New Video! Megalithic Mysteries of Peru and Bolivia: Peru’s Mystery Cave…
I investigate the evidence for ancient high technology in a small and mysterious cave, in the Sacred Valley of Peru, named Naupa Huaca.
This cave is likely the result of multiple civilizations, it’s a canvas to explore the many contradictions and unknowns in the story of history in this region, and to look into the symbolic nature of the architecture that the sacred valley is so famous for.
I’ll get back to this post with transcripts at some point. Right now I need a break!
UnchartedX on the airwaves! I’m a guest on ‘The Other Side of Midnight’ tonight…
I was surprised, yet delighted to be asked to appear as a guest on an episode of ‘The Other Side of Midnight,’ talk radio show, presented by Richard C Hoagland, this evening the 26th of May, 2019.

Hopefully I don’t cram BOTH my feet into my mouth at the same time… but I am looking forward to discussing one of my favorite topics with the excellent hosts, The enigmatic Serapeum of Saqqara.
New Video: Where did the Serapeum get it’s name?
A brief addendum to my Serapeum Series, I take a look at where the magnificent Serapeum of Saqqara gets it’s name from, and how it’s name influences people when it comes to the site’s function.
Ancient Engineering on the Giza Plateau – REDUX with subs and additions
This is a repost of a video I published a while back. I added subtitles, some effects to highlight the areas we’re talking about, and changed some of the footage (and music, which was driving the need to do this….)
The original version is still available (as an unlisted video) via it’s old post below. Cheers!
An introduction to UnchartedX: the case for re-writing history.
New video! I wanted to provide an introduction video for my channel, in particular for people that are new to the whole debate around the roots of our history. To explain the premise behind much of my other work, and to try and briefly (!) make the case for re-writing history.
Full Transcript available here
Ancient Engineering at the Temple of Bastet
New video! A quick look at a lesser visited Old Kingdom site, the Temple of Bastet, located some 80 kms from Cairo. Tel Basta has some astonishing pieces of what is clearly high technology, precision objects, and a number of machining marks spread across the ruins of a once mighty structure. The granite graveyard that remains has yet to give up all it’s secrets!
New Video: Chapter 5 in the Serapuem Series, Conclusions!
Whew.
that has been a long several days of editing! After all the conceptual work is done, the writing and recording is done, the editing can really chafe you, so I’m learning.
But I finally managed to wrap up my Serapeum series, with this, the final episode, taking a hard look at the evidence for renovation on the site, examining some of the contradictions in the othodox story.
In previous episodes, I’ve been promising conclusions and that I would tell you what I really think about the history of this site – and so I do, and it extends to much of ancient Egypt.
So much for shorter content! 🙂
New Younger Dryas Cosmic Impact Paper! Podcast #2
Podcast #2. I do an in-depth review of a new Younger Dryas Cosmic Impact paper that investigates the effects of the Younger Dryas in the Southern Hemisphere.
Serapeum Series, Chapter 4: Evidence for Liquid Polishing…
Chapter 4 of my Serapeum Series, likely the penultimate edition. To quote from the introduction:
The 24 giant, single piece granite boxes that are housed in the underground alcoves and tunnels of the ancient Serapeum of Saqqara are anything but simple objects. Some of them weight up to 100 tons, and Almost every aspect of their quarrying, their transport and their construction boggles the mind when you really begin to consider what’s involved. The level of planning, effort, skill and technology required to both manufacture the boxes themselves, and to move them to where they have rested, from antiquity until today, is hard to overstate.
This video is chapter 4 of my Serapeum investigation, where we’ll examine some of the best evidence that a form of ancient high technology was used to create these boxes, in particular a technology used to finish them to a smooth, mirror like surface that still reflects light, even after many thousands of years, and a technology that seems unknown to our own advanced modern civilization of today.
