- We visit the Sarapeum in the necropolis of Saqqara to inspect the 67 ton precision crafted granite boxes supposedly made to inter sacred bulls.
Christopher Dunn measurements: • The Serapeum, Part I: ... @12:57
Measurements performed by Egyptian Engineer; • توابيت السرابيوم
Yes, the Sarapeum was built with copper tools, just as the Stealth Bombers were built with elmers glue and popsicle sticks.
Very much appreciate the quality and tone of the speaker's voice.
Thank you!
I lived in Egypt for many years mainly from the early 1980's til the late 1990's. On Fridays one of the things to do was go horseback riding out at the Pyramids and in the surrounding fields along the edge of the desert, which were not built up and developed at the time but agricultural land growing mango, radish and barseem.
Early one winter Friday I took a horse from SA Stables and rode along this greenish line edging the desert to Saqqara a forty five minute ride or so, perhaps a little longer, depending on the horse. Just as we neared Saqqara I came upon an old fellahin crouching beside a circular hole in the sand, a couple of metres across and ringed by an ancient looking iron handrail partly placed around this opening.
I wished him good morning in Arabic, walked the horse around the hole and peered down into the depths. There was some kind of chamber about 35 metres below. A vertical steel ladder lead down to a sandy floor. Partly visible lay what looked like a large stone sarcophagi tilted and abandoned to one side.
Dismounting I gave the reins to the old man to hold, which he took without bothering to rise to his feet, went back to the hole, swung my legs over the railing and clambered down the steel ladder into the chamber.
I had no flashlight but the strong Egyptian sunlight made a cone of light in which I could see, when down on the floor below, several dozen more sarcophagi, some with lids, some without, some with lids partially in place. A low roofed tunnel stuffed to the ceiling with more sarcophagii went off into the gloom in the general direction of the Step Pyramid.
A few of these abandoned sarcophagi had been lined up neatly enough, side by side and close enough to be touching, along the east side of the corridor. But the rest looked as if they had been scattered by some gigantic flood!
Widening my search along the tunnel sometimes having to clamber over the sarcophagi squeezing between lid and a low ceiling, as the underground chamber, or stone mason's yard, whatever it was moved roughly in the direction of the Step Pyramid which would have been a short walk above ground. Down here who could tell? Ahead lay more sarcophagi just as disarranged and the tunnel ceiling appeared to be narrowing, the air becoming stuffy so I decided to call a halt to this particular adventure.
Retracing my steps to the ladder, I climbed up to the sun and fresh air to find the old fellahin waiting patiently with my horse.
I gave him 50 piastres for his trouble which was quite a lot of money in those days.
Seeing this video brought back old memories-hence the story, as well as providing a better understanding.
After looking at the map of the greater and lesser vaults I think that the entrance down the ladder I found that day might have been at the northern tip of the lesser vaults and that the 'flood' was more likely caused by Mariette's dynamite.
Quite a story;)
So the boxes were not empty after all, they contained breathtaking evidence of precision of construction.
And the precise geometry of the cuts make it so that if filled with water during an earthquake they won't spill any water? Weird..
@@Mortismors that's because they were used to create a hydrogen reaction. The specific materials, dimensions and weight were to ensure it could withstand the pressure from the reaction
No he said they were empty
@@Weenis416 Words confuse you don't they.
And they contained space! Perhaps they were paying respect to the most divine non-thing of all - space "itself".
An excellent presentation.
One of the more mysterious ancient finds and presented here very well. It's perplexing, especially the unfinished one with its hubs.
This is the best new find of RUclips Channels in a long time. Great work! -New Subscriber
Welcome aboard!
It didn’t occur to me just how big they are until someone stands next to it , amazing ,
I love this series. have been watching them for days. thanks for all this incredible work. you are much appreciated. cheers.
Glad you enjoy it!
it's fascinating that egyptologists dismiss away all this early tech as being accomplished recently and with simple human power.
However, the suppossedly superior civilazation with more modern tools STILL considers these objects virtually immovable AND used explosives and steel pry bars just to see inside! Technology indeed!
Not to mention the entire facade of the egyptians building the pyramids, forgetting what they were there for (theyre not burial chambers) and then looting the casement stones for their own building projects while looting and otherwise trashing the place.
They dumped a diorite statue on its head into a pit. This is not indicative of a culture who spent a long time creating these artifacts. And their use is unknown to the vapid egyptologists who try desperately to constrain everything to their comfortable timeline
I’m so glad RUclips suggested your channel! I’m learning mind-blowing new thinks every day! Many of your topics I have not previously heard about - thank you!
Look for unchartedX channel. It's better imho
I think we would all agree, the Gliffs were added after, you would not go through all precise work just to scratch the surface in a very untidy fashion.
Glyphs.
@ Cure It. It could be that they were “roughed out”. Hadn’t been finished yet. Not dissimilar to how a artist roughs out a sketch, then fleshes it out with paint.
Such a well presented video so thatnk you for that ! The subject is endlessly fascinating and try as I might I can't think of how ANY of the perfect ancient constructions around the world were achieved without a level of skill and knowledge that simply disappeared for some reason that I also can't fathom !
Are the bottoms of the boxes smooth too? I guess nobody has dug around or under them.
That would be interesting to know.
I didn't realize how big the boxes were until @ 04:03 and holy crap they're huge! 🤯
Size is ok. But that stone Only exist in the deepest under volcanoes.
Love your channel!
I literally spent hours watching totally in awe.
Glad you enjoy it!
I met a guy who was a local there - I asked him about them, hes said the people there are not aloud to talk about them, can get in trouble but everyone knows. which made me curious so I kept bugging him until he gave in and told me - He reckons they had alien bodies inside them. he was not joking either.
These boxes is probably the most compelling evidence of advanced technology being used, found anywhere in the world. Along with the massive box found on the elephantine island.
The scooping out is super interesting. There is no way these were made the way they say, for the purpose they are saying.
On the south Pacific island of Nan Madol there are megalithic structures. When the natives were asked how the big stone blocks were moved, they all said that the stones "flew through the air".
What IF they placed some type of being in there alive.. some type of imortal being or God? Literally anything is possible for me with ancient egypt. I was in Egypt several times in the 90’s with my father as a kid. Even then I got a feeling something wery special was once there. Thank you for the video I love them all!
They couldn’t have pick a more difficult stone to work with. There are also some similar boxes in the Osiris shaft also in niche’s. To make them practically hermetically sealed seems to indicate something of great importance. One can only guess, but I suspect they took the means and evidence with them.
I think the reasons for their material choices were centered around function rather than ritual...I just wish we could find the tools.
Another possibility on the original purpose of these giant stone boxes is that it was containing crushed dead animals to produce gas ammonia, Ammonia, Salts and Steam water mixture were used as refrigerant during running operations of the Pyramids. m.ruclips.net/video/oTLKkeCbr_c/видео.html
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture Agreed. It's the reason why the boxes were not "pretty" looking and some had scoop marks where the stone was compromised. These were absolutely functional as opposed to "ceremonial."
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture prob diamond dust. Just like what we use. Leaves no trace
@@coryCuc of course. It's silly people think everything they find of dead people represents death. elaborate buildings are for the living.
The Serapeum of Saqqara is a mummy factory (vacuum dessiccator). The mummification/dessiccation process lasted X amount of weeks. You could make 24 mummies every X amount of weeks.
Wouldn't it be something if some day we were to actually figure out how all these creations were made.
If I could hop in a time machine this is when/where I'd go. Can you imagine what these places looked like during the height of their construction??
Soooooooooooo so so so cool - just amazing. Thank you for this.
Glad you enjoyed it!
8th wonder of the ancient world !
It they scooped out fissures to prevent the fissures from growing, they must have _really_ not wanted the contents to escape for a very very long time. I don't think those boxes were empty when opened...
I would love to design a drone to go down those passages. There appears to be several tunnels that head under water to unknown locations. Hall of Records?
Very interesting archeological site, another I never heard of before, its mind blowing to think such epics were made without modern tools/machinery.
Actually, the largest granite quarry / fabricators in the US stated that they could not duplicate the boxes in one piece, so much for modern tools.
Thanks
Those Sarapeum boxes had logic of form following function. They seem like pressure containers to me. For what....well...that's where my imagination fails me. But clearly whoever it was that could create such vessels knew full well the purpose, didn't they?
A few things we are not being told about.
i think the same the heavy lids were needed to contain the pressure inside
Yup.
@@spartacus979 My only problem with this idea is: what would be the mechanism to introduce positive pressure, or evacuate for negative pressure?
Need to inspect the original floor. Finished where they sit and fine tuned. Lids can rotate. Not for bulls. Insane.
Have the boxes ever been measured for radioactivity or other kind of radiation (sound, radio waves, UV, etc.) whether emitted, reflected, absorbed or resonate?
I do not know, I have never encountered any documentation on that, although google is not the greatest when it comes to searching for scientific papers; such a study would certainly be helpful.
This place doesn't make sense at all. The academic explanation about bulls is pardon the pun " bullshit".
Like the channel. ...Please use a "Popper Stopper" or something that doesn't make my Subwoofer rumble when you speak. Thanks!
All of this is quite baffling how they got them down there and into their niches just like the the sarcophagus down inside of the Osiris shaft that is surrounded by water supposedly Osiris's grave how the hell did they get that thing down there
Rolling the boxes on wood rollers is a nonsense. If that was the case the box in the corridor, that has not been placed in its vault would have remnants of wood underneath it, which it hasn’t. This site, for some reason, was abandoned before completion, like a lot of ancient sites throughout the world. 👍
Sharp catch. Critical thinking is a rarity these days. It's all about agreeing with the narrative instead of thinking for yourself.
I have also noted the great number of sites around the globe, where it seems as though all was abruptly abandoned in haste, and never returned to. I suspect catastrophe.
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture have to agree. It would appear that a catastrophic event happened causing the abandonment of these sites, and that, as we know, the technology they possessed was lost forever. It would appear too that there has been more than one catastrophic event. Enjoying your videos. 👍
@Ancient Architecture. Interesting notion. I’m going to have to look up any natural events up to the time it was abandoned. Comet, asteroid strike, eruption(s).
BTW I read those links you sent from the statue examination video. VERY interesting. Thank you again.
Im not a scientist or metallurgy expert or a mason, but shouldn't there be some copper particles or something left over on some of these granite boxes or statues or building blocks or something? Ive never seen or heard anyone taking a cotton swab to some of these artifacts and looking under microscope to see if tool particles were left behind
Cotton swaps won‘t do it. I’m not an expert either but you could likely only see it with a microscopic device that analysis the surface on a deep level.
@8:16 states "Has hieroglyphs on all four sides" but not what it says. Can no one read the hieroglyphs?
I have not been able to find a translation. I'm sure there is one, but living in the most remote city on the planet means I have to rely on google, and google is shit for that kind of search.
Would've loved to see these boxes intact. My mind can't even think of what would they be used for. Trying to find a reasonable explanation, but failed 😬🥴
I have a guess, grain storage, from way before the Greeks and Romans found them and called them bull coffins.
@@peterdeans4635 There's no chance you'd make such well made boxes to store grain.. why go to all the effort, that could be stored in a pot. Or a crudely shaped box.
@@peterdeans4635 How many people do you think they could feed and for how long with the amount of grain stored in those boxes?
It's almost as if they went out of their way to do something incredibly difficult, but for no purpose. Unless that's what they were trying to do, show how advanced they were to future civilisations, and they knew that stone was the only thing that would last long enough to be found.
You can climb inside them for a couple of quid that's what I did great energy Inside this is a form of batery storage units that's what I think
It's been claimed at least one was filled with bitumen, in which was suspended myriads of shattered bones. It would seem very difficult to remove every trace of that bitumen. People describe a seeming polish or finish that seems to drip and adhere to the underside of a lid. If it is a substance and not merely a finish, surely someone there could take a scraping for chemical analysis
I've encountered the bitumen story, but have never been able to track down the bitumen or the bone fragments in any museum.
Visitors to the Sarapeum ( and most other sites ) are always accompanied/watched. Breaking the rules ( such as taking unauthorized samples ) is swiftly dealt with.
Academics explanations for these and other items in Egypt make absolutely no sense to anyone with common sense, we cannot duplicate the accomplishments of the ancient world even with today's technology
I think im looking at giant cells in an even bigger battery, iv seen similar although not quite the same in other parts of the world.
No soot on the ceilings.
Fire was not the light source.
Actually, one notices this in many of the underground works and inside monuments such as the pyramids.
I dont know what or how they would connect it to, but their power source could easily be baghdad batteries
Did they have magical copper and flint? They are far softer then granite on the hardness scale
The Mayan and Azteca used volcanic rock obsidian to carve granite . They found cocaine in mummy's. So there was definelty shipping from South America to Africa.
Every time I look at these boxes, I can't help but believe they were used (or intended to be used) for food and grain as a long term storage in case of an impending emergency or catastrophe.
so... people back in time were VERY strong...
Right, so when you needed some wheat to make some bread you could just go down and lift up the 24 ton lid and scoop out enough to make however many loaves of bread you needed. And then carefully put the lid back in place.
Seed bank
Artifacts that were discovered and reporposed by the Egyptians. Nephilim and preflood world artifacts/ruins
Those could've been made to contain something, to prevent it from ever getting out 😁
Containment was clearly the most important thing. During transit down the corridors the boxes would acquire additional minor cracks so finishing at the final location is logical. Polishing would remove invisibly small micro-fractures from the surface which might grow over centuries.
As for the contents: radioactive waste fits all the observed facts. Where did it go? Decayed, like all radio-isotopes do. Anyone tested with a Geiger counter?
The “sarcophagus” weighs more than a Caterpillar D9 bulldozer
Yah....no worries, we'll just slip some wood rollers under it and have it out of there in a jiffy!
No, wait.....the weight would crush the wood into splinters...Lemme get back to you on that.
LOL!
If you have a lack of technology and imported goods, the ultimate way to display wealth would be extreme examples of workmanship, and the ultimate would be very precise, well finished, very hard rock.
Alternatively, if you wanted to leave evidence of an advanced civilisation (if they were aware of an impending disaster), the ultimate way would leave very precise, very hard rock sculptures, near a massive stone structure that could be found be a future advanced civilisation.
Bronze could not carve this material.
@ Rob Weaver. But an object as hard or harder can
I think its fair to say they had machines to machine the rocks. They had some kind of crane.
Of course they did.
Many people who hear the word 'machine' automatically can only think of our modern examples, but a machine is defined as...
'an apparatus using or applying mechanical power and having several parts, each with a definite function and together performing a particular task.'
You will notice the definition makes no mention of exotic materials, electric or combustion motors, digital controls, wires, batteries or sophisticated bearings.
Simple machines that are widely used include the wheel and axle, pulley, inclined plane, screw, wedge and lever. All of these things can be made from wood, bronze and stone.
The Roman engineers used simple cranes of wood and rope that could lift weights of many tons.
And, these simple machines would not necessarily survive for millennia.
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture i think this case is plain impossible to explain without very powerful and sophisticated engine we modern humans would struggle to manufacture or even invent today. the boxes are so massive and the corridors are so tight and underground, they would be literally impossible to move into their places with human or animal force alone. this cannot be overlooked. if we exclude the possibility of literal levitation we must assume the whoever built this vault system had access to at least equivalent to modern science and technology.
We do indeed see their drawings of them, the very same ones I listed above. Inclined planes, wedges, screws, levers, rollers.
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture very simply the builders wasn't ancient egyptians.
The owners of this channel also do not believe in atlantis, outside help, lasers, aliens or whatever. If you can find a reference to any of those factors in any of the videos, please point them out with timestamps.
🧠These underground “labs” make me think of what we do with our highest tech like CERN--We put it underground--Any thoughts?
Many thoughts but no real leads, thanks to the primitive practices of the 19th century 'explorers' who raped and pillaged their way through these ancient sites in search of 'treasure'....naked greed, as is so often the cause, creates much anguish for those in search of the truth.
A bull collider?
great video!
one point, just because one unfinished box and lid was found doesn't mean all the others were completed inside.. it's possible that the box was moved inside for storage before the site was abandon. is there a empty chamber where that box was supposed to go?.
Of course, in an infinite universe absolutely anything is possible.
when the boxes were first time opened, it would be interesting to explore the dust from inside.
we don’t understand reason of this mighty boxes. it must be very important for them. and important,that they are smooth.
the darkness is the next question. but maybe it wasn’t necessary, because of machines did it?
It is a shame so many discoveries were made before forensic analysis was even a concept, and that evidence associated with the discoveries was not labeled and preserved.
Maybe they were a bank vault for the prior civilisations elite.
Ancient Egyptians found them and got one opened and put a bull in it.
We discover this and assume the ancient Egyptians were sacrificing bulls at a sacred temple.
But really it's just banks vaults from times past.
Seems no ones been able to steal the safe boxes in over 13,000 years, although one was almost taken out. (Not being brought in, as assumed about the one that sits in the hallway.)
Maybe, I dunno
Knowing how Ancient Egyptians were able to create such structures you don't need another imaginary civiization in the equation. They simply abandoned the project doing something very stupid like closing the lids of other vaults first because "it is too much work to lift them with pulleys again" and wanted to end with that task in hand quickly. Or even because the lids took too much space within the structure and the passing time rot the bodies of other bulls and decomposed them so they failed. They only managed to get one bull in before its body started to rot. They effed up.
@@thesecretlibrary890 really?
Did you see how precise they are made?
Did the ancient Egyptians have mineral acids? eg Hydrochloric and Hydrofluoric? These acids can soften the surface layer of stone making it easy to scrape away and leaving a new surface to be treated.
not that we know of
They did...it's called vinegar... Acetic acid....the vinegar we use for pickles etc is 4% ...at 100% it will soften rock , especially if the Rock is heated before application....this heating of the rock "done with simple surface bonfire is followed by application of the acetic acid and then the rock can be pounded with mallets and molded like play dough......this I believe is how Hannibal made the path over the mountains for his elephants.... Vinegar is a very powerful acid
One must ask,if all were for so called sacrificial bulls. Then why is there only on bull found? Perhaps the bull was placed much later after the scrolls which I assume where actually in the boxes had been stolen.
I find it very interesting that all the boxes were sealed when found. Why would someone go to the trouble of properly re-setting the lids after removing their contents? It makes no logical sense.
I wonder if the unfinished "stuck" box was going to be finished outside (like the others?), but was shifted inside because they didn't have time to finish it, and had to leave.
The boxes were all moved inside to be finished, as mentioned in the video.
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture that's what you're assuming because there's an unfinished one in the hallway. It's entirely possible they quickly brought this one in as impending doom struck upon them outside. When I do my woodworking outside I bring it in and store it in my garage when it starts to rain.
Working with that stone and we don’t find safety glasses????
But earth is the planet with all the material to leave it!
History amazes me!!
At 2:12: A listener and watcher comptemplating:
No tools whatsoever. So they used witchcraft, right?
How even put these things into place? How move them in the first place? Why making these artifacts at all? How were they made? What was the purpose? What was the reason?
Is there anybody today who can make such things? Which tools would be needed today?
I am just amazed. I have no answers, only questions.
Could a replica be produced today?
The leading US granite fabrication company, when asked by Chris Dunn to submit a quote to produce a duplicate box, stated that the only way they could do it would be by cutting/polishing 10 slabs and assembling them with fasteners... they declined to even consider carving a box out from a single block.
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture So to put it simple: No. Nobody can do it today. They were superior.
(8/PI) cm = 1 inch. Isn't it funny?
Probably the boxes used to store some radioactive batteries or something, the dimensions are perfect to fit the Ark of Covenant as it is described in the Bible to have similar dimensions. It is just too mind buggling to think that it was carved with primitive tools for the purpose of burial...there was some other advanced civilization before the Egyptians.
How do they know they were empty, and the places where they were kept for finishing, could have been a storage area.
We know they were empty because Auguste Mariette and a whole crew of archaeologists first dug out all the sand from the sarapeum, then used dynamite / steel prybars to open them, documented it, took photos, made drawings and took copious measurements of everything, and all of this data is available to study.
They were finished in place.
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture hmm, can we really trust people who are using such methods of opening this boxes? Why not to use some kind of block and rope
@cj. Well, it was 1852. Their sights may have been on treasure first, artifacts second.
Struggling with the scale of these photos because that box and lid certainly doesn't look 10 foot high
The boxes are huge. In one segment I am seen standing next to one to take feeler gauge measurements of the gap between box and lid, and my head does not reach the top of the box
4:00 the moment he is describing.
@@AncientEgyptArchitecture I know these boxes for years, but the moment you were standing next to them, suddenly made me realise they are enormous!
Also yes.. that unfinished box in the hallway.... -that makes things really puzzling.
They are built down into the floor, we are looking from the gallery which is about half way up if not more!
Why, and how the ancients constructed the inexplicable precision and incredible stonework, will remain a mystery...
Moving multi ton pieces into the cramped spaces it's been found in.🧐🤔
Yet, there They are....
I enjoy watching anything to do with these boxes. Amazing stuff. But 37 tons does not equal 83,000. pounds. #37 tons is 73,000 pounds. 24 tons does not equal 54,000 pounds. 24 tons equals equals 48,000 pounds. Even "metric tons" wouldn't be as many pounds as you stated. Still, 122,000. pounds is an enormous weight. How in the world could they have accomplished this feat?!
I expect they transported them in an unfinished state because whatever method of moving them they used was slow going and had a high chance of breakage....
If the temperature was 10 -20 minus celsius for a long period of time when they constructed the Serapeum. Then moving the boxes on a sheet of ice would be an easy way. Actually,, If you create a block of ice with cotton inside it, then you could place the box of ice on another sheet of ice (the floor) and place 100 tons on the box of ice with cotton inside it and then easily slide the box inside the tunnel without the box of ice cracking. Its a fact,, the question is IF the temperature was right, and IF it was, then they could easily have used this technique as I did as a child living in the north. Ice on a solid ground is extreamly strong and only few millimeters of it on the raod make trucks over 70 tons slide of the road every year. Many people think that the pyramids and such in Egypt was construckted some 20-35,000 years ago, IF so, then the temperature might have been right. Just saying.
Yeah, cause we totally see people putting 60t trucks in frozen lakes (no we do not) ... And yeah, ofc the whole world was in ICE when they made the pyramids (they claim it was greener, not ARCTIC)...
Have you ever stand on ICE? I think you only saw this 100t dragging crap in the video games... (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - the temple of ice)
I just had an funky idea: what if they finished the boxes underground so Luminescence dating wouldnt be possible 😱
see comment reply above.
Who tells us that they were found empty? Multiple expaditions opening multiple boxes?
The re-discovery of the sarapeum and subsequent vandalism performed there by Auguste Mariette and others, circa 1850, who used gun powder to blow open some of these great examples of lost ancient high technology, is well documented. Presuming they would find valuable contents inside, each was found empty; no Apis bulls, no treasure…nothing.
Pandora's boxes.
*No..* first the vaults were made and lids were build or moved with pulleys and wheel machines and then the structure. The site was dug up first of course to ensure a planning. Then it was covered. This is my theory.
Was the wheel even invented at this time, whatever that time was!
Most people can't tell you a single thing about their grandparent's grandparents. And that's less than a couple hundred years ago in their own family. People largely live in the present. Many have neither foresight nor luxury for preservation or archeology, and much is let go rather than preserved. This reinforces possibility of advanced past people. Maybe it just wasnt valued by past societies, but luckily egypt had good builders with strong materials. Let us not forget they were exactly as human as we are today.
Their technology was completely different from ours. I followed this mystery for years, and read many comments on the subject. From the power of thought or sound, or antigravity devises, resonant frequencies etc etc. The closest any modern human has come is probably Tesla, but the American deep state supressed his work. We don't know how old these things are . Maybe from the last 12,000 year cycle, maybe from a previous cycle. Some of us do know the next cycle is due anytime within the few decades
Will the survivors figure out how our technology worked?
How are we sure they were all empty? Didn't they blow one open?
see my reply to Willis Hampton below
robotic finishing plus unknown tech
Chemical polishing maybe, with a liquid derived from plants?
How did they get light down there back in the day, there are no sign of anything burning from oil or wax 🤔
good question...actually the latest theory is they had really clean burning/smokeless oil lamps....I dunno though, I'd hate to be trying to polish a granite box in a tunnel with just little oil lamps to work by.
Maybe built in the open and then buried?
The boxes were roughed-out in the open and moved underground for final shaping/polishing.
Highly polished mirrors.
@ Joshua Rich. No mirrors as we know them back then. A really shiny sheet of bronze maybe?
Its almost like there was a reason to quickly get another box in and was never finished...?
It's the unfinished / abandoned part that is the core of the mystery for me.
and only one bull was entombed, what happened?
there is a video somewhere that the bulls and yeast were put into the boxes, yeast eating the bull flesh created heat and pressure inside the box, the pressure on the box caused the crystals in the marble to glow, so they created glowing light inside the caves, and there also was a glow above the box
seems messy. Wouldn't that have left some traces of goo on the insides? They're as dry and clean now as a freshly minted coin.
(and Granite, not marble.)
However, it is true that stressed granite emits a charge, ( although it takes a very high degree of compression to create a charge great enough to cause airglow )
They did need light in those dark underground spaces though, and the absence of soot on walls and ceilings does make one wonder.
The weight is one thing but means nothing until 4:00 when you are standing under a lid.... That is MASSIVE.
there is something else going on (real advanced tech, or they were giants).
these "Egyptologists" these "scholars" sound dumber and dumber with every photo. The current Egyptians a squatters and they do not have the class or courage to admit it. Everyone knows they had zero to do with these structures which makes the whole charade even more embarrassing. And they maybe holding back progress for all of us. what a reputation and legacy Egypt.
A little harsh perhaps.
It just feels like they didnt have machines... but were somehow easily moving these... like crafting them wasnt enough... moving them seems like more of a mystery.... even if you just accept it, and you say, ok, they were made with bronze chisels .... How the actual hell did they move them... sticks and rollers..? Move one... a foot....
Indeed. Like the 'stuck box' in the corrridor that is only two feet wider than the box...I'd love to see a bunch of academics put their heads together and try to figure out how to (a) get it up off the floor (b) move it back out the entrance.
Froth flotation box.
Maybe the boxes were empty. Maybe they were not. With obvious efforts on the part of mainstream archeologists and academics over the years to suppress certain discoveries, who can say for sure?
The documentation recorded by Auguste Mariette is quite thorough; they were empty.
Until we invent a time machine , we will never know th truth , but everything points to not being egyptains , i beleive they found them , looked around seen no one else to claim them so they claimed them themselves as evidance with there feeble scratches on the side of some . made a mess of an amazing wonderment .
Yup, bizzare to see sharp right angles and glossy polish on boxes and also diorite and granite statues, just to have a chicken scratch heiroglyph sayin "i did it"
Guau!
I
Interesting that the floor is recovered? No way of telling what clues may be hidden. Drag marks. Evidence of rails laid. Who knows?
yes...IMO it would have been better ( and less expensive ) to install a railed walkway that hugged one wall so that the original floor features could be seen.
it hurts my brain to have to accept not ever knowing how/why/when and whoengineered these boxes and cells. same standsfor all the other mysteries held in egypt ..... would that arrogant and blank egyptologists accept that the pursuit of actual knowledge and truth outranked academic stature and dogma...
The similarity of being in the dark underground as Tauroctony and finding one bovine suggests that they were for the sacrificed Apis Bull during the Five Unlucky Days of New Years when we cross the nighttime Taurid Stream.
It's disturbing that almost everything that can help us put our history together is just missing........🤔
YOU FORGOT TO MEASURE ANY MAGNETIC FIELDS BURNED INTO THE GRANITE!!!! Ala Puma Punku, et al. Peruvian megalithics. The "tools" used for these stoneworks could not be destroyed, but only concealed under large sources of water. How to destroy something that can mold the hardest granite by manual manipulations? Ppl are just not looking hard enough!
Me, I think they were filled with gold.
These boxes are the work of practicing students getting ready to produce something for the king.
Students were taught in large groups and each box was probably assigned its own smaller group.
Everything about Megaliths, and Egypt Blows My Mind. I thought about this for fifty Pluss Years Never ever going to work it out.

I don't think it's possible dynamite could break the corner of the box open like that to access the interior, (the treasure hunting thieves said they were all empty except one, no reason to question that) way to many assumptions are made telling the narrative here, some of ignorance, others illogical. I don't believe any of the current understanding reasoning made.
Wow.
Gregory the dynamite is well documented and the archaeologist os yesteryear has been named.
Nothing about the history of Egypt and the high precision artefacts they are credited with creating makes sense. This looks more like a later, more primitive civilisation tagging their graffiti on extremely advanced constructions of a prior, unknown race and claiming it as their own.
The Maya, Aztec and Inca did this as well.
Dynamite, seriously- what’s wrong with people?
The same thing that's been wrong with them for centuries...naked greed.
Dynamite works well

Why don’t all you wishers smoke the same stuff they smoked and figure it out….
I don't think they were smokin so much as eating
Perhaps they originally contained some kind of exothermic technology - perhaps plutonium, then immersed underwater. An ancient aqueduct hot water system for a lost civilization?
They were floated in. Then the chamber was pumped dry.
Do you really believe a 65 ton granite box floats on water?
You can easily float 65 ton. You just need an extremely large float
