Was pleasantly surprised that this wasn't some crackpot pushing a misunderstanding Strait of Gibraltar/Mediterranean Sea flood. The Zanclean flood most likely did happen at some point, but was some 5 million years ago which is well before humans. Was a pretty good analysis of shared flood stories and their origins. Very analytical and doesn't stray into pseudo-science nonsense. Very refreshing in the age of bullshit conspiracy archeology.

Anyone actually watch this? I'm guessing more pseudo-archaeology bullshit?
The opposite. Looks at how stories are mostly unrelate and those that are similar were spread by trade or missionaries.
Always.
