These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:01,890 --> 00:00:04,950 NARRATOR: The mass destruction of an ancient culture. 2 00:00:05,130 --> 00:00:08,460 JONATHAN YOUNG: Their art, their philosophy, 3 00:00:08,550 --> 00:00:11,520 their scientific findings... he burned the whole thing. 4 00:00:11,610 --> 00:00:14,850 NARRATOR: Lost texts that could have offered evidence 5 00:00:15,030 --> 00:00:19,710 of extraterrestrial contact from across the globe. 6 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,320 DAVID CHILDRESS: Literally, people were coming 7 00:00:22,410 --> 00:00:25,380 from all over the world to Mexico at this time. 8 00:00:27,270 --> 00:00:28,440 PRAVEEN MOHAN: Here we are in the middle 9 00:00:28,530 --> 00:00:31,140 of South America in a remote site 10 00:00:31,230 --> 00:00:33,840 that looks exactly like Hindu carvings. 11 00:00:34,020 --> 00:00:36,360 -How is that possible? -It’s amazing. 12 00:00:36,450 --> 00:00:39,510 NARRATOR: Could the Vatican still be hiding proof 13 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,560 of mankind’s ancient alien origins? 14 00:00:43,740 --> 00:00:45,450 GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: I predict thousands 15 00:00:45,630 --> 00:00:48,780 as-of-yet undiscovered sites 16 00:00:48,870 --> 00:00:52,830 will finally show that our ancestors 17 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,800 made contact with extraterrestrials. 18 00:00:58,770 --> 00:01:00,930 NARRATOR: There is a doorway 19 00:01:01,020 --> 00:01:03,810 in the universe. 20 00:01:03,900 --> 00:01:06,690 Beyond it is the promise of truth. 21 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,380 It demands we question everything 22 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,810 we have ever been taught. 23 00:01:12,900 --> 00:01:16,500 The evidence is all around us. 24 00:01:16,590 --> 00:01:20,460 The future is right before our eyes. 25 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,250 We are not alone. 26 00:01:23,340 --> 00:01:26,310 We have never been alone. 27 00:01:36,390 --> 00:01:39,270 NARRATOR: The Yucatán Peninsula. 28 00:01:39,450 --> 00:01:42,780 1549. 29 00:01:42,870 --> 00:01:45,300 A fleet of Spanish galleons arrive 30 00:01:45,390 --> 00:01:48,180 on the coast of the New World. 31 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,410 And with them is a small army of Roman Catholic priests, 32 00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:55,020 who, during what is the height of the Inquisition, 33 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,810 are determined to rescue the pagan souls 34 00:01:57,900 --> 00:02:00,240 of the natives for Almighty God. 35 00:02:00,330 --> 00:02:03,390 And leading them... direct from the Vatican... 36 00:02:03,570 --> 00:02:07,890 is the fanatical Franciscan friar Diego de Landa. 37 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,670 During the Spanish colonial period 38 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,740 in what we call Mexico Yucatán, 39 00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:15,720 the cradle of Mayan civilization, 40 00:02:15,900 --> 00:02:18,870 it was the priests who had a lot of power because the Vatican 41 00:02:19,050 --> 00:02:21,210 was one of the most powerful nations on the Earth. 42 00:02:21,300 --> 00:02:23,190 JASON MARTELL: Diego de Landa came over 43 00:02:23,370 --> 00:02:25,530 wanting to teach Christian understandings 44 00:02:25,620 --> 00:02:27,690 and principles to the Mayans, 45 00:02:27,780 --> 00:02:31,200 but was probably intimidated by the vast wealth of knowledge 46 00:02:31,290 --> 00:02:33,990 that he actually saw that they had tapped into. 47 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:39,210 NARRATOR: The Mayan civilization that Friar Diego de Landa came upon 48 00:02:39,300 --> 00:02:41,550 had thrived in the rain-drenched jungles 49 00:02:41,730 --> 00:02:43,800 and fertile plains of Central America 50 00:02:43,890 --> 00:02:46,860 for more than 2,000 years. 51 00:02:46,950 --> 00:02:50,550 ERICH VON DANIKEN: The Spanish conquerors found pyramids, 52 00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:53,610 they found temples, they found paved roads 53 00:02:53,790 --> 00:02:57,930 and they found thousands and thousands of Maya handwritings, 54 00:02:58,020 --> 00:02:59,910 thousands of it. 55 00:03:00,090 --> 00:03:02,520 MARTELL: We have a lot of very interesting information 56 00:03:02,610 --> 00:03:05,940 that comes out of this culture we call the Maya. 57 00:03:06,030 --> 00:03:08,640 They have been revered for many things in their knowledge base, 58 00:03:08,730 --> 00:03:13,320 especially around time and concepts of math and science, 59 00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:17,190 and the movements of the solar system. 60 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,510 NARRATOR: But while the Maya were in many ways culturally advanced, 61 00:03:21,690 --> 00:03:25,830 their religious beliefs were notoriously bloodthirsty. 62 00:03:26,010 --> 00:03:28,710 They believed in human sacrifice, 63 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,860 and as far as Friar Diego de Landa was concerned, 64 00:03:31,950 --> 00:03:35,910 did so at the expense of their eternal souls. 65 00:03:36,090 --> 00:03:38,340 It was a clash of cultures 66 00:03:38,430 --> 00:03:42,480 that would not end well for the Maya people. 67 00:03:42,570 --> 00:03:45,810 Diego de Landa, later, when he was back in Spain again, 68 00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:49,410 he wrote down, "We found thousands of handwritings 69 00:03:49,590 --> 00:03:51,210 "of the Indians. 70 00:03:51,390 --> 00:03:55,350 But they all contained just a Devil’s thing." 71 00:03:57,690 --> 00:04:00,930 YOUNG: A new teaching, a new religion comes into a place 72 00:04:01,020 --> 00:04:04,620 where there is a very strong adherence to a body of ideas. 73 00:04:04,710 --> 00:04:06,960 We have a competitive situation. 74 00:04:07,050 --> 00:04:09,750 One maneuver is to destroy 75 00:04:09,930 --> 00:04:12,360 as much evidence of the old way as you can, 76 00:04:12,450 --> 00:04:14,160 and that will help reduce its grip. 77 00:04:14,250 --> 00:04:17,130 "It’s not sacred anymore, this is just stuff, 78 00:04:17,310 --> 00:04:19,650 so we can burn it with impunity." 79 00:04:21,540 --> 00:04:24,600 NARRATOR: On July 12, 1562, 80 00:04:24,690 --> 00:04:26,400 the Catholic priests, 81 00:04:26,580 --> 00:04:28,920 with the armed assistance of the Spanish military, 82 00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:32,340 executed what was known during the Inquisition 83 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,390 as an auto-da-fé, or "act of faith," 84 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,820 whereby the Maya population 85 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,250 was forced to declare their religious conversion 86 00:04:41,430 --> 00:04:45,480 to Christianity or be put to death. 87 00:04:45,570 --> 00:04:49,530 It was also a day that reportedly saw the destruction 88 00:04:49,710 --> 00:04:52,230 of all of the Maya sacred scrolls 89 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,020 and more than 5,000 priceless images, 90 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,980 an entire historical record. 91 00:04:59,070 --> 00:05:01,950 YOUNG: There were thousands of books called codices, 92 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,290 probably scrolls, burned. 93 00:05:04,380 --> 00:05:08,880 All their art, their philosophy, their scientific findings, 94 00:05:09,060 --> 00:05:11,670 the accumulative knowledge of this great civilization, 95 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,000 they burned the whole thing. 96 00:05:15,090 --> 00:05:16,800 NARRATOR: But by burning the vast knowledge accumulated 97 00:05:16,980 --> 00:05:20,310 by the Maya, did Friar Diego de Landa 98 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,000 also destroy something of even greater historical value? 99 00:05:24,090 --> 00:05:26,970 Might he have erased all traces 100 00:05:27,150 --> 00:05:30,840 of the Maya’s extraterrestrial ancestors? 101 00:05:30,930 --> 00:05:34,170 There’s very interesting information told to us 102 00:05:34,350 --> 00:05:36,960 by the Mayan elders that still exist today. 103 00:05:37,050 --> 00:05:39,930 They speak of a time that they were led to this land 104 00:05:40,020 --> 00:05:41,640 by the sky people. 105 00:05:41,730 --> 00:05:44,610 Could they be referencing some type of lost race, 106 00:05:44,700 --> 00:05:48,300 even possibly extraterrestrial in nature? 107 00:05:48,390 --> 00:05:51,630 They seemed to have knowledge of math and science, 108 00:05:51,810 --> 00:05:55,410 which we can’t explain how they got this information. 109 00:05:55,500 --> 00:05:57,300 When you ask them, "How did they gain 110 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,190 all of this amazing information?" 111 00:05:59,280 --> 00:06:02,250 they always reference, "We learned it from the sky people." 112 00:06:02,430 --> 00:06:05,580 HUGH NEWMAN: There were traditions in ancient Mexico 113 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,900 of a great teacher arriving on the Gulf Coast. 114 00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:11,790 And when he arrived, he brought with him 115 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,860 the arts of civilization. 116 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,650 We know the tradition may have originated 117 00:06:16,830 --> 00:06:18,450 with a great civilization 118 00:06:18,540 --> 00:06:21,420 who were around long before the Maya, 119 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,220 but no one knows who they really were, 120 00:06:23,310 --> 00:06:24,750 or where they really came from. 121 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,780 NARRATOR: Tres Zapotes, Mexico, 122 00:06:30,870 --> 00:06:34,110 1938. 123 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,440 Archeologist Matthew Stirling, 124 00:06:37,620 --> 00:06:41,220 chief of the Smithsonian’s Bureau of American Ethnology, 125 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,280 follows up on a report that had gone unexamined 126 00:06:44,370 --> 00:06:48,780 for more than 70 years, the discovery by a local farmer 127 00:06:48,870 --> 00:06:52,380 of an ancient megalithic sculpture. 128 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:57,150 Stirling’s investigation results in a remarkable find: 129 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,750 a giant stone head buried in the ground. 130 00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:03,090 It was the first in what, to date, 131 00:07:03,180 --> 00:07:06,060 has become a total of 17 such heads, 132 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,120 each weighing a staggering eight tons, 133 00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:13,260 and all estimated to be some 3,000 years old. 134 00:07:13,350 --> 00:07:16,410 It is a date which suggests that the heads were carved 135 00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:18,120 not by the Maya, 136 00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:22,890 but by an even older civilization, the Olmecs. 137 00:07:22,980 --> 00:07:24,600 STEPHEN JETT: The Olmecs, uh, 138 00:07:24,690 --> 00:07:27,480 they’re often called the mother culture of Mesoamerica. 139 00:07:27,570 --> 00:07:31,080 They are the first complex culture 140 00:07:31,170 --> 00:07:35,130 of any size and significance in that part of the world. 141 00:07:35,310 --> 00:07:38,100 ANDREW COLLINS: The Olmec people come into existence 142 00:07:38,190 --> 00:07:41,340 probably about 1400 BC 143 00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:46,560 in the Tabasco region of what is today Mexico. 144 00:07:46,650 --> 00:07:50,520 But then, very suddenly, you have the rise 145 00:07:50,610 --> 00:07:53,670 of a full-blown society and civilization. 146 00:07:53,850 --> 00:07:58,350 And the question becomes "Where did the Olmec come from?" 147 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,130 The controversy is that many of the beautifully carved statues 148 00:08:02,310 --> 00:08:05,820 and stelae seemed to show African men. 149 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,860 JETT: They appear to be not native to the New World, 150 00:08:10,950 --> 00:08:13,650 but are native to sub-Saharan Africa. 151 00:08:13,830 --> 00:08:16,980 This is not scientific physical anthropology, 152 00:08:17,070 --> 00:08:20,940 but just the appearance of these things is pretty suggestive. 153 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:26,160 NEWMAN: And they also show Chinese, Vietnamese, possibly Polynesian 154 00:08:26,250 --> 00:08:31,020 and even Caucasian people carved into solid rock. 155 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,630 So, there’s big mystery about the Olmecs. 156 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,500 CHILDRESS: Where are all these people coming from? 157 00:08:37,590 --> 00:08:41,010 Early archeologists were dumbfounded by all of these 158 00:08:41,190 --> 00:08:44,430 different racial characteristics 159 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,030 that we’re seeing in the Olmec figurines and statues. 160 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,080 Literally, people were coming from all over the world 161 00:08:52,170 --> 00:08:54,690 to Mexico at this time. 162 00:08:54,780 --> 00:08:56,760 And how did they do that? 163 00:08:59,010 --> 00:09:00,720 NARRATOR: Do the Olmec heads and artifacts 164 00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:03,510 present evidence that this ancient civilization 165 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,930 had its genetic origins not in South America, 166 00:09:07,020 --> 00:09:09,810 as many mainstream archeologists believe, 167 00:09:09,900 --> 00:09:14,220 but thousands of miles away, and on the other side of the Earth? 168 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:15,840 But how? 169 00:09:15,930 --> 00:09:18,450 Ancient astronaut theorists suggest 170 00:09:18,630 --> 00:09:21,150 the answer may be found after a careful examination 171 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,210 of a number of extraordinary Olmec artifacts 172 00:09:24,300 --> 00:09:27,090 found in La Venta, Mexico. 173 00:09:27,180 --> 00:09:30,780 TSOUKALOS: In La Venta, we have carvings 174 00:09:30,870 --> 00:09:35,100 that show the Olmecs in very bizarre scenes. 175 00:09:36,540 --> 00:09:39,960 One of them is this plumed serpent, 176 00:09:40,140 --> 00:09:43,290 this snake that appears to be floating in the sky, 177 00:09:43,470 --> 00:09:46,620 and then down below, you actually see a person 178 00:09:46,710 --> 00:09:51,120 sitting inside this flying snake. 179 00:09:51,300 --> 00:09:55,260 And so you have to wonder if somehow the Olmecs 180 00:09:55,350 --> 00:09:58,500 had access to aviation technology, 181 00:09:58,590 --> 00:10:01,380 and I personally think they did, 182 00:10:01,470 --> 00:10:05,790 because at the Museum of Natural History in New York City, 183 00:10:05,970 --> 00:10:08,580 there is a Olmec figurine. 184 00:10:08,670 --> 00:10:12,000 He is clearly wearing some type of a pressurized suit. 185

--> 00:10:41,160 Ancient astronaut theorists say yes, 193 00:10:41,250 --> 00:10:43,500 and believe the way they got there 194 00:10:43,590 --> 00:10:47,370 may not have been in ships, but across the skies, 195 00:10:47,460 --> 00:10:50,880 in extraterrestrially-designed spacecraft. 196 00:10:56,730 --> 00:10:59,520 NARRATOR: San Agustín, Colombia. 197 00:11:00,690 --> 00:11:04,650 March 27, 2019.

study a site that has baffled 201 00:11:13,470 --> 00:11:16,530 the scientific community for decades. 202 00:11:18,780 --> 00:11:21,300 Joining him is Hindu historian 203 00:11:21,390 --> 00:11:22,830

00:12:18,810 --> 00:12:20,160 they appear to be the work 228 00:12:20,250 --> 00:12:23,130 of the region’s earliest civilizations 229 00:12:23,310 --> 00:12:27,090 and are thought to date back as many as 2,000 years. 230 00:12:30,420 --> 00:12:32,220 So, this is the main gate here. 231 00:12:32,310 --> 00:12:36,090 We’ve got a bit of a walk through the jungle. 232 00:12:36,270 --> 00:12:40,140 And this is a very remote spot, even today. 233 00:12:40,230 --> 00:12:42,300 So high in the mountains. 234 00:12:42,390 --> 00:12:45,270 You wonder how people got to this site, 235 00:12:45,360 -->

00:12:55,620 NARRATOR: David Childress 239 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,860 has been researching this area for many years. 240 00:12:58,950 --> 00:13:01,740 He is convinced that many of the statues 241 00:13:01,830 --> 00:13:03,000 show strong connections 242 00:13:03,180 --> 00:13:04,710 to the Olmec statues 243 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,050 that were first discovered in Mexico 244 00:13:07,230 --> 00:13:09,840 more than 1,600 miles to the north 245 00:13:09,930 --> 00:13:12,270 in the 1800s. 246 00:13:13,620 --> 00:13:15,240 CHILDRESS: We know that the Olmecs 247 00:13:15,330 --> 00:13:18,570 were in Mexico and also in Central America, 248 00:13:18,660 --> 00:13:21,720 but evidence of the Olmecs in South America 249 00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:24,330 has been elusive until now. 250 00:13:24,510 --> 00:13:27,930 Here at San Agustín, we have that evidence. 251 00:13:27,930 --> 00:13:31,260 This would be one of the earliest Olmec sites 252 00:13:31,350 --> 00:13:32,700 because it’s thought 253 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:34,680 that San Agustín started 254 00:13:34,860 --> 00:13:37,650 as early as 3000 BC, 255 00:13:37,740 --> 00:13:40,530 and other Olmec sites in Mexico 256 00:13:40,710 --> 00:13:44,580 are only dated to around 1000 BC, 257 00:13:44,670 --> 00:13:47,370 so this is an extremely important site. 258 00:13:47,460 --> 00:13:49,350 What I really wanted to show you is, 259 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,690 what I think is Hindu things, 260 00:13:51,780 --> 00:13:53,940 -which are right over here. -Okay. 261 00:13:54,030 --> 00:13:56,640 -Wow! -NARRATOR: It is David Childress’ belief 262 00:13:56,820 --> 00:13:58,440 that the stone sculptures 263 00:13:58,530 --> 00:14:00,510 of the San Agustín Archeological Park 264 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,940 not only show strong similarities 265 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,730 to the Olmec carvings found in Mexico, 266 00:14:05,820 --> 00:14:08,610 but also show even more profound connections 267 00:14:08,790 --> 00:14:11,490 to Hindu carvings and artwork found in India 268 00:14:11,580 --> 00:14:13,200 and Southeast Asia. 269 00:14:13,290 --> 00:14:15,630 I think you’ll be interested in this. 270 00:14:15,810

in these temples. 278 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:57,480 This is amazing because I’ve never seen anything like this 279 00:14:57,570 --> 00:15:00,540 in South America. 280 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,420 What’s really interesting to me, 281 00:15:03,510 --> 00:15:07,020 is that the main deity is shown with fangs. 282 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:11,070 That’s typical of South India; 283 00:15:11,160 -->
