On this video, we're going to be discussing the most controversial archaeological discoveries in the history of humankind. Archaeologists have been able to piece together clues about our past and piece together stories about our ancestors. This exploration has helped us understand how civilizations evolved and how cultures interacted with one another. In this video, we will explore some of archaeology's greatest mysteries and break down what these discoveries can tell us about our history. We have made a compilation of the most intriguing findings and how archaeologists have traditionally interpreted those findings. At the same time, many archaeologists, scientists and enthusiasts disagree with mainstream archaeology. In many cases, many facts are being ignored or dismissed with the argument that there is not enough irrefutable proof to overturn traditional views of archaeology.
