Voices on ancient civilizations

Standout quotes from every episode that touches this concept.

"The power of nature and geology is really magical."
"I think that a lot of human evolution had to do with the pressures that their environment put upon them."
"I really think that the very first pyramids in Peru were about trash management."
"Ideas are more powerful than weapons, but archeology can’t see them at all."
"The apocalypse was very, very good to me."
"I am not claiming to have proved that. That is a hypothesis that I’m putting forward to answer some of the questions that I have about prehistory."
"The Younger Dryas impact hypothesis, YDIH for short, is not a lunatic fringe theory as its opponents often attempt to write it off."
"I think the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis, the notion that we’re looking at a debris stream of a fragmenting comet, and we can still see that debris stream because it’s still up there and we still pass through it twice a year, is the best explanation."
