  1.  @reddimus11  why are you all so threatened by someone asking questions? it's honestly bizarre because Hancock has brought more awareness to archeology than anyone else in recent history.

  2. real archeologists are a joke. Flint Dibble couldn't even admit that a rock looked manmade.

  3.  @Rhartman22  there are different types of evidence, though. Graham Hancock provides a lot of evidence that you completely disregard because it's circumstantial, but it still shouldn't be ignored.

  4.  @reddimus11  last time i checked, Graham never wrote a scientific paper on the subject, so i don't see how you're claiming he's trying to say he's pushing theory and myth as fact.

  5.  @psychomikeo123  yet the implication from you all is that normal people cannot talk about things and ask questions unless they have a degree. that's also known as an appeal to authority.

  6.  @poolfrog911  Graham would literally be the first person to admit he was wrong, can archeologists say the same?

  7. please pin your comment!

  8.  @psychomikeo123  he's an author but he doesn't pretend to be a scientist and you shouldn't hold him to a scientific standard.

  9.  @Jason-rp3mk  Hancock has literally done more to get people interested in archeology than anyone else in recent memory.

  10. why believe in something without proof? that's called religion.

  11. If Gobekli Tepe was found in Sub-Saharan Africa, it would 100% be called civilization. anyone saying otherwise is being disingenuous.

  12.  @samuelchampagne-guenette4344  funny how the archeologist who originally excavated GT agreed with Hancock.
    6
  13. kinda funny how the definition of civilization was pretty much set in stone until the discovery of Gobekli Tepe, now y'all are backpeddling and trying to shift those goalposts. what's the problem with admitting you were wrong?

  14. has he ever publicly posted his credentials and diploma?

  15. why are there so many people telling us to reject imagination? it's quite scary, like it's an orchestrated campaign.

  16.  @Rhartman22  polygonal masonry with a similar style that spans the globe from Easter Island, to Giza, to Baalbek, to India, to Angor Wat, to South America. it all perfectly interlocks together so tightly you can't fit a sheet of paper in the joint, and not just at the exterior. in places where the walls have separated due to earthquakes, you can see that the blocks curve three-dimensionally and still perfectly touch the entire depth of the stone. and wherever these walls are found, they're never located on top of another style. and yet supposedly isolated cultures all over the world decided to just stop building walls in this way, and we can't even recreate them today using the known methods of the time.
    4
  17.  @Rhartman22  how would all of these supposedly isolated cultures know it's the best way to build a wall if they never built and tested other styles?
    4
  18.  @Rhartman22  yeah but why wouldn't ALL of these cultures continue to build walls in the older superior style? not one of them anywhere on earth decided to continue building walls in this way, despite all of them supposedly deciding to build walls in this way BECAUSE it was the "superior" method of stone wall construction?

  19.  @spulwasser  if GT was found in Sub-Saharan Africa, archeologists would have no problem calling this "evidence of civilization".

  20.  @rok8031  why would GH include irrelevant information in his own documentary?
    3
  21.  @noahpauley  those aren't his claims though, he merely presents evidence that other cultures allude to.
    3
  22.  @Nattyboi555  stop misrepresenting. GH has always prefaced by saying he doesn't make claims, he just offers another viewpoint.
    3
  23.  @arak5502  so the fuck what? you have the choice to not watch instead of just complain.
    3
  24.  @kerolokerokerolo  prove GH isn't informed. is it because he doesn't have an archeology degree? that's an appeal to authority which is an argument fallacy.
    3
  25.  @wumbel5249  if he claims are baseless, then they shouldn't be a threat, right?
    3
  26.  @Southpaw128  you all are gonna have to try a little harder. too many supposedly unrelated people saying "real archeologist" makes it way too obvious this is orchestrated. have a nice day ;)
    3
  27.  @DanielGT_93  i agree we need to keep an open mind about all of this. clearly the existence of GT upsets a lot of people in the field because they're realizing what they've been taught is based on assumptions and lies.

  28.  @nuffsaid6229  if Gobekli Tepe was found in Sub-Saharan Africa, it wouldnt' even be a debate among archeologists whether it was evidence of a civilization.
    3
  29.  @Rhartman22  wouldn't we see evidence of older stone working techniques at these sites? yet most of the time, the oldest parts are centrally located, with newer construction surrounding this older hub. this is most apparent at Machu Picchu. the large megalithic center is surrounded by structures built with smaller stones loosely stacked like modern day building techniques.
    3
  30. y'all need to get better talking points, and you make it way too obvious that you're colluding together using the same terms like "real archeologist", etc.

  31.  @unit4735  i'm just saying you all are using the same talking points and speech patterns. might wanna get a new supervisor or update your group brainstorming sessions or something.

  32. if he's anything like Flint Dibble, then why should we pay attention to people who merely regurgitate what's already known? science advances by challenging what's already known, not by enforcing it.

  33.  @_MikeJon_  i don't like Bright Insight. totally different category than the others.

  34.  @joeymedina7115  where else on earth are hundreds of 20+ ton stone monuments being constructed and carved by hunter/gatherers?
    2
  35.  @joeymedina7115  why can't you answer my question though? it's a legitimate point that no one seems capable of answering. "oh that's just what hunter gatherers do"...okay, where? please point to a current group of hunter gatherers making something similar to GT.

  36. If Gobekli Tepe was found in Sub-Saharan Africa, it would be called civilization and everyone knows it. Don't try to tell me otherwise.
    2
  37. it's quite telling when so many people believe a "conspiracy theorist" more than the actual "experts" isn't it? you all believe in consensus of opinion dictating reality, well, how's that logic taste?
    2
  38.  @robertmckinney1898  who are you to say it can't be proven? what are your credentials?
    2
  39. how dare you try to tell a channel how to operate.

  40. who cares about respect in the scientific community? people literally refused to look through Galileo's telescope because they were afraid of what they would see, lol.
    2
  41.  @Nigochen  "more than likely" isn't science.
    2
  42. If Gobekli Tepe was found in Sub-Saharan Africa, nobody would deny it was evidence of a civilization.
    2
  43.  @ErraticAim  that's an appeal to authority fallacy.
    2
  44.  @Nattyboi555  you honestly don't think Flint was cherry-picking what he considered "evidence"? i mean he couldn't even concede that a plow shaped rock could have been manmade. nope, it was 100% not possible according to Flint. how is that not cherry picking?
    2
  45.  @wumbel5249  drawing inferences is not the same as making a claim.
    2
  46.  @Nigochen  all he's saying is to keep an open mind, yet the point falls on deaf eyes and ears, apparently.
    2
  47.  @Nigochen  who are you to say who shouldn't be popular?
    2
  48.  @Southpaw128  yeah and he agreed with Graham. i was talking about modern archeologists.
    2
  49.  @Rhartman22  i never said it was defining evidence, but it definitely points toward more investigation and data needed to conclusively rule out the correlations and similarities across supposedly isolated ancient cultures.
    2
  50.  @Rhartman22  nobody claimed it was direct evidence though, merely that the overwhelming circumstantial evidence warrants further investigation.
