“Graham Hancock, a British journalist and star of the controversial Netflix series Ancient Apocalypse, has theorized — without empirical evidence — that Gobekli Tepe was built by a “lost civilization” wiped out by an Ice Age cataclysm.”

Graham Hancock is entertaining to read, but he’s nutter.

Just another crackpot, less inventive than von Däniken or Teilhard de Chardin.

And none of them are worth reading. It’s much more interesting reading serious people with hypotheses grounded in fact.

If you’re interested in hearing just how full of shit Graham Hancock is, Miniminuteman on YouTube is a great watch.

Damn fine entertainment though. Did you see the Dibble arc in season 3?
