Disregarding the time reference for now, the Easter Islanders are Polynesian, and their presence on the island seems pretty recent - much too recent for an origin that far back in time (like, 1000 years ago give or take). Hancock covers this in season 2, speculating that the island was inhabited by others prior to the Polynesians settling there. So the Easter Islanders' ancestors came from SE Asia, and maybe ultimately Sundaland (the now "sunken" land mass). But whoever originally built the moai may be a different group entirely.This maybe implies that Lemuria was the equivalent of Atlantis at the time of "the Fall", some 309,000 years ago, the power center that got destroyed via cosmic means.

For the Grand Cycle of 309ky, it's basically a certainty that there have many, if not infinitely many of them.This maybe implies that Lemuria was the equivalent of Atlantis at the time of "the Fall", some 309,000 years ago, the power center that got destroyed via cosmic means.

We finished yesterday the second season and we quite enjoyed it. Regarding Keanu, that was quite funny actually. He does appear 3 or 4 times to basically say things like 'Yeah, myths are awesome!' and 'I totally think the same thing!'. I imagine Keanu, being a total fan, called Hancock and told him he wanted to be on his next show, so there he is.Same thoughts re: Keanu. I guess it's like an election endorsement. Keanu is a fan, and his presence will bring in viewers (and establish him as even cooler than he already is ).
Oh! I didn't know it was the same material he presented in his books vs this show. I understand your disappointment then. I didn't know him beforehand, so I'm the novice hereIt’s simply that I’ve been reading his books for decades. That’s always been his thesis. In fact I learned about the Younger Dryas from him in the first place.
Likewise. I first came across his books 25 years ago in my local library. I enjoyed the visual aspect of both series, seeing the sites and the virtual mock-ups, and Mr Hancock himself is an engaging presenter, but the rehashing of old information made both series a bit empty. But how I feel is totally insignificant when he's reaching out to hopefully many more millions who will be turned on to a deeper, truer reading of our planet's history.I get that. I said in my post that it’s a nice introduction for the novice. Isn’t that your point also? It’s disappointing to me personally because I read all of this in his books 30 years ago. I was hoping for new information. As for reaching a wider audience, I think that’s great!
