My step-grandfather was born and raised in Pico, Azores. migrating to the US when he was 18, just after WWI. I've seem home movies of my grandparents traveling there in the 1950s, mostly showing family members, and heard stories of family history. This is the first time I've ever heard anything about the island's history. Thank you.
I was stationed on Tercera for 3 years! We hiked the calderas and cinder cones and lava tubes and caves all over the island. So beautiful and untouched!
My dad was stationed there, at Lajes AFB, I was a kid but I remember enough to know there's no place like it on earth. I WILL go back there before I die.
I was just there for over 2 weeks and on 3 islands. Flores is full of these spiral mounds and they are massive. Some of them look like they were just exposed as they had a forest of trees on them.
Imagination seems to be the way this museum director dismisses taking seriously the obvious signs of earlier human activity. As a museum director one would expect a little more scientific curiosity…
@@AncientAtlántida thank you! No, we have not been back but would love to when we get the chance. And yeah we could be interested. If the opportunity were to present itself, why not!

No mention of the statute that was dismantled by a Spanish king of a person riding a horse bareback, or the pyramid discovered just a hundred feet beneath the surface of sea between two of the islands.
There is a lot out there to discuss. Some things that we filmed did not make it into the final cut of the video, but we’re thinking of heading back there in the future and doing a part 2!
That just screams step pyramid to me, and the alignment makes sense if you accept that we don't really know what pyramids are all about. Monuments to something we can't understand. Very interesting video. I hope you do make a part 2.
Thank you! It’s hard not to perceive them as such. We were there for a full week basically alone accompanied only by a few farmers, all the while these huge structures staring back at us. The whole thing was surreal. Let’s hope more archaeological research is done here so we can get some answers.
The ocean used to be much more shallow a few thousand years ago. I'd be very interested in diving there. There may be evidence under the rock off the islands. They may have been connected as a land mass, with what we see now as Islands were the mountain tops of a large land mass.
It's really not as much as you think it is. 120m difference from 20,000 yrs ago to the modern sea level. Compare that to the average deoth of the Atlantic Ocean which is 3,646 m (11,962 ft) and it's really not as impressive as you think it is. Also they are volcanic islands like Hawaii. There's no reason for them to be connected beyond being literally right next to each other.
I believe that the Azores were part of a huge Neolithic trading network, extending from the Mediterranean through the Straights of Gibraltar, out into the Atlantic and up the coast of Europe. At the center was the Bronze Age city of 'Atlantis', perched near the Pillars of Hercules on the Atlantic side of Southern Spain, as verified by a joint American and Spanish scientific expedition about 10 years ago.
My family is from Rabo de Peixe. Sao Miguel. My grandpa (bless his soul) would tell me stories about the islands and the folklore. My grandpa and his younger brothers would go out and look for bits and pieces of metal, usually coins, melt them at his farm and sell it. Not for much mind you. This was during the 1940s under Salazar's regime.
@@MysteryMan404 one story he would tell me quite regularly is how the islands were not actually Portuguese. He told me from all the things he found around beaches and some old forested areas he would find strange coins some silver and bits of iron. He would say they were from the nórdico. Northmen. And how Rabo de Peixe got its name.
@@lookabomba32 yeah I think there’s more history to these islands before the Portuguese got here. I wonder what secrets it has. I want to know more. I’m actually in sao Miguel now

I agree it seems like there was deliberately no mention of most of the specific evidence of Egyptian settlement during the late Bronze Age. Furthermore Atlantis the city is to be clearly differentiated from Atlantis the country. So the Empire of Atlantis spanned across several modern countries but was based in Mauritania at the Eye of Sahara a.k.a. the Richat Structure also known as Guleb al Richat in Arabic. This is natural geological formation known as a cinder cone, that is probably one of the most symmetrical that we have found in the world, but it’s not unique. There’s several over the near the Lybian, Sudanese, Egyptian three-way border. This cluster of cinder cones seems to be the epicentre of bedouin Civilisation and an origin point of many domestic sheep.
My mom is scotch Irish and my Dad heritage is from the Azores and I have a disease that is autosomal recessive a disease that both parents have to have the same faulty chromosomes and I’m the only one that have the disease! It comes from the Germanic people! Or the Viking’s that were farmers and a many ice age,caused the people to have a bottleneck in the bloodline and therefore there are a lot of recessive diseases in Norwegian people it is Slavic peoples as well 🕊
The Iberian peninsula was invaded by Germanic tribes about 1500 years ago. In the Norwest of the peninsula existed a Suev kingdom, and in the rest of the peninsula a Visigothic kingdom. So, maybe your ancestors came form the same germanic family hundreds of years ago. 😀
There are oven like structures inside and beside the cave where they found bone scraps. It could’ve been a dovecote, I don’t know, but I think the evidence is pointing more towards some sort of crematorium complex.
Just south of that on the plain under 17,000 feet of ocean towards northern Africa lies the rest of a huge Atlantean civilization. Look from Google earth and be overwhelmed by the sheer size, hundreds of square miles of development.
Hi Scott, could very well be. As I’ve mentioned in other comments, there are oven like structures inside and beside the cave where bone scraps have been found. To me, this evidence is pointing more towards some sort of crematorium complex. Of course, more conclusive evidence may be needed.
@@WorldOutofTime I really liked this atmospheric video. I think that the signs are unmistakable that the islands had pre-Portuguese inhabitants of some sort who were not present when the Portuguese arrived and so had died out or more likely abandoned the islands at some point. Perhaps its because the volcanic eruptions drove them away. That whole area of the Atlantic and the surrounding lands are very seismically active and historically subject to eruptions, tidal waves, and earthquakes. So is there human ash in the nooks? Also, natural caves could have had multiple uses over time, including as living quarters for humans and burial sites. Are there human bones in the ovens or animal bones? I saw the basements of houses that were excavated in Orvieto, Italy by the owners as dovecotes, so no other use of those spaces would have been possible. But as a Columbarium it would be very unusual. How would the niches have been sealed? SZ BA MA Art History and Architecture
yeah, it is! that one is a bit more elusive though. It was not very clear to us what its purpose could have been, and there was no information about it in the studies that we read. So it remains a mystery, like the rest, haha.
Such beauty, thank you, and I'm always ip for some speculation, but could I note a cultural dissonance? That catholic music while serene seems at odds with your speculation, as any catholicism surely originates with the Portuguese?
Hi Roland, thanks for your comment. We think about music often as it plays a big part in our videos. Music and cultural context is something we regularly discuss. But ultimately, our main concern was: how do we establish a certain sacrality or deep sentiment about these places. We found this music evoked these feelings; it was mostly an artistic choice. If you watch our other videos, you’ll see we tend to do this.
@@wout123100Time for a geology lesson sir... Not only are the Azores exactly where Plato described Atlantis to be (west of the Pillars of Herecles (Strait of Gibraltar), past a few set of islands, but before the Americas), he even called the exact date of the supposed flood that could have been responsible (11,600 years ago), which aligns with scientific evidence of catastrophic sea level rise (known as Meltwater Pulse 1b). And that meltwater pulse, was caused by the sudden melting of the great ice sheets around the world during that time, a very fast, catastrophic melting, at the end of the Pleistocene. Since the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (where the Azores is) is some of the youngest crust on Earth, AND the Azores is locked on what is known as a 'Triple Plate Junction', which basically can act like a hinge, it's very, very plausible (and with some empirical evidence to support it) that the Azores Plateau, the underwater plateau that hosts the seamounts making up the archipelago of the Azores today, could have 'Isostatically Depressed' into the crust of the Earth, due to the massive weight of the ice sheets being lifted from North America, just like how a seesaw works... So basically, when there is an ice sheet that is the size of the current Antarctic ice sheet or bigger, placed ON North America, this causes the Azores Plateau to RAISE out of the water, and when those ice sheets MELT, and that WEIGHT is LIFTED, you get the possibility of the submergence of a landmass, just how Plato described. They're not myths, they're memories.

You know, the more videos I see about all the things that are on these islands the more I realize that there are people really trying to keep this information out of the public domain, which is very interesting. It’s even more interesting when you pair it up with the other information about stone structures on many other Mediterranean islands and, the islands off the coast of Africa and Asia that also have mysterious stone structures. Debt defy explanation and cannot be accurately dated. This is kinda that scares the shit out of archaeologists and anthropologist, not to mention the wealthy philanthropist that tend to take a Eurocentric point of view about the whole world and how it came to be. SMH.
A museum director saying "Who cares?" to the hipothesis of human occupation of the Azores before the portuguese, is shocking. How about people with some interest on history?
14:30... waffle construction just like today. Atlantis was a One world government, monetary system, and military. The attempt at a one world religion and the wickedness of its separation from the Heavenly Father brought a deluge that wiped out this wicked and adulterous generation.
As a retired archaeologist I can guarantee that when colleagues and lay persons don't understand a structure they invariably declare it of religious significance. Here, "sacred space". It's a cistern requiring sunlight to enter so you can see what you're doing when inside. Solstice? That's what they all say (Ah! The Wonder!). It's just your imagination and the desire to make the site important with a good video and pretty music. Personally, I have no doubt you are describing previously overlooked evidence of an earlier culture but you have no context. You need some proper archaeological evidence. Pottery, artefacts, middens, pits, post-holes, masonry... structures designed for shelter. Everything that went with a culture building pyramids, columbaria and cisterns (aka, water temples). Find that. Please. Putting your video into context, even Early Palaeolithic Homo heidelbergensis left clear evidence of existence in the form of flint tools. Where is yours? Go looking.
@@gdr189 Again, you may not know, but your second reply still tells us nothing about anything. Try again...... and remember, the subject is the Azores in the pre-Portuguese era..

@@wout123100Time for a geology lesson sir...
Not only are the Azores exactly where Plato described Atlantis to be (west of the Pillars of Herecles (Strait of Gibraltar), past a few set of islands, but before the Americas), he even called the exact date of the supposed flood that could have been responsible (11,600 years ago), which aligns with scientific evidence of catastrophic sea level rise (known as Meltwater Pulse 1b).
And that meltwater pulse, was caused by the sudden melting of the great ice sheets around the world during that time, a very fast, catastrophic melting, at the end of the Pleistocene.
Since the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (where the Azores is) is some of the youngest crust on Earth, AND the Azores is locked on what is known as a 'Triple Plate Junction', which basically can act like a hinge, it's very, very plausible (and with some empirical evidence to support it) that the Azores Plateau, the underwater plateau that hosts the seamounts making up the archipelago of the Azores today, could have 'Isostatically Depressed' into the crust of the Earth, due to the massive weight of the ice sheets being lifted from North America, just like how a seesaw works...
So basically, when there is an ice sheet that is the size of the current Antarctic ice sheet or bigger, placed ON North America, this causes the Azores Plateau to RAISE out of the water, and when those ice sheets MELT, and that WEIGHT is LIFTED, you get the possibility of the submergence of a landmass, just how Plato described.
They're not myths, they're memories.

So basically, when there is an ice sheet that is the size of the current Antarctic ice sheet or bigger, placed ON North America, this causes the Azores Plateau to RAISE out of the water, and when those ice sheets MELT, and that WEIGHT is LIFTED, you get the possibility of the submergence of a landmass, just how Plato described.
They're not myths, they're memories..
@wout123100 Time for a geology lesson good sir...
Not only are the Azores exactly where Plato described Atlantis to be (west of the Pillars of Herecles (Strait of Gibraltar), past a few set of islands, but before the Americas), he even called the exact date of the supposed flood that could have been responsible (11,600 years ago), which aligns with scientific evidence of catastrophic sea level rise (known as Meltwater Pulse 1b).

wow
You know, the more videos I see about all the things that are on these islands the more I realize that there are people really trying to keep this information out of the public domain, which is very interesting. It’s even more interesting when you pair it up with the other information about stone structures on many other Mediterranean islands and, the islands off the coast of Africa and Asia that also have mysterious stone structures. Debt defy explanation and cannot be accurately dated. This is kinda that scares the shit out of archaeologists and anthropologist, not to mention the wealthy philanthropist that tend to take a Eurocentric point of view about the whole world and how it came to be. SMH.
Who narrates this?
Luis, 1/2 of A World Out of Time!
@@WorldOutofTime He sounds like Edgar Ramirez.
I am brazilian, a native portuguese speaker, I can hardly understand what the first woman is saying.
São Miguel got a strong accent specially in the rural areas
In the future, us highways would be reviewed the same way, who build these remains?
Such a weird doom laden soundtrack.
Azoros was captain of Argo.
A museum director saying "Who cares?" to the hipothesis of human occupation of the Azores before the portuguese, is shocking. How about people with some interest on history?
Atlantas.
Too many tourists
that is where Enki was hiding "The Real Chosen ones" whom by the way were Brown Skin people
14:30... waffle construction just like today.
Atlantis was a One world government, monetary system, and military. The attempt at a one world religion and the wickedness of its separation from the Heavenly Father brought a deluge that wiped out this wicked and adulterous generation.
As a retired archaeologist I can guarantee that when colleagues and lay persons don't understand a structure they invariably declare it of religious significance. Here, "sacred space". It's a cistern requiring sunlight to enter so you can see what you're doing when inside. Solstice? That's what they all say (Ah! The Wonder!). It's just your imagination and the desire to make the site important with a good video and pretty music. Personally, I have no doubt you are describing previously overlooked evidence of an earlier culture but you have no context. You need some proper archaeological evidence. Pottery, artefacts, middens, pits, post-holes, masonry... structures designed for shelter. Everything that went with a culture building pyramids, columbaria and cisterns (aka, water temples). Find that. Please. Putting your video into context, even Early Palaeolithic Homo heidelbergensis left clear evidence of existence in the form of flint tools. Where is yours? Go looking.
No material evidence is shown here for any pre-Portuguese presence.
You may not know, but the strictness, timing and framing of your statement displays a level of ulteriorness.
@@gdr189 You may not know, but your reply tells us nothing about anything. Try again.
@@markaxworthy2508 It tells us about you, clearly. Potentially, you, about you.
@@gdr189 Again, you may not know, but your second reply still tells us nothing about anything. Try again...... and remember, the subject is the Azores in the pre-Portuguese era..
Hi Mark. Go be a bore somewhere else.
