History Has a Blindspot and It’s 100,000 Years Wide

Описание: What if we’re not the first?

Modern civilization feels like the apex of human history—but anatomically modern humans have been around for at least 200,000 years. And if it only takes 3,000 to 4,000 years to go from primitive tools to organized cities… what were we doing with the other 196,000?

This video dives into one of the most unsettling possibilities in archaeology and anthropology: that other civilizations may have risen—and vanished—long before the ones we know. From the silence of the fossil record to the buried ruins revealed by LiDAR, from the Toba supereruption to forgotten coastlines drowned by rising seas, the evidence doesn’t point to a clear beginning… it points to missed beginnings.

Join us as we explore:

Why civilization can appear quickly—and disappear even faster

The fragile traces that deep time leaves behind

What LiDAR and satellite imaging are revealing beneath jungles and deserts

How climate disasters like Toba and 536 CE reset cultural memory

And what might remain of us if we disappeared tomorrow

This isn’t speculation about aliens or lost technologies—it’s a grounded look at how time, geology, and catastrophe may have hidden entire human stories.

Who did we miss?

Let’s find out.
