About this listen

What if the world used to be bigger? In this cinematic exposé from Cold Logic, host Silas Gray uncovers the ancient and Renaissance maps that reveal entire continents and islands erased from modern history. From the ice-free coastline on the Piri Reis Map, to the mysterious disappearance of Frisland, Hy-Brasil, and Terra Australis, this episode explores how forbidden geography was systematically removed from the narrative. We investigate:
  • Cartographic anomalies dismissed as "errors"
  • Maps from China, the Islamic Golden Age, and the Vatican's secret vaults
  • Modern suppression of phantom islands and erased coastlines
  • The role of colonization and geopolitics in redrawing the world

Are these lands lost to time—or hidden by design?
