Viking archaeologist Cat Jarman

Earl Spencer has confirmed his new relationship with Dr. Cat Jarman, a prominent archaeologist and Nordic Person of the Year, following his recent divorce. The couple met during a dig at his estate in 2021, where they developed a personal connection and subsequently launched a podcast together, The Rabbit Hole Detectives. Meanwhile, Flint Dibble, an archaeologist at Cardiff University, is actively debunking claims of a lost advanced civilization from 20,000 years ago, which are popularized by writer Graham Hancock in his Netflix series Ancient Apocalypse. Dibble emphasizes that there is no archaeological evidence to support such theories and discusses the societal implications of believing in mythical civilizations. He appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience to challenge Hancock's claims and promote factual understanding of archaeology. In Louisiana, State Archaeologist Chip McGimsey provided insights into the techniques used to study the region's Native American civilizations, highlighting the untapped archaeological potential in Livingston Parish.
