Ep. 1 - Cassie Coppersmith - Egypt, Peru and Cambodia Are the Ruins of One Lost Global Civilization

This is the first episode of the Lost Civilizations Podcast. Matthew LaCroix sits down with @CassieCoppersmith (studio.youtube.com/channel/UC9W1itLPgmof9sSW7y…) to lay out the evidence that the accepted 6,500 year timeline of civilization is not the beginning of the story. Both of them have stood on these stones.In this episode:- The lathe-cut pillars in India that archaeologists admit are lathe-cut, then attribute to animal power- Why a geologist needed five minutes at the Sphinx to see what the archaeologists missed for decades- The two signatures, and the question nobody answers: would a civilization start with perfect stonework and then move to mud brick?- The underwater ruins in Lake Van, discovered in 2017, the deepest confirmed megalithic ruins on Earth, and why the experts had no idea where to put them- The Eridu Genesis tablet in the Penn Museum and the flood story of Ziusudra- A 150-ton granite box in a chamber whose entrance is too small for it- Gobekli Tepe, Sacsayhuaman, Puma Punku, Easter Island, Hampi, Angkor, Ayanis- Why the sites were built where they were builtMatt has spent two and a half years on a funded expedition with a team of archaeologists and geologist Robert Schoch, filmed in seven countries, centred on the Lake Van region of eastern Turkey. Cassie left a career in gold mining to walk the sites herself, from Egypt to Peru to Malta, and now hosts Secrets in Stone.@CassieCoppersmith (studio.youtube.com/channel/UC9W1itLPgmof9sSW7y…) Secrets in Stone: youtube.com/@CassieCoppersmith/videosChapters0… Introduction to the mysteries of ancient civilizations00:14 Introduction to Ancient Mysteries and Modern Discoveries01:58 Evidence of ancient machining and out-of-place artifacts02:29 The Signature Signatures Found in Stonework Worldwide03:54 The purpose and signatures of ancient stonework04:53 Heat and Shaping Techniques in Ancient Construction05:52 The challenge to mainstream archaeological timelines08:03 Interdisciplinary approaches to uncovering lost history08:31 The Significance of Mineral Composition in Stonework09:49 The significance of sacred sites and their placement12:13 The impact of scientific silos on archaeological understanding12:33 The Enigma of the Serapium and Massive Granite Blocks14:02 Case studies: Puma Punku, Gobekli Tepe, and the Sphinx15:47 Connections Between Cultures Through Stone Signatures16:13 The deeper knowledge systems of ancient cultures17:57 The importance of open-minded exploration in archaeology20:03 The future of uncovering our true ancient history20:15 Underwater Ruins and the Lake Vaughan Discoveries24:53 Technologies Uncovering Hidden Ancient Sites29:50 The Dating of Ancient Artifacts and Its Challenges35:21 The Future of Archaeology and Human History40:11 Philosophical Reflections on Our Lost Past
