They found a ship wreck in the med that had copper so pure that the only place that it could have come from is the Keweenaw area of the world. To this day, one can go rock out and find copper samples that are over 97% pure copper. Hell, you can go to any tourist trap and buy cooper rock samples for paper weights that have been cut in half.
The argument continues to this day? Who the hell was up there mining this stuff during the bronze age? They have indicated over 5000 ancient mining sites along the shores of the Keweenaw and Isle Royal.
The point is..this so called “expert” claims the Vikings could not have traveled up there because there was no lakes. The SOB should be taken out and shot for pure ignorance. Those lakes formed and filled by abt 10000 BC. If they had not, then that float copper would NOT have been deposited by the glaciers by then for those ancient miners to collect around the bronze age.
I hate these attention whores!!!!
Absolutely. And I am familiar with that wreck, possible Minoan or phonetician who may have traded with the Viking at the time. When if first came out they were absolutely sure of the source being the Great Lakes.
But of course that was not going to fly, too many experts still alive to allow that possibility because that would not fit the narrative they set in stone. So they have since made every effort to debunk that in mass.
No way can we change history as we know it... So then why try to even look or study history? Is this NOT the whole objective? Just shut it all down then, set it in stone and be locked in with only what we know now up to this point and save a lot of time, trouble, and money. lol
