historians used to think big cities couldn't exist up in the mountains bc it was too hard to grow food & survive the harsh conditions
i wonder how much history will have to be rewritten in the coming years
one of the cities (Tugunbulak) has FIVE massive fortresses, each bigger than a football field. we're talking about serious medieval engineering at 2000m above sea level
these cities were right on ancient trade routes & built near iron deposits. looks like mountain people weren't just herders passing through - they were running whole industrial cities & probably controlling trade through the peaks

Is there an equivalent tech for the ocean floor yet?
I feel like there's probably a lot of undiscovered action in the Mediterranean alone.

Dope. Crazy how lidar changed archaeology. What used to take months of on-ground surveying can be done from a drone/chopper in hours. It can also go through forest canopy.
That’s so cool, there are so many missing historical structures that we could find using lidar with AI, the tomb of cleopatra and mark antony, temple of Artemis, gardens of Babylon, so much cool shit could be coming in so many fields
Sea levels on Earth tend to wipe out things at lower elevations - so … many such cycles

Graham Hancock is gonna feel so good when he proves all those stubborn archeologists wrong lol
Remarkable! Drone LIDAR is revolutionizing archaeology by revealing the hidden layers of our past, showcasing the power of modern tools in uncovering lost chapters of human history.
LiDAR is genuinely really fucking cool. Have you seen the whole ass lost civilization the size of the maya empire that we didn’t even know existed they found in the western parts of the amazon?
And people laugh when I say we should be building new cities when it has been, in fact, literally the thing humans are meant to do.
Not surprising. LiDAR scans in Europe have uncovered all kinds of things from different time periods.

I used to live there but I was sworn to secrecy—Guess I don't need to hold that in anymore
Can anyone find these on satellite view? Looks like the area identified is upstream from Bakhmal, on the right edge of the attached photo.
Ecuador’s former comptroller general, Carlos Ramon Polit, sentenced to 10 years in U.S. prison for $10M bribery and money laundering scheme. Once tasked with fighting corruption, Polit hid illicit funds in Florida businesses.
Mountains were feared as bandit country by lowlanders for good reasons. Crops are secondary when you can plunder and retreat.
