Exploring Ancient Mysteries and Alternative Histories with Graham Hancock

In this episode, acclaimed author and researcher Graham Hancock joins me on the Illegitimate Scholar Podcast (Cannot believe I just typed that) delves deep into the discussion about ancient civilization, the legacy of shamanistic practices, and the vitriolic response of mainstream academia, specifically archaeology to his ideas. Hancock shares his thoughts on the limitations of archaeological interpretations and the potential for a lost advanced civilization that has left behind a significant legacy. The conversation also explores themes such as the importance of spiritual traditions, the loss of shamanism and spirituality in the West, the precision of ancient astronomical observations, and the position of psychedelics in human history. Hancock provides a comprehensive look at why questioning established narratives is crucial for a more inclusive understanding of our past
