Damascus steel is actually not high performance compared to modern steel; but it was very superior to the ferrous metals of the time. And of course very beautiful. The “wootz” ingots it was made from actually came INTO the middle east from south India and Sri Lanka.
Oh look someone who knows the truth! Patterned welded steel (aka damascus) has been around for several millennia. The katana is made from garbage iron and decent steel folded into something durable. There are no secrets in metallurgy and blacksmithing.
@@marcuschauvin7039 There are sometimes temporary secrets. Original Damascus steel for example, is similar to, but not identical to modern pattern welded steel. The reason for this, and the explanation of why new Damascus steel stopped being produced, was discovered recently. There were impurities in the original ore that resulted in a superior alloy. That ore was found in only one location and was depleted.

I started the last part about ancient 'flying machines', where it started out with this fantastical speculation that somehow the ancient Egyptians knew how to made something that flies. All I saw was a figure of some kind of insect. They were right into the scarab beetle as well.
I think the insect is a dragonfly. There are a number of Egyptian faience dragonflies and some in carvings of boating/nature scenes. One characteristic of a species in Egypt is a weird way of holding the body at a sticky-up angle when resting.
Hi. Good point, probably true. One thing's certain, none of these ancient peoples could fly otherwise they'd have traveled further than they did and left colonies of their way of life. A modern example is our scientific culture which traveled by real airplanes all around the world. Cheers, P.R.

Yes. The mechanism has been reproduced in many of its functions by working out its gear ratios - and hand filing the cogs and teeth, showing that the precision work is well within normal metalworking skills. And they have quite well narrowed down who created it (which city-state) and why.

@@Interdiction That could be argued. Early Japanese steel, such as that during the warring periods, was of exceptional quality, and is reminiscent of early 'Damascus Steel' which was made from ingots of Wootz Steel which found it's way to the weapon manufacturers in the Middle East, primarily what is now Syria (Damascus). Wootz steel was produced in southern areas of India, in areas such as Kerala. It has been suggested that the steel used to make to Wootz steel, which made it superior, was due to contamination, which at first made it a sought-after item, but when those same materials began to lose it's favourable features, wasn't 'lost', but simply fell into decline. Modern steels that are called Damascus use the layering, or twisting of rods, to try and obtain what made Wootz steel unique, in that it could hold it's sharp edge enabling it to cut cleanly and remain sharp, whilst simultaneously soft enough to prevent it snapping. The old Japanese steel was made by fold-welding their steel many times, yet I understand it was both the composition and application of the clay along the cutting edge, which changed the steel after quenching to give it it's sharpness, whilst as per Wootz steel, the bulk of the blade wasn't as hard, which would lead to shattering by being too brittle. SO whilst I present this point of view, it is to say that there are differences today, but in those earlier times both Japanese and Wootz items would both have been prized possessions.
It's our hubris that keeps us blind to how advanced our ancestors were. How many of our artifacts (both quantity because of planned obsolescence and type because of the perfect storm of conditions required to preserve) would survive for millennia? How many of them would be understandable without a written explanation? But if you believe that we're somehow superior because of "evolution," it would be a serious blow to the ego to think we're not any better and likely worse - after all, we're standing on the shoulders of those who came before, but they had to develop these things without that advantage.
Since you are talking about “scientists” and “experts”, you should know that a “theory” with no evidence to support it is the opposite of a theory. It is not even a hypothesis yet - it’s a conjecture.

I would say people back in the day had lots of spare time to think about where their next meal came from, and if they were not working or preparing for their next meal, they did not eat, and if they had a family to provide for, no one ate, so the whole day was filled with planting, tending, preparing, and caring for all food stuffs needed to prevent starvation, and depending on climate and seasonal conditions, times could get pretty hard. I would say there was in fact little time to doddle around for the average dweller. The fact that some of the technology that appears from ancient times is discovered to be advanced is a good indication that maybe it came from somewhere else.

We make a grave mistake to think the ancients were some how less intelligent than we are today. There is considerable evidence that they were far more intelligent than we are. Genetics proves that each generation develops more defects than the previous one. Also, while we have the advantage of accumulated knowledge, we are more dependent on the accumulation of knowledge than previous generations who had a greater diversity of skills and technologies we do not understand. Languages are becoming more simplified as time passes. People have a smaller vocabulary than just a few generations ago.
@PaulKinley54 I think you are missing to point. I do not lack knowledge of history. There have been technological advances even in my lifetime that would amaze previous generations. That is not the point. Genetically we degenerate by approximately 100 defects per generation. What previous generations achieved without our modern knowledge is phenomenal. There are many things in history that we cannot do today. We are dumber in our language skills, we rely on technology, and without the accumulated knowledge we would still be without electricity. Your first sentence is offensive. You have never met me, do not know me and you just showed your lack of knowledge in history and science.
Damascus is a crucible steel. It can be layered with iron or mono steel. The pattern welding process in the video is misleading. People with more knowledge than me call pattern welded and crucible steel Damascus but I don't agree.
BEING ABLE to predict astrological events (ECLIPSES- COMETS ETC) is an AMAZING tool to control VAST groups of primative or uneducated people with your seeming AMAZING powers as a leader or speaker! "TODAY THE SUN WILL STOP SHINING!" and it DOES! KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, it all depends how YOU use it!!
Eclipses are astronomical events, not astrological. They, along with some comets, the periodic ones, are predictable with mathematics or observation of recurrences. Yes, such observations/calculations were undoubtedly used to influence the common people - such as the Aubrey holes at Stonehenge to predict eclipses.
The only thing "baffling" is the depth of knowledge in some areas - and that information may have come from accidental discovery, not any scientific or mathematical process.
Not enough qualified people get to look at it. Scientists and physicists do not have all the answers and we need to turn to the skilled trades from time to time.
There were highly skilled and intelligent, people on this planet far longer than modern historians and archeologists want you to think. There were people here even before the ice age, and I am not talking about cave men either.
Any video that refers to "mystical properties" is absurdly melodramatic. Stick to the archeology and lose the bullshit. By the way, Greek Fire was composed of 40% asphalt, 10% sulfur, 50% saltpeter (approximately). All of these materials were readily available in the historical era when Greek Fire was in use. It is easy to duplicate. Just grind saltpeter into a very fine dust, add finely powdered sulfur, and then stir the mixture of powders into molten asphalt. Voilà!
at mark 13:52 the round stone carving is filled with many Chinese characters. majority is the Chinese character for month or referring to the moon. My history teacher specialized in Oriental cultures. He did mention the Chinese settled in Mexico and along the Central and South America. The cheek bone/jaw resemble to Chinese feature. Even the Chinese sea merchants sailed across Pacific Ocean from Philippine to trade. The native America Indians all migrated crossing the Bering strait.
Denisovan DNA (first located in Siberia) is shared by modern humans at ~1.4% The percentages are higher in people from higher elevations, Nepal, Bhutan, and so on, have a higher Denisovan DNA percentage, with some speculating it is this which allows those people to develop, and today maintain, their ability to withstand higher elevations, where there is less Oxygen in the atmosphere. Strangely, the DNA of peoples of Papua New Guinea and Australian show up to 4% Denisovan, which would indicate that Denisovan groups, or the Neanderthal sub-species, interbred with Denisovans (as occurred with H. sapiens), travelled vast spaces. African DNA has been found in Neantherthal DNA, but no Denisovan DNA has been found in Africa, suggesting that early species that left Africa inter-bred with Neanderthals, but that neither Neanderthals or their crossed offspring, travelled back into Africa. The DNS of peoples in Papua New Guinea and Australian is also the closest match to those early archaic Homo-subspecies in Africa, supporting the theory that those early out-of-Africa people migrated out, down through the subcontinent, and into the areas they now occupy, likely using land-bridges before ocean levels began to rise. Nearly all modern Homo sapiens still carry very percentages of Neanderthal DNA. The out-of-Africa model also fits in with the idea of Homo subspecies developing independently in localised areas, before breeding with other archaic humans. This also gives rise to the theory that some of these early human species travelled to what is now Taiwan, and further south to the Philippines, eventually becoming the indigenous populations of those places. Genetics, DNA distribution, give an interesting insight into early development of who we are now. As for Chinese characters, one author suggests that Chinese mariners discovered the northern coast of Australia circa early 1400's. Ask your history teacher to cover the migration, and interbreeding, of those early H. sub-species, as well as the currently supported migration routes which have been mapped out by genome tracing.

The Phaistos Disk reminds me of a game board...
Doesn't a "hypothesis" (best guess), precede a more elaborate "theory"?
What if this disc is nothing more than a child playing in clay around dads pottery shop😂
The Antitykythera mechanism was explained by Robert Scrutton , in his book , THE OTHER ATLANTIS ? The ancient fresians took it to Greece in about 1500 bc ?
Robert Who? And what are these "ancient fresians" again? What utter claptrap...
Both Cro-Magnon and Neanderthal, had larger brains than modern Homo sapiens…why assume these mysterious artifacts were invented by us?
We are a civilization with amnesia
The Egyptian "aircraft" were probably toys. The strange shape of the tail which is not the tail of a bird was fashioned so a child could fly the bird by holding on to the tail.
Reality is indeed stranger than fiction, youll not understand everything everytime either.
As soon as you read "Scientists can't explain..." or "...are amazed by...", you know BS is coming.
No sound😊
Baghdad battery was built to light the inside of the Great Pyramid there has been no carbon deposited on the walls say they use torches
Nonsense. By the way, the great pyramid was constructed to keep people out, not provide a method for later people to wander inside the passages.
Appreciate the effort. 👍👍👍👍👍
Hi. The Baghdad batteries were almost certainly used to electroplate cheap metal items with gold or silver. These were the days of alchemy, whereby a clever charlatan would convince some gullible financial backer that he'd accomplished turning silver into gold. Social climbers would electroplate their metal household items to "keep up appearances" Same as today. Cheers, P.R.
Aliens, there you go. Mystery solved
Wow people are dumb
Not even aliens ancient people had too much knowledge and wisdom
Funny to think people assume that genius level humans only exist in our time lol
No one assumes that
@@histguy101 so why aren't certain theories explored , not because our broken history can't accept the facts that historians got the lot wrong!!! Therefore our learned historians dismiss the obvious right in front of u, because there's no way ancient peoples could have done that!! So your assuming the people's of our past weren't intelligent enough , it's history that tells us there were only hunter gatherers in our ancient past !!
@@histguy101 and I gotta say u have THE most pretentious name I've ever seen anyone give a kid

Phaistos Disk is already translated to Tatar Turkic.
So what is it’s purpose? What does it say? Because it looks like an ancient game board
@@goldfish6414 You can ask that with all excavations, trying to get information about the past and the ancient times.

It's a Flux capacitor from a UFO.
We make a grave mistake to think the ancients were some how less intelligent than we are today. There is considerable evidence that they were far more intelligent than we are. Genetics proves that each generation develops more defects than the previous one. Also, while we have the advantage of accumulated knowledge, we are more dependent on the accumulation of knowledge than previous generations who had a greater diversity of skills and technologies we do not understand. Languages are becoming more simplified as time passes. People have a smaller vocabulary than just a few generations ago.
@PaulKinley54 I think you are missing to point. I do not lack knowledge of history. There have been technological advances even in my lifetime that would amaze previous generations. That is not the point. Genetically we degenerate by approximately 100 defects per generation. What previous generations achieved without our modern knowledge is phenomenal. There are many things in history that we cannot do today. We are dumber in our language skills, we rely on technology, and without the accumulated knowledge we would still be without electricity.
Your first sentence is offensive. You have never met me, do not know me and you just showed your lack of knowledge in history and science.
Damascus is a crucible steel. It can be layered with iron or mono steel. The pattern welding process in the video is misleading. People with more knowledge than me call pattern welded and crucible steel Damascus but I don't agree.

BEING ABLE to predict astrological events (ECLIPSES- COMETS ETC) is an AMAZING tool to control VAST groups of primative or uneducated people with your seeming AMAZING powers as a leader or speaker! "TODAY THE SUN WILL STOP SHINING!" and it DOES! KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, it all depends how YOU use it!!
Eclipses are astronomical events, not astrological. They, along with some comets, the periodic ones, are predictable with mathematics or observation of recurrences.
Yes, such observations/calculations were undoubtedly used to influence the common people - such as the Aubrey holes at Stonehenge to predict eclipses.
You think our ancestors were unintelligent but they have modern expert's baffled by science 🤔
The only thing "baffling" is the depth of knowledge in some areas - and that information may have come from accidental discovery, not any scientific or mathematical process.

Not enough qualified people get to look at it. Scientists and physicists do not have all the answers and we need to turn to the skilled trades from time to time.
Click Bait!!!
There were highly skilled and intelligent, people on this planet far longer than modern historians and archeologists want you to think. There were people here even before the ice age, and I am not talking about cave men either.
geo-glyphs were made from mathmatics. dimensions are converted...
math is the key to the universe.
It seems no stretch to presume the Baghdad Battery could (also) have been used for medical or entertainment purposes.
19:19 some say…
Any video that refers to "mystical properties" is absurdly melodramatic.
Stick to the archeology and lose the bullshit.
By the way, Greek Fire was composed of 40% asphalt, 10% sulfur, 50% saltpeter (approximately). All of these materials were readily available in the historical era when Greek Fire was in use. It is easy to duplicate. Just grind saltpeter into a very fine dust, add finely powdered sulfur, and then stir the mixture of powders into molten asphalt. Voilà!
We won't make that level of Knowledge!
Why the #$&@ didn't they show the planet with the Supposed Lights
at mark 13:52 the round stone carving is filled with many Chinese characters. majority is the Chinese character for month or referring to the moon. My history teacher specialized in Oriental cultures. He did mention the Chinese settled in Mexico and along the Central and South America. The cheek bone/jaw resemble to Chinese feature. Even the Chinese sea merchants sailed across Pacific Ocean from Philippine to trade. The native America Indians all migrated crossing the Bering strait.
Denisovan DNA (first located in Siberia) is shared by modern humans at ~1.4%
The percentages are higher in people from higher elevations, Nepal, Bhutan, and so on, have a higher Denisovan DNA percentage, with some speculating it is this which allows those people to develop, and today maintain, their ability to withstand higher elevations, where there is less Oxygen in the atmosphere.
Strangely, the DNA of peoples of Papua New Guinea and Australian show up to 4% Denisovan, which would indicate that Denisovan groups, or the Neanderthal sub-species, interbred with Denisovans (as occurred with H. sapiens), travelled vast spaces.
African DNA has been found in Neantherthal DNA, but no Denisovan DNA has been found in Africa, suggesting that early species that left Africa inter-bred with Neanderthals, but that neither Neanderthals or their crossed offspring, travelled back into Africa.
The DNS of peoples in Papua New Guinea and Australian is also the closest match to those early archaic Homo-subspecies in Africa, supporting the theory that those early out-of-Africa people migrated out, down through the subcontinent, and into the areas they now occupy, likely using land-bridges before ocean levels began to rise.
Nearly all modern Homo sapiens still carry very percentages of Neanderthal DNA.
The out-of-Africa model also fits in with the idea of Homo subspecies developing independently in localised areas, before breeding with other archaic humans.
This also gives rise to the theory that some of these early human species travelled to what is now Taiwan, and further south to the Philippines, eventually becoming the indigenous populations of those places.
Genetics, DNA distribution, give an interesting insight into early development of who we are now.
As for Chinese characters, one author suggests that Chinese mariners discovered the northern coast of Australia circa early 1400's.
Ask your history teacher to cover the migration, and interbreeding, of those early H. sub-species, as well as the currently supported migration routes which have been mapped out by genome tracing.

Clip is full of misinformation
When I was little I stole my dad's swiss army knife. He wouldn't let me hold it because he was afraid I would get cut and so I went and got it without him knowing it. The whole time I was sitting on the floor Indian style playing with it God was in my mind lecturing me.
huh?
Nice video. Like it.
Chinese "earthquake detector" never been proved as accurate device. Inside that pot, a rod will fall randomly to any direction when the earth is shaking. Fair enough in ancient China, people knew nothing about earthquake, so the inventer of this device (張衡 Zhang Heng )could say anything he wanted to say.
With respect, it seems a big call to say that ancient China knew nothing about earthquakes. I think seismologists would say otherwise.
@@hilbridanongoogle4465 Seismologists did say otherwise; a replica was made in Japan and it worked. Detected a 3.6 southwest of it's position in Osaka.
@@hilbridanongoogle4465 mainly, I want to say that "earthquake detector" doesn't work at all. As about how much ancient Chinese people know about earthquake, I must say, in 2008, Si Chuan (四川汶川大地震)，killed tens of thousands of people. However Chinese people still don't know much anout earthquake. And that "detector" did not detect anything at all.
@@carlloose3260 that rod in the middle of the pot can fall to any direction randomly. You can try to put a stick in middle of a table, shake the table, see where will it fall.
@@hilbridanongoogle4465 you might have noticed, as China aleays telling the world that China has "5000" years of "civilization history", how come in that 5000 years only one " earthquake detector URN" created/invented? Doesn't add up, does it?
If a "scientist" can't do it, try an engineer. You will have better luck because engineers deal in reality not hypotheses.
Yhe Baghdad battery has been convincingly debunked as a spell scroll hplder.

They weren't concerned with the truly important things like transsex and socilism
