As Russia's leader visits North Korea, Johns Hopkins professor Sergey Radchenko offers insights into the fascinating history of twists and turns in relations between Moscow and Pyongyang.

Is there archaeological evidence that giant, human-like creatures once walked the Earth? Did the Lost Tribes of Israel visit New Mexico, etching the Ten Commandments into a boulder? Did Native Americans encounter visitors from other planets, painting images of space-suited aliens on canyon walls in Utah? Have archaeologists discovered the far western outpost of an ancient Egyptian pharaoh, not in Egypt but in California? This lecture will reveal the truth underlying these ancient mysteries and many more. Spoiler: The answer to each of them is a resolute “no!” Nevertheless, the stories behind false claims about the ancient past are fascinating and occasionally a little hilarious. As a bonus, we will tell you how you can personally visit these places and see them for yourselves. About the Presenter: Ken Feder, PhD is professor emeritus of Anthropology at Central Connecticut State. His primary research interests include the archaeology of the native peoples of New England and the analysis of public perceptions about the human past. He has served as a talking head on numerous television documentaries about the human species and authored several books on the subject. Please visit here for additional information about the event.
