    In Māori folklore, there exists stories of a large continent to the south. This largely was disregarded by Western anthropologists for a long time, but recently has been reconsidered as possible referring to Antarctica. So, it's possible that the Māori discovered Antarctica long before Europeans had

      no it was disregarded because it was just a story. they had a similar story in europe too, about a large continent to the south, and they called it "terra australis", its what the name australia was based off. folklore isnt real

    • @Frostieyyy
      @Frostieyyy ปีที่แล้ว

      In a sense Terra Australis was real, it just wasn't what Europeans thought it would be. There were 2 continents in the southern hemisphere, Australia, and Antarctica. Folklore in most cases is based off of the truth at the time, thousands of years from now stories we tell today will be considered folklore. So, to claim "folklore isn't real" is to completely disregard alot of discoveries made over the last couple hundred centuries. @@user-js1mf7gg8t

      @@user-js1mf7gg8t That however wasn't folklore. That was a scientific theory. They thought that the southern hemisphere needed as much land as the northern one for stability or whatever and most land known at the time was on the northern hemisphere. So someone just had to find this land. The theory turned out to be kinda wrong: They found land, but it wasn't as big as they expected it to be.
      The Maori thing mentioned above sounds very different.

      Possible but Highly dubious unless those peoples had a way of knowing there was a land mass there without actually travelling to it, or if they had access to some sort of technology we no longer no about that made it more possible. Antartica is way too far away from other landmasses and way too cold for preindustrial peoples in their sailboats to discover. Even if we assume they could have somehow survived the conditions long enough to make it there, it's almost inconceivable that they would survive them for long enough to make it back to tell the tale.

    The thing is, the landscape itself has changed drastically over the years. I find it quite possible that Antarctica's current state could be the result of the ice age and there is no way of knowing what the land was like before that or who lived there unless you remove all the ice and access what's beneath it.

      It’s not very surprising. You can see a tiny peninsula stretching out very close to the island. During the winter, the area gets frozen over. So it’s quite easy to get there. The only reason people haven’t done it thousands of years sooner is because very few people lived in that area very close to the island. Let alone people with a desire to navigate through the super cold conditions of northern Siberia. Meanwhile, Svalbard is very far from even the northernmost parts of Scandinavia. And the only thing people could see for many hundreds of miles was more ocean (frozen for much of the year)

    Back in high school we were told that Franz Josef Land was the last discovered landmass on Earth (first sighted in 1873). Some googling shows that there were also islands discovered in the 20th century, most recently not by explorers but people sitting behind a computer and analysing satellite data. Would be cool to have a video on this, as well :)

      The content is awesome indeed! However, it's unsurprising they haven't mentioned the cave paintings found in Brazil dated between 10.000 to 50.000 years old (considering artifacts found in the area). This gave rise to hypothesis that humans reached the southern part of the continent before the northern land bridge. Unfortunately, lack of funding and disregard for science in South America and, most specially Brazil, make these sources hard to reach and further research almost impossible to develop. It's natural that the better research founding of USA favours the narrative and publicization of the northern land bridge hypothesis. If you are interested, the paintings are located in "Serra da Capivara", in "Caverns da pedra pintada" (cave of painted rocks). It's a remote area in Brazil and the few researchers maintaining the area have been suffering a lot from lack of funding. I had the opportunity to be advised by a professor closely related to the researchers of Serra da Capivara.

      @@rolandomayorga5280 This kind of shortsightedness is what screws up with science funding. Anthropology was originally created to better manage and bring native populations into submission of expansionist interests. It was, and perhaps still is in some contexts, highly strategic and applicable. Anthropology and sociology has been helping health officials to manage ebola of outbreaks in some areas, because they understand the social rituals that helped to spread the disease. There is no "waste of money" in any subject. It's and investment. Developments in arts were and still are responsible for many breakthroughs in technology, administration and beyond. Technology, engineering and STEM "hard sciences" in general are complemented and often led by social sciences and arts. Some destructive interests are always advocating for "funding useful education only". This kind of discourse led to some major cuts in science funding for social and arts subjects in my country, but they also cut medical sciences and all others in the package too. It seems it's easier to blame "waste" on arts and social sciences to cut everything else in the package.

    My dad (RIP) used to tell a story that in 1964 the merchant ship he was on “discovered an island”. According to him, it was just a tiny but newly formed volcanic rock jutting a couple feet out of the water in the South Pacific. He was a navigator, and it fell to him to take multiple celestial readings to try and get an accurate location, which the captain than radioed to others in the area (and presumably some other authorities) so maps could be updated to show the hazard. As I recall the captain got to name the island but I don’t know anything more than that. It’s quite possible the island was later washed away and isn’t even an island anymore.
    Apparently this is a pretty regular thing in geologically active areas.

      Yo While that is a funny scenario to think about, he largely expected to find islands on all of his voyages. However, he definitely was disappointed to have never found the fabled, “Terra Australis Incognita” (The Great South Land, which was different from Australia) being that his first two voyages were focused on finding that very continent (well, on his first one, after observing the transit of Venus in Tahiti and mapping the entirety of New Zealand after confirming it’s existence after another captain thought to have seen it while sailing). It turns out their theories were correct about its existence, just not it’s potential locations it could be because the place they were looking for was in fact Antarctica. But otherwise, he knew that he would be finding islands along the way because of his immense knowledge of weather and the depth and movement of the ocean would tell him that there was no major landmass nearby. Also, New Holland (Australia) was known about beforehand, however he was the first to intricately explore the east coast of the continent and claimed New South Wales in the name of Britain. He also managed to be the first to interact with the natives of Australia, eventually making them upset by “stealing”(eating) sea turtles. Sorry for the random history lesson, but Cook is one of my favorite historical figures and I read about him whenever possible! 😅

    • @Devystator1
      @Devystator1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Overcharge It’s a bummer how he went out, especially because he was one of the few explorers of history who had the morality to do his best to not negatively impact any native peoples. He hated if he ever had to kill any natives, and always tried to fire at least 5 warning shots if possible before fighting. In the end though, his death wasn’t even his fault. Some of his crew members got greedy and stole from the king of Hawaii (according to a Hawaiian friend of mine), which then resulted in the Hawaiian peoples attacking Cook and his crew before they left the island, which resulted in Cook dying in the fray. Fun Fact - they say his chronometer, which was the second pocket held one built by John Harrison, stopped ticking the instant that he died. Truly a poetic ending for the Captain and the first chronometer to be used in active service.

      This is where I have a problem with this video, they obviously did go into France, so saying they skipped it is just misleading people. Same with Portugal. As if the coastal spanish peoples of the time didn't walk a bit further north or south for 20,000 years for some reason.

  • @EebstertheGreat
    @EebstertheGreat 3 ปีที่แล้ว +68

    It depends on what counts. Small bits of land are still discovered somewhat regularly in the Arctic Ocean, for instance. Some new islands form over time. And massive forests like the Amazon can hide their interiors under a canopy, making many such places likely still undiscovered. In fact, there are a lot of smaller remote areas that no one has ever set foot in, such as remote parts of large mountain ranges, or vast reaches of Antarctica. There are surely also parts of open ocean no one has ever sailed over.
    At a stretch, you could also include the part of the ocean below the surface, in which case the overwhelming majority has never been discovered by humans. And if you include the subsurface of land, that majority becomes far more overwhelming.
