There's something there with the DNA of the Olmec people that is definitely connected with something else that that you don't see if you go to the Maya realm that you don't see if you go to like Mexico City. They have something in their DNA. They have this very specific look about them. I don't know exactly what it is, but I'm like looking and I'm like this Olmec guy next to me.

So fascinating because it clearly could have been African explorers that made it. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you what. Could we look up โ gosh, look up the Traveler Olmec Monument if you would please, Jamie. It's the traveler. I want to call him... I think he's Monument 13. There's another one called Monument 19 that we should look at. But he's this man that's very clearly not... There we go.

Top left, the one that's on Reddit. In fact, this might be my post on Reddit. Yes, yes, sir. So this guy right here. All right. So this is really, really fascinating. So let's diagnose this. All right. So flags. Flags are invented. This is a very unknown fact.

Flags are invented, or the first place that we have evidence for it is along the Nile Valley on these pre-dynastic pots, which they're not the stone vases, but just like clay pottery. They would make little paintings on them. And people have these riverboats that have these flags on them, and the flags would say what city you had come from or what village you had come from.

And so flags are an old world thing. We don't have any evidence of flags in the new world. All right. He's also wearing a turban. He's got this big turban that's draping off the back of his head. And he very clearly has this distinct beard that's popping out. Now, Native Americans, sometimes they're Asiatic. They have Asian DNA. And Asians don't really grow typically.

Sometimes they'll grow the little stash and a little bit of a beard here, but they don't have that. big, thick beard that you would see, you know, like in Europe or along the Mediterranean in the Middle East. And so this guy has this big, thick beard and then he's got boots on his feet as well. And we think that these are these glyphs that you see to his left and right.

And these are really, really early Olmec glyphs. And they interpret that foot to the left as saying that he came from somewhere. He was a traveler. And so this The thought here is โ so this is around 900 BC, give or take, a little bit. They don't really โ they really have no idea when these are made. Like you go to all the monuments and it says made somewhere between 1500 BC and 400 BC.
