One of my college professors told the class that if he ever found out that any of his students used Wikipedia for research….he would fail them. In other words, when you hand in your 50,000 word research report….your cited sources page better not contain the word Wikipedia or you’ve had it.
@ghettobabyjesus I presume a source for truth. The original mission statement was based on non-bias. Now it’s used as a dumbing down tool, promoting propaganda.
The idea of coopting and publicizing encyclopedic information isn't in and of itself a problem. That's actually a revolutionary idea. The problem arises with the organization of the labor. If it is a top down hierarchy like most capitalist organizations, then you are forming an authoritarian hierarchy of power that will avoid any situation that will lead to its destruction. Funneling power into a small minority or single entity like that inevitably lets that party make the system work for them instead of the organization as a whole.
When some old crusty professor has spent 30 to 40 years developing archaeological theories and learning all the mainstream science, they don't want to let go of all that hard earned "knowledge." To admit to a radical change in what they've always thought to be true is to disavow every hard-earned bit of their scholastic accomplishment. It's no longer about advancing the science, and all about protecting their scholastic legacy.
One theory has a lot more evidence than the more conspiracy minded theories… It’s quite a leap going from I don’t understand how they did it to they probably used anti gravity technology that was lost to time.
True scientists discover continually, only pseudo scientists do what you say. Your understanding is incorrect, yet there will always be someone in any profession that makes it seem less trustworthy.
It’s very possible that ancient civilizations Used water to move and raise large stones..So the water damage could possibly be from when they built the structures.. There’s a theory on how the great pyramids were built using water you can watch it on youtube.. It’s actually the best theory i’ve seen on how they built the pyramids...What’s more likely them using water to move and raise stones or some magical lost technology?? 😂
Yeah, they claim they couldn’t have used the Nile or other bodies of water due to their location.. As if people haven’t been known to reroute massive rivers even with primitive technology. Just because they run where they do now doesn’t mean that they haven’t been used in the past, and then the dams are usually removed and the river returns to normal once the work is done. The only right answer is that nobody knows and probably never will.
@@justinmartin4662my question to that would be , how could a little wooden boat hold a stone weighing between 2-1000 tons and how do you even get it on the boat? I don’t think you realize how much of a task that is alone. If it can’t be demonstrated there’s no reason to believe that’s how they did it
The Sphinx has to be way older than 10,000 BC because if that was the LAST time there was serious rainfall it would have taken a lot of years to form the rain erosion!
That whole region was fairly lush & green only as little as 5,000 years ago before becoming a sand blasted desert... People seem to forget this fact. That's around the time they claim the pyramids were built and would also explain the erosion without having to go back 11,000 years
@milky right what "facts" am i in contradiction with friend? The Egyptian plateau and all along the Nile river wasn't a dessert full of sand only as little as 5,000 years ago, it was lush and green... This is a known fact, so it can't be that one They claim the pyramids were build 4,500 - 5,000 years ago... So it can't be that fact either There is clear evidence of water erosion (specifically rain fall) on the Sphinx... this to is now a known fact, so it can't be that one either 👍
Different Regimes of water erosion exist depending on the energy of the water. More water moving faster can erode astoundingly quickly. Comparing structures of same material in same area I feel is a good place to start. Heavier water erosion on this structure rather than that structure can give you an order of construction on a timeline.
Gobekli tepe has been clearly explained as a step in the evolution of towns, or villages, in the local landscape. It's not a site in isolation, it's definitely part of a network of villages

Because if people knew they would realize their true capabilities and there would be chaos. People can't even handle having guns imagine if they could create lighting. Truth is that we don't deserve the truth, we simply can't handle that power without killing each other. As much as they keep us in the dark and slaves, it's for the best.
It’s about controlling narratives and then using the narratives to control perceptions and identity. That’s why the cronyism and gatekeeping is being maintained in a hierarchical structure. It’s important to recognize the patterns of manipulation and social engineering in order to facilitate understanding. Whatever has been happening... Has been happening for a very long time... The solar system is entering into a section of its journey around the galaxy that seems to coincide with natural disasters on a very large scale in a cyclical pattern. There is the appearance and potential substance of suppressing the truth and history in order to be unprepared for the unknown event or events and even if something happened in the past and it’s like clockwork... It may or may not be something to worry about... Much like how the asteroid belt is a debris field in the location where a planet could be expected... But we don’t seem to be interested in exploring the situation scientifically... If we were a intelligent species we would have scientific satellites around each of planets and moons in the solar system as well be doing surveys of the asteroid belts and Lagrange points... But we don’t even have plans on paper... We don’t have accurate surveys for the oceans. We are terraforming the planet into a unlivable environment... We are too busy with trivial nonsense and political polarization’s to recognize reality. It’s too many things aligning to keep us off balance, distracted, emotionally manipulated and busy with being busy accomplishing not much of anything.

The same thing has happened in anthropology and Darwin's theory. Most scientists insist that his theory is correct even though it is completely full of holes. Privately they question but publicly it is still taught as if it is the correct answer.

I'm a modern day man, I'm educated, have access to vast amounts knowledge, science and technology, I have plenty of spare time and resources but I can tell you now, I've never woken up with either the time or the effort to start carving monolithic statues out of granite across a many acre site. This things take reason, organisation and surplus. Even less so, are the hunter/gatherer tribes left on the planet today building anything like what we see them supposedly doing 12,000 years ago. I wonder why? (sarcasm)
If you use common sense and just think about it for a minute, you’ll realize just the sheer magnitude and precision required to construct such a monument by primitive means would have been impossible. I agree that there must have been a very important reason or use for the pyramids. The consensus that they were used as tombs just seems highly implausible and ridiculous now.
Yes, massive egos are "threatened", but this cover up is far more sinister. WHEN "THEY" FINALLY ADMIT TO OUR TRUE ORGINS, THE WHOLE STORY "WE" HAVE BEEN TOLD COLLAPSES. But I am preaching to the choir.
The ironic thing is, the harder that scholars attempt to resist/cover just to preserve their legacy, the more tarnished it will eventually be. Talk about playing the short game. In time, not only will that perspective be proven wrong, but they will be shown to have wasted their entire careers and intellect defending it.
Funny how all this stuff is being found in Turkey, which in 2023 is currently experiencing massive earthquakes, with aftershocks that are apparently bigger than the original quake, makes me think of how all this stuff is holding up

There's a great book by Dany Nemu called Science Revealed it explains in a very easy and interesting way how and why people within every discipline and on a personal level when reaching a conclusion about something then don't want to let it go
Maybe so on a personal level But the peer review process keep science advancing That's why you are typing on a device and not chiseling your opinion into stone tablets All humans in every discipline display the worst and best tendencies of human nature Science isn't any different but for one thing ...the method is self correcting over time
@@oftin_wong Agree to a point but how much time and genuine science has been lost. How many careers have been destroyed. How many incredible, world changing inventions have been stolen or buried because of the institutional nature of the system? Just like politics, health etc most people enter with high ideals and find themselves shackled and disillusioned by a system that serves a small few with a restrictive or corrupt agenda. Science should be about the open minded advancement of ideas, using all human capabilities, especially the imagination which is the true seat of advancement. Rationality (the name tells so much) has throttled our evolution.
@norbertdjihnson eh yes and no there is a shit load of bias in peer reviewed work. The church use to be the only credible source of "peer reviewed work" for centuries. The rule of the 10th man needs to be implied in all endeavors until it can be mathematically understood and replicated. If that were the case we could build Giza pyramids all the time without heavy construction machinery as much as we wanted all the time.
Precise cutting and signs of some sort of power tools because revolutions of cutting tools were higher than any person can generate and there were marks left on stones... interesting stuff
@@Leeside999 even if it isn't true. 2.3 million tons of stone hundreds of miles away. Ranging from 2 to 80 tons. The pots made of stone are almost precisely round with such low tolerances. The flat service of those pots too. Machinery had to of done it that precise
@@unitedfirearms1057 "even if it isn't true it's true" Look man, I think the reason we all watch this is because we want to know how it was done. They're incredible feats without solid explanation. But the guys you're listening to, to put it very kindly, are jumping the fucking gun and drawing conclusion based on speculation and no evidence. Sure there are inexplicable markings that denote some other means as yet unexplained. But that doesn't mean alien tech or even more advanced tech than we have today. They simply weren't nearly as advanced as these mystics give credit for. I'm all for pushing the dates back. I'm not for self-assured loony babble. What's next, Baghdad battery was made to generate reactors or some fantastical bullshit? Pyramid lacking in any power storage nor wiring or even electrical compatibility was a generator? Nevermind all the other pyramids that were built that, crazy enough, lack any of those features...
@@praisesol2740 I didn't say that if it isn't true it's still true. I was referring to the weight of the stones that can't be explained. Along with the distance traveled with the material. Forget the marks that I mentioned that show signs of very fast moving objects cutting. The PRECISION is second to none though. If you're familiar with angles and tool and die. This can't be replicated with hand chisels! Tolerances were impeccable. I'm not saying aliens but maybe they were smarter than us today, maybe who built them were the same beings that built solomons temple. We are so arrogant and cocky! You're right about one thing, we will never know! The Great Pyramid of Giza can collect and concentrate electromagnetic energy in its chambers and at its base. They understood subtle, implosive energy. The pyramids were built in an area where more magnetic and electrical current naturally occur. The underground base structure was made of Lime stone & chalk aquafiers that are a highly conductive. (natural source of conducting energies) They had canals built that had water flowing in them, which would enhance the electrical conductive flow and generate electricity. They created a never ending flow of continuous energy, releasing ionized air to travel through the granite shafts and galleries to keep the process going.
If you want to shut up an archaeologist, ask him to show you how the stones in the pyramids were cut. He will attempt to tell you how they were cut, but insist that he show you how it was done. Make him physically cut the stone. Give him the tools available at the time.
That would be ridiculous, it would take a single man a very long time to do it even if he was correct. If they are it would have been many people likely working in shifts for days if not weeks per block. It supposedly took decades to build a pyramid after all, with thousands of workers. Why don’t you ask this guy to show you how his anti gravity theory actually works? That would make more sense.. To be clear, I don’t take either side. Nobody knows, but this guys theories are even more far fetched than the egyptologists, especially since those kinds of tech even with modern technology haven’t been able to do more than bend light..
There is a video on that. Though with the proposed theory the cuts are like a few mm a day. Also, will never match the precision of the ancients. You can look up the video if you want. It's a dude cutting a granite stone with a huge saw and he puts water and sand where the cut is being made to help the saw be able to cut
@@RaduP3 I saw that i think. Just keep in mind, just because there are a few things that we dont know, doesnt mean there was a lost civilization with highly advanced tech. Im a fan of Ben's work, but most of his premises are incorrect from the base. I follow him because i feel he does great research on topics that we actually do not know, such as that of the stone cutting. But the fact that "theory x would explain this" doesnt mean that is actually correct. Furthermore, that is not in any scenario evidence supporting the theory, its simply "compatible" with the theory.
Can confirm archaeologists ignoring Göbekli Tepe. I'm an anthropology student and my former archaeology professor when discussing development of world civilizations he capped it at 6,000 years ago and stated Göbekli Tepe will not be discussed in the class. It is a dogma of humans were hunter gathers which gradually evolved into civilizations as agriculture became more prominent, and thus there is no way past human populations could have been more advanced than us. We're not even allowed to speculate about Atlantis or discuss the possibility of prehistoric civilizations.
@@roryolson61 he has anger management issues. He seems like someone that sticks to dogma and will lash out on anyone he perceives to cross him. Which is why I’m making a formal complaint to the dean after he banned me from his classes.
The problem with all Egyptian archaeology is that it's owned by the Egyptians and they are only interested in one thing - making money from it. They have zero interest in resolving any mystery because if the mysteries were to be solved then there would be much less interest in the area and their revenue streams would be greatly decreased. The Egyptians will continue to exploit every square inch of the archaeological sites for maximum profit till the end of time, any area that even begins to result in progress in understanding will be cordoned off, similar to many other sites around the world that Ben has investigated, its all about profit not understanding. Good luck.
We must discard categories of ancient, primitive, middle, developing and developed ages. Even for the sake of relative development. All are "developed". All.
When people are debunking ''archaeology'' it's easy to forget that much original work and thinking was done by curious Protestant clerics with time on their hands. They weren't engineers or scientists and had very little actual scientific knowledge to work with. Our current knowledge is built on a foundation of their work and guesswork.
Totally agree with your view that mainstream archaeology is a religion with a hierarchic priesthood. I am an Egyptologist frustrated and embarrassed by fellow academics who keep touting the accepted paradigm when new and not so new evidence emerges to change history. What we are finding is exciting and it should be embrased with enthusiasm. We've so much to learn thanks to acedemics from other fields of study like Dr Robert Schoch. The more we find out, and it keeps on coming as Graham Honcock says, the more we realise there's so much we don't know yet. Thank you for your show. I greatly appreciate what your guest Dan is saying. 😊
Was that a stone vase or alabaster vase that had the three pyramids etched on the side of it shown on the picture of your ancient stone work episode? If that was a stone vase taken from the bent pyramid that pretty much proves that the pyramids are way older then khufu's reign.
@@AnswermanAnswerman I was wondering because it's not a perfect representation of the three pyramids on Giza but it is representative. Also, because it's dated 7000 BC, the egg shell, does it not date the pyramids that are shown on the shell as being built already when the shell was ornamented with three pyramids situated close together. Was the eggshell part of the grave goods left in the bent pyramid that were recently discovered? Many have speculated the pyramids of Giza are much much older than the Egyptian king credited as having built them. Is it Khufu? A 7000 year old ostrich egg, displaying three pyramids, iconic. Found in the bent pyramid? The bent pyramid it is supposed to be much much older than the three at Giza. Is that not proof that the the Giza pyramids were built before the bent pyramid. And, in all history what three pyramids are more famous than the pyramids at Giza. What other three iconic pyramids could be represented on the shell? There are many pyramids in Namibia that are more appropriately shaped to what's represented on the egg shell. But, there are no groupings of 3 pyramids that are iconic enough to represent in a token of remembrance as the egg shell was meant to be. Correction? Sudan not Namibia
If recent civilization managed the location using water maintenance, that be their best plead to explain it. Because if it's a natural weather, it makes these megalithic location 'not many moons ago.' Its *many pole-shifts ago* 👀. Cataclysmic recover of new civilization duriation.
In my opinion, Khufu had to be the last major pyramid built because it spans to the Northeast direction. Northeast is a gateway direction. Khufus dimensions are related to the esoterics also found in Buddhism.
The Dynastic Egyptians moved to that land well after all of that was built. It is very likely that the land was previously forbidden to them. The Giza tablets even state that Khafre made repairs to the ancient structures.
It's religion. Christianity claims we've only been here for 6,000 years. That is when creation began, according to them. Is it only a coincidence that there has been evidence for earlier civilizations. Including some cultures own historical records. But the establishment utterly refuses the idea of civilization before 6,000 years. Kind of their own creation story.
1:49 the problems w the rainfall hypothesis are: 1) the sphinx temple was made out of blocks quarried from around the sphinx 2) the sphinx temple was built into the existing khafre valley temple (therefore khafre's temple is older) 3) khafres temple is dated to the reign of khafre (dynasty 4) Schoch's hypothesis is not the only hypothesis. His claim doesn't fit with the other evidence there.
@@sav7568 1) khafre's name is carved on the wall, 2) there were a bunch of statues of him in it (now in museums) and 3) there's a causeway that goes from it directly to khafre's pyramid complex. 4) carbon 14 dating of organic samples, like in bits of wood and mortar found at the site, and luminescence dating of the stone itself, confirm dates in the middle of the second millennium BC, when khafre was supposed to have lived (according to the multiple versions of king lists found all over egypt)

I feel like UnchartedX has many good points re age, inheritance and even type of tools and methods utilized to create many of the artifacts of ancient Egypt. However, I also feel like these points are often lost when he starts talking about “ancient lost high technology” and the like.
Well he is telling the truth so. Even if lets say they didn't have industrial robot like machines that could cut with laser sharp precision, and let's just stick to the official narrative, it's a civ that had way more than we ever imagined from them. I could compare them to almost 1800 technology minimum. Which is still advanced if you think about it. Though i think personally that things are way more than that, I cannot comprehend it yet but I genuinely think I am looking at a great mystery that when revealed will jaw drop us 2023 people
The challenge is $13B a year tourism to Egypt-- which is +4% of GDP and +100% of their military spending. Another way to look at it is that the Pyramids pay for Egypt's tanks.
@@GuruBhaktiram There are ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics that depict some sort of priest or person with a long tube. Some people thought that it was a rudimentary light bulb/lamp and that they powered with a clay pot battery. There is another theory that it is actually an early very rudimentary type of cutting tool that uses changes in pressure from a chamber filled with water to provide high pressure air flow to the tool. Again both are theories but there are multiple depictions of this object, one has never actually been found. So it is all speculation but it is fun to speculate.
The age of the everything in Egypt is much older than that everyone thinks. The sphinx for example, 25 thousand years old . Was built by the Atlantians. The Egyptian people discovered it and then moved in to the area. Just look at the Aswan quarry. There is no explanation to explain how the scoop marks we made. And they are scoop marks. The Atlantian people were very advanced spiritually. The technology of that time was the human body. They knew how to manipulate frequency and move heavy objects with their mind. And change the solid rock so it could be removed from the site.the transportation of the blocks were by levitation. Onto large barges. Then transported to the assembly site. Levitation again into position. Long before the Egyptians arived. The pyramids are around 20 thousand years. The Atlantian people did live for a long time. The flood at the 12 thousand 600 years ago was a correction. The Atlantian people had some very arrogant and negative individuals. That misused there power for unnatural and twisted creations. And the evidence is on the walls. The bodies with animal heads of all kinds. Or reverse, animal bodies with human heads, like the sphinx. This was against the natural law according to the creator's. So it was ended, with a cataclysm and that was the flood.
Damn straight. Never seen those guys change their mind about anything. there is nothing that can be debunked in their eyes because they are so squirmy.
@@blueabattoir I think sometimes people don’t have the capacity to understand a thing as easily but I don’t blame people for that.

These alternative types can’t do that because their whole product lives and dies on being the opponent of anything mainstream.
I wouldn't say "lying", just people refuse to understand the great pyramid was created from scratch way before dynastic egyptians found and remade the pyramids their own. Dynastic Egyptians did GREAT things to the pyramid sites and structures... but as far as we currently know, they could not possibly have built the entire structure over the reign of one pharaoh.
It’s a good point the host makes about the need for language to execute Göbekli tempeh. Clearly this wasn’t done by a bunch of guys In animals skins grunting at each other. It for sure puts the “stupid club carrying cavemen” of any pre-history humans to rest.

And of course look right passed the hundreds of stories of lost past and groups around the world that took to recording history on ROCK! Their world is crashing and they know it and have tried to hide it for sometime now! Bible is a history book, filled with human interpretations of what happened! And there is a lot of research now showing cave drawings are really messages and writing that is similar around the world! Dating back as much as 50,000 years! They still hold to the notion that it all started in the Euphrates river valley, even though they have writing from India and Create that is older and they can’t read! The fall of what is, will happen, just a matter of when! And why?
One thing Ben never talks about is that there is not one, not even one piece of evidence of ‘ancient high technology’ anywhere on earth- only the ‘end product’ which is always an amazing work of art in stone, done by incredibly clever ancient people who worked with stone their whole lives. For generations.
Stop making sense. These people are nuts and they don’t want to hear it. They need to believe in this crap because it makes them feel special. Sad but true.
Archeology is a theoretical study of the past.,.but political and financial incentives make some jump to premature conclusions , so now hypotheses are historical facts..
What do all of the structures built by the mega structure builders that stands today have in common? Knowledge of advanced mathematics, constellations, and all of their buildings are farraday cages. Are any of these pyramid s on earth near the ocean?
I think the problem is religion not so much archaeologists. Before Christianity, there were multiple god/goddess religions throughout the world. Then monotheism came along. Look at all the stuff that has survived the monotheistic religions, pagan belief, zodiac sign, witchcraft etc. All this stuff survived (not all intact) even with Christianity/Muslim careful war on pre monotheistic religions (destroying evidence of these pre-monotheistic religions). Christians destroying the library of Alexandria, the Christian church in the renaissance area destroying people who believed in other things or stated scientific discovery. Isis destroying ancient stone carvings etc. By erasing history, they control the narrative and gives proof to their religion. And humanity's greatest evil, that which they do not understand, they will destroy. Faith will always triumph over science, cause nothing is greater than their misbelief... which is a very great tradegy. Today people are turning to religion and putting their heads into the sand like an ostriches, because they are afraid of the unknown. Before the Hebrews who created monotheism, which created Muslim and Christianity (both monothesitic religions); their was polythesism (or multiple gods). Even the Greek god Zeus had a father (Chronus) who in return had a father (Uranus). The problem is that there are too many anomalies that are creeping up in archaeology for people not to put on their thinking caps. Like the weathering of the Sphinx, the signs of mechanical manipulation of stone (pyramids and the odd shaping of large monolithic stones in all parts of the world). The remains of cities/towns underwater since the younger dyas. The places people should be exploring, underwater in the Persian Gulf, off India, Malaysia, Mediteranrean, Dogger Land, west coast of Africa. On land in the Sahara desert. Using ground penetrating radar, lidar, side scan sonar etc to help see beneath the land and sea. Two places to look at are China and India. These lands contain ancient temples and other artifacts that when you look at, defy even modern understanding on how some artifacts were made.

4:00 gobekli tepe is at least 8000BC-9500BC, not "at least" 10000BC. That dating is generally considered reliable. The same dating method places the sphinx between 2000BC to 3000BC. So if we're going by radiocarbon dating at gobekli tepe, it doesn't help the water erosion hypothesis at giza.
What did they analyze at Giza do you know? I am curious cause you can't date stones, so maybe they carbon dated a wood piece or something used for repairs
@@RaduP3 the sphinx was carved out of the limestone bedrock, and the blocks were used to build the temple directly beside it. There are organic pieces of wood in the mortar between these blocks. This wood can be radiocarbon dated. Stone can also be luminescence dated. It works similar to carbon 14, because there are radioactive isotopes in stone too. Luminescence dating also confirms the sphinx is less than 5000 years old.

It could bring a lot of written papers and careers into question as well as our history as we know it. So the gate keepers refute this stuff at every possible turn to protect the narrative they have nurtured. Once this stuff really takes off and more people see that there were advanced civilisations 10k plus years ago a lot of the mainstream people that disregard it could see their careers go down hill so there are a number of factors but there also isn't that concrete proof to say yes there were structured civilisations that built these huge things and here's where they lived and here's how they lived and survived but we will get the answers eventually and history will be updated.
They have no evidence. All they have is opinions. They can’t understand how how the old structures were made so the answer must be aliens, or Atlantians etc.
The abscense of evidence is the evidence... Example: The Egyptians could not have built the great pyramid. They did not have the technology needed. Must have been built by a previous "lost" civilization. One person can easily handle heavy stone blocks with relative simple techniques. No sci fi needed. Ben is not very well read in the fields of archaeology and history. That is a fact.
5:55 gobekli tepe's significance is that it shows you DONT need a civilization to build a megalithic structure. It was all the stone tools and wild gazelle bones they found, which helped to confidently date it so early in prehistory.

The idea of coopting and publicizing encyclopedic information isn't in and of itself a problem. That's actually a revolutionary idea. The problem arises with the organization of the labor. If it is a top down hierarchy like most capitalist organizations, then you are forming an authoritarian hierarchy of power that will avoid any situation that will lead to its destruction. Funneling power into a small minority or single entity like that inevitably lets that party make the system work for them instead of the organization as a whole.
When some old crusty professor has spent 30 to 40 years developing archaeological theories and learning all the mainstream science, they don't want to let go of all that hard earned "knowledge." To admit to a radical change in what they've always thought to be true is to disavow every hard-earned bit of their scholastic accomplishment. It's no longer about advancing the science, and all about protecting their scholastic legacy.
One theory has a lot more evidence than the more conspiracy minded theories…
It’s quite a leap going from I don’t understand how they did it to they probably used anti gravity technology that was lost to time.

That’s all you people say as if you understand the science behind it. You don’t but it’s a cool story.
It’s very possible that ancient civilizations Used water to move and raise large stones..So the water damage could possibly be from when they built the structures.. There’s a theory on how the great pyramids were built using water you can watch it on youtube.. It’s actually the best theory i’ve seen on how they built the pyramids...What’s more likely them using water to move and raise stones or some magical lost technology?? 😂
Yeah, they claim they couldn’t have used the Nile or other bodies of water due to their location.. As if people haven’t been known to reroute massive rivers even with primitive technology.
Just because they run where they do now doesn’t mean that they haven’t been used in the past, and then the dams are usually removed and the river returns to normal once the work is done.
The only right answer is that nobody knows and probably never will.

Different Regimes of water erosion exist depending on the energy of the water. More water moving faster can erode astoundingly quickly. Comparing structures of same material in same area I feel is a good place to start. Heavier water erosion on this structure rather than that structure can give you an order of construction on a timeline.

The Great Pyramid of Giza can collect and concentrate electromagnetic energy in its chambers and at its base. They understood subtle, implosive energy. The pyramids were built in an area where more magnetic and electrical current naturally occur. The underground base structure was made of Lime stone & chalk aquafiers that are a highly conductive. (natural source of conducting energies) They had canals built that had water flowing in them, which would enhance the electrical conductive flow and generate electricity. They created a never ending flow of continuous energy, releasing ionized air to travel through the granite shafts and galleries to keep the process going.

I found this discussion with Ben to be very objective, informative and interesting! Thank you Gents!
If you want to shut up an archaeologist, ask him to show you how the stones in the pyramids were cut. He will attempt to tell you how they were cut, but insist that he show you how it was done. Make him physically cut the stone. Give him the tools available at the time.
That would be ridiculous, it would take a single man a very long time to do it even if he was correct. If they are it would have been many people likely working in shifts for days if not weeks per block. It supposedly took decades to build a pyramid after all, with thousands of workers.
Why don’t you ask this guy to show you how his anti gravity theory actually works? That would make more sense..
To be clear, I don’t take either side. Nobody knows, but this guys theories are even more far fetched than the egyptologists, especially since those kinds of tech even with modern technology haven’t been able to do more than bend light..
There is a video on that. Though with the proposed theory the cuts are like a few mm a day. Also, will never match the precision of the ancients. You can look up the video if you want. It's a dude cutting a granite stone with a huge saw and he puts water and sand where the cut is being made to help the saw be able to cut

But the fact that "theory x would explain this" doesnt mean that is actually correct. Furthermore, that is not in any scenario evidence supporting the theory, its simply "compatible" with the theory.
Can confirm archaeologists ignoring Göbekli Tepe. I'm an anthropology student and my former archaeology professor when discussing development of world civilizations he capped it at 6,000 years ago and stated Göbekli Tepe will not be discussed in the class. It is a dogma of humans were hunter gathers which gradually evolved into civilizations as agriculture became more prominent, and thus there is no way past human populations could have been more advanced than us. We're not even allowed to speculate about Atlantis or discuss the possibility of prehistoric civilizations.
Seems he is very close minded maybe narrow minded. Wouldn't it be grand if you could study Gobekli Tepe!

The problem with all Egyptian archaeology is that it's owned by the Egyptians and they are only interested in one thing - making money from it. They have zero interest in resolving any mystery because if the mysteries were to be solved then there would be much less interest in the area and their revenue streams would be greatly decreased. The Egyptians will continue to exploit every square inch of the archaeological sites for maximum profit till the end of time, any area that even begins to result in progress in understanding will be cordoned off, similar to many other sites around the world that Ben has investigated, its all about profit not understanding. Good luck.

The Dynastic Egyptians moved to that land well after all of that was built. It is very likely that the land was previously forbidden to them. The Giza tablets even state that Khafre made repairs to the ancient structures.
It's religion. Christianity claims we've only been here for 6,000 years. That is when creation began, according to them.

Even if lets say they didn't have industrial robot like machines that could cut with laser sharp precision, and let's just stick to the official narrative, it's a civ that had way more than we ever imagined from them.

Again both are theories but there are multiple depictions of this object, one has never actually been found. So it is all speculation but it is fun to speculate.
The age of the everything in Egypt is much older than that everyone thinks. The sphinx for example, 25 thousand years old . Was built by the Atlantians. The Egyptian people discovered it and then moved in to the area. Just look at the Aswan quarry. There is no explanation to explain how the scoop marks we made. And they are scoop marks. The Atlantian people were very advanced spiritually. The technology of that time was the human body. They knew how to manipulate frequency and move heavy objects with their mind. And change the solid rock so it could be removed from the site.the transportation of the blocks were by levitation. Onto large barges. Then transported to the assembly site. Levitation again into position. Long before the Egyptians arived. The pyramids are around 20 thousand years. The Atlantian people did live for a long time. The flood at the 12 thousand 600 years ago was a correction. The Atlantian people had some very arrogant and negative individuals. That misused there power for unnatural and twisted creations. And the evidence is on the walls. The bodies with animal heads of all kinds. Or reverse, animal bodies with human heads, like the sphinx. This was against the natural law according to the creator's. So it was ended, with a cataclysm and that was the flood.

One thing Ben never talks about is that there is not one, not even one piece of evidence of ‘ancient high technology’ anywhere on earth- only the ‘end product’ which is always an amazing work of art in stone, done by incredibly clever ancient people who worked with stone their whole lives. For generations.
Stop making sense. These people are nuts and they don’t want to hear it. They need to believe in this crap because it makes them feel special. Sad but true.
There also was no evidence of corpses found in the pyramids either. This has nothing to do with feeling special. Stop being so closed minded.
The pyramid’s are an ancient air defence system.
agree , planetary earth magnetic defence shield
Archeology is a theoretical study of the past.,.but political and financial incentives make some jump to premature conclusions , so now hypotheses are historical facts..
The establishment you talk about willingly or unwillingly deceives the people.
10,ooo bc...how old is that.......? Please Tell me that I didnt hear that .....
12,000 years ago
You heard him right...he did actually say that. I was shocked myself.
What do all of the structures built by the mega structure builders that stands today have in common? Knowledge of advanced mathematics, constellations, and all of their buildings are farraday cages. Are any of these pyramid s on earth near the ocean?
I think the problem is religion not so much archaeologists. Before Christianity, there were multiple god/goddess religions throughout the world. Then monotheism came along. Look at all the stuff that has survived the monotheistic religions, pagan belief, zodiac sign, witchcraft etc. All this stuff survived (not all intact) even with Christianity/Muslim careful war on pre monotheistic religions (destroying evidence of these pre-monotheistic religions). Christians destroying the library of Alexandria, the Christian church in the renaissance area destroying people who believed in other things or stated scientific discovery. Isis destroying ancient stone carvings etc.
By erasing history, they control the narrative and gives proof to their religion. And humanity's greatest evil, that which they do not understand, they will destroy. Faith will always triumph over science, cause nothing is greater than their misbelief... which is a very great tradegy. Today people are turning to religion and putting their heads into the sand like an ostriches, because they are afraid of the unknown.
Before the Hebrews who created monotheism, which created Muslim and Christianity (both monothesitic religions); their was polythesism (or multiple gods). Even the Greek god Zeus had a father (Chronus) who in return had a father (Uranus).
The problem is that there are too many anomalies that are creeping up in archaeology for people not to put on their thinking caps. Like the weathering of the Sphinx, the signs of mechanical manipulation of stone (pyramids and the odd shaping of large monolithic stones in all parts of the world). The remains of cities/towns underwater since the younger dyas.
The places people should be exploring, underwater in the Persian Gulf, off India, Malaysia, Mediteranrean, Dogger Land, west coast of Africa. On land in the Sahara desert. Using ground penetrating radar, lidar, side scan sonar etc to help see beneath the land and sea.
Two places to look at are China and India. These lands contain ancient temples and other artifacts that when you look at, defy even modern understanding on how some artifacts were made.
There's nothing monotheistic about Judaism or Christianity
“Ten thousand bc would be how long ago”.
Is that a trick question.
These ppl are going against the HOA. We all know how that ends... You laugh but the similarities are real. Try and paint your house, put up a pergola, change your landscaping... exchange that with ideas and HOA with your associated science circle and its the same thing. We all like our systems.
4:00 gobekli tepe is at least 8000BC-9500BC, not "at least" 10000BC. That dating is generally considered reliable. The same dating method places the sphinx between 2000BC to 3000BC. So if we're going by radiocarbon dating at gobekli tepe, it doesn't help the water erosion hypothesis at giza.
What did they analyze at Giza do you know? I am curious cause you can't date stones, so maybe they carbon dated a wood piece or something used for repairs
@@RaduP3 the sphinx was carved out of the limestone bedrock, and the blocks were used to build the temple directly beside it. There are organic pieces of wood in the mortar between these blocks. This wood can be radiocarbon dated.
Stone can also be luminescence dated. It works similar to carbon 14, because there are radioactive isotopes in stone too.
Luminescence dating also confirms the sphinx is less than 5000 years old.
@@ryandebruys2762 the top layer is 9500 bc give or take, and the layers below it are?
Seems to me there is no mortar at the sphinx temple?
Luminous dating depends on exposure to the sun, how long was the sphinx buried?
That thumbnail is why people don’t want to listen to alternative theories.
If they had all this tech, why were they still building with stone?
stone literally lasts forever, you think any steel would last 12000 years??
@@daniel-it2lw
So they could make steel if they wanted but they chose to stick with stone. Yeah that's how the progession of technology works. Maybe just a steel vault would have been nice for the king.
@@chrisdanielson1219 did I say they had steel?, no I'm more pointing out anything other then stone would not survive thousands of years, that's why stone is all that remains.
@@daniel-it2lw finally someone who gets it! Well done sir…..stone lasts forever. That is the simple and only answer….unless you consider the erosion of solid rock to form the grand canyon, and mountains of rock weathered away in Zion national park, and all the sand weathered from solid rock or mountains worn down to nubs forming basins. Your rock head may still be around 12000 years after you pass on .
Ben: "10,000 BC"
Konkrete: "How long ago was that"

I prefer the dumb interviewer like koncrete and Joe Rogan because they don't interrupt the person talking. Yes they ask the dumb ass questions once in a while in an interview but its much more enjoyable than the 'smart' interviewers who needs to interrupt the conversation to let viewers know he somewhat knows whats going on.

Love how they don't mention all the grinding stone found at gobekli tepe. Grinding stones with cellular residue from wild grains.
So what? Australian aboriginals both hunted and made simple bread from collecting wild grass seeds for 75,000 years

You should check out the history channel. They actually are saying slaves were kidnapped by white Europeans in Africa. I really like the history channel, but that isn't true.
When did Chumlee develop an English accent?
If that was the case, we would have found far more superior technology than we have. No way is it all lost
It could bring a lot of written papers and careers into question as well as our history as we know it. So the gate keepers refute this stuff at every possible turn to protect the narrative they have nurtured. Once this stuff really takes off and more people see that there were advanced civilisations 10k plus years ago a lot of the mainstream people that disregard it could see their careers go down hill so there are a number of factors but there also isn't that concrete proof to say yes there were structured civilisations that built these huge things and here's where they lived and here's how they lived and survived but we will get the answers eventually and history will be updated.
Good thumbnail
If you make these claims as Ben does, you need to back them up with absolute proof. Where is your evidence, Ben?
They have no evidence. All they have is opinions. They can’t understand how how the old structures were made so the answer must be aliens, or Atlantians etc.
The abscense of evidence is the evidence...
Example: The Egyptians could not have built the great pyramid. They did not have the technology needed. Must have been built by a previous "lost" civilization.
One person can easily handle heavy stone blocks with relative simple techniques. No sci fi needed.
Ben is not very well read in the fields of archaeology and history. That is a fact.
They have figured out that it was not deliberately buried it was buried under circumstances they don't understand
so someone put dirt over the site? almost deliberately burring it?
5:55 gobekli tepe's significance is that it shows you DONT need a civilization to build a megalithic structure. It was all the stone tools and wild gazelle bones they found, which helped to confidently date it so early in prehistory.
You're a tool, mate.
No age is primitive.

And now Turkey and Syria are experiencing Earthquakes. As soon as people catch on to what is going on and questioning it, cataclysmic events start occurring.
Are Turkey’s excavation sites located in these areas hit by Earthquakes?
