Archaeology Thursday do you ever get that brush from a headline that wakes you right up even before you have a chance to drink your coffee? “Mysterious 2,800-Year-Old Structures Found in Old Jerusalem Baffle Experts” has me hearing John Williams in my head!

Let’s see the so-called “scientists” contort logic and geology to explain this one. What would it take to get them to admit this could be evidence that a civilization of intelligent beings once thrived on Mars?

Another excellent video from archaeologist @ArchyFantasies taking on the big Netflix series "Ancient Apocalypse" and why it is not archaeology, it is not science, and it just doesn't make sense.

These bronze age Artifacts were uncovered in a different part of the country from Sanxingdui. The similarities are striking.

“Complete Bronze Age town with elite tombs discovered in northern China - The site is one of the largest ever discovered dating from China's early Shang Dynasty.”

Now I can yell “IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM IN VERMONT!” and actually mean it!

“Vermont museum plans to construct $12.6 million facility to house more than 500 Native American pieces!”

If Erich von Däniken or Graham Hancock had found this stone, they'd be singing to the heavens of their proof of ancient aliens. And Netflix would commission a series. #pseudoarchaeology #charlatans

Living Fast and Dying Young in Ancient Egypt!

Saturday morning Archaeologists:

“6,000-year-old wood carving could solve Stonehenge mystery - The oldest decorated wooden object ever found in Britain has been discovered near Stonehenge.”

Fringe Archeology for Monday - This is a little too extraordinary and incredible even for me… Allegedly this mathematician believes there was once a sphere or a disk on the top of the Pyramids in Egypt… keeping an open mind.

Some more behind the scenes look at the real-world artifact behind the “Dial Of Destiny,” The Antikythera Mechanism…

Which leads us to believe that this is society where this was built was far more advanced than modern academia would allow us to believe.

"Archaeologist Reacts to 'America Unearthed': Scott Wolter is a Con Artist and This Show is Garbage"

Now *that* is the sort of clear title a video needs of an archaeologist getting sick & tired of grifting pseudo-archaeology babble!

Also--the real history is more interesting than the fake history!

#pseudoarchaeology in a nutshell.

@KUHoopes @SoilManDan @FlintDibble

I am reading #BlackGenesis right now, and wondering how in the bloody hell #RobertBauval let himself get wrangled in with the #AncientAliens people. Granted, he's #PseudoArchaeology but he is or was the kind that was interesting and at least headed in the direction of at least thinking inclusively in historical speculation. Did something happen? Was he always downlow shady and we didn't notice? Or did he just sell out when the #HistoryChannel made him an offer?

Recently I was interviewed for an episode of the (Canadian) national radio show CBC Ideas, which finally aired last night! The episode spawned from *that* Netflix show and broadly discusses #archaeology and #pseudoarchaeology, featuring interviews from myself and several additional folks (Brent Lee's comments toward the end of the episode are especially interesting). You can listen to the episode at the link below!

Nooit meer Tartaria. Na een boekje en een driedelige podcastreeks neem ik afscheid van Tartaria.

In de laatste aflevering maak ik een omweg langs twee chronologiecritici om dan uit te komen bij de ideologische aspecten van de pseudohistorische vertelsels rond het vermeende wereldrijk.

Nog meer Tartaria.
In deze aflevering vertel ik over de verrassend moderne technologie en de verbluffende energievoorzieningen. Jammer genoeg konden die de ondergang van het imaginaire rijk door gemanipuleerde modderstromen niet tegenhouden.

Tartaria, dat is de naam van een nieuw, verzonnen wereldrijk. Tartaria is ook de titel van mijn nieuwe podcastreeks voor de maand februari.
Drie delen heb ik. In deel één vertel ik hoe de pseudoarcheologische online mythe van Tartaria zich op gang trok en geef ik aan waar de bedenkers van de verhalen hun mosterd gehaald hebben.

If there are CBC listeners here, rumour has it I'll be in an upcoming episode of CBC Ideas 👀 I actually had a really great time recording an interview for this episode in December, and I'm looking forward to seeing how the episode comes together! Feb 2nd is the air date!
