Deep dives
Discovery in Iraq
During his time in Iraq, Mateo stumbled upon an unregistered city in Iraq that may have been an ancient settlement linked to Nebuchadnezzar's slave cities. Historians were excited about this find, having uncovered an archaeological mound that was never before explored by the Western world, potentially a significant discovery.
Childhood Exploration Spark
Mateo's interest in ancient civilizations and exploring was sparked during his childhood in Ecuador. Witnessing workers uncover ancient artifacts near his friend's farmhouse challenged the notion Mateo had been taught that all discoveries had been made. This experience opened his eyes to the endless possibilities of unexplored sites and civilizations that lie beyond conventional knowledge.
Military Background and Exploration
Mateo's decision to join the military was motivated by his desire for exploration. He sought to acquire skills that would aid him in wilderness survival to pursue his passion for exploring ancient ruins. However, the military provided him with different skill sets focused on willpower and tactics rather than wilderness survival, leading him to further develop his skills post-military service.
Curiosity and Myth Debunking
Encounters in Ecuador where he saw ancient artifacts being discovered, sparked Mateo's curiosity and debunked the idea that all exploration had ended. Witnessing the excavation of potentially ancient ruins shifted his perception and ignited a desire to uncover hidden civilizations and artifacts. These experiences challenged established educational narratives and kindled Mateo's interest in delving deeper into exploration and archaeology.
Ancient Archaeological Sites Discovered
Discoveries of ancient archaeological sites, such as the massive rock formation known as Snake Nest Wall, dating back over a thousand years, have been made in the wilderness. Researchers speculate on the possible ritual or functional purposes of these sites, indicating a wealth of unexplored historical artifacts and locations waiting to be uncovered.
Mysterious Stone Mounds and Their Origins
Stone mounds believed to be over a hundred years old have sparked controversy and theories about their creation. Speculations range from being built by Irish mine workers to serve as temporary shelters or even kilns for baking. However, the uncertainty persists due to potential historical alterations and the challenges of accurately dating the structures.
Terrifying Encounter with Sasquatch
A harrowing encounter with a group of Sasquatch has left a lasting impact on the speaker's perspective and safety in the wilderness. The unexpected meeting with these elusive creatures, accompanied by eerie noises and stone-throwing behavior, has led to profound shifts in the individual's understanding of the environment and personal safety measures.
Exploration and Documentation Efforts
Venturing into the wilderness armed with videography skills, the speaker embarks on documenting interactions with Sasquatch and other phenomena. Through controlled experiments and dedicated exploration, the exploration team seeks to present factual evidence systematically and impartially, aiming to shed light on unknown territories and encounters.
A few months ago, someone mentioned that a dude had walked to Crestone from Colorado Springs — which is a SERIOUS walk over some very rugged mountains — and that he was some kind of Sasquatch expert. I was intrigued, but I have to admit that I assumed the guy was a wild-eyed wayward soul who’d had a bit too much psilocybin and not enough common sense. Then I met Mateo at a party and after chatting with this totally chill, reasonable, obviously smart dude for a while, I realized … wait a minute, THIS is the Squatch dude? So I’d like to introduce you to yet another fascinating Crestonian. You can learn more about Mateo and his exploits at modernexplorer.me.
