Who Really Discovered America? History Channel (Part 7)

[kvrc2424]

Any one just take a look at a mayan, inca or an aztec temple & tell its any different from our south indian temples.The gods that they worshiped were also similar.Lord ganesha's & lord vishnu's statues were excavated from current day Mexico ruled by Inca's.only the names were different.Todays world hides the truth.they know that we reached the Inca's r pure vegetarians just like south indian hindus.Just google & check out the pictures of inca temples & hindu temples & ul know it for ur selves..

[kvrc2424]

What about south indian cultre.The mayan, inca culture their temples are a stricking proof of south indian culture in the south america.The chola empire completely controled the south east asia before 1000 years.If polinesians could travell that far.Then it would be only a matter of time before cholas reached south america with their mighty fleet.The south indian style of stone architecture found in peru & bolivia are sound evidence of this.South american religions resemble hinduism in all ways

Clearly, Columbus didn't discover America because there were native people living in American long before he showed up!

Thing is our history is fully controlled by the sate, they don't like new facts

we are starting to find evidence that a meteorite splashed down of the cost of Britain in about 400, wiping out most of the life there. thing is a historian in wales was arrested for telling a new view of history, and now web pages about him have been removed

well.....

[trillz31]

at certain points in histroy the world was more international then alot of people want to believe.

[trillz31]

we're all human beings!! one group could make the same thing or something very similar in different parts of the world.

i fell this americas was a free station for trading,bartering, but the english rule got greedy and in seeing this wanted to put claim on americas to control the trade,thats where columbus came in at and the first so called settlers,

[roseforvendetta]

this was very intersting know that americas was a centural station for trade

[khaymen1]

I did like the idea of watching a documentary about who might have possibly been here before columbus and it is interesting to see the possiblities. But as a native american I am disappointed, where were the native anthropoligists and native scientists? Why didn't the people who created this documentary talk to any of us natives?

[khaymen1]

and why do the scientists they interview (who are always mainly white) always assume or have the attitude that us native americans could not possibly be intelligent or creative enough to have created any of the evidence that is found? And that the only possibility is that we were taught by a more advanced, smarter race? Do they really believe that we natives were that stupid?

[SE09uk]

@khaymen1 Put a nanative american or even a normal person and a scientist in the wild, see who survives. scientists live sheltered lives, they are clueless about the real life

[khaymen1]

if it is plausible that the japanese could make it to maldavia in that dinky little canoe it is just as possible that the maldavians or any of us other native americans could have made it to japan.

Great show. Really interesting stuff

[CerromeX]

What about the people from Mali Empire of Africa who used the currents to get to America around 1200-1300 AD

[bballgirlj955]

geez its like everything is connected some how...so who the hell discovered america?

[khaymen1]

@bballgirlj955 they answered this question in the first 5 minutes. It was us native americans. Didn't you notice how everytime they talked about the japanese, chinese, polynysian's, europeans, vikings, etc coming here that they "met and traded with people already there" which of course is us native americans.

[cozyfoxstudio]

They had to work Obama into it. LMAO.

[MaryAnnSilikaTonga]

CULTURAL DIVERSITY is true...but creating answers that provide CULTURAL HARMONY in the life & times of our ancestors is FAIR. I thank you for posting this valuable information. Life is GREAT. 

[sandrasynar]

damn, it was white supremist, no mention at all of the olmec heads, so obviously african, the currents could easily bring them...there is a whitewashing to mainstream history...i'm disappointed in this series..

[offline933]

@sandrasynar you are 100% right man, there is a whitewashing of mainstream history

[jstolesomething]

@sandrasynar There are some problems with the Olmec head theory though. Even if they were carved based on real people you have the problem that, though the features are common in African populations, really a person of any genetic background could look like that. For example the rulers of Hawai'i were called black African by Europeans though they were not. Polynesian features are very close to the Olmec heads, moreso than African features because of the eyelids. Just look at Queen Lili'uokalani.

[TheFatCampCrew]

@sandrasynar Why would they mention obama then? Stop speculating. Their conclusion had nothing to do with white supremacism. U do know that Polynesians are brown?

[saddat1965]

@sandrasynar There has been African artifacts found all over the Americas and no mention at all of them. Like you I am also very disappointed by this. This is the reason they can never get a definitive answer because they can`t get their lies straight. It`s no different than any other mysteries created by them. I have noticed a pattern that whenever a civilization or a people is supposedly unknown it turns out the people were of color...lol
