      UncharteredX is also really good. There is a series of documentaries that are only 10 or fifteen minutes each and there are 6 of them. Any rational thinking person and absolutely anyone who has worked in construction are stunned at the official narrative. Here's the first one th-cam.com/video/VGtDAHRK8s0/w-d-xo.html

    On the trail of giants. Looks like much we see in Peru. Polygonal style of building. Amazing air shots! The rocks are so old yet they look so fitted together so well still. tightly. The amphitheater is truly a stunning work of art. Some seriously genius minds behind this architecture.

    Homeric Greek has two different words for "wall,"
    One is for regular stone walls. The other is for polygonal walls, translated as "well-built walls". The texts even name the cities that have the "well-built" walls.

    • @larrycyprus3052
      @larrycyprus3052 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think you need to consider the phrase "Set in stone" when you talk about "Well built walls". They probably used geopolymer technology to build the Egyptian Pyramids and King Soliman's Temple.
      I have started recording my thought, please forgive my early presentation but they do improve!

      Actually greeks today have many words for walls and Homer has used even more. But Homer indeed referred to "Teichos" and "Agakleoi". "Teichos" (τεῖχος): This term refers to regular stone walls, typically those constructed from roughly shaped stones or bricks. These walls were common in many ancient Greek cities and were used primarily for defense and to delineate city boundaries.
      "Cyclopean Walls" (κυκλώπεια τείχη) or "Well-built walls" (ἀγακλεής τείχος)*: These terms refer to the massive, polygonal walls made from large, irregularly shaped stones fitted together without mortar. These walls are often associated with Mycenaean architecture, especially in cities like Mycenae and Tiryns. The term "Cyclopean" is used because later Greeks believed that such enormous walls could only have been built by the Cyclopes, the mythical giants.

    Where’s the rest of the stones? Has anyone ever excavated, maybe those are parapet walls and the structures go deep under the natural ground level. I find it strange that most of the site has been left at almost the the same height which is incomplete and too low. How was the site destroyed, because there’s no blocks that came off the walls if the walls are to be taller?

    I have worked in construction my entire adult life and I'm nearly 60. I cannot for the life of me work out how they constructed Polygonal stonework, unless they used Geopolymers or vibrational technology lost to us. One thing is certain though. Archaeologists are full of shit.

    Thanks for making and posting this video, great stuff! I had never before heard about this site, and I find it very interesting to see a kind of masonry reminiscent of the famous stone structures found in South America. You used the word sophisticated - and that, in my view, describes these structures exactly. Not only is such a construction method superior in areas around the globe where earthquakes are not uncommon, but these stones reveal the necessary thought and care needed to build them. The sheer beauty seen all over this site indicates a highly developed civilisation, and I suspect that most viewers of this video are likely to "tip their hat" to these ancient people - I certainly do!

    • @chrismalcomson7640
      @chrismalcomson7640 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Apart from the original idea, which would have been observable in the natural world, the making of these incredible polygonal walls would have been just a matter of practice and technique. You only have to look at anyone of the numerous video's on youtube to see how skilled people can become at anything, if they really put their mind to it. The interesting question is how this obscure technology spanned the world in ancient times, apparently in isolation... I guess in any city state, you're either really good at making it work or you get invaded and destroyed

    How awesome you get to explore this. The masonry is in some places very precise and others more rough. Where it is nice though it is very nice. The reason this is still there is how wonderful it is at withstanding earthquakes and shakes. Very good engineering, we should use similar techniques for foundations, but we can't. Why not?

  • @flintycustard8406
    @flintycustard8406 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Theory : Geopolymer wall construction was accomplished by filling containers made of natural fibre with geopolymer concrete mix placed one on top another , the sides held in place by what ever flat rigid material available. this accounts for the close fitting of the blocks that are of different shapes : The natural fibre containers were simply left to rot away and some of the blocks show evidence of bulging at the sides because the mix had not cured sufficiently to fully take the weight of the block placed on top of it. The blocks themselves show uneven weather erosion where the aggregate used in the mix has crumbled away.

      Where are the burial sites? Gilgamesh's tomb was discovered in the late 1990's and before Iraq could comply it, George Bush and his secret societies cronies declared WMD'S then invaded to be able to go in and loot the tomb.
      Gilgamesh was 2/3 Anunnaki Nephilem.
      Most of the original builders of polygonal stone work left after they completed their mission of mining gold for their planet (Nibiru) and left with their equipment on their spaceships by 500bc according to the books written by Zecharia Sitchin.

  • @chrismalcomson7640
    @chrismalcomson7640 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    These walls were built like this because they're earthquake proof. You see them using a similar method in Spain for retaining walls using no motar. Once you've got the technique right for measuring each block I'd imagine these walls can be built surprisingly quickly. We're talking about the ancient world where time would have been viewed differently and crews of workers building these polygonal walls would have been a permanent sight in these places.

    polygonal masonry baffles me...even if you only wanted to try and create a tiny replication of it and you tried doing it with any material you wanted, like for instance lumps of soft chalk ..or lumps of Plasticine...cement or with small rocks ....any material you want .... it would still be incredibly difficult to make a replication that looks like the real thing. You just could't pick a more impossibly difficult way to build a wall even if it does have good earthquake resistance.

    Absolutely impossible for ordinary humans to have created such places so we have two options: Aliens with high tech or advanced humans who used what we would call magic but is really a level of understanding of elemental forces beyond our comprehension. Jesus told his disciples when asked how he could perform the works he did (miracles) but they could not answered with "“Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” The builders of such places were spiritually pure and COULD perform magic. Humans have fallen so far into the material world that we have lost such abilities.
