I’m going to share a new possible explanation to the mysterious ‘cocaine mummies’ of ancient Egypt:
📍Years ago, scientists were mystified when they discovered traces of Cocaine & Nicotine in Egyptian mummies, as both these substances originate from plants in the Americas.
📍This led many to speculate that this was evidence of transoceanic sea-travel and cross-cultural contact, which was not thought to be possible in ancient times.
📍However, it was later speculated that the traces of cocaine & nicotine could simply be cross-contamination from ‘doped-up’ Archaeologists using these substances.
📍Here’s my idea 💡
We now know that the Sahara was a lush green tropical oasis as recently as ~4,500yrs ago.
We also know that Africa and South America were once connected.
Is it possible that the Tobacco & Coca plants also existed in the Green Sahara?
The last connection of identical plant life from the time when these Continents were physically connected long ago?🪴
The Sahara then turned into a baron Desert, ending these species of plants from the African Continent.
An interesting possibility to consider…
📍 Look closely at all that dirt/rubble.
30 YEARS of “digging”, and THIS is all to show for it? You’re telling me they couldn’t have removed even just a little bit more?
At 12,000 yrs, this is the world’s oldest and most mysterious ancient site. Yet, there is absolutely no sense of urgency to uncover what lays buried, waiting to be discovered.
Meanwhile, Archaeologists are busy sitting on the couch…complaining over the internet about what I’ve exposed…yet none of them are actively digging up this site today, as they should be…
Can someone remind me of what Archaeologists actually do for a living?
The timing of my trip to Gobekli Tepe could not have been better
I was there to witness the last stage of the removal of 1,000 trees 🌳
What are the odds?
BREAKING: Authorities in Turkey have begun the process of removing and relocating 1,000 Trees 🌳 at Gobekli Tepe!
The Tree roots were destroying Ancient ruins below, AND, were preventing further excavation!
My videos on this generated tremendous controversy, which was clearly heard by the right people. This is a BIG Win!!! 🙌🏻
