What you said about fitting the stones has always intrigued me, I was a builder for 55 years and I've wondered how exactly they fitted the stones together without having to move them up and down and up and down again. Because I don't think they could have possibly fitted the stones together perfectly the first time. Maybe they had a solution for this. But it's definitely a head scratcher for sure. Great video as always!
@@wout123100 At the end of what they now refer to as "The Younger Dryas" there is world wide evidence of a global cataclysm, there is some debate as to it’s actual cause, some say possibly massive meteors impacting the earth others have different views as to its cause, but that something of a global nature did occur at that time, they are virtually all now in agreement, as the evidence is just to overwhelming! May I respectfully suggest that you first do at least a little personal research on the subject, rather than just relying on popular opinion, you may find the results of your investigations very interesting.
I doubt there was ever a "world wide flood", but there is archeological evidence for catastrophic flooding in the pre historic Mediterranean and middle east, reflected not only in the Biblical account, but in the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Flood by Aristophanes. Few stories do not have some basis in fact. @@wout123100
@@wout123100they are too captivated by the magic of it all to see the truth. Men carved these stones which is amazing. They are so drawn in by the fantasy of it all that such a simple answer will never suffice. Amazing builders though. Must of took weeks to measure and cut all them stones
Once again much older than the mainstream wants to admit. "Oh, the Romans did it". "Oh, the Inca did it". Maybe someday we can recover our history. Thank you for the walk thru. Every day I come across more sites with megalithic construction that just doesn't fit the conventional narrative and surprisingly similar to sites on the other side of the world.
Dude you need to look up the Romans largest construction projects they built which we know they built do to historical records recording there entire construction. They are vastly more impressive than anything in this video. There's nothing inherently "impossible" about polygonal masonry.
Seems to me that someone knew quite a lot about load-bearing stresses, and my guess about the multi-faceted stones and polygonal masonry in general is , besides the beauty of it....they seem to hold up for centuries and millenia without mortar , seem to be seismic-proof, just awesome! thank you, New sub❤
There was this discussion at Joe Rogan with Graham Hancock and Flint Dibble, who apparently came very well prepared and forced Graham to say that indeed we have no hard evidence for the existence of the ancient pre-Younger Dryas civilization. True. But I believe we are staring at it just like here, or the Sardinian nuraghi, and just because we cannot date the stones, we cannot claim it existed. But it seems so very obvious... What is strange is that Göbekli Tepe was dated by some organic material from between the stone cracks, so it is possible this way, but nobody ever tried to do a comprehensive review of these polygonal masonry walls for the organic material underneath...
16:58 this view is very obvious how later construction utilised the older structure the difference is night and day, but somewhat odd looking. Maybe just used for storage.
This is simply the best way to build walls without mortar. Considering every great civilization used the technique it doesn't seem to be some hidden secret as to how to build polygonal walls everyone could do it.
Polygonol and cyclopean walls were built to be earthquake proof. As Velikovsky explained, earthquakes were far more frequent and violent all over the world in the early years of the first millennium BC. This is because our planet had recently experienced a comet-induced cosmic catastrophe and it took centuries for the earth's tectonic plates to settle again. Velikovsky's ideas explained so much about ancient history, but he demonised and suppressed. Read his 1956 book "Earth in Upheaval".
The design is clearly used for anti earthquakes. The idea behind it is very very clever. Its not randomly put together at all. You would put a turret on the outside of the wall for clear line of sight to shoot arrows at enemies that are near the wall trying to get over.
How long does it take for weathering like this to happen? All over the world structure like this exist. In a few cases, if they have been buried, they are fresh and clean.
Great stuff. But could you describe which type of stones there are...limestone, etc.? It is so interesting to see the contrast between the ancient megalithic stones and the more modern, small, rough stonework on top.
@@StoneRiddles I am planning a trip to Italy. Which 3 cities woulg you suggest visiting? I am thinking Alatri, Amelia and ? All should be no farther from Rome than these two are Thanks!
Well, Norba is one of my favourites, but it's south, so in another direction. Cosa might be an option, a little bit more than 1 hour north of Rome, and on a fast highway. Else, there are many in the area of Alatri, like Ferentino (10 min. from Alatri), Cassino, Arpino, and many more, all within a 30 min ride from Alatri
BTW, Amelia is a little out of the way... It's not the distances that count, but the type of roads you can find, and they're not always the most straight. And, I forgot, very very nice is Alba Fucens!
Early polygon walls: Etruscan? They might have used templates to cut them to fit rather than trial and error, would be interesting to know what tools were used? All limestone?
I believe each stone is cut to its own structural integrity... with each stone cut differently to account for gravity & structure strength ... by a computer & the weight not a concern at the time of construction (Pre-Flood)
im just wondering if they melted rock using a giant magnifying glass or some laser canon like in star wars.. molded it in place like a semi consistent putty, then have to wait for it to dry until they poured and molded the one that they were going to put next to it. 🤔
Ciao, si trova sulla collina di Ansedonia, nel sud della Toscana, a pochi km dal confine col Lazio. Se hai interesse per le mura poligonali, ti consiglio di guardare il mio documentario in Italiano a questo link (il mio canale principale): ua-cam.com/video/-w5oo5z1nbM/v-deo.html . In alternativa, sempre sul mio canale principale trovi anche la versione inglese oppure su questo canale trovi la versione divisa in episodi, uno per ogni sito visitato nel documentario.

There are many forms of polygonal masonry. Some are easy to understand, but some are completely beyond understanding. Without separating out the inexplicable ones from the understood ones this is not helpful, and only makes the confusion worse.
These sites are the petrified cellular remains of enormous prehistoric plants. Grown not built. Found occupied and exploited by humans but grown from the same natural processes needed to grow a planet. Compare: polygonal blocks to the cellular structure of the living Methuselah tree. ( Curse of the Methuselah Tree 12:20 ). ⚜️🪷⚜️
Great stuff
It’s clearly a superior construction method as we are still gazing at it in situ thousands of years later

Pre flood for sure along with it's fellows all over the earth, great video . Thank you.
another dumb one, there has never been a worldwide flood..jeees

And also seems to be no progression of the building technique it's just there, big, strong and precise.
WOW!! Incredible! Thank you for sharing
Justine ~ that was my exact thought before scrolling into the comments.
Thank you! You might appreciate this video on my other channel (drone views of Cosa) ua-cam.com/video/8UIQwGS7eqQ/v-deo.html
good video i like it! nice and calm voice, great to listen to
thanks!!
Great video, I can almost make out animal shapes formed from so many complex shapes.

Great angles and proportional human scale,which communicates the scale much better.its mysterious and relaxing watching this with a slow pace
Glad you enjoyed it!
The interlocking of the keystone shapes is perhaps designed by engineers who are fully familiar with earthquakes.
This is such a underrated comment, very little people have even a remote clue about these monolithic ancient heterogeneous structures.
Excellent video 👍

A major fort of protection and defense. I can only imagine what is under the ground!
It look like that those perfectly fitted polygonal walls are concrete, a type of superior concrete.

I guess some kids are just better with LEGOS than others....😅❤
Makes me wonder why the technique of polygonal wall building was never used again in any roman architecture, how that understanding was lost.

I believe each stone is cut to its own structural integrity... with each stone cut differently to account for gravity & structure strength ... by a computer & the weight not a concern at the time of construction (Pre-Flood)
The big polygonal stones were done by ancient, long gone, unknown civilizations of who we know nothing about
Purpose built, must have some self setting properties to the design that allows it to move but stay upright and level.
Not cut but poured…respect from Hungary
that is fantasy.
Tagliato non versato
im just wondering if they melted rock using a giant magnifying glass or some laser canon like in star wars.. molded it in place like a semi consistent putty, then have to wait for it to dry until they poured and molded the one that they were going to put next to it. 🤔
Obviously poured, perfect joints every time!
QUESTION: I'm Italian and I don't know this site. Could you tell me where it is? Thanks a lot!
Good job!

"...red arrows look ugly..."
Definitely I agree. Seems like they don't know what to do with the maintenance funds they get
Geopolymere for sure😮 thanks for a good view on this lost civilisation !
I'm creating a map of megalithic sites, can you please tell me where i can find those walls
42.41288722611912, 11.2858819454859
I seen a study on neanderthal DNA and Tuscany came back the highest amounts. It sure helped them build a lot 👍🤟✌️
Cosa nostra!
Always show map !
There s many Cosas in Italy
It's Cosa near Ansedonia, southern Tuscany, just right by the sea. Cheers
Geopolymer
Same pattern with the Ancient Greek walls.
What are those ugly looking red arrows poking out of the ground all around for?
Same ?????
Art maybe?
These were originally brick walls.
👍 A prison, turrets on the outside.
Peru stones where heated up at the end of the proces
These here werent
Bravo Mirko

Thank you for your comment. Please elaborate on your idea of "inexplicable" and "understood" types of polygonal walls.
