Lost Ancient Technology Of Egypt: Volume 2
The world has had a long time fascination with ancient Egypt dating back to Napoleon and even the ancient Greeks. What we know of the dynastic people largely comes to us from Greek writings and the relatively modern archaeological field called Egyptology. What these academics have largely either ignored and or recognized is that the dynastic Egyptians did not have the capability to quarry, transport or efficiently shape hard stones like basalt, granite and diorite. This tells us that the massive obelisks, stone boxes, pyramid interiors and other megalithic works had to precede the dynastic people and also had to have been made using very advanced high technology, in some cases superior to what we have in the 21st century. This book comes from 6 yearly visits to Egypt, from the Aswan quarry in the south to the Nile Delta in the north chronicling the massive and complex mysterious works of a master civilization that history has forgotten, and historians ignore. The stone shows us the advanced tool marks left behind, the precision surfaces and vast distances that these monuments, some weighing several hundred tons were moved from the quarries. You will also see extensive evidence that whoever these great builders were, they were hit by one or more massive cataclysmic events that likely wiped them off the pages of history. Yet their great constructions remain for us to study and wonder about.
