    When you are one step ahead of the crowd, you are a genius.
    Two steps ahead, and you are deemed a crackpot.

    Forbidden Archaeology Documentary 2018 Ancient Ruins That Defy Mainstream History


    Ancient mysterious ruins have been discovered all over the world, how could these stones have been cut so precise by ancient humans? Some refer to these ancient ruins as the result of 'Impossible' Ancient Engineering. Could it be possible that there is much more to the history of this planet than we are being taught? For years, historians and archaeologists have absolutely marveled at these incredibly huge megalith and asked did ancient civilizations have a technology so advanced we still don't understand it.

    The two flinty syllables strike at the imagination like the sudden hard beat of an Andean drum. Cities of gold; sun worship; virgin sacrifice. The stuff of legend. Legends that for the most part remain hidden in the impenetrable no-man’s land of Peru’s high country.

    For the better part of 400 years people have searched the deep canyons & towering ice peaks of these mist-covered cloud forests trying to locate the lost cities of the Inca. They were all after one thing; gold.

    Any gold would do but there was one thing desired above all others, the Great Golden Disc of the Sun. The most sacred of all Inca relics. The Inca Holy Grail. It is in search of this Holy Grail that David Adams goes on his journey to Puncuyoc, sacred Sister City of Machu Picchu; the city sought but never found by Hiram Bingham.

    Ancient India Puzzling Temple Architecture This Stone Work Defies The Tools of It's Era


    India's huge temple complexes are numerous, and all are steeped in mystery. The skill required to cut these stones is simply remarkable. Baffled scholars have desperately tried to explain them, often ignoring the obvious evidence and ignoring the historical mythology that goes with them. The Temples of Ancient India are so diverse and plentiful you could do a documentary a day for year and still have some left over. We have however, whittle them down to the most unique, the most unexplained, and the most awe inspiring of them all. Join us as we delve into the realms of living mythology encased in stone.

    Strange Metal Relics Hidden In The Queen's Chamber... Mysterious Artifacts!

    There is a certain perception of the Great Pyramid as an utterly void arrangement of empty halls and chambers, strangely bereft of artifacts and inscriptions that might offer clues to its construction. In 1992, however, German engineer Rudolf Gantenbrink and his team offered modern-day viewers their first glimpse of metal artifacts original to the Great Pyramid by sending a compact rover into the southern shaft of the Queen’s Chamber. What they discovered was fascinating.

    Surya Siddhanta, 2 Million Years old Book on Astronomy


    The Surya Siddhanta is an incredible testimony to the advanced thinking of the ancient Indians. In this text, one can find the roots of trigonometry, as well as essential mathematical inventions, such as standard notation and the decimal system. In addition, the text describes gravity for a millennium before Sir Isaac Newton developed his theory in 1687. He explains the sidereal revolutions and how planets move eastward. Accurately calculate the size and position of distant planets, the duration of a tropical year and the amount of time that has passed since its creation. Finally, in his discussion about how time passes at different speeds and under different circumstances, it contains the seeds of relativity.

    " In the modern history of Ancient Egypt, new world-headline-making discoveries are rare. On 60 Minutes, a royal tomb full of golden treasure that is likely to be bigger and grander than the discovery of the famous boy king, Tutankhamen. Renowned archaeologist John Romer believes he's found the tomb of the long lost Pharaoh, Herihor. Along with the King and his priceless relics, there could also be all of Ancient Egypt's missing Queens. It's an ambitious quest that takes us to a secret desert valley and could transform what we know about these exotic and remarkable people "

    Scientists discovered an ancient Mayan city hidden under the Guatemalan jungle using aerial laser mapping, which detected thousands of hidden structures in the Peten region, suggesting its population was millions more than previously thought. The mapping detected about 60,000 individual structures, including four major Mayan ceremonial centres with plazas and pyramids. Archaeologists in the region are overwhelmed with such a large discovery

    Most Mysterious Archaeological Artifacts Scientists Still Can't Explain



    When you go to look at a historical artifact in a museum, it will be accompanied by a plaque that tells you what it is and where it came from. In some museums, you might even get an audio recording or a guided tour to provide you with more detail. Not every discovery comes with an explanation, though! Even with all the information at our disposal in the modern age, there are some things that are best scientists and experts find it hard to explain. See if you can come up with explanations for the things you're about to see in this video!

    Oldest Technologies Scientists Still Can't Explain


    Human beings are capable of building incredible structures, from the latest cutting-edge office blocks to artistic sculptures. Cathedrals, sporting arenas, and monuments all over the world are a testament to our creative skill as a species. In the modern era though, we have technology to help us, from huge mechanical drills to laser cutting curved glass. Builders didn’t have these luxuries in ancient times, so how did they manage to create some of the ancient wonders we’re about to show you in this video? Science still doesn’t have the answers.

    It is stated that ancient builders did not have advanced tech, but that is just the assumption based on the idea that man's scientific knowledge has been slowly increasing over the eons. There is no proof for this, except that no advanced tools have ever been found.

    If one were to examine the evidence without bias it would be evident that much of science is merely speculation and assumptions upon which more speculation and assumptions are made. Whole swaths of data in many areas of study are dismissed because they do not fit the preexisting assumptions.

    Science is more like the whims of an errant and willful child, filled with mad desires and even crazier daydreams, than it is an honest pursuit of knowledge for knowledge's sake.

    In the information age, knowledge is power, and power leads to control. That is why the truth is the first casualty. If we had the truth, we could not be swayed by rhetoric and vested interest narratives.
