Why People Never Heard of this Ancient City Older than Pompeii

Описание: Thousands of people lived here. Thousands of homes were left behind. But when the ash was cleared... there wasn't a single skeleton. In 1967, archaeologists discovered Akrotiri—a Bronze Age metropolis on the island of Thera (Santorini) that was more advanced than almost anything that followed for two thousand years. It had running water, three-story skyscrapers, and priceless art. But unlike Pompeii, which is famous for the victims frozen in volcanic ash, Akrotiri is a city of ghosts.
Most historians call it a "successful evacuation." In today’s episode, we look at the evidence that suggests a much darker reality.
In this video, we exhume the truth behind:
The "Vertical Death": Why the citizens moved their furniture into the streets instead of fleeing.
The Harbor Trap: How the geography of Thera turned a rescue mission into a mass execution.
The 700-Foot Executioner: The terrifying physics of a mega-tsunami that erased an entire civilization’s bones from the fossil record.
The Pyroclastic Surge: How 1,300°F gas turned the survivors into ash in seconds.
Akrotiri isn't just an archaeological site; it’s a crime scene that shouldn’t exist.
