Archaeologists Uncover 'Impossible' Evidence That Unlocks Lost Part Of The Past
When a group of natives in North America approached the scientific community with claims that were contrary to their professional consensus, researchers were quick to dismiss them. These scholars soon learned, however, that everything they thought they knew about a particular chapter of history was a complete lie.
The Heiltsuk Culture
The First Nation indigenous to British Columbia's Great Bear Rainforest, the Heiltsuk people have laid claim to the remote Triquet Island for nearly 5,000 years. But archaeologists have dismissed their claim of ownership for one glaring reason...
Ice Age History
The continental glacier that formed over Canada during the last Ice Age would've also covered Triquet Island, making it uninhabitable. But even with the facts stacked against the Heiltsuk, a small group of researchers took it upon themselves to uncover the truth once and for all.
Surveying Triquet
The archaeologists began an extensive excavation of the remote island in the hope of discovering traces of a past civilization. What they found there not only shocked the entire archaeological community, but it also changed history forever.
Ancient Heart
Beneath several layers of earth, they found remnants of an ancient, wood-burning hearth. But how could this be? According to researchers, it would've been impossible for humans to dig their way through the glacial ice to get to the soil below.
