Episode 512
On today's episode, we welcome Luke Caverns, a passionate explorer who delves into the mysteries of ancient Mesoamerican and South American civilizations. He has spent years studying lost cultures, uncovering secrets hidden beneath jungles, deserts, and mountains, and contemplating the questions that remain unanswered. In this profound conversation, Luke Caverns takes us on a journey through forgotten worlds, guiding us toward ancient cities that were once the epicenters of knowledge, wealth, and spiritual evolution.As we explore the depths of Mesoamerica, Luke reveals that these ancient civilizations—particularly the Olmecs, Mayans, and Aztecs—were connected to something far greater than we typically understand. He draws us into the mystery of the Olmecs, a people whose origins and true identity are still shrouded in uncertainty. "We know nothing about them," Luke explains, "we don't even know their name." This lost civilization left behind enormous stone heads and other megalithic structures, yet much of their knowledge and culture disappeared with the end of their era.Moving south, Luke uncovers more layers of mystery in the search for El Dorado, the mythical city of gold. While many dismissed the legends as exaggerated tales spun by desperate conquistadors, Luke insists that much of the ancient world’s wealth, especially in South America, was hidden in cities that the Spaniards barely scratched the surface of. Cusco’s golden Garden of the Gods, with its shimmering trees and animals cast in precious metals, was just one example of the rich culture that flourished before it was wiped out by colonial forces.In these explorations, we are reminded that the greatest treasures often lie in the unseen and the unknown. The use of new technologies like LiDAR has revealed entire lost cities in the dense jungles of the Amazon, places untouched for centuries, perhaps millennia. Luke's work highlights how the land still holds untold secrets—civilizations that rivaled, and perhaps even exceeded, the sophistication of ancient Rome or Egypt.Luke's theories don’t just stop at the material evidence. He dives into the spiritual practices of these cultures, emphasizing how their knowledge of astronomy, architecture, and possibly even psychedelics allowed them to tap into higher levels of consciousness. “These cultures were astronomers—big time. They were the ancient world's greatest astronomers," Luke explains, noting how they seemed to access universal truths that were reflected in their architecture, their myths, and their gods.
