Celtic settlement in Iceland
Norse settlement in the Azores (ok I don't believe in this one)
>For me, it's the Phoenicians circumnavigating Africa for Pharaoh Necho II.
Why would the Phoenicians circumnavigate Africa for the Egyptian pharaoh anyways??
>Celtic settlement in Iceland
The Vikings that settled Iceland took slaves and concubines from Scotland and Ireland. Especially women from Scotland.
A third of their genes and 62% of their maternal genes is Celtic.
>Pacific Islanders sailed to America
There are South American tribes with Melanesian and Australian genetics..
Polynesians traded with South America and share common words for sweet potatoes which they brought over from the Andes and began cultivating across their islands.
>Japanese sailed to America
The Japanese weren't a long-distance seafaring people. They weren't going anywhere beyond the West Pacific. They were largely isolationist in terms of trade, and it's not like overfishing was a thing yet for them to sail farther for their catch either.
Japanese fisherman veering off course into California and Mexico is very common. The gyres that helped Columbus along are also present in the Pacific
Pic related is from when rubber ducks spilled in the pacific. They were naturally carried to California

these, it turns out, are more likely just basal traits that survived in very isolated amerindian populations, rather than resulting from contact. does not rule out the possibility of contact but it's not really evidence for it
This has already been proven. there is both historical records and archelogical finds that prove that the Papar (communities of irish ascetic monks) were living in Ireland before the norse.
the Papar were also most likely responsible for the findings in azores. Since those 5-beta-stigmasterol samples date to just before the viking age of discovery and there are legends of irish monks sailing out into the atlantic to discover new islands that might be based on truth. Not as much evidence for this but since hermit monks don't leave much in the way of material culture and also don't produce offspring it would explain how they disappeared without record.
I don't believe it but the theories of dierk lange and his schizophrenia regarding connections between the ancient middle east and west africa are interesting.
Ancient Astronaut theory and humans originating from Mars and/or another star system
Mars having civilizations in the past
explain in a little more detail why you believe this.
I agree some of the stuff on Ancient Aliens is fake, but so many cultures that are physically separated for thousands of years have similar myths and similar descriptions of beings that were in contact with them.
Astronauts have a circadian rhythm that exactly aligns with the length of a Martian day. The Cydonian "face" still looks like vaguely a face even with NASA's attempts to obscure it in high-res images and there are other unnatural shapes like the 5-sided pyramids.
To be fair the cydonian face might be just a case of the human tendency to see faces were there aren't. But please continue. i can see what you mean with the similar mythologies.

Not necessarily. There may have been a ship or several blown of course. It’s very likely and has happened many times. Vikings never documented “it” really, just that there was a place called Vinland and we suspect it was somewhere on Canada based on archeological evidence

You do realize this means absolutely nothing.
We are talking about river boats being sent into the fricking open Ocean,
they all died.
You do realize what the point of this thread is, right? It’s for hypothetical situations, you bitterly angry virgin
100 years before Columbus, a king says he knew people who sailed that same way and never came back. Of course they could have crashed and died; or they very easily could have made landfall. We will never know
> You do realize what the point of this thread is, right? It’s for hypothetical situations, you bitterly angry virgin
Yes, hypothetical in the sense that they could have happened.
Not idiotic ideas that surely would not have possibly happen.
> 100 years before Columbus, a king says he knew people who sailed that same way and never came back.
Yeah, because they drowned.
Do you have any fricking idea how many European ships are recorded as sailing into the Atlantic never to be heard off again throughout the centuries before Columbus lol?
The difference being that Europeans understand that those people drowned, and don't invent imbecile fantasies with no mind behind it.
> Of course they could have crashed and died; or they very easily could have made landfall. We will never know
They did crash and die, there is no could have.
They did not make landfall, if they did, they did so somewhere along the African coast up north, because that is how the winds and currents take you, and you have no chance of breaking off either without very good ships and sails.
> We will never know
We do know.
Just like we know what happened to The Terror ships, despite never hearing from them after or finding evidence; they fricking froze or drowned to death.
You know that there's a current flowing from Africa to America, making the voyage significantly more likely? While in Europe the current flows away from America?

Not only is that story a second hand record, we have no evidence of the expedition's fate. Native populations do not posses the genetic evidence that would suggest african interaction, nor have african goods been found in the Americas. Perhaps there's some isolated carribean island out there with the evidence we're missing, but we haven't found anything concrete
Vikings never documented “it” really, just that there was a place called Vinland and we suspect it was somewhere on Canada based on archeological evidence
That's documentation enough to give us a solid idea of who came there, how they came there, why they were there, and why vinland failed
>No it’s not
Do a basic google search of "Polynesians South America". There are countless articles about it. It's not even a niche theory, it's universally accepted among academics.
Do you know where the Easter Islands are? It's halfway between South America and Polynesia. The Polynesians were island hoppers. They sailed long distances and took breaks on islands in-between. It's not just some aimless journey where they're stuck on a boat until they landed on SA.
>Japanese fisherman veering off course into California and Mexico is very common. The gyres that helped Columbus along are also present in the Pacific
That's TODAY not hundreds or thousands of years ago. Based on the dates in your image, they weren't using wooden boats but were using modern boats with motors and whatnot.
Japanese sailors back then were unlikely to have even sailed far enough into international waters that they would even be in a position to be pushed by wind or currents into the Americas. What scenario would bring them that that far? They weren't trading with anybody besides China and Korea, and overfishing was not yet a thing which is what causes fishing boats to have to sail farther nowadays.

Then theoretically it's possible Muslim Africans ended up the same on the east coast Americas. Some speculate Brazil could be a landing zone.
Funny thing about Brazil: we have found completely distinct aborigine genetic groups in the amazon, unrelated to all the other surrounding native tribes
We have not found African genetic groups
How the FRICK did the aboriginals get there when the Africans didn't
Care to elaborate?
>Southern native Americans split from northern ones around 16,000 years ago, the results suggest, and reached South America not long afterwards.
>The genomes reveal many more details about this process. For instance, it appears some previously unknown group split away from northern native Americans at some point and then moved into South America around 8000 years ago, long after the initial migration.
>But the study also adds to a big mystery: some groups in the Amazon are somewhat more closely related to the Australasians of Australia and Papua New Guinea than other native Americans are. The genomes show this “Australasian signal” is more than 10,000 years old. So where did it come from?

I don't care if it's a journal, I don't believe this shit until I see it being corroborated more.
As it stands it makes no fricking sense and it's suspect, can they point out to uniparentals that shoudn't be here according to the classic theory of colonization of the Americas? Or ANY archeological signs of the previous pre-Amerindian wave?
>That's TODAY not hundreds or thousands of years ago.
It was literally hundreds of years ago though
>from the early 17th century to the mid-19th century several dozen Japanese ships are known to have been carried from Asia to North America along the powerful Kuroshio Currents.

>The ship, without a mast or a rudder, was carried across the northern Pacific Ocean by currents. It drifted for 14 months, during which the crew lived on desalinated seawater and on the rice of their cargo.[3] Several crew members died of scurvy; only three survived by the time they arrived at Cape Alava, the westernmost point of Washington's Olympic Peninsula, in 1834.
Who is to say that didn't happen pre-Columbus? That is the point of this thread, homosexual
Japanese or chinese ships are known to have wrecked on the American pacific north west coast. The natives were found to have iron artifacts from these wrecks. Its unknown if anyone survived but I would imagine if they did long enough to breed it would be written in the genetic record and I dont know of any suggestion that it is.
I dont *actually* believe it but I think the "Carthaginians fled to America" is pretty fun to consider. Imagine being so scared of Rome you frick off to Brazil in a galley.
>Its unknown if anyone survived but I would imagine if they did long enough to breed it would be written in the genetic record and I dont know of any suggestion that it is.
There's at least one person who survived the trip, and there's no reason to believe that was the only time it ever happened in history.
A handful of people washing up every other century won't really leave any genetic impact, though.
>A handful of people washing up every other century won't really leave any genetic impact, though.
It definitely would within small populations.
But the Pacific Northwest actually had a relatively large population. The abundance of food from the sea and rivers made them much more populous than other hunter gatherers.

Does this mean we can put an end to claims that West Africans had an inferior geography relating to sea travel?
Even if the story is real, not really. A rich empire could afford a lot of waste on a plan that doesn't succeed. That doesn't change the potential geographic basis for the lack of success.

Then what's stopping them from doing a DNA test then. There should be some overlap if remotely true.
No idea.
I've only heard it.

Besides the going theory with them is that a few survivors merging into the tribe and the tribe adopted parts of their language.

The key words are asseria, varvaria and daorson, but theres a bunch of other places
Dont forget that civilization likely developed writing thousands of years before the sumerians. i firmly believe civilization is older that we think, altought i dont think there was some lost advanced super civilization. Just some sumerian-egypt tier precursor civilizations that didnt left descendants for whatever reasons. We know from the Missisipi Culture that this can happen.
Forgot to post their writing system, my bad.
Mississipians DID leave descendents. The story of Red horn is well known and consistent on the mississipi area, as it always gas been
What happened to the mississipians is that none of their descendents wanted to keep record of their civilization. We don't even have oral histories like we do with other super tribes. For what ever reason, they rejected Cahokia after it's fall and wanted it forgotten
Yea that was what i meant. Instead of trying to preserve at least the techonology achievements of the the missisipians, their successors either couldnt or wanted, making the civilization lost.
Basically the opposed of the sumerians, whose civilization was LARPed by their successors/descendats for over 2000 years. Even when the memory of the actuall sumerians got lost

>Buddhism influenced early Christianity and directly influenced Gnosticism
We know for sure that Buddhist missionaries were active in the Mediterranean and had established communities in/around Alexandria. Since Alexandria was THE intellectual home of early Christianity/Gnosticism, it makes sense that the commonalities they share with Buddhism are not a coincidence.
>Christianity was originally a mystery religion
I think that Christianity started as a pretty typical mystery religion of the period. Most likely even what we would today call Gnostic in terms of theology. It only started to resemble modern Christianity after its interaction with messianic israelites in the Levant and later judaizers mutilated the Gospel of Marcion and suppressed the adherents of the original Mysteries of Christ that Gospel represented.
>Manichean texts still survive in western China but are being hidden as that the government does not seize and destroy them
This is pure internet rumor. But since western China was the last holdout for Manichaeism and it did continue to exist there as a practiced at-least into the 17th century. I think it is very possible that this could be correct. If those texts ever did get out and into the hands of scholars, we would basically have another nag-hammadi on our hands.
I personally wouldn't expect the persian schizo religion to tell you anything factual about rival faiths but it's not impossible something in them might be interesting.
Early Christianity was very much 'mysterious'.
Check out stuff like the Gospel of Mary.
Peter and Paul had a single view of Christianity that wasn't shared by all early Christians.
China have a long history of secret religious societies. It's more than plausible. But if they are good enough to hide from the efficent chink state persecution, then they will remain hidden by anyone else as long as they want, no matter how hard we try to find them
Basque/Irish/Bristol fishermen had stumbled upon America at least a couple of decades before Columbus.
>good enough to hide from the efficent chink state persecution
The hiding dosen't have to be on purpose even. It could be a Dunhuang Cave-like situation where there is a cache of Manichean texts abandoned in some obscure cave that only like 3 goatherders in Gansu know exists
>Basque/Irish/Bristol fishermen had stumbled upon America at least a couple of decades before Columbus.
This is already proven, or at least Basque presence is. There is also very strong evidence for Bristol fishermen to have fished along the coast of newfoundland. I have never heard of irishmen being in America before Columbus though
>This is already proven, or at least Basque presence is.
no it's not. it's a good possibility that is interesting, and because of that the possibility is repeated so often that it becomes treated as fact
Any sources on the fishermen? I've tried searching but nothing's come up.
Regarding the Basque, the earliest I can see is in the 1510s.
Solutrean Hypothesis is real
Medieval Indians reached New Zealand.
There's already genetic and archeological evidence to suggest a tiny one-way sea migration from South India to Australia around 2000 BC. But I also think one of the big South Indian maritime empires (Chola?) could've reached sometime between 1000-1500 AD. The main evidence is pic rel, a ship bell with Tamil writing on it discovered in 1836. Used by Maori to boil vegetables. The specific phase/stage of script used here seems to indicate something in the 1300's

The sea peoples were running from the indo-europeans , and were the previous owner of Italy, the balkans, and Hispania
Ancient Palestinians were sea peoples resettled on the border by the victorious Egyptians.
Basque are related to the sea peoples
The problem is one sea people is indeed confirmed to have been settled in Palestine (the Philistines). But for the scarse source we have of their original language before starting speaking aramaic like all their semitic neighboroods, it seems it was a most likely IE language.
Since the sea peoples were loose confederation of various ethnicities it's very likely some of them were Indo-european, but probably not all them.

>Real name of the Hebrew God cannot be said. Maybe in fear of egyptian repercussion because it was "Aton"?
Except that is was originally spoken. It's written right there in the OT יהוה, and we still vocolize the shortened form in names like Elijah (Eli-yah) and words like Hallelu-yah.
The name of God is YHVH, it's just that Akhenaten received a direct revelation from God before God revealed his name to Moses and to the Israelite peoples.
Ra represented the sun itself, before Atenism the Aten was the solar disk. Its obvious if you listen to the Hymn to the Aten ( https://youtu.be/wFfLK2pmMnw ) that the Aten or solar disk was a proxy Akhenaten used to describe the nature of God. Also interesting is that the Aten clearly represents not just the solar disk but Light itself which lines up with scripture
4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
John 1:4-5
12 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
John 8:12
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
Genesis 1:3
It is likely Akhenaten was the Phaorah who put Jacob and the Israelites into positions of power (likely to be his new priestly caste instead of the old polytheism demon worshippers). Akhenatwn dies early, his young son Tutankhaten takes the throne but also dies early on, but yields more control over to the old priest cast (he changes his name to Tutankhamun during his reign). The last member of this Dynasty, Ay also takes the throne but it's dethroned by the Pharoah Horemheb who begins a campaign of persecution against Atenism and the Israelites, culminating in a planned systemic genocide which results in the Exodus. This is the Pharaoh whose heart is hardened and who chases the Israelites through the desert.
During this time attemps were made to erase Atenism and Akhenaten from the historical record. The Israelites were Atenists who being loyal to the Creator are gifted his guidance and His name is revealed to them.
I don't think the timeline would line up for that.

No need to start sperging, both can be readily appreciated. I might like muh piles of sardinian stones and bronze figurines a little more but cornwall tin was important and so was the ambar trade. I assume you are also a horned helmet enjoyer.
Why do you believe that mythological Atlantis was there? What was written in that diary?
>Politics post WWII is all about money, nothing else
Not a theory, more of a fact.
was a buddhist/Yogi
Why do you believe this?
The last 2 are just obvious facts though
did not buy back Königsberg in the 80s because they did not want to be flooded with ethnic russians
one Soviet/Russian general-diplomat made a suggestion in that direction towards a German diplomat. It wasn't exactly fully official, and it's doubtful whether Russia was actually willing to do that. The German side made clear that it wasn't interested, but not because it was filled with ethnic Russians, rather because the other 3 powers (US, UK, France) likely wouldn't have agreed, and reunification was much more important than getting back the northern part of former East Prussia, which was now inhabited by Russians anyway.
Here's an article about the story that (translate it with deepl.com): https://magazin.spiegel.de/EpubDelivery/spiegel/pdf/70569479
What if Necho II find sea route to Taiwan and Japan?
That Coptic is extinct.
It's not extinct, you dumb fricks at Wikipedia!
People still learn and speak the language!
I mean, it doesn't sound like it'd be too hard. If supplies ran dry they could just anchor off the coast and have somebody row onto the mainland to get supplies. Or maybe I'm just moronic and that wouldn't have worked.
I believe people were more advanced during the ice age than we think. Not mega-city floating crystal tier. But maybe a handful of small towns/hillforts scattered around
Almost all ancient history is riddled with propaganda. Not fake, just heavily distorted. Like Alexander jumping into a citadel solo-ing dozens of mooks before being heroically saved at the last moment.
The Trojan War characters were based off real people, whose deeds were heavily mythologized through the ages morphing into the characters we know.

How do you know this didn't happen? Why does everyone assume that anything surprising that happened in history must necessarily be hyperbole or a straight out lie? Merkle was right when he said, "This is the burden of the scholar, the need to scratch through the gilding that obscures the stories of history’s heroes, to lay open the ugly truth of ulterior motives, vainglorious pride, and bad breath. But sometimes the heroes of history are truly worthy of the golden reputations they carry. Sometimes the truest retelling of the story is permeated with hero worship."
You ever been in a fight? You are fricked against a dozen guys surrounding you. Now give them spears, bows and swords. And make them a 100.
The Skeleton Coast would have literally rekt their shore-hugging fishboats tho.
