πŸ‘€πŸ’­ This is the Unfinished Obelisk of Aswan, Egypt stands 137 feet (42m) tall and weighs 1200 tons lies in the ancient quarries near #Aswan, #Egypt. This gigantic piece of rock was intended to be erected as an #obelisk, but for some reason it was left unfinished.
#Archaeology
πŸ‘€πŸ’­ The ⬜️White box shows a crack on the obelisk, πŸ”΅Blue shows the quarrying process around the obelisk, & the πŸŸ₯Red/Pink indicates a sculpting technique before the prime finish. I theorize this #obelisk may have been a failed attempt by a #civilization thereafter. #Archaeology
πŸ‘€πŸ’­ The πŸ”΅Blue box shows the same technique pattern used to sand down & sculpt the #obelisk, while the βšͺ️White box highlights a slightly different technique than the blue, you just have to close closely. The β†ͺ️arrow indicates the difference in finished from the near by surface.

πŸ‘€πŸ’­ Notice the indications of multiple construction types & #civilizations can be found here at #Elephantinelsland. There is also strange evidence of # Mayan people visiting here as seen in the headdress of reeds, not typical to #Egyptian glyphs or styles. #Archaeology #Egypt
πŸ‘€πŸ’­ Part 2: Without a doubt this is some of the most incredible granite works in the #ancient #megalithic world. This location at #aswan also has a 1,200 ton unfinished #obelisk, still attached to the granite bedrock.

πŸ‘€πŸ’­ This video provides a visual perspective on how difficult it is to move multi-ton blocks of granite, & how difficult moving #megalithic stones with modern technology, let alone many thousands of years ago. The key is alternative & #ancient methodologies. #Archaeology
πŸ‘€πŸ’­ I've always had several issues with the accepted hypothesis of how the #Pyramids of #Giza were built. As a Construction professional specializing in the area of logistical coordination & application of construction methodologies I feel compelled to speak my mind. #Archeology
πŸ‘€πŸ’­ These calculations assume 500 stones a day. This is a rough estimate, assuming a 8-hour day, 290 days a year, with 20 years to build the pyramid. Also assuming that more time had to be used for the huge granite blocks for the King's chamber & upper part of the #pyramid. Image

πŸ‘€πŸ’­1/2: The #Giza Pleateu is home to some of the most astonishing #ancient #megalithic structures on the planet. Many question how it was built as these fascinating structures seemed to have been built using some technologies more advanced than our modern day tools. #Archaeology
πŸ‘€πŸ’­ 2/2 I think most people don't understand what they are looking at, this stone was a practice stone being worked on by the #civilization that proceeded the original, they tried to replicate the work that had been done previously effortlessly. #Archaeology #Megalithic #Ancient

πŸ‘€πŸ’­ In 2003 the Secret Tunnel Of The Pyramid of #FeatheredSerpent was discovered beneath the #Pyramid in the #ancient ruins of #Teotihuacan. It remained undisturbed for 2,000 years. The sealed-off passage was found to contain thousands of extraordinary treasures. #Archaeology
πŸ‘€πŸ’­ The secret tunnel was discovered by using a radar. It was a group of researchers from Mexico's National University,Β back in 2003 in the ancient city of #Teotihuacan, #Mexico, located about 30 miles NE of Mexico City. #Archaeology #Megalithic #Ancient #Pyramid
