À propos de cet audio
Lex interviews Ed Barnhart, an archaeologist specializing in ancient civilizations of the Americas. The conversation covers the origins of civilization in the Americas, with a focus on the Maya, Aztec, and Inca civilizations. Barnhart discusses their unique cultural and religious practices, including their relationship with astronomy, mathematics, and spirituality. The interview also explores the possibility of lost civilizations in the Amazon and the role of hallucinogenic plants in shaping ancient societies. Barnhart delves into the debate surrounding the work of Graham Hancock, who argues for the existence of a single, lost civilization that seeded others around the world. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing the achievements of these ancient cultures as a testament to human ingenuity and the need for a more nuanced understanding of their historical context.
