EGYPT 2000 BC: Drills were used that turned 500X faster than today's power drills and bored into granite rock with ease.

Dentists worked with cement fillings, dental bridges, and inserted artificial teeth.

Doctors performed pregnancy tests, determined the sex of an unborn child, fed nourishment through tubes, fitted artificial legs and hands; and used anesthetic and sophisticated instruments to perform bone and brain surgery?

Mysterious moving walls, automatically flashing lights and lamps that shone century after century, non-stop?

A detailed map of Antarctica dating back thousands of years, without ice!

A 400 ft pyramid was found on the seabed.

44 skeletons were excavated in Pakistan dating to about 2000BC and found to be radioactive!

There are 25 places around the world which show hard evidence that atomic warfare was used thousands of years ago.

In Peru, 4-dimensional art with several faces that disappear or change into other figures, according to your position or that of the sun.

Dinosaurs and people coexisted.

There are approximately 600 legends worldwide that a world flood took place about 4,400 years ago.

....and hundreds more!

Speaking of GH, his book America Before proposes that the NA & SA continents were a possible home for some sort of very advanced culture, but with the comet strike of 10,800 BC on the Ice Cap, it was obliterated by the 100 year long bombardment (mostly air bursters); the resulting ice and fire storms left a layer of ash from the incinerated flora, megafauna and humans. See Carolina Bays and Nebraska Rainwater Basins.

Documentation is for men who have no imagination.

I think that is so apt here on FR. Make any sort of non-standard, meme-conflicting statement and that is one of the first things posters demand. I even had one guy demand documentation for something unusual that happened at a private funeral in the mid70s.

[PIF]

people who do not work (in some way) with new ideas, inventions, discoveries, etc., have a difficult time understanding things not already present in our world and culture.

---

Add: anything that conflicts with the meme of the day; things learned or heard about decades ago which conflict with the new; anything not in the Bible/Scripture.

[PIF]

Dinosaurs and people coexisted.

Ummm. Yeah.

then again explain objects found in coal lumps of obvious manufacture;

OR 2,800,000,000 B.C. - Randian Era
ANOMALY: Klerksdorp Spherical Objects found in Africa.

Some of the objects have a set of three parallel grooves around their equators, and some are reported to be metallic. Found in pyrophyllite in Western Transvaal, Africa. Pyrophyllite is a quite soft secondary mineral formed by sedimentation. The highly specific dating of the pyrophyllite rock layers in which these spheres are found gives an age of 2.8 billion years. The globes are claimed to have a fibrous structure on the inside with a shell around it.

These objects were found many decades ago (prior to 1980), but only recently have been reexamined. Not all are round, and none of the metallic ones have been examined. Some claim they are far younger than the surrounding material. Some testing has claimed that their balance exceeded the limit of the measuring technology - balanced to within 1/100,000ths of an inch from absolute perfection, and the only way that either nature or human technology could create them would be in zero gravity.

It should be noted that the external appearance of some spheres closely resembles images returned by the Cassini-Huygens Mission of Saturn's moon Iapetus.

It is also postulated that these could be some form of life seed. See Crick/Orgel 1973 Icarus paper (the Panspermia hypothesis) and Crick, Francis, Life Itself, 1981. These objects are dated to just before the first known appearance of life in the immediately following Proterozoic Eon.

Can you provide proof of that?

[PIF]

Zecharia Sitchin was a fraud and an insurance agent who made up his own translations ... Anyone can find the Sumerian dictionary online today and make their own translations of anything Sumerian and none of that will even approach Sitchin’s fairy tales

[GingisK]

Documentation is required to close the project.

Drills were used that turned 500X faster than today's power drills

We know this to be a fact because such is clearly printed on the nameplate of all of those drills that were dug out of the sand. If that isn't enough, just read the manual chisled into a nearby rock. < /sarcasm>

[GingisK]

That is right. Vikings knew the specified RPM of their drills without first reading the manual. < /sarcasm>

Just ask Flokie.

[GingisK]

You are my kind of babe! ;-D

[PIF]

See Graham Hancock’s “America Before”, or just follow the latest results of DNA and blood group tracings for ancient populations ... no aliens required, rather it is necessary to think in a different manner that we do today (logical as opposed to symbolic thinking) to even begin to understand anything the ancients achieved.

Also keep in mind that most of the very ancient world in now under many hundreds of feet of water, silt and mud.

[PeterPrinciple]

The concept in the Babel narrative is that man was building a tower to Heaven
Actually, it is thought they were building a kind of “portal” to the heavenly dimension. A kind of artificial Mt Hermon, which was the portal through which the “watchers” were said to have had ingress and egress to and from our dimension.
BTW, keep in mind that it was Nimrod who was the driving force for the Tower of Babel. Nimrod was himself a demigod (half-breed or Nephilim). Nimrod was, it has been said, trying to regain access to the world from which he and/or his ancestors had been ejected (in the

What does God say on the matter:

Gen 11:4  Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth.” 

Their purpose was to centralize power. To be in control, just like today’s current governments.....................

[GingisK]

One merely has to read that on the nameplate of those ancient drills that are kept in museums everywhere.

I ran with these New Age crowds years ago, always attempting to explain how their lack knowledge made them susceptible to ridiculous notions. No amount of tact or patience could sway them.

I even went to their "Holy Grail" documentation, usually to find that they were misreading the material. They couldn't be convinced of that either.

Now I just regard them as cheap entertainment. They are a delight to heckle.

Vikings knew the specified RPM of their drills without first reading the manual.

Did Vikings use drills in the exploration of the North Atlantic and North America?

Gee, ya learn new something everyday.;-)

[Kommodor]

Welp, there goes my plan to become the “Highlander”.

As to certain other things, I suspect that there are lifespan enhancement experiments in progress, and we are seeing them in action with the super powerful and wealthy. (I won’t mention names, but you get the idea.)

I suspect that even should they succeed, the processes involved will be so expensive as to only be available to the ‘elites’. Blecch.

Personally, I hope they never succeed, and I think I’ll breathe a sigh of relief if/when the current batch have shuffled off their mortal coils.

[GingisK]

It is true! Didn’t you ever see Cave Man?

Just watched an ww11 movie. The engineers were trained to know the rpm of engines by sound and vibrations, no gauges.

The human being is the most marvelous creation...................

[GingisK]

Why, of course we are supposed to take what uneducated people say as fact. If they were able to prove their stance, they would be able to submit definitive documentation. Otherwise, how would anyone along the knowledge chain even get the idea that "ancient Egyptians had power drills which where 500 times faster than ours"? All people are asking is how such a conclusion was made?

Faith in God is one thing. Faith in Hadichol salesmen is another.

[PIF]

I don't know about the 500X statement, but they did use high speed drills and other machines. See "Lost Technologies of Ancient Egypt" by Christopher Dunn - a machinist and engineer. He goes into just what was necessary from a modern engineering perspective to carve and produce Karnak and many other granite statues, boxes, and odd objects with mysterious holes.

Note also the use of high speed drills by the people in the Denisovan cave, dated to 45,000-38,000 BC who made beautiful jewelry.

Their purpose was to centralize power. To be in control, just like today’s current governments

That isn't a very convincing answer.

The mere power of a consolidated government in ancient Babel isn't exactly a frightening concept.

Obviously something more was going on.
