15 Advanced Ancient Technologies We Still Can’t Replicate

We like to think that technology now is better than it ever was , but there were Advanced technologies that existed which we find amusing were created by ancient humans . But with countless wars and no documentation in the modern language, we lost a lot of knowledge about the previous civilizations.
While we have understood and analyzed a lot of technology invented by our ancestors, many of it still remain a mystery to us. Here are 15 pieces of ancient technology that we still don’t understand.

For the Roman concrete - they just built thicker. Nowadays the concrete doesn't hold for just 80 years. If we would build walls that thick again it would hold longer. But we build thinner with steel in it for stability/static reasons. That brings a few new problems which Romans didn't have like oxidation or corrosion. Also the additives are different than nowadays, so a replication isn't possible at all. Mystery solved.

The Stradivarius violin had a specific sound because it was made out of wood from a certain tree that had survived thru the "Little Ice Age" that began around 1300 to 1800. I'm sure their technique was impeccable and did have a bit to do with the sound, but the clincher is they used Maple that had survived the "Little Ice Age".

Please, GPS in world war two? Because we totally had satellites back then and microcomputers. How anyone would think that is the mind boggler.

These videos are becoming unwatchable with the ads interrupting every couple of minutes.

There's a hell of a lot of misinformation in this video.

1:30 "Archimedes Heat Ray Weapon" Obviously a Fallout NV reference.

Gallileo is not “the” inventor, per-say, of the telescope. Hans Lipperahey (1600), a German-Dutch lens crafter invented lenses to help navel vessels see further. Gallileo modified the invention and can be attributed to be the first to use it for astrological purposes.

Why remember anything when everything will be history one day

I feel like your videos should be tagged as satire since every single title contradicts the video attached to it.

7:34 is it bad that I said to myself
"Pompeii was rich while it lasted"

Making of Damascus steel was lost due to English colonisation of India, the English cut fingers and hands of Indian craftsmen... true story... British used to take raw materials from India, process them in England and sell it back to its colonies, however, craftsmen in India were better at making metal and textiles by hand which English could not compete by manufacturing in England as transportation and manufacturing goods was expensive. Shampoo, perfume and a lot of other daily use stuff are from India, thank god the British decided that hygiene and taking bath was Important.

The title says that this is about technology that hasn't been replicated, yet you or featuring technology that's been replicated?

[angieemm]

So, basically, the MIT replication of Archimede's Heat Ray Weapon is on the list of "technologies we still can't replicate?" Who writes this crap? And y'all drive me crazy with all the stock footage, especially from movies, when there are plenty of other images or footage of the stuff y'all post. Lawdamercy.

ahaha 2:55 he is talking about secret Byzantine/Greek fire and showing a jet turbine engine diagram. WTF

Damascus steel isnt a lost technology, it's made by combining low carbon iron with high carbon steel. The point is that it makes a steel that is both very hard to keep an edge and very flexible to avoid breaking on contact with other steel. Any experienced swordsmith can make it, it's not that difficult.

[msafarzaan]

Damascus steel is still being made to this date.

The Bible say that in the olden days there were living giant's on earth
