Just a moment, no need to exaggerate:
“The third layer was built prior to Cal.BP. 9,500, and could be as old as Cal.BP.13,000 to 28,000 years.”
Anyway is something wrong with the official human history
For sure . Imo the “official human history” is a myth. The good thing is that it’s being debunked by new findings.
The burial of these structures around 9000 years ago adds further intrigue for reasons not fully understood. Given the long and continuous occupation of Gunung Padang, it is reasonable to speculate that this site held significant importance, attracting ancient people to repeatedly occupy and modify it.
This has been the problem with dating these structures. Carbon dating the objects found inside is consistent both with those people building it and with those people finding it and using it. The latter means the structure was built prior to the civilization being credited with building it.
There were always things in official prehistory that didn’t add up to me, even with the ancient Egyptians. I have visited museums of Egyptian art and seen statues, sarcophagi and vessels, all finely made of granite. Then they said that they only had bronze tools. Okay, show me how you can carve one of the hardest stones that exists in this way with these tools. I think there must have been much more advanced cultures long before that was destroyed by some cataclysm tens of thousands of years ago, and current discoveries seem to increasingly confirm this.
Predynastic jar of granite from 3400 BCE
apparently ancient egypt had diamond tipped tools which could have turned granite on a lathe.
Maybe, but also in a big granite sarcophag of more than 100 tons made in one piece? A lot of diamonds needed for this
Serapeum of Saqqara
Maybe they used another system
Devices that could cause the high-heat needed, or any chemical substance unknown, able to liquefy the granite? The latter seems to me the most likely explanation, and the staircase suffered an accident with this substance.
they also had abrasives and used wet techniques for flat surface grinding of granite. but im out of my element with this stuff completely. maybe aliens?
I don’t think so, people are too quick to explain everything with aliens, that the human being is much older than what was believed, it is much more probable and that there were already advanced civilizations before that have disappeared due to a cataclysm. The fact that they found skeletons of primitive hominids from 2 million years ago does not mean that they were all like that, before that there were many different human races and they may have existed in very different states of evolution.
Nah those dates are highly criticized, and it’s an archeological site on a hill not a pyramid.
