Later than that. Landed right here. We're pretty close to where he might have landed. Didn't he land in St. Augustine? Well, he landed in St. Augustine first, but then he came up here, and the first place, Uvita, I think is actually at the top of Tampa Bay. The very northern part of Tampa Bay is where Uvita was. And he talks a lot about how the bay was difficult.
There's a park there called Fort DeSoto. I think that's it. I think that's it. That's where Uvita was.
He lands here and sends forces, leads forces up through central Florida. All the way up to where Tallahassee now – Tallahassee was the capital of the Apalachee civilization. He keeps going through Georgia. Two and a half years worth of a reign of death. An interesting thing about that particular moment in regards to the disease – I'm too far away –
When he gets up to South Carolina, and there's this big kingdom, Cofiticachi, led by this queen, he sees in the outer villages that bodies are piling up, and they're dead. They're diseased bodies, and they don't really know the queen's saying anything. Look, we don't have much corn because we have this crazy disease going around and farmers are dying.
And probably one of the reasons their army was depleted and couldn't fight DeSoto off as well is because there was a mass death. De Soto goes into the main temple in Cofetacachi and sees these tombs with big statues of warriors near them. But in one of the tombs, he finds Spanish artifacts. He finds metal. He finds like these glass beads and pearls.
And he knows he was like, where did you get these things? Where, you know. He was looking for gold and silver, but he finds these Spanish artifacts, and the queen tells him, well, there was a community of people that looked just like you guys that was on the coast, but they all died off. And we know that there was a Spanish failed colony somewhere up the coast like that.
And so those guys showed up like five years earlier and it was enough to spark the disease where by the time de Stoto got there, the temples of the local villages were piling up with bodies without explanation of how they died.
I have not heard that. And there are so many different crosses. Yeah. I get confused by it. I look on the Internet for like, you know, which one is the Knights Templar? And you get a panel of 50 different crosses. And it's like, oh, no, it's got to have the little hairs on the edge. It's got to be more square, not rectangular.
It's not there.
Right. But that is funny. I guess that goes along with the premise that this persistent idea like Oak Island has that somehow the Knights Templar came over here and hid all their treasures, including the Holy Grail. The funniest part of that would be that like, oh yeah, they liked those Europeans. Those Europeans were nice to them.
You know, I generally think that I would be murdered as some sort of devil immediately.
You know, I mean, I think my answer's changed over time.
Currently... I would go to Peru, either Cusco or Tijuana and try to watch how they put those buildings together. I would love to actually witness those temples that we can't figure out how tight the stones are actually built.
I would love that. But I would be hidden, like in a coat.
These recent things about aliens, the main reason I don't, I'm not buying this one either, is because we haven't fired up the war machine. That's exactly what humans will always do. Oh, look, foreigner. Murder them.
that's what we always do we don't we're not like oh gosh do you guys come in peace no we never come in peace we come to kick your ass right or take your stuff so that's that's exactly what if it was if the government actually thought there were aliens we'd be bombing the out of the ocean right now
Well, I guess those chess games could be playing out.
It's absolutely true that the coastline during a lot of human history was way out there. So the idea that there could have been major cities out there or just the evidence of people walking back and forth from one continent to another, absolutely that's on the table. And I hope that someday technology will be able to let us investigate those questions. Right now they're kind of a what-if moment.
Yeah, there's evidence of very, very ancient cities. I mean, if not the Ice Age, maybe just within a couple thousand years afterwards, right here off the coast in Florida. Huge cities in these mounds that are, I don't know, maybe several hundred feet off of where the modern day coastline is. Really? But when the coastline was lower, oh yeah. Florida's shelf is very shallow. Yeah.
What are you talking about? Well, you know, I say cities, but, you know, I just mean like settlements where they have these mounds that are built up and they've seen them off the coastline.
