8 Great Archaeological Discoveries That Turned Out to Be Fake

Get ready for a wild ride through the world of fake history! In this video, we’ll uncover eight famous archaeological “discoveries” that completely fooled experts — from forged fossils to ancient relics that were anything but ancient. Some were clever scams, others honest mistakes, but all of them shook the world before the truth came out. We’ll dig into the stories, the motives, and how science eventually exposed them. You won’t believe how close we came to rewriting history over a few lies, fakes, and well-placed shovels.
