Join the Front Lines in the Fight Against Pseudo-History With a 6-Week Live Course That Pulls Back the Curtain on Historical Deception - Only 40 Spots Available
You’ll examine the wildest claims, the sneakiest fallacies, and the real method behind historical investigation. This is your chance to reclaim the past—and sharpen your mind in the process.
Enrollment closes July 12th or when spots are taken.
Dear History Lover,
If you’ve ever seen a headline, a documentary, or a YouTube video, you might run into statements like these:
“Archaeologists are completely baffled by this discovery.”
“No way that this ancient culture could have made this!”
“Could a lost advanced civilization have once ruled the world?”
“Mainstream historians and archaeologists can’t be trusted”
I am sure you’ve witnessed the growing tide of pseudo-history and pseudo-archaeology — narratives that look like history, but aren’t.
These stories are often exciting, dramatic, and seductive. But they’re also misleading, and sometimes dangerous. They distort the truth, manipulate evidence, and erode our understanding of the past.
This course is designed to teach you how historical facts are actually discovered.
And it will change how you see history forever.
But first…
Who am I?
You might be wondering about your guide through all of this.
Let me introduce myself.
I'm Dr. David Miano, a historian of the ancient world with over 20 years of experience teaching at the college level.
My passion lies in unraveling the mysteries of the past and bringing them to life for modern audiences.
My research focuses on the history of the Near East and Eastern Mediterranean in antiquity, ancient timekeeping methods, the chronology of the ancient world, the literary and intellectual history of ancient cultures, and comparative world history.
I've dedicated my career to understanding how ancient civilizations shaped our world.
But I'm not just an academic.
I'm also the creator of the World of Antiquity YouTube channel, where I share my love of history with hundreds of thousands of fans around the globe.
I believe that history should be accessible, engaging, and relevant to everyone.
That's why I've designed this course to be more than just a series of lectures.
I want to take you on an immersive journey where you'll not only learn the facts but also feel the drama, understand the stakes, and see the connections to our modern world.
With my expertise in ancient history and my passion for storytelling, I promise to make this an unforgettable experience.
I'll be your personal guide, answering your questions, clarifying complex ideas, and helping you see history in a whole new light.
I can't wait to experience this adventure together and uncover real history in an age of myths.
Introducing...
History vs. Hype: The Anti-Bunk Toolkit
History vs. Hype is a 6-week interactive journey that gives you the tools to spot fake history, think like a historian, and see through the myths that dominate pop culture, conspiracy circles, and sometimes even the classroom.
You’ll learn how the historical method works, why pseudo-historical claims fail, and how to engage critically with the past—without falling into the traps of sensationalism, bias, or ideology.
And you are going to love it.
But, of course, I am going to say that.
So here is what my past students say about my classes:
“Dr. Miano’s engaging style and wide knowledge brought the subject to life. The other students’ questions and observations were an unexpected and pleasant bonus.”
“The courses offer a wealth of information I wouldn’t have otherwise found, put into context that’s not otherwise obvious, and this keeps me wanting more.”
Who is this course for?
History Lovers Who Want the Real Story
If you love reading about ancient civilizations, watching documentaries, or visiting museums, this course will give you the skills to separate fact from fiction—and appreciate the real past more deeply than ever.
Students and Educators Who Need Better Tools
Whether you’re in a classroom or leading one, this course will help you confidently evaluate historical claims, spot fallacies, and model critical thinking.
Critical Thinkers and Skeptics
If you value evidence, logic, and intellectual honesty, this course will sharpen your ability to assess claims about history, archaeology, and human origins—and push back against misinformation.
Frustrated Viewers of Online Misinformation
If you’ve found yourself shouting at the screen during a History Channel special, or wondering why your friend suddenly thinks ancient Mesopotamians had Wi-Fi, this course is your antidote.
“In this age of pseudo history and pseudo intellectuals, these courses are a breath of fresh air. Content-rich, fun, interesting and accessible to people from all academic backgrounds.”
Let me show you exactly what you'll discover in these six transformative weeks:
Why this course matters
“The past isn’t just behind us. It’s under attack.”
Everywhere you turn, someone is rewriting history—with no evidence and no accountability.
You’ve seen the claims:
“The Great Pyramids was a power plant.”
“There was a lost ice age civilization that gave rise to all of earth’s civilizations.”
“Historians are hiding the real story.”
It’s not just clickbait anymore. These ideas are becoming mainstream.
Every day, millions of people are being misled about the past.
People are tempted to believe it—because it feels exciting, or empowering, or somehow more "real" than the boring, careful work of scholars.
But here’s the thing: history isn’t just about what happened. It’s about how we know what happened.
When pseudo-history takes root, it doesn’t just create confusion—it undermines the very idea of evidence, of expertise, of truth itself. It replaces investigation with imagination. It trades nuance for narratives. It reduces complex, diverse civilizations to cartoonish myths, often warped by modern ideologies.
The Cost of Pseudo-History
When fake history spreads, it’s not just a harmless distraction. It does real damage:
It erases the true accomplishments of ancient cultures
It undermines education and public trust
It destroys our ability to think critically about the past—and the present
This Course Is Your Antidote
You don’t need a Ph.D. to fight back.
You just need the right tools—and someone to show you how to use them.
In this course, you’ll gain the skills to:
See through the illusions of pseudo-history and pseudo-archaeology
Understand the historical method like a scholar
Ask the right questions—and help others do the same
Speak up confidently when history is being distorted
Be Part of the Resistance
This course isn’t just about learning facts.
It’s about taking a stand—for truth, for complexity, and for intellectual honesty.
Whether you're:
A history lover tired of the noise
A student or educator who wants clarity
A skeptic who values evidence
Or someone who just wants to think better...
You are part of the solution.
