    Brazil huh? Well, that is another one for the "Where did ancient greeks go?" para-psychology classes.

    -Alpha Centauri,
    -Japan
    -Easter island.
    and now... Brazil.

    Now, the reason I find this all very uglee to say the least is that Ancient greeks did travel a lot, from Norway to S. vietnam (the furthest greek finds are in S. Vietnam in the location of Oc eo), but people tend to disbelieve it because of wackos like the one above.

    After IG state was formed a big emporion (comercial colony) was built in Taprobane state - present day Sri Lanka, from which Periplous documents all the places Ancient Greeks, then Romans, (basically greek crewed greek speaking vessels) went. This is how we know of Malaisia (golden coast) and other far away places.

    In Oc eo, S. Vietnam is the furthest place greek trades have been found. I have no more knowledge of this excavation, unfortunately.
