In this best-of-episode, I sit down with authors & explorers Hugh Newman & JJ Ainsworth to explore some of the strangest patterns in ancient history: the mysterious “handbag” symbol found in artwork across cultures, the worldwide legends of serpent worship, and the out-of-place artifacts that continue to raise questions. From ancient gods and sacred symbols to forgotten knowledge and lost civilizations, this episode takes a closer look at the clues that may connect civilizations across the ancient world. We’ll examine why similar symbols appear in places separated by oceans and thousands of years, and what these mysteries might reveal about humanity’s forgotten past.FOLLOW HUGH & JJ HEREJOIN ME ON A TOUR HERE
