice age. Not just the past 150 years. Glaciers melting have been recorded since the British Royal Society has been around. The planet has been naturally warming and there is 0 ability to say by how much humans have effected that. It may be less, far less than 5% even. And none of it's terrifying. What's terrifying is the ability of politicians to think they can do anything about it with your money. Because they can't, and shouldn't, considering there's no such thing as a static climate.
What's the proper amount of co2 in the atmosphere? Back to 180ppm? Just because that's what it was 150 years ago? Only 40ppm above plants dying when the average amount since life began to evolve is over 1000ppm? It's all arbitrary and a way for politicians to tax you without a clue of what to spend the money on besides the greed of politicians.
Why? It was not covered in ice at one point obviously.
That is so amazing and wonderful to see these weapons from so many years ago ❤️
Wonderful documentary! I loved learning in this way!
Fantastic Work, now let's get planting trees so this doesn't happen again! I really want to see if they can make a connection across the Northern Oceans.
It just proves that weather changes greatly and has since the beginning of history.
The First Nation people in this video are wonderful! You can just feel the kindness in their soul seeping into you with their voice. My deepest respect.
So 9,000 years ago weather was far much better than today, and humans could live where now there is just ice and deadly cold temperatures. Amazing.
When you start getting heavy into geology, especially ancient geology, you start to see some major inconsistencies between what climate scientists and geologists say.
But for some reason the weather changing today is your fault😂pay more tax! Green initiative will save the world!😏💸
Climate change is a natural thing. However humans are definitely speeding up the warming climate and will be detrimental to future generations. I don't know the exact solution but our pollution is a problem.
the part where the woman says ''we werent going to let anyone, scientists or whomever dictate to us, or tell us, how we were going to be treating our own relative''.. for one, not everyone in any tribe all shares the same ideas about archeological remains so who does 'we' really mean because even in this documentary one of the descendants said she believed he would have wanted to share what he had to offer, for two, many scientists actually are from indigenous tribes, I'm sure plenty from their tribe of that area, they could take the lead, and three, how can you claim someone shared your same tribal customs when the body is SO many thousands of years old? They may have had a different religion and different language, different customs, etc. Thankfully no tribal group claimed Otzi so that the whole world may enjoy him, rather than him just be put into the ground to decompose entirely. This is something I have a hard time understanding. If people are trying to take the body all the way to London or somewhere then yeah, that's rude, but if it's kept local and is cherished, what's wrong with that. Science is real, knowledge is lasting and can be passed down and shared. i've always loved archeology and thought it would be amazing if my remains were found thousands of years from now, like the Siberian Ice Maiden, preserved or mummified somehow, and I personally would be bummed if my descendants (I have no children though and never will) decided I should be burned and put into the ground. I would want to share what I had to offer.
a bunch of sentimental women should not be in charge.
Keep those body destroying women off the ice, and away from these monumental discoveries.
i wonder why no dna to see what tribe he was from.
agree. What they are going to do with the remains of their "ancestor"? Bury it? How much knowledge for THEM will be lost...unless they have a way of preserving it - they still have to let a scientist make notes...I don't get it. The way she talked was like "neener neener you can't touch this whitey".
I was kinda watching this in the background, so for not paying attention to it in it's entirety, it took me about 2/3rds of the way through to realize they were interjecting some Western woke/progressive crap into this documentary
This was really interesting 🤔, cool that the one guy has relatives living today. Really awesome 💯
Thank you for your service. God Bless you 🙏. Welcome home.
Pretty strong faith for people to believe the Earth isn't older than 6,000 years old with all the preponderance of evidence against that belief.
It’s not a preponderance of evidence. It’s “beyond a reasonable doubt,” a higher standard.
Yes, Atlatl darts can be hurled with great accuracy. I have watched an athlete practice with his Atlatl with the darts having safer archery-type target points, when I lived in Central Florida in the USA. I can see where this would be an outstanding hunting weapon for people in ancient Canada as well as probably all of the ancient Americas.
Aussie aboriginals call it a woomera, been using it for 000s of years and some still use it today
@@thebob3712 true as God
@@macawism Woomera been around longer... and work better! > Pam
Makes you wonder, why the Atlatl ( thanks for spelling it out for us) did not become as common as the bow and arrow. I know that the atlatl was found if not used in Santa Barbara islands and found in archaeological sites. But legends have atlatls in use. where as the bow and arrow are used. It certainly gives more credence to Pacific Island cultures that they made to Alaska and came back to Hawaii. Of course , I am stating this so i can be corrected. just love the world we live in.
Also modern day Atlatl equipment can be purchased at some archery supply stores and online. The Three Rivers Archery Supply online site has or had Atlatl supplies.
These finds are extremely important as ancient projectiles rarely ever are attached with ancient tendon and adhesives on original wood or bone handles or spears. This really improves our knowledge on these ancient technologies. It helps scientists to understand other cultures lithics and how they may have been attached to materials that generally decompose. Very fine video on these remarkable discoveries. Love to throw spears at targets with an atlatl for many years. Lethal weapon and requires great skill. I also am encourage with government cooperation with the first nation. The first nation having their rights honored also forces scientific research to have a window of closure rather than having human ethnic remains languish in the basement of a university or museum at times neglected for generations. These tribes customs and wishes should be honored and respected.
I herd one time that one adhesive that was used was meted deer hooves,idk if it works never tried it
Yassss , ugh what I wouldn’t give to be able to be there and dig up some amazing mind blowing things like these.
