Part 3 of my investigation into the evidence for ancient high technology! In this video, I clarify the arguments made in previous episodes, respond to some of the discussion around these topics, and then dive into the details of logistics and construction methodologies surrounding the creation and movement of some of antiquities largest and heaviest monuments from around the world. From the Unfinished Obelisk at Aswan, to the mighty Trilithon and recent disoveries at Baalbek, how can these ancient achievements be explained with the primitive methods of ancient civilizations?

As a mechanical engineer and manufacturing engineer with experience moving heavy things about, I find the material you investigate fascinating. Out of the field of videos available to view on the subject matter and people creating them I find yours to be of the highest integrity since not only do you provide actual video footage from being there yourself, you don't add unsupported wild hypothesis or unproven conjecture on methodology. Please keep up the great work. I would make one request; I'd love to see a video about lost ancient underground 'cities' or large scale tunnel/chamber complexes. Turns out they are all over the place and considering the effort to build an underground city by carving it out of bedrock, you have to wonder why? And when? (Bosnia, Romania, China, Turkey, Egypt, Peru, Mexico etc)

@Alex Shilson No, all I'm saying is out of the field of videos available he doesn't make wild unsubstantiated explanations, he just asks questions, and points out where more credible research is required. Plus, he's on site himself, not leaching off random other fractured factoids from other research. I don't think he's passing himself off as anything other then a person interested in ancient megalithic construction but the series would benefit at this point from some genuine and verifiable research into methodologies to duplicate the field evidence.

In my classes in the early 70s at Berkeley where I gained my M.Arch, Spiro Kostoff gave me knowledge of art and architectural history regularly receiving standing ovations at the end of each lecture, I.M. Pei, the designer of the glass Pyramid at The Louvre (among many other historic structures of our time) personally taught me steel reinforced concrete design, and Lewis Mumford (The City in History) argued with me about the value of vernacular architecture as the basis of then-contemporary Sea Ranch, we were all apparently suffering under the ignorance of the popular Egyptology of our time.

@@mrt5354 I am no expert, but I work with stone and understand that the crystal structure of granite would NOT survive the melting process, it would look like another stone altogether. Fact. So anyone claiming they melted and solidified granite is wrong, plan and simple. I would LOVE to believe otherwise, but it is pressure and time that causes the patterns you see in granite, and that cannot be created by melting it. That and the fact that there is no known lens that melts that stone. Or any stone.

Ben, as an electrical engineer I am in the science camp, meaning I consider myself and engineers, physicists, chemists, medical doctors, and a few other groups all scientists. And I greatly appreciate your opening comments about scientific method and honest debate and hypotheses, as there are very few topics that are “settled science” (as some in the media like to claim). Your research raises so many important questions, especially with respect to tools used for granite carving and cutting. It saddens me to hear any person say “those ideas have been debunked”, or similar dismissive comments. Thank you Ben!

You could explain maybe attempt the replication process using a pantograph but it still doesnt explain (i) the flawless geometry of the original or (ii) the tooling required to perform the cuts without eroding the cutting tip or pantograph mechanism itself. And without lubricatred, rolling element bearings to maintain geometric precision or the mechanism. It would wear out in minutes and they would be chewing through such machines many times daily just to remove millimeters of granite.

Exacto and Correcto !!! I have always considered the possibility that this advanced civilization had some power source lost to our present civilization which was able to lift these large pieces with more relative ease than our present chemical combustion instruments and vehicles. Again I state it is extremely frustrating that the present closed circles of academia will not open up to this. I also contend ( but cannot prove ) that there has been some active efforts by the establishments to suppress new findings as they do not jive with the standard closed circled history. There is also the possibility that there has been some active hidden investigations of some of these sites in efforts to find adavnced technology for military / corporate purposes perhaps. Just a thought: An international disclosure of a highly advance world wide civilization ( not as spread out as our current one ) to the present world population would be something that would unite us.....a condition that certain powers would not like to have because of their intended control of the populations.

@@ptauagpt I think you hit the nail on the head with the military/corporation bit. Three things we know for sure about the pyramids: 1 they had technology that accomplishes tasks to a high standard of quality in different ways that we would use today. 2 the most complex products of ancient Egyptian technology have been found in tunnels under the pyramids and in their chambers. 3 Many chambers of the pyramids have been explored but what they found is not public information. It's very easy to imagine that the egyptians used methods of manufacturing, lifting, or energy generation that would be insanely valuable to be the only company/government to learn how to use. To me that makes a lot more sense than the truth being hidden just to protect the egos of egyptologists. This part is purely conjecture but I think it's interesting that Bob Lazar described seeing UFOs while working at area 51 that use the same type of propulsion that we now see in these videos released by the government, and claimed that one had come from an archaeological site.

Nice work! I have been watching your investigations into ancient architecture & monuments, & I must tell you - I am from the USA & am a natural stone worker since 1991 & I can, with no doubt, tell you these stones could never have been fabricated with Bronze & sand. The perfection is unbelievable. Huge slabs perfectly flat & polished, interior boxes, tube holes & symmetrical carvings in granite, could never happen. I challenged a 'bronze believer ' to a test. I gave him a steel kitchen knife and a hunk of granite & told him to use sand, cut it, then polish it, perfectly flat like Egypt did, but with steel. I gave him a year to do it. He just smiled as he realized it's not possible. Take that & understand Egyptian 'historians' say the great pyramid was made in 19 years - a set block of 5 to 50 tons every few minutes. Why do people scoff at researchers trying to decode & understand the past, when the only thing laughable is their ridiculous story they try to sell us. Rock on truth brother! We argued over 5000 year history not too long ago. Now it's up to 13000 years history & counting. 3 stages of truth - 1st ridiculed. 2nd violently opposed. 3rd accepted as being self evident. ....almost there!

I think this solution for the Osiris shaft checks all four stipulations on the list. How they moved the multi ton block down the Osiris shaft is pretty simple. After they completed the construction of the tomb, they simply back filled the entire project completely full of sand. They moved the Circophicus block on top of the filled in shaft. Now they start digging all the sand back out. As they do, the block slowly sinks down the shaft. There will be no ropes to break. No sudden shift of weight causing the block to free fall. The block would always be sitting on solid ground in a sense. With each bucket full of sand scooped out and sent up by rope, the block would settle a little further down the shaft. Finally, they will have got the block exactly where they want it, not by lifting but by taking away sand. They could control the blocks decent with mathematical precision. A lot of people overlook solutions like this because it's not hi-tech enough. They were hoping it would be some kind of super advanced technology. This solution does fit all four stipulations on the list talked about in the video. If you think it does not tell me why it doesn't. Have a good night.
@sshreddderr9409
@sshreddderr9409 10 месяцев назад
no, this doesnt work. you would get it down one level, then it needs to be moved horizontally, so you cannot remove sand anymore, and there is no space for a big apparatus or many people or leverage mechanism in the chamber, and people have barely space to slip into the chamber. eventually it needs to be moved horizontally with almost no space. also there is a small tunnel from the osiris shaft in the direction of the pyramids. this tunnel has perfectly angular surfaces, and is too small for a human to fit through, so there is zero possibility for any human to carve it.

@Walter Melon Well, actually there isn't any evidence that diamonds were known or used by the ancient Egyptians, and as you point out our carbide tipped tools are made of steel with soldered tips, and I can hardly see any other option, it couldn't possibly work with soft metals such as bronze or copper, even if, a big if, diamonds or other hard materials were available, a bronze saw rotating at high revs as the tool marks show, wouldnt stand the apllied forces, so really this is a dead end argument. I also believe these amazing feats of engineering are far older and inherited by the dynastic Egyptians, so don't we agree?

Because it ignores all the evidence right across Egypt and Nubia and the Nile delta in support of one agenda, to deny the mother continent its heritage. It would rather we believe beings came through portals like the mythical stargate and just for the hell of it created great cities, temples and monuments in an inhospitable environment, only to Fcuk off never to be seen again with no trace of anything but human endeavours, rather than accept and admire the fact that the greatest human civilization is not Caucasian. It actually speaks volumes about where the agenda sits. We should instead give the peoples of mother continent props for producing this wonderful legacy and quit this relentless unedifying conspiracy nonesense. I could say it was 'ewoks' who built stonehenge, and there would be people willing to suck it up. Incidentally, Egyption civilization pre-dates stonehenge by well over 1000 years. As impressive as it is for physical endeavour, dragging huge blue stones hundreds of miles from Wales to southern England, it pails in comparison to Egypt's wonders.

@lexluthier8290
@lexluthier8290 3 года назад
A few points if I may: 1.) I can't help thinking we're muddying the waters by asking how the 'ancient Egyptians' achieved these monumental works. The term conflates the creators with dynastic Egyptians - the pharoahs and their ilk. It seems likely to me that they inherited the monolithic creations that leave us in awe these days, in the same way that the Incas and Aztecs inherited their monolithic works. In all parts of the world there is obvious evidence of more primitive homages to the monolithic works having been built on, or around, the really big, technologically superior works. As far as I know, there is ZERO evidence of precise monolithic work appearing on top of less competent structures. The lower construction MUST have preceeded the higher levels, QED. I'd rather we referred to the older architects as ancient Nilotians, or even as the ancient global civilisation, since calling them ancient Egyptians tends to steer people to wonder how the Egyptians did it with the tools available to them at the time. They didn't - at least that's my belief. Sure the AE's did build some good stuff, but the Sphinx? Uh uh - Schoch and JAW's work points conclusivley to it being much older than the dynastic period. Likewise artifacts such as the Serapeum, the hyper-symmetrical statues, never mind the countless other megalithic sites found all over the planet. The painstaking work by Ben on this channel, building on groundbreaking stuff by Carlson/Hancock/JAW etc all makes a compelling case for there having been a previous, advanced global civilisation. 2.) So how did the real ancients do it? We must try to avoid thinking of a previous civilsation in the same terms as ours - that always provokes the same counter-arguments of 'so where are the flying cars then? Where are the cities? The archeological record?' Randall Carlson has the answer to that. No, we consider advanced technology as being based largely on electricity and electronics, money and possessions, and fossil fuels. Our society has developed over the last 5,000 years, give or take. From bashing rocks together to nuclear power, supercomputers, and the Kardashians in five millennia. Yet we know that anatomically modern homo sapiens has been around for at least 100,000 years, possibly much longer. So what then? We sat on our collective arse for 95,000 years and did NOTHING? Or maybe we developed a society radically different to our own. I applaud those who have put forward alternative theories below, but I don't subscribe to the idea that gravity was somehow much weaker in the past, or that rock had different physical characteristics. That would seem to be too much against the laws of physics and nature. But, we do need an alternative to the pathetically inadequate copper chisels, dolorite pounders and countless thousands of people supposedly dragging multi-hundred ton blocks all over the planet. What about sound? I believe it was Tesla who posited that the universe is based on harmonic vibration and frequencies. What if there is a power that we have yet to fully discover that would enable us to manipulate matter using some form of sonic tool? Joshua supposedly brought down the walls of Jericho with sound (trumpets I believe, but that's probably just a 'modern' fallacy). Certain 'fringe' (hate that word) scientists have shown some success in levitating small objects using focussed sound or electromagnetism. It's all basically vibrations of one kind or another. What if they're on to something? Which brings me to.... 3.) I don't have a solution, just a gut feeling, but I do have a pertinent question. Many of the depictions of the ancients in carved reliefs and murals in the Sumerian record and in places like Gobekli Tepe show a large being (usually with a wavy beard) brandishing what looks like a pine cone in one hand, whilst holding what Hancock euphemistically describes as a 'man-bag' in the other. Does anyone categorically know what these items are? They are quite ubiquitous, and always shown being wielded by those with 'power', however that may be defined. My gut tells me that we have something in plain sight that is a massive clue to the source of that 'power'. Unfortunately I don't have any idea what that might be. Discuss. Sorry for war & peace - had to get this out there at 3am so I may have rambled a bit. Keep it up Ben, you are a contemporary treasure.

I will embarrass myself here and ask this question: Is there any possibility that the direction we are looking at all of this is incorrect? We keep asking, "How can these stones be worked and moved using the tools that these ancient cultures had at hand?" - is there ANY value in asking "Has stone, over time, and for some unknown reason, changed it's properties so much that what we experience today makes what the ancients were working with seem impossible." I know this sounds ridiculous but I base this question on the work that has been done calculating muscle mass and the overall weight of some of the biggest dinosaurs that walked the Earth. Some of the features of the dinosaurs (long extended necks) would have been impossible for them to operate in today's gravity (something in the range of 50K lbs per square inch - enough to easily bend/break a steel girder). For these creature's muscle and bone to withstand the pressures exerted on them, Earth's gravity would have had to have been 1/3rd what it is today. If the environment that we experience today has not always been the same - could the properties of the materials we find on Earth today have also varied over time. Was rock lighter, or somehow more malleable at an earlier time in our history? I know it's an odd direction to go - but these questions are perplexing and they deserve being approached at ever angle if we are interested in finding an answer. Love these videos. Thanks.

One needs to think outside of the box to come up with a logical explanation that fits the known facts. No one is doing that. Everyone is still inside the box of thinking that ancient stoneworks were worked as stone but they were not. Instead they were poured, possibly all of them. The secret of ancient stonework was not in mechanically quarrying it and shaping it but in mixing it in a powdered form and casting it in molds, including even of gargantuan size. I've found and shared the evidence proving that over and over and over. If you want to learn the still undiscovered truth you can find it in my face book group: Ancient Stonework Mysteries.

@alphanumeric1529

Careful though, the scientific support for a global flood has been almost exclusively produced by young earthers who believe the planet and universe are only roughly 6,000 years old (A claim not made in the Bible, and actual simple knowledge of the Hebrew language used in Genesis very likely defeats this notion, specifically that the Hebrew states that YHWH REMADE the heavens, and further that we were to REPLENISH the Earth, not simply plenish it!). For example Christian young earth academics reject the notion of the Younger Dryas (sp) catastrophy because evidence for it suggests that it occurred before the creation of the universe. I hope that you can see hypothesies and theories are being built to support ideologies by almost all sides in this information/reality war. It would be so much more profitable to attempt to discover the truth, then understand how the Bible relates to the truth. If Christ is the truth, why would we try to obscure the truth?

@Vadim VeeVoit we still haven’t discovered all our oceans I just don’t like how they throw out anything that goes against science it’s clearly seen there’s mechanical cutting marks throughout the world in India Baalbek China Peru this was a worldwide thing they were able to move stones miles away and not get attacked worry about weather. Walk into any wood shop you’ll see discarded broken or bad pieces you don’t see that with these structures it would be evident a stone that size no scuffs no fractures perfect cuts how is that possible I worked in a wood shop how precise you have to be with cutting if you cut to much you have to grab a whole new piece where are the defectives

@Vadim VeeVoit I’ve asked people how are these feet’s achieved and the answer is they just did it like I’m so interested into how these things were built and cut how did they lift 1000ton stones with ease 30 feet in the air no one else shares that curiosity like I want to go to this country’s and just take apart a section and see how it was done

Your arguments are very well thought through and make sense especially where it comes to lifting these large objects. Where I think further investigation would be valuable is where it comes to lowering of these boxes in the Serapeum. If the rooms were filled with sand before the boxes were moved into the rooms and then the sand is slowly removed, the boxes would go down slowly. The way to test this hypothesis would be to raise a corner of the box and see if there is any remaining sand under the box as some sand would be left which is impossible to remove completely. Of course, permission to raise a corner would never be granted so we are stuck where we began. I am curious though if you know if "Block and tackle" technology was in the proverbial "Toolbox"? All things considered you make a lot of sense, and I am very intrigued and will watch everything you produce which is of very high quality and I commend your effort.

Had a thought inspired by some construction. The quarrying scoop marks such as those around the unfinished obelisk, remind me of the marks made by clay spade bits in clay and hard soil, but much bigger! Thoughts on one of the tools used to quarry the rock in ancient times was some kind of massive rotary hammer/drill? It would explain one tool being able to do a lot of the work, with a change of bits you could go from quarrying obelisks to drilling holes.

Massive fan Ben. Absolutely love your channel. Such incredibly interesting videos and insights. Quick question on tube drills specifically, a topic that just completely blows my mind. How would we know that these stones weren’t found 1000’s of years later and drilled when much harder drilling materials and tools were available. In other words what is the first documented finding of these tube drills?

When I visited Baalbek as a student decades ago it was plainly stated by the local academic showing us around that the base of the temple, including the 3 large stones, was pre-Roman. I do not recall that assertion as being in dispute. I take it the mainstream position has evolved.

@andrewtataj497 3 года назад
@@AustinKoleCarlisle You would be doing a disservice to UnchartedX and Brien Foerster's arguments to not listen to them though. Even Ben in this video acknowledges the scientific method is one of an adversarial system where vigorous debate becomes the crucible on which irrelevancies and falsehoods are burned away to reveal the truth. It's got nothing to do with the 'why' their thoughts are being questioned, the 'why' is part of the process. Besides, good, honest debate has become such a rare thing in this world watching one unfold is a rare treat. Like watching a movie that isn't based on marvel superheroes. ;)

I really think you should do a video on logic. I transfer taking logic 101 in college and I realised immediately that this is something that should be taught to everyone, at least once in highschool and maybe touched upon in earlier grades. You see fallacies used EVERYWHERE in supposedly serious and depth discussions, debates, education, news, politics, business, etc. I'm always happy when I see someone mention it, which is rare. Thank you.

There must have been some unimaginable catastrophe. Truely unthinkable forces.

Love your channel, being heavy highway laborer, Ive done practically everything to lumber beams dirt, stone concrete metal, your tools must be at least equal and of greater material strength than the work piece, and there lies the problem, what tools or process is required to make what wouldbe your hardest substance as tools like diorite, and why dont we find broken parts or machinery lost due to carelessness or buried or sunk, as these do happen, we know they happen, bcz we find stuff all the time, maybe the timeframe is just too vast and they succumbed to elements and time itself
