Hi.
I found a mistake while watching the most recent Joe Rogan podcast w/ Graham Hancock (I find this stuff extremely intereseting!)
I need to make a correction, though: Graham mentions something about the ancient Amazonians squaring the circle (a problem we attribute to the ancient greeks). The pictures that are shown, though, are *not* of the "squaring the circle" problem (i.e. - Find a circle w/ the same area as a given square); they're images of a circle inscribed in a square—which is a lot easier to do.
