Flying SquidNew category to share! People with crazy ideas about archaeology from the Fraudulent Archaeology Hall of Fame group, and boy are there some doozies! Wall of text continued in the body.
mynachmadarchWait, Lemuria was an actual place? I admit I've never looked it up and was raised by fundamentalist Christian parents about as crazy as this person, but I always thought it was just a place in the Conan the Barbarian world.
No, it was not an actual place. But it didn’t come from Conan. It was an attempt to explain why there were lemur fossils in Madagascar and India, but not Africa before we understood plate tectonics. The idea was that there was a lost continent in the Indian Ocean and it sank.
Okay, so great comic book kingdom, not so great real place. Cool, glad to see I'm not that crazy yet
