Graham Hancock gives mainstream archeologists fits. Academia hates him because he has the courage and curiosity to question their "accepted" dogmas and to even prove that those dogmas wrong!

National Geographic has at its website a link to marine archeologists exploring the Black Sea. Very interesting for those who want to know more about it.

"Graham Hancock gives mainstream archeologists fits. "

Yup, I know. I didn't know he was a marine archaeologist.

A British marine archaeologist, Graham Hancock

A promotion? Or demotion? Hancock is a journalist. He has been diving lately with archaeologists in several locations, India being one.

"Hancock is a journalist. He has been diving lately with archaeologists in several locations, India being one."

Hancock does not get the respect he desires because he is not an archaeologist? He sure gets people thinking though, me included.

Hancock is a rare bird. An investigative journalist, but with an interest in rooting out the sources of some popular rumors and myths by going to the place and talking with the local people man to man.

For example, his attempt to track down the Ark of the Covenant, although the trail ended indefinitely, brought Ethiopia to life for us, and introduced us to those who are to this day guarding what they believe is the actual Ark.

Now he has become proficient in SCUBA and is reporting on these drowned ruins. We are getting an excellent picture of what is happening in the field thanks to him.

India in the news ping!

Interesting. Thanks for the ping. We need to rocket the moon close enough to the earth to gravitationally suck some of the oceans to it to see how many cities are down there. :^)

Ah, leave'm for the folks in the next Ice Age. (By then all traces of us should just about be gone.)

Or buried under a mile of ice like Lake Volstok(sp?).

[#3Fan]

Oops, add a :^) to that.

[manna]

Pong!

[blam]

"Or buried under a mile of ice like Lake Volstok(sp?)."?

They're trying to figure out how to drill down and sample the lake water without polluting it.

[#3Fan]

I haven't been hearing much on it lately.
