- The Edfu Temple has intrigued not only archaeologists but also enthusiasts of alternative history, particularly those fascinated by the myth of Atlantis and other ancient, advanced civilizations. Some fringe theories propose that the Edfu Temple was influenced by, or even constructed by, a civilization predating the known ancient Egyptian society, often linked to the legendary Atlantis. These theories stem from interpretations of the temple's texts and architecture that suggest advanced knowledge and skills.
One such interpretation revolves around the "Edfu Building Texts" inscribed on the temple walls. These texts narrate the creation of a primordial island by divine beings, which some theorists liken to the Atlantean myth described by Plato. Proponents of this view argue that these accounts might point to a memory of a lost, highly advanced civilization that influenced later cultures, including the Egyptians.
Critics, however, dismiss these claims as speculative and lacking concrete evidence. Mainstream scholars maintain that the Edfu Temple, like other Ptolemaic constructions, reflects the religious and cultural continuity of ancient Egypt, albeit with Greek influences from the ruling dynasty at the time. They emphasize that the temple's inscriptions are mythological and symbolic, intended to legitimize the pharaoh's divine authority rather than to record historical events.

I am just amazed this exists. I wish this could be the purpose of our civilization and not just selling plastic shit
It is
@@bloedblarre I think he means building amazing structures that will be left standing thousands of years from now. But in 5.000 years, everything we have made will be long gone.
This is unreal. You can not see something like this and not speculate on who and how and why, and oh my gosh, I want to go there so badly
Very glad to hear you enjoyed the video! Edfu is pretty remote. We started from Aswan, South Egypt and got a ride to there, 1,5 hours each way. A lot of effort, but the view was stunning!
The people defacing the statues are like the people today trying to tear down statues and erase history, which is a travesty.
Are you talking about Hitler statues? Lenin statues? Or Confederate statues?... all statues of Hate
Why would you ever disrespect this place like that? American history is nothing like this. Never will be. It’s literally I hate filled society. This is not.
Mitanni Hurrians started it. Tudakhipa / Nefertiti promoted it to Akhenaten.
@@tfranke6011 Statues of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, etc.. These are not hate.
Except some of the statues today are racist and offensive but of course you probably are a trump voter....
Those tall entrances certainly look to have been built for some very tall beings. Reminds me of the biblical phrase, that there were giants on the earth in the old days.
Interesting details: They started the foundation from the center of the structure and worked their way out doing the block work. Every row is symetrical to it's row, but not the same to the next row and the pattern is random. The whole place is block bricks coated with some kind of mortar that they must have pressed hieroglyph dies in to it while it was drying. You can see that some of the mortar is broken off to show the block work. Which means, they didn't stamp the pillars or carve them, they were poured in to a form, then set up. The walls must've been plastered with mortar and sculpted while still drying, since it takes 24hrs for crete to harden, but, Roman concrete can take days.
Does this count as wood block printing?? 🧐😅
I cant believe this has all survived since antiquity. It looks like its been rebuilt.
It’s quite incredible indeed. That wall is more than 3000 years old, and all looks pretty intact still!
Some of it definitely looks rebuild.. I see sectarian censorship
It is, alot has been restored, changed even.
This is amazing footage. It looks so much more enchanting and detailed with your camera for some reason. Actually I don't think I've ever seen alot of these specific locations or maybe it's the fact that the audience can actually examine it before a TV commercial cuts it off!! I can deal with occasional ads.
Wow! This is amazing! Thank you for sharing with us!
Would really love to see more world wide content like this, well done - u’ve found ur IT content, WELL DONE GREAT WATCH❤
I'm very very happy to see that you liked the video! I hope to capture more videos that you'll like!
This is incredible , I wish I could read more of it , I am stopping and looking and well I had to Share , Thank you for the Walk through :) QC
It's incredible how all of that is still so visible and detailed 3000+ years later. Very glad you liked the video :)
If we had to create the field of archaeology today from the ground up I have little doubt it would resemble very little to the contemporary. It's got so much dogmatic baggage, we could be learning things about our past rather than hiding behind faith-based models.
I wish we knew a little bit of what they knew. I think it's a misconception to think that ancient civilisations had poorer forms of knowledge
the problem is that too many people think archeology is whatever it suits; archeology is a science and it is based on facts not conjectures! Conjectures can help but ultimately it has to be based on evidence otherwise is science fiction and sadly i see too many that confuse archeaology with sci-fi
Thank you so much for sharing this video. I have only seen distant pictures of this place. To see what you have shown is incredible.
Appreciate your comment, and very happy to see that you liked it!
Yes. Love the video. Thx. Would love to see this place in person. And wish I could read the language .
Wow! Thank you for sharing!
Glad you liked it! :)
Dope video bro that’s a bucket list place forsure
Unbelievable because this cannot be replicated today amazing
So much information and art Great job !
Glad you liked it! :)
Wow wish i could there! Awesome!
🕶️❤️ thank you for sharing
So amazing love this stuff
Happy to see you liked it!
thank you for the post.
You are welcome! Glad you liked it!
They knew a lot more then they want you to understand
I was there 20 Years ago like child. I was shocked with Edfu. So Many dirt, birds, birtd feces, smell in area, i see nothing is chandged. Hugs from Croatia.
Hi! Thanks for stopping by! :)
When we were there it was clean. Also, no one was around, and it was extremely hot too (over 40degrees Celsius). I guess no one was around because of that, birds included :)
Wow life must scare you! 😂 you probably think girls don't pee either. If you've ever seen one.
Plenty of evidence of pre-Egyptian archaeology in the Serapeum for example. Definitely ancient civilizations existed there before Egypt. The Nile is very old indeed and so is homo sapiens. If there were ancient civilizations there, then their artifacts would have been most like lost and re-used unless they're impossible like the boxes in Saqqara.
There definitely were Giants in those days. Here around St Louis too
You mean you have something similar in St. Luis? 🫨
@@youtubenomadwalks - Remnants of an ancient civilization, who left behind mysterious buildings and graves with Giants
Wonderful.
Glad you liked it!
Horus gives me strong Jesus vibes
those carvings on the outside of the big temple look off, looks like someone added them as an afterthought
Exactly my thoughts
I agree. For a civilization that can create such a enormous building, they must have mastered math, geometry and advanced engineering. Yet the art, the hieroglyph are pretty primitive comparing to the engineering marvel.
i beviele the epyptions added the pictures later as this site is way loder that they where the real builders would never have written on a holy site
HOW WERE THEY ABLE TO MAKE IT ALL SO PERFECT ON STONE!!!!!! EVERY DRAWING ,PERSON ANIMALS, OR THING!!!!!😮😮😮😮 IM SO 👏
It's incredible indeed!
Not EVERYTHING, Just everything at that time. The older Temples were cut appart & reused. Also the older Hieroglyphics protruded outwards (like modern Sumerians ones) & the egyptians shaved them smooth & re-calved them originally Popping out - Until newer kingdoms e.t.c where they realized this was happening & they didn't want it to happen to them, so they started Engraving them. So they started having to "dot dot dot" ship out the ones they wanted to remove (AmenhotepIV- Or as most know him Akhenaten for example) since it was much harder to smooth the blocks.. Similar thing happened to Statues & also the Sphinx ~ Although that also had itself build in layers as seen today in fact more often spotted at the paws - Shame they removed the Roman? or Greek Stairs & temples around it. All that aside Nice video, good shots, Thanks for sharing!
Considering the insane efforts it would take to construct these buildings ( according to current academic explanations) why on earth would they build them to these dimensions? Especially the DOORWAYS. I get buildings being grandiose and all that, but the doorways being that large is absolutely unnecessary and odd.
Amazing video. Thank you for sharing this insight into a place I cannot visit. ✌🏻
Thank you very much for the comment :)
It's all indeed very impressive! And the site is not the easiest to get to: it's 1.5 hours away from Aswan, and we visited when it was 48 C degrees (118 F), which is also the reason why no one else was around :D
the temple with the inscription/hieroglyphs that stand out rather than have been carved into has also been moved, you can see they have sawn the blocks after the glyphs
fascinating!
Glorious. Thank you very much. What could have destroyed the creators of the site? It seems as if the entire complex was built to tell the stories carved into the columns and walls for all time. Have they been completely translated and are they publicly available in many translations? I would love to see a full image capture of everything and then a data analysis of the features of the images…cat, bird, male, female, belly button or not, instruments being held and also number of same images, size and then unique images….and see if we can learn a bit more. Truly wonderful.
I think there should be a detailed collection of the meaning of the images. From what I understand, their art wanted to depicture things more than write about them. Imagine the Christian paintings telling the stories contained in the Bible, I think the function was of that nature. Then they also had a system of symbols like an alphabet of some sort.
The most important is being left out Zoom in on the hieroglyphs and one CAN SEE IT WAS CUT WITH HIGH SPEED TOOLS!!!
Thanks for your great work. We are decoding the glyphs b/c the Rosetta stone and Champollion's altered work are fraudulent. This is not a spoken language, purely pictographic ideograms. Just a pointer to help other researchers; when filming the glyphs it is important to capture clear, slow-panning imagery as much is often blurry and cannot be studied.
This ruins are actually closer to our time than the time they made pyramids.
really? do tell. you seem to be an expert.
Notice how when he’s outside the video is clear but when he’s inside the video is distorted I wonder why that is.
That may be because of the camera adapting to low light. I was using a camera that would adjust the ISO automatically in the low light environments
I can
not imagine having the audacity to go in there and chisel out godheads and faces shame on them, great video :)
Where have all the blocks gone from between the pillers. What has been hidden.
Is it possible that Edfu is a Time Machine? That the hieroglyphics manifest or contain more information than previously known to common men. Perhaps the holy place of the temple is a place to view the future? Or the past? Thank you to the explorers!
Feels like the scenes in tomb raider. Really amazing work. Thank you for sharing
Thank you, I'm happy to see you liked it! And yes, I thought of Tomb Raider too the whole time!
Just a small detail I noticed that piques my curiousity. From around 13:45 or so you start to get these close ups of these figures, and having never noticed this before, it strikes me as somewhat odd that all of these 'Gods' feature belly buttons so prominently.
Now of course there's so much that goes into that, but my thinking as a modern individual is it seems almost purposefully done to emphasize the humanity of these individuals. Without knowing much of anything about the mythology, I realize of course at face value that all these godly beings are sort of these animal charactures fused with the body of man, so perhaps there is some other purpose for the iconography I'm not really sure.
Just that again, without knowing the 'why' behind it, it definitely feels purposefully done, presumably once more to emphasize the humanity of these 'divine' beings. If anyone has a more legitimate explanation I would of course love to hear it.
Edit; 21:50 Ya you noticed it too. Seems like a curious detail, would be interested to know if anyone has any real explanation for that
It was! We thought that back in the day, powerful people were so powerful and decisive that would "ascend" to god status, so to say, that gods where also humans first that somehow where elected/selected or that ascended to such status. Probably the answer is somewhat among these lines
Absolutely excellent
It looks more like their version of wikipedia than a building
How was all this abandoned or destroyed? How did it end? Where did the people who lived in this place go?
I think many cities in Egypt just moved around, creating new cities over time as the country changed in political and cultural terms
Were the heads and bodies of the figures carved onto the walls purposely chiseled away? Or is that natural weathering?
Hello my friend! Amazing video and good info!
I have seen that you have some info. about ancient advanced civilizations and are open-minded as well as skeptical which is a perfect combination.
If I were to invite you to go to Tibet for an adventure would you be willing to go?
Hello my friend! I’d be very interested to go! Are you from Tibet? Happy you liked the video!
@@youtubenomadwalks Im from Cyprus but I have done some research about Tibet and it sounds very promising. Ill be going around this time next year. When its close Ill let you know. I hope that you'll be down.
Keep up the good work my friend!
Even the gateway pillars are in sections. This proves Egyptians had no means of building with megalithic stone blocks.
All relatively small block work. Not a megalithic stone in sight. Very telling.
Indeed, the feeling is that somehow they prepared the blocks beforehand (which is super impressive already), and then stacked them on top of each other. Just incredible!
@@youtubenomadwalksthe stones were hewn, squared, and numbered in the quarries where they were raised…
Why are all the walls chopped in half?
These structures are as old as the stones themselves. Great video. Thanks for sharing 😊
Happy to hear you liked it! :)
Giants
It's funny how you can see receding water mark's now Tell me when was that part of Africa under water 😮
the Nile floods regularly and at times it'shigher than normal
How can a civilisation make this without machines? Are we being told the right information about the world and history in general. How old is human civilisation? I want to think that this civilisation must have been 100,000 + years old. We can't lift this stones today, we can't do it, they were so advanced but something happened that wiped them out.
Compared to some megalithic works these stones are TINY.
Would love to see more of these!
Nice. On many of these sites the walls are covered . We would know what is being " written " there if they were all deciphered . Seems the less carvings may be easier to crack, or not, I would start with the carvings on the " Main " Obelisk . Then we could STOP questioning things like this on every video I have ever watched . Fantastic site. Thanks for the share. :O)
Thank you for stopping by, I appreciate your comment!
So, apparently the walls depicture myths about creation and religion. It was a temple dedicated to Horus, so see it like a church with paintings about creation, god and related stories. I think we managed to interpret some of it, question is if we should take this as historical documentation or just myth!
Evidence of rebuilding is some hieroglyphs don't match and some scenes misaligned cutting off the glyph. Water erosion on some pillars and absent on others!
This whole thing could be a movie set distraction to confuse the entire history of man as well
The world’s largest Corinthian column is found in St Louis
Didn’t use hammer and nails to build…..lol…….remarkable.
MUST HAVE BEEN REALLY BIG PEOPLE WITH DOIORWAYS THAT SIZE , MAYBE THATS WHY THEY DONT WANT EVERYONE TO SEE IT , DOH , WE ALREADY KNOW THAT GIANTS EXISTED EVEN THOUGH THEY DO THEIR DAMNDEST TO COVER IT UP , !!! AMAZING !!*
@1:30 Too bad, they're missing the upper half of those stones
She knows so much lol
They know who were the real African Ancient Egyptians
Camera going way too fast, cant focus on the carvings etc
interesting, thank you for the feedback!
10:01 That sentiment of DISMISSING anything outside anyone's ideals is seen as mythological. But plenty of indigenous peoples from around the world have their stories told and in today's state of mind, it's far fetched, but yet not one person cam confidently say how this was built, how the pyramids were built, how stonge henge was built.
The archaeological site of Ἄτβω or Ἔτβω is located within the boundaries of Apollonopolis the greater, of ancient Thebaid in Upper Egypt ,where a great war was fought between Zeus and Typhon
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
People who defaced those statues were foreigners not Africans
Please never add subtitles to videos like this again.
No one noticed at 27:02min that there was like a Hellenic head carved? How bizarre
That little head in the corner you mean?
not bizarre as Egypt was conquered by Greece
@@blacksnowflake8574 meaning what? That those etched glyphs aren’t Egyptian but added on by Greeks (or just that head)? So when were the glyphs added feels like not at the time the temple was built…Is that writing as old as the structures or much younger, who added it and why? Was it Egyptian graffiti on top of some old structure they had repurposed? What’s going on there?
@@anonymousbydefault yes the Greeks did leave "their mark" on several buildings; I'm talking about the heads not the hieroglyphs, Greeks never mastered the Hieroglyphs which they did not comprehend. Temples were added to during millennia by the same Egyptians; sometimes during reparations, sometimes rewriting something; it's not at all uncommon.
@@anonymousbydefault don't forget that many kings did try to add "their little bit" to claim the temple as their work; it was common practice
Why no verbal descriptions? uggghhk
If any of those heads of gods made it into the black market...imagine owning them. Terrible, but I prefer that hope than complete destruction
More like warehouse
Some of these carvings seem poorly laid out, like peoples years later came and added the carvings. Like on the huge gate, the smaller gods are carved too close to the edge with their feet breaking into the decorative border. The layout doesn't make sense and ruins the elegant craftsmanship of the entire place.
2:18 you knew very well that Muslims did it, they do and did it everywhere, like the Buddha statues in Afghanistan.
there is no mystery about the chiselling out of faces and names of Gods. It was done by Christian Copts and Muslims, it is a very common thing. In other temples they also chopped up noses and breasts of Goddesses, the same was done by muslims in India.
Egypt has all this, and they don't make money with turism. Why?
I think they do make some money :)
Though the country is massive, and so it's the number of people in it!
Stone hardens with age. Like concrete.
The children of the lost tribes of Israel built all this just like we built the Americas and everything you currently see today
Bro needs to learn how to properly use a camera and at least get an external mic
We went through allot of ice ages and floods because of the gods kept trying to kill us to make us forget. Why we revolted and turned against God's took back our people.
Are you wealthy people who paid to have private viewing? Nobody there but you? The privilage have access. Thay can also make changes.
We’ve been very lucky, but also we’ve been there when it’s low season! The site is in the heart of the country, and it gets extremely hot.
The heat was severe that day: approx. 50 degrees Celsius, or 120 F 🥵
@@youtubenomadwalks i have been.
I believe the preflood civilization build this , with geopolimer , which is like modern concrete
Geopolymer facade with printed images. No carving
Where do you get this BS from?
I liked it, but you really shouldn't rub the hieroglyphs with your dirty hand
you are right, you never know, I did it out of amazement
I can see the layers stolen now they look like windows . Probably England has those blocks
They condemn thieves but they themselves are thieves.

Flood sediment from global flood of Noah was east to shape . Tombs temples idols of every sort were produced with this substances. We call it stone. The Bronze Age people relayed tales of Noah as various gods.
Giants build these ancient cities and structures bottom line.
Religion is pretty much only 3k yo...
Before that there was none ...
we have been in atlantis and lemuria .but we don't remember. everything is graving in our dna.our origin.is from those beings the anunnaki and the pleiadian.aka atlanteans and lemurians
Man did not build them man was in slavery 2 giants bottom line.
