      @@caseysmith544 I doubt these were just art work to fill up blank ocean space. Good point. The existence of the big squid wasn't really recognized until recent history, at least this is what I remember and I also remember trying to find out info on it and couldn't. Until I was in Sarasota and saw one that wasn't huge, but it wasn't that little guy either.

    While these old maps are not as accurate as modern ones, I think it is interesting that they are so accurate. An interesting video would be on how ancient explorers drew such accurate maps since they had no aerial view at all.

    Quick correction. The first two maps DO NOT represent the Tenotchitlan of the Aztec Empire and the Quzco of the Inca Empire, but the Tenotchtitlan and Quzco of the Spanish Empire; the same cities during the hispanic period . And you can see it from the architecture and also because of the year it was done, decades after the conquests.

    • @mera6555
      @mera6555 4 місяці тому +1

      Idk about the image of Tenochtitlan, but the one of Cusco is based on Pedro Sancho's description of Incaic Cusco, he was with Pizarro when they entered the city and he wrote the first detailed account of how the city looked like, specifically at the time of the Incas. However the image in question was made decades later in Europe, based on Sancho's account (because this was pretty much the only detailed description of Cusco for a very long time, even long after it was conquered), the image was made by someone who never saw the city in question, so he drew Sasayhuaman's three rows of megalithic walls and the city's "fence" (that Sancho describes around Cusco, maybe like something seen in Machu Picchu) like European walls, etc.

    Very nice video. You missed a very nice detail on the map shown around 9:20 though :) Japan is shown horizontally, in stead of vertically. This is because the Dutch had to go of Chinese map (which showed it as seen from mainland China and not orientated northward). The Dutch were told that they'd lose all access to Deshima (the only international trading town in Japan) if they circumnavigated Japan.

    Another interesting feature is that the name of the seen portion of the continent is named "America", not "South America" or "Suramerica". That´s because the name América was given to the whole continent, from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego. But sadly this name has been appropriated by the USA. It is also quite interesting that "Chile" is a small region that does not Include Patagonia. This is a nice document against the recurrent and false complaint of chileans that Argentina stole Patagonia from them

      That's not just all they had. But if we are to believe history, it would have been by explorers, fur trappers and soldiers riding on steam boats or horses. These places weren't empty either, they could have just asked the thousands who lived in Montana at the time. Keep asking and researching and you will find your answers. Custer took a train to Bismarck, North Dakota in 1876 and if you study what happened at the Little Big Horn you would think they had few maps and had never been there before. They give us one paddle boat but even that one doesn't seem to know where to "ferry" the men and how long it should take. However the wounded and higher ups did steam back to Bismarck in record time.

    Early Antarctica maps basically prove we've been lied to, for a loooong time.

      Early Antarctica maps were a guess because it was a common belief in western Europe that there was some land mass at the bottom, but no one saw it, atleast that we know, till the late 1800s

    That Ziphus monster looks like the American flag, I know there's two monsters there but still, if you hadn't said owl head, I would of thought it was an Egale head 😅

    I got a question... Is there a scientific reason the continents seem to balance themselves out over the globe?
    I mean, suppose Antarctica was not there. Then that means the center of mass of the earth would be slightly further north. This would make the ball of water that covers the earth shift just as much northward. This would then thin out the above-water northern continents, and since the ball of water is now further northward, maybe even some of the south pole floor, where you previously took away the antarctica landmass, now shows up as dry land (since the would-be southern-most edge of the now-more-northern water ball is now Below(further north of) where the southpole land extent is now), thusly RE-balancing out the dry lands across the world.
    The same affect you can see would occur no matter Where you removed or added extra land to.
    Does anyone know if the above logic holds up accurately, scientifically?
