About this listen
What if the ancient world wasn’t built by people like us at all? In Part 5 of The Buried Empire, The Biology of the Builders, Transition Radio steps away from architecture and into anatomy. Mark and Lynna examine the “Greek Profile” found on statues, coins, and empires — a facial structure that doesn’t exist in modern humans — and ask whether it was artistic idealization… or biological truth.Drawing on suppressed medical journals, anomalous skulls, vanished Smithsonian collections, and the abrupt disappearance of this face from U.S. currency in 1909, this episode argues that empire was once embodied in a different kind of human form. Not metaphorically. Literally. This is a forensic investigation into who built the Old World — and why their bodies had to be erased from history.
