Why do you promote pseudoscientific nonsense? "Lost civilizations", the very concept is silly and unscientific, full of 19th century romanticism revived in these empty times. Thought you were better indeed.
Gobekli Tepe was not deliberately covered. The fill is highly stratified, indicating non-human erosional processes in that naturally sort materials as they're deposited. *IF* it was done deliberately it would be highly mixed and random. Hancock should be intelligent and honest enough to admit this If he has the slightest understanding of geology and erosional deposition.

I read Underworld randomly within a year or two of its release. Since then I’ve been hooked on Grahams work. I don’t always agree with every extrapolation he expresses but I do see the logical conclusions he makes. Additionally, he has long proposed a major cataclysmic event, most likely a meteor strike, at about 23k years ago and even predicted a pretty specific area, which just recently turned out to be fact. Do not discredit this man and do not let entire staffs of archeological depts discredit him so that their lifetimes of work are proven wrong time and time again.
Okay so when I first heard of this site it was said to be discovered by a farmer while moving a plow who hit a stone. Now that is no longer a part of the story in it's discovery. All credit goes to researchers. What the hell is going on here?
It was "discovered" in the 1960's (pretty sure) and was determined by archeologist then not to be very significant. Claus Schmidt actually dug and examined it in the 90's making all the huge finds.
I'd love to hear what Graham has to say about Pinarbasi Hoyuk, which some are saying is even OLDER at 16,000 yrs! If you have him on again, please ask him!
The company in charge of the site is funded by the World Economic Forum. They stopped further excavations, planted tress, and poured concrete roads to "save it for future generation". Also there's a similar site miles away but I'm not sure how old it is.
There’s actually strong genetic evidence supporting the idea that agriculture was introduced to Western Europe. So Grahams’s bashing on archeologists at the end is just dumb
Please get David Wegrow “the Dawn of Everything” to further this exploration into a new history of civilization. His co-authored book is a paradigm changer.
Yes! He even talks about reading and believing GH as a young teenager....then he went to college and stopped with the fantasies. And he's not a covert white supremacist either.
Lex, next time you have anyone on talking about Gobekli Tepe, ask them what new archeology has been done since Claus passed away. 0. All theyve been doing is build visitor centers and parking lots around it.
I've been interested in the continued excavation at Gobekli Tepe since I first read an article by Klaus Schmidt in 2012. I've since seen interviews with Lee Clare, current head of excavation at the site. It's fascinating how much has been uncovered and how, just in the past decade and a half, this and other sites that are included in the "Tas Tepeler" culture from about 12,000 to 8500 ybp, have changed our understanding of the types of revolutions that were happening. No offense Lex, but I don't find GH's perspective very valuable. He is always attempting to use whatever documentation that's done by archaeologists to support his foregone conclusion about an ice-age culture and Atlantis. And while doing this he will imply that archaeological researchers are somehow inept, corrupt, or somehow indoctrinated to the point that they will ignore evidence that he finds obvious. I've enjoyed your series with Ed Barnhart and a few others.
For those of you unware, Milo has an amazing channel discussing this very significant site and other archaeological marvels along with dispelling rumors. ruclips.net/video/xJU973IbG7I/видео.html&ab_channel=Miniminuteman
Small quibble...Gobekli Tepe is the oldest megalithic site of which we are currently aware. There are still older sites in Turkey and other places around the world. Mainstream archeology has a vested interested in protecting the status quo to protect their own research grants and tenured university positions.
That's stupid, who do you think would research new findings?? mainstream archeologists... Every student that becomes an archeologists dreams of finding a new city, a new tomb, to become a new Schliemann. New amazing findings would bring funds to the entire domain...
LOL.. that is so ass backwards. You have no idea how grants or science in general works. Imagine even mouthing or typing the absurdity that all the thousands of graduate students and PHds in Anthropology, Archaeology, History, or any other area of science 'DON'T' want to make a new discovery and totally just want to 'protect the status quo'.. It is so absurdly and obviously stupid. There is one guy that has a vested interest and that keeps needing people not to trust academia to make a very very lucrative living though.. and thats Graham Hancock.
What's obvious with Hancock's theories is that his peers are pissed at his success and Tv shows, not his actual opinions. If he's right or wrong actually means F*ck all to joe public.
@@itsnot_stupid_ifitworks Wanna know why? Cause these places have been locked down by the government and no research can be done at this moment in time. Star alignment, like every other megalithic sight has? Nice one!
@@itsnot_stupid_ifitworks I have three friends in two states and their houses line up in a straight line on a map, I'm not shire if my friends are aliens or Gods but I'll keep you posted once I find out.
The site of Göbekli Tepe is about the size of a Walmart parking lot. It contains a few hundred circular rooms 5-15m diameter and a few hundred pillars ranging from 3m tall to 7m tall. It was active for about 1500 years. That is all the time that past since the collapse of the Roman empire. A single extended family that built a new room in very decade or so could have built that site. Pretending that it is somehow the sign of an advanced civilization is ridiculous.
I get so sick the lining up with astronomical bodies talk. The continents were not in their current position then. Still moving in fact. Plus wobble, and other major factors. Turns out the vent shaft’s in the great pyramid aren’t even straight, point to nothing. The solstice has changed constantly, doesn’t matter anyway, back then time wasn’t a construct. Agriculture didn’t exist. Wild grains and roots were different depending on hemisphere.
@@cmo5807 other than your childish “lol” I appreciate the effort. At least your thinking…….but,only recently and only on a few well funded projects. And yes, it’s also a less than exact science so still inconclusive. I’m well aware of any and all scientific studies regarding ancient history. I’m second generation in the field. Please enjoy your day
I think he’s pretty humble about not knowing what happened man. People who assume they know completely what happened 12k years ago seem more insufferable to me. To each their own.
Why have this quack on? Lex, you usually have professional historians, scientists or archaeologists on. Don’t be a Joe, “let’s have every tin-foil hat conspiracy junky on my show” Rogan.
Do better Lex. Stop giving this grifter a platform. I honestly believe if it wasnt for Graham Hancocks accent, he never would have gained popularity in the USA.
Here is the problem, this Hancock guys has been spewing stuff for years that belongs on an episode of Big foot hunters. He opined for years the Ark of the covenant is in a church in Ethiopia. Unlike a real scientist, he just moves onto something else when proved wrong. Thoughtful people cant do that.
Um at least he is asking questions no one is asking. He isn't assuming just presenting the information and providing a sound logical reasoning. All other archeologist seem to know all the answers. What about the stone vases? The precision required is beyond anything we can attempt today. Stone melting requires 1k Celsius. What tech produces that temperature?
He reported on the local belief that the Ark is in that chapel in Axum; he didn't make it up. Whatever you think of Graham Hancock, this isn't the best example of his opinions. Criticize whomever you like, but please do so with some accuracy.
@@MrBrachiatingApe Just repeating things that are nonsense is enough, and he does it in such a way that makes the uneducated in the filed think that it may be a valid theory.
It's amazing that this grifter still gets interviews after being debunked over and over again. Yet few "supporters" of GH will take the time to read, listen to, or watch folks with real credentials tear his theories apart until there are nothing but shreds of his imagination left. Lex is just looking for views and subs by having duds like this on his show to appeal to the incel crowd.
He is asking question from oberservations. Logical reasoning isn't gaslighting. Examples: stone vases that fit in your hand? Melting stone at 1k Celsius tech? Drilling into granite tech? Explain your logical reasoning for this then?
@@victorgarcia4399 No stones were melted. Many experiments have been done debunking the claim you cannot drill into granite with bronze tools. And I'm not sure what small vases you're talking about. The ones unchartedX likes to promote as lost high technology?
@_MikeJon_ stone walls are melted on many sites around the world. Stone vases the size of your hand are measured with exact precision. Please look into it further. This is what I mean by dismissing everything without even looking.
@@victorgarcia4399 You cannot melt stone and have it turn back into stone. This is physically impossible. When you melt stone it will turn to glass. The process is called vitrification. Erosion is what you and may people claim to be a melting process. It's not. I know exactly what you're talking about. The stone vase which was scanned didn't even have symmetrical handles. The gaslighting around that experiment is laughable.
Lex, rather than have a charlatan like Graham Hancock on, I recommend that you invite Milo Rossi (miniminuteman: ruclips.net/video/-iCIZQX9i1A/видео.html&ab_channel=Miniminuteman) to actually discuss archaeology, history, and the dangers of conflating something we don't yet understand as posing "supernatural" consequence and grasping at straws to support any narratives rooted in superstition.
They move the rocks easily - They put a pool of mercury floating on the floor with a positive charge , then they line the bottom of the cut stone blocks with coating of liquid mercury with a negative charge - this then repels the stone from the ground with the postive charge mercury- the negative charged mercury hits the postive charged mercury and creates a hoovering effect for the stone , if you have ever seen magnets then you would understand that its how it works. I have tried it and have moved 40 tons blocks around , its so easy , they just glide around. I have taken 40 ton blocks and hoovered them over hills then back down the other side , pushed one for 100 miles with only a fingertip touch as it glides like a hooverboard.
Soo, last I heard about Gobekli Tepe apparently they had shut down further excavation, was I mislead? Did something change? Or is the difficulties around the site and it's excavation a reality? If anyone has any sources that would be much appreciated.
They say they're saving it for future generations. Bright insight has good videos on it. He shows that the company in charge is funded by the world economic forum and the structure they built to preserve it isn't even good, it was filled with snow in the winter. If you look at when it was being excavated and now it's changed a lot. Estimated only 10% is excavated.
I don’t accept these explanations at all, in fact I’ll say they’re ludicrous! Imagine building a site like this 10,000 years ago with primitive tools and perhaps thousands of men. We are told those men had time to be hunter gatherers while simultaneously building this epic megalith? No way! And many of those men would have had families with them that also needed to be fed. It’s not possible to feed thousands of people in a tightly packed group by hunting and gathering within a confined area. Now imagine having primitive living conditions & thinking that your most important task in life is to build a megalithic site for the next 3000 years with all your progeny also contributing. It makes ZERO sense!
Flint Dibble misrepresented and lied like most of you “know-it-all’s” do. One thing I’ve learned is that we’re not allowed to question anything unless we’re credentialed in the proper field of study.
Carbon dating is used now for almost everything old that people want to date. It is taken as fact and used as evidence to gather information on the world and past civilizations. However, Carbon dating is at best a good theory, and that is all it is, a theory. Too many people forget the definition of a theory.
@@sociallypatterneddefect9580 No not exact, there are factors that effect it, but it's typically within 100-1000 years, depending on how old the sample is. But whether or not the dates are actually accurate, carbon dating is a measurement that's only valuable when compared to other carbon dates. Even if the scale was wrong, it would without question demonstrate one number is higher or lower than another.
I think you are confusing scientific theory with hypothesis. Or are gravitation or quantum mechanics less real because they are a "theory"? What exactly is wrong with carbon dating? Do you not believe in radioactivity because its just a theory?
@@sociallypatterneddefect9580 there are so few atoms to count; even a little extra carbon from contamination will throw off the results significantly. A million-year-old sample contaminated by only a tiny amount of carbon could yield an invalid age of 40,000 years, for example.
@@evbbjones7 If Graven's calculations are correct, carbon dating as we know it today will no longer be reliable by the year 2030. Which means scientists won't be able to use carbon dating to distinguish between new materials and artifacts that are hundreds or thousands of years old.
I’ve been following Graham for years now and I’m proud of his maturing both presenting information and speaking. He’s using much better and careful wording instead of making dead flat assumptions and wishful thinking like before. Speaking much more precise about actual discoveries, not bouncing around and masking truths to comform to “there must be” narrative. Hes only looking at the present now and the facts. Nice to see.
Just how precisely must a stone be set to align With the star Siruis If it is still to be precise after 11,000 years of Continental drift? I’m not buying it.
Just so you know in 12,000 years the tectonic plate would have shifted about an eighth of a mile. I encourage you to go outside and observe that measurement and see how inconsequential that shift is.
Hancock is a pseudo archaeologist who makes shows and sells books. But the idea that the kind of entertainment he offers is anything like a serious problem is so narrow minded.
@@infinidominion Yes I hold three degrees including a doctorate. My masters degree is in anthropology. What are your credentials? Remember this lesson in epistemology.
@@King_Koolkaine Remember this lesson as higher education is not for everyone. I’m betting that you would never allow someone with no medical degree to perform surgery on you.
Lot of low IQ posts here. At least he is asking questions no one else is. When does archealogist become an expert in stone melting or carving? They're not. Stone vases the size of your hand? What tech can produce that ? Melting stone structures require 1k ceclius. What tech can do that? Archeologists simply dismiss it and give BS answers that aren't valid.
It touched his taint😂😂 besides the universe and more are only around 6000 yrs old. Not the millions or billions of years they want you to believe. You'll see when they find human fossils along the dinosaurs. The ones that have been found have been hidden from us but the truth will soon be out in the open and governments can't stop it only slow it down. The reason is they don't want you to know about our creator. They want that type of knowledge and power to themselves. It's an evil world don't be deceived by Satan and his slves and followers. If you want real answers just read the Bible
Gobekli Tepe was the home of Adam and Eve according to my Father. He said the pocket of civilization there wasn't very nice. Adam and Eve in the Bible are an allegory to a story about pubic hair. ie.., the fig leaf who knew?! ruclips.net/video/T1axIdfnla8/видео.html
Eden was surrounded by the Tigris and the Euphrates which are in Iraq. Here's one attempt to explain the Gobekli Tepe Tigris/Euphrates Cunundrum ruclips.net/video/8ZqYO2IVHtI/видео.html
Graham has to waste his valuable time defending his character from such people as Flint Dibble. A man who tries to pass himself off as an intellectual, one of the so-called "experts" and claims to be a man of science; but clearly a small man, of bad character, and small mind... and he knows it. So sad, I pity men like Dibble, they truly are pathetic human beings, and waste the time and energy of great charactered people such as Graham Hancock. Instead of have to make this video defending his character from small minded men such as Dibble, Graham could have placed his energy on more of the brilliant work he produces for the world... but that's how these , charlatans operate; force you waste your time defending yourself from such character associations, and rebuttals of truth to their lies... and to think people like Flint Dibble, and company are well paid to educate our children, to educate them? Or more likely to stuff their minds with BS!
@@evbbjones7Because the same “credentialed and established” hive minds that back Dibble try to down Graham. Hasn’t the past four years shown you anything about the amount of effort establishments will put into censoring people?
I want to hear him talk about his entire book claiming there's an ancient Egyptian Civilization on Mars. Immediately followed up by him claiming Flint Dibble's facts are wrong.
The elder parent race that the Nazis almost proved existed.. the root race of all humanity.. the watchers in the Bible… native Americans had their version.. Greek titans.. etc.
Oh FFS... Come on Lex... You cannot be promoting this scam artist grifter. Flint made mince meat out of him at papa Joe's podcast, and does not invite him back as it was embarrassing. He is doing the rounds on other podcasts spewing the same nonsense. Sad to see you are promoting him.
Oh c mon, Hancock always wrote fiction. We obviously know maybe .1% of ancient history. Lots we do not know and for ANY expert to say they know are liars. Hancock has ideas and looks at things from outside inteligencia. He NEVER said he is an expert or knows for sure. He just knows we should question and search for understanding. Eistien was a HUGE proponent of mind experments. Just propose an ideal and try to disprove it. If you cant maybe it deserves insite. So grow up society and humans are flawed liars m, sonetime a different perspective even IF its not right can open doors to great discoveries. So get off ur high horse and realize ur on a rock going 64k mph through an infinite universe
flint really didnt do anything tbh he said theres no evidence for a lost civilization and graham basically said theres not enough of the world looked at to disprove it
@@Holton67 no. Because he knows everything he us saying is nonsense but promotes the same crap over and over to make money. I am British. I was reading his books in the 90s when in University. We all were, because they were fun, pseudo archeology fiction, like Von Deniken. He is a journalist, not historian/archaeologist. I had forgotten his existence until Joe "I believe anything that sounds sciency" Rogan started bringing him on. And now he is making Netflix series.. No one anywhere in the world takes him seriously, apart from Rogan fans. Who after the Flint episode has stopped inviting him...

It's fascinating how much has been uncovered and how, just in the past decade and a half, this and other sites that are included in the "Tas Tepeler" culture from about 12,000 to 8500 ybp, have changed our understanding of the types of revolutions that were happening.
No offense Lex, but I don't find GH's perspective very valuable. He is always attempting to use whatever documentation that's done by archaeologists to support his foregone conclusion about an ice-age culture and Atlantis. And while doing this he will imply that archaeological researchers are somehow inept, corrupt, or somehow indoctrinated to the point that they will ignore evidence that he finds obvious. I've enjoyed your series with Ed Barnhart and a few others.
Did Dibble misrepresent information during their debate? Or is no one willing to bring this up?
@@King_Koolkaine So I guess you're just asking questions.
@@russellmillar7132 Is that a question?

Mark my word will be finding more citied across the Sahara.
These are just elaborate adverts at this point. We've long lost touch with material reality.
Small quibble...Gobekli Tepe is the oldest megalithic site of which we are currently aware. There are still older sites in Turkey and other places around the world. Mainstream archeology has a vested interested in protecting the status quo to protect their own research grants and tenured university positions.
That's stupid, who do you think would research new findings?? mainstream archeologists... Every student that becomes an archeologists dreams of finding a new city, a new tomb, to become a new Schliemann. New amazing findings would bring funds to the entire domain...
LOL.. that is so ass backwards. You have no idea how grants or science in general works. Imagine even mouthing or typing the absurdity that all the thousands of graduate students and PHds in Anthropology, Archaeology, History, or any other area of science 'DON'T' want to make a new discovery and totally just want to 'protect the status quo'.. It is so absurdly and obviously stupid.
There is one guy that has a vested interest and that keeps needing people not to trust academia to make a very very lucrative living though.. and thats Graham Hancock.
What's obvious with Hancock's theories is that his peers are pissed at his success and Tv shows, not his actual opinions.
If he's right or wrong actually means F*ck all to joe public.
It’s a Stargate, no doubt in my mind.
Just in case you forgot what the topic is... Göbekli Tepe.
Taking shots at the end 🤦🏻♂️ This guy..
Oldest megalithic sight, weve found.....
Others have been found to be older in the area. But he's not going to tell you that because that will mess up his star alignment story
@@itsnot_stupid_ifitworks Wanna know why? Cause these places have been locked down by the government and no research can be done at this moment in time. Star alignment, like every other megalithic sight has? Nice one!

The site of Göbekli Tepe is about the size of a Walmart parking lot. It contains a few hundred circular rooms 5-15m diameter and a few hundred pillars ranging from 3m tall to 7m tall. It was active for about 1500 years. That is all the time that past since the collapse of the Roman empire. A single extended family that built a new room in very decade or so could have built that site.
Pretending that it is somehow the sign of an advanced civilization is ridiculous.

I honestly believe if it wasnt for Graham Hancocks accent, he never would have gained popularity in the USA.
Here is the problem, this Hancock guys has been spewing stuff for years that belongs on an episode of Big foot hunters. He opined for years the Ark of the covenant is in a church in Ethiopia. Unlike a real scientist, he just moves onto something else when proved wrong. Thoughtful people cant do that.
Um at least he is asking questions no one is asking. He isn't assuming just presenting the information and providing a sound logical reasoning. All other archeologist seem to know all the answers. What about the stone vases? The precision required is beyond anything we can attempt today. Stone melting requires 1k Celsius. What tech produces that temperature?
Well he and many others think it's in Ethiopia... that's a horrid example. Many scientists, scholars, and so on believe tbat... wow hi hater
@@cmo5807 "Many scientists, scholars, and so on believe tbat." can you name say five? I didn't think so.
He reported on the local belief that the Ark is in that chapel in Axum; he didn't make it up. Whatever you think of Graham Hancock, this isn't the best example of his opinions.

It's amazing that this grifter still gets interviews after being debunked over and over again. Yet few "supporters" of GH will take the time to read, listen to, or watch folks with real credentials tear his theories apart until there are nothing but shreds of his imagination left. Lex is just looking for views and subs by having duds like this on his show to appeal to the incel crowd.

Hey that’s my mutter’s name!
The amount of gaslighting and misinformation this man puts out is amazing.
He is asking question from oberservations. Logical reasoning isn't gaslighting. Examples: stone vases that fit in your hand? Melting stone at 1k Celsius tech? Drilling into granite tech? Explain your logical reasoning for this then?
@@victorgarcia4399 No stones were melted. Many experiments have been done debunking the claim you cannot drill into granite with bronze tools. And I'm not sure what small vases you're talking about. The ones unchartedX likes to promote as lost high technology?
@_MikeJon_ stone walls are melted on many sites around the world. Stone vases the size of your hand are measured with exact precision. Please look into it further. This is what I mean by dismissing everything without even looking.
@@victorgarcia4399 You cannot melt stone and have it turn back into stone. This is physically impossible. When you melt stone it will turn to glass. The process is called vitrification. Erosion is what you and may people claim to be a melting process. It's not. I know exactly what you're talking about. The stone vase which was scanned didn't even have symmetrical handles. The gaslighting around that experiment is laughable.
@victorgarcia4399 why do idiots who have been fooled always insist on speaking of "logic."
Ahh Göbekli Tepe drinking game i dare you hhh. PS i love Graham .
Where did all of the GH haters come from? Wow! It's like someone pissed in their collective Wheaties!
Well, he talks without any evidence to support his hypothosis.
Lex, rather than have a charlatan like Graham Hancock on, I recommend that you invite Milo Rossi (miniminuteman: ruclips.net/video/-iCIZQX9i1A/видео.html&ab_channel=Miniminuteman) to actually discuss archaeology, history, and the dangers of conflating something we don't yet understand as posing "supernatural" consequence and grasping at straws to support any narratives rooted in superstition.

@@evbbjones7 cute
Graham is a looney
For the first time ever, FIRST!!!!
They move the rocks easily - They put a pool of mercury floating on the floor with a positive charge , then they line the bottom of the cut stone blocks with coating of liquid mercury with a negative charge - this then repels the stone from the ground with the postive charge mercury- the negative charged mercury hits the postive charged mercury and creates a hoovering effect for the stone , if you have ever seen magnets then you would understand that its how it works. I have tried it and have moved 40 tons blocks around , its so easy , they just glide around. I have taken 40 ton blocks and hoovered them over hills then back down the other side , pushed one for 100 miles with only a fingertip touch as it glides like a hooverboard.
Sure you did dude
Cute at best .
Affirmations based on coincidences not evidence.
Why do you keep promoting this BS?!
They found titanium alloys in the stone…oh wait no they didn’t. Just rocks.
Soo, last I heard about Gobekli Tepe apparently they had shut down further excavation, was I mislead? Did something change? Or is the difficulties around the site and it's excavation a reality? If anyone has any sources that would be much appreciated.
They say they're saving it for future generations. Bright insight has good videos on it. He shows that the company in charge is funded by the world economic forum and the structure they built to preserve it isn't even good, it was filled with snow in the winter. If you look at when it was being excavated and now it's changed a lot. Estimated only 10% is excavated.
Nice to see wide spread skepticism in the comments about this grifter who actually believes his own confabulations.
It is NOT the oldest megalithic site in the world.
There are a few older ones.
And these have been known for a while now.
Do try to keep up.
Warning: Playing the Gobekli Tepe drinking game to this video is NOT advised. You will perish. 😅
He got dribbled
I don’t accept these explanations at all, in fact I’ll say they’re ludicrous! Imagine building a site like this 10,000 years ago with primitive tools and perhaps thousands of men. We are told those men had time to be hunter gatherers while simultaneously building this epic megalith? No way! And many of those men would have had families with them that also needed to be fed. It’s not possible to feed thousands of people in a tightly packed group by hunting and gathering within a confined area. Now imagine having primitive living conditions & thinking that your most important task in life is to build a megalithic site for the next 3000 years with all your progeny also contributing. It makes ZERO sense!
Flint Dibble misrepresented and lied like most of you “know-it-all’s” do. One thing I’ve learned is that we’re not allowed to question anything unless we’re credentialed in the proper field of study.
Carbon dating is used now for almost everything old that people want to date. It is taken as fact and used as evidence to gather information on the world and past civilizations. However, Carbon dating is at best a good theory, and that is all it is, a theory. Too many people forget the definition of a theory.
Fairytales
Carbon dating is exact isn't it? Only organic material
@@sociallypatterneddefect9580 No not exact, there are factors that effect it, but it's typically within 100-1000 years, depending on how old the sample is. But whether or not the dates are actually accurate, carbon dating is a measurement that's only valuable when compared to other carbon dates. Even if the scale was wrong, it would without question demonstrate one number is higher or lower than another.
I think you are confusing scientific theory with hypothesis. Or are gravitation or quantum mechanics less real because they are a "theory"? What exactly is wrong with carbon dating? Do you not believe in radioactivity because its just a theory?
@@sociallypatterneddefect9580 there are so few atoms to count; even a little extra carbon from contamination will throw off the results significantly. A million-year-old sample contaminated by only a tiny amount of carbon could yield an invalid age of 40,000 years, for example.
@@evbbjones7 If Graven's calculations are correct, carbon dating as we know it today will no longer be reliable by the year 2030. Which means scientists won't be able to use carbon dating to distinguish between new materials and artifacts that are hundreds or thousands of years old.
I hope the USA dont go an invade that too 😅
Of course we are that’s where the stargate is buried.

I’ve been following Graham for years now and I’m proud of his maturing both presenting information and speaking. He’s using much better and careful wording instead of making dead flat assumptions and wishful thinking like before. Speaking much more precise about actual discoveries, not bouncing around and masking truths to comform to “there must be” narrative. Hes only looking at the present now and the facts. Nice to see.

Oh c mon, Hancock always wrote fiction. We obviously know maybe .1% of ancient history. Lots we do not know and for ANY expert to say they know are liars. Hancock has ideas and looks at things from outside inteligencia. He NEVER said he is an expert or knows for sure. He just knows we should question and search for understanding. Eistien was a HUGE proponent of mind experments. Just propose an ideal and try to disprove it. If you cant maybe it deserves insite. So grow up society and humans are flawed liars m, sonetime a different perspective even IF its not right can open doors to great discoveries.
