In 2002 Japanese stone masons (without loin cloths) rebuilt a large wall relying on primitive techniques and tools. If this wall was featured on the lost technology part of the internet it would be described as mind befuddling impossible precision.
Strange how people so fascinated by stone are so reluctant to look at what any stone mason, other than their go to guys who can't be that good to start with, actually can do.

"Look to the people who work with stone, not the people who point at stone." Never a truer sentence spoken.

@fredd3.14 Год назад

Having been to Japan and the countryside there, I also noticed similar stone works. Just seeing how these are not mysterious in ways thought, as well as other places over the world, has really caused me to lose sight of myself. I was misled by people, who are also probably misled. The worst thing is, having tought I had a rational view on these stoneworks for many years. Thanks for what you do, it is important work, although hard to acknowledge. Just talking from the masonry perspective here, which obviously leads to more questions and answers, but at the core of it, you are hitting where it hurts (speaking as a person that came from hating the mainstream view, into the alt, into here).

This is NOTHING CLOSE to what the ORIGINAL Polygonal wall builders of the past were doing! The walls that you show 1:50 are LEVELS better than anything the "restoration" team could ever dream of doing. There is perfection, and there is decent. What the ancient Polygonal masters did was perfection.

@TheMoneypresident Год назад

A body inside a wall would create a cavity later and diminish its strength. That was a story with the great wall. The 2 brick story is my favorite. Forman came into a area and orders a number of bricks to build local garrison. Number was 2 shy of an amount. Town leaders said we will give you the full amount. He said no and left. They did anyways. Build was completed with 2 extra blocks sitting up on a ledge.

@varyolla435 Год назад

Exactly. While aesthetically pleasing these structures in some cases were in fact defensive positions - aka "castles". So creating walls which are high and wider at the base to slope inwards disperses the weight above outwards to better sustain the weight. Then when earthquakes hit - and Japan as noted noted is a highly seismic region - the walls can better withstand the movement. Similarly using stone inner and outer walls with earthen filler in between is an old technique for creating battlements capable of withstanding battering. If they simply stacked stones tightly one atop the other than the wall could in time be battered down more easily - and as alluded be more susceptible to earthquake damage. So like others around the world they built based upon their local environment + available technology + and aesthetics per the local culture. As the video alludes cultures at times copied each other since the iron flanges reinforce the walls during earthquakes and these have been used for millennia in other cultures. Man is the most adaptable animal = and that is the real technology. "Pattern recognition" is our greatest asset. 🤔

The quarry deposit predominantly determines the masonry work that follows, especially everything built in Ancient times.

Im still not sure, do the re-constructions ever look as good as the remaining original walls? Reconstructions don't seem to be as good, you can tell immediately when you see them, Oh that's a reconstruction. Even in this wall ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f9wGOXXoCuY.html ) made from scratch in the US by a Japanese mason is no where near as good as some of the originals I've seen in Japan. So the question comes up..could some of these walls have been found by the Japanese emperors, and maybe repurposed? From the looks of it very few "original" walls remain, but those that do, seem to be way better than any attempt to reconstruct or any new walls made today. I have yet to see a modern attempt at a "Megalithic/cyclopean" wall that looks better or as good as the originals. I'm going to Japan this year, can't wait to visit some of these castles and see what is original and what is reconstruction.

@jonajo9757 Год назад

Quality varies. Walls that are seamless are only so from the exterior. From the interior, it's just a bunch of precisely fitted rubble. Also some were repurposed if I remember, but not the way you'd think. Often, they'd just expand upon a pre-existing foundation by just building over it, and maming a larger wall.

@stevebrickshitta870 Год назад

Interesting to see those wedges and how they worked. Innovative technique. I wonder if they are a uniquely Japanese thing, or it just isn't widely used.

@varyolla435 Год назад

It reflects the often lost aspect of such work = culture. In the East there are considerably more historical sites compared to what you see in the US - which is the major target audience for LAHT. These individuals still value their history and use as noted ancient techniques to restore old sites to a similar appearance. In the US you see historic sites and they may even at times be restored similar to what you see here. Yet much of what you see is newer and is either replaced with more of the same or else is modernized - hence losing its historical aspect. Naturally LAHT will dismiss this as always claiming the use of modern tools as their purported proof. After all confirmation bias rules all for them. Yet using modern tools merely = speeds up the process to save time. That is what these tools were created for after all. Yet the basic techniques behind the modern tools remain. More importantly as noted before = the person behind the tool. If these masons did not understand what they do and the nature of the stone they worked then the use of modern tools would not alter this fact. "Man" = is the real technology.

Yes, the traditional work in Japan is amazing. I posted a clip from the Japan episode of the documentary series " what the Ancinets Knew" on magic mirrors. Though the Japanese carpentry is off the charts, incredible joinery and yearly competition on who can plane the thinnest slices of wood. Blades so sharp that leave smoother surface than finest sand paper when seen under the microscope. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zs9X-XzFGHI.html Though if you look up their joinery, it's a rabbit hole watching how skillful they are. Artwork more than a mere craft.

Volcanic mud resulting from the global deluge left soft sediments. Decendants from bab el ( sumeria) used simple tools to shape the mud. The mineralized floodmud hardened over time ( petrified).

You make it sound all good and easy. Yet You just brush over all the hard parts. Like moving and actually fitting the stones so they fitt well. "Can't fit a paper between..." dude you can fit a book in them cracks.

@SacredGeometryDecoded Год назад

Links in descriptions to stone masons fitting much more complex shapes using ancient techniques. I mention that in the first few minutes. Also a playlist of videos of people moving and accurately placing megaliths with “primitive method”. They are rebuilding this wall to its original condition. The corner blocks are well fitted and the others in Japan I show are entirely well fitted stone. You are brushing away the answers by “just asking questions”. M as he it good and easy by putting the effort in and linking the answers. If you won’t put in the minimal effort into looking at the sources spoon fed to you it’s not my problem but yours. Based on history in the comments I know you don’t actually care. It’s a belief system and the Holy Questions most be preserved by avoiding answers. Avoiding looking for them and avoiding when they are dropped on your plate in front of you.

some of the convict built buildings in Hobart are very fine.. in brisbane all the convict work was pulled down except for 2 places. 1 being the old tower mill.. the stones have been cut curved. or hewn? so it’s a round tower.. similarly the non facing work is common brick. an interesting building. especially how they cut the blocks curved.

@varyolla435 Год назад

Allow me to state the obvious. If you refer to aesthetics = tastes vary from culture to culture. Also Japan was a feudal nation for centuries. Thus local constructions reflect those done by local leaders as opposed to "national projects" done at the behest of a emperor like figure. In other words an Inca King who decrees a place be built for themselves has the resources of their empire at hand. A local daimyo on the other hand depending upon their wealth and what they control is limited in what they might spend on a project. Also Japan is highly volcanic incurring many earthquakes which would periodically damage their buildings as well as typhoons. So they built based upon their own styles + available resources + and with the understanding that what is built will at some point likely incur damage and thus need to be quickly repaired. So instead recognize the nature of what we see. They via highly adaptive structural architecture created buildings etc. which were more than simply stacking stones. Like you see with other sites in Asia etc. they adapted their designs to local environments reflecting understanding of things like hydrology, seismic activity, earth engineering etc.. They are indeed visually appealing as well as structurally unique.
