Default Ancient Civilizations Of The Americas

Due to the timing of changing schools as a child I never in fact had the chance to study the Ancien Civilizations of the Americas. More specifically the continent of South America. I am of course speaking of the Inca, Aztec, Mayan, Olmec ect.

So as it is of interest to me I have often endevoured to educate myself in this subject.

This is a good documentary I found -
Part 1


Part 2


Part 3


Part 4


Part 5


Part 6


I hope someone at least may share my common interest. I have made similar posts in the past without much response but hey, that's ancient history in GT terms We have all grown a little since then and mabey you may appreciate this kind of thing more So if you have a lazy evening and there's crap all on T.V, watch this.

I've always loved history on the Mayans/Incas etc ever since we started learning about them in Elementary school.

I'm sure there are some factual inaccuracies, but this was a cool movie.

I'm interested in knowing how the Egyptians found the island, and how they built that fancy statue.

I'm amazed at the architecture of the Ancient Egyptians and the Greeks. Even things like Stone Hedge are insanely impressive. And the mythical cities of Atlantis and the rumored hanging gardens of Babylon.

The Egyptians were geniuses. And they had good slave labor.

If I had a time machine Babylon would be a stop before I went to check out the Dinosaurs.
