You guys familiar with the work of Martin Swetman?
No, I'm not.
He's the one that โ he was on Ancient Apocalypse Season 1 for a minute.
He's the guy who made basically a star map of that Pillar 43.
And in his opinion, those three handbags at the top were three sunrises.
And if that's the case, that would almost make sense because then like a picture of an Assyrian holding that would be like a holding of astronomical knowledge.
Like this symbol could have been a symbol of knowledge of astronomy, which is one thing honestly about Gobekli Tepe.
Dr. Martin Swetman, his first paper on Gobekli Tepe's Pillar 43, he's got Scorpio on the bottom.
He believes that's Sagittarius, that that's the sun.
Basically, it's a star map denoting the time that the comet smacked the Earth is what he believes.
Each one of those Vs, his latest paper on it, each one of those V symbols is a day.
In his opinion, each one of those boxes is a month.
And there is basically a full year denoting the whole thing, the way he's broken.
That's very interesting stuff.
Interesting.
And one of the things that's wild to me, when we talk about the lack of further excavations, is almost every pillar we bring up has new symbols, new iconography.
If we're trying to find some sort of ancient proto-language or something, we need more symbols.
We need more things on Earth.
And that's completely opposed by the mainstream archaeology.
