Starting point is 00:00:00 Well, welcome, everyone. Thanks so much for joining me. Derek Olson of Megalific Marvels here again to reconstruct the prehistoric past with you. So in this episode, I feature an interview that I recently just did with explorer, author, and filmmaker Timothy Alberino regarding the news of a new elongated skull discovery in Peru from what is reported to be like an eight-foot-tall being. So you're not going to be. You're not going to be. want to miss this. We also discuss his forthcoming TV series and the enigma's surrounding the mysterious elongated skull culture, known as the Paracas. But before we get to that, I want to let you know really quick

Starting point is 00:01:32 We've got more reading material there. from years worth of research. And then we're on Facebook. We got a Facebook page. And we have a Facebook group. And we just started the group recently a couple months ago. And we've already got several thousand people in there and some great discussion going on.
Starting point is 00:01:52 And there's just a lot more of stuff we can share in that group. And then we're on Twitter as well at Twitter.com forward slash Meg Marvels. So on Facebook. just search for megalithic marvels and there's a public page and a public group and all of those channels that i just mentioned will be linked below in the show notes uh so that's just another way you can connect with uh us on megalith marvels and i'm uh personally on instagram um at derrick gelson olson if you want to follow me uh so that's that let's get to my interview with timothy albrino now i really think you're going to enjoy this and he shares some brand new insight from his recent expeditions
Starting point is 00:02:40 to peru enjoy well i'm excited to be joined by timothy alberino timothy is an explorer and researcher who's been really featured as a guest on many programs including the history channel's ancient aliens tv show he's a filmmaker of the true legends documentary series and i think He's got some other new documentaries in the works. He's also the author of the new book, Birthright. Timothy, thanks so much for joining me on Megalithic Marvels. Very happy to be here with you. So in many places around the world, but especially in Peru and even Bolivia,
Starting point is 00:03:28 we not only have these oral traditions and written accounts of ancient giants, but we have these enigmatic, elongated skull specimens that we can literally see and touch. And I want to talk about some of these with you, starting with the infamous paracus skulls. I got to see these in person a few years ago with Brian Forster, and I was just simply amazed. So my question, Timothy, why is mainstream science largely ignored the enigma of these human-like entities,
Starting point is 00:03:58 and why is their anatomy so different than our own? This is a really enigmatic topic, because the Paracas people are mysterious. They seem to have disappeared. from the landscape. Now, I have friends in Peru, archaeologists who believe that the Parraqas people became the Naska people.
Starting point is 00:04:18 They simply evolved into the Naska culture. And that's, I think, the prevailing theory in Peru. But I personally don't believe, and there's other archaeologists who don't believe that that's the case. They believe that they just disappeared and they don't have an answer for where they went. But the Paraqas people, man,
Starting point is 00:04:38 that is a paradox. forget about the elongated skull. Just the culture is paradoxical. Way Priyanka, who inhabited the Pacific coast of Peru, specifically in what is today the Paracchus region. And we're not really sure what the people were actually called. We call them the Paracchus people
Starting point is 00:05:03 because they inhabited the area that is today called Paracchus. And Paracchus, by the way, the word paracas actually refers, to, for a lack of a better description, a sandstorm. But it's not necessarily sand. Pirochus is very dry, one of the driest places on Earth, as you know. It's like a wasteland. It's a very strange environment.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Because it's so dry and there's soot, like not just sand, it's not just sand, it's like dirt. That that region of Peru gets these really strong winds that whip through. I think it has something to do with the Onino. current and it picks up all this dirt and dry dust and sand and it's in it and it just ladens the atmosphere with it i don't know did you see a they call it a paracas if you get caught in a paracas you're driving you get caught in a paracas this is a native term for this for this uh for this dirt storm and you're driving your truck you can't see five feet in front of your out your windshield it's
Starting point is 00:06:06 that crazy so um that's where the term paracus comes comes from. So we say the Parraqas people because it's the remains of this indigenous people in this region that the natives refer to as Paracas, hence the Paracus people. We don't really know what they're called, but we do know that they were very, as I said before, enigmatic. More enigmatic than most people think who even know something about the Paracus people, because I was in Peru recently researching the Paracchus people, not just the skulls, which I did, but also just this culture, fascinating culture. The textiles are famous. They were very good with textile makers. They were able to incorporate really bright colors and do amazing things with textile. They were
Starting point is 00:06:55 great builders, but they built with Adobe bricks. The progress people are very enigmatic, very, very bizarre. First of all, most of these natives are small. They're almost like some of them were like dwarfs. I mean, they were small people. You see the prox skulls. online and you get the impression that they're these huge skulls, but as you know, they're not. In fact, some of them are really small, but they're misshapen. Their craniums are bizarre. They're deformed. Some of the skulls are quite large. And in terms of weight, even the ones that are just comparable to our skulls are heavier. They're denser. So there's some anatomical differences, intriguing anatomical difference.
Starting point is 00:07:37 The eye sockets are bigger, in most cases, significantly bigger. the cranial capacity is larger, the volume of the brain, the chamber where the brain sits inside of your cranium is as more volume. Generally speaking with the elongated skulls, not all of the Procass skulls are elongated. I think it was the nobles who had the elongated skulls, even the Inca, even there's Inca skulls that are elongated. So it's not just exclusive to Paracus. You can find them up in the Tijuana area. You can find them actually. I found them in jungle.
Starting point is 00:08:10 which is actually kind of amazing that most people don't realize and isn't publicized. They're in the jungle. So it's not unique to the prox people, the elongation of the skulls, but it is the most eccentric and accentuated with the proxed people. The most bizarre elongated skulls on earth, I think, are in progress. So these people were really into it, and they were perfecting this elongation of the skulls. Now, the big argument, the big discussion right now is, are the elongated skulls exclusively the result of cranial head deformation, cranial headboarding, a cranial deformation or
Starting point is 00:08:55 cradle headboarding? In other words, the manipulation of a skull in infants, wrapping boards, you know, wrapping ropes and boards and so forth, which is still being done to they all over. over the earth, that's just the fact. Or are the paracus skulls or some of the skulls the result of a genotypic difference, a phenotypic difference that is resulting from a genotypic variation? In other words, are these genetic variations that we're seeing? Is it genetic? So, or combination of the both of the two? That's the big debate right now. Of course, mainstream archaeologists totally disregard the genetic theory. And they just say this is all cranial headboarding.
Starting point is 00:09:45 You people are crazy if you think this is anything to do with genetics. But then you have alternative historians like Brian Forster. I would be in that camp where I believe that there's something genetic going on here. It's not just cranial headboarding. You can elongate a skull, but you can't increase the size of the eye sockets with ropes and boards and other things. other thing, little details. By the way, the increase, because they're very, very clearly, their eye sockets are larger. I'm sure you notice that on a lot of the skulls. Not all of them, but a lot of those skulls, the eye sockets are like huge.
Starting point is 00:10:24 Especially like on the, um. The chongos? Yeah, the chongos. That's the, that's the chongos pyramid. That's the pyramid. The chongos pyramid. And there's the chongos skull, which is in Ica, the Ica museum, which is the one that's most, you know, most bizarre.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Yeah, you look at the chango skull. I mean, and it's clear, you know, again, like you said, people make the argument that this was cradle headboarding, but obviously cradle headboarding changes the shape of a skull. But there's no way it can add more mass, right? So you look at the volume. Volume, yeah, you look at the chongo school. And then there's the, I think it's called a Waiky skeleton skull that I saw. And that's got the one with huge eye sockets. And then along in concert with.
Starting point is 00:11:07 That one's up towards Kusko. Right. That's near Kusko in a museum. But even the Chongo Skull has abnormally large eye sockets. Yeah. And along with all those, then you have kind of these, what I guess I would call these infant elongated skull mummies that have been unearthed recently, it seems like. Yes.
Starting point is 00:11:26 And it looks like these were born right out of the womb with huge elongated skull. So I guess my final question, Timothy, could these humanoid-looking specimens go? back to being related somehow to the Golden Age fraternity. We were discussing earlier, were these several generations removed possibly? What do you think they're separate altogether? It's possible. My colleague and good friend of mine, Elie Marciuli, has also done extensive research on the elongated skulls and has actually done a lot of DNA work.
Starting point is 00:12:02 And I think he did really, and he did it in conjunction with, with Chase Kletzky and with Brian Forster. He had a whole team. He had an archaeologist, and he had a whole team. And they just did a really, really good job, really professional job at going in there and extracting DNA samples in a very highly scientific controlled way. And it was just unimpeachable.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Their work was unimpeachable. phenomenal job and they were able to find some very surprising they were able to get some very surprising results from their DNA testing and I'll refer you to to L.A. Marcioli's work on that and O'Brien Forrester has also done independently some of his own DNA testing and we have also done DNA testing I've done it in Peru on a one particular skull what I think the DNA testing is pointing to is indicating is first of all, neither I nor L.A. Marsoli have ever been able to extract nuclear DNA. And, you know, remember back to biology class, mitochondrial DNA is the mom's DNA. And that one is much easier to find. Nuclear DNA, that's how you find out who the father was.
Starting point is 00:13:28 So we've been able to get in every case mitochondrial DNA, but never nuclear DNA. Now, I don't know, I'm not sure if Brian's been able to get it. I think I've heard a rumor that he did was, I don't know if you know, but I think Brian maybe was able to get nuclear DNA, but I know that I was not, and L.A. Marshall was not either. But the DNA that L.A. was able to get, and he did like 50-some samples from different skulls.
Starting point is 00:13:58 had some very interesting haplogroups showing up. And it was, there was an indication, I would say a strong indication that genetically speaking, the Paracus people were not indigenous to Peru. They were very distinct people. Apparently, they came from the Middle East, Europe, or the Black Sea region, in general, generally speaking, what the data was indicated,
Starting point is 00:14:23 which I find highly intriguing. Now, my colleague, Elie Marciuli, believes that, these elongated skulls of prox people are somehow related to the Nephilim that the Bible talks about, to the giants, the Bible talks about it, and the hybrid offspring of the watchers in general. And I think that's a plausible theory. Some people believe that this may be a ice age race, humanoid race, or maybe a variation of the human species, very, very ancient in that the prox people were sort of the last, of that race. I find that theory to be highly intriguing. I really do. I find that to be highly intriguing. But I've never seen any myself. I've never personally seen any DNA results that indicate non-human DNA. Maybe in the nuclear, in the nuclear DNA, maybe some of that would, maybe there would be an unknown factor there in terms of the in terms of the genome some some unknown
Starting point is 00:15:30 genes that that are that are not human i don't know um but i do know that there's definitely some indication that these people were not indigenous to peru and are unlike the other native tribes around them some of them because remember there would have been intermingling with the tribes around them. So you're going to get, you're going to get sort of a mudblood of different, of different haplogroups mixed together there with the Prakus people. But certainly some of them appear to be not from Peru, but from the Middle East, the Black Sea, or somewhere in Europe. And there's some other intriguing things, too, about the Prakis people that I'm actually developing a TV show in my second episode, third episode. I'm in Peru, actually with Elie Marciuli. And, um,
Starting point is 00:16:16 And we're, and Chase Kletzky, and we are exploring, further exploring this mystery of the Prakis people. And we make some very intriguing discoveries that I think most people are not aware of concerning the Prakis people, concerning the Chongos Pyramid. I'm not going to give it away yet, but we make some very intriguing discoveries with ground penetrating radar drone, our state of the art, ground penetrating radar drone. and also some very intriguing discovery related to the customs of the progress people. These are not normal human beings. That's for sure.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Whoever they are, whatever they were doing in terms of the cranial situation, if it was just headboarding or if there is a genetic factor there, I can tell you with certainty that these people were bizarre. they were not normal people by any stretch of the imagination. This was a very unique group of people. Their customs, the way they looked, the way they dressed, the way they lived, totally different than anything I've ever encountered. So that's ongoing research that I'm doing. Oh, by the way, it's a little aside.
Starting point is 00:17:33 I was sent a picture by an archaeologist friend of mine recently in which a colleague of hers was up north in Peru or maybe central Peru on the coast, she discovered an unearth an elongated skull that is absolutely enormous. And I'm going to be going and doing some research on this and taking a look. But from what I've seen, the pictures they sent me, and these are archaeologists in Peru.
Starting point is 00:18:02 These aren't just lay people. These archaeologists in Peru working in the field. Discovered a skull that I don't know exactly because I haven't laid hands on it or taken official measurements, but just from the pictures that I've seen her holding it like this next to her head, and I'm assuming she's a small Peruvian, you know,
Starting point is 00:18:20 maybe 5-5, this thing had, I mean, you're talking an 8 to 12-foot person. Incredible. Will this possibly be featured in your upcoming new TV show? Very possibly. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:18:37 So I've got to track down. I've got to go. and do some more investigating, but it's very possible it will make it into, if not this episode, this elongated skull episode, a future one. But it's the largest elongated skull I've ever seen in my life. And it is truly gigantic. You know, it's not like 20 foot tall giant, but it's definitely a really big person. Like we're talking, you know, from quick and dirty estimates from, from some of the people I emailed, you're talking, like I said, at least like an eight foot tall person with a big elongated skull.
Starting point is 00:19:12 So that's, you know, it could be a one-off, could be fake. I don't know. You never know what you're dealing with in these countries, you know, these third world countries, but the guy who sent me the image, a good friend of mine, highly reputable guy in the archaeological community in Peru. And when can viewers maybe expect to see this first episode of your new show coming up? Well, we haven't parked the new show anywhere yet. so we don't know where what network we're going to be on.
Starting point is 00:19:39 We're in conversations right now. But it's going to pop up somewhere soon. I don't know where yet. I don't know where yet. I have a website, timothyabrino.com. I have not updated it in a long time. I've got to go in and update it. And I'm going to do that shortly where I will,
Starting point is 00:19:57 I will be announcing where and when people can see this new TV show, TV series. I also have a mailing list. So people are interested. and tracking with me. People can track with me on there if they go to my website, Timothyabrino.com, at the bottom,
Starting point is 00:20:12 and I'm going to move things around here shortly. I'm going to revamp that website. But right now you can find the mailing list to sign up on the mailing list, the very bottom of the page by the contact. I used to do stuff. People always reference to stuff I used to do online on YouTube, like the Elbrino analysis
Starting point is 00:20:27 or the True Legend series. That was a long, that's like ancient history to me right now. with the stuff I'm doing, I would say that the stuff I'm doing now is much more exciting, even though I would say that was also very exciting. It's like I've up the, I've up the Annie. Things are even more exciting now. I just haven't been making videos about them. So I'm going to be getting back into the game a little bit more in terms of speaking to the public, making videos, interacting with the audience. So to everybody watching her listening, go to Timothy Albarino.com. And you can find links
