As a native St. Louisan, I would recommend looking up the history of coal use here. A lot of the fogginess in the photos is due to coal dust from soft Illinois coal that was used here EVERYWHERE until about 1940 when it was banned. That's part of what ages the concrete, limestone and granite features on many of the buildings here. When City Hall was sandblasted to clean it, the people were stunned to see the pink limestone that surrounded the first floor. Also, when it comes to bricks, Dogtown was a HUGE brick manufacturing center. That's where the big clay pits and brick ovens were which is part of why the streets were paved with them. Some streets on the south side still are brick. As for the World's Fair, or the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, there are structures remaining from it. The Art Museum, the flight cage at the zoo, and, believe it or not, the quadrangle buildings of Washington University including Brookings Hall. Those were the executive offices. A lot of it was Plaster of Paris, and would not have survived. There's a lot here, yes. And a lot has been lost in the name of modernization.
I was brought up in St. Louis city near Delmar and Skinker where I lived in a complex of several apartment buildings that were heated by coal furnaces. My family lived right over the furnace on the first floor and I remember when the coal truck would deliver the coal down the Shute into the basement. This was during the forties and fifties. In the winter, Norman, the janitor would come every morning to shovel the coal into the furnaces to warm up our cold apartments and again in the evening to fuel the fires for the night. Perhaps it was hard coal because I do not remember any fogginess or film on the buildings. I assume it was merely soft coal that was banned because as I mentioned our buildings were definitely heated by coal through the fifties. So sad our personal experiences are lost in the shuffle of supposed progress, and History is so easily manipulated with lies and distortions by factions of greed and power. I appreciate the efforts of Lucius Aurelian and others who are now producing evidence to question our more recent past in relation to the many prominent structures and where they came from.

There is without a doubt a reoccurring theme throughout the entire US, during the period of 1870 until 1890, and this channel does an excellent job of displaying so!
It's the whole world my friend, I know there is a hell of a lot to cover, but look up any city in the world and put in 1900s photo and you get the same. US does have some of the most impressive buildings though for sure.
I live in the St. Louis area and it is amazing for old world exploration. I am planning on getting some footage of the Bellefontaine cemetery soon. It is filled with amazing old worldish monuments.
North of St Louis, in Pike County Missouri, is a Very large mound complex with a serpent mound earthwork right where the Illinois and Mississippi rivers meet. South of St Louis is an ancient granite mine and region with many megaliths and monoliths no one speaks of except the locals. Much to learn around here
I'm close to the limestone hills in Pike Co, MO. We refer to these hills and ridges as "bumps". Most look natural except for one that is just north of Elsberry in Lincoln, Co. It is almost perfectly round and from satellite imagery appears to have crops for a hunting food plot on top. I've been on top of a few of these bumps and there is very little soil, almost solid rock in most places
I think the truth is that the lost culture is our own. We built these things in the past and the reason nothing is being built like this anymore is because it’s not profitable to large corporations. We’re so used to corporations being greedy and selling us inferior products that construction techniques from 100 years ago seem more advanced
Exactly.... So many European artisans came here, new and old tech allowed for overcoming cannots with sure-we-can and did it with new advances in engineering and the labor force to build them with early machinery. This INFERRING of some secret past civilization was kept from us that really is not that long ago by antiquities eras many 1000s of years ago.... Is Conspiracy Theories some are prone to today to create for so many things. Europe was building grand buildings so why could not the US unless it was part of some past civilization covered up it seems even for the Chicago Columbian Exhibition World's Fair has its Conspiracy that those buildings were not just clad in chalk/plaster and still built of lot of wood with replicating mold designs to look as grand palaces etc. A few buildings housing antiquities got the better interior solid construction that could then have exteriors built of stone and they basically became museums after rebuilding aspects of them. We have photos of a fire during the fair with a grand building burning and must then got blackened after the fair by industrial smoke spewing during that Industrial Age and most burned then whether set or accident and removed. World's Fair and grand engineered bridges etc.... are not true ancient cultures as the Mounds and Pyramids etc that no accounts of their building exist, no architects accounts or drawings and photos.
I worked as a fireman for 5 years, and took more, than the required classes, during my continuing education, after passing the international citification exams, while I was employed. I can tell you, without a doubt, that brick and stone buildings, like the ones in the pictures, could not catch and burn in such a fashion. These structures, the brick and stone buildings, all burn, from the inside out, and they don't fall down, in a heap of rubble. Not the brick framed ones. They never catch fire, from a hot ember from another source. Brick and glass, are just not flammable. Thanks for sharing this. It gets frustrating, listening to people, for my whole life, talk about great fires in history, and never question the stupidity of the larger story. I am glad you are doing this kind of work. Great job here.
Since I am from Europe I am used to these buildings everywhere and yet I often wonder. It always seemed weird to me there was nothing like it in America. Why all over the planet constructions were build but not in America. This whole goldrush and people from Europe going over to America to find their fortune was weird! So I guess the skilled laborers that go over the ocean took their skills with them. They could have made those, and maybe the used what was there and just redo it. BUt still I have all question marks for years now. The whole America story is weird! I do know that over 100 years ago there were no safety rules, lots of people died constructing these buildings over here. The was only rich or poor. Almost nothing in between then people with a trade. My German family still have their 400 year old house in posession in a small medieval town. I am from a stone mason family, they build it themselves, I even have all my ancestors in the family bible. But this building is nowhere near the xxxl buildings that look they belong in Rome. The good news is that more and more people are questioning the whole thing. Thanx for the vid, love St. Louis.
@@DericEvansComedian well thats what I said, i know houses can be build in a grand way, over here all houses old and new are made of stone. We do not have wooden houses here, well for recreation purpopes. But the scale of what was build into the extreme I cannot imagine how. Take the hundred of thousands of churches alone, its insane. As if we had thousands of stone masons on hand for that, we didnt. Europe wasn't all that populated untill 150 years ago. And the churches always lie on certain points right.

In 1869 the US Government considered moving the US capitol to St. Louis, which was the 4th largest US city at the time. A resolution in the House failed by 20 votes.
Jacque Cousteau went to the bottom of Lake Tahoe and said the world is not ready to know. Perfectly preserved Chinese men chained together. (he told one other man before his death) The builders of the transcontinental railroad DID NOT BUILD IT! They unburied it and had to be silenced. Love this stuff.
I dated a lady from Tahoe. She claims there are hundreds of building and thousands of ships out jn about 200 ft of water. The local Coast Guard Station has been completely stocked with combat veterans with high security clearances. Why all the secrecy over a big volcanic lake? Because lots of stuff is in that lake…
I've been to Tahoe, and you can go wherever you want on the lake. The water is so clear you can see the bottom. Just rocks, dead trees, and fish down there. Complete nutjobs. You have never even been there but you know! Lol. I also live near st louis and it definitely was a fire. When fires get hot enough it will crack and crumble brick and stone. As stated above, put down the crack pipe.
The St. Louis city museum, the spaghetti factory, the union hotel, and the Fox theater are some of the most beautiful and bizarre buildings in St. Louis. Tons of history there and also this totally breathtaking architecture
Thank you for the Hearst Castle video again too.! There is something special also in St. Louis! It can be felt. Baltimore etc.Amazing mysteries out there. Thanks for your videos. All of you that work hard to research and share are priceless.! (and are talented in presenting such informative and entertaining videos) You compliment each other.
A few years ago I was volunteering at a dig within the Cahokia mounds complex. The archeologist I was working with told me they had recently found remains of a type very different from the native Americans that inhabited the area in the 1800’s. He said the remains had red hair and dna testing led them to think they were of a Northern European or Scandinavian origin. Also there were copper alloy weapons nearby and everything was dated to 100s of years before any Native American remains. He also told me they found evidence of a copper smelting facility that they had no explanation other than the native Americans didn’t build but rather found the complex and decided to settle there
Louisville and St. Louis are both named after kings of France, but not the same king. Louisville is named for Louis XIV. St. Louis is named for Louis IX, the only French King to be made a Catholic saint.
The brick work at the Union Station is spectacular and unlike anything I’ve ever seen. But what’s amazing is the rivet work underneath it. It’s so precise, it is perfect.
4:43. The official story is that the city was of 63,000 at that point, and that 430 buildings were destroyed. That's a kind of interesting ratio present right there, all the more so if we look at the actual view there. Apparently the fire claimed 3 lives, though a life was also lost as explosives WERE used to create fire-breaks. It contrasts with 4500 lives lost at more or less the same time due to cholera. Bizzarely, the main Wikipedia entry for St Louis makes no reference at all (of any kind) to the year 1849.
I honestly do not know but something doesn't add up about what we are told. The explanation one receives for why we do not build these kinds of buildings now is that we simply lack the will.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Yeah, architecture styles change, just like fashion styles. In his plans for success after WWII, Hitler was going to bring back that massive type of grand construction.
I think it's less of an, 'It's impossible,' and more of an, 'It seems really unfeasible.' We should have, ostensibly, better building techniques that are faster, smarter, and more efficient than they had. But we don't build stuff like that. What gives? Back then they didn't care about the cost like we do today? I doubt that. So, if they built a ton of buildings like this, was it easier for them to build these things? Or did they place a higher importance on buildings like this so they toughed it out? If so, why? Why go to all the trouble? What did they know that we don't? That's what this channel is about, I believe.
That building with the Parthenon on top is wild I have never seen it before… surprised it hasn’t been destroyed tbh… definitely this is what sphinx looked like before renovation
Here in Missouri farther from Louis I live on a street that still has old fancy Victorian houses but look nothing like the civil war era photos they have on display my grandma walked same streets as I do now when she was kid just bizarre unrecognizable times don’t add up.
America is the true old world. All of the grandiose beautiful architecture you see was built by giants. St. Louis is really Paris. Which is why it's my hometown.😎
25:52 those statues are back-to-back sphinxes, or maybe harpy's. The symbol on their chests, is a fleur de lis flower. also, i agree that the st. louis arch, is positioned too perfectly to Not be interconnected to the statues.
The steamer ironically named The White Cloud was the one that caught 19 other steamers on fire after its moorings burned through in 1849 and it really did cause all that damage. Yes that many buildings really burned down from this. There were piles of lumber and crate’s of black powder between the bank and the buildings and that’s what caught the buildings on fire because you had tinder kindling and fuel which are all needed to sustain fire. The man who saved the city from becoming a total loss did so by pouring black powder all through a building and he perished because he didn’t get out in time becoming the first fire fighter in the country to die by fire. It worked in stopping the fire for the same reason tnt is still used today to extinguish oil well fires. It takes the oxygen out of the surrounding area which is required to sustain fire.
If you know a basic amount about architecture eras, construction methods, and St. Louis history, all of this is easily explained. Almost like there are artistic movements that happen across nations. There was also just much more care about architecture and buildings looking pretty.
Great summary of St. Louis. Of course the lie needs the stake of violence. The truth holds up the violence. The dominate historiography is the historiography of the rulers. A great fairytale we should believe and that is only the peak of an iceberg. Greetings from Bavaria
"Damn it, Jimmy! If it walks like a castle, and talks like a castle, it's a frikkin' castle!" Another one I enjoyed a lot, obviously you really appreciate Saint Louis, and there is a lot to appreciate. Thank you again for your efforts. I'm really not sure which one of all these construction photo gems is the most SUSPEESHUS. But I think I'm having the danger foot gentleman dancing up high on the scaffolding and the huge-assest Corinthian column in the world vying for No.1. It's fascinating that there is always some genius in the comments to oh so wisely explain away (as opposed to actually explaining) all the holes and abnormalities and inconsistencies in the narrative. And they accuse you that you only see what you wanna see, not what is actually there. Pathetic again. Must be an easy life, always believing what you're told and explaining away anything that might stick out. Oh well. Never mind them. I wonder if we're gonna see in our lifetime the actual solution/answers to the question of origin of World Fairs, esp. S. Louis and Chicago. Paris, France was also pretty impressive. C'est magnifique. The main symptom of ignoring reality in this branch of research is when people see things consistently repeating throughout the world for centuries and they decide to explain away with some cock-and-bull story or just ignore it because at the end of the day, who's got the time? We've got real business to do. Dear God. Please keep it up, we can't get enough. I'm sure S. Louis will be high up on the list when it comes to revisiting in due course.
I find the more attempts at resistance to what is presented on videos a good litmus test. It shows me the information is raising questions because if it did not these defenders of the mainstream account would not come out to say anything. When certain people start acting like Dr. Zaius from "Planet of the Apes" it shows me it presented some information that challenges the "defenders of the faith" who also happen to be "ministers of science." ;)
David and then his son Solomon mined resources from all over the world contrary to what we are told ...the sailing ships were huge then not the wimpy little boats they show us
I suspect and am maybe the first to say so that the Lewis and Clark expedition was an exploration to find the existing old world sites so that the Ultra rich could set up shop and take possession
14:00 not a screw or a power tool used in the construction? What about the plans that bricklayers and stone masons all draw from in order to keep continuity with the rest of the structure? Not to mention the logistics of getting exotic materials. Oh and this was being repeated all over the country at roughly the same time? All the skilled workers required to achieve such beautiful craftsmanship when most people couldn't read or write? Nothing but dirt roads leading up to these monolithic structures? The hospital in my town resembles this structure and the courthouse in my town is just as epic is the next one. Oh and our Public Library is gorgeous as well I just don't see where all the labor came from. The hours on the most obscure details would have had to have cost a fortune then and now were they that much wealthy? Arches and domes made of brick
Everyone was skilled and everyone was wealthy in the past it seems. Others will just say it was all these very skilled people that all happened to end up in the right place at the right time ;)
Why are there so many cities and places named for Catholic saints when it was illegal to be Catholic in 11 of the 13 colonies? Were the Catholics or Orthodox there long before the pilgrims?
I realize that with this response I'm not exactly playing the game, but I think that the size and ornate nature of the older buildings that you mention are directly related to the size and importance of St. Louis for the US at the time they were constructed. The gateway to the west, the 4th or 5th most populated city in the country, depending upon the year, and the expectation that it would continue to be so at this point. The objective was to impress and show its arrival on the world's stage as a modern marvel, and it was a location where architects could come and demonstrate their skill. Old B/W photos could easily be developed to highlight the subject and make everything else faded (simply by covering those parts of the paper during development). The men with the column were guiding the cap into place as it was being lowered by a crane and not holding any of the associated weight. I feel like you're seeing what you =want= to see, not what's actually there.
If you're trying to impress you've arrived on the world stage why would you destroy the grandest, most massive buildings ie the exposition? If however, you're trying to impress terror, obedience, and control, well I'd say mass unexplainable destruction works perfectly. That's what I see anyway.
the construction of the substantial structures does not match the time & resources required to complete. Its not supposed to be a mystery but only to the lowest mind available; akin to the fakt that a planet of apes believes that 2 aircraft disguised as airplanes would be capable of being near, let alone demolishing 3 towers in plain sight along with all the other goofy trivia associated being available. It is not intended to be a question but more rubbing it in your face if you are stupid enough to think otherwise. Sometimes referred to as a "joke'

Hello. From St Louis. Nice video. The first Capitol was in St Charles on 3rd st and First Capitol Drive. St Louis is the only city that was never incorporated. Their is a Star fort off of the Mississippi River and on Grand Ave we have an ancient Roman column. I believe this was the hub city and very well the base camp for the people who took it over and occupied it.
@@juliehirsh1436 Vincennes, IN is just to the east on a line from St. Louis. There's also a Sugarloaf Mound there. I'm in Terre Haute, IN. I-70 runs directly through our small city to you folks. We have mounds galore of different sizes and varieties; almost none of them are recognized. (I"m pretty decent at distinguishing, I don't call every hill a mound. I've spent some time with the subject matter.) It's been estimated by those in the know here that up to 400+ mounds exist(ed) in this county and surrounding. Ft Harrison (William Henry Harrison) is a few miles from where I grew up. That fort sat on a mound. The area is now a golf course. I'm convinced that the course holds variations similar to a serpent mound.
The tunnels under St. Louis which some now support the MetroLink trains were used for storing beer for the major St Louis Breweries (A-B/Falstaff/Lemp Brewery) prior to refrigeration which A-B first brought to train cars to expand their market. When they dug up the new Busch Stadium (2oo6) they found donkey corpses that they left after dieing under ground in the tunnel construction. The tunnels I am told run under St. Louis over the whole city. This history needs more investigation.
Metrolink uses the tunnel that belonged to Cupples Station, which was roughly where Busch Stadium is now. The breweries use(d) natural caves that are cool year round for aging. The south side close to the river is riddled with caves. In fact, the south leg of the arch sits on one that was filled with concrete to support it.
I grew up in st Louis and didn't realize it til watching your rome of the West video that the whole city is filled with large grand buildings from downtown to the city limits. The houses all over the city are huge and we had quite a few millionaire rows including the neighborhood I grew up in the ville. All the houses were almost mansions even though they were all run down by the 90s.
The Mississpian culture which lived in the area of east STL had a huge settlement that flourished in the 800 to 1600 BC period and had up to 30000 people in the area. It is the only world heritage site in the USA and you can see about it in the really great museum near the largest ceremonial mound called Monks mound in Illinois.
Yes, at the end of the series. In this particular episode Pa just took it like a champ with the justification that he could live somewhere else, and it would be much worse.
The guys at the end found all of the usable bricks left over from the partially destroyed building that had just found. They will build new buildings with them.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 I asked Google the approximate number of bricks in st. Louis they wouldn't even give an estimate,,, if there are 16 million in Fort Jefferson in the tortuga Islands? Anheuser-Busch Factory has at least 50 million.
@@antonkemperjr4128 today's the largest brick Factory in the world produces approximately 90 million yr...there are more higher quality bricks underground in New Zealand than that alone.
Nice video. Wish we knew who really was here and how their history was highjacked. The official narrative is just a big lie and it's really crazy when you start to think about it
The grand water tower and Bissell water towers are so big and close because they had to control a lot more water. The area was filled with homes and factories that needed it where other parts of the city weren't as populated as that area was back then. The tower even had a trough for horses at the bottom. The people of st Louis were rich that's why all the buildings are so huge all of the poor people lived downtown in mill creek that's all been demolished. It's an easy explanation for things you're looking for but great videos
1:04 love these early ariel pictures of cities, suggests wide spread airship travel. Like...this too will be your first sight of the said city. If you have money that is lol
The stylization of those supposedly art deco sphinxes is amazing.copious amounts of out of place structure in that city that borders on ridiculousness when explanations of Providence are supplied....the mausoleum rooftop alignment with the arch..reminded me of the rooftop scene in the original Ghostbusters film...Here comes Gozer ..hahaha
No, fire wasn't the cause of the shattered stone, they used TNT to demolish the buildings to stop the fire from spreading (1 firefighter lost his life doing so) and rebuilt using bricks, since St. Louis has/had a lot of Clay mines.
@debidisser4499 many of these fires was before dynamite let alone tnt was invented. That's just another bs story that's been put out there to explain why these scenes look like warzone. Stone buildings would act more like a fire break than heaps of rubble would.
What in the world are you trying to imply? The history / architecture of STL is great, but are you trying to imply an ancient civilization built these buildings? And were they just left alone in the interim? Or what exactly? I'm just confused by the constant imPlicAtiOn you do instead of saying what you're alluding to.
if not a full blown believer, im at least very open to this idea, but i must say, im just not convinced this was not achievable with 1800's tech, knowledge and exploitation of the poor. I feel like youve spend so much time presenting evidence supporting your theory, and its compelling, but you also need to try to disprove your own theory. you should investigate the mining, steel, stone and glass making industry of the 1800's and see how plausible it is that they could produce these materials. But even if true, whats next? where does this lead? it feels like everyone is just going in circles now, producing content, but no one is getting any closer to the truth and secret.
You need, you should... you realize that the author doesn't owe you anything. What TRUTH you are looking to get closer to? That your civilization somehow became a barrack builders occupied by planned obsolescence? I am amazed at these "people" sitting on their arses in front of a computers, demanding... hey you, make me believe... I am not convinced yet... WHO CARES? Go get yourself another popsicle!
It's the 19th century we have a problem with 1800-1899 and how the Americas north and south had instant old world infrastructure and the land only had savage pagan red skins that were nomad campers.the 20th century was the propaganda century thats why every one is confused now.'
NO ONE IS GOING IN CIRCLES SO IF YOU ACTUALLY LISTEN TO THE VIDEO YOU'D KNOW THERE IS NO THEORY IN REGARDS TO PREVIOUS CIVILISATIONS AND THIS VIDEO OFFERS FURTHER PROOF!!
The narrative we are told as Canadians as for the construction of the Canadian parliament in Ottawa is that it was built by Irish workers along with the canal Rideau and many of them died because of the working conditions in this remote inhospitable place. We are told the railroad was mostly built using Chinese and Irish manpower in extremely dangerous conditions we could compare with slave work with very low wages and for the railroad to reach Vancouver was the condition for British Columbia to enter the Canadian Confederation in 1867. 🍁
They always say people just worked harder then and that's how they achieved all this. We are also told people worked like this because they had no choice. At the exact same time they tell us they needed children on the farms to work because of a labor shortage. I think the most telling aspect is people believe that conditions randomly improved for all workers in the early 20th century because magically, all these powerful individuals decided to become altruistic overnight. Canada is beautiful, both the land and the amazing buildings in distant locations. I need to get some explorations in there. Thanks for sharing!
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 The Unions did a lot to improve working conditions both in US and Canada.

Buildings in St. Louis burned because before the great fire there were many wood buildings. After the fire the city mandated that buildings be built primarily of brick and stone. St. Louis had many brick foundries since clay was readily available in the area. The streets were also largely paved in brick and are still there underneath the asphalt that now covers them.
Fire = dynamite Fouded = found Mounds = pyramids Art deco/ grecquo roman buildings = Tartarian Lets not forget the Tartarian flag being a griffin then we have russias flag which depicts the cossack trampling the griffin...
Great exploration! I may not be as hard working as those fellows "repaving the road", and maybe they were not the actual workers? But if I were going to repave that road, I'd start, I don't know one side or the other? Wouldn't just lay out bricks all willy-nilly like that. Good thing they weren't OCD like so many claim to be now days.
There's not any - this entire video is a great example of coming up with fantastical ideas to explain things you don't understand and can't be bothered to look into.
How many people in the 1800s had any knowledge of old world architecture. The facts don't add up. Nobody ever thought we would have access to information like we do.
That’s what I thought! I hope you touch on that topic at some point 😅 I think most of us would really like to hear your perspective about how things like Cymatics, resonance, and frequency tie into history. Even if it gets metaphysical
9:37 Look how much more the left side of the building is mudflooded compared to the right side.. It's so obvious the bottom of that building is not exposed
Probably was a fire since some of the buildings look untouched in the background, also it probably was fast low grade construction so once the wood and supports were gutted and burnt out of the building the brick walls just collapsed
I never accepted that sort of explanation. Brick and stone constructions do not use wood as load bearing support. However, if that is what you prefer to accept that is your prerogative.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Well I am sure the floor joist and sub floor of the upper floors are all made of wood probably covered in really flammable oils which would compromise lateral support. once burnt away.
Are we looking at city size (and bigger) submersible pumping systems? Were these lowered into the mud and flood lands to drain continents? It would explain so much of what we don't see below grade, steam engines, cysterns, plumbing, tunnels to ocean and so so much more below ground. This realm is so friggin weird.

As for the World's Fair, or the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, there are structures remaining from it. The Art Museum, the flight cage at the zoo, and, believe it or not, the quadrangle buildings of Washington University including Brookings Hall. Those were the executive offices.

There is without a doubt a reoccurring theme throughout the entire US, during the period of 1870 until 1890, and this channel does an excellent job of displaying so!
Id say it began in 1812
The timeline is very jumbled, intentionally so it seems.
It's the whole world my friend, I know there is a hell of a lot to cover, but look up any city in the world and put in 1900s photo and you get the same. US does have some of the most impressive buildings though for sure.

Hello neighbor! 😎
@@Galt4prez Howdy!
I've always wanted to tour both Bellefontaine and Calvary cemeteries. The historical significance there is astounding
North of St Louis, in Pike County Missouri, is a Very large mound complex with a serpent mound earthwork right where the Illinois and Mississippi rivers meet. South of St Louis is an ancient granite mine and region with many megaliths and monoliths no one speaks of except the locals. Much to learn around here
Hi, I live in Festus and am curious about the granite mine and other things that you mention. In what county is this located?
@@spreupbg-ls4847 - Washington, Iron and St Francois counties
Hi - I also live in the area, is there any more information you can give for someone interested in exploring these megaliths/monoliths?
@@gillyseuss8846 - look up Magically Mysterious Missouri
I'm close to the limestone hills in Pike Co, MO. We refer to these hills and ridges as "bumps". Most look natural except for one that is just north of Elsberry in Lincoln, Co. It is almost perfectly round and from satellite imagery appears to have crops for a hunting food plot on top. I've been on top of a few of these bumps and there is very little soil, almost solid rock in most places
I think the truth is that the lost culture is our own. We built these things in the past and the reason nothing is being built like this anymore is because it’s not profitable to large corporations. We’re so used to corporations being greedy and selling us inferior products that construction techniques from 100 years ago seem more advanced
Exactly.... So many European artisans came here, new and old tech allowed for overcoming cannots with sure-we-can and did it with new advances in engineering and the labor force to build them with early machinery. This INFERRING of some secret past civilization was kept from us that really is not that long ago by antiquities eras many 1000s of years ago.... Is Conspiracy Theories some are prone to today to create for so many things.
Europe was building grand buildings so why could not the US unless it was part of some past civilization covered up it seems even for the Chicago Columbian Exhibition World's Fair has its Conspiracy that those buildings were not just clad in chalk/plaster and still built of lot of wood with replicating mold designs to look as grand palaces etc. A few buildings housing antiquities got the better interior solid construction that could then have exteriors built of stone and they basically became museums after rebuilding aspects of them.
We have photos of a fire during the fair with a grand building burning and must then got blackened after the fair by industrial smoke spewing during that Industrial Age and most burned then whether set or accident and removed.
World's Fair and grand engineered bridges etc.... are not true ancient cultures as the Mounds and Pyramids etc that no accounts of their building exist, no architects accounts or drawings and photos.
Oddly enough, the 1890 U.S. Census was destroyed in a fire.
😳
Another random coincidence, I am sure.

I worked as a fireman for 5 years, and took more, than the required classes, during my continuing education, after passing the international citification exams, while I was employed. I can tell you, without a doubt, that brick and stone buildings, like the ones in the pictures, could not catch and burn in such a fashion. These structures, the brick and stone buildings, all burn, from the inside out, and they don't fall down, in a heap of rubble. Not the brick framed ones. They never catch fire, from a hot ember from another source. Brick and glass, are just not flammable. Thanks for sharing this. It gets frustrating, listening to people, for my whole life, talk about great fires in history, and never question the stupidity of the larger story. I am glad you are doing this kind of work. Great job here.
Since I am from Europe I am used to these buildings everywhere and yet I often wonder. It always seemed weird to me there was nothing like it in America. Why all over the planet constructions were build but not in America. This whole goldrush and people from Europe going over to America to find their fortune was weird! So I guess the skilled laborers that go over the ocean took their skills with them. They could have made those, and maybe the used what was there and just redo it. BUt still I have all question marks for years now. The whole America story is weird! I do know that over 100 years ago there were no safety rules, lots of people died constructing these buildings over here. The was only rich or poor. Almost nothing in between then people with a trade. My German family still have their 400 year old house in posession in a small medieval town. I am from a stone mason family, they build it themselves, I even have all my ancestors in the family bible. But this building is nowhere near the xxxl buildings that look they belong in Rome. The good news is that more and more people are questioning the whole thing. Thanx for the vid, love St. Louis.
I don't think that's the case either.......... they are just as old too
@@DericEvansComedian well thats what I said, i know houses can be build in a grand way, over here all houses old and new are made of stone. We do not have wooden houses here, well for recreation purpopes. But the scale of what was build into the extreme I cannot imagine how. Take the hundred of thousands of churches alone, its insane. As if we had thousands of stone masons on hand for that, we didnt. Europe wasn't all that populated untill 150 years ago. And the churches always lie on certain points right.

I dated a lady from Tahoe. She claims there are hundreds of building and thousands of ships out jn about 200 ft of water. The local Coast Guard Station has been completely stocked with combat veterans with high security clearances. Why all the secrecy over a big volcanic lake? Because lots of stuff is in that lake…
The water is so clear it would be amazing to dive and view it. I wonder if that's allowed?
I've been to Tahoe, and you can go wherever you want on the lake. The water is so clear you can see the bottom. Just rocks, dead trees, and fish down there. Complete nutjobs. You have never even been there but you know! Lol. I also live near st louis and it definitely was a fire. When fires get hot enough it will crack and crumble brick and stone. As stated above, put down the crack pipe.

A few years ago I was volunteering at a dig within the Cahokia mounds complex. The archeologist I was working with told me they had recently found remains of a type very different from the native Americans that inhabited the area in the 1800’s. He said the remains had red hair and dna testing led them to think they were of a Northern European or Scandinavian origin. Also there were copper alloy weapons nearby and everything was dated to 100s of years before any Native American remains. He also told me they found evidence of a copper smelting facility that they had no explanation other than the native Americans didn’t build but rather found the complex and decided to settle there
I've been waiting for this video, I went to Saint Louis for a short trip and stayed in the Magnolia Hotel, astounding sights
Louisville and St. Louis are both named after kings of France, but not the same king. Louisville is named for Louis XIV. St. Louis is named for Louis IX, the only French King to be made a Catholic saint.
The brick work at the Union Station is spectacular and unlike anything I’ve ever seen. But what’s amazing is the rivet work underneath it. It’s so precise, it is perfect.
hell yea, Cahokia Mounds is just down the street from me, the Mississippian culture was so cool.
shouldn't there be a very deep hole somewhere nearby? all that soil had to come from somewhere. why is there, that i'm aware of, any such place?
Amazing !
4:43. The official story is that the city was of 63,000 at that point, and that 430 buildings were destroyed. That's a kind of interesting ratio present right there, all the more so if we look at the actual view there. Apparently the fire claimed 3 lives, though a life was also lost as explosives WERE used to create fire-breaks. It contrasts with 4500 lives lost at more or less the same time due to cholera. Bizzarely, the main Wikipedia entry for St Louis makes no reference at all (of any kind) to the year 1849.
Interesting
Wait...are you saying we didn't have the technology to build these buildings in the late 19th century?
I honestly do not know but something doesn't add up about what we are told. The explanation one receives for why we do not build these kinds of buildings now is that we simply lack the will.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Yeah, architecture styles change, just like fashion styles.
In his plans for success after WWII, Hitler was going to bring back that massive type of grand construction.
We had the this tech. Now they profit from it.
I think it's less of an, 'It's impossible,' and more of an, 'It seems really unfeasible.' We should have, ostensibly, better building techniques that are faster, smarter, and more efficient than they had. But we don't build stuff like that. What gives? Back then they didn't care about the cost like we do today? I doubt that.
So, if they built a ton of buildings like this, was it easier for them to build these things? Or did they place a higher importance on buildings like this so they toughed it out? If so, why? Why go to all the trouble? What did they know that we don't?
That's what this channel is about, I believe.

The steamer ironically named The White Cloud was the one that caught 19 other steamers on fire after its moorings burned through in 1849 and it really did cause all that damage. Yes that many buildings really burned down from this. There were piles of lumber and crate’s of black powder between the bank and the buildings and that’s what caught the buildings on fire because you had tinder kindling and fuel which are all needed to sustain fire. The man who saved the city from becoming a total loss did so by pouring black powder all through a building and he perished because he didn’t get out in time becoming the first fire fighter in the country to die by fire. It worked in stopping the fire for the same reason tnt is still used today to extinguish oil well fires. It takes the oxygen out of the surrounding area which is required to sustain fire.
It is a fact, it really happened.

I'm really not sure which one of all these construction photo gems is the most SUSPEESHUS. But I think I'm having the danger foot gentleman dancing up high on the scaffolding and the huge-assest Corinthian column in the world vying for No.1. It's fascinating that there is always some genius in the comments to oh so wisely explain away (as opposed to actually explaining) all the holes and abnormalities and inconsistencies in the narrative. And they accuse you that you only see what you wanna see, not what is actually there. Pathetic again. Must be an easy life, always believing what you're told and explaining away anything that might stick out. Oh well. Never mind them.
I wonder if we're gonna see in our lifetime the actual solution/answers to the question of origin of World Fairs, esp. S. Louis and Chicago. Paris, France was also pretty impressive. C'est magnifique. The main symptom of ignoring reality in this branch of research is when people see things consistently repeating throughout the world for centuries and they decide to explain away with some cock-and-bull story or just ignore it because at the end of the day, who's got the time? We've got real business to do. Dear God.
Please keep it up, we can't get enough. I'm sure S. Louis will be high up on the list when it comes to revisiting in due course.
I find the more attempts at resistance to what is presented on videos a good litmus test. It shows me the information is raising questions because if it did not these defenders of the mainstream account would not come out to say anything.

14:00 not a screw or a power tool used in the construction? What about the plans that bricklayers and stone masons all draw from in order to keep continuity with the rest of the structure? Not to mention the logistics of getting exotic materials. Oh and this was being repeated all over the country at roughly the same time? All the skilled workers required to achieve such beautiful craftsmanship when most people couldn't read or write? Nothing but dirt roads leading up to these monolithic structures? The hospital in my town resembles this structure and the courthouse in my town is just as epic is the next one. Oh and our Public Library is gorgeous as well I just don't see where all the labor came from. The hours on the most obscure details would have had to have cost a fortune then and now were they that much wealthy? Arches and domes made of brick
Everyone was skilled and everyone was wealthy in the past it seems. Others will just say it was all these very skilled people that all happened to end up in the right place at the right time ;)
Why are there so many cities and places named for Catholic saints when it was illegal to be Catholic in 11 of the 13 colonies? Were the Catholics or Orthodox there long before the pilgrims?
I realize that with this response I'm not exactly playing the game, but I think that the size and ornate nature of the older buildings that you mention are directly related to the size and importance of St. Louis for the US at the time they were constructed. The gateway to the west, the 4th or 5th most populated city in the country, depending upon the year, and the expectation that it would continue to be so at this point. The objective was to impress and show its arrival on the world's stage as a modern marvel, and it was a location where architects could come and demonstrate their skill. Old B/W photos could easily be developed to highlight the subject and make everything else faded (simply by covering those parts of the paper during development). The men with the column were guiding the cap into place as it was being lowered by a crane and not holding any of the associated weight. I feel like you're seeing what you =want= to see, not what's actually there.
If you're trying to impress you've arrived on the world stage why would you destroy the grandest, most massive buildings ie the exposition? If however, you're trying to impress terror, obedience, and control, well I'd say mass unexplainable destruction works perfectly. That's what I see anyway.
@@hawaiiguykailua6928cuz those world fair buildings were just temporary and built with plaster and cheap materials 😅
the construction of the substantial structures does not match the time & resources required to complete.

The first Capitol was in St Charles on 3rd st and First Capitol Drive.
St Louis is the only city that was never incorporated.

It was named the Mound City and still contains Sugarloaf it's laststanding mound which is now protected.
@@juliehirsh1436 Vincennes, IN is just to the east on a line from St. Louis. There's also a Sugarloaf Mound there. I'm in Terre Haute, IN. I-70 runs directly through our small city to you folks. We have mounds galore of different sizes and varieties; almost none of them are recognized. (I"m pretty decent at distinguishing, I don't call every hill a mound. I've spent some time with the subject matter.) It's been estimated by those in the know here that up to 400+ mounds exist(ed) in this county and surrounding. Ft Harrison (William Henry Harrison) is a few miles from where I grew up. That fort sat on a mound. The area is now a golf course.

The tunnels under St. Louis which some now support the MetroLink trains were used for storing beer for the major St Louis Breweries (A-B/Falstaff/Lemp Brewery) prior to refrigeration which A-B first brought to train cars to expand their market. When they dug up the new Busch Stadium (2oo6) they found donkey corpses that they left after dieing under ground in the tunnel construction. The tunnels I am told run under St. Louis over the whole city. This history needs more investigation.
Metrolink uses the tunnel that belonged to Cupples Station, which was roughly where Busch Stadium is now. The breweries use(d) natural caves that are cool year round for aging. The south side close to the river is riddled with caves. In fact, the south leg of the arch sits on one that was filled with concrete to support it.

The grand water tower and Bissell water towers are so big and close because they had to control a lot more water. The area was filled with homes and factories that needed it where other parts of the city weren't as populated as that area was back then. The tower even had a trough for horses at the bottom.

I feel like youve spend so much time presenting evidence supporting your theory, and its compelling, but you also need to try to disprove your own theory. you should investigate the mining, steel, stone and glass making industry of the 1800's and see how plausible it is that they could produce these materials.

Sumner High School, not Summer. just FYI.
The narrative we are told as Canadians as for the construction of the Canadian parliament in Ottawa is that it was built by Irish workers along with the canal Rideau and many of them died because of the working conditions in this remote inhospitable place. We are told the railroad was mostly built using Chinese and Irish manpower in extremely dangerous conditions we could compare with slave work with very low wages and for the railroad to reach Vancouver was the condition for British Columbia to enter the Canadian Confederation in 1867. 🍁
They always say people just worked harder then and that's how they achieved all this. We are also told people worked like this because they had no choice. At the exact same time they tell us they needed children on the farms to work because of a labor shortage. I think the most telling aspect is people believe that conditions randomly improved for all workers in the early 20th century because magically, all these powerful individuals decided to become altruistic overnight.
Canada is beautiful, both the land and the amazing buildings in distant locations. I need to get some explorations in there. Thanks for sharing!
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 The Unions did a lot to improve working conditions both in US and Canada. My dad was born in1917 and deceased in April 2000, He used to say that although they made progress in many fields as for technology and progress, humans didn't change, they remain the same... I at 70 years old still miss the time when they still used horses for bread and milk delivery. 🐎
The world seemed more genuine in the past. I used to think that was just a perception. The more time passes it seems to be a hard reality.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 The world keeps changing yet I wonder how it could change that fast. I was brought up in the country in old farmhouses that no longer exist and still live in an old house. Your research is 👍
@@ordyhorizonrivieredunord712 Thank you very much and I wonder the same thing.
25:00 All my life I've wondered what's really inside at the top ? An alter ? I'm in Australia and this I always think of out of all those worldy sites we have 😊
The big wather tower is on a place were there was a starfort on old maps ca 1790
You're obviously trying hard to implicate some "Massive Global Conspiracy", but not sure which wack-o-doodle theory you're referencing
Strange because the whole reason fireplaces are made of brick and or stone because it doesn't burn 3:59
St.Louis also has extensive caves under it and yes there are many beautiful buildings in St.Louis many old world “water towers “
Looked at those on the follow up on-site exploration.
Buildings in St. Louis burned because before the great fire there were many wood buildings. After the fire the city mandated that buildings be built primarily of brick and stone. St. Louis had many brick foundries since clay was readily available in the area. The streets were also largely paved in brick and are still there underneath the asphalt that now covers them.
How do you know this to be true? Why don't provide some citations?
Fire = dynamite
Fouded = found
Mounds = pyramids
Art deco/ grecquo roman buildings = Tartarian
Lets not forget the Tartarian flag being a griffin then we have russias flag which depicts the cossack trampling the griffin...
The Legend of the Great PIASA looks just like a Griffin
@@c.gee-bey1633 i never heard of piasa, I will look into it 🤙
Great exploration! I may not be as hard working as those fellows "repaving the road", and maybe they were not the actual workers? But if I were going to repave that road, I'd start, I don't know one side or the other? Wouldn't just lay out bricks all willy-nilly like that. Good thing they weren't OCD like so many claim to be now days.
Hehehe good point.
There was tht huge military personnel records fire in St. Louis.
That doesn't raise any flags at all does it? Especially when one looks at what records were claimed lost in that "fire".
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Exactly 💯
New to this channel… you allude to unknown parties building these structures. Who do you think built this stuff? What’s your evidence?
There's not any - this entire video is a great example of coming up with fantastical ideas to explain things you don't understand and can't be bothered to look into.
How many people in the 1800s had any knowledge of old world architecture. The facts don't add up. Nobody ever thought we would have access to information like we do.
A lot of buildings from the worlds fair are still standing , they reside in Forest Park .
Which buildings?
Are you talking about Cymatics around 7:00?
I certainly am! :)
That’s what I thought! I hope you touch on that topic at some point 😅 I think most of us would really like to hear your perspective about how things like Cymatics, resonance, and frequency tie into history. Even if it gets metaphysical
That is coming when I look into comparing the great structures of Europe and the United States.
9:37 Look how much more the left side of the building is mudflooded compared to the right side.. It's so obvious the bottom of that building is not exposed
Another one of those buildings that supposedly had many incarnations at the exact same location too.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Probably built right on top of a powerful ley line
The buildings for the "World's Fair" were only temporary...AFTER they maliciously tore them down!!
cymatics, feels like a pop quiz lol
Not really, it is useful to remember because it comes up a lot!
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 I was just playing. It’s a huge deal obviously thanks for all your work man. Please keep it up. Peace.
It is all good and great to hear from you too! :)
Probably was a fire since some of the buildings look untouched in the background, also it probably was fast low grade construction so once the wood and supports were gutted and burnt out of the building the brick walls just collapsed
I never accepted that sort of explanation. Brick and stone constructions do not use wood as load bearing support. However, if that is what you prefer to accept that is your prerogative.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Well I am sure the floor joist and sub floor of the upper floors are all made of wood probably covered in really flammable oils which would compromise lateral support. once burnt away.
Where is the soot?? The black markings on the buildings?
A telltale sign of the so-called industrial revolution missing? How can that be? It is a very good question.
Are we looking at city size (and bigger) submersible pumping systems? Were these lowered into the mud and flood lands to drain continents? It would explain so much of what we don't see below grade, steam engines, cysterns, plumbing, tunnels to ocean and so so much more below ground. This realm is so friggin weird.
Thank you Jamie Griffin during live stream. Could never remember "cymatics,:" and thank you to Lucius for creating a ckass environment that switched me on.
spared no expense
What is with all the " Who really did this ?" and " This is what we are told" narrative makes it sound like a bad episode of Ancient Aliens. All that is missing is him saying " According to Ancient astronaut theorists. This guy is a bad joke masquerading as history
It seems you miss the old format of the History Channel. :)
Cymatics
Excellent!
I stood next to those base stones. Very old. Not sure how much though. Did you mention the Star fort right at the riverfront? Another tuber does forts in maps and did STL showing me stuff I’ve never seen despite crawling all over those lands.
I haven't reached star forts yet, that is another series of explorations. I will get there.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 You might look at the Global Masonic Temple in Guthrie Oklahoma. It's still there and very out of place. If you do, think about the time frame and who was in Oklahoma or expected to come to Oklahoma. The land rush, when oil became a thing, and ask, why Guthrie of all places.
@@sgtrock68 I will give it a closer look, thank you for sharing!
I all ways wondered why such big clocks …..? Lol
