The MOST precisely made granite object of Ancient Egypt - and why it's NOT geopolymer!

Ойын-сауық

An examination of the most precisely made granite object that has come from Ancient Egypt! A precision carved box housed deep underground, we get into the details of the site, the box, its history and discovery by Flinders Petrie. I also give you some thoughts as to why I don't believe this object, nor any of the granite objects of ancient Egypt, are made from geopolymer, or some form of ancient concrete!
Many thanks to Mark, Brian and Jahannah from the UnchartedX Egypt trip for sharing some of their footage and images with me! Brian took the excellent picture in the corner of the box with the pen. Check out Jahannah's channel, she is making excellent vlogs from the trip: / @funnyoldeworld

    Ive worked with marble & granite for over 25 years. There is absolutely no way that was done with primitive chisels. Even with todays technology and tools, this is incredibly hard to carve out. To get the inside corners so precise is almost impossible. Whatever it was that they used, it was definitely powered by something other than muscle, granite is way to tough to chisel like that. They must of had some power source which was at least equivalent to electricity, and used diamond tipped tools or something even tougher. Great vid, Glad i found this channel- been binging on your vids for a couple of days now. Thanks for the great vids that you produce, i feel as if im there on location. No other channel gives that experience.

    Here's the thing that boggles my mind. Imagine ANY tool... That tool will be used to create something more valuable/complex than the tool itself. Here, the tools (talking about rocks here) are so well made that they are beyond our comprehension. Which leads me to believe that the pyramids probably have usefulness that we have yet to discover. If pyramids do not have a purpose, it's the modern equivalent of constructing millions of huge cranes and piling them up to make 'modern art' or something... I know that a ton of people believe that the pyramids have more to them than meets the eye, but when you see what it took to make them, it's impossible that the result would be more primitive than the entire process of making them. It would run contrary to ANYTHING you can think of... We're not using jet engines to make paper sheets, we're not using processors to make tables... The current narrative is that they had the means to do something like that and they made something that is smaller (in terms of usefulness) than the sum of its parts... This doesn't add up.

    @@piercezhang8153 I still have no clue to this day. But most pyramids (and only the first ones are interesting as I think that the more recent ones are copycats and Egyptians didn't have a clue either) have many features that seem stupid at first glance leading me to believe that the purpose eludes us. Entrance always on the North side, why? Entrance always going down, then splitting and going up. Pointless stress reliefs in the so called king's chamber. Queen's chamber always perfectly aligned 90° from each side of the pyramid. Every entrance of any king's chamber is always in a corner... why?! Every temple they ever made has its door centered. But the room where they were putting a Pharaoh in has a door in the corner? So strange. Feels like blasphemy almost. My money is on sound/vibrations. The unfinished obelisk in Aswan looks like the rock was melted and scooped. As if they could make the matter vibrate to soften it up and then scoop it. Vibrations can also levitate things (we can do it with tiny things), maybe they knew how to levitate huge things. Which would answer MANY questions. So, let's say they discovered "vibrational levitation", and in combination with huge rocks, these were their tool. The fact that they've built the pyramid with that leads me to believe that pyramids could probably either harness or create even bigger amount of vibration. Why? I don't know, I told you, I'm still clueless :)

    I work in design and drafting for aerospace products. I've read about this box before and it blew my mind. If we were to make something like this today, with modern CNC machines, it would be quite difficult and VERY expensive, and I think we'd have to build some specialized tools to do it. Keeping the features you mentioned to such tight tolerances would not be resultant to the manufacturing process. Meaning, unless we intentionally wanted them to be that tight, they would not be. That means that those who made this were so far advanced of us that this was just easy for them (which is mind blowing for obvious reasons). OR, at the very least they were as good as we are now, in 2021, and intended for those features to be that perfect. If that's the case, we have to ask why? Just to show off? I call BS. Most people would not even notice how perfectly it is made unless you pointed it out, and even then, most would not find it impressive because they don't understand how hard it is to do. No, I think think these features had a functional purpose, an it certainly wasn't to house a dead body. So what was it for? It's crazy how much we don't know about our own past.

    As a stone worker and all things stone fabricstor for the past 20 years, I can say that in my company, we put beveled edges or "eased" edges on stone to prevent them from chipping and damage. Natural stone is most fragile when it comes to accidental damage. With that being said, as a professional Mason, this box was not made with copper chizles and hammers. No. Way. By the way, granite is one of a kind. Melting it down is impossible, as you would not get the same crystal structure anymore, which would just turn it into crumbly lava like rock.

A lot of your daily stone countertop installation includes "seams" which are usually glued together by a resin or a 2 part epoxy compound. Because the stone slabs are smaller than some dimensions of the projects, "seams" is an artistic choke point in the countertop fabrication process. IT is imperative to make the two different pieces of stone as smooth as possible across the seam and as level as possible, because people pay money for that shit. Nobody likes imperfect stone! Some particular projects can involve sandwiching different slabs of stone to make more girthier granite or quartz monuments or tomb stones. The sandwich ingredients process involves gluing the stone like a sandwich, them shaping it. It all involves highly concentrated epoxy or some sort of plastic compound to bond. Thats the only way I see this box being made. We do not have the technology to carve that out of one giant rock and shape everything so precisely. Our most advanced hand held tools are crude and not as efficient to tackle particularly tight corners and leaving everything clean. Our diamond technology is based on a set of grit levels which is really annoying and time consuming. This technology seems to have utilized a "one size fits all" approach. So the answer to your question is no. We can't replicate this today. Especially out of Rose granite of all things for fucks sake!

    Such a great video! You're a very rational skeptic. I'm a geologist so I know a granite and a limestone when I see one and it's no doubt those are what I see. Here's my 2 cents. A bit long winded but there is a lot to cover and I might as well give it some effort seeing as you've given a lot of that yourself in making this content. The granite stone you show looks like an alkali-feldspar rich plutonic felsic igneous rock. The dominant mineral by far is the reddish orange alkali feldspar and the minor components are the white (quartz & plagioclase) and dark (biotite & amphibole) minerals. Quartz is transparent and plagioclase is more opaque. If you saw more quartz relative to plagioclase then this would be an alkali-feldspar granite. If you found more plagioclase relative to quartz then this would be an alkali-feldspar syenite. It has a porphyritic texture meaning the feldspar crystals are larger than the crystals of the other minerals. Every magma chamber has a different chemical composition because the specific part of the crust that is being heated and melted has its own rock composition and formational history. Therefore it is possible to do a chemical element analysis of the carved stone and match it to the host quarry stone. This is what geochemists would do. Veining appears minor, at least from the footage you showed. Veins are 3D fracture planes created during deformation events after the rock has been formed. The voids are then filled by superheated mineral fluids (generally silica/quartz). These veins represent geotechnical planes of failure for mining engineers. So for this precise engineering work the block was clearly chosen very carefully by skilled labour who knew a thing or two about rock mechanics. To the point of geopolymers: Granite/syenite is the solidified (crystallised) form of magma chambers deep below the surface, made of continental crust melts in this case. The large crystals are created because the minerals have lots of time to grow due to the slow cooling inside the magma chamber. So the minerals have time to crystallise into distinct, large crystals of feldspar, quartz, plagioclase etc. Under a microscope you would be able to see the sequence of crystallisation (the order in which the minerals crystallised). This cooling takes many many years, thousands of years even. The extrusive forms of granite and syenite are called rhyolite and trachyte respectively. These rocks are the same chemical composition as the magma chamber but physically they appear different. They form by the rapid cooling of the magma as it hits the fridge-like temperatures of the atmosphere, going from its liquid phase above 700°C down to 25°C in an instant. It's like a process of flash freezing. The minerals inside the extruding magma have hardly any time to grow before they are cooled below their individual solidus temperatures, where they turn solid. The cooled rock is therefore very fine grained so can be very difficult to distinguish from another fine grained rock and would require a microscope to see the crystals. Felsic rocks like granite and syenite hold more volatile gases like CO2 and are also very brittle when cooled so rapidly so they tend to erupt more explosively than the slushy soft basaltic lavas of mafic magma chambers like in Hawaii. What I'm trying to say is that melting the granite and pouring it in a mold would be very hard. Moreover, the rapid cooling time (even if you waited years at a time) would only produce very fine-grained stones. I also don't see any cemented kind of stones in your footage. Those stones are quite clearly crystalline igneous rocks. As for the limestone, the carbonate sedimentary rock itself is essentially a fossil conglomerate made up of compressed and crushed up shells of dead marine organisms. You'll find large fossils preserved in a cement of smaller fossil fragments which are themselves surrounded by even smaller fossils. The more you zoom in the more fossils you'll find. Again, if you somehow managed to melt limestone and pour it into molds the stone would have zero resemblance to the natural version.

I saw a video of him recreating poured limestone. (not sure about granite) The proof of his theory, that every stone that solidifies has a magnetic orientation - so if they were poured in situ - every block should be oriented the same, whilst if they are quarried then put into place those orientations would be random. He made the measurements and states the blocks have the same orientation.

    Yeah heating limestone might not melt it, but rather burn it and you'll lose a lot of it's weight as CO2 gas. Limestone is just calcium carbonate, CaCO3, so heating would break that up and create CO2 gas and calcium oxide (good old industrial lime). Limestone doesn't have iron, or the magnetic ions of iron so is not magnetic. When Mg is chemically added in nature it becomes hard dolomite. Fe can substitute for the Mg but it's still hard dolomite, not limestone anymore. The Fe dolomite might be weakly magnetic but it takes a lot of specifically magnetic Fe ions to become noticeable. Usually, if dolomite is magnetic it means the rock sequence has separate, fine layers within it specifically composed of high Fe concentrations, generally chemical sedimentary marine deposits called ironstones. The solidification of rocks doesn't mean they get magnetised automatically. Magnetic iron needs to be part of the melt rock composition in order to freeze their magnetic alignment when they turn solid (called the Currie Temperature). And the iron needs to be concentrated to create noticeable magnetic fields that can be measured. A limestone isn't usually magnetic unless it is interlayered with ironstone. Granite can only be magnetic if the Fe mafic minerals are high in concentration, and in the right ion ratio, to form magnetic minerals like magnetite or pyrrhotite. Iron rocks need to have the magnetic Fe ions to be magnetic. I'm not a specialist in geochemistry or geophysics to speak deeply about the process of measuring poorly magnetic rocks for their magnetic orientations. Magnetic rocks have a magnetic field called a remanent magnetic field. It's the field that is frozen in when the rock was formed. However, a weak remanent field may not be strong enough to show up above the background magnetism of the Earth's current magnetic field. You'd need to be able to measure the 2 fields so a non-magnetic rock like limestone would be very difficult to measure separately. If the Earth's magnetic field is measured instead of the remanent field in the blocks then of course they will all seem to have the same orientation. So you can use powdered limestone to make new blocks I suppose. But the fossils will be truly microscopic because those are the only sizes that survived the crushing and milling machines that made the powder. The process doesn't create new fossils, it just destroys fossils that are too large and preserves fossils that are small enough to survive the process. To preserve larger chunks you'd probably need a fine-grained cement material to cement the chunks of limestone together. If you find visible fossils and no signs or contacts with cement material it's probably not man-made.

    I have a Masters Degree in geology. There is NO way that box is made of powder or molten rock - the crystallinity of the rock is clearly genuine granite; it stems from slow cooling (thousands of years) happening far under ground at some pressure. If you melt granite and pour and let it cool under ambient pressure and temperature, you would get either glass (obsidian) or a very finegrained "volcanic" rock, rhyolite. Forget about powder and molten rock. Super interesting video, just like the other ones. 👍👍👍

    I don't know about anyone else, but the geopolymer theorists are driving me nuts. I've been saying that the geological properties of granite just don't work like that for quite a while, not to mention all the obvious evidence from quarry to finished product virtually littering Egypt. Other places, perhaps there's a case, but in Egypt? Not a chance. Melt down some granite and see what it looks like, you won't end up with granite when you're done.

    As a geopolymer camp person I don't think anybody credible is disputing the incredible granite carving work. But the common building stones have been conclusively shown at both Egypt and at locations like Puma Puncu that under electron spectrography have straw in the samples of the middle of the blocks, and the spectrographic analysis shows the constituents of concrete cannot be denied. I think this makes a lot of practical sense. Save your skilled stone masons for the Granite work, and the common blocks nobody cares about go ahead and pour via geopolymer techniques. I think a balanced position can be taken. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pJpt061ygbfSoZM.html - start at 35 minutes to see the Scanning Electron Microscope results of the rock samples.

    @@KittyBoom360 Oh, granite can be replicated, it's just not feasible to do so. Those separate minerals have to be at just the perfect temperature for one to crystallize and form while the rest are still molten, then slowly cooled until the next mineral crystallizes and/or solidifies. It would take centuries or more for all that to happen consistently enough to make a granite conglomeration that would be recognizable as a granite. Heat them all up together and then let them cool within a timeframe that would be usable to a human and all you're going to get is volcanic glass. It's not magic or fairy dust, it's just geology...we know the processes involved and unfortunately it requires some level of understanding in the subject before it becomes obvious.

    In the case of the obelisk (same at Easter Island on the statues), it's 2 part process. 1. First rough cut is in the form of the 'scoop' marks by way of melting either melting or altering the molecular structure somehow to be able to carve or scoop it with ease. I would suggest a hi-tech tool that could change the molecular structure of any type of rock at various depths from fine 1-2mm up to a foot (I say roughly a foot as that is the width of the 'scoop' marks) that it would be in such a state of flux that it would be free to be shaped or removed. This is just to get the basic shape required. (a lot like cutting down a tree and running the log through the sawmill to cut the size you want, you then take that piece of wood and give it to a carpenter to lave into whatever you want to create) 2. Once the rough cut was achieved, then the second part of the process was to finish, either by cutting or laser type devices to give the final smooth finish to the object in question. (no I have no idea what tech on this part, maybe even the same device set on a different mode or setting for all I know) 3. Transportation. They would have to use some sort of levitation/anti-gravity type tool to transport (as crane type devices just wouldn't cut the mustard). And if they have devices that are capable of molecular state altering, then they are pretty much smart enough to have a levitational technology as well.

When cutting stone by laser the surface is very rough due to this microexplosions. In a homogenous crystalline structure like metal that does not occur and thus metal can be cut precisely by laser. That's why stone is cut by high-pressure water jets or by saws. The unfinished obelisk shows regular scooping marks from some kind of rotating grinding abrasion tools. Like an excavator machine. And they are all the same width, so definitely a machine tool. Forget Zahi Hawass with his slaves pounding diorite balls against the hard granite... :D)))

I used the term "Laser type device" more so as a definement in a technological device that is capable of pinpoint accuracy and uniformity in terms of cutting...hang on can't use that, you will take that literally as a blade of some type...slicing...dissecting ability. Another similar example would be the hyroglifics found on many obelisks, they have the 'Laser like appearance' or better still, an 'engraved type appearance'. More to the point was some sore of tech that finished it off perfectly smooth and straight. And yes, there is clear evidence that saws of some description was used on various assorted objects, there is no question on that. Many even leave telltale striation marks of such cuts and drills. As to your rotating grinding abrasion tools...not so sure, they are smooth as a baby's bum with no finite striation marks anywhere to be seen, unlike other objects.

At some point, the portraitures were erased, or destroyed. What really interests me, is that some of the stones show an acid-bath exposure, I assume to help in removing the portraiture. That is story #1. Story #2, I am finding humanoid portraiture in NASA, ESA, and Roscosmos postings of Mars, and even some Moons of the planets, visible in the sourced displays, with no Photoshop necessary. Story 3, by sheer accident, I stumbled across humanoid portraiture on the walls of the Puerto Rican Trench, starting at the shelf level of the Atlantic floor, -19,000 feet, and descending all the way to the floor, at -27,000+ feet now underwater, of course. (Average I am guessing at -22,000 feet). You are looking for clues to previous exceptional technology, I think these are sheer proof examples. Good luck, great work.

It was about a foot thick and four by six feet in area. They used it to calibrate some of the machines and tools. This company wound paper. What really got me though, was that the big slab was finished and final calibrated by hand!

    As a mechanical engineer we use large granite slabs as precision flat reference surface plates. I believe there is a very relevant point to think about, that is the method of how these plates are made. The precision flat surface is created (or at least finished).......by hand. No machines, but just a second flat plate to wear in the work piece. Critically, the more you use the tool plate the flatter the tool becomes. In other words by rubbing two roughly flat objects together they both become flatter and flatter. I believe that is how the surface is finished with the sarcophagus. These precision flat surfaces are used today for creating other flat and straight components. Granite is the perfect material for this purpose as it is both stiff and very stable mechanically and thermally. I have a granite straightedge in my workshop used to setup other precision machine tools. - I would love to explain this more to you and perhaps show you the stone working techniques.

    I fully agree with you: not a "geopolymer"! Taking a simple 10X jewelers loop magnifying glass and looking closely at granite shows the quartz, feldspar, mica and other mineral grains actually to be individual crystals that have all grown together, interlocking each face into and tightly up against all adjacent mineral faces. This is consistent both with (for example) quartz to quartz grains and quartz to feldspar, mica, and what other mineral crystals present in the specimen. Looking closely at this tight interlocking where (again for example) a quartz grain lies up against, say, a feldspar grain, very clearly shown the two minerals meeting and pushing against each other as their respective crystals WERE GROWING. This very tight kind of meeting between two different substances CAN NOT be accomplished by geopolymer. Whether ground to a powder or some more corse aggregate, when the slurry dries or cures solid (as in modern concrete), 10X magnification will show the individual components relatively tightly up against each other, but there will be no trace of the type of meeting between the grains that only occurs when such grains are crystalizing, and, as they do so begin pushing against neighbor grains...actually inter-locking. At higher magnification this is thoroughly proven as these mate-ing surfaces will exhibit the tiny give-and-take of growing crystals pushing up against each other with much much more pressure than simply liquidized particles can achieve.

One used is EDM with a copper electrode they letirealy melt and shape the different material until complete. My experience in design and development of creating shapes has been in mold making. My thought is that many of these big granite rocks were done with sound vibration. Application of high frequency sound can duplicate similar results. Definitely a high frequency tool either hand held and mounted stable onto the outside flat square corners then able to apply the technology I CLAIM is what they used. Also it could have been instead been molecularily had it's molecules changed to become solidified to be molded into those shapes. I have years been studying this phenomenon and have come to my estimated beliefs. I have 50 years in the machine and metal trades.

    It's the same reason why mainstream science is so slow at accepting new facts contradicting decade-long beliefs - some of them are not interested in pursuing truth, they would rather sit on their asses and reap in benefits that come with scientific titles, rather than do some legwork. Let me give you an example, you'll laugh your ass off. In his "Magicians of the Gods" book, Graham Hancock paints a story of professor J Harlen Bretz, geologist in the 1920s. He many times visited Channeled Scablands in US, a feature that Bretz saw and based on his findings during his escapades there, he formed a theory of a massive flood that run through the area after continental glacier melted very abruptly and suddenly. He saw no other explanation for the destruction of basalt deposits in that area, cause it had no marks of eons of wind or water erosion. To put this into perspective, 1920s was a time when the most popular view of world was gradualism - the idea that all geological changes are slow and boring in nature, and they occur throughout millions of years. So for Bretz to come out and say some geological features of Channeled Scablands were formed literally in a matter of days made him a laughing stock of the academic world, and the word "catastrophist" thrown at him had a really demeaning sound to it. It wasn't until 1960's (!!!) that someone I cannot remember the name of right now, created a foundation and literally dragged the most vehement opponents of Bretz's theory (even bought them flight tickets!) to Channeled Scablands for a few days of field work, and showed them what Bretz saw nearly half a century earlier. They were all quiet and visibly perplexed, how can one not be if the evidence was a few hours of flight away for 40 years and they didn't even bother looking? "We are all catastrophists now", one of his opponents said. Geologist J. T. Pardee helped Bretz as he found evidence of an ancient glacial lake in North America, so Bretz and Pardee continued their work for over 30 years, gathering evidence meticulously. Wiki quote: "Bretz defended his theories, kicking off an acrimonious 40 year debate over the origin of the Scablands. As he wrote in 1928, "Ideas without precedent are generally looked upon with disfavor and men are shocked if their conceptions of an orderly world are challenged." I'll close this story with last Wiki quote: "National Geographic observes: "As philosopher Thomas Kuhn observed, new scientific truths often win the day not so much because opponents change their minds, but because they die off. By the time the Geological Society of America finally recognized Bretz’s work with the Penrose Medal, the field’s highest honor, it was 1979 and Bretz was 96 years old. He joked to his son, “All my enemies are dead, so I have no one to gloat over.”" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J_Harlen_Bretz This, my friend, is why some academic figures are not interested in truth - because to be an expert in a certain field, and to admit you were wrong your entire expert life, makes your credibility dive to the Mariana Trench, so they're more interested in keeping status quo rather than advancing our knowledge. Luckily, not all of them. Just enough of them to make people really interested in pursuing knowledge bounce off a wall from time to time. Which is sad. So when this very academia paints a theory as "fringe science", I need no further recommendations to at the very least read what it's about. Cause it sure ruffles their feathers. PS: Another reason is that most of academic world expects theory to be ready and proven, with all the facts brought to their beds together with breakfast, but in Bretz's case, even that didn't help so I skipped over that factor.

Although in the floor, the angle seems to match the angle of the box found in Illahun, which sits on a level floor. Obvious questions arise; why is there a slant, whether in the floor or in the granite box, why was it done with the floor in one location and the box in another and is the box once located below Menkaure in a place where it can be examined? These construction efforts are significant- materials, human effort, finances, time, and indicate a specific necessity/purpose for the chambers and tunnels. The absence of decorative features and hieroglyphics, indicative of burial locations identifying the dead and their accomplishments, and nothing to suggest that this space was used for communal gatherings or living spaces...there must have been a utilitarian purpose. To me, the angles, slants and vast tunnel systems suggest a purpose related to fluid dynamics.

    Every type of matter has it's own unique harmonic frequency signature. If you direct sound waves at an object at a certain frequency, you can disrupt the atomic bonds of that material. I find this extremely interesting. To provide some context as an example; Remember the bridge that was built in America? The one that started wobbling in the wind, so much so that it ended up destroying itself and falling into the river? The wind blowing against the bridge managed to resonate at the harmonic frequency of the bridge's material composition itself, and this started the bridge to vibrate, then oscillate and eventually collapse. It's likely that several sources of sound waves are directed at a convergence point, so as to intensify, amplify the resonance. I also believe that directing the converging waves from different directions can triangulate a "sweet spot" whereby resonance can be pinpointed, much like how lasers can 'cut' or 'burn' a specific location WITHIN a piece of resin, or glass. I think there is a technology, lost to us, that can do the same thing with stone, or in fact any material, since everything has a resonance frequency signature. I must point out here, that if the sound waves are precise enough, they can 'cut' away parts of material, like a saw can. Perhaps the actual cutting edge blades of these tools were actually made from sound waves themselves. Frequency, Sound, Vibration. Overlooked by modern science, suppressed by modern industry... (possibly because it threatens too much of our capitalist top-down system of wealth and class, by liberating us from manual labour, and therefore putting an end to a Human workforce, the working class). But that is a story for another day.

    Thanks for a very stimulating and well-presented video. This granite box is indeed a masterful achievement. I worked in granite sculpture workshops in South India from 1997 to 2008. The tools and the techniques for carving idols have not changed much in hundreds of years, and they differ from those of Ancient Egypt principally through the use of tools made of iron/steel rather than copper. The workshop which I set up alongside the traditional workshops produced my own sculpture designs, and we also produced interior design items in stone: - baths, basins, shower trays, tables etc. These 'modern' items required dead-flat surfaces, irregular curves, and internal rectilinear conjunctions of planes. The hardest part is to polish the internal corners. I admire Egyptian sculpture, and I examine it close-up whenever I encounter a piece. Truly it is a wonder - and the granite box described in this video is exceptionally wonderful. However, we would not need power tools, diamond bits, carborundum polishing pads, or alien technology to produce it. There is nothing I have seen that could not be achieved with the tools and methods which the Ancient Egyptians actually possessed. The secret ingredient is not magical technology: it is time and patience. You cannot produce a shiny gloss finish on granite by hand polishing, but you can achieve an extremely smooth 'marled' or 'honed' finish, just like the finish on the top surfaces of the red granite box. I know, because I have instructed my craftsmen to do it and have watched it being done.

    As an Egyptian, Ive always been fascinated by the pyramid. The mystery surrounding them is almost magical due to the sheer awe that faces you when you contemplate the challenge that is solving some of those enigmas... How did they carved these rock? What purpose served the pyramids? How advanced were they ? Id give everything to go back in time and silently witness a day of the construction of one of those pyramids... The story of human civilization is formidable, Im afraid there are some questions that will be left without answers.

    ​@@michaelmeier9085 most of us if not all were taught and indoctrinated in schools to believe the mainstream narrative, that is the pyramids were built as tombs for the Pharaohs during their reign to be housed in when dead. However, with the ease of access of information on the internet, some of us got exposed to alternative theories and hypotheses like the ones presented here on this channel and the likes of Graham Hancock, and are more willing to explore these narratives. Granted, most Egyptians are not fluent or even competent in English, and such ideas are not available on Arabic speaking channels, so alot of Egyptians may have never heard of them. I also have to add that with Freedom of expression and opinion being cracked on by the government, you can't expect any Egyptians to post videos in Arabic exploring these narratives.

    I have a theory about the layout of the room. It’s hard to believe that they made the tunnel go around the room with the tilted box just willy-nilly. There had to be a purpose. Considering that the tunnel goes nowhere but around the box, it may have been constructed for crowd control. Imagine a group of people going down to view whatever was in the box, where would they stand while waiting for the people in front of them to finish looking? And if there was no tunnel around for people to stand, then there would be a problem for people leaving because of people standing in the way. Also, because the box is tilted, viewing what was in it would be more accessible to short people, too, like children. Perhaps this was a viewing room for the bodies of the Royal family when they died for the masses to pay their last respects. That is, the box wasn’t made for just one person, but many famous people of the era when they died. Just a thought. I thoroughly enjoy your videos.

    When looking at modern constructions, small alcoves (like the one halfway down the stairs where you came in at the start of the video) are usually added for utilities like air-conditioning controls and/or electric circuitry boxes/panels. Corridors surrounding a chamber are probably also utility corridors for adding whatever the builders needed that corridor for. See extra corridors in metro systems or utility tunnels underneath modern-day cities for access to electricity and gas services. When you have a chamber that contains a major utility that could need repairing or adding things, it's best you have corridors and pathways that give access to that chamber. Planning is what it's all about.

    One aspect of archaeology that I particularly love is its mission to understand findings rather than using them to prove an ad hoc theory. This approach ensures that we remain objective in our interpretations and avoid imposing our own biases on the evidence. In this regard, I would like to draw attention to the similarities between the granite chamber and the Barabar Caves in India. Both structures share similar materials and ratios, suggesting a possible connection in their original purpose. By focusing on understanding these findings, we can explore various possibilities regarding their purpose. Were they used for religious rituals, as tombs, perhaps as storage chambers or industrial applications? Without preconceived notions or theories guiding our interpretations, we can approach these questions with an open mind. I truly appreciate this approach of archaeology that prioritizes understanding over proving ad hoc theories. The similarities between the granite chambers all over the world highlight how similar materials may indicate shared purposes across different ancient structures. By embracing this mindset, archaeologists can continue unraveling the mysteries of our past with objectivity and intellectual curiosity.

(Like fishing line through wet clay) A high powered plasma beam of some kind? What are the options that we humans today can come up with to explain that precision? 2) Is there ANY record of any of these tools that were used. Example some hieroglyph that refers to a tool that made cuts to rock. These objects are there. What is not, are the tools used. And not even corollaries, proxy indications or side effects of the tools, like say metallurgy, or equipment that could have been used to make these cuts.

Anyway its interesting, because many kinds of "dating" of the soils and artifacts have been done since the 1950s up to late '80s. Out of these- ,three groups of scientist published the report that this place dates to as far back as 350,000 years. It appears that even the archeologist community and experts fought to stop the publications of those findings because it throws a huge wrench in human/modern man theory. I think the pyramids are of alien construction., and possibly a service station to refuel their craft.

The fact that lower level apprentices take a piece to a certain state before the masters step in to bring it to the last stage before hand polishing occurs where apprentices finish the polished look. It is amazing how level and flush you can get a surface when it is set in a large pool of water and the water level is raised and lowered to the surfaces you are working on. Even the inside corners of a box. Put it on its side. You can create smaller, lighter granite referance standards. Just like rulers,flat edges and squares. They knew those principles. Yes heavy, yes time consuming, yes some work got damage and was discarded or used elsewhere. We simply can't grasp the incredible man hours it takes to achieve that level of mastery and of human endeavor. Why hand craft when a machine, that is designed to do the same hand work mechanically and very fast is way easier. That machine design, material, metallurgy, engineering, manufacturing processes took 1000 years of human collective, documenting trial and error to master. Writing, documenting was the key. These techniques were lost. The pictures on the walls that survived did not do them justice, could not covey the applied knowledge of Master to apprentice that was build of direct intergenerational transfer. The meaning of the Mayan writing system was lost in 2 generations because it wasn't directly transfered from a master to an apprentice in their single lifetimes. The same applies here. Use it or we lose it.

    It would be interesting to get a laser mapping of the interior of the overcut you show near timestamp 27:14 to get a view of the interior base of the cut and see if there are arced depressions hinting at a circular saw type blade going a bit deeper at any point and get an idea of the precision of the depth angle as its withdrawn.

    I have not been to Egypt since the 1970's and I found this fantastically interesting and thought provoking. Thank you for posting.

    Either they used some high frequency heating methods that made the material softer and moldable or some dedicated craftsman/men spent a lot of time and care to make it.

    Melted granite being exposed to the air would look like muddy glass and be very brittle. We should give these ancient crafts men more credit for being the truest of stone masons.

    Younger Egyptian engineers are now taking a lively interest in doing their own measurements of these artifacts.

    Is this because he banned tablighis? What about the light C and the dark rectangle at the bottom. Didn't the swimmer get to swim to the Hq? It was the cover for st magerets road didn't that help ? 😭

    Isn't it odd that the principle of the arch seen here, wasn't used (or else no examples survived) in any above ground structures ? Mystery upon mystery upon mysteries abound everywhere. I've only discovered you in the last 6 months or so Uncharted X. Thank you for the gift of all this renewed awe. It's done an almost jaded soul great good.

    10:00... That loop would be a good way for the architect to prove how skilled they were with determining directions while underground. Which might have been pretty important if the placement of the coffin was vital. To me that seemed more impressive than the coffin itself. I mean, those tunnels are lined up with the poles, etc. AND it looks like if you were to put a perfect square over the tunnels all the sides would line up with the top tunnel perfectly splitting the top half and ending in the exact center of the square. That is quite a signature for the architect.
