    This video is retar*** or politicaly correct mentally challenged. The corners of the pyramid aren’t perfectly square because there are 8 sides. They also keep using term theoretical a lot while referring to palms and fingers as the go to for accurate angles. We truly live in a clown world. How anyone watches this video and agrees confirms how clueless and ignorant people are these days. Just agree with whatever your school books says kids. People like Randal come with hard facts. People like this come with no research they have done themselves. CLOWNS!

    I enjoy your videos, very much; they combine the best aspects of documentaries produced by film production companies (proffesional quality photography and sound) and the casualness of home movies, all the while being interesting and informative. There is something about which I am curious; I will state, up front, that I ask this, not to start a RUclips comments brawl. I have noticed a shift in the pronounciation of the word "agora," in the past few years and was wondering where the change comes from; these shifts are a part of language progression, which is why we do not speak like Goeffrey Chaucer today. This was even the basis for a song in a classic movie, Ginger Rogers\ Fred Astaire's "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off!" ("You Say tomato...") So, can you enlighten me as to the shift; new scholarship in linguistics or an influencial scholar, such as yourself or Dr. Bettany Hughes using the pronounciation. Thank you for this video and I look forward to your future videos.😊

    Thanks Dr. And thanks, "MyHeritage", I like that, I'll definitely look into that. - Yes, that's not Phoenician. I know Phoenician. I guess back then it would fool people. And ouch, now people would do a more convincing job. I'm still lost trying to find clues in ancient Nubian script. So similar to Egyptian and other Semitic scripts of that era, but indecipherable. Maybe AI will steal our human thunder and solve it for us. Though is science science if we don't solve the puzzles? :/ - You may think I'm just using 20-20 hindsight, but that Darius pottery script didn't look correct either. Both have the characters spaced oddly too far apart. Don't discount this. Every script I've seen, or the majority seem squished together. Always they are running out of room or didn't think through how much space they had per number of characters. I've seen (in newer script) where a B and W are so close you think it's an M character. Or the K character with W making an M character.

    You are mostly very right . Especially at the point that "what you do now counts , not your long past ancestors" . Of course you stated too many things and some may be arguable . But I will stay at one point that I think you overlooked . It's about cherry picking . One can cherry pick pieces to his interest and present a false interpretation of facts . But one can also "cherry" let out pieces so it will be again false .

    @world of antiquity. Can you please let us know how long have you lived in India, How many Indian languages you know, and whether you are conversant with customs and traditions including cuisine and food habits? Have you made a systematic study of ancient Indian shastras on language, literature, astronomy, medicine, mathematics, etc? If you have made this video without having a deeper understanding of all factors stated above, then whatever you said in the video does not hold good and it's just superficially covering your intentions which of course you are not explicit. No Indian needs extensive research papers done by so-called scholars on India who are not native to understand our Indian heritage. Everyone knows that in India the education imparted in the existing system for the past 150 years was designed by the British and its sole purpose was to subjugate Indians. Just imagine how many generations have been brainwashed with this systematic plan of Westerners. Now you ask us to counter or challenge any argument stated in the video rather than the questioning video creator's understanding of India. So we may get lost in the quagmire of research papers looking into microscopic detail forgetting the intra-disciplinary approach. You start the video by acknowledging the contribution of Indians in the fields of Sciences of astronomy, math, medicine, and so on then you start confusing us with different in migration and out-migration theories of the Indian subcontinent diluting the underlying factor of continuity of Indian civilization. You start talking about the Caste system which of course is an alien concept and is used in Government parlance and for Political mileage to compromise the unity and integrity of India.

      Why are you asking about me? You should be asking the scientists who wrote all these papers. They are linked below the video. You can ask them. I think it is silly to think that simply living somewhere gives you knowledge. Do do you think that by standing on the land, knowledge will enter through your feet and go up to your brain? Or maybe in your country they have time machines. Here in America, we don't have time machines. Americans only know about American history if they learn it in school, and most of them don't pay attention or remember.

    Mechanisms like this do not just appear overnight. There must have been a gradual learning process in the creation of the materials, the tools and the function before this mechanism was actually built. For example, when the automobile was first invented, it took over 100 years to get from a Model T to where we are today, so it is logical that there was probably a century or 2 of mechanisms being built and refined before this one was built.

    Enjoyed watching your video. Plenty of valid points. Archaeology isn't just one big club, resistant to change. I've spent many hours watching Graham Hancock vids. Bottom line for me is that these vids are interesting. I'm not emotionally invested either way. Like with 'Ancient Aliens'. It's great entertainment. Having said that, it seems pretty obvious to me that the ancient America's were filled by multiple pathways of migration. Not just thru Alaska. But then, who cares. It doesn't change my life.

He had a case of Behind the Monitor bravery when I asked him a question and he told me if I wanted the answer to that come here and find that answer yourself. I was here 3 months later, and I haven't seen him yet. If you want to meet him face to face, I guess you have to pay for one of his tours....
