In this first of four posts Jason Colavito takes issue with the notion that a comet strike almost 13,000 years ago extinguished advanced ancient civilizations. He also mentions a contact by the producers of the new In Search Of series made about his appearing as a “dissenting voice” on the subject of Atlantis. With The First Effort to Identify Atlantis with the Sea Peoples Jason bursts that appearance bubble, then reproduces an interesting section from an 1886 academic article. With Fringe Writer Claims Spectacular Bronze Age Gem is Secret Astrological Image Colavito is withering about an attempt to connect a gorgeous Mycenaean age agate carving with a really lost civilization. And with Review of “Ancient Giants: History, Myth, and Scientific Evidence from Around the World” by Xaviant Haze Colavito takes swings at Haze’s theory, his research methodology, and his apparent inattention to copyright issues.
