Just A Small Taste Of Real History (Documentary 2012)
Try and watch this one to the very end to get the full picture. A lot of people are confused to 'real' history due to the school curriculum. So take a listen and see if this resonates with you and if you don't believe a word that they are saying, look it up using European sources. Check out these brothers at the 'House of Consciousness' and Blacknews101. A big shout out to Sa Neter, Natural Tahuti, Professor Larry and minister Enqi. Also contains a nice freestyle by Loaded Lux. William Cooper and Ill Bill also feature at the end. Not what you usually learn (Henry the 8th, 1066 etc) which is, of course, very recent european history.
Graham Hancock's "Quest For The Lost Civilization"
In this set of three videotapes, writer Graham Hancock traverses the world and explains his controversial theory that an ancient civilization, highly intelligent people who sailed the planet as early as 10,500 B.C., spread advanced astronomical knowledge and built ancient observatories. Skeptics may scoff, but Hancock earnestly points out similarities in giant stone structures in the Egyptian desert and Cambodian jungles, and on Easter Island and in Micronesia, he points out what he considers evidence of an ancient society of seafarers. His ideas may seem utterly bizarre at first, but Hancock presents them in an understated and good-natured manner, and he also makes clever use of computer graphics and aerial photography to illustrate the startling similarities in ancient structures found from the North Atlantic to the South Pacific. Hancock raises some puzzling questions, and even if you don't buy his arguments, bolstered though they are by mathematical equations and astronomical diagrams, the Quest for the Lost Civilization is an entertaining mixture of archaeology, astronomy, and speculation
