Remember that time in Episode 62 when Wyatt and Jake picked three random creatures apiece to take turns talking about? Yeah, neither do they. So it’s weird artifacts time instead, and not as many of them!This week, Wyatt’s got a mysterious manuscript and a forgotten language, while Jake describes a weird hammer and struggles to pronounce Aztec names. Presenting the Codex Gigas, the coolest giant old book since the Voynich manuscript, but also older! And don’t get us started on the London Hammer. Is it 100-million-year-old proof of human civilization? 400-million-year-old? And does that make it also proof that the Earth is NOT old? Don’t expect to find any answers on Easter Island, where the potential language Rongorongo remains indecipherable beyond potential 1990s hit song lyrics. Also, terrifying whistles and a cute bird happen.Don’t cry for me, next-door neighbor — listen to this brand new episode of Superduperstitious!EPISODE LINKSMerch Shop: https://www.superduperstitious.com/shopPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/superduperstitiousFour Phantoms email: fourphantomsbeer@gmail.comFour Phantoms pickup location: https://burgybrews.hrpos.heartland.us/Four Phantoms on Untappd: https://untappd.com/FourPhantoms/beerWyatt’s storiesCodex Gigas: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codex_GigasBig ol’ Devil illustration: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/df/Codex-Gigas-Devil-enhanced.jpgRongorongo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RongorongoJake’s storiesThe London Hammer: http://www.badarchaeology.com/out-of-place-artefacts/very-ancient-artefacts/the-london-artifact/Photo with shell: http://paleo.cc/paluxy/hammer2b.jpgEarth’s history as a football field: https://youtu.be/M8V_glRW1hAAztec Death Whistles: https://www.mexicolore.co.uk/aztecs/music/death-whistle1988 NYT article: https://nyti.ms/2W5QiPKXavier Quijas Yxayotl: https://www.yxayotl.com/Death whistle video: https://youtu.be/I9QuO09z-SI See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
