It's a very interesting interview, a little dismissive of alternative theories, but I still recommend it.
Ancient Handbag Controversy - EXPLAINED | Dr. David Miano
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11ulEiZBjlQ
The interview inspired me to recreate some videos of my thoughts about the handbags, because I felt Dr Miano made a legitimate point about relying too much on similarities, without a sufficient amount of correlating context. Ironically, information from the interview also assisted me in acquiring some of the necessary context to strengthen those correlations. I posted Part 1 several weeks ago, now there are three, detailing the correlations between ancient cultures.

I just finished two new videos speculating on the meaning of their symbols. The first is regarding the cup held by many of the rulers and gods on cylinder seals and the second is part 1, in a series of short videos speculating on the handbags of the gods.

And it concludes a several year long obsession with symbols I started to notice everywhere. You can see me puzzling about it in the past on my profile. I don't feel like my current thoughts are conclusive in any way, but I finally feel like meaning is starting to emerge from the symbols of ancient cultures into an interesting narrative.

View MoreThis video is my attempt to contribute to the ancient history community. My friends and family gave me feedback that I should narrate, because highlighting artifacts does not provide enough context. So this is the first time I have ever narrated anything. It is about ancient history, spirits, serpents, pyramids, handbags of the gods, and many more artifacts that are likely familiar to this community, but will be revisited from a new perspective. https://youtu.be/ph5eWGUJr0w

I am always amazed at the brilliance of ancient scribes of all cultures. In my opinion, the Mayan art form seems to be affected by hallucinogens, more so than other early cultures, or perhaps it is just more noticeable. I really enjoyed both of these documentaries:
