       Legend of Atlantis (Full Episode)
       --- Quote ---
       > Exciting evidence emerges of civilizations lost for centuries
       under the waves, from mysterious underwater pyramids off the
       coast of Japan to the fabled city of Atlantis itself. Using
       cutting-edge graphics to reveal what's actually lying on the
       seafloor, and insight from the world's top marine
       archaeologists, Drain the Oceans finds the answers.

       ‘Mind blowing’ ancient settlements uncovered in the Amazon

       > Humans have lived in the Amazon Basin — a vast river-drainage
       system roughly the size of the continental United States — for
       around 10,000 years . Researchers thought that before the
       arrival of Europeans in the sixteenth century, all Amazonians
       lived in small, nomadic tribes that had little impact on the
       world around them. And although early European visitors
       described a landscape filled with towns and villages, later
       explorers were unable to find these sites.

       > By the twentieth century, archaeologists had yet to confirm
       the rumours, and argued that the Amazon’s nutrient-poor soil was
       unable to support large-scale agriculture, and that it would
       have prevented tropical civilizations — similar to those found
       in central America and southeast Asia — from arising in the
       Amazon. By the 2000s, however, archaeological opinion was
       beginning to shift. Some researchers suggested that unusually
       high concentrations of domesticated plants, along with patches
       of unusually nutrient-rich soil that could have been created by
       people, might indicate that ancient Amazonians had indeed shaped
       their environment.
       >
       > The hypothesis gained steam when, in 2018, archaeologists
       reported3 hundreds of large, geometric mounds that had been
       uncovered because of deforestation in the southern Amazon
       rainforest. These structures hinted at ancient organized
       societies capable of thriving in one location for years — but
       direct evidence of settlements was lacking.

       > Previous digs had revealed that these ‘forest islands’
       contained traces of human habitation, including the remains of
       the mysterious Casarabe culture, which appeared around ad 500.
       During one excavation, Prümers and his colleagues realized that
       they had found what looked like a wall, indicating that a
       permanent settlement had once occupied the area. The researchers
       also found graves, platforms and other indications of a complex
       society. But dense vegetation made it difficult for them to use
       conventional methods to survey the site.

       Lost beneath the leaves: Lasers reveal an ancient Amazonian
       civilisation
       --- Quote ---
       > Pyramids and canals built by an ancient civilisation have been
       discovered beneath the forests of the Bolivian Amazon. LiDAR
       technology allowed archaeologists to see through the canopy to
       reveal hundreds of previously unknown structures and settlements
       from the Casarabe culture of 500-1400 AD. In this film
       archaeologist Heiko Prümers describes his work in a region long
       thought to be unable to support complex ancient societies.

       My father always talked about this legend:
       www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Oj6TvFZIeE
       This mythology is very useful in connecting Hindu Aryanists
       living in the Atlantisphere (who have ethnic origins in the
       Indosphere) to the land they live in (Atlantis), such as myself.
       It is also an Indocentric form of Aryan diffusion, in that
       promotes the view that the Atlantisphere was always a "Hindu"
       (i.e. Aryan) land.

       [Quote]
       Bhagiratha (Sanskrit: &#2349;&#2327;&#2368;&#2352;&#2341;, IAST:
       Bhag&#299;ratha) is a legendary king of the Ikshvaku dynasty in
       Hindu literature. He is best known for his legend of bringing
       the sacred river Ganges, personified as the Hindu river goddess
       Ganga, from heaven upon the earth, by performing a penance.[2]

       Although one doesn't necessarily have to subscribe to this view
       to be an Indian origin/Hindu Aryanist in the Atlantisphere. Then
       again, one doesn't even necessarily have to believe in Aryan
       diffusion to be an Aryanist either.

       Also, the previous post reminded me of this quote from the main
       site:
  HTML https://web.archive.org/web/20161231062918/http://aryanism.net/culture/aryan-race/aryan-diffusion-roundup
       [Quote]
       The common literary motif of sky and earth as a pair - man
       existing between the two - derives from the steppe panorama of
       Turanian blood memory. A rival literary motif, and the correct
       pairing according to Aryan blood memory, is sky and ocean as a
       pair, respectively the source and sink of the water cycle linked
       by rivers and driven by sunlight. In the Turanian view, sky and
       earth are complementary opposites (hence often portrayed as
       different genders), whereas in the Aryan view, sky and ocean are
       two forms containing the same content. Which blood memory do you
       have?
       [/Quote]
       When I first read that, I was instantly reminded of Bhagiratha.
