Description

Join us in Egypt December 6-21, 2026! https://unchartedx.com/primordial2026/ Support UnchartedX: https://unchartedx.com/support A full-length documentary looking into the evidence for ancient machining, centered around a remarkable granite slab found on the rarely visited Ancient Egyptian pyramid site of Abu Rawash. We explore the context and history of the ancient, igneous masonry on these sites with witness marks that don't match anything in the known dynastic ancient Egyptian toolbox. Following expert testimony and analysis from precision machining experts and manufacturing engineers, the only reasonable conclusion is that advanced machining processes were in use at Abu Rawash, as well as on other Ancient Egyptian sites, at some point in the distant past.

The most difficult thing to get your head around is that this content is completely free for us to enjoy. Thank you for what you do Ben!

For 25 years I maintained band & circle saws, (up to 10' in Diameter ) in Oregon sawmills. Some of these saw cuts look exactly like what happens when you overfeed or under-cool a circular saw. When overheated, the outer portion of the saw expands faster than the inner portion, (because that's where the work's being done). That expanding metal is trapped because of the circular shape and causes the blade to deflect/deviate out of the line of cut. That causes the saw itself to "cup,'" rub and generate even more heat until it self-destructs, (if not shut down). That would produce what they're puzzled about at 58:30 on, a concaved shape in the cut line, (kerf). The other half of the cut would be convex looking of course. Seen this exact same feature hundreds of times in logs with an overheated/overfed saw. It looks impossible but actually makes sense if you understand what's happening. But how did they have saws that big & still that concentric? Also, you HAVE to have accurate & durable bearings for a saw that size & weight AND a very ridged frame. Even a few thousandths of an inch of play anywhere in the system would be amplified out toward the rim making it useless as a saw. Remember too, you have to move either the giant saw or the giant block of stone. A pendulum type saw would be easier but still mind boggling. But there it is, cuts in giant blocks of stone made by, not just machinery, but REALLY GOOD MACHINERY!!!

because of you, I went to Egypt and had a look for myself, I am a CNC machinist (videos on my page) and I think you are correct, they without a doubt used machines. It was AMAZING and will be going back in September

Literally made my weekend this is top of the range stuff for free so everyone should consider becoming a member to support his work. We should all be grateful that people like him are out there documenting these incredible mysteries and sharing it with the world. Much respect Ben and please keep doing what you do best.
