Wow !!! So great 😃 adventure you are sharing with us ! When I see those boxes, the last thing I think of is a tomb. It is so thick and heavy... no known humanoid requires such a big robust box to store their bones. More likely they are technology with a purpose for the living.

@Mister Paradise Was going to have said that. Glad to have read your comment first. No evolution or devolution only convolution. No progress or regress only digress. If we measure evolution as a scalar quantity, a horse is more divergent from the seeming parent model of a shrew mouse than an ape. Are horses more highly evolved? Evolution seems not a vector quantity in any case.

The description of how the skeleton was found de-fleshed and re-wrapped in the box somewhat reminds me of Chinchorro mummy preparation: "In excavated mummies, archaeologists found skin and all soft tissues and organs, including the brain, removed from the corpse. After the soft tissues had been removed, sticks reinforced bones while the skin was stuffed with vegetable matter before reassembling the corpse."

​@@antonellocossu4319You daren't so keep believing the mainstream fairy tales. There is no way our civilization in Egypt did many of the things claimed. It was a previous civilization wiped out in the flood, as described by many ancient texts. I don't even know why that's so hard for many to comprehend.

It’s funny that they would date those granite boxes by the carvings. The carvings are clearly not the builders. Anybody that thinks so should not be dating them. Thank you

But now that I think of it, after they’re done lifting why leave it on?

Even some slots by the edge of these stones can do 10x better. Do you think so?

I've been watching these videos for only a few days now and even I'm noticing these mysterious bumps on the boxes. I can't imagine what they are for or why they are there. I doubt if ropes would stay on them. Must be some other purpose.

I have become very interested in the Dryas period, when meteor disaster and the extinction likely of an advanced species similar to modern man. Those massive and surgically clean-cut structures and the related evidence were not explainable before. I'm going with Ben on the likelihood of a great early society.

How curious, I must have watched this about five times since you published it, like most of your other work. This said, I'm quite surprised that in all this time I've never noticed your link to Christopher Hitchens, as he is also someone that perfectly encapsulates my feelings towards modern day humanity, and the lecture you shared is not only quite amazing, but particularly relevant for the times we are currently experiencing, we really need more people like him to shake some sense out of the flock! Anyhow, I highly appreciate your content, like you I've spent my whole adult life researching this topic, but not all of us are blessed with the skill of divulging the results of such research, which makes your work even more valuable in my opinion.

Excellent can’t wait to see this. I always look forward to your work with anticipation.

Hi Ben, I absolutely adore your work,you are one of the best out there on this subject. Much like others I love like Graham Hancock and Brien Foerster,Randall Carlson,etc.. your integrity always shines through.

Absolutely compelling. So wonderful. Thank you for posting.

Great video. I've been interested in the ancient civilizations since childhood. Ironically enough it was my Christian upbringing that put the idea of a lost 'antediluvian' civilization in my head. Likewise the disconnect between biblical history and real history might have helped to keep an open mind, as I was presented with two conflicting histories. Guess religion can have it's use. At any rate I'm now in my forties and see my childhood inklings slowly becoming reality. From rehabilitation of Neanderthals as intelligent human beings, discoveries like the Denisovians and their incredibly advanced tool making skills to the slow emergence of the pre-Younger Dryas civilization. The established version of history and the human journey is shaking at it's foundations. It simply won't be able to stand much longer. Exiting times for sure.

So you abandoned Biblical history because it didn't match "real history", which you now know was fake. Have you seen the Richat Structure, which is now the leading candidate for Atlantis? Have you seen the correlations between the Sumerian Kings List and the Biblical pre-flood geneaologies? The Bible isn't the only ancient source that says people lived for hundreds or thousands of years before the flood. Who knows what biological and medical technology might've been possessed by Atlanteans, 12,000 years ago? They used to say the story of Jericho was fictional. When Jericho was excavated, they found collapsed walls like the Bible describes. Atheists then concluded that "these walls must be different walls from the ones in the Bible, which didn't exist." I've found several myths from around the world which say the sky used to be closer to the earth. Asia, Africa, Babylon, Indonesia, South America. Some of them include the detail that there was no rain before the sky was moved high away from the earth. As if there was a very heavy and constant cloud cover, with no condensation particles in the clouds to make it rain, until maybe a volcano made all those clouds rain out. Or, "a giant shot an arrow at the Sky, breaking the Sky's embrace with his wife the Earth, and the Sky has wept for her ever since." If that was true, then there wouldn't have been much direct sunlight before the flood. So the first rainbow would've been seen afterwards. And with no direct sunlight - which brings radiation and is the primary cause of aging - people might've lived much longer. Of course these scientific details wouldn't have been known by ancient sources. But I bet they'd remember the first time they saw a rainbow, even if they didn't know what caused it. Anyway those are just my personal pet theories about the flood, but there's plenty of great archaeology by people who know what they're talking about. Check out a documentary called Patterns of Evidence: Exodus. There are ancient Egyptian documents listing the names of Hebrew slaves. There is an ancient Egyptian document detailing a series of plagues and catastrophes that befell Egypt; but, just like Jericho, mainstream archaeologists ignore these and pretend they don't matter. They still say there's no evidence that the Hebrews were ever in Egypt. But this documentary shows a small pyramid tomb with a statue of a Semitic foreigner who had been powerful in Egypt - but depicted as a shepherd - and there are still the remnants of multi-colored paint on the statue's coat. As for the Bible vs. real history, maybe we'll see. I don't find anything in the Bible that precludes the existence of Atlantis 12,000 years ago. Edgar Cayce was a Christian who also believed in Atlantis. He actually predicted that Atlantis would be found in the 1960s. The Richat Structure was first seen from space in 1965. But like I said, maybe we'll see. Oh, and Edgar Cayce also said Atlantis was destroyed 12,000 years ago. He said this about 100 years ago, and I don't think anyone knew about the Younger Dryas yet.

How could you not give this a " major " thumbs up.

Great video I have been looking forward to a new video from your channel.

Yet another incredible mystery!

As a bit of a research point you might want to look into this: For the postscript of the book "The Emperor's Soul" Brandon Sanderson described what inspired the book from a visit to the National Palace Museum in Taiwan. Apparently what we call "chops" in English, or yinjian in Mandrin, were used to stamp a personal signature and used in many different Asian cultures. What Brandon Sanderson found fascinating was that at some point it was common practice for Chinese scholars and nobility to stamp their "chop" on artwork if they liked it, not as a stamp of ownership, but just as a stamp of approval. Apparently one emperor in particular loved to do this and would even sometimes have poetry carved into ancient pieces made long before his time. I think this is a particularly interesting counterpoint to archeologists who are only considering the modern practice that you sign a work you created (not including graffiti), and not giving any weight to the idea that other cultures and other time periods had different ideas of what putting your signature on a piece meant.

Another informative video. Love the focus on the large, precision boxes. Quite the conundrum. Thank you for sharing your travels and thoughts. I would love to join you on a future Egyptian adventure is you ever have one. Thank you again.

Good job. Keep them coming!
