My favorite is the Tomb of Alexander the Great. We know it should be under the city of Alexandria, Egypt, but it's been lost for ages since an earthquake devastated the city.

Nice to see mr terry teach us some of his immense knowledge
Need some more originals. Gives me thoughts about things that don't come to mind often, or not as often as war history etc.
Very interesting video! I've been lucky enough to visit Rapa Nui, as it is a part of Chile, where I live. Incredible experience! Glad it got a shoutout here. Keep up the great work!
I’m liking these original videos, along with your reactions. Sweet to learn from you
I really enjoy your original content. Waiting for a VTH reaction to it 😂

As a southern ohioan, I'm super happy that Mr Terry talked about the great serpent mound. While I've unfortunately never visited the great serpent mound, I did get to visit mound city way back in 01/02 when I was in 6th grade. It was really cool.
Got my tin foil hat, my coffee, and my alien proof underwear, let's gooooooo!
you should do more of these. They're great.
We know exactly how they were built and when they were built on Easter island. The builder even left their tools behind
As a Pole I'm naturally more interested in mysteries of Poland and other Slavs, like Golden Train or Amber Room. I'm pretty sure we'll find them on one of our junkyards as it's possible to find everything there.

You Poles need to learn up on World History and not just your own....
I've always been fascinated by the Antikythera mechanism. And by a lesser extent also by the Shroud of Turin there given its religious implications and carbon-dating results.

I definitely wish they did better when it comes to views, but it helps to know that some people do appreciate them. Thank you!
Alexander's tomb, Stonehenge, Hannibal's Alps crossing route, Cava de Viriato (Located in Viseu, Portugal. Seems like a pre historical fortification in a several km wide octagon) that potentially had a church in the middle ages and in 1910 a statue in tribute to Viriathus was built there
This original video type seems cool, you should keep that up!
I know this would be an EXTREMELY niche and possibly controversial thing to do. But I'd love for you to listen through and maybe review the album "A Glorious Burden" by Iced Earth. It's an album by a metal band that covers a wide variety of historical events and people (9/11, Navy Seals, Red Baron, Napoleon, etc) The creator and lead vocalist of the band Jon Schaefer who is notorious for being the blue jacket civilian that was involved in the Jan 6th capital riot. Again IDK if it is something you'd be interested in doing, but the music is amazing and it would be cool to see you look over the lyrics and see how accurate it is and if you even like the music 😂
I am a historical mystery.
Loved Guatavita, it is gorgeous
Here from VTH's reaction. Keep up the good content Mr. Terry
I've always considered El Dorado simply being a case of the natives trolling the Spanish to getting themselves killed on a wild goose chase.

Indeed. Something that many people forget is that humor isn't just an "advanced culture" thing. Take a look at all of the various trickster stories from the various tribes, if you need proof. Some of this stuff goes way back into tribal history. And some of it is just to have something to laugh at. Not all stories have a moral. Long before the invention of film and television, our ancestors were telling tales of things you might see playing out on Loony Tunes.
The Voynich Manuscript is a fun one although there may be theories that are assuming it's 'solved' by now.
Serpent Mounds, Easter Island etc are all well explained
Ive seen snake mound. Its pretty cool!
Nice video!
Let's go to our old friend, the History Channel at 2am in the morning. Aliens are the only explanation.
We need a second channel of mister tarry just teaching i would pay good money for that
1:15 The stones look more like some tribe happened upon a battlefield and buried them erecting stones in a proto gravestone way.
Awesome
I was in Rapa Nui some years back. The story of how it all got lost is tragic. It involves colonialism, piracy, slave trade and viral infections. As for El Dorado, we do have in Chile a local variant of the legend with a diferent origin and twist. With two narrative versions. One which binds it to the Inca and one which binds it to the Spanyards themselves. According to the first of these versions, a man called Francisco Cesar, working in one of the expeditions of Sebastian Cabot, went out to search the Sierra de la Plata (silver range), which might be a name for the Potosí mines in Bolivia. The idea what that the area of what now is Buenos Aires served as a natural entry point and trade route for silver that was mined somewhere in the center of South America. Hint of the origin of the name of the Rio de la Plata and the very name of Argentina. He did so because he was informed of the entry into this big stuary to the south by natives in Brazil, being convinced by the silver trinkets that some stranded spanyards showed him from a prior expedition in the early 1500s into the Inca Empire (though with another name and twenty years before it's formal contact with Francisco Pizarro). Cabot established a fort in the Paraguay river and Cesar went forward to find this mountain(s) of silver. It seems in these expeditions the idea of a great monarch with many riches was established, and although Cabot's expedition failed, the idea of a fantastic city somewhere in the Rio de la Plata basin took hold. The city was therefore named "de los Césares" and was believed to be somewhere in Eastern Bolivia. a variation of this version comes from an account by Cesar himself, who claims that he went to the Andes, was greeted by some local governor with many precious metal objects, and returned to find Cabot's fortress burnt. He then went to back to the Andes and got news of Pizarro's war with the Inca, which he later joined. This would place it somewhere in northern Argentina, though the timing doesn't fit several details of the account. More recent analyses of this version imply that Cesar might have come into contact with Diaguita groups living in the highlands of current Cordoba, who had a strong Inca influence. This leads to a general idea of riches located in the eastern central andres and being used to lure the spanyards around. It might have all been an Inca counter intelligence strategy. Arguably, the conquest of Chile by Almagro and Valdivia, enticed by tales of riches and abundance by the conquered Quechua people in Perú, follows a similar pattern of natives telling the conquistadors to move on for more riches. Following with Almagro, in 1533 an account given to one Blas Ponce says that several natives took shelter in a rich valley full of gold and silver somewhere in the Argentine Andes after Almagro commited a massacre. This would place the city in northwestern Argentina. One account says that subjects of the Inca in central-south Chile, after hearing news of the capture of the emperor, decided to flee into the mountains, founding a settlement to be named "Caesars on the Northern Sea", not sure what that would mean. The other narrative version places the city somewhere in Patagonia. It was, after all, a misterious land for much longer. This one, however, talks of a city founded by spanyards, not natives. On one account, A failed Conquistador named Simón de Alcazaba was granted permission to conquer lands south of the already assigned conquests (of Pizarro, Almagro and Mendoza). After many years of convincing investors, he managed to create a small fleet and set sail for the Patagonian region in 1534. Upon entering the Magellan Strait in january 1535 (summer). He failed to cross the strait into the Pacific and so founded a small settlement on the Atlantic, from which he attempted to reach the Pacific by land. Expeditions were sent and once more, the natives always seemed to push the conquistadors forward. But the nature of the land turned on them and the group decided they would starve or freeze before reaching the other side. Upon return they murdered de Alcazaba and started a mutiny. Finally, a captain managed to put order and court martialed the mutineers before heading back to Spain, many being executed, a few being left on land to starve as the expedition left, and others fleeing to avoid their sentences. These scattered groups are the basis for the first legend of a city in the Patagonia. Another account talks of the fleet of the Bishop of Palencia, which entered the Maguellan Strait in 1540. Upon entry, the flagship was run aground and the crew of 150 men was left stranded on the continental (northern) shore, led by captain Francisco de la Rivera and provided with ample supplies and weapons, enough to found a colony. Another ship tried to rescue them but the winds blew them south, ending up in a bay in the Tierra del Fuego Island for months, and other ships either crossed into the Pacific or were entirely lost. Eleven years later, conquistador Francisco de Villagra winters at Cuyo (current Mendoza) and hears about the City of the Césares (the inca-city version). He sent expeditions to the south to search for it. They failed to report anything, but did notice rumors of vagabond castillians in the Patagonia. At the same time, Gerónimo de Alderete, of the Valdivia expedition in Chile, hears a similar tale in his crossing through the Andes. Valdivia sends Villagra in search of these men. While they were not found, rumours about these vagabonds were still abound amongst the nomadic locals. That until 1563, when two men called de Oviedo and Cobos appeared in Southern Chile before Spanish authorities, claiming to have survived the shipwrecks (though the nature of the wrecks is a source of dispute between accounts). According to them, the survivors were led by a man called de Argüello and headed inland, where they founded a colony on the shores of a lake. There they managed to defeat first and befriend later the local natives, who then they aided on their war against another settlment placed north, which were described by de Oviedo and Cobos as Incan. (thus mixing the spanish colony narrative and the inca city narrative for good). Both men entered into a dispute with de Argüello and fled north. In an alternative account of one man called Ybaceta, a ship bound for the Molucas in the Pacific crossed path with one of the returning ships of the Palencia fleet, and was informed of survivors who had established themselves inland after a muteenee during a foraging mision. These bandits were, according to the natives, hostile, and often raided for supplies and women. Ybaceta returned to the place a year later and was informed by the locals that the bandits had enslaved their kin and forced them to mine abundant gold and silver, using dogs to keep watch. I would say both El Dorado and the city of the Caesars talk a lot more about the Spaniards than of the natives. In my opinion the narrative of an inca city of gold was a construction by the Quechua people in order to scatter and cause disarray for the Spaniards. They might have anchored it in the Muiscan tradition for inspiration and to add some weight. The city of the Caesars narrative feels like this story of the constant struggles that the spanish conquest suffered south the Inca Empire, and it feels like a good description of the interests of the Spaniards in those lands. Rather than gold and riches, they all seemed to want to be rulers of their own lands (like de Alcázar), and therefore a non-sanctioned settlement in the Patagonia feels like a feasable story amongst the tired and disorganized conquistadors.
Actually a good video
The purpose of their existence is to keep us guessing why they exist!
I think the maori and the french stones might have just been ye olde gravestones. Snake in Ohio = a calendar of some kind. The nazca is dedicated graffiti (kidding). And el Dorado because shiny things are nice, idk

The legitimacy of the Xia dynasty. We have records of them existing from 100BC, but we don't have any archeological records from the time they are said to have existed. But the Shang where pretty advanced, so it is unlikely that they didn't have some kind of precursor civilization.
