1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:20,719 HiddenIncaTours.com. 2 00:00:20,719 --> 00:00:28,320 Expect the unexpected. 3 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:44,519 We're at the granite quarry at Aswan in Egypt. 4 00:00:44,519 --> 00:00:50,200 Most of the granite used by the ancient Egyptians is from this site. 5 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:57,920 And you just saw a demonstration of how conventional archaeology believes that the... 6 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,560 with that Dolarite or Diorite pounders. 7 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,880 You can see my effort was futile. 8 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:10,599 This is the ancient way that we know that the dynastic Egyptians extracted stone by 9 00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:15,200 putting wedges into these grooves after they'd cut them out. 10 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:21,719 Probably wooden wedges, they were bathed in water so the wood would expand. 11 00:01:21,719 --> 00:01:25,480 And then you would break off an uneven surface. 12 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:31,400 However, the unfinished obelisk, which would have weighed 1,200 tons had it been... 13 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,719 doesn't have a lot of those marks on it. 14 00:01:33,719 --> 00:01:38,880 It instead has what one would call scoop marks. 15 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,719 And that obviously is a different form of technology that was used. 16 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,200 Well here we are again at the Aswan quarry where we have the famous unfinished obelisk. 17 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,520 And that is different stories about the cracks that we see on the surface. 18 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,960 There's supposedly an attempt during dynastic times to cut this, but I think these marks 19 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,840 here are modern cuts. 20 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,640 But for sure that there were modern earthquakes that did this. 21 00:02:11,640 --> 00:02:13,680 This is not the reason they stopped this. 22 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,879 The crack, as you know because you went in there last year, is on the underside. 23 00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:21,960 So they're undercutting this with every intention of raising it and they find ther... 24 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:22,960 crack on the underside. 25 00:02:23,439 --> 00:02:27,040 So they know it will not go to residence, so they left it. 26 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:33,040 And as our Egyptologist and tour guide Mohammed Ibn Hima said, it appears that th... 27 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:34,719 have been pre-cataclysmic. 28 00:02:34,719 --> 00:02:38,000 That they were doing this work and the cataclysm could have stopped the work. 29 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,280 And we'll have definite proof of that when we go to the other obelisk in the back. 30 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:42,840 That it was not cracked. 31 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,719 There was no reason for them to leave it there. 32 00:02:44,719 --> 00:02:47,600 They should have finished it and it just stops immediately. 33 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,680 We believe that was the cataclysm that stopped the work here. 34 00:02:50,400 --> 00:03:01,960 So it's not only a question of trying to use stone balls to release this 1200 tonne... 35 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,680 from its mother stone, but the other question is how would you move it? 36 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:06,680 Exactly. 37 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:07,680 It's even major. 38 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,200 You'd have to lift it out and take it down. 39 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,120 So here's your sense of scale. 40 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:19,560 This is our Kemet School Group. 41 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:30,159 And this is the obelisk. 42 00:03:30,159 --> 00:03:34,520 And now I get the great opportunity of going down into the pit itself. 43 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:40,840 And that's where you'll see the evidence of the scooping device or whatever that did 44 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:41,840 this work. 45 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:47,120 Okay, here we go. 46 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,400 Here's the mega obelisk. 47 00:03:49,400 --> 00:04:05,360 And here is the entrance into it. 48 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:11,879 So these obelisks were most likely resonance devices, energetic devices, which each one 49 00:04:11,879 --> 00:04:16,120 was a specific size because it was tuned to a specific frequency. 50 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:21,519 The reason why this obelisk was abandoned before it was finished is because once they 51 00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:27,360 had dug down to this point, they found this massive crack in it and therefore it wasn't 52 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,160 going to be at the proportions that they wanted. 53 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,800 So they basically gave up on it. 54 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,240 It wouldn't go to resonance. 55 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,240 That's the key. 56 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,280 It would not go to resonance if there's a crack in it. 57 00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:37,280 Right. 58 00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:41,079 And here we have feeble attempts of later people trying to recycle the stone. 59 00:04:41,079 --> 00:04:42,439 They gave up after about two inches. 60 00:04:42,439 --> 00:04:44,000 I actually think this is a modern cut. 61 00:04:44,879 --> 00:04:47,040 As Mohammed said, in modern times they've been trying to cut this in half and they 62 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,600 gave up at this point. 63 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:49,600 Yeah. 64 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:58,519 So again, sense of scale, this is only about a quarter of the size of the unfinished...
