This is an excellent interview with Hopi tribal official Stewart B. Koyiyumptewa, which includes discussion about the impacts AA, and Hancock's claims more broadly, have on Hopi and other Indigenous nations. "These false narratives affect living cultures."

As per always, use the Oxygen of Amplification to recognize outrage farming and learn how to not fall into its trap. Like, for ex., you see a relatively calm trailer for a show, but it's accompanied by antagonistic promotional tweets - that's a tactic! datasociety.net/library/oxygen…

Baalbek 🇱🇧 is in the news for more than just #pseudoarchaeology this week as Israeli bombs land less than a kilometer from the temples, killing civilians living nearby.

As we reach the year anniversary of the intensification of the genocide of Palestinians, I want to once again highlight the silence of some major archaeology organisations. For context, I’ll recommend Chloë Emmott’s blog post on the discipline’s complicity: chloeemmott.uk/2023/10/17/pal…

One year on, we reaffirm our statement on the Palestinian Genocide. We call for our fellow archaeologists to use their skills, knowledge, and networks to act against state violence. blacktrowelcollective.wordpress.com/2024/01/22/btc…

I'm on Vancouver Island this week for an anniversary trip with Pat and not for research purposes. And yet. . . there are Brother XIIs everywhere for those with the eyes to see 🙏

Should real archeologists appear on pseudo-archeological TV shows like Ancient Aliens and Ancient Apocalypse? archeothoughts.wordpress.com/2024/10/11/sho…

Born in 1831, Helena "Madame" Blavatsky pioneered the New Age grift, plagiarizing her books while claiming to be channeling the “Masters of Ancient Wisdom”. From julian walker's Patreon series on the roots of conspirituality. conspirituality.net/episodes/deep-…

I had a great time chatting with Julian and Sean about archaeology and pseudoarch's appearances in unsavoury places, and *that* chapter that made a man so angry after not reading it that he suggested starting a revolution 🙌

đź’Ż Don't waste your time. You can offer advice, support & resources, but never debate. Theorists aren't defending an idea, they're defending what feels right to them. They NEVER debate fairly bc they are defending their theorist existence. It's all they have.

This is an insightful look at Foster Coulson and his conspiritual grifts. Including The Wellness Company, which I've seen advertised many times in videos by a prolific pseudoarch content creator/outrage farmer who runs in the same circles as many mentioned here.
