Evidence of Ancient High Technology - Liquid Polishing at the Serapeum of Saqqara - Chapter 4

Im in Giza right now and I have seen a statue in the museum polished so finely that you can see yourself in the stone, all around even on the very intricate parts. It’s standing in the corner somewhere and I am in disbelief that nobody seems the care a bit but everybody is flocking to a sandstone carving. Thank you so much for your work, you are a hero of mine, I think nobody covering all the anomalies as well as you. God bless

How in the hell am I just now hearing of this channel? It’s based around everything I’m interested in and watch on YouTube. Amazing work mate!!!

Excellent work! The fact that they hollowed out the cracks in the granit, pretty much confirm it was meant to be a functionnal device. These "boxes" are amazing masterpieces of ancient time, absolutely incredible. Thanks for sharing, it's really appreciated.

It’s like whatever liquid they used almost strengthened the stone as well. This idea of liquid polishing I find to be the most interesting out of everything and it is absolutely mind boggling that these things aren’t studied further. Makes you feel like they have these answers and don’t want to release them, as this was a way to run electricity for entire cities for free. Thanks for all your work, love your channel.

I was watching a talk by Brian Forester and he said he actually got inside one of these boxes and tried out different sounds and the ONLY sound that did something was the "ohm" sound. He said when he did that the box literally VIBRATED. Fascinating.

Hi Ben, i found yesterday your videos - and i love them! Something i have to add from my knowledge: Seen the liquid residues i suggest to look deeper into the topic "tadelakt and soaping". Tadelakt is a kind of limestoneish material where wetrooms, sinks, wells and bathrooms were built. I know it from morocco and i did it by myself (for a sink). The soaping (= rubbing olive soap in the stone, let it dry and polish then with another stone, 2 or 3 times) causes the final finish (it makes a mirror like smooth finish). It somehow changes the surface and maybe even build the crystal structure over time. It might be worth to investigate this further. This technology (soap and stone) is used for centuries as i know....

Great insights Ben!

You set out the facts then let it sink in,brilliantly done to reach as many interested people that want to think for themselves.i hated history lessons at school but now I can't get enough,especially after watching your programs,you're doing a brilliant job and deserve more recognition as someone that puts opinion in others hands and let's others carry the word forth. Keep it up Ben,people need educated,properly educated.

I do enjoy the multichannel and interview episodes but these more documentary style episodes are the best thing on the interweb in this subject by far.

They definitely had some kind of high revolution power tools, this is machinery work

I've been watching these videos for many years and I have to say you're wording and presentation is excellent Ben. Another great channel to start shifting people's minds from the nonsense were taught. Great channel

Yousef should have his own channel. He appears in many channels and source of important information

Hello Ben, great video! I've learned things from watching it. I never knew they had scooped out the cracked areas to prevent further cracking. That sounds logical. Modern day example would be when you get a crack on a vehicle's windshield from a road debris striking it. They recommend that a windshield repairer apply a glue adhesive to it as soon as possible before the crack grows longer and longer to a point that a windshield replacement is the only recourse. Cracks in materials will only become worse with time unless addressed right away. It also makes sense that they were more concerned about function over cosmetic appearance, even though they still polished it as best they could for aesthetic appeal and as a preservative. When dealing with a huge multi-ton stone block, it's better to salvage it with minor repairs if possible than having to scrap the entire project. The liquid drip remains you shown us does indicate using a liquid polishing technique. The very crude hieroglyphics does look like someone scratched it on later after finding it, rather than the master builders that created it. Egyptian Pharaohs were notorious for placing their cartouches and hieroglyphics on things created by someone else from a past time, and then claiming it as their own. It's like if I should stamp my name on the Washington Monument after an apocalypse, then some later discoverer upon seeing it therefore thinks I had built it. I'm glad there are intelligent people like you visiting and studying these amazing ancient sites and thinking out of the box to figure out how these things were actually constructed, instead of merely allowing the academics to spoon feed us whatever they want us to believe. I'm now a new subscriber. Thanks for the educational video and your other ones as well.

Good vid. I was lucky to get in the Serapeum in October 2017 with just me a guide and guard. Seeing the sarcophagi up close made the mystery even more amazing.

Hi Ben. There isn't enough gratitude in the world to express how thankful I am for your work. Please don't stop. I am so hooked I'm afraid that the grief would kill me. But, and there is always a but, the reasons given for the scooping of the material away from the structure just doesn't hit me as logical. If a crack can be scooped out of a surface it seems to me that the crack was finite to begin with and the scooping was unnecessary, at least for the purpose that has been put forward. Think about it. You see a crack and in order to improve the resilience of the material you scoop out the surrounding material until there is no longer evidence of a crack. What part of the scooping stopped the crack? I cannot think for a moment what part of the act of scooping out a crack stopped further cracking. If no scooping had been done, the crack would not have progressed any further because the crack was finite to begin with. When scooping did occure the only thing that was gained was that the terminus of the crack was discovered. Just sayin. Dave Lowa

Thanks again Ben, your content is brilliant. Keep it coming! In mechanical engineering manufacture, we build cast metal parts. We regularly have to do some post casting excavation work by removing casting defects in the same manner as in these boxes. We remove the crack or indication in its entirety in order to mitigate the possibility of propagation of the crack. What is interesting is, we do this for components that are subject to stress/pressure/VIBRATION! For parts that are decorative in nature or perform none of these functions I just listed, we don't bother excavating, because without any forces, we don't expect the cracks to propagate. To conclude, it seems to me that their was indeed a function for these boxes and they were clearly subject to forces that could propagate cracking.

Just found this channel. I’m addicted. Thank you for researching and presenting in such a professional manner!

Love Yusef and his dad! Great Egyptian egyptologists!

This video was so interesting, I’m 40 years old & just learned what Faceting is from these guys.😮

Wow, some alchemical polish that lasts for thousands of years! And the anti-cracking and facet research was awesome, further proving these boxes had a mysterious function. Nice work!
