Why don't you continue with your schedule? I mean people wouldn't mind (They shouldn't) old/recycled footage. I mostly listen your videos, I guess many people do that. If you still insist on a new project, I think ancient mesopotamia is always an interesting object ( I really liked Jericho video, sea scroll was pretty good, too. ). Even in podcasts, you can find so many ancient greece, not that much for mesopotamia. Egypt might entice people's interest as well.

I would dig deeper into the pharmacy and fertility of the Jaguar city all the while metal detecting for the Chief's golden hoards and gardens. Did you not see the enlarged sex organ on the mysterious pot figure?? Where were the prime cocoa growing plots and pleasure palaces of exotic redwood?? And what was their enlarged style of construction? How many specie of monkey live there and what are their habits vis a vis the jaguar and settlements?? After that I would be exploring Crete and Kalista for fields and settlements needing excavation and seeking the Minoan's large arteries of transportation with an eye to the presence of the earliest chariots in common usage around the Mediterranean. Will you find the Chariots of Atlantis for patroling the coasts and quickening shipments into the interior at Knossos? Lastly I would be attempting to reconstuct the island of Santorini/Atlantis before the great eruption with attention to the height and shape of the volcano of ancient birth that had been developing far and wide for thousands of years before the tragic eruption. Was it the Killimanjaro of the sea? We must find out.

In 1987 I actually tried to find La Ciudad Blanca by taking a boat from Trujillo, Honduras to the Miskito Coast. I figured that "lost city" lay somewhere near the head waters of the Rio Platano and the Rio Paulaya. I was shipwrecked but saved by the Miskito Indians who lived in the village of Platano. I continued along the coastline to Brus Laguna, and then on to Puerto Lempira. I never got near where I thought that "lost city" was, but it was an excellent adventure. I tried again in 1997, traveling to the Rio Sico to get to Dulce Nombre de Culmi. I managed to get to some gold mines and stayed in the jungle in a tiny village with the miners. They wanted me to return the very next year with lots of guns and a few aluminum canoes so that we could explore the region down the Rio Sico and look for that Monkey God. I declined, but sometimes wish I had not. Fun times!

That's great, the history may not be lost though bro, In ancient Indian Vedic/Hindu Sanskrit text, A Monkey God called Lord Hanuman travelled to the land and a historical event occurred and was documented in Ancient Sanskrit text. Story of how Lord Hanuman(the monkey God) went to the land and defeated a demon adorning good over evil.. one of the stone statues found there identically depicts the Hindu/Vedic Lord Hanuman(monkey God). Maybe you can look into it further to find out more pleasing stuff about your history. These texts mentioned are thousands of years old too.

What do you think the Black Plague was ? .Most South American indians died Because they had no immunity to European disease .Europe went thru the same thing Black Plague when their population had no Immunity to far East mid East diseases. Mexico and South America Had Human Sacrafice On a Grand Scale . Missionaries wrote about Decapitated heads hanging on Walls 130,000.! They Just found Proof of these Massive Slaughter of victims In Mexico. 2015 Some conquistadors wrote about the tzompantli and its towers, estimating that the rack alone contained 130,000 skulls. But historians and archaeologists knew the conquistadors were prone to exaggerating the horrors of human sacrifice to demonize the Mexica culture. As the centuries passed, scholars began to wonder whether the tzompantli had ever existed. Archaeologists at the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) here can now say with certainty that it did. Beginning in 2015, they discovered and excavated the remains of the skull rack and one of the towers underneath a colonial period house on the street that runs behind Mexico City's cathedral. (The other tower, they suspect, lies under the cathedral's back courtyard.) The scale of the rack and tower suggests they held thousands of skulls, testimony to an industry of human sacrifice unlike any other in the world .www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/06/feeding-gods-hundreds-skulls-reveal-massive-scale-human-sacrifice-aztec-capital

Jaguars are indeed seen as powerful spiritual animals, the jaguar is known as the eater of souls which sounds terrible but actually means it is a healing animal, eats a persons soul, heals it and returns it to the person. I knew a Central American shaman, Martin Prechel, several years ago and he told me how his teacher told him he needed a totem of a living jaguar. So he went off into the jungle and was sat leaning against a tree with his eyes closed meditating, he opened his eyes and a living jaguar was inches from his face. Bear in mind each year jaguars kill people, he lifted his hand and plucked a whisker from the jaguars face. The jaguar turned, urinated on him then walked away.

Big Al' I don't know if you'll see this after so long. But I have to say a pretty big history nerd and I don't really consider the Aztec to be a great civilization. There are key things about the Aztec that are ignored because of fantasy and that is that they didn't really build their own civilization. Before they were called Aztec they were simply called war dogs. They were largely a nomadic warring tribe that literally made everyone's life miserable. We find through records that they through constant warring managed to push out the native tribe's that built these cities and took them over. They pushed them down into South America where they integrated in with their cousins but they never forgot what the Aztec did to them. These records were passed down through oral histories and codex that have been translated, as well as what the conquistadors found out while there. So in the end I just can't appreciate the Aztec as a great civilization because on their own merits they didn't build they only destroyed.

So True, though the culture and history has been lost to the area only not entirely... This is an ancient Indian civilization.. reference to the monkey god is an Indian Hindu/Vedic religious God called Lord Hanuman.. texts documented in ancient Indian texts called Sanskrit will give you all the answers. This area was said to be the land where a demon dwelled and ruled. An epic battle/incident occurred thousands of years ago where Lord Hanuman (monkey god) defeated the demon King and good adorned over evil in a short summary. Involves great warriors, saint's,sages and wisdom.

Great series! Thank you for sharing.

Thx again for a great job. I can’t stop watching your videos.

Many of the indigenous people in the Amazon basin used a technique called 'slash and char' to create areas for agriculture. The soil they created is called Terra Preta and has the benefit of holding nutrients within the soil instead of leaching out. But today, slash and burn means the land is suitable for a short time for agriculture.

Another great documentary man! We are spoiled with this hour and fifteen minute runtime:) I have been eagerly awaiting this since its announcement a couple days ago. I hope you are safe and if you are looking for ideas, I would love to see a doc on Uruk and the first cities in Mesopotamia. Regardless I can't wait for the next one:)

Devananda das Hardly. No (even circumstantial) evidence Hanuman was worshiped by the indus valley civilisation. Their connection to vedic religion is little more than speculation at this point, but not unlikely. A connection to Hanuman specifically though is just not there at all! On the other side of the earth we have Honduras and a monkey god in a culture that cannot have had any connection to the vedic religions at all! The last time anyone there could have had contact with an ancestor of the indus valley people is over 10.000 years before the indus valley civilisation began (and that’s pushing it), and then we have to add another 4-5.000 years before this monkey god appears! Besides the fact that both look like monkeys there’s literally no connection between the two.

I read Lincoln Child's book about the land of the monkey god(can't remember the correct name because I read it when it first came out). It was about finding the area and exploration into it. Trying to find it, getting in to it as well as trying to set up camps to live and work in was extraordinarily harsh! In the end,it was a disease or really bad virus that made them leave. Most of them ended up in hospital really sick. I loved this documentary because it filled in allot of things that I didn't read about. I thoroughly enjoyed it and thank you for bringing this to us.

Amazing quality, well done. It is sad to see the destruction and deforestation. I hope it can be preserved.

When I was a boy in the late 1950's and early 1960's, there in the cool and quiet rooms of the local Carnegie library were glass cabinets and glass topped display tables holding dozens of pre-columbian figurines, so housed to be visible from any angle. They were mementos of trips to Mexico, Central America, and the bluffs of the nearby Mississippi River. I think they were brought back by one of the librarians, but then again there were patrons of culture who supported that library. How I wish I had paid more attention to those objects. Today, no such unguarded display could be put out, nor could those objects be even legally acquired. They were in my boyhood time a center of controversy, being proof of human culture existing before the arrival of the pioneers and extinguishment of the "red race" and conveniently the Indians' claims upon the land. But at that time those controversies were over and above my concerns and only of note for their intrusion into my endeavors, an unwelcome annoyance from the world of adults.
