In Royal Commentraries - Garcilaso de La Vega writes about the tunnels underneath Sacsayhuaman and the 'lintel' stones that roofed the structure. They were exposed and in decay even in the 16th century. There is a section of the wall, towards Cristo Blanco side, where you can see 'inside' the wall...a cavity of space. I've seen images from the 1950's where the field level is exposed, more structures revealed. Even in you video your can clearly see the depressions of such. I feel as though the walls were electrically charged, hence the zig zag pattern....much like the Egyptian heiroglyph symbol for energy.
Great findings! Very educational. People need to wake up and realize history is more then we know. I hope they start digging deeper like they did on easter island and libanon (stone of the pregnant women). I am sure there is more on deeper levels because it is of tremendous age. Keep up the good work!
Thank You, These videos do take some time. I appreciate the kind words. And Yes, there's a lot to uncover and to learn about. Egypt and Peru don't want seam to want to learn more about the Pre-history of their incredible structures. It's really unfortunate. Maybe someday they'll change their perspectives too! Thanks for watching!
People Make Tourism Money, on "Mysteries". There maybe some evidence for a method of "Geopolymer" concrete . Some Russian Engineers have published their findings. If they are correct the very large Stones are Geopolymer concrete or type of plaster filled with large stones(small boulders) as filler. You can examine the deteriorating large Corner stones. A core sample drilled into the very large stones . Then cores can then be tested. The Tourism industry , among others will not allow this to happen.
Cool video! I’ve never even heard of those lentils before. Check out the channel Land of Chem. He has theories that the pyramids of Giza were manufacturing plants. They made chemicals. Like fertilizer. Which would be a huge help to ancient farmers. Archaeologists call every old building a temple. But people have practical needs. They were used for a practical purpose and I think it was to make things. Like you said the assembly line. There are drains on the top foundations too. They were manufacturing something. Great idea on the rooofs above the zig zags!
Not an "assembly line." .. Zig zag walls are built to give crossfires against attackers.The thickness of the walls may indicate construction againts explosive shells? Nobody builds 450 ton stone block walls to process cattle. Gimme a break. It`s a fortress. Occams`s Razor says the simplest explanation is the correct one. We got a massive stone forttress here built by the French with zig zag walls higher than Cusco`s.. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it`s a duck.
Yes, have been there. Fairly easy to see the difference between the Inca stonework and the Megalithic stonework. Our Peruvian guide did not want to discuss what was not actually built by the Inca. Just wanted our small group of 11 to believe that the Inca were responsible for all the stonework. Thank goodness that I did the research 1st. The research into who is responsible for the Megalithic stoneworks just is not known, so maybe it is just easier to say that the Inca built all the stoneworks.
Yah,, and isn't that weird? Not wanting to know the true date regarding the original architects? It's odd how the attitudes in various countries are so different about getting accurate dates. There's the various tepiis that are radio carbon dating to 10 and 11 thousand years ago. There are the pyramids that are dateddto be 300 years older than the Pharoahs that claimed them. Kudos to countries like Turkey and England who are willing to get to the bottom (literally) and learn the truth about our megalithic past. Thanks for watching!
They would only need a lintel of this magnitude if the construction went much higher up over the opening 😮 So where are all the missing stones as well? 🤔🇬🇧🌈♥️👍
Yes, and I should have taken a moment to really show those scratchings! When I go back next time,, I'll really take some better pictures. In fact, I have some. I'll post one of them soon. Thanks for the comment. -H
Its all preflood, some parts destroyed some just moved or tipped, then rediscovered after a few thousand yrs by what we call Peruvian’s and they were very impressed too, so they added etc etc
Great stuff here. The lichen growths on these surfaces is telling. Lichen grows at very slow and predictable rates. On the cut surfaces this is seen as they have much less lichen growth there than on the ancient surfaces showing much more lichen growth.
Thanks for your works; INTERESTING IDEA TO DIG ANS FOUND THE ORIGINAL FLOOR: UNFORTUNATELY THE LOCAL AUTHORITIES HAS NO WILLINGNESS NOR THE RESOURCES TO DO IT; UP TO NOW THE IDEA THAT THIS IS PRE INCAS ALTHOUGH COMPREHENSIBLE AND MORE THAN POSSIBLE ARE NOT TAKING SERIOUSLY INTO CONSIDERATION. SINCE MY FIRST VISIT IN 1977 I ALWAYS WANTED TO GET THE RIGHT STORY BUT DESPITE MANY PROOF THE AUTHORITIES RE NOT MOVING. THIS IS A SHAME;
Look at the circular foundations on top of the hill, which is what's left after the fkn Spanish used it as a quarry for their demiurgic cathedral, that's a reaction chamber, with the same design as other found all over Africa, the Mediterranean and middle east. What reaction was happening in three is hard to say without excavation and chemical analysis, but all these megalithic sites were used in the production of chemicals or of "energy" of some sort. The thick, cyclopean walls were needed to withstand the huge pressure built by the reaction, same as the pyramids, where the small internal chambers were under such pressure that it required those huge pyramidal structures to be built around them. This might sound like a far fetched theory, but there is more and more proof being gathered each year to corraborate it. Also, the original structures, all of them, all over the world, were built in extreme antiquity, far earlier than any mainstream historians will ever be willing to admit, regardless of the amount of proof presented.
You're welcome. I chatted with a guy from Alabama who was there on one of the same days that I was there. He looked around and totally agreed with me. It's all backfill. Done most like by the Inca,, so that they could watch the ceremonies in the field. Everyday that people go there,, they leave thinking the same thing. Uncover it! I'm actually surprised that I'm the first to do a video on this topic. Thanks for Watiching!
That is amazing. It sure looks like you are right but how did you know what the original lintel looked like? Thanks for your video. Man, all the stone work is what blows me away. Those beautiful walls, just incredible how they fit them together. Wow.
Well, I took a good long look at some of my photos of the first stone. And it dawned on me what it is, several weeks later. And that is why I had to go back last year. Please see my first video about that stone. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-viCjTBFPCbQ.html Thanks again for watching!
I get the practical use of the zigzag structure going down would reveal more it's the actual stone cutting how did thay make the blades do you not need something harder than the material you want to cut your still going to be left with to meny questions on how and when personally I think the timelines and the way we date everything is flawed it's got to fit a narrative or you would need to rewrite history it's amazing what was done all around the world but we can't go back so it's all going to be speculation
2:46 '...this could be a shoe, or a foot at least...' *that band looks like an anklet. So that's the lower shin and beginning of the ankle of the figure.* To me what is really quite disgusting and atrocious is that all that gold that was pilfered and stolen from all over Central and South America by the Spanish conquistadors and shipped back to Europe by Spanish Galion... *you can go see it to this very day: for it guilds the ceilings of many of Vatican buildings, some Spanish castles, and is contained in some of the gold crowns and ceremonial items that are used in the Vatican churches.* Remember: just about every single thing in the Vatican city is a priceless artifact, *from the paintings by Raphael, Michaelangelo, Da Vinci etcetera, to the very stones that were placed on the streets, the Romans placed some even.* It's rare that the stolen wealth from a crime long ago can be definitely located...in this remarkable circumstance we know exactly where most of it is. I long for the day when this crime will be recognized and rectified by returning to the best of one's ability, all of the stolen loot. 😎🇺🇸
A lot went to Russia. During WW2, or maybe just before, the Spanish shipped a lot to Russia to keep safe. Then when they asked to have it back Russia said "what gold?"
Please commission a group of artists to use concrete forms to perfectly replicate Lintel to replace missing ones Also please get specialists to replicate ancient stone moulding to replicate perfect rock wall of Sacsy.
5:53 Id agree on everything with exception of your main point. Imv that's not a lintel. Look at the curve next to the left foot that has a another corner attached to it. Imv that indicates that it was a normal wall stone which even could have been placed upside down. Who knows !? If it was a lentil, this curve and corner shouldn't exist, right ?! Also I don't think they cut off the sides afterwards. I think this is the original size of the block. 7:11 Here again, we can see that the lintel stone. looks completely different, compared to the figurine block. 8:47 Also I think you won't find any tools in this area, due to the fact that they most probably only arranged them at that site. The tools did wither away by now or they are hidden somewhere else imv. They didn't use any tools to set the stones imv with exception of some shovels maybe, but honestly I think they did have something better than that.9:10 So my guess for the design intent is that it was a defensive structure or food terasses. In regards to a defensive structure against armies and megafauna predators, it maybe would be highly effective if attackers would have to walk that S line to get into the main part.Those walls were indestructible and pretty hard to climb, so they would have to walk the complete parallel way, to get to the top, unprotected, which would be especially good for giant stupid monster predators. However I like your theory also a lot. It's maybe even more probable.The only issue I see with that is the small space those corners provide. However they still could have done it this way.
OK! Thanks for your input! btw. I'm almost 60 and I could climb any one of those walls straight up, even with a backpack loaded with 20lbs of rock. Anyone who still thinks its a fortress, has never been there. And food terraces? Nope. No need for that. Megafauna predators? If I can climb them, then so can't a sabre tooth tiger. These are really strange stoneworks. And yes, I think the fill needs to removed. Items found need to be carbon dated. Thank you for your comments!
Why zig-zag walls for a production line? Not practical, but traditional for battlements. Lack of obvious door is the only reason that you dismiss the obvious?
Everybody that has been there agrees that it's not a fortress. They are not 'battlements'. Most of Peru's amazing megalithic stonework IS for defensive purposes,, but Sacsayhuaman was/is for something else. Thank you for watching,, and for commenting!
It is not for the obvious? OK...then what is the NOT obvious function? Occam's razor says it is for defense...what is being offered as a more credible function? NOTHING! @@intriguingmegalithicperspe1764
I use the term cattle as simply herds of animals for food. I do not state what kind of animals I think existed in the cusco valley for the purpose agriculture and farming,, not in this video. I just simply stated cattle. Trying to keep it simple. My videos are always brief and to the point. Thanks for watching!
Couldn't agree more re. excavation. Factory walls though, they'd be rather over built and would provide about twenty rooms! I've wondered if, as the aesthetics seem not to be important, there being nubs and scoops etc., then the walls might've been built without great effort, perhaps very quickly, and for a specific reason. I've wondered if the saw tooth shape makes a best defence against a flood? The whole of Cusco has the appearance of a washed out hollow. Maybe a deluge or asteroid caused flood was foreseen 20,000 years ago? ... Don't hold back as you shoot me down in flames : )
The space between the two walls isn't really that big though! And today there isn't enough straight lumber in Peru to build a roof line and structure such as I describe in this video,, BUT one can say that about England today too! And yet the English built the larges wooden fleet ever seen in human history. Lol!
Something I saw whilst looking into the material relating to the ET phenomenon was a suggestion that these interstellar objects use some kind of very high frequency electromagnetic fields that causes mass reduction so profound that the craft actually phases out of plain or 3D view. This isn’t fantasy as experiments have been conducted by noted people like T. Townsend Brown that proves this is possible! Perhaps the same technique was applied to these stones or even more intriguing the material from which the stones were formed! I say that as one thing I’ve noticed about the blocks is that many have small nodules at their base. What if these nodules were the stone material hardening back to ‘real’ space after the mass altering technology was switched off and gravity caused the nodules to form at the base? I believe there is much we don’t know about the world we live in and much less about our universe.
A straight wall will eventually fall, the zig-zag pattern is for reinforcement, like coregated cardboard.They would have made perfect supports to build roofs,just like he said.This guy has studied these buildings far more than any of you "armchair monday morning quarterbacks" could ever do. These people spend all their time studying this, while y'all sit in your moms' basement, eating cheetos and drinking pepsi!😏
Interesting observations opening new ‘doors’. He old was the ‘primitive’ culture responsible for the original construction? Could it have been concurrent with the pre Younger-Dryas loss of the megafauna? Our history is dear more exciting than we can imagine.
I like your idea of an assembly/disassembly factory. Too many archeologists are bound up in explaining common things as bloodthirsty pagan sacrificial artifacts. All those 'fertility idols' are more likely ancient versions of Barbie dolls/GIJoe action figures kids toys, universities, corner convenience stores, and more. People are people no matter the civilization. The US had mound-works that were destroyed to disguise prior civilizations that might lay claim while Egypt/Peru/etc today don't want the narrative to change from their peoples creating these works and only moving in on abandoned structures. Because then the ideas might get out there are repeating calamities that destroy global civilizations with questions about frequency and causation?
I'm thinking about illustrating more about what was being assembled in those long zig-zagging wall. But I worry that it might put me out there as a bit looney! What are your thoughts?
I thought it looked a bit modern but love the idea when I saw it. I used to think that way about the Anasazi ruins. What the roofs were like. I was exploring some video of the dogon tribe and they have so.e interesting cliffside villages. Most of the roofs were like a grass umbrella shape. The buildings looked very similar.
I saw an aerial view of Sacsayhuaman, one side has the walls, what about the other side covered with vegetation? Why one side with walls and the other with none? And what were the buildings on top...?
There is some stonework/walls on the other side. But it's minimal. And it doesn't look like it was ever much of anything. There is a path that goes all the way around. It's not zig-zagged either. On the other hand, just 2000' south, there is Kenko! And although Kenko is a 30th the acreage of Sacsay, it does have zig-zag megalithic stonework on the city (downhill) side. Weird.
Ancient architects channel posted a video 2 yrs ago where he referenced an excavation work by a Peruvian archeologist during the 1930’s. I wonder if buried in this report there are evidences of excavation in the pavements
Matt Sibson (Ancient Architects) finds some great archival info! I have no idea how he finds that stuff. Nor do I any explanation as to why what he finds hasn't been found by Nova or the BBC.
I'm quite certain the Inca filled it in so that they could have a place to stand and look out onto the ceremonies and activities and competitions being held on the field right there. They still hold ceremonies of various types there,, and people stand on that same filled in area to watch.
Maybe they are not interested in pre-Incan history for the same reasons why the Egyptians dont seem to be interested in the pre dynastic times. They dont want to admit inheritance. Couldnt the area between the zig zag walls be terraces for crops?
I considered that too. But there isn't any need to terrace, when there's plenty of land above as well as below (in the valley) for planting. Also, as you walk around on that 'backfilled terrace' you find lots of rocks that are the size of your shoe just beneath the surface. Nahh,, nothing was ever planted there. The Inca filled it in so that they could sit up there and watch the ceremonies and the competitions that were enjoyed in that large open field. You get a nice view of the field from that first level. Thanks for watching!
I've been there several times. There are features like big holes in those walls that just seem whimsical or put there as examples of the builder's talents. I have never found out where the blocks were quarried, they just tell you "nearby." I could be wrong about that.
Did you watch the video? I'm stating that it's time for just one little part of Sacsay to be excavated? To be returned to its original floorline. Then to go from there given carbon dating and clarity of acknowledging that it used to be an enclosed structure. Thanks for Watching?
I did look at them the first time I was there. And they are just something indecipherable that was scratched into the stone by the spanish or whomever decided to keep the stone from being placed under a church or a bridge. I should have mentioned that when I was there last year. Thank You for pointing that out,, and my apologies.
Everything has to do with the GREAT FLOOD , they know it it will come , Machu Pichu its a refugee place with agricultural terraces to provide with food the survivors , That zig-zag wall may have a purpose to deflect the high speed water , and every stone used in polygonal buildings its geopolymer ... byway , that ring around the figurine head could be a lifebelt
what a great find and perspective, I like the geopolymer theory but it still had to be set quickly to get those curves, as well as sample the lintel insert they should also sample the nodes... thanks for your good work ✌😎
Thankyou. Excellent camera work best lighting i've ever seen of this or any other ancient site. I'm blown away by the detail shown. brilliant well prescribed theories too, much food for thought. Liked and subscribed !
The pre-Columbian peoples didn’t have cows or horses and many other animals we take for granted as always having been here. I support the channels opinion and know we aren’t getting the “full” truth by the mainstream historians but at least let’s post opinions with more accuracy.
I agree completely. Universities around the world spend so much money to dig up dinosaurs. Yet, we can't learn anything from the creatures that roamed the Earth 64 million years ago. But we certainly can learn something from a society that had the capability to soften quartz rich stones just a couple thousand years ago. Lord knows what would be found betweeen the walls at Sacsayhuaman. Gobekli Tepi is being dug up. Let's get to the bottom of Sacsay!
There have been teams up there using ground penetrating radar. Russians, and foreigners of various types, they were looking for caverns and tunnels or rooms. The did confirm that there aren't any tunnels between the walls. Beyond that, they only stated was that the fill is consistent and as deep as the outer wall is tall. There are several videos on that topic. I don't have the links to them though.
I never get tired of seeing pictures or footage from these megalithic structures. About the nonsensical theories people can come up with I do, but well. You say these stones were cut with a saw ,and even show what such machines would look like according to your understanding, so maybe you can expand into how they made these three-dimensional cuts for the stones we see in these walls at the end of the video by using your proposed method?
