Pseudoarchaeology sucks. Plain and simple. And with the advent of the internet and social media, things are only getting worse. Online conspiracists, pseudohistorians, and pseudoarchaeologists can quickly dissemninate false, often harmful distortions of history with a click of a button.
On 4th November 1999, BBC TWO broadcast Horizon: Atlantis Reborn, a documentary that looked at the pseudohistorical narratives promoted by Graham Hancock. The film does an outstanding job of debunking Hancock's various claims, and illustrates why we need sound scientific research and expertise to push back on pseudoarchaeology.
In this episode, your hosts watch the episode of Horizon, and provide a running commentary on the evidence presented by both sides.
