      Indeed, there's a few elements missed. In our observable "reality". Energy/Amplitude, Frequency (how often per time frame), Vibration (how it distorts itself and neighbours with respect to position in space), Polarity (points of concentrated effect), Duration (how long this gonna 'appen fer?), Sympathy (what neighbours, near and distant are effected by the presence, emission, absorption, etc), phase (periods of state, this one plays an important role when there are transitional effects when phase state is altered or indeed when there is only an effect in a certain "phase")
      All fun and games. We do not possess the tools. Yet we have plenty of "officially" sanctioned orthodoxies to lay upon. The stare of boredom overcomes me ;)

    1:40:08 this frame seems to be the clincher for the stone-softening hypothesis. The evidence of the raised seam running along multiple stones seems easily explainable by the idea that they placed stones with pliable softened surfaces, and the surfaces they were mating to were also softened, leaving the tell-tale seam. It seems utterly implausible that the surfaces were worked with tools to mate against each other across the entire surface, and that they'd also go to the immense trouble of creating such a seam, one that is merely an inclusion of the stone-softening technique.
    You can even imagine the use of what we'd call a pointing stick on the walls with the very large rocks. You can imagine a tool running along the seams of the freshly mated surfaces, removing excess melted material, leaving the seam we see on the exposed rocks, and also producing the V-shaped indentations running along the seams, and by extension, the 'pillowing' effect.

    The Spanish used the "finished" outer wall stones from Sacsayhuaman to build their cathedrals and mansions down in Cuzco. It was built to serve as a defensive fortress. If you climb to the top of the tiered walls on the south side of the Great Plaza, or use an aerial camera, you can see that the walls were constructed in a zig zag pattern. At first, I thought this had a spiritual purpose in honoring the lightning gods, but then I came to realize that the zig zagged parapet would allow you to fire on the enemy from 3 directions with great accuracy.

    In civil engineering practices, we use block retaining walls to “retain” active forces (force from soil behind wall) from causing a moment (rotating force) along the bottom of the wall. Passive forces (soil in front of the wall) can tremendously help with countering the active forces. Therefore, if these stones are buried in any way they would represent, in my opinion, some high level civil engineering knowledge.

    @petermccarthy9108 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I loved the podcast on Sacsayhuaman and Cusco. It crystallised my thinking about construction, here is a theory for consideration. All work is done with some form of hammer and chisel. The walls were built on their sides on a nearly flat surface one course at a time, with the final inside face upward. The rough blocks from the quarry were placed with the intended exposed face down, the nubs were for levelling the rough block during dressing, perhaps partly compensating for an uneven floor. Sides were done first as planes using a straight edge, and the entire course assembled on its side. Then the next course of rough blocks was lined up say one metre away and its edges done and the blocks brought together. Then the matching faces between courses were prepared using a standard spacing stick. Supervisor could check this until satisfied, it could be a very accurate match. Then the first course was taken to the wall and erected. The previous course was moved over to the first position and a new set of blocks brought in. Once the wall was finished, the roughly aligned exposed face was pillowed deeply enough to make a neat join. The pillowing is a labour-saving technique that avoids having to align the outer faces perfectly during preparation. This might be the only practical way to make such a wall, which is why it is seen in different locations and cultures. There is no need for lifting blocks in and out to perfect the joins. I am a mining engineer and feel confident I could build the walls that way without too much trouble.

    • @Itsjustme-Justme
      @Itsjustme-Justme 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I really like your theory. It completes a picture I have been drawing in my head for some time now.
      The irregular shaped stones with a lot of corners seem to cause a lot of extra work in the building process. But what if the opposite is true? What if it actually saved more work than it caused? Maybe they had a hard time quarrying the stones because they had not more than chisels and hammers. Maybe they did not have a technology to crack the stones into rectangular shapes, or the type of limestone in that location is just not suitable for being cracked along straight lines and will always break into irregular shapes.
      This would mean the quarried stones had all sorts or irregular shapes. Chiseling irregular shaped stones down to a rectangular shape is a lot of extra work. And they would lose a lot of the stone's volume in that process which means the total number of stones they have to quarry is increased and further extra work is required.
      Under these circumstances it can save a lot of work when they lay a larger stock of quarried blocks to the ground in a display area and select those for the wall that already have roughly matching shapes. This selection of already matching shapes will, to the cost of additional stone moving work, greatly reduce the amount of chiseling has to be done to make them fit. Only near the end of the building process, when most of the quarried stones are already used and there is not much left to select, the remaining stones will require a larger amount of chiseling to make them fit.

    What is so remarkable about this area is that it was more trouble to remove the old architecture than to simply clear of the top and build on it. The successive layers speaks to the trouble it was by each of the builders to deal with the prior builders activities resulting in the "layered" look.

    • @qedcharlie

      The Nephilim giants built the megalithic structures in stages and ages over a very long time in slightly different styles and for different purposes:
      Most of the multi-sided pillow stones were heated by X-rays so that they sagged while still in their forms. This would be similar to heating marshmallows inside balloon type forms. It would require that the forms were removed after the multi-sided stones were set into place against each other, so that they cooled taking up their many sided shapes against each other. Some of the larger stones show signs of being over heated, even in some of the stones in the zig zag Peruvian walls.
      Some of these videoed chaotic structures have been hit with explosive resonant frequency peak X-ray photon beam laser weapons, as they appear to have been torn apart by a strong force that scattered the stone pieces around. But the chaos was not by an earth quack, more like explosions by a directed weapon that swept through areas and blew apart what had been structures. See the Pyramid Wars book and other books about the ancient and early peoples.
      The Inca Indians came up through the Americas much later after the Nephilim had been driven out by various wars and floods. The historical Inca only tried to rebuild and repair sloppily what had been there for eons. The Inca neither had the strong metal tools, large stone cutting skills nor strength to move and shape big 100 to 500 ton stones. The Inca had no wheels or pulleys and they had only short fat woven ropes and so only so many men can pull or lift a given stone due to available contact space around it.
      The biggest stones that the Romans moved and lifted into place on high walls and arches were no more than 5 to 10 tones each. See Baalbek Nephilim megalithic temple construction, which was much later reshaped and expanded by several warring peoples and then by the human Romans. The higher that the stones had to be lifted and the space between the rising wall and other structures (or cliffs) limited the size (height and foot print) of stone lifting cranes. Therefore the weight (size) of the stones became less as the wall height increased.. EE QED

It also says that however technically advanced they may have been, they had not yet invented gunpowder which would reduce the walls to rubble.

      My sentiments exactly. The way they basically "played" around with these huge stones and carvings etc... that it was so easy for them that whatever technology/resources they used to make these structures it would be like us playing with legos or play-doh or making sand castles. You could create out of stone and rock whatever your mind conjured up. We assume that it must have been difficult for them (not everyone) but I think like you, that it was quite easy.

    I’m watching this while my saw cools down. I just cut some lovely pink granite. Glacial till, dropped off on the coast of Maine, which I found at Gooch’s beach.
    For reference, I’m using a Hi-Tech 10” with their thin sintered blade (which they call 325#/400# grit), which runs at 1,700 rpm. I’m cutting pieces averaging 3” thick at about 1” / minute. 30min cutting/ 30 min cooling. I could cut faster but this blade gives a nice finish and I still have yet to buy that polishing machine…

    The geological input was lacking from this chap. Why did he just sit there when the others were asking pertinent questions ? No mention of possible freeze/ thaw exfoliation of the basalt for example , or the nature of basaltic eruption. Was the basalt a pillow lava , which would explain the curved nature of that eroded single block . Yes , specificity , requires on site detailed inspection , but you can still theorise from afar. Perhaps he was overawed by the company ?

    Another thought, Ben: maybe the protrusions tell us, that shaping the stone once hardened was actually difficult for them. So, if we speculate that protrusions were left from the process of softening the stone and then removing some kind of scaffolding; most protrusions were cleared away, but the builders didn't bother with those that already hardened, as it presented too much work. This would also explain their random appearance.

    In metallurgy, when casting in a mold, it is fed through an opening and always feed extra, due to contraction when solidifies. So...🤔🤔🤔 that may explain the bits potruding in those huge stone blocks 🤔. hmm🤔🤔🤔. what if they developed a technique that instead of contraction ...is expansion...so when the granite compound sets..it expands and closes the gaps so not a sheet of paper fits 😁

    I was thinking that if the tool they used did not remove very much material, as long as the cut was continuous both sides of the cut would be the same shape and create a natural match. Maybe they fit so close in the wall because that is the exact order in which they were pulled out of the quarry. The curves at the edges of the joining faces and the odd shape the stones were cut in could have more to do with the way they could be conveniently cut out of the quarry then any kind of artistic choice in putting together the wall. The question seems to be, if they had the tech to shape it so easily, why would they leave it so rough? If the tech is only available at the quarry, the precision of the way the stones fit together would be limited to essentially what we see. Its a wild puzzle for sure, but it looks as if the tool they used cut through stone effortlessly in any shape they wanted. They certainly weren't limited to straight lines or faces.

    In the same way that the Inca primitive stonework is found around and atop the megalithic masonry, the megalithic masonry seems to be built around and atop the third style. I think this bespeaks a respect that the megalithic builders had for what must have been traces of a MUCH earlier civlization.

    I think the nubs appear at the bottom of the stones as if they were injection points and subsequently knocked off or reduced after the setting of the stone. This would definitely leave the tightest of joints after the the stone had slightly shrunk after drying. Also allowing for shaping and trimming while still in a maleable state before cure is complete. The difficulty then is defining the slurry technology that was used in the pour/injection...
