Thule - The Lost Civilization of Ancient Greece

2025-06-19

Delves into the ancient Greek concept of Thule, a distant northern land described by explorer Pytheas in the 4th century BCE. Often dismissed by his contemporaries, Pytheas’s account suggests a real journey into the Arctic world. Was Thule a real civilization, a poetic metaphor, or both? This episode explores geographic theories, cultural myths, and the symbolic power of Thule as the edge of the known world—where ancient knowledge, mystery, and possibility converge.
