The second season of the much anticipated and highly controversial Ancient Apocalypse docuseries has been released on Netflix featuring author and explorer Graham Hancock. This season focuses on ancient sites located in the Americas, and Graham opens the season asking “Could the key to discovering a lost civilization of the Ice Age lie here in the Americas?” In this episode, I recap episode 6 with special guest Rhys Rogers, a fellow researcher, explorer and physiotherapist. Together, we share our thoughts on episode 6 which finds Graham Hancock visiting one of Mexico's most mysterious Mayan archaeological sites - Palenque. Rhys and I break down the fascinating information that was shared in epsiode 6 relating to the Mayan calendar, and how Maya architecture seems to have been a repository of ancient knowledge, linking heaven and earth. We also dive into topics not covered in the Ancient Apocalypse episode, such as the mystery surrounding King Pakal of Palenque. What he really 7+ ft tall? What happened to his skull? And Rhys shares a bit about his recent trip to Morocco where he unexpectedly learned of a local legend regarding the "King of the Jinns," and a mystical shrine on top of the mountain dedicated to this entity.
