I saw the article above and laughed. It reminded me of this TV psuedo doc, Great Lakes Copper Heist.
The premise was that since copper was mined by First Nations peoples they were trading it to ancient Greeks, who were rowing across the Atlantic and into the Great Lakes for it. Natives were not marketable enough so they used a racist fiction to try to sell it. They have the balls to call it the History Channel. LOL
