I Found Thousands of Them… Our Greatest Discovery Yet!

Months ago, we spotted a mysterious cylinder-shaped ruin hidden beneath this massive cliff, but we couldn't find a way to reach it. Today, we finally did. We've discovered ancient pots, spear points, arrowheads, and signs of people who once lived in places most would never go to, but what we found inside this ruin may be our greatest discovery yet. And just when we think we understand what we're looking at, everything changes. You won't believe what is hidden inside the cylinder ruin, and by the end of this video, you may be questioning everything you thought it was built for. Stay until the end for our weekly giveaway. It never gets old. We were here six months ago or something. We're looking for a specific spot we found last time, and when you get on top of them like this, sometimes they're hard to find if you don't see them from a distance, but I feel like we're close. Okay, I got the better camera out, so I'm going to repeat myself just because I don't know what got caught on the other one. Now, this is a structure. Look at this, guys. Look at that round cylinder. All the pottery we found up here on top and this whole little canyon right here, like if I put my finger over here, let's see if it'll catch it, like right here, which you couldn't even see from where I was at earlier, there's evidence of habitation there. This is a monster canyon, like if you came up from the bottom, and that's not even the bottom. All right, fellow explorers, there is the beginning of what I'm trying to get to right there, but that is just a piece. It's not at all what has me super intrigued, but this tells me I'm in the right spot, but you can look. That's the cliff going down to it. See, here's another. Oh, look at that. Is that possible? Let me see here now. All right, now that's wedged in there pretty good. Get into the shadows where I can see. As long as everything's wedged tight here, let me just check some of this. Seems like it's been there a minute. I told Noah I wasn't going to do anything stupid today, so I got to kind of honor my work right there too. All right, well, let's go around, and then we can come back. All right. All right, here we are. We found a way down. I'm going to take the backpacks off. We can get down this safely. Oh, how did we not see this last time? This is so exciting. Just going to take the cameras. We get to go see it. So I was about ready to try to climb down that tree. That's what I saw from the other side there. I said, man, I can get on that tree. I can shimmy down that tree right there, but I'm not 12 years old anymore, so I like this other way better. All right. We decided to pause right here and take it in. We're a little bit on adrenaline overload here, just the fact to make it down to this level. I don't know if anyone has ever been to this spot. I mean, we've been to so many places, but this is one we've been after. My hands are shaking. I can't even keep the crazy screen still. I apologize for that. Hey, guys. Hope you're liking the video so far. Just wanted to ask for you all to subscribe. If you do it right now, that'd be awesome, but we also want to earn it from you.

Oh, wow. Old juniper logs right here in the front that wouldn't have been there before. So I haven't even peeked them. There's still part of the roof structure over here. Look at these old juniper logs, Noah. So this was all crumbled when they were living here. Oh yeah. I can't even hardly peek in there right now. I am excited about it, but Oh, I already see something I've never seen before. I'm not even looking inside yet, but look at this right at the entrance. What? Oh, markings. Yeah. I've never ever seen that. Yes. Right there. Never seen that before anywhere on the entrance. It looks like a deer. It sure is right. Here's the doorway rock right there. This is peeking. I know it. I got a flashlight. The floor is just covered in it from this direction. Just the, uh, the amount of debris that must've blown in here. Guys, we looked down a couple of pieces of corn and you know, I'm, I'm so beside myself at finding this place. And then I look up, it's totally overwhelming. Look at the amount of corn in here. We've never seen this before in our life. Never. We've seen, you know, a few pieces here and there, literally thousands. And I got to show you, I mean, I, I cannot believe this. Look, part of the, part of the roof structure still laying here and thousands and thousands of pieces. This was like a double structure, double granary here. So there's one here and then there's like a little opening here. And then this year was another one that you see. But can you believe this? I knew this place was going to be special. I mean, sometimes it's like, Oh, are you going to find it? This right here could be one of the greatest finds. I mean, it's not like a pot, this, that, I mean, that's great when you can do it. I mean, that's exceptional. But to find this, I mean, it's a storehouse. It tells you how they, I always thought that it was like, you know, they grind it up and they put it in their pots and there's a few leftover corn cobs around or something like that, but they store it in their pots, but they must just be storing their seeds and things like that. And, and the corn is just stored in like whole cobs of corn stored, just like packed in these things. This begs the question, when you look at this and you see the storehouse of food that's here, why did they leave? They had food. There's a river down below. So what happened? I mean, it didn't run out of food. Oh my gosh. I cannot believe we made it to this place. And the greatest of all, what's got me more intrigued than anything is right over here to the right. Guys, this is probably our greatest find we've ever had. I mean, to be able to come to this and find this ancient, I mean, it's a round cylinder built underneath over here, underneath this huge, enormous cliff face. And we spotted it like six months ago and couldn't get to it. So we were trying to keep it a secret and we finally found a way down here. And I mean, I, I don't think, I haven't been over there yet, but I don't think anyone has been here since the ancients. And evidence of that is what we just found in these storehouses that's here behind us. I mean, guys, the mystery, it just keeps unfolding. No, here's another structure right here that I hadn't even seen. I see the doorway right here. Unbelievable. I can't take it all in. Not at once. Yeah. See, here was another, there's another little spot right here, tucked in behind. And why wouldn't it be? Look at this. Why wouldn't it be? Still has the little doorway there. Look at that. Oh, this is wonderful architecture. Look at this. Oh boy. Let's just take the outside of it in for a moment. Can't, I can't look in it yet. Look at this. Still perfectly, perfectly intact. Look at that. It's perfect. Nothing broken. Yeah. It stands about seven and a half feet tall. Maybe I'm just looking at the construction. I think the fact that it's round. So the wind whips around it because we're right out here. Sorry. We're right out here on this point. And so the wind whipping around this and not plus look at the way it's, look at the way it's sheltered. I think that's the door right there beside it. I think that's the doorway. And this here has just, this is the wind blowing all of this up in here like this. So let's look right here. That is the door, Noah. That's the door. Let me see what we got here. Might be a bat. Might be a bat. Oh, the door's right there. A bat cave in here. So what was this? What was this place? Yeah, there you go. You can film the roof. There's a little place right over there. A little alcove in there. Film up towards the roof. Okay. Let me get it here. Really hard. There you go. Let me have your light. I'll take them both here. It's absolutely perfect. Look at this. Everything about this is perfect. They were certainly keeping something very, very valuable in here and it wasn't corn. So here's a question to contemplate. They kept something in here that was extremely valuable. The way this is built, the way it's, you know, typically you would find this and you'd say, oh, it's a granary. Everybody says, oh, it's a granary. Well, I'm telling you it's not because there's not one piece of corn, nothing in this place, nothing at all. And not anything. And right here, 50 yards over here is thousands of pieces of corn. So what were they storing? What was so valuable that they protected it right here like this? I mean, it's perfect. Boy, there's a question for you, huh? It kind of opens up all new things. Every time we see something out here, we say granary, granary, storage facility. Well, I don't think we know as much as we think we know. This right here is the first place I've ever seen that's proven that out because I was also the one that was saying granary, granary. Every time I turned around, structure, granary. Well, you would be wrong because that's not what that is unless it was something seed or something that they took with them or something. I don't know. They didn't take that corn, though. We came here expecting the Cylinder Ruin to hold the answer. After finding thousands of pieces of corn scattered throughout the surrounding ruins, it seemed obvious that this structure must have been used to store food. But inside, we found nothing. And maybe that is the most important clue of all. Whatever was kept here may have been too valuable to leave behind. When these people moved on, they took it with them. Was it food? Seeds for the next planting season? Ceremonial objects? Tools? Or something we haven't even considered? We may never know for certain, but I want to hear what you think. If this Cylinder Ruin was built to protect something important, what do you believe was stored inside? And why did they make sure it left with them? Leave your thoughts in the comments below. One thing is clear. This wasn't where they slept. Their home may be waiting on the other side of the canyon. Stay tuned for part two because this story is far from over.
