From fiery chariots in the Bible to flying turtles in Native American mythology, ancient stories are full of fantastic flying vehicles and creatures. But while Ancient Aliens insists these are proof of extraterrestrial technology, we dive into the real cultural and religious significance behind these myths. Join us as we explore how ancient astronaut theorists strip away the rich symbolic meaning of sacred stories to push their alien agenda, and learn why a flying turtle teaching humility makes way more sense than an alien spaceship in disguise.
