A clip showing how to make large limestone blocks using a technique that came from the Egyptians 3500 years ago.

Well, I had heard years ago of the theory that the Egyptians did not roll so many massive blocks, but built the layers using something akin to concrete, and this clip shows how it was possible, especially with the heat of the sun over Egypt as opposed to France. Good clip showing the ancients were no dummies.

Artificial Limestone Making... Concrete_blocks_05

Under the concrete of the Pyramid of the Sun, the series of large sandstone blocks show various types of rocks (differing pebbles and cobbles), including sandy quartz limestone, when more closely analyzed. It is thought that the concrete is made from material found at a locally deposited post glacial conglomerate. Experts who examined these crystals determined that during the manufacturing process, the materials were heated to above 500 degrees. Studies done at the University of Paris discovered that the concrete material found on the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun was five times stronger than modern day concrete. The concrete was shown to be resistant to 94 Megapascals of pressure, which means it is highly compressed and extremely rigid - concrete of this strength is only available in a few very developed countries at special request.

Maybe more advanced than we are today.

We look through the eyes of western civilization, no?

Like how the West talked about those Indian Savages, maybe they were really more advanced than we are today. Imagine if we lived today as the native Americans did before the Spanish came and ruined everything.

Hehe Ags!

It depends on how one defines "Civilisation" VM/Omega. The Native Americans were very much in tune with their environment, something that we in the most part, are not.

Also, some groups were more socially evolved than the Europeans, Women lead, but the big council of the Iroquois nations they selected the mentally healthiest, smartest, and humblest of the men to be a "chief" to represent them.
