Ancient Aryans: The History of Crackpot N@zi Archaeology

  • Thanks to Indiana Jones, everybody knows that German archaeologists in the 1930s were searching for occult ancient artifacts... but that's just the tip of the iceberg. In this educational video, I explore how the N@zis turned the discipline of prehistoric archaeology into a cog in their propaganda machine, and how their crazy conspiracy theories about lost civilizations continue to haunt us to this day.

    "Goddammit Nazis, why are you so fashionable? You evil fucking bastards!" Well, they did have a 600+ page style guide for Nazi uniforms and accessories which included detailed instructions and illustrations about how to make them, what materials to use, how to fit and wear them properly, and how to store them so they would last. Appearance and posturing have always been of the utmost importance to every fascist movement, both then and now.

      @Jasta 2 I think you misunderstood. The idea of an Aryan people pre dates the nazi's by decades, but it was extremely different than what we think of it today. The nazi's ran with and changed the idea from describing people with a supposed indo European decent to the ubermensch nonsense we think of today in association with Nazi ideology. Nazism wasn't simply a reaction to communism, but democracy and parliamentary govt. The nazi's used a racial hierarchy to explain why essentially their system was best. The nazi's thought that their garbage racial theory was backed up by science and funded loads of different anthology and archeology research projects in the 30s. That gets to the point of my comment. when presented with the proof their own theory that the German people weren't some advanced super group in ancient times Hitler understood that undermind the racial propaganda the Nazi's had been putting out and found it embarrassing. But instead of dumping it in the garbage they decided to keep on with the big lie because it was political not scientific.

      @Jasta 2 Coherence wasn't what they were after, they wanted 'proof' that their ideology had any reason to exist in the first place... and regarding the term 'race' - there isn't any. We aren't dog breeds. If there were Aryans, they were a loose group of several peoples, whose common feature was the usage of languages which were related to each other, by structure and by a few similar words.
      I was once adressed by a Sinhalese teacher who told me, that *they* were much more aryan that I was, and he was right. His color? Very dravidian. But the idea of being aryan is the concept of being a member of a certain culture, or a group of people using a certain languge. Remember: It is our main feature, that we humans are able to create and adapt to cultures; and that has got nothing to to with our skin colour. Left alone, 'blood'.

      @@jedekozz7499 Yes, it is cognate with the English word maiden. I was told by young German students that both Mädchen and Fräulein are sexist and should not be used. I suspect that young people are becoming more egalitarian and are rebelling against traditional usages in German as well as has already happened in English. Some of these revisions are stupid, though the intent is good. English has a singular non gendered form, as German does, "One should not," for example is "Man sollte nicht" in German. Instead of using one [presumably because it sounds old fashioned] they are insisting that he and she be replaced by they.
      I don't know how far this has gone in German, though. English has been shedding elements like gender, number etc. for centuries already. Those elements are still standard in German and other western languages. This may be confined to the young and avant garde, and presumably has not found favor with German professors and the cultural elite. Not yet, anyway!

      The point wasn’t that they founded it. It was for many years archeology dismissed the idea of Atlantis or other advanced civilizations (possibly built the sphinx & pyramids) because humans didn’t have the technical knowledge to build something like that. Then they found Gobekli as well as some other settlements since, which date back to beyond that timeframe and show that in fact civilization was more advanced than previously thought. Thus based on plato’s timeframe it’s now much more possible that Atlantis did exist is some form before being destroyed by a cataclysmic event…

      I can write a book that details how there was a big Australian empire whose rule extended to all of Asia and South America. The history we know in Asia and South America today was actually simply fictional stories created by literary authors in the Australian empire. The artifacts we unearthed there were toys and merch of the fictional stories.
      We all know it's not real, but what if an apocalypse happens? Or what if I become the center of cult? Or what if I become a dictator? Many will then believe my book to be truth and if it gets enough traction, there will be debates and stuff.

      ​@@brandonvallota Quoting from Freidrich Engels in "The Magyar Struggle" where he calls the genocide of ethnic minorities in Europe "a step forward"
      "There is no country in Europe which does not have in some corner or other one or several ruined fragments of peoples, the remnant of a former population that was suppressed and held in bondage by the nation which later became the main vehicle of historical development. These relics of a nation mercilessly trampled under foot in the course of history, as Hegel says, these residual fragments of peoples always become fanatical standard-bearers of counter-revolution and remain so until their complete extirpation or loss of their national character, just as their whole existence in general is itself a protest against a great historical revolution."
      "Such, in Scotland, are the Gaels, the supporters of the Stuarts from 1640 to 1745.
      "
      "Such, in France, are the Bretons, the supporters of the Bourbons from 1792 to 1800."
      "Such, in Spain, are the Basques, the supporters of Don Carlos."
      "
      Such, in Austria, are the pan-Slavist Southern Slavs, who are nothing but the residual fragment of peoples, resulting from an extremely confused thousand years of development. That this residual fragment, which is likewise extremely confused, sees its salvation only in a reversal of the whole European movement, which in its view ought to go not from west to east, but from east to west, and that for it the instrument of liberation and the bond of unity is the Russian knout - that is the most natural thing in the world..."
      "... But at the first victorious uprising of the French proletariat, which Louis Napoleon is striving with all his might to conjure up, the Austrian Germans and Magyars will be set free and wreak a bloody revenge on the Slav barbarians. The general war which will then break out will smash this Slav Sonderbund and wipe out all these petty hidebound nations, down to their very names.
      "
      "The next world war will result in the disappearance from the face of the earth not only of reactionary classes and dynasties, but also of entire reactionary peoples. And that, too, is a step forward."
      Communists and socialists have long been comfortable with genocide, because according to Engels, merely continuing to exist and speak their languages makes certain ethnic groups inherently counter-revolutionary for merely claiming the right to continue existing, and thus, exterminating them would be a step forward. Holodmor is often discussed, but the more gruesome crime was the destruction and forced transportation of the Crimean Tatars by Stalin, in an attempt to Russify the population of Crimea, and guarantee that the local ethnic majority would be fully loyal to Moscow.
      To prove the genocidal nature of various communists, you need not seek American anti-communist propaganda. You need only quote communists themselves.

And I think that communist who accept that the state or revolutionary forces trying to create a communist society don't have a right to murder people they disagree with have crossed the threshold into acceptable, non-terroristic, political positions that deserve discussion. I'd be just fine living in the sort of economy you described because, like a lot of people, it's the political system I'm most concerned with, not the economic one. I don't care if billionaires have their fortunes taxed so heavily they end up in the same economic class I am, I care whether people I agree with 70% of everything are going to kill me for failing to endorse their views.
      It's hard to create class consciousness though when the rest of the class you're trying to motivate think communism means we'll be shot, starved, and enslaved.
      And Marx actually understood this in the 1840s, funny enough. During the revolutions of the 1840s, he supported the liberals, and asked communists to support the liberals while openly being communists. The point was to put communists in the same spaces as liberals so they could work arm and arm with each other and slowly create a class consciousness over time.
      The point was "We communists will support you in anything that makes the lives of the proletariat better. It won't work, but if you want to try, solidarity means we'll help you make a go of it." The alternative, Marx said, was to be a pathetically irrelevant political party with a corner shop that printed irrelevant pamphlets no one would read.
      If your kind of communist would see fit to stand up, lead their movement, and follow Marx's example you'd do way more to create that class consciousness you're after than the other guy arguing that the soviet union did nothing wrong.
      So I'm over here as a progressive of the FDR variety trying to build a kind of global, anti-imperial, social democratic order. I would welcome your help in building a world where no one starves, and where corporations don't run countries and economies, but are run by them.
      And maybe it won't work. Maybe the programs and solutions I advocate for will all fail.
      But if you want to follow Marx's example, and help us try, I'd welcome your help.

    Hey man, I just wanted to say that I just found your channel through this video and I love your work. This is an excellent summation of the Ahnenerbe and what they were doing for the Reich. I think it's important to point out that historical studies into the Ahnenerbe were really only carried out in the last twenty or so years. A lot of those guys went on to have careers in academia after the war was over. The important thing and this what I've researched at my blog is that in insidious ways it has informed modern Pseudoarchaeology. Just look up Frank Joseph Collins, he was a former member of the American Nazi Party and he went on to write books about atlanteans settling the Midwest and ascribing archaeological sites to white atlanteans rather than being made by indigenous Americans.

    As someone with some background in archaeology, it is genuinely difficult to refrain from screaming at the TV if I stumble into an episode of Ancient Aliens. Episodes should be taught in schools as examples of what piss poor science looks like so to be better able to spot it in life. I actually mean that, this show has value in demonstrating how not to do 'science' and the dangers of pseudo-science, perhaps it's only value.
    If you go out looking for archaeological evidence when you already 'know' the 'truth' of what happened, all actual science goes out the window. You will of course find some vague something you can attribute to your idea. I can find evidence that Babylon was settled by time traveling super intelligent Golden Retrievers if I look hard enough. So Nazi archaeology to push their mythological beliefs in the past... 'Ancient Aliens'.... so called 'Biblical Archaeology'... are all really the same form of bad archaeology. Deciding you know what happened, then go out and find anything that supports your view in deep confirmation bias. It's like a kind of 'scientific' mental illness. These people are then convinced they've proven some theory... when in truth, all they have proven is horrific misunderstanding of how science actually works.

      It's funny because the actual science of archeology and geology got started when people went out looking for evidence of the bible but then because they were actually honest they had to admit they didn't find it and instead were finding evidence of a ton of other stuff that didn't fit into the bible. It was obviously a huge upset but it also opened the door for actual science and was probably an important lesson in being willing to confront your biases. But these crackpots act like for some reason science never investigated this even though it actually was done but it just wasn't done by con men.

      Yes and no, as hedgehog said mostly because of gaps and problems with archaeologists not approaching topics and parts of history simply because it doesn't fit. So without a context there are those that misguidedly follow some yellow brick road in hopes of proving them wrong. For example the pyramids, we know the egyptians had a habit of hieroglyphics, showing the history of who made something the why etc yet we practically find nothing. And let's not mention the reality that we found the one hieroglyph that somehow mentioned khufu was the answer, turning out to be vandalism by that same archeologist simply because they couldn't find out the who and when. And the "evidence" found in the inventory stele showing that during khufu's reign all they did was do repair work, not building. Yet historians don't accept or acknowledge it simply because it's one of a kind and no other corroboration...just like the whole it was khufu that did it. Or how historians ignore the first 5 pharoahs of egypt because of the outlandish belief the people had that the God's themselves ruled over. I don't believe it was aliens myself, but the fact people ignore something simply because of the mythology surrounding something is annoying and bias.

      Whisking German scientists away made sense for everyone. Britain and America had a head start with the Jewish and anti-Nazi refugees in the 1930's, and that gave American universities a great advantage after the war when Germany and Austria decided not to invite them back.
      After the war the winners also had their pick of people with a decent education who had not fled. The result was that the US became pre-eminent in many fields and Germany never regained its pre-Nazi academic standing.
      The allies grabbed whatever they could of German military research, including CBW, torture tech and Dr Mengele's work. The US also took the results of Japanese germ warfare work in China off to Fort Detrick. The perpetrators were allowed to return to academic life in Japan. We saw the results in Viet Nam, and today at Bagram Airbase & Guantanamo Bay, and in Putin's poisoning programme.

      It is difficult to do that though because most people that like the Soviets today denounce actions during Stalin's reign. Only a few people engage in conspiracy theories and revisionism while the rest just point to post-Stalinist communism.

      @@beanoboy62 Capitalism has killed more people than communism. That is just a historic fact. The difference is that each death in communist systems was usually more tragic because it was often purposeful (except in the case of Chinese famines). Capitalism still kills millions of people every year, but it isn't purposeful. It is through things such as starvation and disease in the global South that capitalism kills unwittingly. After all, we have enough food and medical supplies to avoid these deaths, but its just not profitable to give it away or ship it.
      Plus, before WWI, capitalism killed quite a few people willingly. Slavery, deadly working conditions, and colonization were capitalist ventures (remember: Capitalism does not refer to personal economic freedom, it refers to freedom of the economy itself). While during the reigns of Stalin, Mao, and Honecker more people were being purposely killed, capitalism had done that for centuries and only had recently (with a few exceptions such as Indonesia and Korea) postponed such actions.

      @@ethankellogg8087 actually slavery and systems such as that predate capitalism? It was under the far more authoritarian mercantilist policies that this was a widespread system of labour. The current capitalist system in its current format and the industrialization that it brought about brought an end to slavery as it no longer became a viable system given how much cheaper industrial labour was. You are conflating two different systems that are not the same thing. Mercantilism was dominated by corporate monopolies that were created by government and not the market. The modern form of capitalism which is based around competition of various companies is a completely different system.

The preindustrial nature of much of the global south is a significant reason for its poverty, if free market capitalism were allowed to make its own mark and spread freely in these countries there would be marked improvement there as well, we are already seeing it in African nations such as Rwanda where recent economic liberalisation policies that have encouraged the development of local businesses and increased trade have begun to drastically improve living conditions and help to heal a deeply scarred country with a very sad past.

    Thank you so much for making this video. I'm currently in college on my way to becoming an Archaeologist, and there are just so many misconceptions about the validity of popular "alternative archaeology." Racism is a lot more rooted in society than people really care to admit, especially within the internet history buff community. So its cool to see an internet creator coherently relay information on this topic that doesn't cater to intolerant ideologies.

    Hello. I come from a mixed Chickasaw/Catawba/Cherokee family. My dad was also half Native and half Jewish, I was raised around Judaism, and I converted in the early 2000s, though I've since abandoned Judaism. The reason I mention this is because I have a familiarity with both Eastern Woodlands Native American culture and Judaism - especially after attending Yeshiva. The US colonial history is my pet period. From what I've been able to tell, James Adair came up with the idea of Jewish roots for Natives. Adair was an esteemed trader and a gentleman and pillar of Anglo society and also very respected by Cherokees, Chickasaws and Creeks. The Chickasaws especially had a massive respect for him and he knew more about Chickasaws than any other European man alive. Being familiar with Judaism, I see an uncanny many practices in common between Jews and Eastern Woodlands Indians (Adair wrote particularly about the Chickasaw). However, learned as he was Adair was not standing on the shoulders of giants with hundreds of years past of anthropological data. If he had this knowledge he'd know that these rules and taboos he saw in common are actually much more common than not. In fact they may be the so called rule of thumb for a matriarchally inheriting, warrior centric Neolithic technology based culture. Of course at that point it fits the Judeo-Christian narrative of Jews being spread to the four corners of the earth, LoSt TrIbEs, yadda yadda. Having worked in EMS, Fire and law enforcement I can promise you that you aren't going to talk sense to a dipshit clinging to schizophrenic delusions. I just wanted to play the devil's advocate. Adair loved Native Americans and considered them his equal and even more noble than Europeans, so his belief in this nonsense was not based on any supremacist ideas. Joseph Smith, though a fraud and a charlatan, had racial views common for his time.

    I always thought it was insulting to humankind to think we weren’t amazing enough to build pyramids and create systems to bring water into our cities without alien interference. I never even considered so-called race as part of the equation until some sweet young Mormons introduced me to the idea that Hebrew exiles settled America and savage darker people massacred them. Then came all the information I never got from my Anglocentric childhood history books published twenty years earlier in Texas. I must say I became extremely depressed around, oh, 2016? And that dark cloud has failed to lift. Wonder why that is.
