Pillars of the Past: Mapping Ancient Mysteries
Exploring Peru’s Hidden History: A Journey with Pillars of the Past
Hey, guys! We had an epic chat with Raul from the Pillars of the Past. This dude has done some amazing mapping and boots on the ground work in Peru, uncovering forgotten ruins and ancient mysteries with a GPS, a passion for history, and a serious sense of adventure. From finding seashells at Machu Picchu as a kid to discovering undocumented sites in the Peruvian Andes, Raul's stories will have you itching to grab a shovel and go full Indiana Jones.
What really stuck out was his take on mainstream archaeology. Raul's all about following the evidence, even when it contradicts the textbook timelines. He’s mapped out sites the Peruvian government hasn't even touched yet and discovered what might be the oldest stone monolithic calendar in the Americas. We also dove into the mystery of the Khipus — ancient knotted strings that might hold a lost writing system if AI can ever crack the code.
This episode is a wild mix of ancient aliens-level mysteries, actual science, and a whole lot of “wait, what?” moments. So if you’re into ancient civilizations, conspiracy mode theories, or just love a good adventure, you don’t want to miss this one. Check it out, and let's get Raul the support he needs to uncover even more mind-blowing secrets hidden beneath the sands of Peru!
