Those claims include a precociously advanced ancient culture of white people, maybe from Atlantis, maybe not, who brought civilization to the benighted people of the Americas. The advanced society, it is said, was wiped out utterly in a natural cataclysm and, therefore, the lack of any archaeological evidence for its existence is perceived as evidence for its existence. If that hurts your head, yeah, me too. Archaeology is claimed to be a closed club of ivory-tower academics who might know the truth but are committed to hiding it. In the weirdest element of popular archaeology resides the notion that at least some archaeological sites are centers of deep-state, demonic activities and vandalism is viewed as a potent strategy to negate the power of this evil.
