00:02:17,830 --> 00:02:16,480 talking about all kinds of things but 57 00:02:18,869 --> 00:02:17,840 uh i 58 00:02:22,790 --> 00:02:18,879 went to 59 00:02:24,630 --> 00:02:22,800 expo 67 in quebec canada 60 00:02:26,710 --> 00:02:24,640 um about 61 00:02:27,430 --> 00:02:26,720 10 15 years after i went up with a 62 00:02:29,190 --> 00:02:27,440 friend 63 00:02:31,990 --> 00:02:29,200 we went up on motorcycles when i used to 64 00:02:35,509 --> 00:02:32,000 do that years ago and i remember going 65 00:02:37,110 --> 00:02:35,519 through expo 67 and in some room 66 00:02:39,190 --> 00:02:37,120 we went into and there was an ancient 67 00:02:42,229 --> 00:02:39,200 skull and it said it could be 68 00:02:43,910 --> 00:02:42,239 5 000 crystal skull could be 5 000 years 69 00:02:47,110 --> 00:02:43,920 old they didn't know from central 70 00:02:49,670 --> 00:02:47,120 america and i was mesmerized i remember 71 00:02:51,030 --> 00:02:49,680 of all the things that i looked at that 72 00:02:52,949 --> 00:02:51,040 day that 73 00:02:54,309 --> 00:02:52,959 moved me the most when i thought wow 74 00:02:55,430 --> 00:02:54,319 this thing could be over a thousand 75 00:02:57,670 --> 00:02:55,440 years old 76 00:02:59,910 --> 00:02:57,680 so uh humans have always had a 77 00:03:02,710 --> 00:02:59,920 fascination with the the head and the 78 00:03:04,149 --> 00:03:02,720 skull right i mean yep yeah so yeah 79 00:03:06,229 --> 00:03:04,159 let's let's hear a little bit first 80 00:03:08,229 --> 00:03:06,239 about your background and what got you 81 00:03:10,630 --> 00:03:08,239 interested in the topic 82 00:03:12,550 --> 00:03:10,640 okay uh well he said essentially i'm an 83 00:03:13,910 --> 00:03:12,560 archaeologist it's what i've been for 84 00:03:16,309 --> 00:03:13,920 many years uh it's what i do 85 00:03:18,710 --> 00:03:16,319 professionally um so obviously i'm 86 00:03:20,949 --> 00:03:18,720 interested in old things and there's an 87 00:03:21,990 --> 00:03:20,959 awful lot of schools out there that are 88 00:03:23,750 --> 00:03:22,000 old 89 00:03:26,229 --> 00:03:23,760 if you wanted to take something that was 90 00:03:28,390 --> 00:03:26,239 common probably to every time period 91 00:03:29,350 --> 00:03:28,400 that we have evidence for it would be a 92 00:03:31,830 --> 00:03:29,360 skull 93 00:03:33,670 --> 00:03:31,840 so i came up with the idea um under 94 00:03:35,990 --> 00:03:33,680 lockdown when we had the whole covid 95 00:03:38,309 --> 00:03:36,000 thing of um going back in time and 96 00:03:41,509 --> 00:03:38,319 looking at all these different skulls 97 00:03:43,589 --> 00:03:41,519 and using that as a thread to examine 98 00:03:45,670 --> 00:03:43,599 what humans were up to and 99 00:03:46,630 --> 00:03:45,680 their belief systems and 100 00:03:49,509 --> 00:03:46,640 you know what they were doing in the 101 00:03:52,390 --> 00:03:49,519 past and it's proven to be 102 00:03:54,710 --> 00:03:52,400 really revealing very very revealing um 103 00:03:57,589 --> 00:03:54,720 i extended it a little bit into images 104 00:03:58,470 --> 00:03:57,599 of the human skull and the human head 105 00:04:00,309 --> 00:03:58,480 um 106 00:04:02,149 --> 00:04:00,319 and i've got a crystal skull of my own 107 00:04:04,869 --> 00:04:02,159 as well i acquired one mine's nowhere 108 00:04:07,110 --> 00:04:04,879 near as old as ten thousand years it's 109 00:04:09,670 --> 00:04:07,120 it's probably just uh pre-columbian it's 110 00:04:12,149 --> 00:04:09,680 probably maybe five to seven hundred 111 00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:12,159 years somewhere in that bracket now let 112 00:04:14,630 --> 00:04:13,680 me just ask you this before we move on 113 00:04:16,870 --> 00:04:14,640 from that 114 00:04:19,189 --> 00:04:16,880 uh from what you're saying right now is 115 00:04:20,390 --> 00:04:19,199 i understand because i'm an appraiser 116 00:04:22,310 --> 00:04:20,400 and and i 117 00:04:24,629 --> 00:04:22,320 but i understand you can easily date 118 00:04:26,390 --> 00:04:24,639 things like pottery and you know wood 119 00:04:29,749 --> 00:04:26,400 and things like that but when it comes 120 00:04:32,629 --> 00:04:29,759 to stone and crystal you can never age 121 00:04:35,030 --> 00:04:32,639 that as far as when humans intervened 122 00:04:37,670 --> 00:04:35,040 with it so do you just use like the 123 00:04:40,390 --> 00:04:37,680 machinery used i mean the tools used how 124 00:04:41,990 --> 00:04:40,400 do you date us crystal skull yeah if you 125 00:04:44,790 --> 00:04:42,000 find yourself confronted with a crystal 126 00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:44,800 skull the the obvious thing to do 127 00:04:49,270 --> 00:04:47,280 is look at it for evidence of machine 128 00:04:51,990 --> 00:04:49,280 manufacture if there's any kind of 129 00:04:53,110 --> 00:04:52,000 machine any kind of turning lathes 130 00:04:55,189 --> 00:04:53,120 cutters 131 00:04:57,270 --> 00:04:55,199 sanders whatever 132 00:04:59,270 --> 00:04:57,280 even you know sandpaper 133 00:05:01,029 --> 00:04:59,280 very often yeah if you end up looking at 134 00:05:03,350 --> 00:05:01,039 these things you will find some kind of 135 00:05:04,950 --> 00:05:03,360 manufacturing marks which essentially is 136 00:05:07,189 --> 00:05:04,960 is what they've done with various 137 00:05:09,590 --> 00:05:07,199 schools at the british museum 138 00:05:12,550 --> 00:05:09,600 and other schools around the world and a 139 00:05:16,870 --> 00:05:12,560 lot of these have got what they say are 140 00:05:18,909 --> 00:05:16,880 19th century tool marks um but then 141 00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:18,919 if you also look at them and they're 142 00:05:21,590 --> 00:05:20,800 handmade 143 00:05:25,029 --> 00:05:21,600 not 144 00:05:27,189 --> 00:05:25,039 obviously machine made then somebody has 145 00:05:29,670 --> 00:05:27,199 taken an awful lot of trouble to select 146 00:05:32,070 --> 00:05:29,680 the right crystal to make the right 147 00:05:34,790 --> 00:05:32,080 features to produce something of great 148 00:05:37,909 --> 00:05:34,800 beauty and obviously great importance 149 00:05:39,749 --> 00:05:37,919 so the one i've got is handmade it's 150 00:05:42,629 --> 00:05:39,759 highly polished and as far as we can 151 00:05:43,749 --> 00:05:42,639 tell there are very few marks on it at 152 00:05:45,350 --> 00:05:43,759 all 153 00:05:46,550 --> 00:05:45,360 um i mean if you went to look at 154 00:05:47,749 --> 00:05:46,560 something like the mitchell hedges 155 00:05:50,230 --> 00:05:47,759 school that 156 00:05:53,430 --> 00:05:50,240 has been looked at under electron 157 00:05:55,590 --> 00:05:53,440 microscope microscope microscopy i 158 00:05:57,189 --> 00:05:55,600 nearly said that um 159 00:05:58,950 --> 00:05:57,199 and there are no marks they can't find 160 00:06:00,710 --> 00:05:58,960 any marks on that at all so you then 161 00:06:02,150 --> 00:06:00,720 face with with the obvious conclusion 162 00:06:04,230 --> 00:06:02,160 that somebody venerated this thing 163 00:06:05,990 --> 00:06:04,240 handled it for a long period of time 164 00:06:07,830 --> 00:06:06,000 whoever manufactured it then went to 165 00:06:10,309 --> 00:06:07,840 great pains to to get rid of all the 166 00:06:12,070 --> 00:06:10,319 marks off it and that takes a long time 167 00:06:13,990 --> 00:06:12,080 that's generation after generation after 168 00:06:15,909 --> 00:06:14,000 generation of people handling it sending 169 00:06:17,189 --> 00:06:15,919 it working with it and then of course 170 00:06:18,469 --> 00:06:17,199 the most important thing is if you've 171 00:06:20,790 --> 00:06:18,479 actually got any kind of evidence of 172 00:06:23,029 --> 00:06:20,800 where it came from and i happen to know 173 00:06:25,749 --> 00:06:23,039 that sort of two owners back mine 174 00:06:27,510 --> 00:06:25,759 originated in south america so it comes 175 00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:27,520 from the the right place and it comes 176 00:06:32,309 --> 00:06:29,440 from it comes from the mayans if if 177 00:06:35,430 --> 00:06:32,319 truth be known um and the crystal you 178 00:06:37,350 --> 00:06:35,440 can type the crystal you can analyze it 179 00:06:39,189 --> 00:06:37,360 to find out where else where in the 180 00:06:41,990 --> 00:06:39,199 world that particular type of crystals 181 00:06:43,670 --> 00:06:42,000 found and mine south american so 182 00:06:45,590 --> 00:06:43,680 there are ways of narrowing it down 183 00:06:47,990 --> 00:06:45,600 there's no absolute 184 00:06:51,430 --> 00:06:48,000 um there's a new technique for dating 185 00:06:53,670 --> 00:06:51,440 stone that looks at uh moisture in stone 186 00:06:55,909 --> 00:06:53,680 and moisture loss i see but that's still 187 00:06:57,670 --> 00:06:55,919 in development and uh obviously it's 188 00:07:00,390 --> 00:06:57,680 quite expensive so i've not really had 189 00:07:02,150 --> 00:07:00,400 that done on mine um but you can only be 190 00:07:04,790 --> 00:07:02,160 reasonably confident i suppose you could 191 00:07:07,029 --> 00:07:04,800 say you could be 75 80 percent confident 192 00:07:08,150 --> 00:07:07,039 what's real and what isn't real and 193 00:07:09,830 --> 00:07:08,160 there's an awful lot of ones that are 194 00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:09,840 definitely not real knocking around out 195 00:07:14,070 --> 00:07:11,919 there at the moment yeah right right 196 00:07:16,870 --> 00:07:14,080 here i was just a few weeks ago right at 197 00:07:18,309 --> 00:07:16,880 the oh i was uh in belize and and down 198 00:07:22,950 --> 00:07:18,319 in uh 199 00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:22,960 at the mayan ruins uh so anyway uh 200 00:07:26,790 --> 00:07:25,280 i want you to continue but before you do 201 00:07:28,550 --> 00:07:26,800 you talked about your skull being about 202 00:07:29,830 --> 00:07:28,560 500 years older somewhere around there 203 00:07:31,350 --> 00:07:29,840 do you have that handy where you can 204 00:07:33,510 --> 00:07:31,360 just grab it and pick it up in front of 205 00:07:36,390 --> 00:07:33,520 the camera or is that uh 206 00:07:37,670 --> 00:07:36,400 no it's in storage it's in storage 207 00:07:39,909 --> 00:07:37,680 i'll tell you what that was 208 00:07:41,909 --> 00:07:39,919 ahead of the show but no it's it's a 209 00:07:43,830 --> 00:07:41,919 good opportunity for a plug because it 210 00:07:45,589 --> 00:07:43,840 actually appears in the book which i've 211 00:07:46,710 --> 00:07:45,599 just written crystal skulls and human 212 00:07:48,150 --> 00:07:46,720 heads 213 00:07:50,230 --> 00:07:48,160 so folks actually want to see it there's 214 00:07:53,749 --> 00:07:50,240 a whopping great big photo of mine in 215 00:07:56,629 --> 00:07:53,759 there um so you could see that yeah and 216 00:07:58,869 --> 00:07:56,639 that's by flying disc press uh blind 217 00:08:00,950 --> 00:07:58,879 mantle a great friend of this show and 218 00:08:02,469 --> 00:08:00,960 uh i think i believe he's watching right 219 00:08:03,189 --> 00:08:02,479 now oh 220 00:08:05,029 --> 00:08:03,199 yeah 221 00:08:06,550 --> 00:08:05,039 it was it was philip that that sort of 222 00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:06,560 gave me a nudge and when uh they're 223 00:08:09,749 --> 00:08:08,080 waiting for you they're waiting for the 224 00:08:11,110 --> 00:08:09,759 interview you know i'm like 225 00:08:12,869 --> 00:08:11,120 that's right 226 00:08:15,270 --> 00:08:12,879 so thanks to philip for getting the ball 227 00:08:17,350 --> 00:08:15,280 rolling that's right that's right so all 228 00:08:19,430 --> 00:08:17,360 right so i wanted you to continue along 229 00:08:21,670 --> 00:08:19,440 you have this 500 year old skull 230 00:08:23,830 --> 00:08:21,680 did you acquire it before you get 231 00:08:25,510 --> 00:08:23,840 interested in the in the topic or was 232 00:08:27,430 --> 00:08:25,520 this something you look for once you get 233 00:08:28,950 --> 00:08:27,440 interested in the topic well i mean it's 234 00:08:31,430 --> 00:08:28,960 a good question i actually started 235 00:08:34,310 --> 00:08:31,440 getting interested in the topic um as 236 00:08:35,909 --> 00:08:34,320 long ago as a 1970 series that we had 237 00:08:38,550 --> 00:08:35,919 over here called arthur c clarke's 238 00:08:40,310 --> 00:08:38,560 mysterious world if anybody gets that 239 00:08:42,709 --> 00:08:40,320 book the thing on the front cover is the 240 00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:42,719 mitchell hedges skull so that was my 241 00:08:47,190 --> 00:08:44,880 interest um you know i mean i'm not as 242 00:08:49,350 --> 00:08:47,200 old as i look but you know 1970s i was 243 00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:49,360 old enough as a teenager to appreciate 244 00:08:52,710 --> 00:08:51,120 what was what was going on at that time 245 00:08:55,110 --> 00:08:52,720 and i really really took an interest in 246 00:08:56,470 --> 00:08:55,120 that um and then at the same time is 247 00:08:58,070 --> 00:08:56,480 that happening i was also on an 248 00:08:59,990 --> 00:08:58,080 archaeological dig over here where we 249 00:09:02,870 --> 00:09:00,000 had somewhere in the order i think was 250 00:09:05,590 --> 00:09:02,880 about 128 251 00:09:07,110 --> 00:09:05,600 monastic skeletons exposed and excavated 252 00:09:08,389 --> 00:09:07,120 it was the largest monastic dig in 253 00:09:09,990 --> 00:09:08,399 europe at the time 254 00:09:11,509 --> 00:09:10,000 that was norton priory that was up here 255 00:09:14,070 --> 00:09:11,519 in the mersey valley i was on that for 256 00:09:15,509 --> 00:09:14,080 about four or five years on and off um 257 00:09:17,750 --> 00:09:15,519 so i had a lot of contact a lot of 258 00:09:19,750 --> 00:09:17,760 connections with human remains i did a 259 00:09:21,829 --> 00:09:19,760 few others as well i've dug in 260 00:09:23,670 --> 00:09:21,839 prehistoric sites and i've done a friary 261 00:09:25,829 --> 00:09:23,680 and one of two other bits and bobs and 262 00:09:27,750 --> 00:09:25,839 you do start to notice differences in 263 00:09:29,350 --> 00:09:27,760 human skulls 264 00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:29,360 and then eventually of course you you 265 00:09:34,710 --> 00:09:32,560 start to widen broaden your horizons i i 266 00:09:37,590 --> 00:09:34,720 too have been to south america 267 00:09:39,190 --> 00:09:37,600 um i i went to chichen itza and cobra 268 00:09:41,430 --> 00:09:39,200 and one or two other places 269 00:09:43,430 --> 00:09:41,440 um but i never got to see any of the 270 00:09:46,230 --> 00:09:43,440 parakas schools because it's the perak 271 00:09:48,470 --> 00:09:46,240 of schools that really nailed it for me 272 00:09:50,550 --> 00:09:48,480 um and i've got a shout out to eric von 273 00:09:52,870 --> 00:09:50,560 daniken for that one because there's an 274 00:09:54,230 --> 00:09:52,880 enormous peraka skill that appears in 275 00:09:57,190 --> 00:09:54,240 one of his books 276 00:09:58,949 --> 00:09:57,200 is that elongated elongated skulls yeah 277 00:10:00,710 --> 00:09:58,959 the big ones about three times the 278 00:10:03,509 --> 00:10:00,720 capacity the cranial capacity of a 279 00:10:06,230 --> 00:10:03,519 normal human being um that just 280 00:10:08,230 --> 00:10:06,240 absolutely blew me away so um 281 00:10:10,230 --> 00:10:08,240 me being me while i was under lockdown 282 00:10:11,670 --> 00:10:10,240 just went absolutely bonkers and went 283 00:10:14,310 --> 00:10:11,680 off and researched as much as i could 284 00:10:16,150 --> 00:10:14,320 possibly find on every single human head 285 00:10:17,670 --> 00:10:16,160 you could possibly imagine 286 00:10:20,150 --> 00:10:17,680 and the result is crystal skulls and 287 00:10:21,509 --> 00:10:20,160 human heads uh i did it as a powerpoint 288 00:10:22,949 --> 00:10:21,519 originally i mean i've been doing it 289 00:10:24,949 --> 00:10:22,959 sort of on and off as an archaeological 290 00:10:27,110 --> 00:10:24,959 presentation for about maybe eight or 291 00:10:29,509 --> 00:10:27,120 ten years but to actually get the 292 00:10:31,990 --> 00:10:29,519 background to it bulk up the science and 293 00:10:33,430 --> 00:10:32,000 actually bring it forward as a book i 294 00:10:35,430 --> 00:10:33,440 think it's worked all right i think it's 295 00:10:37,110 --> 00:10:35,440 come out okay anyway that's that's 296 00:10:39,670 --> 00:10:37,120 that's the plug that philip wanted for 297 00:10:41,910 --> 00:10:39,680 the book in there anyway 298 00:10:44,470 --> 00:10:41,920 i can't not talk about the book that's 299 00:10:46,389 --> 00:10:44,480 right that's right so there's also been 300 00:10:47,509 --> 00:10:46,399 um i have heard this that there's also 301 00:10:48,470 --> 00:10:47,519 been 302 00:10:50,710 --> 00:10:48,480 um 303 00:10:53,269 --> 00:10:50,720 i don't want to say conspiracies but 304 00:10:55,030 --> 00:10:53,279 there's been thoughts that there's 305 00:10:58,389 --> 00:10:55,040 something more going on with these 306 00:11:00,710 --> 00:10:58,399 skulls than just skulls have you yes 307 00:11:03,670 --> 00:11:00,720 yeah can you talk about some of uh the 308 00:11:05,910 --> 00:11:03,680 mythology on that um well it's gonna be 309 00:11:08,230 --> 00:11:05,920 it's gone a bit beyond mythology um 310 00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:08,240 we're at the stage now what struck me is 311 00:11:14,069 --> 00:11:11,040 that um some guys over here in the uk 312 00:11:18,150 --> 00:11:14,079 have found a way of writing data in five 313 00:11:19,750 --> 00:11:18,160 dimensions into glass on a glass disk 314 00:11:20,949 --> 00:11:19,760 it's not something you can read at home 315 00:11:22,790 --> 00:11:20,959 it's something they do with their 316 00:11:24,069 --> 00:11:22,800 laboratory gear but they know they can 317 00:11:26,470 --> 00:11:24,079 write this stuff 318 00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:26,480 and and the terabyte ability of these 319 00:11:30,550 --> 00:11:28,800 disks is absolutely phenomenal um 320 00:11:33,590 --> 00:11:30,560 they're huge they're about i don't know 321 00:11:35,110 --> 00:11:33,600 30 times what you'd find on a normal cd 322 00:11:36,150 --> 00:11:35,120 but they're written into glass glass is 323 00:11:40,710 --> 00:11:36,160 silicon 324 00:11:42,949 --> 00:11:40,720 so there's always been this thing going 325 00:11:44,550 --> 00:11:42,959 around that oh you know when the 13 like 326 00:11:46,790 --> 00:11:44,560 big schools all get brought together 327 00:11:48,550 --> 00:11:46,800 that are all ancient and they'll unite 328 00:11:50,310 --> 00:11:48,560 and all this information will come out 329 00:11:52,310 --> 00:11:50,320 and and you know a lot of the science 330 00:11:53,829 --> 00:11:52,320 and community and history community are 331 00:11:55,350 --> 00:11:53,839 like i don't really see how that's going 332 00:11:58,230 --> 00:11:55,360 to be possible 333 00:11:59,590 --> 00:11:58,240 but now if we had the ability to be able 334 00:12:02,150 --> 00:11:59,600 to read 335 00:12:04,550 --> 00:12:02,160 quartz and read quote silica we'd be 336 00:12:07,350 --> 00:12:04,560 able to get some form of data back out 337 00:12:08,710 --> 00:12:07,360 of it i i i'm amazed nobody's actually 338 00:12:10,150 --> 00:12:08,720 trying it at the moment somebody should 339 00:12:11,190 --> 00:12:10,160 be having a go at it with the 340 00:12:12,870 --> 00:12:11,200 developments it's i think it's 341 00:12:15,829 --> 00:12:12,880 southampton university that came up with 342 00:12:17,110 --> 00:12:15,839 this this uh disc that and 343 00:12:19,430 --> 00:12:17,120 you know they should be looking at the 344 00:12:21,350 --> 00:12:19,440 idea of maybe taking that further but 345 00:12:23,750 --> 00:12:21,360 then the more you look into that the 346 00:12:26,790 --> 00:12:23,760 more you look into into silicon and what 347 00:12:28,150 --> 00:12:26,800 have you um we yes with carbon-based 348 00:12:29,910 --> 00:12:28,160 life forms and all the rest of it but 349 00:12:31,110 --> 00:12:29,920 we're essentially living in a silicon 350 00:12:33,350 --> 00:12:31,120 world 351 00:12:35,110 --> 00:12:33,360 everything around us seems to revolve 352 00:12:36,550 --> 00:12:35,120 around silica so you've got you know 353 00:12:38,949 --> 00:12:36,560 glass in your windows you've got 354 00:12:40,550 --> 00:12:38,959 microchips in your computers you've got 355 00:12:43,750 --> 00:12:40,560 you know once you start to think about 356 00:12:46,069 --> 00:12:43,760 what's got that melted sand in it 357 00:12:48,790 --> 00:12:46,079 the crystal aspect of it starts to take 358 00:12:50,710 --> 00:12:48,800 on a sort of a story of its own i mean 359 00:12:52,310 --> 00:12:50,720 the actual subtitle to the crystal 360 00:12:54,069 --> 00:12:52,320 skulls and human heads is the mystical 361 00:12:55,350 --> 00:12:54,079 history of glass and the end of the 362 00:12:57,430 --> 00:12:55,360 world 363 00:12:59,430 --> 00:12:57,440 because somewhere hidden in that mystery 364 00:13:01,590 --> 00:12:59,440 is the beginning of the world is the 365 00:13:03,269 --> 00:13:01,600 world we live in now and also the end of 366 00:13:04,389 --> 00:13:03,279 the world we live in now whenever that 367 00:13:05,509 --> 00:13:04,399 comes and it's not going to happen 368 00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:05,519 tomorrow don't worry about it don't 369 00:13:09,190 --> 00:13:07,839 don't panic um 370 00:13:11,110 --> 00:13:09,200 so that was sort of what i was looking 371 00:13:12,389 --> 00:13:11,120 at and and one of the things that just 372 00:13:14,230 --> 00:13:12,399 as a matter of trivia that had to come 373 00:13:17,110 --> 00:13:14,240 out i was i was looking at well 374 00:13:17,990 --> 00:13:17,120 what part does silica play in us you 375 00:13:19,509 --> 00:13:18,000 know 376 00:13:21,750 --> 00:13:19,519 and then i discovered that if you're 377 00:13:24,069 --> 00:13:21,760 deficient when you're developing 378 00:13:25,590 --> 00:13:24,079 the thing that comes out wrong if you 379 00:13:27,110 --> 00:13:25,600 like at the end because of silica 380 00:13:28,870 --> 00:13:27,120 deficiency 381 00:13:30,949 --> 00:13:28,880 is the brain 382 00:13:32,949 --> 00:13:30,959 so you're like whoa hold on a minute 383 00:13:35,509 --> 00:13:32,959 that's that's that's it that's the 384 00:13:37,430 --> 00:13:35,519 connection that's the silica the crystal 385 00:13:40,069 --> 00:13:37,440 is required for a human being that's 386 00:13:42,389 --> 00:13:40,079 developing to build its brain that's 387 00:13:44,310 --> 00:13:42,399 absolutely mind-blowing how on earth did 388 00:13:46,310 --> 00:13:44,320 they know that when they started banging 389 00:13:48,870 --> 00:13:46,320 out these crystal heads so they're 390 00:13:52,069 --> 00:13:48,880 making correct representations of the 391 00:13:54,150 --> 00:13:52,079 correct substance in the correct way but 392 00:13:56,550 --> 00:13:54,160 they're doing it before they have the 393 00:13:58,629 --> 00:13:56,560 technology to really appreciate that 394 00:14:00,949 --> 00:13:58,639 so it's little gems like that the books 395 00:14:02,389 --> 00:14:00,959 just peppered with things like that and 396 00:14:03,990 --> 00:14:02,399 i know people are going to get hold of 397 00:14:06,389 --> 00:14:04,000 it it's not an enormously long book and 398 00:14:07,670 --> 00:14:06,399 it's very easy to read but it's one of 399 00:14:09,509 --> 00:14:07,680 those things where you're going to have 400 00:14:12,150 --> 00:14:09,519 sort of a wow moment a sort of mini 401 00:14:15,030 --> 00:14:12,160 revelation on on every page and that was 402 00:14:16,629 --> 00:14:15,040 the kind of journey i was having um 403 00:14:19,110 --> 00:14:16,639 i think the other important one as well 404 00:14:21,670 --> 00:14:19,120 was um there's been a lot of debate over 405 00:14:24,310 --> 00:14:21,680 whether the human skulls are stretched 406 00:14:27,590 --> 00:14:24,320 whether they're artificially made bigger 407 00:14:29,030 --> 00:14:27,600 or whether they're naturally that size 408 00:14:31,030 --> 00:14:29,040 uh and what i discovered is it's 409 00:14:33,430 --> 00:14:31,040 actually both uh it looks like the 410 00:14:35,110 --> 00:14:33,440 natural sized ones came first which is 411 00:14:37,910 --> 00:14:35,120 what you'd expect and they're born that 412 00:14:40,949 --> 00:14:37,920 way with these enormous craniums um but 413 00:14:42,710 --> 00:14:40,959 then people started copying that because 414 00:14:44,230 --> 00:14:42,720 it obviously gave them some kind of 415 00:14:46,790 --> 00:14:44,240 advantage and that advantage was 416 00:14:49,110 --> 00:14:46,800 respected and it was encouraged and then 417 00:14:51,189 --> 00:14:49,120 they started copying it but then sadly 418 00:14:54,069 --> 00:14:51,199 the guys with the enormous heads 419 00:14:56,230 --> 00:14:54,079 eventually became extinct not all that 420 00:14:57,670 --> 00:14:56,240 long ago either 421 00:14:59,350 --> 00:14:57,680 and that seems to be what's happened so 422 00:15:01,509 --> 00:14:59,360 now they've continued to do the 423 00:15:03,829 --> 00:15:01,519 elongation it's it's still done in 424 00:15:05,910 --> 00:15:03,839 certain parts of the world but it must 425 00:15:08,470 --> 00:15:05,920 offer a superior 426 00:15:09,829 --> 00:15:08,480 human being at the end of the day um so 427 00:15:11,509 --> 00:15:09,839 again there's a section in the book that 428 00:15:13,509 --> 00:15:11,519 looks at the brain and what effect those 429 00:15:14,310 --> 00:15:13,519 extra sized craniums would have on the 430 00:15:16,870 --> 00:15:14,320 brain 431 00:15:18,790 --> 00:15:16,880 um are they aliens that's the big 432 00:15:20,310 --> 00:15:18,800 question which everyone's gonna ask and 433 00:15:22,150 --> 00:15:20,320 and the answer is 434 00:15:25,269 --> 00:15:22,160 no they're not 435 00:15:26,790 --> 00:15:25,279 aliens from mars or venus or you know 436 00:15:29,590 --> 00:15:26,800 what anywhere else 437 00:15:32,069 --> 00:15:29,600 but are they alien to us yes they are 438 00:15:34,069 --> 00:15:32,079 alien to us because their dna 439 00:15:35,509 --> 00:15:34,079 and their actual physical structure the 440 00:15:38,550 --> 00:15:35,519 structure of these heads the bone 441 00:15:41,269 --> 00:15:38,560 structure is completely different 442 00:15:42,870 --> 00:15:41,279 from us but that now again is not so 443 00:15:44,870 --> 00:15:42,880 unusual because they're coming up with 444 00:15:46,790 --> 00:15:44,880 this idea of the lord of the rings type 445 00:15:47,990 --> 00:15:46,800 world in ancient times 446 00:15:50,230 --> 00:15:48,000 where there were many different 447 00:15:51,749 --> 00:15:50,240 varieties of human beings the same way 448 00:15:54,150 --> 00:15:51,759 as there's many different varieties of 449 00:15:55,990 --> 00:15:54,160 all species on earth yeah so they're 450 00:15:57,350 --> 00:15:56,000 definitely not alls 451 00:15:58,710 --> 00:15:57,360 yeah 452 00:16:01,350 --> 00:15:58,720 i don't know does that answer the 453 00:16:03,749 --> 00:16:01,360 question i hope yeah yes it does and 454 00:16:05,910 --> 00:16:03,759 and uh we have a couple of uh people 455 00:16:07,990 --> 00:16:05,920 posting questions in chat and thank you 456 00:16:10,150 --> 00:16:08,000 for putting that in caps i'll put that 457 00:16:12,069 --> 00:16:10,160 up uh we may be able to even take in a 458 00:16:13,430 --> 00:16:12,079 half hour so maybe it'll take a couple 459 00:16:17,030 --> 00:16:13,440 of calls i have 460 00:16:18,629 --> 00:16:17,040 my own type of thing but as well um so 461 00:16:22,150 --> 00:16:18,639 um 462 00:16:24,550 --> 00:16:22,160 i'm just wondering when you were uh 463 00:16:26,470 --> 00:16:24,560 looking into archaeology in general i 464 00:16:28,710 --> 00:16:26,480 mean your study of it one of the things 465 00:16:31,670 --> 00:16:28,720 i've said or thought about a number of 466 00:16:34,790 --> 00:16:31,680 times is it seems like the human 467 00:16:37,829 --> 00:16:34,800 the modern uh homo sapiens as we know 468 00:16:39,910 --> 00:16:37,839 them today seem to develop awful fast 469 00:16:41,990 --> 00:16:39,920 for all you hear 470 00:16:43,910 --> 00:16:42,000 a lot of times in science that it's only 471 00:16:46,150 --> 00:16:43,920 we're only like a hundred thousand years 472 00:16:47,990 --> 00:16:46,160 or two hundred thousand year old species 473 00:16:50,470 --> 00:16:48,000 does it seem kind of curious to you that 474 00:16:55,269 --> 00:16:50,480 we could develop 475 00:16:57,509 --> 00:16:56,310 is that just 476 00:16:59,509 --> 00:16:57,519 uh 477 00:17:00,629 --> 00:16:59,519 it's it's it's a very very good question 478 00:17:01,910 --> 00:17:00,639 because i 479 00:17:06,470 --> 00:17:01,920 i don't 480 00:17:08,150 --> 00:17:06,480 but what i do say in the book is that 481 00:17:11,510 --> 00:17:08,160 the whole 482 00:17:13,110 --> 00:17:11,520 science of dating and dating periods and 483 00:17:15,429 --> 00:17:13,120 time periods 484 00:17:17,669 --> 00:17:15,439 is actually a lot more fluid than than 485 00:17:20,069 --> 00:17:17,679 most people think it's not 486 00:17:22,470 --> 00:17:20,079 literally written in stone that you know 487 00:17:24,789 --> 00:17:22,480 just because carbon 14 says that it's 488 00:17:26,710 --> 00:17:24,799 whatever that that is exactly how old it 489 00:17:28,470 --> 00:17:26,720 is it's fluid there's a certain amount 490 00:17:31,029 --> 00:17:28,480 of fluidity in that 491 00:17:33,350 --> 00:17:31,039 and i'm not entirely convinced that 492 00:17:35,430 --> 00:17:33,360 everything evolves one thing after 493 00:17:38,070 --> 00:17:35,440 another after another after another 494 00:17:41,750 --> 00:17:38,080 there's definite modification and 495 00:17:42,710 --> 00:17:41,760 changes in species and species you know 496 00:17:43,990 --> 00:17:42,720 react 497 00:17:45,909 --> 00:17:44,000 you know 498 00:17:47,990 --> 00:17:45,919 to fit the environment that they find 499 00:17:50,230 --> 00:17:48,000 themselves in and we we do exactly the 500 00:17:52,789 --> 00:17:50,240 same thing but that's not to say that at 501 00:17:55,430 --> 00:17:52,799 some point in the distant past we didn't 502 00:17:57,909 --> 00:17:55,440 have the majority of the species alive 503 00:17:59,750 --> 00:17:57,919 all at the same time and that really 504 00:18:02,710 --> 00:17:59,760 does muddy the water 505 00:18:05,430 --> 00:18:02,720 because there's a lot of gaps in the in 506 00:18:07,510 --> 00:18:05,440 the chronology sometimes even if you go 507 00:18:09,190 --> 00:18:07,520 by the hundreds of thousands of years 508 00:18:11,190 --> 00:18:09,200 you can end up with a gap of two hundred 509 00:18:13,110 --> 00:18:11,200 thousand three hundred thousand years 510 00:18:14,710 --> 00:18:13,120 between the dating on one species and 511 00:18:16,070 --> 00:18:14,720 the dating on another 512 00:18:17,669 --> 00:18:16,080 and at the end of the day it might just 513 00:18:19,669 --> 00:18:17,679 be that we don't have a fossil for that 514 00:18:22,310 --> 00:18:19,679 or you know we haven't found it yet you 515 00:18:23,990 --> 00:18:22,320 know that that bits just missing or 516 00:18:25,029 --> 00:18:24,000 maybe the whole lot was alive all at 517 00:18:25,909 --> 00:18:25,039 once 518 00:18:27,909 --> 00:18:25,919 which 519 00:18:29,510 --> 00:18:27,919 again is a theory that you know since 520 00:18:31,909 --> 00:18:29,520 darwin people don't seem to have really 521 00:18:33,270 --> 00:18:31,919 gone for that um everyone's like oh we 522 00:18:35,029 --> 00:18:33,280 can't go down that route you know that's 523 00:18:36,470 --> 00:18:35,039 that's creationist it's biblical and all 524 00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:36,480 this stuff the other well actually there 525 00:18:40,789 --> 00:18:38,160 is a scientific version of it called 526 00:18:42,950 --> 00:18:40,799 panspermia which is the idea that the 527 00:18:44,630 --> 00:18:42,960 plant the planet's seeded and then 528 00:18:45,350 --> 00:18:44,640 develops from that 529 00:18:51,190 --> 00:18:45,360 so 530 00:18:53,350 --> 00:18:51,200 about roughly at the same time or 531 00:18:56,310 --> 00:18:53,360 couldn't have occurred after some form 532 00:18:58,549 --> 00:18:56,320 of uh cataclysmic event like a meteorite 533 00:18:59,909 --> 00:18:58,559 strike or a comet strike or whatever and 534 00:19:02,870 --> 00:18:59,919 then what we're seeing now is that world 535 00:19:04,630 --> 00:19:02,880 recovered afterwards so um i don't think 536 00:19:07,110 --> 00:19:04,640 we're necessarily 537 00:19:08,710 --> 00:19:07,120 a tremendously young species 538 00:19:11,909 --> 00:19:08,720 but i don't think in the past we were 539 00:19:13,430 --> 00:19:11,919 the dominant species not by any means um 540 00:19:14,390 --> 00:19:13,440 i think there were human beings that 541 00:19:17,110 --> 00:19:14,400 that 542 00:19:19,590 --> 00:19:17,120 yeah would make us look like you know 543 00:19:21,029 --> 00:19:19,600 rabbits compared to 544 00:19:22,230 --> 00:19:21,039 you know these guys with the big heads 545 00:19:24,150 --> 00:19:22,240 must have been absolutely incredible 546 00:19:26,230 --> 00:19:24,160 when you imagine that you know what's 547 00:19:27,590 --> 00:19:26,240 what the brain's capable of and all of a 548 00:19:29,430 --> 00:19:27,600 sudden someone comes along goes guess 549 00:19:31,909 --> 00:19:29,440 what my brain's three times bigger than 550 00:19:33,830 --> 00:19:31,919 your brain and you're like oh what on 551 00:19:35,510 --> 00:19:33,840 earth does that mean you know 552 00:19:37,510 --> 00:19:35,520 and we look at these fabulous things 553 00:19:39,669 --> 00:19:37,520 from the past and we wonder at them in 554 00:19:41,669 --> 00:19:39,679 absolute or you know how did they map 555 00:19:43,990 --> 00:19:41,679 the planets how did they move that 300 556 00:19:45,430 --> 00:19:44,000 ton block halfway up the wall and you 557 00:19:46,950 --> 00:19:45,440 know we look at all these things these 558 00:19:49,270 --> 00:19:46,960 guys probably just sat there and worked 559 00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:49,280 it out you know if you've got 10 of them 560 00:19:53,029 --> 00:19:51,200 in a room and they're all they've all 561 00:19:55,669 --> 00:19:53,039 got super computers and they've all got 562 00:19:57,669 --> 00:19:55,679 different skills because we're a varied 563 00:19:59,350 --> 00:19:57,679 species there's no reason why they 564 00:20:00,870 --> 00:19:59,360 couldn't work out how to you know build 565 00:20:02,950 --> 00:20:00,880 a pyramid over a cup of coffee on a 566 00:20:04,950 --> 00:20:02,960 sunday afternoon because these guys are 567 00:20:07,190 --> 00:20:04,960 incredible you know they're absolutely 568 00:20:08,950 --> 00:20:07,200 amazing um that's another problem with 569 00:20:10,870 --> 00:20:08,960 archaeology as well we wrestle with a 570 00:20:13,029 --> 00:20:10,880 lot of difficulties and a lot of 571 00:20:14,789 --> 00:20:13,039 mysteries because we have the 572 00:20:17,029 --> 00:20:14,799 information missing 573 00:20:19,510 --> 00:20:17,039 it's not there you know we're trying to 574 00:20:22,070 --> 00:20:19,520 fill in the gaps and until we have some 575 00:20:23,029 --> 00:20:22,080 evidence that is still going to be not 576 00:20:25,190 --> 00:20:23,039 there 577 00:20:27,110 --> 00:20:25,200 so we're trying to work out how things 578 00:20:28,230 --> 00:20:27,120 are done and dates and ages and things 579 00:20:30,789 --> 00:20:28,240 like that 580 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:30,799 and the gaps are just thwarting us on 581 00:20:34,710 --> 00:20:32,880 every turn you know it doesn't always 582 00:20:36,630 --> 00:20:34,720 work out that we can we can work out how 583 00:20:38,789 --> 00:20:36,640 something is 584 00:20:41,190 --> 00:20:38,799 yeah i was just uh recently 585 00:20:43,190 --> 00:20:41,200 on a trip i went to went to uh coral 586 00:20:44,789 --> 00:20:43,200 castle down in florida and i don't know 587 00:20:45,669 --> 00:20:44,799 if you've ever heard of that but that is 588 00:20:48,310 --> 00:20:45,679 uh 589 00:20:49,190 --> 00:20:48,320 these were giant you know several stones 590 00:20:51,830 --> 00:20:49,200 worth 591 00:20:53,350 --> 00:20:51,840 i mean uh we weighed several tons yeah 592 00:20:54,310 --> 00:20:53,360 the little guy that weighed a hundred 593 00:20:55,990 --> 00:20:54,320 pounds 594 00:20:58,230 --> 00:20:56,000 somehow moved them and nobody really 595 00:21:00,710 --> 00:20:58,240 knew what was going on and uh so there's 596 00:21:04,070 --> 00:21:00,720 all kinds of conspiracies about that as 597 00:21:05,110 --> 00:21:04,080 well i had a uh going back to the origin 598 00:21:12,630 --> 00:21:05,120 of 599 00:21:15,350 --> 00:21:12,640 director john ramirez on here who claims 600 00:21:17,590 --> 00:21:15,360 he went to a meeting at a conference 601 00:21:20,310 --> 00:21:17,600 that was put on by someone in the cia 602 00:21:22,950 --> 00:21:20,320 but it was not classified meeting it 603 00:21:25,029 --> 00:21:22,960 wasn't necessarily open to the public 604 00:21:28,549 --> 00:21:25,039 but during that meeting 605 00:21:29,430 --> 00:21:28,559 um the person running the conference was 606 00:21:31,110 --> 00:21:29,440 saying 607 00:21:33,110 --> 00:21:31,120 that we 608 00:21:33,990 --> 00:21:33,120 have been a hybrid 609 00:21:36,070 --> 00:21:34,000 um 610 00:21:37,909 --> 00:21:36,080 so many thousands of years ago 611 00:21:41,669 --> 00:21:37,919 from 612 00:21:44,789 --> 00:21:41,679 aliens i think i want to say that and 613 00:21:46,630 --> 00:21:44,799 surprisingly he said there were um you 614 00:21:49,110 --> 00:21:46,640 know most of the people who signed in 615 00:21:50,870 --> 00:21:49,120 had edu behind their mailing address it 616 00:21:52,710 --> 00:21:50,880 was a lot of people from 617 00:21:54,950 --> 00:21:52,720 you know college universities around the 618 00:21:57,430 --> 00:21:54,960 country i guess supposedly and he said 619 00:21:59,909 --> 00:21:57,440 nobody got like out of control upset or 620 00:22:01,590 --> 00:21:59,919 anything they were shaking their heads 621 00:22:03,990 --> 00:22:01,600 as if they heard it before which is 622 00:22:05,430 --> 00:22:04,000 really bizarre another another mystery 623 00:22:06,310 --> 00:22:05,440 i'd like to find out a little bit more 624 00:22:09,830 --> 00:22:06,320 about 625 00:22:11,990 --> 00:22:09,840 um it's it's partially true 626 00:22:15,029 --> 00:22:12,000 because there's no doubt that the 627 00:22:17,510 --> 00:22:15,039 different species the distinct forms of 628 00:22:18,310 --> 00:22:17,520 humans right from the little tiny you 629 00:22:19,909 --> 00:22:18,320 know 630 00:22:21,110 --> 00:22:19,919 skeletons found out in the philippines 631 00:22:23,350 --> 00:22:21,120 and things like that all the way through 632 00:22:25,510 --> 00:22:23,360 to the giants of legend or whatever 633 00:22:27,270 --> 00:22:25,520 there's no doubt that at different times 634 00:22:29,510 --> 00:22:27,280 those different species found it 635 00:22:31,350 --> 00:22:29,520 necessary to interbreed because the 636 00:22:33,590 --> 00:22:31,360 analysis in particular they've done on 637 00:22:35,510 --> 00:22:33,600 things like neanderthal dna they've 638 00:22:36,870 --> 00:22:35,520 ended up spotting another race in there 639 00:22:39,350 --> 00:22:36,880 which has now become known as the 640 00:22:41,830 --> 00:22:39,360 denisovans they don't even know what the 641 00:22:43,909 --> 00:22:41,840 denisovan race is it's just 642 00:22:45,430 --> 00:22:43,919 dna that is not native to the 643 00:22:47,029 --> 00:22:45,440 neanderthals 644 00:22:49,590 --> 00:22:47,039 at the same time there's a couple of 645 00:22:52,070 --> 00:22:49,600 other dnas now that have popped up one 646 00:22:55,190 --> 00:22:52,080 from the east another from the west and 647 00:22:57,590 --> 00:22:55,200 that dna hasn't really been isolated and 648 00:23:00,149 --> 00:22:57,600 then within ourselves if you went to the 649 00:23:01,990 --> 00:23:00,159 aborigines they've got the highest 650 00:23:04,310 --> 00:23:02,000 current living concentration of 651 00:23:06,870 --> 00:23:04,320 neanderthal dna they're somewhere i 652 00:23:09,510 --> 00:23:06,880 think they're about 22 or 23 653 00:23:13,190 --> 00:23:09,520 neanderthal so in terms of us being a 654 00:23:15,270 --> 00:23:13,200 pure pure in the true sense species uh 655 00:23:17,430 --> 00:23:15,280 we're not we're absolutely definitely 656 00:23:18,710 --> 00:23:17,440 not science is discovering that we've 657 00:23:21,789 --> 00:23:18,720 interbred 658 00:23:24,950 --> 00:23:21,799 whether any of that dna has 659 00:23:27,110 --> 00:23:24,960 extraterrestrial origin at the moment i 660 00:23:29,510 --> 00:23:27,120 don't think science has completely 661 00:23:32,149 --> 00:23:29,520 established that um not that i'm aware 662 00:23:34,070 --> 00:23:32,159 of uh so like i say he's he's partially 663 00:23:35,909 --> 00:23:34,080 correct to say that we're definitely not 664 00:23:38,070 --> 00:23:35,919 a pure race 665 00:23:39,909 --> 00:23:38,080 there's another issue as well there's 666 00:23:41,909 --> 00:23:39,919 there's nothing to say that had we 667 00:23:44,149 --> 00:23:41,919 reached a high society and become highly 668 00:23:46,549 --> 00:23:44,159 developed thousands of years ago 669 00:23:48,149 --> 00:23:46,559 that um i mean let's let's get biblical 670 00:23:50,710 --> 00:23:48,159 let's that's talking language that 671 00:23:53,269 --> 00:23:50,720 people might understand supposing in the 672 00:23:56,870 --> 00:23:53,279 days before there was a flood 673 00:24:00,230 --> 00:23:56,880 that somebody like noah's generation 674 00:24:03,029 --> 00:24:00,240 had longer to develop their science then 675 00:24:05,110 --> 00:24:03,039 than we had to develop our science now 676 00:24:06,710 --> 00:24:05,120 so we've had about 2 000 years to reach 677 00:24:10,070 --> 00:24:06,720 where we are 678 00:24:12,789 --> 00:24:10,080 back then po pre-flood they had about 3 679 00:24:14,549 --> 00:24:12,799 000 years so then that raises a question 680 00:24:16,710 --> 00:24:14,559 what what would they have known what 681 00:24:18,630 --> 00:24:16,720 would their understanding have been of 682 00:24:20,710 --> 00:24:18,640 genetics and dna 683 00:24:22,390 --> 00:24:20,720 how would they have approached that 684 00:24:23,750 --> 00:24:22,400 what priorities would they have given 685 00:24:25,430 --> 00:24:23,760 and how would they have done that in a 686 00:24:27,269 --> 00:24:25,440 different way 687 00:24:28,630 --> 00:24:27,279 some people would go even further i mean 688 00:24:30,789 --> 00:24:28,640 if you want to go all the way back to 689 00:24:34,390 --> 00:24:30,799 some of the babylonian records and seven 690 00:24:37,029 --> 00:24:34,400 and a half 10 000 bc egyptian records we 691 00:24:38,390 --> 00:24:37,039 know they started at about 12 000 bc and 692 00:24:39,190 --> 00:24:38,400 they had stuff going further back than 693 00:24:41,269 --> 00:24:39,200 that 694 00:24:43,110 --> 00:24:41,279 none of it's really survived not in a 695 00:24:45,029 --> 00:24:43,120 form we can follow but it means that 696 00:24:47,430 --> 00:24:45,039 there have been other races of humans 697 00:24:49,830 --> 00:24:47,440 certainly in the thousands of years that 698 00:24:52,549 --> 00:24:49,840 could have had chance to significantly 699 00:24:53,590 --> 00:24:52,559 alter the way that we are 700 00:24:55,750 --> 00:24:53,600 now 701 00:24:57,830 --> 00:24:55,760 um so 702 00:24:59,269 --> 00:24:57,840 i'm not ruling it out i wouldn't rule 703 00:25:01,430 --> 00:24:59,279 out that 704 00:25:03,909 --> 00:25:01,440 dna of some kind could have been added 705 00:25:05,669 --> 00:25:03,919 to us from elsewhere you know because 706 00:25:09,350 --> 00:25:05,679 we're doing the old mix and match thing 707 00:25:12,310 --> 00:25:09,360 ourselves now so that's right yeah 708 00:25:14,390 --> 00:25:12,320 it it it's fascinating i had uh gary 709 00:25:18,149 --> 00:25:14,400 knoll dr gary nolan from stanford 710 00:25:20,470 --> 00:25:18,159 university professor there um in 711 00:25:22,950 --> 00:25:20,480 in in this same line of study he was on 712 00:25:23,909 --> 00:25:22,960 recently and during the show he talked 713 00:25:25,510 --> 00:25:23,919 about 714 00:25:28,549 --> 00:25:25,520 a um 715 00:25:32,070 --> 00:25:28,559 about life let's see it's basically 716 00:25:36,470 --> 00:25:32,080 linear regression of genetic complexity 717 00:25:38,789 --> 00:25:36,480 uh going all the way back to 9.7 718 00:25:41,029 --> 00:25:38,799 uh give or take two and a half billion 719 00:25:42,549 --> 00:25:41,039 years which is pretty bizarre if you 720 00:25:44,549 --> 00:25:42,559 think about it considering the earth is 721 00:25:45,430 --> 00:25:44,559 only four point something billion years 722 00:25:47,669 --> 00:25:45,440 old 723 00:25:50,390 --> 00:25:47,679 yeah so another explainable there's a 724 00:25:52,950 --> 00:25:50,400 there's a white paper on that um 725 00:25:55,350 --> 00:25:52,960 fascinating all this stuff fascinates me 726 00:25:57,590 --> 00:25:55,360 but in in a sense um 727 00:25:59,750 --> 00:25:57,600 i'm i'm i'm on the one hand i've got the 728 00:26:01,350 --> 00:25:59,760 scientific side of me which definitely 729 00:26:02,710 --> 00:26:01,360 follows the science but there's another 730 00:26:04,549 --> 00:26:02,720 side because i 731 00:26:06,310 --> 00:26:04,559 as a writer try to communicate to the 732 00:26:07,430 --> 00:26:06,320 public so sometimes i play devil's 733 00:26:11,510 --> 00:26:07,440 advocate 734 00:26:14,549 --> 00:26:11,520 to know what system 735 00:26:16,789 --> 00:26:14,559 he's using to get his dates 736 00:26:18,149 --> 00:26:16,799 because if he came on that's a question 737 00:26:20,710 --> 00:26:18,159 i'd love to ask somebody like that and 738 00:26:22,549 --> 00:26:20,720 say how how are you establishing the 739 00:26:24,950 --> 00:26:22,559 dates it's going to be something to do 740 00:26:27,750 --> 00:26:24,960 with rate of decay or you know amount of 741 00:26:29,750 --> 00:26:27,760 radiation or some of the content of 742 00:26:32,149 --> 00:26:29,760 whatever it is he's analyzing it'll be 743 00:26:34,390 --> 00:26:32,159 it'll be in there somewhere but i'd love 744 00:26:36,789 --> 00:26:34,400 to know exactly how he's doing it 745 00:26:37,990 --> 00:26:36,799 um because i do struggle and i presume 746 00:26:39,269 --> 00:26:38,000 an awful lot of your listeners will 747 00:26:41,350 --> 00:26:39,279 struggle as well with these these 748 00:26:43,830 --> 00:26:41,360 enormous figures absolutely 749 00:26:46,149 --> 00:26:43,840 catastrophically large figures which to 750 00:26:47,830 --> 00:26:46,159 be honest with you um the guys with the 751 00:26:49,990 --> 00:26:47,840 giant heads probably got their heads 752 00:26:51,269 --> 00:26:50,000 around that kind of number but to most 753 00:26:53,269 --> 00:26:51,279 people 754 00:26:55,190 --> 00:26:53,279 you know what i mean 755 00:26:57,590 --> 00:26:55,200 i'm glad and i'm going to send the white 756 00:26:59,510 --> 00:26:57,600 paper to you it's 26 pages long and i 757 00:27:00,630 --> 00:26:59,520 will send that to you 758 00:27:02,630 --> 00:27:00,640 let's have a look 759 00:27:04,149 --> 00:27:02,640 yeah i'm not i can't remember exactly 760 00:27:05,190 --> 00:27:04,159 where it was published but i know it's 761 00:27:07,269 --> 00:27:05,200 in there 762 00:27:08,789 --> 00:27:07,279 anyway uh yeah i was gonna say and then 763 00:27:09,990 --> 00:27:08,799 at some point i'll probably come back on 764 00:27:11,669 --> 00:27:10,000 again in the future and try and 765 00:27:12,870 --> 00:27:11,679 translate it so that people will 766 00:27:15,110 --> 00:27:12,880 understand 767 00:27:17,590 --> 00:27:15,120 why he's right because that seems to be 768 00:27:19,190 --> 00:27:17,600 my job 769 00:27:21,190 --> 00:27:19,200 here's a question for you going back to 770 00:27:23,350 --> 00:27:21,200 the crystal skulls can you 771 00:27:25,990 --> 00:27:23,360 uh tell us how many confirmed 772 00:27:27,909 --> 00:27:26,000 crystal skulls have been found and he 773 00:27:30,070 --> 00:27:27,919 also puts down there i i know some have 774 00:27:31,990 --> 00:27:30,080 proven to be hoaxes yes i've heard about 775 00:27:33,830 --> 00:27:32,000 those two 776 00:27:36,070 --> 00:27:33,840 right there's an official and there's an 777 00:27:38,710 --> 00:27:36,080 unofficial answer to that the official 778 00:27:40,470 --> 00:27:38,720 answer to it are you ready for this is 779 00:27:42,710 --> 00:27:40,480 two 780 00:27:47,269 --> 00:27:42,720 that's all there is 781 00:27:48,549 --> 00:27:47,279 is tiny 782 00:27:50,710 --> 00:27:48,559 the reason i say that is that 783 00:27:52,470 --> 00:27:50,720 archaeologists are absolute sticklers 784 00:27:55,029 --> 00:27:52,480 and if it's not in an archaeological 785 00:27:57,430 --> 00:27:55,039 context and it's not recorded and you 786 00:28:00,870 --> 00:27:57,440 can't say that's where i found it 787 00:28:02,549 --> 00:28:00,880 then they will say it's not real now i 788 00:28:05,510 --> 00:28:02,559 know this too because there's one in the 789 00:28:07,269 --> 00:28:05,520 ball park at cobra in the floor of the 790 00:28:09,510 --> 00:28:07,279 ballpark set there you can actually see 791 00:28:11,269 --> 00:28:09,520 it it's a white quartz one and there was 792 00:28:17,830 --> 00:28:11,279 another one that came from some aztec 793 00:28:21,590 --> 00:28:19,669 the one in the ballpark again you'd have 794 00:28:23,909 --> 00:28:21,600 to buy the book my point is 795 00:28:26,070 --> 00:28:23,919 because i've not seen any photos of it 796 00:28:27,669 --> 00:28:26,080 online that's it there's your book right 797 00:28:30,149 --> 00:28:27,679 there dash out and buy that because 798 00:28:31,430 --> 00:28:30,159 there's a photo of it in there so if i'm 799 00:28:34,070 --> 00:28:31,440 taking the party line if i'm being 800 00:28:36,070 --> 00:28:34,080 official then the answer's two 801 00:28:37,990 --> 00:28:36,080 if you want to look at how many are 802 00:28:39,029 --> 00:28:38,000 claimed to be 803 00:28:41,669 --> 00:28:39,039 true 804 00:28:43,830 --> 00:28:41,679 before mass production 805 00:28:44,950 --> 00:28:43,840 and i really do say before mass 806 00:28:47,269 --> 00:28:44,960 production 807 00:28:49,350 --> 00:28:47,279 um the ones that have filtered out into 808 00:28:50,789 --> 00:28:49,360 the museum so the british museum the 809 00:28:52,950 --> 00:28:50,799 ones in paris 810 00:28:55,590 --> 00:28:52,960 uh the mitchell hedgie school etc 811 00:28:58,389 --> 00:28:55,600 there's around about 812 00:29:01,590 --> 00:28:58,399 eight or ten of them depending on who 813 00:29:03,590 --> 00:29:01,600 you read and you know uh who you believe 814 00:29:06,070 --> 00:29:03,600 and prize it hands them maybe another 815 00:29:08,310 --> 00:29:06,080 two or three because i've got one 816 00:29:11,430 --> 00:29:08,320 so i certainly don't think there's more 817 00:29:13,029 --> 00:29:11,440 than maybe about 13 or 14 of them where 818 00:29:15,190 --> 00:29:13,039 you can actually you can look at the 819 00:29:17,909 --> 00:29:15,200 skull and go that has got 820 00:29:19,830 --> 00:29:17,919 documentary evidence going back to 821 00:29:22,389 --> 00:29:19,840 the guy that you know whatever gave it 822 00:29:24,070 --> 00:29:22,399 to museum sold it did whatever it would 823 00:29:25,990 --> 00:29:24,080 have to go back to the first half of the 824 00:29:27,990 --> 00:29:26,000 1800s really you'd have to go back to 825 00:29:29,909 --> 00:29:28,000 the beginning of the 19th century to be 826 00:29:31,669 --> 00:29:29,919 able to say that they weren't mass 827 00:29:34,149 --> 00:29:31,679 producing these things 828 00:29:36,549 --> 00:29:34,159 um so nowadays it's it's almost 829 00:29:38,630 --> 00:29:36,559 impossible now to know where they're 830 00:29:40,549 --> 00:29:38,640 coming from unless they're coming out of 831 00:29:41,830 --> 00:29:40,559 an archaeological context 832 00:29:44,149 --> 00:29:41,840 very difficult 833 00:29:46,630 --> 00:29:44,159 yeah i mean you can buy them you can 834 00:29:47,990 --> 00:29:46,640 order one online yep 835 00:29:49,830 --> 00:29:48,000 yeah so and it's not going to be a 836 00:29:52,389 --> 00:29:49,840 nature when i guarantee you that i was 837 00:29:54,070 --> 00:29:52,399 looking at a box of about 200 of them 838 00:29:55,190 --> 00:29:54,080 thumb size the size of the end of your 839 00:29:57,190 --> 00:29:55,200 thumb 840 00:29:58,870 --> 00:29:57,200 sat there and carved them all and 841 00:30:01,430 --> 00:29:58,880 you know so it's it's got crazy it's 842 00:30:02,710 --> 00:30:01,440 going crazy now right right i think you 843 00:30:05,830 --> 00:30:02,720 answered this but i'm going to put it up 844 00:30:07,909 --> 00:30:05,840 here anyway i had so many multi-spectral 845 00:30:10,470 --> 00:30:07,919 analysis of skulls particularly in the 846 00:30:14,149 --> 00:30:10,480 older and more extraordinary ones 847 00:30:16,310 --> 00:30:14,159 has uh any measured any measured effect 848 00:30:18,950 --> 00:30:16,320 been measured 849 00:30:21,750 --> 00:30:18,960 again all i can tell you is um what i 850 00:30:24,870 --> 00:30:21,760 could discover um i could discover that 851 00:30:27,110 --> 00:30:24,880 um one or two of them have had curling 852 00:30:28,630 --> 00:30:27,120 photography done on them to have a look 853 00:30:29,830 --> 00:30:28,640 at the energy that the quartz is 854 00:30:31,830 --> 00:30:29,840 producing 855 00:30:34,230 --> 00:30:31,840 now as far as science is concerned the 856 00:30:36,630 --> 00:30:34,240 energy the electricity that quartz puts 857 00:30:38,870 --> 00:30:36,640 out is is a known phenomena it's a known 858 00:30:41,029 --> 00:30:38,880 factor so what you're seeing on curling 859 00:30:42,710 --> 00:30:41,039 photography is is 860 00:30:44,870 --> 00:30:42,720 real you know it's it's definitely there 861 00:30:46,389 --> 00:30:44,880 it's genuine in terms of multi-spectral 862 00:30:48,149 --> 00:30:46,399 analysis i'm not really sure what you'd 863 00:30:51,110 --> 00:30:48,159 get back other than the impurities 864 00:30:53,190 --> 00:30:51,120 inside the the quartz silica that forms 865 00:30:54,950 --> 00:30:53,200 uh the quartz because it's clear quartz 866 00:30:57,509 --> 00:30:54,960 so you'd get all kinds of different 867 00:30:59,190 --> 00:30:57,519 readings as i say most analysis that's 868 00:31:01,669 --> 00:30:59,200 done on schools can tell you where the 869 00:31:04,470 --> 00:31:01,679 quartz was mined where it came from 870 00:31:06,710 --> 00:31:04,480 whereabouts in the world it originates 871 00:31:08,470 --> 00:31:06,720 which would rule out pretty fast if it 872 00:31:10,310 --> 00:31:08,480 was made from courts that didn't come 873 00:31:13,029 --> 00:31:10,320 from south america you'd know that it 874 00:31:14,789 --> 00:31:13,039 wasn't aztec or mayan or olmec or 875 00:31:17,110 --> 00:31:14,799 whatever you'd know uh pretty much 876 00:31:19,430 --> 00:31:17,120 straight away but as far as i'm aware 877 00:31:22,070 --> 00:31:19,440 it's not something that has been done on 878 00:31:23,430 --> 00:31:22,080 a big scale uh i mean 879 00:31:24,710 --> 00:31:23,440 there's something somebody could do try 880 00:31:26,630 --> 00:31:24,720 to gather as many of these schools 881 00:31:29,110 --> 00:31:26,640 together as as possible and do a proper 882 00:31:30,389 --> 00:31:29,120 analysis i do know the museums have done 883 00:31:32,870 --> 00:31:30,399 the micro 884 00:31:34,230 --> 00:31:32,880 surface analysis to have a look at 885 00:31:35,830 --> 00:31:34,240 manufacture 886 00:31:37,669 --> 00:31:35,840 because most of them have come back 887 00:31:38,950 --> 00:31:37,679 claiming that the ones they have a 888 00:31:41,110 --> 00:31:38,960 machine made and they're from the 889 00:31:42,710 --> 00:31:41,120 beginning of the victorian era they all 890 00:31:44,870 --> 00:31:42,720 seem to have wheel marks and scratch 891 00:31:47,430 --> 00:31:44,880 marks on them so i know that analysis 892 00:31:49,750 --> 00:31:47,440 has been done but i don't think modern 893 00:31:51,909 --> 00:31:49,760 science has been focused on any number 894 00:31:53,590 --> 00:31:51,919 of the schools um it's one of those 895 00:31:54,950 --> 00:31:53,600 things i wrote the book for because i 896 00:31:57,269 --> 00:31:54,960 thought you know there is there's a lot 897 00:31:59,509 --> 00:31:57,279 of unanswered questions here we can take 898 00:32:01,990 --> 00:31:59,519 this further so i would treat the book 899 00:32:04,310 --> 00:32:02,000 as a beginning not an end in itself uh 900 00:32:07,509 --> 00:32:04,320 more or less so yeah that's that's the 901 00:32:08,950 --> 00:32:07,519 answer really yeah now i i would believe 902 00:32:11,990 --> 00:32:08,960 now may be wrong 903 00:32:13,509 --> 00:32:12,000 but i might be right that uh quartz or 904 00:32:16,549 --> 00:32:13,519 any crystal 905 00:32:19,430 --> 00:32:16,559 rock crystal would be extremely hard to 906 00:32:21,430 --> 00:32:19,440 sculpt much harder than marble 907 00:32:23,269 --> 00:32:21,440 um do you know 908 00:32:25,509 --> 00:32:23,279 the comparison of the two as far as 909 00:32:26,470 --> 00:32:25,519 which is more difficult to 910 00:32:28,789 --> 00:32:26,480 sculpt 911 00:32:31,110 --> 00:32:28,799 well yeah i i i've got a passing 912 00:32:33,909 --> 00:32:31,120 knowledge of geology excuse me a minute 913 00:32:39,269 --> 00:32:36,630 i just don't want to deafen anybody um 914 00:32:41,430 --> 00:32:39,279 in geology we have got a hardness scale 915 00:32:44,389 --> 00:32:41,440 and i know that proper quartz real 916 00:32:47,669 --> 00:32:44,399 seriously well made silicon quartz is 917 00:32:49,430 --> 00:32:47,679 extremely hard um it's not as hard as as 918 00:32:51,669 --> 00:32:49,440 diamond or whatever compressed carbon or 919 00:32:53,590 --> 00:32:51,679 whatnot but it is extremely hard and it 920 00:32:55,110 --> 00:32:53,600 is very difficult to work 921 00:32:56,789 --> 00:32:55,120 hence the tool marks being a good 922 00:32:58,389 --> 00:32:56,799 indicator of 923 00:32:59,990 --> 00:32:58,399 you know what's going on because if 924 00:33:01,430 --> 00:33:00,000 there are marks in there then they're 925 00:33:05,830 --> 00:33:01,440 going to be really hard to get rid of 926 00:33:10,870 --> 00:33:07,350 good thing for that new button you have 927 00:33:11,909 --> 00:33:10,880 there that's good yeah yeah so uh yeah 928 00:33:12,789 --> 00:33:11,919 and 929 00:33:15,990 --> 00:33:12,799 so 930 00:33:18,389 --> 00:33:16,000 i understand you know as same with with 931 00:33:20,870 --> 00:33:18,399 uh marble sculpting marble it has to be 932 00:33:21,750 --> 00:33:20,880 polished a lot of times they polished um 933 00:33:22,830 --> 00:33:21,760 you know 934 00:33:26,149 --> 00:33:22,840 i'm sorry 935 00:33:28,710 --> 00:33:26,159 michelangelo used uh pumice and water 936 00:33:30,950 --> 00:33:28,720 and he said um you know a 14-foot david 937 00:33:35,029 --> 00:33:30,960 sculpture he yeah i can't imagine how 938 00:33:40,549 --> 00:33:37,750 very very slow process so yeah this this 939 00:33:41,430 --> 00:33:40,559 all fascinates me when was the 940 00:33:43,430 --> 00:33:41,440 uh 941 00:33:45,190 --> 00:33:43,440 one of the two you said there are two 942 00:33:48,870 --> 00:33:45,200 known you know really 943 00:33:50,870 --> 00:33:48,880 genuine um was one of them in the mayan 944 00:33:52,789 --> 00:33:50,880 ruins and was it in a shaft tomb and 945 00:33:53,990 --> 00:33:52,799 some type of tomb of some type where 946 00:33:57,190 --> 00:33:54,000 they found it 947 00:33:58,310 --> 00:33:57,200 no the one the one in cobra is set into 948 00:34:01,350 --> 00:33:58,320 the floor 949 00:34:03,509 --> 00:34:01,360 of the ballpark oh that's what you were 950 00:34:06,549 --> 00:34:03,519 talking about yeah yeah that that one 951 00:34:09,510 --> 00:34:06,559 and that's life size and it's white 952 00:34:11,990 --> 00:34:09,520 quartz so it's milky it's not clear 953 00:34:14,069 --> 00:34:12,000 it's milky and that is in literally in 954 00:34:16,230 --> 00:34:14,079 bang in the middle of the ball court um 955 00:34:19,430 --> 00:34:16,240 i'm not an enormous expert on the aztecs 956 00:34:23,030 --> 00:34:19,440 and mayans but skulls heads play quite a 957 00:34:24,230 --> 00:34:23,040 large part in the aztec ball game so i'm 958 00:34:26,230 --> 00:34:24,240 assuming that's the reason why it's 959 00:34:28,149 --> 00:34:26,240 there because it will represent death 960 00:34:29,750 --> 00:34:28,159 and it also represents the ball with the 961 00:34:31,190 --> 00:34:29,760 human head inside it covered in rubber 962 00:34:33,270 --> 00:34:31,200 that they used to play with 963 00:34:35,030 --> 00:34:33,280 so that was probably one of the reasons 964 00:34:37,109 --> 00:34:35,040 why it's there 965 00:34:38,950 --> 00:34:37,119 but that one is not widely known uh 966 00:34:41,589 --> 00:34:38,960 nobody's really made much mention of it 967 00:34:43,589 --> 00:34:41,599 which is why i'll put it in the book um 968 00:34:45,430 --> 00:34:43,599 i don't think it's been excavated that 969 00:34:46,470 --> 00:34:45,440 long either because the bit of cobra 970 00:34:47,990 --> 00:34:46,480 that it's in 971 00:34:49,589 --> 00:34:48,000 they've only done about ten percent of 972 00:34:51,990 --> 00:34:49,599 cobra ninety percent of it's still 973 00:34:53,829 --> 00:34:52,000 covered in jungle and snakes and things 974 00:34:55,909 --> 00:34:53,839 so the bit they've done 975 00:34:57,750 --> 00:34:55,919 uh hasn't hasn't been exposed that long 976 00:34:59,910 --> 00:34:57,760 so i don't think that's been widely 977 00:35:01,750 --> 00:34:59,920 reported the fact that that's there 978 00:35:03,750 --> 00:35:01,760 the other one the tiny one which is i 979 00:35:05,430 --> 00:35:03,760 think it's about yeah big i think it's 980 00:35:07,109 --> 00:35:05,440 about i'm gonna 981 00:35:09,109 --> 00:35:07,119 try and do this in centimeters about 982 00:35:09,829 --> 00:35:09,119 four four or five centimeters i think it 983 00:35:12,470 --> 00:35:09,839 is 984 00:35:13,750 --> 00:35:12,480 that's a clear quartz crystal skull it's 985 00:35:17,510 --> 00:35:13,760 a proper one 986 00:35:19,750 --> 00:35:17,520 and that came from aztec ruins in um 987 00:35:21,670 --> 00:35:19,760 uh just outside mexico i can't remember 988 00:35:24,710 --> 00:35:21,680 the exact village that it came from but 989 00:35:26,630 --> 00:35:24,720 that was it was a site under excavation 990 00:35:29,829 --> 00:35:26,640 so it was actually lifted out of the 991 00:35:32,150 --> 00:35:29,839 site by archaeologists now potentially 992 00:35:33,190 --> 00:35:32,160 that could have come from a ruined tomb 993 00:35:35,430 --> 00:35:33,200 um 994 00:35:36,790 --> 00:35:35,440 but the location unfortunately is it's 995 00:35:37,910 --> 00:35:36,800 difficult to ascertain where that one 996 00:35:40,150 --> 00:35:37,920 came from 997 00:35:41,910 --> 00:35:40,160 um because it's recorded but there was a 998 00:35:43,270 --> 00:35:41,920 comment that was um there was a comment 999 00:35:44,630 --> 00:35:43,280 passed when i was doing the research 1000 00:35:46,310 --> 00:35:44,640 into the schools 1001 00:35:48,390 --> 00:35:46,320 um somebody actually said to me they 1002 00:35:50,069 --> 00:35:48,400 said um i mean this is not in the book 1003 00:35:51,750 --> 00:35:50,079 it's this is kind of off the record i 1004 00:35:53,430 --> 00:35:51,760 was speaking to somebody uh in the south 1005 00:35:55,030 --> 00:35:53,440 american archaeological community and 1006 00:35:56,710 --> 00:35:55,040 they said do you know what they said if 1007 00:35:59,109 --> 00:35:56,720 we actually did start digging these 1008 00:36:00,870 --> 00:35:59,119 things up no actually no his words were 1009 00:36:02,710 --> 00:36:00,880 if we actually have 1010 00:36:04,150 --> 00:36:02,720 dug these things up 1011 00:36:05,910 --> 00:36:04,160 uh he said they would be national 1012 00:36:09,190 --> 00:36:05,920 treasures and we certainly wouldn't be 1013 00:36:12,550 --> 00:36:09,910 yeah 1014 00:36:14,230 --> 00:36:12,560 so you know um because 1015 00:36:16,069 --> 00:36:14,240 they would disappear you know these 1016 00:36:17,670 --> 00:36:16,079 things would be seriously valuable so 1017 00:36:19,270 --> 00:36:17,680 they don't usually mention it if they 1018 00:36:20,950 --> 00:36:19,280 turn up they try not not to say very 1019 00:36:21,910 --> 00:36:20,960 much about it really 1020 00:36:25,030 --> 00:36:21,920 yeah 1021 00:36:26,390 --> 00:36:25,040 has anyone said um this is what i now i 1022 00:36:28,470 --> 00:36:26,400 heard years ago 1023 00:36:32,069 --> 00:36:28,480 and it was after i i told you that i saw 1024 00:36:35,030 --> 00:36:32,079 this crystal skull up and at the expo in 1025 00:36:36,390 --> 00:36:35,040 canada um but there was supposed to be 1026 00:36:38,630 --> 00:36:36,400 some type of 1027 00:36:40,310 --> 00:36:38,640 like mysterious things happen 1028 00:36:42,790 --> 00:36:40,320 to the people that own them and things 1029 00:36:43,589 --> 00:36:42,800 like that has is there any stories like 1030 00:36:45,510 --> 00:36:43,599 that 1031 00:36:47,750 --> 00:36:45,520 oh there's loads absolutely loads my 1032 00:36:49,510 --> 00:36:47,760 favorite is the british museum one um 1033 00:36:53,030 --> 00:36:49,520 because in the 1970s apparently they had 1034 00:36:55,349 --> 00:36:53,040 the the school on display their school 1035 00:36:57,349 --> 00:36:55,359 crystal school and it was in its own 1036 00:37:00,310 --> 00:36:57,359 case they had their their own display 1037 00:37:02,710 --> 00:37:00,320 case and the security men kept packing 1038 00:37:05,750 --> 00:37:02,720 in the job and leaving because they said 1039 00:37:07,750 --> 00:37:05,760 the the problem with this school 1040 00:37:09,670 --> 00:37:07,760 is that when we go in there at night it 1041 00:37:11,510 --> 00:37:09,680 not only does it watch us follow us and 1042 00:37:13,670 --> 00:37:11,520 give us the creeps but occasionally it 1043 00:37:15,190 --> 00:37:13,680 glows blue 1044 00:37:16,790 --> 00:37:15,200 so you can imagine the british museum 1045 00:37:18,550 --> 00:37:16,800 like well you know we're a bit fed up 1046 00:37:20,630 --> 00:37:18,560 with losing security guys here i think 1047 00:37:22,630 --> 00:37:20,640 perhaps the best thing to do is put 1048 00:37:24,790 --> 00:37:22,640 shutters put shutters on the front of 1049 00:37:25,990 --> 00:37:24,800 the case so they ended up they've got it 1050 00:37:27,990 --> 00:37:26,000 now i think they might still have it 1051 00:37:30,390 --> 00:37:28,000 where the case actually shuts now it 1052 00:37:32,310 --> 00:37:30,400 closes at night with the remote 1053 00:37:33,349 --> 00:37:32,320 so it doesn't freak out the security 1054 00:37:35,829 --> 00:37:33,359 guards 1055 00:37:37,190 --> 00:37:35,839 and that's quite common you know um i 1056 00:37:39,670 --> 00:37:37,200 mean the one i've got lots of people 1057 00:37:41,190 --> 00:37:39,680 have handled it and it does blow hot and 1058 00:37:42,950 --> 00:37:41,200 cold some people pick it up and go oh 1059 00:37:44,550 --> 00:37:42,960 this is lovely it's gorgeous you know 1060 00:37:45,829 --> 00:37:44,560 please can i take this home with me and 1061 00:37:46,710 --> 00:37:45,839 then other people will pick it up and 1062 00:37:49,270 --> 00:37:46,720 just go 1063 00:37:51,829 --> 00:37:49,280 just put it straight down again so yeah 1064 00:37:54,390 --> 00:37:51,839 i'm sure that there's something about 1065 00:37:56,710 --> 00:37:54,400 the way the skills are made 1066 00:37:57,910 --> 00:37:56,720 that affects human beings on a sort of 1067 00:38:00,710 --> 00:37:57,920 physical 1068 00:38:02,630 --> 00:38:00,720 electrical spiritual level i think 1069 00:38:05,270 --> 00:38:02,640 there's a dimension to them there as 1070 00:38:07,030 --> 00:38:05,280 well uh because they are really 1071 00:38:09,750 --> 00:38:07,040 powerful objects you know they're 1072 00:38:12,230 --> 00:38:09,760 they're primal prime evil you know 1073 00:38:14,470 --> 00:38:12,240 they're it's it's we're staring at 1074 00:38:16,230 --> 00:38:14,480 something that that stares back 1075 00:38:17,910 --> 00:38:16,240 you know so there's there's definitely 1076 00:38:20,310 --> 00:38:17,920 lots going on with them but now the 1077 00:38:23,109 --> 00:38:20,320 british museum's my favorite story 1078 00:38:25,270 --> 00:38:23,119 yeah yeah and i know that one i do 1079 00:38:28,150 --> 00:38:25,280 believe that one has machine 1080 00:38:31,589 --> 00:38:28,160 uh marks of being 19th century correct 1081 00:38:34,069 --> 00:38:31,599 well yeah the the argument is that um 1082 00:38:36,550 --> 00:38:34,079 very simply uh the ones in paris and the 1083 00:38:39,910 --> 00:38:36,560 british museum they go back to a dealer 1084 00:38:42,390 --> 00:38:39,920 who was selling aztec and mayan um 1085 00:38:44,310 --> 00:38:42,400 remains selling bits and bobs 1086 00:38:46,950 --> 00:38:44,320 from his shop that's what he did he sold 1087 00:38:49,349 --> 00:38:46,960 south american stuff in paris 1088 00:38:52,950 --> 00:38:49,359 um between i think it was about 1820 1089 00:38:55,510 --> 00:38:52,960 1830 uh up to about 1860 and he's a very 1090 00:38:57,829 --> 00:38:55,520 famous guy for doing it and he always 1091 00:39:00,310 --> 00:38:57,839 sold it with paperwork so you knew where 1092 00:39:02,390 --> 00:39:00,320 these things were coming from um but the 1093 00:39:05,109 --> 00:39:02,400 argument is that this guy sold i think 1094 00:39:07,750 --> 00:39:05,119 he sold about four or five of these 1095 00:39:10,630 --> 00:39:07,760 skulls and they were all sold from the 1096 00:39:12,470 --> 00:39:10,640 same shop within the same period at 1097 00:39:13,990 --> 00:39:12,480 which point you know the detractors have 1098 00:39:16,870 --> 00:39:14,000 all jumped on board and gone well it's 1099 00:39:20,310 --> 00:39:16,880 quite obvious he's making them 1100 00:39:23,589 --> 00:39:20,320 but the defense in his defense 1101 00:39:25,270 --> 00:39:23,599 nothing else that he ever sold 1102 00:39:27,990 --> 00:39:25,280 was fake 1103 00:39:30,230 --> 00:39:28,000 hmm none of it and he's selling some 1104 00:39:33,030 --> 00:39:30,240 amazing aztec stuff you're talking real 1105 00:39:34,790 --> 00:39:33,040 gallery museum standard pieces that have 1106 00:39:36,870 --> 00:39:34,800 that have been there you know forever 1107 00:39:38,150 --> 00:39:36,880 they've been in these museums now 150 1108 00:39:40,390 --> 00:39:38,160 200 years 1109 00:39:41,990 --> 00:39:40,400 and he never sold fakes 1110 00:39:44,470 --> 00:39:42,000 so you look at these crystal skulls and 1111 00:39:47,190 --> 00:39:44,480 you go well somebody had to make them 1112 00:39:49,270 --> 00:39:47,200 so maybe they're fake in terms of how 1113 00:39:50,630 --> 00:39:49,280 old they're supposed to be 1114 00:39:52,150 --> 00:39:50,640 but that doesn't mean that they're not 1115 00:39:54,950 --> 00:39:52,160 crystal skulls made from crystal that 1116 00:39:57,510 --> 00:39:54,960 comes from south america made by aztecs 1117 00:39:58,710 --> 00:39:57,520 or mayans it did 1118 00:40:03,990 --> 00:39:58,720 so 1119 00:40:06,309 --> 00:40:04,000 the jury's still out on that one um i 1120 00:40:07,109 --> 00:40:06,319 don't think that you can automatically 1121 00:40:09,109 --> 00:40:07,119 say 1122 00:40:10,390 --> 00:40:09,119 that these things are fake i think one 1123 00:40:13,190 --> 00:40:10,400 of them 1124 00:40:15,589 --> 00:40:13,200 had um the water content test i was 1125 00:40:17,990 --> 00:40:15,599 talking about earlier uh performed on it 1126 00:40:19,990 --> 00:40:18,000 which can tell you how much water loss 1127 00:40:21,030 --> 00:40:20,000 has gone from the surface of a stone 1128 00:40:23,910 --> 00:40:21,040 object 1129 00:40:25,109 --> 00:40:23,920 and i have to say i think it came back 1130 00:40:27,109 --> 00:40:25,119 as being 1131 00:40:29,030 --> 00:40:27,119 early 19th century 1132 00:40:31,670 --> 00:40:29,040 so whether or not the guy in the shop 1133 00:40:33,670 --> 00:40:31,680 was fooled and you know sold a fake when 1134 00:40:34,790 --> 00:40:33,680 he was out there buying the real stuff i 1135 00:40:36,710 --> 00:40:34,800 don't know 1136 00:40:39,670 --> 00:40:36,720 but it didn't seem to have more than 1137 00:40:41,270 --> 00:40:39,680 about a 200 year old pedigree but again 1138 00:40:42,710 --> 00:40:41,280 you've got this argument you know what 1139 00:40:45,510 --> 00:40:42,720 where does 1140 00:40:47,190 --> 00:40:45,520 reality and fakery stop and end i mean 1141 00:40:49,510 --> 00:40:47,200 if it's aztec it's made from south 1142 00:40:51,589 --> 00:40:49,520 american crystal it's made by a mayan or 1143 00:40:53,750 --> 00:40:51,599 an aztec and it's you know it's done in 1144 00:40:55,349 --> 00:40:53,760 the real way and it you know it ends up 1145 00:40:57,270 --> 00:40:55,359 being life-size because that's another 1146 00:40:59,030 --> 00:40:57,280 thing as well with these schools i'm 1147 00:41:00,870 --> 00:40:59,040 very fussy with the definition i think 1148 00:41:03,430 --> 00:41:00,880 they need to be 1149 00:41:05,910 --> 00:41:03,440 at least the size of a small child or 1150 00:41:08,550 --> 00:41:05,920 bigger in order to qualify as as being 1151 00:41:09,589 --> 00:41:08,560 real they've got to be life-sized so 1152 00:41:12,069 --> 00:41:09,599 when you start getting into the 1153 00:41:14,470 --> 00:41:12,079 definitions there's a blurred area a 1154 00:41:16,230 --> 00:41:14,480 gray area which i think probably covers 1155 00:41:18,870 --> 00:41:16,240 quite a few of the schools that uh that 1156 00:41:20,710 --> 00:41:18,880 there are in museums 1157 00:41:22,710 --> 00:41:20,720 until we find some way of doing a better 1158 00:41:24,870 --> 00:41:22,720 job of dating them i think we're gonna 1159 00:41:26,790 --> 00:41:24,880 have to be stuck with that as a as a way 1160 00:41:28,390 --> 00:41:26,800 of of looking at them 1161 00:41:30,870 --> 00:41:28,400 you know we have a 1162 00:41:33,430 --> 00:41:30,880 um obviously we have a fascination with 1163 00:41:36,150 --> 00:41:33,440 human heads you know i mean for us to do 1164 00:41:38,630 --> 00:41:36,160 this but uh it is kind of fascinating 1165 00:41:39,910 --> 00:41:38,640 why high technology it'll stop me from 1166 00:41:42,710 --> 00:41:39,920 coughing 1167 00:41:45,430 --> 00:41:42,720 there you go but it's uh 1168 00:41:47,589 --> 00:41:45,440 this skull is kind of strange you know 1169 00:41:49,990 --> 00:41:47,599 you'd almost think i mean i see a lot of 1170 00:41:52,230 --> 00:41:50,000 times in you know i i mentioned i'm an 1171 00:41:54,630 --> 00:41:52,240 appraiser and a lot of times i'll go in 1172 00:41:57,109 --> 00:41:54,640 places and you know you see buddha heads 1173 00:41:58,630 --> 00:41:57,119 but the buddha yeah the buddha heads 1174 00:42:01,270 --> 00:41:58,640 people don't realize this you see them 1175 00:42:03,109 --> 00:42:01,280 all over the place they were knocked off 1176 00:42:04,630 --> 00:42:03,119 those were full statues that were 1177 00:42:07,270 --> 00:42:04,640 knocked the heads are knocked off yeah 1178 00:42:09,589 --> 00:42:07,280 they can by taurus and you know 100 1179 00:42:10,870 --> 00:42:09,599 years ago and brought because they 1180 00:42:13,109 --> 00:42:10,880 couldn't bring the whole statue back 1181 00:42:14,470 --> 00:42:13,119 they'd knock the heads off but and uh 1182 00:42:16,470 --> 00:42:14,480 but you do see 1183 00:42:18,790 --> 00:42:16,480 there is a fascination with heads in 1184 00:42:20,550 --> 00:42:18,800 general i mean you do see that it's kind 1185 00:42:22,069 --> 00:42:20,560 of strange but it's the prominent thing 1186 00:42:23,670 --> 00:42:22,079 we're looking at when we're talking to 1187 00:42:26,150 --> 00:42:23,680 each other yeah i guess that's what it 1188 00:42:27,829 --> 00:42:26,160 is yeah i mean i i occasionally get well 1189 00:42:28,870 --> 00:42:27,839 if all the time i get people bringing me 1190 00:42:30,630 --> 00:42:28,880 things because ah you're an 1191 00:42:32,390 --> 00:42:30,640 archaeologist you can you can date 1192 00:42:33,829 --> 00:42:32,400 something if it's old 1193 00:42:35,910 --> 00:42:33,839 and then you get a lot of the bronze 1194 00:42:37,430 --> 00:42:35,920 buddhas and iron buddha heads and 1195 00:42:39,270 --> 00:42:37,440 whatnot i mean 1196 00:42:40,950 --> 00:42:39,280 they still make them now they might not 1197 00:42:42,630 --> 00:42:40,960 exactly the same way they used to and 1198 00:42:44,950 --> 00:42:42,640 they just go and bury them in a pile of 1199 00:42:46,870 --> 00:42:44,960 dung for like you know a few months 1200 00:42:47,750 --> 00:42:46,880 that's exactly what that's exactly what 1201 00:42:50,630 --> 00:42:47,760 they do 1202 00:42:52,309 --> 00:42:50,640 um you do that with iron too 1203 00:42:54,230 --> 00:42:52,319 yeah they look like they're hundreds of 1204 00:42:56,309 --> 00:42:54,240 years old that's right 1205 00:42:58,870 --> 00:42:56,319 yeah yeah yeah i do a lot of work with 1206 00:43:00,870 --> 00:42:58,880 that type of thing and have to work with 1207 00:43:03,589 --> 00:43:00,880 um sometimes with experts that really 1208 00:43:06,309 --> 00:43:03,599 know uh exactly what to look for yeah 1209 00:43:07,829 --> 00:43:06,319 here's here's another um 1210 00:43:10,150 --> 00:43:07,839 question up here 1211 00:43:12,069 --> 00:43:10,160 this is not about the skulls itself is 1212 00:43:14,630 --> 00:43:12,079 the fascination solely on the mystery of 1213 00:43:16,790 --> 00:43:14,640 creation method or is there some extra 1214 00:43:18,950 --> 00:43:16,800 that people are claiming 1215 00:43:20,950 --> 00:43:18,960 uh anything we can measure and replicate 1216 00:43:22,470 --> 00:43:20,960 i'm i'm wondering if you saw was that 1217 00:43:24,950 --> 00:43:22,480 question may have come up when we're 1218 00:43:27,190 --> 00:43:24,960 talking about the possibility of of of 1219 00:43:28,950 --> 00:43:27,200 life uh changing you know as far as 1220 00:43:31,109 --> 00:43:28,960 humans changing 1221 00:43:32,630 --> 00:43:31,119 does this question make any sense to you 1222 00:43:35,349 --> 00:43:32,640 if not 1223 00:43:37,990 --> 00:43:35,359 mystery of creation method 1224 00:43:41,190 --> 00:43:38,000 possibly it might be to do with 1225 00:43:43,829 --> 00:43:41,200 uh creating the skulls even is there 1226 00:43:47,430 --> 00:43:43,839 something else we can look at 1227 00:43:49,829 --> 00:43:47,440 to be able to date the crystal skulls 1228 00:43:53,190 --> 00:43:49,839 um which i think the answer is gonna be 1229 00:43:55,349 --> 00:43:53,200 this this loss of fluid from stone the 1230 00:43:57,349 --> 00:43:55,359 rate at which it loses fluid will give 1231 00:43:59,910 --> 00:43:57,359 you a rough idea of how much time the 1232 00:44:01,430 --> 00:43:59,920 surface has been exposed um i think 1233 00:44:02,950 --> 00:44:01,440 that's going to be the way ahead so that 1234 00:44:04,790 --> 00:44:02,960 kind of answers that 1235 00:44:07,190 --> 00:44:04,800 so when when you're talking about this 1236 00:44:10,230 --> 00:44:07,200 fluid and 1237 00:44:13,109 --> 00:44:10,240 and dissipating or whatever happens 1238 00:44:14,870 --> 00:44:13,119 well you have a stone a solid stone yeah 1239 00:44:17,990 --> 00:44:14,880 you're talking about after you cut the 1240 00:44:18,950 --> 00:44:18,000 stone that's when the water i mean the 1241 00:44:20,150 --> 00:44:18,960 moisture 1242 00:44:23,109 --> 00:44:20,160 transfers 1243 00:44:24,790 --> 00:44:23,119 i think there's a way i can't i mean i 1244 00:44:27,270 --> 00:44:24,800 don't do this process of analysis 1245 00:44:28,710 --> 00:44:27,280 because it is just so new that um it's 1246 00:44:32,230 --> 00:44:28,720 something that's only just developing 1247 00:44:34,470 --> 00:44:32,240 now but i believe that by analyzing the 1248 00:44:36,790 --> 00:44:34,480 stone in other words what's inside it 1249 00:44:38,870 --> 00:44:36,800 and how it's made and all the rest of it 1250 00:44:39,990 --> 00:44:38,880 they can get an idea of what the water 1251 00:44:42,630 --> 00:44:40,000 content 1252 00:44:44,309 --> 00:44:42,640 of that particular rock 1253 00:44:46,390 --> 00:44:44,319 should be 1254 00:44:49,430 --> 00:44:46,400 and then what they do is they go to the 1255 00:44:50,470 --> 00:44:49,440 surface of the rock the actual worked 1256 00:44:52,950 --> 00:44:50,480 areas 1257 00:44:55,990 --> 00:44:52,960 and look at what the water loss the the 1258 00:44:57,270 --> 00:44:56,000 fluid content in that part of the stone 1259 00:44:59,190 --> 00:44:57,280 has been 1260 00:45:01,430 --> 00:44:59,200 and somebody some clever bright spark 1261 00:45:02,390 --> 00:45:01,440 has come up with a you know a kind of a 1262 00:45:05,109 --> 00:45:02,400 table 1263 00:45:07,670 --> 00:45:05,119 of how long it takes for different 1264 00:45:10,550 --> 00:45:07,680 stones with different content water 1265 00:45:12,470 --> 00:45:10,560 content to basically dry out 1266 00:45:13,990 --> 00:45:12,480 so you can look at a surface and you can 1267 00:45:15,190 --> 00:45:14,000 go well you know that's going to take 70 1268 00:45:17,349 --> 00:45:15,200 years for that to dry out or it's going 1269 00:45:19,190 --> 00:45:17,359 to take 200 years for that to dry out 1270 00:45:21,910 --> 00:45:19,200 and what they're doing there is they are 1271 00:45:24,790 --> 00:45:21,920 getting some kind of ballpark figure as 1272 00:45:27,829 --> 00:45:24,800 as to how long that has been the way 1273 00:45:29,510 --> 00:45:27,839 that it appears when we find it 1274 00:45:31,349 --> 00:45:29,520 um i think originally it was done to 1275 00:45:33,109 --> 00:45:31,359 identify things like roman sculptures 1276 00:45:35,670 --> 00:45:33,119 medieval sculptures 1277 00:45:37,349 --> 00:45:35,680 i see and as and as a means of appraisal 1278 00:45:39,589 --> 00:45:37,359 you know to to try and decide if it's a 1279 00:45:41,190 --> 00:45:39,599 fake or a real one i mean a fake would 1280 00:45:43,750 --> 00:45:41,200 just register as still having the same 1281 00:45:45,589 --> 00:45:43,760 water content as as it had yesterday you 1282 00:45:47,750 --> 00:45:45,599 know because it wouldn't lose any 1283 00:45:50,309 --> 00:45:47,760 but if it's been exposed for say 2000 1284 00:45:52,390 --> 00:45:50,319 years it would be absolutely bone dry 1285 00:45:54,790 --> 00:45:52,400 the surface of it would would not be in 1286 00:45:57,270 --> 00:45:54,800 any way shape or form the same as what's 1287 00:45:58,710 --> 00:45:57,280 inside the stone itself 1288 00:46:00,950 --> 00:45:58,720 so i think that's roughly speaking 1289 00:46:02,390 --> 00:46:00,960 that's how the analysis works and i 1290 00:46:04,870 --> 00:46:02,400 would see that as being the way forward 1291 00:46:07,270 --> 00:46:04,880 for anything that's made of crystal 1292 00:46:08,790 --> 00:46:07,280 i see um yeah i know it would be nice if 1293 00:46:11,190 --> 00:46:08,800 someday they could 1294 00:46:13,270 --> 00:46:11,200 actually date things like the sphinx and 1295 00:46:15,030 --> 00:46:13,280 the pyramids to know exactly 1296 00:46:17,030 --> 00:46:15,040 you know how old they are but again we 1297 00:46:20,069 --> 00:46:17,040 have those are stone 1298 00:46:21,430 --> 00:46:20,079 and but i think i think geologically the 1299 00:46:23,589 --> 00:46:21,440 the amount of damage that's on the 1300 00:46:26,230 --> 00:46:23,599 sphinx um you know and the way it's been 1301 00:46:28,790 --> 00:46:26,240 reconstructed as an archaeologist i was 1302 00:46:30,470 --> 00:46:28,800 quite convinced by the 1303 00:46:32,230 --> 00:46:30,480 scenario that that might have been sat 1304 00:46:33,910 --> 00:46:32,240 there for ten thousand years ten and a 1305 00:46:36,069 --> 00:46:33,920 half thousand years i think there's a 1306 00:46:37,670 --> 00:46:36,079 lot of people with that in in mind yeah 1307 00:46:39,750 --> 00:46:37,680 but of course you know like you just 1308 00:46:42,150 --> 00:46:39,760 mentioned the the face of it's probably 1309 00:46:43,270 --> 00:46:42,160 been re-sculpted oh yeah it's definitely 1310 00:46:45,910 --> 00:46:43,280 not 1311 00:46:47,589 --> 00:46:45,920 none of that sphinx i've actually stood 1312 00:46:48,870 --> 00:46:47,599 next to it and i've touched it and i've 1313 00:46:49,910 --> 00:46:48,880 photographed it and walked all the way 1314 00:46:51,829 --> 00:46:49,920 around it and 1315 00:46:54,390 --> 00:46:51,839 it's uh it's what we call over here 1316 00:46:57,030 --> 00:46:54,400 heinz 57 there's 57 different varieties 1317 00:46:59,190 --> 00:46:57,040 of whatever all stuck to that piece of 1318 00:47:01,589 --> 00:46:59,200 rock you know it's not now what it once 1319 00:47:03,270 --> 00:47:01,599 was by any means uh but the original 1320 00:47:05,670 --> 00:47:03,280 bits the bits that are still there from 1321 00:47:08,069 --> 00:47:05,680 from days gone by are convincingly 1322 00:47:09,670 --> 00:47:08,079 extremely old and the pit that it sits 1323 00:47:11,430 --> 00:47:09,680 in 1324 00:47:13,990 --> 00:47:11,440 the sides of it are water damaged and 1325 00:47:16,470 --> 00:47:14,000 you can see there's a lot been going on 1326 00:47:18,710 --> 00:47:16,480 uh you know surrounding it that it's 1327 00:47:19,750 --> 00:47:18,720 been inflicted upon it you know over 1328 00:47:21,990 --> 00:47:19,760 time 1329 00:47:23,750 --> 00:47:22,000 i wonder what's underneath that that 1330 00:47:25,589 --> 00:47:23,760 would be interesting well i managed to 1331 00:47:27,750 --> 00:47:25,599 find two entrances there's one be 1332 00:47:30,150 --> 00:47:27,760 between the paws behind the the stone 1333 00:47:31,589 --> 00:47:30,160 stele that's there and that disappears 1334 00:47:33,430 --> 00:47:31,599 down the back and then vanishes into the 1335 00:47:35,670 --> 00:47:33,440 front of the sphinx and if you go all 1336 00:47:37,190 --> 00:47:35,680 the way around the back um 1337 00:47:39,270 --> 00:47:37,200 if you don't go on the side where the 1338 00:47:41,430 --> 00:47:39,280 tail is if you go on the other side 1339 00:47:44,549 --> 00:47:41,440 just forward of its back pole there's a 1340 00:47:47,349 --> 00:47:44,559 very distinct entrance there with a very 1341 00:47:49,270 --> 00:47:47,359 warm set of almost inaccessible stairs 1342 00:47:52,470 --> 00:47:49,280 that disappear down 1343 00:47:54,390 --> 00:47:52,480 and i i believe i believe from fellow 1344 00:47:55,510 --> 00:47:54,400 archaeologists that there are chambers 1345 00:47:57,829 --> 00:47:55,520 under there 1346 00:48:00,549 --> 00:47:57,839 that eventually lead to a vertical shaft 1347 00:48:02,710 --> 00:48:00,559 that has a black basalt coffin at the 1348 00:48:03,589 --> 00:48:02,720 bottom of it 1349 00:48:05,030 --> 00:48:03,599 really 1350 00:48:06,630 --> 00:48:05,040 yeah yeah then it starts getting a bit 1351 00:48:08,309 --> 00:48:06,640 woolly after that because 1352 00:48:10,309 --> 00:48:08,319 there's nothing in the coffin and 1353 00:48:13,109 --> 00:48:10,319 occasionally it floods so it's it's not 1354 00:48:14,230 --> 00:48:13,119 always easy to get to but then some of 1355 00:48:15,990 --> 00:48:14,240 people are saying that there are 1356 00:48:17,589 --> 00:48:16,000 doorways that lead off that are 1357 00:48:19,349 --> 00:48:17,599 corridors that go off from that and some 1358 00:48:21,510 --> 00:48:19,359 people are saying that there aren't 1359 00:48:23,270 --> 00:48:21,520 but um having seen what i've seen over 1360 00:48:24,710 --> 00:48:23,280 the years i i would favor that there 1361 00:48:27,030 --> 00:48:24,720 will be other entrances and other 1362 00:48:28,870 --> 00:48:27,040 corridors underneath there the whole of 1363 00:48:31,190 --> 00:48:28,880 the giza plateau is basically like a 1364 00:48:33,349 --> 00:48:31,200 swiss cheese it's just full of holes 1365 00:48:34,549 --> 00:48:33,359 it's crazy i went i went riding across 1366 00:48:36,309 --> 00:48:34,559 there on a horse somebody's trying to 1367 00:48:38,150 --> 00:48:36,319 get me on a camel so you could ride 1368 00:48:39,750 --> 00:48:38,160 across a giza plateau on a camel i'm not 1369 00:48:41,670 --> 00:48:39,760 riding across that on a camel no way 1370 00:48:43,670 --> 00:48:41,680 have you ever seen how a camel walks 1371 00:48:45,430 --> 00:48:43,680 yeah yeah and there's just there's holes 1372 00:48:46,710 --> 00:48:45,440 everywhere and we're soaking seriously 1373 00:48:47,750 --> 00:48:46,720 big holes 1374 00:48:48,950 --> 00:48:47,760 anyway 1375 00:48:50,549 --> 00:48:48,960 when we went off for the ride they 1376 00:48:51,910 --> 00:48:50,559 weren't laughing then because i was fine 1377 00:48:53,190 --> 00:48:51,920 i'm there on my horse that's good hey 1378 00:48:54,950 --> 00:48:53,200 this is great the horse is going in 1379 00:48:57,109 --> 00:48:54,960 straight line camels are all over the 1380 00:48:58,470 --> 00:48:57,119 place there's all these huge enormous 1381 00:48:59,670 --> 00:48:58,480 holes you know 1382 00:49:01,190 --> 00:48:59,680 i don't know what i was thinking about 1383 00:49:03,270 --> 00:49:01,200 when i said that i thought we could take 1384 00:49:05,270 --> 00:49:03,280 calls because we only have 10 minutes i 1385 00:49:06,470 --> 00:49:05,280 have an appointment it's the but you 1386 00:49:07,910 --> 00:49:06,480 know i'm going to have to have you back 1387 00:49:10,309 --> 00:49:07,920 on again because this is way too 1388 00:49:11,990 --> 00:49:10,319 fascinating for me but um 1389 00:49:13,990 --> 00:49:12,000 um and i'm not going to be able to take 1390 00:49:15,750 --> 00:49:14,000 calls i i did tell everyone at the 1391 00:49:18,150 --> 00:49:15,760 beginning of the hour that 1392 00:49:19,990 --> 00:49:18,160 we'll touch a little bit on ufos i don't 1393 00:49:21,910 --> 00:49:20,000 even know how ufos could tie into 1394 00:49:23,190 --> 00:49:21,920 anything at this point we're pretty much 1395 00:49:24,549 --> 00:49:23,200 uh 1396 00:49:27,349 --> 00:49:24,559 we're pretty much stuck right in this 1397 00:49:29,109 --> 00:49:27,359 right i i can say i can i mean we seem 1398 00:49:30,309 --> 00:49:29,119 to have used the book as a thread so i'm 1399 00:49:32,150 --> 00:49:30,319 going to do the same thing again while 1400 00:49:33,829 --> 00:49:32,160 we've only got the 10 minutes left 1401 00:49:36,390 --> 00:49:33,839 i i do say 1402 00:49:37,910 --> 00:49:36,400 openly i am a believer in unidentified 1403 00:49:39,910 --> 00:49:37,920 flying objects i have no problem with 1404 00:49:42,630 --> 00:49:39,920 that whatsoever um in fact i've got a 1405 00:49:44,790 --> 00:49:42,640 piece of a crashed one in the garage 1406 00:49:47,109 --> 00:49:44,800 here uh which was given to me by a 1407 00:49:50,069 --> 00:49:47,119 recovery team that actually recovered a 1408 00:49:52,230 --> 00:49:50,079 case full um so there is actually out 1409 00:49:54,390 --> 00:49:52,240 there somewhere there's a dvd thing that 1410 00:49:58,069 --> 00:49:54,400 i produce called europe's roswell and 1411 00:50:00,549 --> 00:49:58,079 that covers that particular crash 1412 00:50:02,150 --> 00:50:00,559 familiar i remember yeah yeah hearing 1413 00:50:03,589 --> 00:50:02,160 about that so you know i'm definitely 1414 00:50:05,030 --> 00:50:03,599 going to have to be talking to you now 1415 00:50:07,349 --> 00:50:05,040 after you just 1416 00:50:08,710 --> 00:50:07,359 that bombshell yeah well well i am very 1417 00:50:11,670 --> 00:50:08,720 much a believer and if you go back to 1418 00:50:13,589 --> 00:50:11,680 the book i do deal with the issue of of 1419 00:50:15,829 --> 00:50:13,599 extraterrestrial life and 1420 00:50:17,910 --> 00:50:15,839 you know coming in and out of our 1421 00:50:19,990 --> 00:50:17,920 reality i deal with that in the last 1422 00:50:22,710 --> 00:50:20,000 chapter of the book called alien heads 1423 00:50:24,549 --> 00:50:22,720 um but in my particular case i've chosen 1424 00:50:27,109 --> 00:50:24,559 to nail my colours to a slightly 1425 00:50:29,750 --> 00:50:27,119 different mast because 1426 00:50:31,910 --> 00:50:29,760 as much as people think that these guys 1427 00:50:34,470 --> 00:50:31,920 you know come flying in and out of 1428 00:50:35,990 --> 00:50:34,480 planet earth from venus and galaxies far 1429 00:50:37,829 --> 00:50:36,000 away and there's something other 1430 00:50:39,430 --> 00:50:37,839 nobody seems to seriously looked at the 1431 00:50:41,430 --> 00:50:39,440 issue of time travel 1432 00:50:43,510 --> 00:50:41,440 and i think certainly now in the 21st 1433 00:50:45,990 --> 00:50:43,520 century i think time travel and the way 1434 00:50:48,390 --> 00:50:46,000 time operates the way time functions 1435 00:50:49,829 --> 00:50:48,400 is going to become a fairly major issue 1436 00:50:52,230 --> 00:50:49,839 now obviously as an archaeologist 1437 00:50:54,950 --> 00:50:52,240 historian time is something that's very 1438 00:50:57,910 --> 00:50:54,960 very close to my heart so i finished the 1439 00:51:00,230 --> 00:50:57,920 book off dealing with this issue of time 1440 00:51:02,470 --> 00:51:00,240 and these guys are whizzing around in 1441 00:51:04,470 --> 00:51:02,480 flying saucers and all the rest of it 1442 00:51:06,950 --> 00:51:04,480 i don't think time is a limitation to 1443 00:51:09,589 --> 00:51:06,960 them i don't think that they are 1444 00:51:10,870 --> 00:51:09,599 uh linear in the same way that we are 1445 00:51:12,549 --> 00:51:10,880 and as soon as you start looking at 1446 00:51:14,470 --> 00:51:12,559 things like that some of these guys 1447 00:51:16,630 --> 00:51:14,480 might actually be yours from the distant 1448 00:51:19,109 --> 00:51:16,640 past or they might be yours from the 1449 00:51:20,950 --> 00:51:19,119 distant future yeah exactly all right 1450 00:51:22,630 --> 00:51:20,960 well i want you when we hang up i want 1451 00:51:25,349 --> 00:51:22,640 you to i want you to get on your 1452 00:51:27,349 --> 00:51:25,359 computer and look up dr michael masters 1453 00:51:28,790 --> 00:51:27,359 oh absolutely he's absolutely he's 1454 00:51:30,630 --> 00:51:28,800 someone that's been really he's really 1455 00:51:32,710 --> 00:51:30,640 been on this topic he's a friend of that 1456 00:51:36,150 --> 00:51:32,720 girl yeah when you send me that white 1457 00:51:38,150 --> 00:51:36,160 paper just a little note on it well yeah 1458 00:51:39,990 --> 00:51:38,160 i'll have to do that tonight but uh so 1459 00:51:41,430 --> 00:51:40,000 this is uh we have another question up 1460 00:51:42,790 --> 00:51:41,440 here was gonna try to get to all the 1461 00:51:44,950 --> 00:51:42,800 questions and we have about seven 1462 00:51:47,510 --> 00:51:44,960 minutes left uh what is the scientific 1463 00:51:51,270 --> 00:51:47,520 name of the species homo sapiens evolved 1464 00:51:53,670 --> 00:51:51,280 from getting back to that wow um well 1465 00:51:56,630 --> 00:51:53,680 we're homo sapiens sapiens that's what 1466 00:51:58,630 --> 00:51:56,640 we are so uh we are 1467 00:52:01,589 --> 00:51:58,640 one of the species 1468 00:52:06,950 --> 00:52:01,599 and we go back to we can identify as 1469 00:52:09,270 --> 00:52:06,960 clearly around about 43 000 bc 1470 00:52:11,270 --> 00:52:09,280 and believe it or not i think it's a 1471 00:52:12,549 --> 00:52:11,280 czech republic i think that comes from 1472 00:52:14,230 --> 00:52:12,559 there's excavations in the czech 1473 00:52:15,190 --> 00:52:14,240 republic where they're getting these 1474 00:52:20,150 --> 00:52:15,200 very 1475 00:52:22,309 --> 00:52:20,160 clearly us um and that's where they're 1476 00:52:25,589 --> 00:52:22,319 coming from so we we are actually a 1477 00:52:27,510 --> 00:52:25,599 prehistoric fossil species ourselves 1478 00:52:28,710 --> 00:52:27,520 um but that at that point that's just 1479 00:52:30,390 --> 00:52:28,720 happens to be the furthest they've got 1480 00:52:32,790 --> 00:52:30,400 us back they just haven't found anything 1481 00:52:33,910 --> 00:52:32,800 before that in terms of who we're linked 1482 00:52:35,910 --> 00:52:33,920 to 1483 00:52:37,829 --> 00:52:35,920 as i say they've isolated neanderthal 1484 00:52:39,589 --> 00:52:37,839 dna in alls 1485 00:52:42,309 --> 00:52:39,599 but then the other species people like 1486 00:52:45,030 --> 00:52:42,319 the denisovians and the eastern species 1487 00:52:46,069 --> 00:52:45,040 of which the two the western uh species 1488 00:52:48,470 --> 00:52:46,079 and these others that they're coming up 1489 00:52:49,589 --> 00:52:48,480 with we don't seem to have that dna in 1490 00:52:52,470 --> 00:52:49,599 us 1491 00:52:54,309 --> 00:52:52,480 and so it seems to be a sort of a on the 1492 00:52:56,549 --> 00:52:54,319 one hand a fairly modern fairly recent 1493 00:52:58,710 --> 00:52:56,559 phenomena that we're here but we must 1494 00:52:59,829 --> 00:52:58,720 have origins so it's it's it's a very 1495 00:53:00,790 --> 00:52:59,839 good question it's a really good 1496 00:53:02,870 --> 00:53:00,800 question 1497 00:53:04,150 --> 00:53:02,880 i just don't think we've we again as i 1498 00:53:06,069 --> 00:53:04,160 said earlier on we just don't have a 1499 00:53:07,829 --> 00:53:06,079 fossil for that it's not something we've 1500 00:53:09,109 --> 00:53:07,839 been able to find yet 1501 00:53:11,030 --> 00:53:09,119 but certainly i think the digs in the 1502 00:53:13,190 --> 00:53:11,040 czech republic that's their ones to 1503 00:53:14,710 --> 00:53:13,200 watch because every so often they come 1504 00:53:16,630 --> 00:53:14,720 out with you know it started off at 1505 00:53:19,510 --> 00:53:16,640 something like 32 000 then it went up to 1506 00:53:21,109 --> 00:53:19,520 38 000 then it went up to 40 000. i 1507 00:53:23,349 --> 00:53:21,119 believe the last oldest remains they've 1508 00:53:25,430 --> 00:53:23,359 got now is 43 000. 1509 00:53:26,470 --> 00:53:25,440 um and the other question as well i 1510 00:53:28,309 --> 00:53:26,480 should have mentioned it earlier because 1511 00:53:30,069 --> 00:53:28,319 it's quite important is if you end up 1512 00:53:31,589 --> 00:53:30,079 with a fossil and there's a lot of 1513 00:53:33,990 --> 00:53:31,599 fossil schools out there there's loads 1514 00:53:35,910 --> 00:53:34,000 of these fossils the problem you've got 1515 00:53:37,910 --> 00:53:35,920 is that it's made of stone 1516 00:53:39,829 --> 00:53:37,920 so you can't carbon date it and you're 1517 00:53:41,510 --> 00:53:39,839 not going to get any dna out of it 1518 00:53:42,470 --> 00:53:41,520 because it's fossilized it's turned into 1519 00:53:43,270 --> 00:53:42,480 a fossil 1520 00:53:44,549 --> 00:53:43,280 so 1521 00:53:46,150 --> 00:53:44,559 it's a question that we're going to have 1522 00:53:47,750 --> 00:53:46,160 a lot of trouble answering to try and 1523 00:53:49,829 --> 00:53:47,760 find out which one of all these 1524 00:53:52,309 --> 00:53:49,839 different things we've got which one 1525 00:53:53,990 --> 00:53:52,319 fits us um so that is actually going to 1526 00:53:56,309 --> 00:53:54,000 be a really difficult question to answer 1527 00:53:58,710 --> 00:53:56,319 a tough nut to crack that one yeah 1528 00:54:00,069 --> 00:53:58,720 here's a here's a question i'd i think 1529 00:54:02,549 --> 00:54:00,079 it's pretty interesting getting back to 1530 00:54:04,470 --> 00:54:02,559 the skulls can we replicate the 1531 00:54:07,190 --> 00:54:04,480 creations method today on a more 1532 00:54:09,750 --> 00:54:07,200 mysterious ones without tool marks now i 1533 00:54:11,910 --> 00:54:09,760 know there's high high pressure water 1534 00:54:14,230 --> 00:54:11,920 that cuts stone perfectly 1535 00:54:16,630 --> 00:54:14,240 and i'm not sure of other other tools if 1536 00:54:18,390 --> 00:54:16,640 we have those uh today to to do 1537 00:54:21,030 --> 00:54:18,400 something like that do you know 1538 00:54:22,790 --> 00:54:21,040 it's a really good question that because 1539 00:54:24,309 --> 00:54:22,800 i'm gonna go back to the mitchell hedgie 1540 00:54:27,349 --> 00:54:24,319 school because the mitchell hedges 1541 00:54:29,990 --> 00:54:27,359 school's unique because the jawbone is 1542 00:54:32,230 --> 00:54:30,000 separate it separates away so 1543 00:54:34,470 --> 00:54:32,240 anatomically it's probably the most 1544 00:54:36,789 --> 00:54:34,480 accurate crystal school we've got 1545 00:54:38,710 --> 00:54:36,799 it's also unique because that's the one 1546 00:54:41,349 --> 00:54:38,720 that really doesn't have any 1547 00:54:42,150 --> 00:54:41,359 manufacturing marks on it this is silver 1548 00:54:44,470 --> 00:54:42,160 here 1549 00:54:46,630 --> 00:54:44,480 that's it that's mitchell hedges 1550 00:54:49,510 --> 00:54:46,640 uh it's it's just a phenomenal piece of 1551 00:54:50,950 --> 00:54:49,520 work uh personally i think if that was 1552 00:54:53,349 --> 00:54:50,960 in the possession of the aztecs and 1553 00:54:54,870 --> 00:54:53,359 mayans if they were using that as a 1554 00:54:57,510 --> 00:54:54,880 religious object 1555 00:55:00,230 --> 00:54:57,520 people could literally sit there 1556 00:55:01,990 --> 00:55:00,240 for hours and hours and hours and hours 1557 00:55:03,349 --> 00:55:02,000 are using all different grades of 1558 00:55:06,630 --> 00:55:03,359 abrasives 1559 00:55:08,630 --> 00:55:06,640 to wear it away to wear it down to 1560 00:55:09,750 --> 00:55:08,640 what we've got now and we know that they 1561 00:55:12,069 --> 00:55:09,760 did that because there's a lot of 1562 00:55:14,549 --> 00:55:12,079 prehistoric tools there's loads of 1563 00:55:15,910 --> 00:55:14,559 marble sculptures and whatnot in egypt 1564 00:55:18,069 --> 00:55:15,920 there's lots of things all over the 1565 00:55:20,470 --> 00:55:18,079 place that have been worn away 1566 00:55:21,510 --> 00:55:20,480 using abrasives to create the finished 1567 00:55:23,270 --> 00:55:21,520 product 1568 00:55:24,950 --> 00:55:23,280 so that's a pretty good idea pretty good 1569 00:55:26,710 --> 00:55:24,960 suggestion that that's probably 1570 00:55:28,630 --> 00:55:26,720 extremely old because it would take 1571 00:55:30,230 --> 00:55:28,640 quite a few generations to get it to 1572 00:55:32,150 --> 00:55:30,240 where it is now 1573 00:55:33,990 --> 00:55:32,160 also handling i mean 1574 00:55:35,750 --> 00:55:34,000 over time handling wears things away 1575 00:55:38,150 --> 00:55:35,760 just the grit and the grease and the 1576 00:55:40,390 --> 00:55:38,160 acid on your fingers yeah so that might 1577 00:55:42,309 --> 00:55:40,400 be the the last final finishing if you 1578 00:55:44,630 --> 00:55:42,319 like on that school is the fact that 1579 00:55:46,710 --> 00:55:44,640 it's been handled so much over time 1580 00:55:48,710 --> 00:55:46,720 um that's the best answer i can give 1581 00:55:50,630 --> 00:55:48,720 really uh i think most of them are 1582 00:55:51,430 --> 00:55:50,640 polished that way 1583 00:55:53,750 --> 00:55:51,440 um 1584 00:55:56,549 --> 00:55:53,760 that one was just really really well 1585 00:55:58,870 --> 00:55:56,559 polished yeah yeah no you do see that 1586 00:56:00,549 --> 00:55:58,880 you know it's like the worry stones you 1587 00:56:01,750 --> 00:56:00,559 know how they wear yeah like that is 1588 00:56:03,510 --> 00:56:01,760 kind of the thing when you're when 1589 00:56:05,109 --> 00:56:03,520 you're handling something yeah that's 1590 00:56:06,710 --> 00:56:05,119 the same thing with what i do in the 1591 00:56:09,030 --> 00:56:06,720 antiques realm a lot of times you'll 1592 00:56:10,710 --> 00:56:09,040 find things that oh you can just tell 1593 00:56:12,390 --> 00:56:10,720 just by you can take a look at it and 1594 00:56:14,630 --> 00:56:12,400 say oh yeah this is a period piece 1595 00:56:17,030 --> 00:56:14,640 because of the handling of it well the 1596 00:56:18,470 --> 00:56:17,040 cutting's down the classic equivalent is 1597 00:56:21,030 --> 00:56:18,480 prehistoric tools because they're made 1598 00:56:22,710 --> 00:56:21,040 from flint flint is silicon based uh as 1599 00:56:25,190 --> 00:56:22,720 an archaeologist when i'm dealing with 1600 00:56:27,510 --> 00:56:25,200 uh weird shaped unusual prehistoric 1601 00:56:29,990 --> 00:56:27,520 flint tools usually they fall into the 1602 00:56:31,829 --> 00:56:30,000 hand exactly in the right way that they 1603 00:56:33,349 --> 00:56:31,839 were used and when you look at where the 1604 00:56:35,349 --> 00:56:33,359 fingers are where the fingers are making 1605 00:56:37,510 --> 00:56:35,359 contact with
