Megalithic Enigmas Of Baalbek Lebanon: Part 3 Of 4: Inside Baalbek 1

So we're at the site of Baalbek itself and this is where we have the transition between manageable and these which are huge. Now this column is polished so smooth and so round and this curve transition between the curve and the flat is so amazing. It's highly unlikely that this could be done with hand tools because any sculptor no matter how good they are would tend to make a mistake of a dip or a bump and even after thousands of years there are no dips and bumps and this edge what's left of it is very sharp. That gives us very strong evidence of the possibility of ancient machining technology. And now we're going to get Stephen Maylor's opinion about the cyanide stone. Obviously from Aswan there are no granite quarries in all of Lebanon and here's a perfect smooth polish still on the stone just like we see it Aswan. And this is obviously from ancient Kemet. And it's obviously it would be very difficult if not impossible to do that by hand because your hand is feeling that that would be a perfect circle. Perfect radius to create arc radius so it has to be machined. Now the Greeks and the Romans were able to do very beautiful work as we can see here. You see that carving gorgeous. But in general they were only able to do that kind of work in either limestone or alabaster. When it comes to a material as hard as granite or cyanide which is what many of these columns are, the hardness of the stone because of the crystal content and other minerals is about 7 on what's called the Mohs scale with the greatest or hardest stone that we know of being diamond at 10. So it's highly unlikely that they were capable of doing these this fine yet perfectly smooth surfaces in the granite or cyanide. And the later cultures also were not able very well to work with that material so we're left with no choice but to look at the idea that an even older culture was here that had forms of technology not available to the Greeks the Romans or indeed the dynastic Egyptians. And it's like in Peru and Egypt we see obvious evidence of lost ancient high technology at work such as this column here again this is granite or cyanide and it is by feel at least a perfect circle in a very hard stone. So a site like this at Baalbek you really have to decode it. It is so huge and so complicated because of the different cultures involved in its construction and the fact that it's been ruined by later cultures which is typical almost anywhere you go in the world you find someone built something fantastic the next culture maybe nurtured it and added on and then barbarians of some kind come along and just like nuke most of the site and then use it as a quarry but if we look really carefully we're seeing definite megalithic high-tech lost ancient technology elements here.
