Hey, check out Latitude 25°27'35.06"N / Longitude 7°52"48.92"E
I can't tell if these are modern or old but they reminded me of the little handbags that you see in a lot of ancient artwork/statues.

All of these glyphs seem to be located on outcrops/hills/mountains; imagine that what you see as sand today is actually water and these are shores & islands around a shallow "lake"... or everything that was in the valley was just submerged with water/sand/residue as part of this massive water mass flow East to West over the Sahara (which is clearly visible on all satellite photos).
BTW, most of these glyphs look like variations of the Mount Meru/Crescent on the hill/Squatter Man phenomenon (polar configuration/alignment, Saturn sun etc.).
As always great & thorough work; and humble as always. Kudos.

i worked with satellite imagery for 9 years. we cartographed a lot of north africa. i would regularly see these kind of structures all over. we were told to mark these things as "holding pens", you know? walls to keep in sheep or something. i always wondered if that's really what they are.

Nice to see respect amongst like minded channels 👍

Love this channel he definitely deserves so many more views

Brilliant discovery i appreciate the time and effort that’s gone in to this video. It’s suggested to be 2-3000 bc due to a discovery of bones found by a French archeologist but my French is bad. I however don’t think that all of these geo glyphs will be graves, especially the oddities. I wonder are there any footage on the ground of any of these oddities and if you ever find a picture can you do another video showing us ? Even if it’s only 1min follow up. I have a great love of Atlantis (rechat structure) and with the classified Adam and Eve book about the poles shifting causing cataclysmic events that happen every 6, 500 year, I came to your channel through bright insight and I wasn’t disappointed. I hope you find an answer to your questions at some point in your life but I doubt these structures will ever be fully/truly explained.

Lot of research says that desert area you show here, was once a green, lush area for thousands of years - with running streams and bodies of water. Grasslands and forest. Lots of wildlife. and plenty to eat. And this overhead view looks exactly like small communities - areas built to protect where people lived and sheltered their animals. Animal husbandry was going on then too. The overhead view, looks exactly, like a whole lot of little villages running along at the foot of the mountain range - where they had the benefit of runoff from rain. People lived in enclosures and walled areas for protection, for who knows how long - there is plenty of evidence this is a fact. With isolated tribal groups still living this way. So these roundish structures you show, were practical - they look like tribal enclosures for family groups. The "boomerangs" may have been built as water management - when it rained, to gather and preserve water. Or to divert water from flooding areas where people lived into ponds. Hard to say without going and looking around on the ground. Making observations that could clear this up instead of making uneducated guesswork. It wouldnt be easy to do because it is so hot there now. You indicated you found around 500 of these structures. So they more likely had a practical use. There are these roundish structures, and boomerangs and then there are the "geoglyphs". Two different things going on. I dont think the roundish structures and boomerangs are geoglyphs. The geoglyphs different in my view - not the same thing. Of those geoglyphs that show figures - I think were built as mandated by elite, harsh religious authority figures. To keep the populace busy, tired and to prevent them from rising up against injustices such bondage, human sacrifice, and the unequal sharing of wealth. The elite know that keeping the populace under control, in the name of religion and superstition hasnt changed much. Even 15 or 30 thousand years ago.

The more books and vids i read and watch about lost ancient civilizations thinking id be closer to understanding a wee bit, the farther and more mysteries crop up! All too fascinating! Im glad there are videos like these!

Love this kind of narrative, thinking on your feet. These circles like many megalithic sites were built in the most unlikely places. You had to journey to get to them.
Thanks brother.

Nice to see Google Earth used for a video. First video I've watched in a long time. I much prefer smaller channels videos to the non-stop loop of Giza videos and other popular places from big channels ....where i don't learn a damn thing. :)

The airport is really interesting using the same shape as the geoglyphs you were analysing.

I think that some of them could be ancient fish traps (small stone walls placed on 'rising/lowering level river/ocasional lake') - as i saw a lot of them are placed near 'riverbank/shoreline' (darker background) but 'in the water' (sandy/brighter colour of background) - mayby You know what is height of this glifs ?

Great work Andrew interest and fascinating as always

I was just introduced to your work from Jimmy Corsetti, and WOW ! Thank you ! Your videos are so interesting ! I have worked in the precast concrete industry for almost 40 years and I think I have an idea how to move big heavy things. I also know a thing or 2 about cutting and shaping concrete and I cant come up with any decent ideas about the nubs or pinches. Although your comments on language are interesting. Perhaps assigning some religious significance to those particular stones. While following this video I came across something interesting. I noticed a crater that looked very similar to the richat structure, called Tin Bider Crater. I made an assumption that perhaps the meteor that caused the crater also caused the Richat. I know everyone says the richat is volcanic but perhaps it was initiated by an impact then continued to react over time volcanically. It seems to be in line with the Tin Bider as the earth rotates, There are also Tons of impacts along that line. Again thank you for all the work you do !

How do we reach the conclusion that these are Glyths? Could they not just as easily be the remnants of ancient nomadic dwellings?

Crazy theory. A massive electrical event glassed this area destroying everything. When the chaos died down people wondered back into the area looking for survivors or remains of loved ones. These glyphs are some kind of marker showing where someone or small community lived.
Just a thought.

Hi Andrew, I got here through Jimmy and his Bright Insights channel, glad to 'meet' you, keep up the good work

Jimmy from Bright Insight brought me here. Wonderful work mate.

Been following these also recently. Some definitely seem much older than others. Take a look at 26°32'21"N 5°21'29"E. No roads or apparent paths leading to it. Very large complex looking structure or city.

What are coordinates for structures at 22:22 and 22:54?
