371 | Lost Cities Beneath the Amazon Canopy: What LiDAR Found

Show Notes

🌳 Ancient roads. Monumental earthworks. A rainforest concealing the outlines of a remarkable human world.

Join Matt Wilson, Juniper Ravenwood, and Chris Beach for Episode 371 of The Shadow Frequency as they explore the lost cities beneath the Amazon canopy and what LiDAR research actually revealed.

🔦 A 2024 survey documented 432 earthworks, including 396 previously unrecorded structures. The discoveries lead into the story of the Aquiry, possible ceremonial centers, managed forests, and the unresolved decline of a monumental tradition. Could places shaped by generations of gathering retain an echo of the people who used them? 👻

The episode examines the wider estimates of 24,000–30,000 earthworks and 1.25–3 million people, includes Juniper’s scripted Kathy mailbag feature, and visits Northern Ireland’s Haughey’s Fort in Chris’s Shadow News.

🎧 Follow the show, share the episode, and tell us which mystery stayed with you.
