Olmec Stone Heads - Ep 103

Pseudo-Archaeology ·

2022/11/09

Do the Colossal Stone Heads of the Olmec prove that Africans came to the New World thousands of years ago? Of course not!

Pseudo-Archaeology ·

2022/09/28

The 130,000-year-old Cerutti Mastadon site in San Diego is a place where you can definitely find mastodons, but were people there at the same time?

The Piri Reis Map - Ep 101

Pseudo-Archaeology ·

2022/09/14

This is the map that proves that ancient civilizations with technologies far beyond our own were able to visit Antarctica back when it was warm there. Wait, are you saying you don’t believe me? Well good for you! This map doesn’t do any of that stuff. It’s still pretty cool on its own though.TranscriptsFor rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archpodnet.com/pseudo/101Contact Kinkella Teaches Archaeology (Youtube) Blog: Kinkella Teaches Archaeology ArchPodNet APN Website:

Pseudo-Archaeology ·

Kinkella Visits "The Thing" - Ep 98

Pseudo-Archaeology ·

2022/08/03

Welcome to one of the creepiest nights of my life. Alone on a desert highway one evening in 1998, I decided to pull over into a deserted parking lot. The parking lot belonged to a large storage building which had a huge sign on the front proclaiming that it housed "The Thing." Against my better judgement, I walked in...TranscriptsFor rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archpodnet.com/pseudo/98LinksThe Thing TodayContact Kinkella Teaches Archaeology (Youtube) Blog: Kinkella

The Crystal Skull of Belize - Ep 97

Pseudo-Archaeology ·

2022/07/20

We've all heard of "The Crystal Skulls," but this crystal skull in particular is near and dear to my heart. Found in Belize in the 1920s, the mystery and intrigue surrounding the attempt to keep this find "authentic" is much more interesting than the forgery itself!TranscriptsFor rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archpodnet.com/pseudo/97LinksCrystal Skull ArticleContact Kinkella Teaches Archaeology (Youtube) Blog: Kinkella Teaches Archaeology ArchPodNet APN Website:
