The God Culture

Welcome back, researchers! In this compelling episode, we dismantle the Ryukyu Theory once and for all with irrefutable evidence from Juan González de Mendoza's historic accounts. We trace the clear and consistent geographic data from early explorers—Barbosa, Pinto, Pigafetta, and more—all pointing to Luzon as the true location of Lequios. No more confusion. No more Jesuit-influenced distortions. This is history locked in by maps, primary sources, and even official Spanish archives. Mendoza's geography doesn't lie: Lequios = Luzon. The Ryukyu narrative? Pure propaganda.  🔔 Like, Subscribe & tap the bell for more in-depth historical truth! 📖 Visit us: https://thegodculture.org  📝 Read our blog: https://thegodculturephilippines.com Let’s uncover the truth—together.  #Lequios #Luzon #ForgottenHistory #RyukyuMyth #JuanGonzalezDeMendoza #TheGodCulture #BiblicalHistory #ExplorationTruth #JesuitMyths #AncientMaps #Zipangu #HistoricalTruth #SpanishArchives #Magellan #Pigafetta #Barbosa #Pinto #Mendoza Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/thegodculture]

What if the real Lequios wasn’t Ryukyu… but Luzon all along? In this eye-opening deep dive, we expose the long-buried truth behind Duarte Barbosa’s “175 leagues to the east”—a footnote that leads straight to the Philippines. Journey through maps, records, and forgotten evidence as we reveal that the powerful maritime empire known as Lequios was never Okinawan… it was Luzon and Batanes. We break down the 16th-century evidence, expose how Jesuit cartography rewrote geography, and unleash the “Jesuit Shrink Ray” that shrunk the China Sea just to fit an agenda. This isn’t conspiracy. It’s cartographic confession. ✅ Topics Covered: Barbosa’s 175-league clue decoded Why Lequios = Luzon, not Ryukyu Trade wealth, gold bars, and “very good wheat” Adlay wheat, Elemi resin, and the incense trade Over 10 royal maps confirming Luzon as Lequios Mendes Pinto’s 250-league bombshell How the Jesuits distorted the distances The collapse of Ryukyu Theory The truth wasn’t buried. It was footnoted.

Long before the Philippines was known by its modern name, it was home to a powerful and wealthy civilization—the Lequios. Described by Portuguese explorers like Antonio Galvão and marked on 16th-century maps like the Dourado Map, the Lequios were skilled shipbuilders, traders in gold, and a dominant presence in Southeast Asia. So why were they erased from mainstream history? In this video, we dive into forgotten archives and ancient maps to explore how the Lequios were not Japanese as some believe—but pre-colonial Filipinos. Evidence places them in Luzon, trading up and down the coasts, with links to major volcanic events like the eruption of Mount Pinatubo. From the capital of a majestic city to gold-rich trade routes in Pangasinan and La Union—this is a legacy worth reclaiming. ✨ Discover the truth that colonial propaganda tried to erase. 📚 Read more on our blog: https://thegodculturephilippines.com 👉 Subscribe, Like & Share to help reclaim the history of the Filipino people. #Lequios #PhilippineHistory #LostCivilization #PreColonialPhilippines #Galvao #DouradoMap #AncientMaps #FilipinoHeritage #TheGodCulture #Ophir #LuzonHistory #ReclaimHistory #HiddenHistory #MountPinatubo #AncientAsia #TruthInHistory Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/thegodculture]

In 1538, Gerardus Mercator published a world map that preserved one of the last cartographic witnesses to an ancient truth—labeling the Lequii Populi at 10°N, right in the Philippines, not Japan or Ryukyu. This episode of The Smoking Quill exposes how Jesuit and colonial manipulation led to centuries of geographic confusion, wrongly relocating the Lequios and Zipangu to Japan. But Mercator’s early maps, along with Ptolemy’s Barusse and Basacata Isles, all point to the Philippines as the ancient Isles of Gold, Aurea Chersonesus. From Barbosa’s 1516 identification of the Lequios in Luzon, to Mercator’s correction of Ptolemaic errors in 1569, we trace a clear cartographic trail to Luzon, Mindanao, and Palawan as the real ancient lands of gold—Chryse, Barusse, and Basacata. 🗺️ This isn’t theory—it’s documented truth. And even as Mercator eventually bowed to colonial pressure, his maps preserve the original memory. The truth was never erased. Just buried. 🔔 Subscribe and explore the maps they want you to forget. 🌐 Full library: https://www.thegodculturephilippines.com 📖 Read our blog: "175 Leagues to Luzon" 👥 Join us at https://www.thegodculture.org — because YouTube refuses to notify subscribers.

📜 Watch as The God Culture walks step-by-step through Pliny’s ancient maritime itinerary—leading not to India or Japan, but directly to the gold-rich Philippine Islands! This isn’t speculation. It’s the Smoking Quill. In 77 A.D., Roman scholar Pliny the Elder outlined a maritime route from China to islands full of gold and silver—Chryse and Argyre—later known as Ophir and Tarshish. This route has been buried under centuries of colonial revisionism, where scholars mistranslated, misapplied, and misdirected his clear words. But not anymore. 👉 We show the actual rivers, promontories, and coastal cultures described by Pliny and prove—beyond doubt—that his Isles of Gold still exist today. 👉 Every step is cited, mapped, and decoded in full fidelity—nothing cut, nothing assumed. 🔗 Full article with citations: https://thegodculturephilippines.com/pliny-s-maritime-route-to-chryse/ 📚 Free eBook Download: Garden of Eden Revealed: The Book of Maps at https://www.thegodculture.org/books ⚠️ Academia erased Chryse.
