[@Don.Challenger]

Very true and just like all the good stone you will find in a quarry it just takes the effort to do the hard work and the skilled technique you were taught to uncover and cut it out - that is treasure. One good thing about patient hard physical labor it gives you abundant time to think. And if you are intelligent you keep the good ideas to test and use and the bad ideas remain as rubble for fill.

[@jameshutchins3396]

I was smiling the whole video. Loved it. Thank you sir. I spent 40 years working in power plants. Super huge heavy objects are moved all the time and as you have pointed out, it's not that complicated. Another great video. Thank you sir.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks James, Mike

[@cleanpiecington2319]

Well the problem isn’t moving large heavy objects… it the precision that they cut and sculptured some of the hardest rocks on earth. What Mike does here in these videos is bang a couple rocks together to show that you can remove material that way but that technique doesn’t translate to precision sculptures with perfect symmetry and rounded polished surfaces

[@mr.billthrower7392]

I will always remember this Mike, a few years back when I was questioning all this I asked you a simple question. "if I gave you a steady supply of cut stone and a steady workforce how long would it take you to build the Menkhaure pyramid ?". You replied and said the same time it took to build the Empire State building. I looked that up and it was 1 year 45 days. God bless ya Mike, you really made me see sense with all that stuff.

[@jaye1967]

I think one of the underlying thoughts behind the whole "lost technology" thing is that it's not done much today. I supposed it could be summarized as because we don't see it, we must not know how to do it. The reality is what you covered at the end, it's not done much these days because nobody wants to pay for it. Infact looking at the great pyramids of Giza, I'm guessing the cost of things really comes into play. The largest stones are on the bottom because of the amount of people it takes to move them. A 10 ton stone probably needs 10 times the people of a 1 ton stone. Then consider the fact that the three pyramids were built in the order of largest to smallest. The biggest pyramid was made with the closest, easiest to reach stone, with the shortest distance to move. A stone would require less resources, the food and beer for the workers as well as other things, and thus be less costly. Other resources like wood and pounding stones would be gathered from closer areas.

All due respect Mike, I like your videos and learned a lot about masonry from you, much appreciated. On the Egyptians, I think you are right they did the monolithic stonework with basic methods and lots of manpower. But the real wonderous thing about them is that they managed to succeed as a society and culture for thousands of years, and like you mentioned, they did produce some amazing works of art such as the nefertiti sculpture, king tuts sarcophagus and many other things. Like many ancient civilizations they lived closer to nature and the stars in the night sky were a part of life as the pyramids have astronomical significance.

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Yesno, I think the best way I would answer that is it would be wiser to wonder at who created the stars rather then the creation. If that makes sense because nothing comes from nothing, my opinion. Thanks Mike

I remember one channel claiming curved cutting marks in an egyptian stone were due to a massive mechanical cutting wheel.

Hey Mike, great vid. Really enjoyed it. Love your common sense approach.
Seeing as the majority of the blocks in the great pyramid are rough and of different sizes - except obviously the more precise outer courses - do you think that they would have split them from the bedrock rather than chiseling/sawing? Id imagine just splitting the stone would have sped up the whole construction tremendously. Thanks

Hi Rob, I hear you, Mike

[@157MattH]

After watching both part one and two of this video series, I believe there are still some issues that have not been addressed or have been more or less brushed off.
One issues not addressed would be the precision of the statues and vases. I watched the video you recommended for the vase, but what the modern mason created was nowhere near the precision of the old vases. And some of these statues were hundreds, if not 1000 tons+ so how they quarried these in a single piece and moved it, when according to egyptologist say they did not know of the wheel yet. And these quarry sites were hundreds of miles away. I still think we're are missing key information.
One issue i felt was brushed off was the "cant fit a human hair between the stones". There are plenty of examples of mortarless seams especially on the casing stones for the pyramids and many of the megagolithic stone walls in Peru.
Im not claiming aliens did this, but i still believe there were other technologies or at the very least, techniques that have been lost to us. I believe evidence for other technology would be what looks to be giant circular saw blade markings and there are many tube drill holes and cores in many of the igneous stones in Egypt.
I did like the polishing explanation and that does seem like a very plausible way the did it back then.
Here is a video that better explains the precision issue. I would like your opinion on it if you get around to watching it.

I do believe that we can move very large things on this Earth, ourselves, with manpower and physics. I do not agree that we had ancient aliens here with their technology either. But in the Bible there are parts that speak of Giants, human Giants, an example would be Genesis 6:4. Do you think thst they may have helped build some of the ancient megalithic structures? I do. I honestly believe a lot of the structures were around before the flood, and they are still there after the flood, because they are so huge. Its just food for thought. I just thought I would get your take because you are a Christian.

As most christians know the bible records many thousands of hebrew slaves alone in egypt. The rulers there did whaever they pleased.
If it pleased them to have a more impressive tomb than the guy next door, "no big deal" they got a few thousand slaves and oxen and traders for materials both near and far all under their whips and they "got it done". Any "politicians" that tried to oppose them they killed, except Moses. God showed through Moses how stubborn man can become and how little we care about others when we are rich and powerful.
Aliens are just ear tickling. Might makes right was and sadly will be reality until the Lord returns and then they will bow because of the only empty tomb that will matter.

So true Grover, we had all the same nonsense over here in England regarding Stonehenge . One theory had it that aliens built it and that it collected “energy” from the earth in some obscure way and stored it up and then the aliens would drop in from time to time to refuel their spaceships with this energy when they were making long haul trips across the galaxy . As Mike points out though , it is perfectly possible to move large rocks using low level technology , and with surprisingly few people . Modern re enacters proved this by moving full size concrete replicas of the Stonehenge. Megaliths . and as one of them said afterwards “It was no big deal”.

Wally Wallington you tube him

[@jhnnyboy100]

Ah i see you mentioned him in the video

[@GroberWeisenstein]

​@jhnnyboy100 what Wally does isn't lost ancient technology.

So those people saying that they cut stones with sound are lying?

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Emmanuel, I never seen anybody cut stone with sound, thanks Mike

[@emmanuelpil]

@@MikeHaduck The oficial channel took the video private, but someone posted a copy. czcams.com/video/Wcb4GTZGKuc/video.html

Yes

[@Eyes_Open]

The Ancient Architects channel no longer produces videos of unsupported claims. Evidence and rational analysis are now the priority.

How was San Fran built out in the 1800's ??? 🧐🤔🤷🏿‍♂

[@MikeHaduck]

Gold rush, thanks Mike

[@suep4530]

good video but we still know it was aliens LOL...just like so many other things. ;-)

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Sue, lol, Mike

[@vidard9863]

Is it common sense? No, it is a skill... Possibly even a talent, especially when using wood and natural fiber ropes.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Vidar, Mike

[@NathanKrausch-sb4rt]

One tv show shows it would be possible that the Egyptians also use kites to aid moving stones

[@NathanKrausch-sb4rt]

Archaeology found a wooden tool bird in Egypt and made a replica and test it in a wind tunnel it would fly

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Nathan, that does not sound reasonable to me, thanks mike

[@NathanKrausch-sb4rt]

If the Egyptian use a sail sled to move help moving stone with less workers pulling to the pyramid construction time would have been reduced sleds remains would have still be around but the sails would have been distroyed due to time

[@NathanKrausch-sb4rt]

Probably after the Bronze Age collapse the sail sled technology was lost

[@NathanKrausch-sb4rt]

Green Sahara period was the best period for mud brick buildings construction as the green Sahara was turn to desert Sahara the Egyptian started use stone to build and invented a way to move stones easy

I was a human granite router for 34 yrs

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks you have a lot to offer, Mike

[@jhnnyboy100]

@MikeHaduck It was a good video. Well done.. I'm from your area. I worked for Passeri in Dupont back in the day. Then Balent and then ultimately Disivinos in olyphant. I walked away. I process fire wood now. Stone work did my body well. I'm a young 57

[@MikeHaduck]

@jhnnyboy100 I remember the guys working at pasarri, thanks Mike

[@Traderjoe]

I think the main point that the people make regarding Egyptian technology that is mysterious is that archeologists say that the Egyptians used copper tools, and that copper is inadequate to shape granite and diorite, which are much harder than steel. Then there is the boxes in the Seraphim that are super precise and then these stone bowls that show score marks from being turned on a lathe. And these were found under the oldest pyramid, meaning they had this ability during the ancient dynasties. There are tube cores that have concentric cutting rings that were turned into the stone at hundreds of tons of pressure and at a regular rate. Now, I’m not saying aliens, but I do think that they had some kind of technology that we don’t see depicted in the artwork or in the ruins. It’s just rather curious. I know they had a lot of free time on their hands and they were dedicated, and I certainly don’t want to take anything from them. They deserve to be admired for what they did.

[@LesterBrunt]

You can cut granite with dorite pounders and flint chisels.

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Joe, the laziest guy always finds the easiest way, lol, Mike

[@tthomas184]

Do better research.
