      I heard a story 30 years ago where apparently an inventor had discovered an alternative power source for vehicles, but was paid rather a lot of money for it to never get developed as the oil industry would have collapsed. Whether it was true or not, who knows. I believe there have been a lot of things invented way before their time that have been forcibly halted as they would have caused too many problems by their existence.

    Given that the Library of Alexandria was built in 283 BC and wasn't burned until 270 AD, the knowledge of this device (perhaps a blue print) may have been stored in Alexandria during the time of its creation. The scrolls or parchment related this device could have been one of those lost knowledge in Alexandria.

  • @StoryWolf

    I know that this is a very old video but a thought occurred to me while watching this about the manuscript. They state that the carbon dating doesn't match too far back for it to be further than the 18th century. Now this is a theory and it might be a stretch, but what if this manuscript isn't the original? Thoughy2 says there are no correction errors in the pages. In that case it sounds like it might have been copied by a source. Now two ideas come to mind here. Either this book was once stored in the Vatican, where they transcribed some old texts that have collected and it somehow ended up in an auction. Or, this could be a copy from a surviving remnant of the library of Alexandria. It was told that this library had many manuscripts and when a new manuscript was donated they would make a copy and send the copy with the donator and keep the original. Now I am not saying that this is one of those original copies, but what if it is one of the ones that is a copy of the copy. Thay could explain the age and why we don't have record of the language. Because if it was one used by Alexandria, thinking if they used a certain code when transcribing or if there was an ancient language that was lost, this could explain why we don't know about it. But like i said its just a theory.

      My theory is that he was on the ship. I mean if you'd made something so remarkable, would you send it off under some else's care? This could explain why there's not much other record of it or him. They both went were lost before he could show it off much perhaps. And if anyone else had seen it prior maybe no one else would believe that such a man and object actually existed unless they could see it too. Also could be why another one wasn't made.

      @Chris Bailey there would be nothing to teach if somebody didn't discover or experience first. In today's society everything is based on learning from somebody else, but in order to get here, we had different people, directly solving their own problems. And even so, mathematics are very ancient, who's to say certain civilisations, if left alone and with a different predominant values wouldn't be able to make great inventions. After all, whatever inventions have been made in history that we recorded, and how many geniuses appear throughout history, has a random factor to it. It isn't too late or too early for something. Also, the world today is way more in synch than it used to, civilisations wouldn't even know of each other sometimes, and would be very different.

    • @artorhen
      @artorhen 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Chris Bailey I am not arguing that Judaism didn't hold people back. But we didn't have a good connection across the world as people and we don't really know if there were other civilisations that simply never came across Judaism. Or maybe it could even be civilisations that were scorn by Judaism. At the same time, Judaism did create a sense of order and morality in a time where you couldn't convince most people of certain concepts. And there is no point being angry about the past as it is simply going to be the same story of how we got this far, that doesn't mean that we can't do something about the present and the future. And in the end it doesn't matter if we get sooner or later to something, even that doesn't mean that the tables never turn in the long run if hipotetically we met a more advanced species.

    • @lucamasri4617
      @lucamasri4617 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      If the language was created by a person, it would of had to have some sort of logic behind it so it could be read by him or anybody else he had wanted it to be read by. (whats the point of writing this down with such precision if you can just remember it). Computers would be able to easily solve any logical algorithm created by a human. So the book is either written by some sort of extra terrestrial being, some sort of super advanced computer or even human that is smarter than any computer or person we have today. OR was created in extreme gibberish with no logical algorithm in which only the man/woman who created the book can understand which, as i mentioned before, would be extremely counter intuitive, inefficient and all in all a waste of time. To me a smart extra terrestrial would be a rather high probability considering all of the strange technology and buildings built many many years before they should of been. Another cool idea however would be if life on earth used to be many times smarter than we are now but discovered something that would've caused devastating effects so they figured out a way to restore everything and let humanity restart. However they left a few relics behind to give humanity as we know it a little bit of a kick start.

      Latin Ace We could build the Great Pyramid today and it wouldn’t require aliens, just like it didn’t back in ancient Egypt. As impressive as the Great Pyramid is, its engineering problems are known and solvable. Sure, a couple of dim-witted scientists in a NOVA television special weren’t up to the task, which only shows they weren’t up to the task. Engineers have articulated in great detail how the pyramid could have been built without modern machinery. Others have proposed that the pyramid blocks were fabricated ancient concrete. Scholars of Egyptian engineering are well informed in Egyptian construction methods, including the pyramids.And isn’t it odd how ancient astronaut theorists never seem to talk about the failed pyramid projects, like the pyramid of Huni. Maybe the aliens were on vacation for that one. And also the Bent Pyramid and the Step Pyramid of Djoser, which was built in stages after altering the non-pyramid burial mastaba style. These are all examples of human engineering, the Egyptians learned how to build pyramids gradually, trying new techniques and learning from failures. Pyramid engineering evolved through various transitions. The pyramids themselves demonstrate this quite clearly. To say they needed alien help is just insulting.
