  1. The title of this documentary is "The Real History." It begins by allowing that the first humans on the (currently American) continent, the first to colonize the continent, may have emerged from the "earth, water, sky, or land below." This did not happen. Human beings do not emerge from earth, water, sky or "land below." It is better for humanity that we set aside superstition, seek knowledge that is evidence-based and embrace reality.

  2. Indigenous peoples were warring raiding, and overtaking other tribes territory for hundreds of years, with great natural knowledge, about the land that was ripe for conquest by other "developing" peoples!! The tragedy would have been to remain suspended in that "primordial" situation, without advancing in knowledge and understanding that took advantage of the greatest natural resource on the face of planet Earth!!

  3. Just wanted to say, I was shocked to hear a documentary about the Americas before European colonization refer to the Levant 20,000 years ago as "Israel". Deeply offensive to myself, and other Palestinians like myself.

  4. If you desire to know truth where your people came from READ THE BOOK OF EITHER IN THE BOOK OF MORMON. These were the first peoples leaving Jerusalem area because of a wicked king. God directed them to the shores South of Saudia Arabia where there was a big forest to build barges. God caused a giant storm which blew their barges to the Americas. The Book of Mormon talks about their life in the Americas and the wars they had here. Please read it!

  5. Some fruit cake tells you Christopher Columbus discovered Americas. He did not – He was lost!! Only misguided people try to tell he found America, and people fell for it. Listen to God!

  6. The story should be true but, I can't get past the looks of the indigenous. It's time for the total truth to be revealed as the beings in the beginning were of a darker hue. Don't inner stand why we can't get all the facts right when the science does. They've found some of the oldest bones in Brazil pre dating Mayan and Azteca and the Skull turned out to be that of a negro. Predating the so called Indians who were originally neuro as well . It's 2022 and it's time to get back to the true beginning and maybe we can change things for the better. Time to leave all lies and deception alone.

  7. It is interesting that in creation stories, told by various peoples around the world, it is described that there is water all around. So water is the carrier of life. Not land, not air. Life uses water to spread itself. Water is life. There can be no life as we know it where there is no water. Human life spreads via water, but other lifeforms too. To not wander off, let's stick to the Pacific situation. Take lifeform the coconuttree. It grows seeds in containers that are capable to float in water for thausands of kilometers. And when they wash up in the for that sprcies liveable environment, the container gives way and the seed continues the cycle of life. Until we figured out how to master enough energy to suspend or bend the force of gravity to serve us instead of limit us, water was the most energy efficient way to enable us to spread ourselves over vast distances while stay alive all the way. That is, only under life supporting circomstances, among of which the container in which we traveled. Coconuts travel from one continent to another using the Pacific. Humans did so too. – 🙂 Culture of our present time limits the acceptance of our imaginatation as a valid part of our memory. Instead, imagination is assigned to fictional fantasy. This effect contributes hugely to the way we imagined(!) the America's got populated. Scientist have an extra handicap: claim to fame. Some are willing to bend the truth so that they reach fame where that would not happen if they stuck to the factual truth. Ignoring unfavourable facts is one bending instrument. Egoism is another handicap. So there you have a history of our history. In a nutshell… 😅

  8. This documentary somewhere close to the beginning said we don't know the reason or the meaning of the cause of why the indigenous people decided to take the treacherous journey over here how are they indigenous here when they had to come here from somewhere else not here you can't be indigenous to a land that you were not born on . That'd be like saying the indigenous people of planet Earth came here by spaceships from planet Mars they wouldn't be indigenous to planet Earth they would be indigenous to the planet Mars just for example there

  9. It's not known how many indigenous people arrived in the Americas by water exact words for the second time these people that arrived by water we're not indigenous to the Americas they were indigenous to whatever they came from and were born at.

  11. I need to check in the Arctic like in the northern polar regions of the Antarctic I thought we were dealing with people that migrated over here to the Americas and the Arctic circle in Antarctica it's not in the continents of the America what are they talking about

  12. Why is it North America South America and Central America when there are islands that are also part of the Americas thus the continents of the Americas and not the continent of America again not reference sing what is to what isn't do we live in America or the Americans live in the United States of America being Americans in the northern part of the Americas not of the northern part of America like Southern part of the continents of the Americas there is the culture of people that live there they don't live in southern part of America it's plural because we have land that is literally surrounded by water in parts of our region that are still apart of the Americas thus making the land masses plural instead of one land mass as singular and these was very well put together supposedly and you guys are learning this in reference frame debt college and degrees.

  13. Eric in the middle of east of Mesopotamia the ancient Sumerian culture that cradle of civilization the very first and oldest written language and community that had seemingly popped out of the UN technological era out of nowhere and had the know how to plow and irrigate and had trade and the very first alphabetical written language that since paper didn't exist then they imprinted into clay and then bake them so they weren't so easily destroyed where the mathematical Dewey decimal system originates from there's a base 60

  14. These so called indigenous people didn't lie great from somewhere else and come over here and just become indigenous to the land that they just arrived on it would have been a whole generation of the group of immigrants that came here from wherever they're indigenous to that had came here procreated and had children the next generation of the society that they are cultivating and the Land there colonizing thus being not indigenous to the land but their children would have been let's get this straight people just like us people born here today in the northern half of the continents of the Americas not the Northern or Northern America are indigenous to the northern half of the Americas just like if we were born in Australia we'd be indigenous to the Australian landform there we'd be indigenous to Australia now if we were born in the Americas and traveled to Australia we would not be the indigenous people of the Australia of Australia but if we colonized it and had generations of children there are children would be indigenous to Australia but us the traveling ones that traveled over to there would not be indigenous to the northern half of the continents of the Americas not the continent or the northern continent of the of America there is no America continent there is continents that are more than one because some of the landmasses completely surrounded by water there's so many things wordingly an error in this video it's uncanny

  15. In 1491 the oh I hope I get the names right the Aztecs where the largest civilization in the Americas and then they literally turn around and say in North America the civilization why is it plural for the southern half of the continents of the Americas nothing being referenced has non plural for the northern half of the continents of the Americas being referenced as if it was a northern continent separate from the Americas and not part of the Americas but being a continent a northern continent of America you see what I'm getting at this switching back and forth and the narrative of our continents of the Americas because the continent of America does not exist never has we've always had more than one land mass in the Americas that's why it's plural not singular and if we're talking about the southern half the northern half Cuban southern east region of the Americas thus not America and did you just people the indigenous people of them the northern have the northern continent of America well they weren't indigenous people they came from somewhere else that they were indigenous to and they came to the northern half of the continents of the Americas not the northern the northern continent of America I wonder how many other discrepancies in back and forth referencing that they are doing when slightly touching upon the little mention of different immigrants migrating to places in this video let alone the indication that they're switching from certain areas around the globe like over there and the European area in Mesopotamia with a root the ancient Sumerian one of the ancient Sumerian cities and then referencing back to a different place culture of people it's uncanny that they literally mentioned ear Duke are not your Duke a root and my machine's not saying that right the place over there Mesopotamia where the ancient Sumerians at one of their very first civilization cities there but didn't mention the people they just mentioned the city that they had lived in and that it was in Iraq could wait instead of calling it Mesopotamia what she was called at that time and didn't mention anything else about them that's kind of weird leaving a whole split of information unexplained and why did they even reference them considering that they were so much more ancient than any of the people that are colonizing the Americas and it s baffling that they just mentioned the place and nothing more I know about it but most people probably never even heard it even though it's been known for Darwin and that other guy discovered the place

  16. And have them tell the stories that their community wants them to tell not that the history of how the community came to be what it is today but what their community wants them to tell as their history sold my whole family we were kryptonians due to the fact of the magnetic pole shifting all the time we lost our superpowers and invulnerability that the yellow sun created to our alien bodies that's our true history interculture how about my uncle or my friend over there he came from Krypton too what he looks different well yeah we all had different skin creeds some of us had the same pigment but different textures like my friends over there is all Sandy and mine is water true history people told it from where the ancestors of those people so that that's the true history and the way we see it the way we narrowed it and the way our cultural society wants it to be told today you know not a damn bit of it's true
