Clif High offers his interpretation of ancient literature when space aliens scoured the planet Earth, seeking humans to draft on a mind over machine mission. Sounds kind of spacey, and it is, but also quite illuminating. There’s certainly much we do not know about our origins and our history.

Archaeologists have unearthed En Esur, one of the greatest cities of antiquity, in Israel. The 5,000-year-old settlement has been called a cosmopolitan wonderland by researchers and is thought to have been home to 10,000 residents during the Bronze Age.
Another important piece of the puzzle to our historic past, En Esur was a planned settlement with a network of streets, alleys, squares, and drainage and storage installations. Researchers point out that this type of structural thinking and planning was most likely only found in centers of trade. Here’s more on the discovery with BuzWeaver on The Lost History Channel TKTC.

The findings seem to confirm the long-disregarded theory of fairy tale writer Wilhelm Grimm, who thought that all Indo-European cultures shared common tales, older than the earliest literary records, going back into the Bronze Age, back to when Eastern and Western Indo-European languages split, more than 5,000 years ago.
