#50 – Ancient Apocalypse – Polygonal Stones & the Amazon

In today’s episode, we return to Graham Hancock’s Ancient Apocalypse. We cover the fourth episode of the second season. In the first segment, we read a message our #1 fan about our episode on integrating your dark side. Drew shares some videos about water and cymatics which takes us down a bit of a rabbit hole. We also discuss lasers & DMT and whether NASA is a big fraud. As we get into the main topic, Graham takes us to Qenqo in Peru, a mysterious site with cave carved out of bedrock and possible evidence of vitrification. Could the ancient creators have used heat to shape and treat the stone? We also get a lesson about Viracocha, deity of the Inca people who was rumored to have the ability to lift and melt stone with fire. We talk about Francisco de Orellana’s journey down the Amazon and the people and cities he claimed to encounter as evidence for more advanced civilization existing in the Amazon. There’s a really cool recreation in the show that we share that shows what one of these ancient Amazonian cities may have looked like. We discuss an interesting creation myth of the Tucano people and the similarities to other world myths. For more evidence on the advanced nature of the amazonian natives, we also share a clip talking about ayahuasca and how unlikely of an invention it is. The brothers also discuss other technological evidence like terra preta and the tree species diversity. It seems the ancient of South America still have many lesson to teach and mysteries to unveil. Enjoy!
