    In this video I continue to discuss the ancient city of Petra and what I uncovered on the subterranean level under the Treasury. The Treasury is the most iconic rock hewn structure in Petra. It is located at the final twist of the winding narrow gorge of the Siq. The paths walked by tourists today are called wadis, which are dried up floodways and river beds. It’s obvious that the Siq, the plaza in front of the Treasury and the outer Siq are covered with flood runoffs. This sediment layer must be substantial because it partially as well as completely covers up the doorways of some caves at the outer Siq. The original ground and path could be several meters lower. What might be buried underneath remains a mystery.
    When you see the Treasury, it appears on ground level. You can walk right up to it. But this is not always the case; since the Treasury and its plaza looked very different over 2,000 years ago. Originally the Treasury was much higher up and looked even more formidable. There actually is an entire hidden level submerged below centuries of sediments. What could be hiding there for all these years? Let’s take a look.

    There are many interesting things about Petra. First it was certainly the original Mecca! The location where Nefertiti came to become Queen after the escape of Akhenaten. Petra is on the old equator as is Giza. The flooding goes back to the flood of Ziusudra. The same tsunami wave that damaged the pyramids damaged Petra. The sediment layer was created suddenly.

    Thank you for sharing your work. Like you, I firmly believe we are living in just the latest cycle of human existence. With our 'origin' being pushed back hundreds of thousands of years, a salient question is - if we can achieve this level of civilization in only 12,000 years (assuming the lower dryad event was the beginning of this cycle of human existence) then what were we doing for the previous 290,000 years or so (at least, mainstream archaeology puts us at 300,000 years ... I think we might be much older)??

      And that is assuming that humans have always been the apex. Earth is 4.6 BIL years old, simple life forms began 3.7 BIL years ago. There could have been another advanced species (not necessarily humanoid-like) millions (or even billions) of years ago. This is called the Silurian Hypothesis. It is very interesting and imho very plausible.

  • @boomtao
    @boomtao Pƙed rokem +3

    Apart from the idea that there may be more levels underneath the sediment and the fact that the entrances would have been above flood levels, we should also take into consideration that the construction of the water systems may have been extremely well put together and could function for possibly centuries without maintenance before clogging up and malfunctioning. There may also have been long lasting dry spells. So, the structures may be even much older.

    A very detailed and descriptive presentation Tina. Well done.
    I also liked the 3D CAD model you made of the lower Treasury caves, which was very interesting. I’ve learned many interesting things about Petra from your videos.
    It’s obvious that flooding was a major problem for the original builders of the site, and they came up with an engineering solution that worked. But as you mentioned without maintenance the water system would fill up with sediment, and it did.
    Similarly the ancient Egyptian archaeological sites suffer from being buried by sand blown by desert winds and the odd earthquake.
    The excavation of sites like Petra and many other megalithic sites around the world is a huge task.
    One other point. When tourists visit ancient sites in Egypt, what they don’t realize is that most of the sites have been reconstructed in the modern era, like Stonehenge was. Check out the old pictures of the site being rebuilt online.
    Archaeologists are really just making their best guesses as how to reconstruct them.
    For example I saw a picture taken in the late 1800’s of the Temple of Horus on the Nile, south of Luxor, prior to its reconstruction.
    The site was a wreck, with its columns toppled over and the enclosure filled full of sand.
    Yet as I stood in it one would think that the temple was always in that functional condition, when for nearly two thousand years the site was a shambles and put back together less than a century ago.
    My point is that just because modern archaeologists fix up an ancient site for tourists, who knows what the structure really looked like in ancient times.

    When I saw the drawing of the treasury, with the four lower entrances and on the "second floor" basically a large gallery with the wide and tall open entrance, it made the wheels turn in my mind. Allow me to explain: In the book, The Guns of Navarone, the Germans carved out some giant rocks in the Aegean Sea and had gigantic cannons inside to basically make the area invasion proof. The guns couldn't be bombed from above and to try and get a shot at those cannons from the sea is placing your ship at great risk.
    With that said, the ancients built into solid rock to hide something, or hide from something. The gallery on the second floor likely contained one or more F-35 or Harrier type VTOL type craft. Considering the megalithic structures around the planet, we can only imagine the length and breadth of the civilization of the ancients.

      Well, at least that theory is *different.* Still, without evidence of anything that could be used offensively _or_ defensively here, I'm going to do that thing that is rare for humans, reserve judgment until we know more. There are _WAY_ too may unknowns here.
      Why are _all_ the carvings a depth of little practical use for living in? One doesn't even make one's homes for a large populace that opulent. My theory is that this was a huge market meeting place for the area, but as yet I have nothing but what _isn't_ there to support it: you couldn't _live_ here, even with water running through it.
      Unless there are hidden refrigerators, food storage is utterly lacking. However, like the Indus Valley & ancient Mesopotamia, this area likely had hanging gardens once upon a time as well. I still think though that this was an enormous market, not military, for defense or even living quarters.

    Fascinating as always! I've seen documentaries of GPR and laidar studies that attempted to map out the water channels and cisterns of the area, the Roman ruins and pools, the more ancient works like what were considered tombs with the treasury among them, but this is the first time I've heard mention of structures beneath what was apparently visible. The documentaries study how the structures were apparently built and don't bother to look deeper into the structural past. So much knowledge is prevented by governments wanting to preserve what they have and know and for the sake of tourism, but really fearing the truth and a more exciting evidence of our past. I've always wondered about the discoveries of so many older layers under cities like London or Paris, and those are only a few hundred years old. It's never really explained how that happens that street levels keep rising while dwellings remain at their lower levels. Hope I live to see the results of new studies, it's always such a tease with no real conclusion cause it all takes decades.

      Well said, Yvette. Thank you for sharing your insight. There must be much older layers under cities like London, Rome or Paris. Many renowned cities are built upon ancient sites and such sites could be established on even earlier towns. I read a paper stated that in some areas core drills need to be at least 10 m deep to potentially reach to sediment layers from 10,000 years ago. Sediments have buried a lot of evidence...

    Great video =) One thing that puzzles me though is the entrance path through the narrow gorge. To day the ground of the gorge is at same level as the area in front of the Treasury. If the front of the Treasury is burried under at least 8 meter of sediment, then the entrance path would have the same build up of sediment. The waterduct carved in to the side of the entrance path would then originally be 8 meter higher up on the cliff wall from the ground. Food for thought =)

    Tina, why are you so awesome? After chocolate lava cake and baby pandas, your CZcams channel just might be #3 on my list of BEST THINGS EVER.
    You're the kind of person who is so calm and luminous, that if you were a scented candle you'd be called "Morning Summer Rainbow" and it would smell like an angel's hug. Your immensely comforting presence is basically like sweatpants for my soul.
    And just when I thought I was the only person who appreciated giant decorative pencils (regularly seen in your earlier videos), BOOM, you gave me hope that I wasn't alone ;)
    I hope you don't feel I'm exaggerating anything here. I truly admire how methodically analytical you are, and above all how you have the courage to reach your own logic-based conclusions no matter how far it departs from the status quo.
    By the way, I feel very qualified to speak here since I'm experienced in a variety of historical field studies. And by that I mean I'm really good at collecting seashells on a beach.
    Keep up the amazing work. Sending lots of love and gratitude!
    PS, I recently watched your Chinese Pyramids video but what do you make of the Shaohao granite pyramid in China? It seems quite different from the others, especially since all-granite structures are practically unheard of in China's distant past.

      @CuriousBeingbyTina  Pƙed 2 lety +1

      Wow, thank you for your wonderful and funny comment! I'm flattered 😀I really appreciate your kind words and encouragement! It means a lot to me ❀
      As for the Shaohao pyramids, its construction started in the Northern Song dynasty (960-1125 AD) and has been renovated multiple times later on. The pyramid is 28.5 m/ 93.5' wide and 8.37 m/ 27.5' tall, made of stone blocks and mortar. There is no source on the stone type. ïŒĄ Chinese said in his blog that this pyramid was built with granite but the web page no longer exists. I think he was making an assumption which can't be used as a credible source. I haven't seen good close-up photos of the stone so I can't tell what kind of stone it might be. You are right, the shape of this pyramid is different from the earlier and bigger mounds from the Han dynasty. There are quite some granite caves in China which I think could be the work from a lost civilizations), such as the Guishan tomb (czcams.com/video/UutXy0H5ZYY/video.html) and Guyaju cave cluster (czcams.com/video/qwzgaBpXa28/video.html).
      Again, thank you for the cool comment. Enjoy your Sunday!

      @@CuriousBeingbyTina Thank you for your prompt and detailed response! Your video on Guishan absolutely blew my mind. You are just the coolest (insert thunderous high-fives). I also rewatched your video on Beidongshan, another absolutely astonishing site that I found through you. Incidentally, Beidongshan contains several additional similarities to Egypt that can be added to the discussion such as the distinct pair of large drill holes for the door hinges and the very, very subtle relief carving of squares (which I've also found in Peru, Turkey and in remote Aswan hillside quarries). Also, the roof pitch (via my photo analysis) in the Osirion chamber is 31° degrees while the roof pitch in Beidongshan is 31° to 31.5° depending on the photo/angle it was taken. Obviously proper in-person measurements need to be taken but this is quite the coincidence. Interestingly, the approximately 31-degree roof pitch is one of the more common types of residential roof pitch used today for precipitation management- it's called a 7/12 or 7:12 roof and has an angle of usually 30.26° degrees. It's clearly not a new idea! It possibly is also another clue that the Egyptians dealt with rain in remote antiquity.

    Have they done ground penetrating radar in the subterranean Treasury chambers? That could help establish whether there is an additional layer of structure beneath, and guide excavation.
    It also seems like they should attempt a series of core samples or radar to determine how deep the accumulated sediment in the wadi goes.

    • @CuriousBeingbyTina
      @CuriousBeingbyTina  Pƙed 2 lety +2

      I don't think they have done that in the lower caves under the Treasury. I agree it'll be really helpful if core samples can be extracted before the new excavation (might help preventing sample contamination). The sediment could be really deep.

      Is there going to be any new or ongoing excavation? Or wilk they continue to just tour it as is forever, not knowing whats beneath the sedement. Id install clear thick plexiglass floring over aluminum and steel frame ontop of large sections of ground level and then cunduct a live excavation beneath the sections, so that the tourists walking above and watch history being revielved below.
