Evidence for Ancient High Technology - Part 1: Machining

An investigation into the evidence for ancient high technology found across the world. We look into the evidence for machining and advanced methods of shaping and polishing stone, as well as the varying levels of technology found on ancient sites and artifacts.
I spend a bit of time explaining the context around the claim for ancient high technology, as well as address the mainstream attachment to the 'status quo' story of history.

In part 2 (coming soon) we'll get into logistics and construction methodologies, and take a deep dive into the evidence for advanced precision in ancient artifacts both big and small, and I'll give my opinions on what I think it is that we're really looking at when we seen these types of objects.

As a geologist myself with 50 years of experience in the field of diamond drilling, mine geology and stone quarrying, I would like to congratulate you for this extraordinary presentation .The amazing artifacts really can challenge modern technology and human history in this respect needs to be re-evaluated.Thanks for this great work.

I don't leave my tools on a job site.

0:46 The method allowing creation symmetrical statues like Ramses II is presented in the article: “Fabrication methods of the polygonal masonry of large tightly-fitted stone blocks with curved surface interfaces in megalithic structures of Peru” (DOI: YouTube does not allow a direct link. Search by the article title.

The saw marks are so insane, I was a machinist for 3 years and that block looks exactly like when you face a piece of cast metal and don't cut deep enough to remove all the casting.
The box at the Serapeum was OBVIOUSLY vandalizes. Just imagine if you bought that box from someone today, and it was shaped with that craftsmanship, and came with that quality of engraving. You'd be pissed that they ruined your box with crude engravings done by a 3rd grader, but we are supposed to believe they were done by the same people simply because it's old. Complete nonsense.

This channel has become BY FAR the best, most comprehensive source on this subject matter

[istivanp]

I wanna take a moment to appreciate the watermarks you put in the footage stating what site or object is being shown, they really make researching and referencing easier!

[bryonmartin]

Truly amazing. The more “high tech” we become as a society, the less skill we maintain as individuals. Simple things become mysterious to us.

I recently started giving Graham Hancock more attention. After I watched his series on Netflix I immediately googled what mainstream archaeologists said about it. The first results I saw were he was "dangerous" and his ideas were "white supremacy." That's when I knew something was seriously wrong. You guys present very serious questions that demand a greater look at this and to dismiss these questions in such a way is not just unprofessional, it's anti-professional and exposes itself as an establishment that wants to keep a narrative in place.

45:07: vandalized with a chisel is exactly right.

Finally a video that questions how these things were made without talking about aliens. Great video

[azraelbatosi]

Reminds me of the area around the Sphinx;
When shown a picture of just the ground and walls...
Every Geologist: “Oh yeah, that looks like water erosion, definitely the result of heavy rainfall.”
Schock: “Well, this is the Sphinx enclosure, and heavy rains disappeared from that area several thousand years before the Egyptians. Isn’t that fascinating?.”
Every Geologust: “....oh....huh, well that’s weird, not a big deal though, the Egyptologists take care of all that.”
Every Egyptologist: “Schock is no longer allowed near the Sphinx, he’s promoting fringe theories.”

These people don’t like it when you challenge their status quo, which is a HUGE roadblock for advancement.

Thanks again to Joe Rogan for sending me in the direction of this gentleman. Some fantastic stuff here Ben. Doing a great job.

[jeffa]

I'm hooked. Plan to donate at the end of the month. One of the true mysteries I find factually interesting enough to give me goose-bumps. I've watched your other posts, too.

[Budsport_TV]

Here we go! Already can’t wait for part II

[greytroll]

I could spend an entire day listening to this subject.

[k.l.u]

I’m very happy that you brought up Graham Hancock, and the terrible mistreatment of a man who dared to think differently. Humanity should praise thinkers who question and hypothesize outside the bounds of their respective fields. Thank you.

[hospitalcleaner]

I'm pretty sure the rough hieroglyphs inscribed onto the beautiful glossy statues were done at a much later date by kings who just wanted to assert their ownership over them, so they didn't care about the quality of the markings

[mrnikolai]

im a tradesman and if i leave a tool somewhere when i get back after 10 minutes, its gone. tools are valuable in any society and time .

[sirarterian]

A very eye opening video, my interest level has increased tenfold about how ancient structures were made!

[tomhutchins]

I opened this video expecting some crank "ancient aliens" nonsense, but instead it reminded me of the wonder, awe, and bemusement I felt as I child seeing a certain exhibit in a museum. It was a granite bowl, hollowed out inside so the hole was smaller than the volume, with a glassy smooth finish and absolutely perfect workmanship. A card said it was from before 3000BC. The next displays along were alabaster bowls dated 2000-3000BC, and they were beautiful but clearly more crude. Workmanship of the objects on display clearly improved as time went on but never to the level of that bowl.

This is just amazing stuff and I can't wait to see more.
