      There was a discovery of skulls in the town of Onavas in the state of Sonora México what made them inusual is were similar as the Inca culture (oval shape) 😮 which shows other cultures practiced besides mayan and Inca who practiced skulls modifications.

      Yeah its one of those unfortunate things. I think the Benin bronzes in particular are safer in the British museums, at least that way Nigerians can go to the UK and see them there. If they give them back to Nigeria the average Nigerian will have not chance of seeing them. I feel differently about the stone stolen from the Acropolis however, i think that should be returned and the British Museum should take some plaster casts if they like.

People can be born with sex characteristics (genitalia, reproductive organs, hormones) of both sexes. 1.7% of the population is intersex. We can say whatever we like about recent developments relating to gender and how people choose to label themselves but sex is hard to dispute.

    Bro they really questioning if people really make that giant wooden horse while we have a much more insane example of what people built back in the day. The pyramids of Egypt is the best case of they built some of the craziest stuff back in the day. And you'd think they couldn't make a giant wooden horse bruh

    WatchMojo, I love your content. But there are so many white men who have been named in this episode as a result of their discoveries. But the same courtesy has not been extended to the person who discovered Mohenjodaro. The employee of the Archaeological Survey of India (then run by the British colonisers) was an Indian gentleman named RD Banerji. Just wanted to give him the credit he deserves.

    The Antikythera Mechanism calculates motions of celestial bodies based on a Geocentric system, with the Sun circling the Earth.. Aliens would not have been so patronizing as to create such a device reflecting such a mistake. Rather, they would have told the Greeks the truth, and built their device to reflect it.

    Yes, it’s a noble idea to return artifacts to their rightful place BUT not when those places are ill equipped to care for and safeguard them. It does no justice to allow priceless items to be vulnerable to modern day looters only to either be destroyed or to be sold to the highest private bidding, never to be seen in public again. Therefore, curated collections must remain in the possession of those able to protect them best until such time as it is safe to return them.
    For example, Egypt & Rome are extremely close to being able to safely have a significant portion of their antiquities back and every country in the world that is holding them now needs to start letting them go…..they don’t belong outside of their homeland and it upsets the balance the longer they are missing!
    The case is the same with the majority of the US’s Native American artifacts. They need to be returned to their rightful tribes.
    India, Cambodia, China and New Zealand are also in good positions to take back their items too. Peru, Hawaii, Indonesia, New Guinea, Aboriginal, etc. have a ways to go yet but are making great strides thanks to tourism dollars!!
