Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

When you imagine all those conversations that Greek and Roman politicians must have been having with each other when both their lives

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh

lives are on the line politically, same thing's happening in the Olmec world.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

It's just we don't have a record of it.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

But must have been, you know, these aren't primitive people to be able to erect.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh

So those megalithic heads come from 100 kilometers as the bird flies.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh

Or as the crow flies away.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh

And they have to be transported, they think, possibly through the Gulf Coast a little bit, down into the Coetskalkos River, over swamps and down through valleys and stuff.

And they've never been able to figure out how big the boats had to be to transport them.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh

There was this nautical engineer that worked with Maya Exploration Center, which is the center that I'm a part of.

And he created this algorithm thing where you could put in the hypothetical size of your Olmec head and the hypothetical size of the raft that it would be sitting on.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

And if you put in the hypothetical size of, say...

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

If you created a raft that was too long to be able to go down the narrow stretches of the river that they would be moving these heads down, and you put a five-ton head on that raft, it would flip the raft and sink it.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

But the smallest head is six tons and the largest head is 50 tons.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

Yeah, so it's just, you have, yes, 50.

And so you have all these mysteries that are so similar to Egypt, but most people don't talk about it or know anything about it.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

You never hear anything about the old ones.

Yeah.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

Yeah.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

Well, and, and some of the main ones are, are, I think, um, I think they're about three.

Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Luke Caverns on Lost Civilizations of the Amazon + Why They Burned Alexandria

Yeah.
