IMPOSSIBLE LOST HIGH TECHNOLOGY: Granite core hole drilling with copper. YES YOU CAN!

#ancientlosthightechnology #granitecore #POSSIBLE

The ancient lost high technology argument rests on a foundation of it can't be done therefore it has to be lost high technology. If it actually is impossible then they would have a point but if it is possible and can be replicated then there is no argument.
COPPER TOOLS and the ancient materials available absolutely can drill cores in granite. Cores that replicat the helix like pattern as well as the tapering used as evidence of a lost high technology.

By Scientists AGainst Myths Channel, the impossible made possible.

Making Egyptian Drill Holes: Lost Ancient High Technology

As you said, no copper drill tubes have been found. But i dug a bit myself and found out that modern tools now allow researchers to establish quite precisely what material was used to drill back then, in antiquity.

This is a link to a 8 page paper, released by the Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers in 1998, called:
'A brief history of drills and drilling'
by A. John Gwinnett
and Leonard Gorelick
A microscopic examination of silicone impressions of the
perforations of beads, seals tones, and amulets has produced a data base of characteristics that help to define what type of drill was used to make them. This article outlines the various types of drills that have been used from the Palaeolithic period to the present day, and notes what microscopic features characterize each one. Scanning electron micrographs illustrate the minute details that are revealed by the silicone impressions.
etc.


for those who do not mind reading so called 'quacademic' work...

They'll still find some way to say this is a fake...you know it:)
Corundum is mohs 9 - one down from diamond...so practically as tough. Granite being 6 to 7.
Just a little note on the helix thing you mentioned. From what I can gather, they say there never was a helix. I think unchartedX showed in a video that core 7 was photographed at an angle that made it look like they were concentric rings, when actually, the real angle showed that the lines were more diagonal, suggesting a spiral. But I think this may have been due to wobble or some other practical side effect, as the spiral just can't be made with this process. Scientists against Myths show in their paper on their experiment that the grooves are not created per rotation - so in no way indicate a feed rate - but are made by the fresh application of grit. A few sharp pieces will get lodged behind or embedded in the soft copper, and scratch a groove, but then this groove is filled with some of the paste from the slurry, so kind of protecting it from further scratching. The fresh grit is quickly ground down to more of a powder - it will still eat into the granite, but without leaving any more grooves (as far as I can tell from their translation). A squeaking sound is then heard, which signals the time to add more corundum - at which point a fresh groove/scratch is made. The space between the grooves is what almost everyone has misinterpreted as a feed rate.
So it seems that Petrie and Dunn may have been mistaken by the apparent spiral. There are so many scratches - some in different directions/angles - others starting then stopping, that it probably is possible to find a way to link them with a thread and presume a spiral....hopefully more on this to come - to prove once and for all if it exists or not. But that side by side photo you showed clearly shows it's a bit of a mess, and def not indicative of a precision hi tech tool mark.

Denys Stocks has obtained a cutting rate in granite of 12 cubic cm/h and a drilling rate of 5 cubic cm/h (Denys Stocks, Experiments in Egyptian Archaeology, page 115). It should be faster with corundum, but I'm not aware of any published cutting rates. It would be interesting to have a study comparing the results of the 2 drilling methods.


There is another method of obtaining internal 90 degree angles - by scraping, using obsidian flakes. The experiment was done in rhyolite (6-7 on moh scale), photo and details available in the book - Jean Pierre-Protzen/Stella Nair, The Stones of Tiahuanaco, page 162

I didn't properly studied this, but as far as I know, toughness (the ability to sustain shock without fracturing) is also an important characteristic of stones. Diamond is harder then steel (so it can scratch it), but steel is tougher, therefore the diamond will break upon impact.


Keep up the good work!

So I got my copy of "Handbook for the Amateur Lapidary" by James Harry Howard in the mail yesterday. It's a great little starter/intro to the art of lapidary (cutting and polishing of semiprecious and precious stones). It was written in 1935 as a compendium for those starting out in the lapidary field in the US, where there was little to no experience at the time.

One of the best qualities of this little book is that it discusses the history of lapidary, including the tools used (with diagrams too!). Among the more interesting points the book makes:

1) There is no written history of lapidary/masonry techniques as these were passed down generation to generation by apprenticeship only (which is why it's easy to claim the technology/techniques used in antiquity are "lost")
2) It mentions the gemcutters of India several times. One of the interesting anecdotes was how the gemcutters went to great lengths to keep/collect the dust generated by their work as it was used to polish all sorts of stones later on.
3) It discusses how to both make and use traditional COPPER tube drills for making holes in gemstones (page 57).

A very interesting read for anyone interested in learning the history of gem/stone working.

A fine example of "core beliefs" being tested.

[CrovidNL]

How much damage did the copper tube take though? It clearly drills into granite, but if it takes a whole tube for only a small hole, it seems unlikely that the drills were actually copper.

[AmericaAndAllies]

Good video. How could they achieve the drilling holes in the example shown in the video "Smoking Gun Evidence for Ancient Granite Machining! Elephantine Island" at about time 7:30 in the video? It would seem that all of the techniques should in this video would not work. How did they do it?

[John-xykt]

I do enjoy learning all facets to the human story. Although i do get confused and sway one way to the other each day lol. But i have enjoyed your videos on sacred geometry. It has inspired me to learn more and be the best carpenter i can be. So many greats like Graham. Randell. And yourself. Thanks for making me always think anew.

[tenebrafallen]

6:13 imagine this scene but with two ancient egyptian workers and the tool is lying there, I mean dude it's THE WHEEL, just discover it! lol

[treatb]

Thats awesome. Ive never seen such a thing.

[superastral]

Keep diging, excelent! Keep diging even if it destoy every ilussion you had about ancient mysteries! If you do it to find the truth at all cost the answers will flow to you so fast and so strong that you wouldnt believe your eyes. For example, right now they are claiming they found a 3000 year old mummy, do you believe is an ancient mistery or they just have a fresh corpse because people would not think: Who would be so crazy to hoax the wordl with fake mummies?

[TerebraRobusta]

I'm not saying they didn't use copper tools. We can see it works. They definitely had more time to cut and chisel. The one thing that I don't know so I think because I cant comprehend is how long they lived in Egypt and how large was their empire. The copper mines that are relatively close were being worked hard so there was lots of people there and traveling back and forth with new copper for tools and such. That provided all the copper needed to continually work and not be restrained by tools. Because I just don't know how long they lived there (I'm just a small brain boi) I cant personally understand like when did they take their first step into building there even if that means the first lil hut out there to when it was done/no one lived there. I can see where other people think it would require tools we don't know about because they don't know the time line too or are unsure of the beginning. It just doest seem like thats the answer because maybe just not understanding how much humans will do with enough beer. Beer, food, sleep, bang rock, That sounds awesome. Oh also One thing I dont get is how did they move rocks weighing that much. We can see rocks as big as 100 tons or more have been moved. Thats just so cool, We need heavy machines to lift stuff. I will continually ask how did they move heavy shit. Like if they build the pyramids then they had like massive cranes made of wood or something like that? The rocks at Machu Piccu are so impressive and we know of the sites they took them from. They took rocks weighing like 50 tons from one mountain to another. Im jealous of that. Once again is it super cool to me because I just dont understand how long it took? what it it took them over a year for just one rock? I have no idea but its just so cool to me. Also if there was sonic cutting tools. Hear me out in just asking. Could you make those with tuning forks with a chisel on the other end? or like a didgeridoo with a cap on it with a metal wire attached to the cap? IF it could work it wouldnt just make the copper tools more efficient? Really I just wanna know how rocks were moved. Like its probably simple answer but I just wish I could see the crane or sleds or weird curved thing that makes square role. I want to see big rock move :'(

[treatb]

So then having such a device. Similar to our older hand drills. All you have to do then is flip it and you have a sander lol

[pjax]

So Chris Dunn and all his work is wrong?

[jellyrollthunder]

Come on you guys gotta like and subscribe and comment so we can get this killer channel the spot in the algorithm it deserves! (not affiliate with this channel in any way, I just want to see all the Hancockian misinformation brought into the light for all of his customers to see)

[John-xykt]

Were the pyramids build in 20 or so years. That one dose confuse me a bit.

[frosty]

Mark Lehners attempts of working stone was really lame. It was clearly not planned .. either that or they were idiots.
And even the russian vids, there are many ways to improve these methods. But atleast they did good attempts, and they proved its possible even with bad technique.


You can do it without an abrasive, but its boring and inefficient.
Google: Ancient egypt + corundum ... yep.. they used it too, just like we do.


edit:
Oh, and yeah... tube drills are a key to everything. Thats how we approach it today too. Drill holes to get a starting base for f.ex a square slot.

[AmaterasuSolar]

I do ponder the core pieces that are tapered and proven to have a groove that spirals around them... I'm pretty sure that was not done with a simple setup as shown here.

[samisiddiqi]

I love your videos but damn bro what's with these sensationalist titles? LMAO
