Here's a video of a discussion on the topic of the ship San Lesmas. It's in Spanish but you can manipulate it to give you english subtitles although the translation is not that great (like anything AI)

There's always the Alexander the Greek's lost squadron theories. After Afghanistan, they moved south, then out to sea. Polynesians, just another invader.

The Ngai Tahu are considered to be the main South Island tribe and in some ways practically own the place. But they were invaders from the North Island and did not arrive here (the South Island) until after Tasman had visited.

The thing about white liberalism is that it can't imagine such things. And can't imagine that NZ was not a country in the 17th Century. And that therefore Ngai Tahu are no different than European "colonizers".

An interesting read, will have a better look at it. I think you've linked it before but maybe not that exact part of it.

Yes his page I did link to. After years of reading both alternative thought and just-so story history the obvious is self evident. Massive gatekeeping. Then of course destruction if feasible. For instance, https://pleistocenecoalition.com/

The Pleistocene Coalition News needs a graphic designer. But other than that the structures that they've found in Montana have corrollories in NZ. I don't know if NZ had a pre-history before the Spanish & Portuguese brigs started sailing around the Pacific or not but there seems to be evidence of that. One thing that the British establishment is very keen on is that you don't question their origin stories and NZ's is a black & white one with no subtlety. A lot of what we think of Maori for example no doubt originated in the minds of the English (& other) priests who were here before the main part of European immigration in the 19th C.

History would be wonderful if only it was true. Instead we have Just So fables to save Jewish Jesuit history

The Greeks invented the Jewish nation and put Apollo in the pit. The Romans took him back out of it again and said that he was resurrected. The Persians did their own version, now known as is lamb. It was a time of invention the period from about 430 BCE to maybe 4-600 CE (which may be a lot shorter than indicated by those dates).

Not sure how this relates to the Americas though. Does it all fall over if Homo Erectus can be proven to have been in the Americas?

Very interesting. Thanks! I watched a documentary about that volcano on White Island that killed quite a few some years back. Lots of history around NZ.

That company that took the tourists to White Island had been recently taken over by a Maori org and it would seem to me that they were too keen to take it over and did not do enough due diligence on it. The tourists should not have been anywhere near White Island that day, there were plenty of warning signals.
