    Years ago here in Las Vegas they found a trap with the front 2 claws of a Saber Tooth Tiger 🐅 or a Smilodon . Turned out there wasn't any huge metal traps back then. And they were Faux Paws ! Waka Waka Waka😅 Enjoy your weekend History Guy 🤓and Fellow Classmates!

    St. Louis doesn't have a city under it but parts have caves and tunnels connecting them. Old city hospital had a subterranean morgue and that was less than 10 blocks from several breweries. Not to mention the proclivity that previous generations of German immigrants had for underground beer gardens, all that means the south side of town is riddled with tunnels. Prohibition probably expanded the networks most. What's really interesting is that just south of that area is the last burial mound from antiquity.
    Area has a lot going on underground, is my point.

    Great report, Lance.
    Yes, in the 19th century readers expected the fantastic as entertainment as was liberally used aside true local, state and national newspaper content of the time. For the most part journalistic integrity -- not immune to occasional yellow pages -- became important in the 20th century.
    Now, in the 21st century of high tech it is essential to utilize multiple proven reliable sources for news.
    At least guys like you and I are fortunate to know the Cahokia Mounds and that area was a location of one of the largest indigenous American cities north of the Rio Grande.

Also, the reference to "yellow" journalism above reminds me of the importance of so-called "muckrakers" in journalism, a term which is now looked upon by many as a pejorative for describing "sleazy" tabloid-style reporting, but which once referred to reporters who dug doggedly for evidence of political and financial corruption and exposed it in the press.

    A more persistent theme is attributing real ruins, like Maya pyramids or Moundbuilder figures to some lost civilization. Ignatius Donnelly had a run in the late 1900’s claiming Atlantis was real, and the builders of various curiosities. Erich von Danniken claimed aliens. Hancock is back to Atlantis, or something similar.

    there are freight and sales records. A display in the Fort Museum in Fort Dodge Iowa. A man purchased a large block of gypsum from Fort Dodge Iowa paid for Railroad freight to Chicago where he hired a sculpter to turn it into a crude man shape. Paid for another railroad trip to Cardiff New York where he hired a pair of diggers to bury the "man" outside of town. Then waited several years before he hired a separate pair of diggers to establish a foundation for some kind of new construction where the "human" shape was discovered. The entire story involved PT Barnum which wraps the story full circle since the town of Barnum Iowa located about 10 miles west of Fort Dodge is the off season home of several circus workers employed by PT Barnum. There is still more gypsum still underground in Fort Dodge than was ever found in Paris France. But Plaster of Paris is catchier than Plaster of FT Dodge

    • @jarmokankaanpaa6528
      @jarmokankaanpaa6528 6 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Most coal seams were formed during the late Carboniferous (c. 324-299 million years ago) and the early Permian (c. 299-273 mya). Terrestrial vertebrates at that time were limited to archaic reptiles and amphibians, actual dinosaurs were still some 60 million years in the future. The screw was invented in Mesopotamia after 900 BC, so it is rather unlikely (to be polite) that any screws or other human-made tools supposedly imbedded in coal seams should derive from the time of their formation.

    • @bryceg5709
      @bryceg5709 6 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @jarmokankaanpaa6528 ya that's not their argument either the tool/metal is old or the coal is young both is their argument. Radio carbon dating doesn't work on either etc. But it's all bunk no real undisturbed fines exist.

    • @jtzoltan
      @jtzoltan 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@jarmokankaanpaa6528 I found lengthy but fascinating overview of related subjects with some references that dives into some things you discuss here regarding coal seam formation and relating to lignin and resin decomposing fungi amd microorganisms:
      "Some recent work strongly suggests the lack of lignin-decomposing fungi is not the main contributor to Carbonifeous coal. It is more likely that coal formation was so prolific in the Carboniferous mainly because of the combination of tectonics (many basins that could fill with buried plant matter) and climate (moist, greenhouse conditions supporting abundant vegetation and swamps in the basins). Coal has continued to form since the Carboniferous, up to geologically recent times, and its precursor peat continues to exist and form today. This includes many current and historically economically useful deposits.
      Tropical peat swamp forests climatically and geologically similar to those eof the Carboniferous (albeit with different flora and fauna) can be found today in parts of Central America, Africa, and SE Asia, but mostly in the areas stretching from Thailand and the Philippines through Indonesia to New Guinea. (Peat bogs and swamps can also be found in temperate areas.) Conversely, not everywhere in the Carboniferous was coal forest.
      As of yet,, the oldest direct evidence of lignin decay, resembling that caused by white-rot fungi is from the Permian (the period following the Carboniferous), and statistical molecular clock (genetics) estimates also puts the likely evolution of these fungi in the Permian. But the uncertainty range on the molecular clock stretches back before the Carboniferous. Wood and similar plant materials also contain a great deal of cellulose and hemicellulose, and the proportions were different in the past and in different plant groups. The first direct evidence of fungal degradation of plant cell walls is from the Devonian (before the Carboniferous), only ~30 million years after woody plants evolved, though the capability to degrade cellulose and hemicellulose likely goes back further to the Cambrian (Hibbett et al., 2016).
      The tree-like lycopsids that formed much of the Carboniferous coal were relatively low in lignin. The multiple transitions in dominance between lignin-poor lycopsids and non-woody plants to lignin-rich tree ferns and primitive conifers did not significantly affect coal deposition rates. Also, even a conservative estimate of plant productivity would have crashed CO2 to global glaciation levels within a million years had there been no decomposition to release carbon. (The CO2 level did almost drop to that level over tens of millions of years in part because of the coal formation, but chemical weathering of volcanic rock to produce carbonates was also a major contributor. In general carbonate rock is a much larger carbon sink than organic matter.) See Nelsen et al. (2016)."

    That moberly sensation was real. I watched a a documentary about it. As legend has it, somewhere between 200-700ad a marauding band of warriors conquered a village in what appeared to be north Eastern Europe & took the survivors as slaves. On young boy was was put to work as a beast of burden milling wheat. That child slowly over years of toil outlasted his slave companions until he was the last one left pushing the mill stone. Now all those years of hard labor created a physique that would rival a modern bodybuilder. The guy managed to escape. He had to run for many miles and days. Dogs were set loose on him. Upon climbing a rocky outcropping to escape the dogs he inadvertently stumbled upon the great cavernous room or perhaps it was an ancient hall. At the end of the great hall was large & impressive throne where still sat the skeleton of the ancient warrior king. It’s estimated that the king would have been about 9-10 feet tall. Now the escaped slave took the giant king’s sword. Referred to him as krum

    I need to say something about the author David Hatcher Childress who is mentioned in this video. He is described by others as a "modern day Indiana Jones". He doesn't describe himself as that, other people do. He almost certainly tells those people that they should describe him that way. Also, a lot of his writing seems pretty racist. So, what type of "Indiana Jones" is he trying to be? Because Indiana Jones was really bad at archeology, but he was very good at punching Nazis (racists).
