The video delves into the controversial and mysterious discovery by explorer GE Kincaid in the early 20th century, involving an extensive underground complex in the Grand Canyon. Despite initial findings of advanced artifacts, granaries, cooking areas, crypts with mummies, and engraved stone tablets with Egyptian and Tibetan-like hieroglyphics, mainstream archaeology largely dismisses these claims. Kincaid's discoveries were followed by an official expedition led by Professor S.A. Jordan, which unearthed more evidence of an advanced, non-local civilization and numerous artifacts indicative of a complex social structure.
The Grand Canyon, a site of deep cultural and spiritual significance for indigenous tribes like the Hopi, is tied into their intricate mythology, including tales of a reptilian race and "ant people" who helped humans in times of cataclysm. The video explores broader themes of mythological flood stories, sky gods, and advanced civilizations rumored to exist globally, drawing parallels to various ancient cultures and legends.
Controversy and secrecy are recurring motifs, with claims that the Smithsonian Institution, accused of covering up pivotal findings since the late 19th century, suppresses evidence of these ancient civilizations. The video also portrays modern explorers, like Jerry and Kathy Wills, facing government-imposed restrictions while attempting to rediscover Kincaid's cave. Speculations of deliberate obfuscation are compounded by recent discoveries of oversized coffins and skeletons, which further fuel theories of a lost, giant race once inhabiting North America, thus challenging conventional historical narratives.

In this part of the video, the narrator discusses President Teddy Roosevelt’s intention in 1908 to prohibit timber and mining operations in the Grand Canyon, which later became a national park in 1919. Explorer GE Kincaid ventured down the Colorado River to explore the canyon before restrictions were enforced. Approximately 40 miles upstream from El Tovar Crystal Canyon, Kincaid noticed stains 2,000 feet up and discovered carved sandstone steps leading to a man-made cavern. Inside, he found Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics on the walls and a complex network of tunnels and rooms estimated to house up to 50,000 people. He documented granaries with pottery containing seeds, cooking areas, a dining hall, and various ancient artifacts, indicating advanced metallurgy technology.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the discovery of a remarkable underground complex by GE Kincaid. Kincaid found a crypt filled with rows of mummies and realized he needed help to fully explore the site. He sent artifacts and notes to the Smithsonian, which sent Professor S.A. Jordan and a team to excavate the site. They found the cave system had a symmetrical design leading to a central chamber with a large statue resembling Buddha. The complex, named The Citadel, featured mummies with various artifacts. The mummies were mostly male, covered in clay, and wrapped in bark fabric, with copper cups and broken swords near them. The design of the urns indicated different stages of civilization.

In this segment, Kincaid, Jordan, and the Smithsonian team explore a cave complex believed to be the Warriors’ Barracks. They uncover evidence suggesting a large, advanced city inhabited by thousands of men, women, and children for hundreds or thousands of years. The team discovers hundreds of rooms, including barracks, granaries, metal workshops, temples, and living quarters, along with numerous artifacts such as swords, shields, pottery, utensils, and engraved stone tablets with hieroglyphics. Despite their efforts, they cannot determine who built the Citadel. They surmise that the statues and writings have similarities to Tibetan and Egyptian culture but cannot conclusively identify them. Two main conclusions are reached: the civilization was highly advanced and did not emerge locally but arrived from elsewhere, contradicting mainstream archaeology and anthropology beliefs. They send artifacts and detailed notes to the Smithsonian, hypothesizing an ancient, advanced civilization existed in the Grand Canyon area long before Native Americans.

In this part of the video, the narrator discusses the request by Egypt or Asia Kincaid for more resources to research the Citadel and search the Grand Canyon for evidence of a lost civilization, which was denied, leading to their disappearance. The Grand Canyon, considered a natural wonder and a spiritual site for indigenous tribes like the Hopi, Navajo, Zuni, and Apache, is also said to be the origin of the first people in Hopi mythology. The myth includes a reptilian race, or “lizard people,” who emerged and shape-shifted into humans. Other legends, including those of the Zuni and Acoma, mention pre-existing races such as giants. The video suggests that although these myths seem fantastical, they may contain elements of truth, as evidenced by historical instances of early explorations by Vikings and possibly ancient Chinese explorers before Columbus. The challenges of building in the Grand Canyon are highlighted, with references to the Hopi legend of the ant people, small humanoid creatures with insect-like features who supposedly helped during ancient cataclysms.
00:12:00
In this part of the video, the narrator discusses an ancient legend where a sky god, coming from a moving star (interpreted as a UFO), saves the Hopi people by bringing them to the ant people who shelter them in underground caves. The legend is further elaborated with entities called the Havmusuvs, described as humanoids with golden skin and large eyes, living in vast underground cities, trading with distant peoples, and wielding advanced weapons and silver canoes that flew in the sky, producing a humming sound.
The video then touches on the commonality of flood myths across ancient cultures and how these myths often include deities who descend from the sky post-flood to teach humanity essential skills. The narrator questions whether a lost city in the Grand Canyon could be evidence of these myths, and why there might be attempts to suppress such information.
The video references two 1909 Phoenix Gazette articles, dismissed by mainstream researchers as hoaxes, yet believed by some to be real and covered up by the Smithsonian Institution. An interview snippet with a Smithsonian representative vehemently denies any such findings or cover-ups, reinforcing the idea of the story being a hoax.

In this segment of the video, the focus is on the legendary Kincaid’s cave, which is officially deemed a hoax and located on government land, making access nearly impossible. Despite Kincaid’s warnings to prevent people from disturbing archaeological discoveries, explorers Jerry and Kathy Wills have dedicated years to solving the cave mystery. By locating the original base camp, they believe they’ve found the entrance to the underground city, though exploration is hindered by government restrictions. Many caves in the Grand Canyon have been sealed off, allegedly for safety or to protect bat populations. Nevertheless, some individuals continue to seek out the lost city despite deterrents, such as government surveillance in no-fly zones. Notably, when Jerry and Kathy’s team attempted exploration, they were monitored by an unmarked plane, and similar attempts by another group resulted in an encounter with a black helicopter, indicating ongoing government oversight and possible warnings to deter such missions.

In this segment of the video, the focus is on an area believed to have ventilation shafts that explorer Kincaid wrote about. The team discovered cement blocks and mountaineering equipment on platforms near the edge of the rim, which authorities claim are for preventing rock falls. Notably, rock formations in this forbidden zone have names linked to ancient Egyptian and Hindu cultures. David Hatcher Childress, an author, suggests that the U.S. government suppresses archaeological findings, drawing parallels to the movie “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” He asserts that the Smithsonian started covering up discoveries in 1881, under geologist John Wesley Powell, supporting the isolationism theory over diffusionism. This theory posits that ancient mound-building cultures in the Americas were advanced and interconnected, contrary to the official stance of isolation. Additionally, excavations of ancient mounds revealed extremely tall skeletons, notably from the Spiro Mounds in the 1930s.
00:21:00
In this segment, coffins discovered in Alabama by Frank Burns during a geological survey are discussed. These seven-and-a-half-foot-long coffins were sent to the Smithsonian in 1984, but later inquiries revealed they were misplaced and eventually found in an asbestos-contaminated warehouse. Additionally, gigantic human skeletons unearthed during World War II in Alaska were mentioned, with reports and findings collected by the Smithsonian, which subsequently vanished. These stories highlight allegations that the Smithsonian has hidden evidence suggesting the existence of an advanced ancient race in North America. Mainstream science dismisses these claims, but some native tribes, like the Hopi, believe in their historical accuracy. The segment also touches on the hopeful belief among the Hopi that their ancestral lands would be returned. The video’s host, AJ, concludes by encouraging viewers to engage with the channel and support it through various means.
