MORE ADVANCED THAN NOW IN SOME WAYS
I’ve been trying for a few years now to determine how advanced the ancients were technologically. Initially, it seemed like they may have been more advanced than now. But then I found some evidence against it, with claims that simple tools could have accomplished what they made. But, now it’s looking like the early ancients were fairly advanced technologically, due mainly to their apparent knowledge of chemistry and possibly electricity. They were likely not nearly as advanced as modern tech, but they were apparently much more advanced than modern experts suppose. PS, I just came across this video Mr. Adam Young: The Inexplicably Precise Predynastic Stone Vessels of Egypt, which is similar to one a few months ago by Uncharted X. Together these videos give evidence that the ancients were more advanced than us, at least in producing precisely formed stone objects, including vases etc.

1. STATIC ELECTRICITY FOR RELIGION
This 4 year-old video, Ancient Egyptian electricity inside the Great Pyramid of Giza, explains how the Great Pyramid structure may have been used to make static electricity for religious purposes. I transcribed some of the video below.
The video suggests that the Grand Gallery may have been used to produce high-voltage static electricity, using the following apparatus, described in the following text.
LORD KELVIN’S APPARATUS
The Egyptians certainly knew about electricity as a basic concept. The electric catfish of the Nile was well known. And they knew enough about electricity to use animals like this to treat people with epilepsy and to provide temporary pain relief. But we're going to take this one step further. There's some unexplained features in the Great Pyramid and some have suggested that it may have produced electricity. Specifically, it's been proposed that the pyramid may have served as a Lord Kelvin's thunderstorm device. So let's crack open the Great Pyramid of Giza and take a look at these unexplained features. What immediately stands out to me is the Grand Gallery. Its purpose isn't clear. Let's take a look at an electrical generator that the ancient Egyptians may have known about. This simple device has no moving parts, just falling water. Just because it's simple doesn't mean it's not impressive, though. This little device can generate thousands of volts of electricity. Here's what's going on. We have a reservoir containing water. We have two streams which pass through two {open} cylinders. The streams naturally break up into droplets at some point, and we position the cylinders at that transition point. The droplets then collect into buckets. Because the buckets are insulated from each other, there's always going to be a small initial difference in charge between them. In our example, the right bucket is slightly negatively charged and is connected to the cylinder on the opposite stream {by a conductor}, making it slightly negative as well. The charge on the left cylinder will attract positive ions from the water. The water droplets from that left hand stream carry that positive charge along with it, and those drops fall into the bucket, giving the bucket a slight positive charge, and now the right cylinder is positively charged, and it similarly attracts the negative ions. These exponentially accumulate voltage with every drop and the result is a substantial electrical discharge. Today we refer to this device as Lord Kelvin's Thunderstorm. The ancient Egyptians had access to water, metal and stone, all of the materials needed to make this work.
RELIGIOUS PURPOSE OF REANIMATION
Is there any indirect evidence of electricity in their mythology? There's a myth called the Story of Ra, where God created a magical snake that could inflict a sting, described like this. It's like fire and yet it's not fire. It's like water and yet it's not water. I burn and I shiver while all my limbs tremble. Is there any indirect written proof that they incorporated a spark generator specifically into the Great Pyramid? The answer is yes again, and it's in one of the oldest documents that we have. It tells the story of a magician who was consulted for his knowledge to apply to the construction of Khufu's tomb. In that same document, the magician had the power to reanimate the dead. If you apply an electrical shock to your muscles, they'll twitch. This effect can also be seen on dead bodies. And our device is capable of delivering that effect. It isn't far-fetched that the Egyptians would refer to this as reanimating the dead. After all, this discovery helped to inspire the story of Frankenstein in more modern times. If the Egyptians came up with this, what were they doing with the electricity? Do I think that they were using it to charge up their spaceships? Probably not.
It may have served a two-fold purpose. From their writings, we know that the ancient Egyptians were interested in reanimation after death. There are funerary rights to reanimate each section of the body, the brain, the head, limbs, et cetera, so that the spiritual body could move in the afterlife. For example, there's an opening of the mouth ceremony to allow the deceased to talk, to breathe, to eat. As such, I think that the Egyptians would have been keenly interested in being able to move their body after death. It's also suggested that the pyramid shape may have symbolized sunbeams, that the pharaoh could ascend to the stars. Perhaps wires were routed to the top, making a symbolic manifestation of the Sun. The Egyptians certainly knew about electricity as a basic concept. What the Egyptians knew beyond that just isn't well documented. We've already discussed that they had the means, the water, the metal and the stone, to make this work, and I believe that we've also established the motivation to pursue this. As we know they were interested in reanimation and tying their beliefs into their architecture, and I think they also had plenty of opportunity. When the Nile floods, you can't farm and people have plenty of time for other things, like art, public works. We estimate that Egypt contained around 2 million people during the time of Khufu, and that means 2 million opportunities for someone to make discoveries and ask questions. So with means, motivation and opportunity, I think that we might have circumstantial evidence for a theory, and I think it might tie together some of these anomalous features of the pyramid into a single plan which is a lot more satisfying than most of the guesses that I've seen.
2. ZAPPING TO RAISE CONSCIOUSNESS
Andrew Hall: Electricity in Ancient Egypt
In this video Andrew Hall uses images like the following to suggest that the ancient Egyptians used static electricity to zap each other in the nose for religious consciousness raising experiences.
In this last image, he suggested that they also zapped themselves in the top of the head as well.
3. SOFTEN STONE WITH ELECTRODES?
The Greatest Mystery, Solved. Recreating Ancient Stone Melding Technology (Part 1)
The above video says small holes in ancient megaliths are where electrodes were inserted to heat stone to soften it. He says by changing the polarity they could even reduce the weight to make them easier to lift and move. He shows that a couple electrodes were found in one of the air shafts or something in the Great Pyramid, I guess. I didn't hear him say where the electricity would have come from. Maybe if the atmosphere was highly electrified, there was a way to store charge in large batteries of some kind.
4. ANCIENT CHEMICAL TECH: NATRON
The Land of Chem video channel (that Andrew Hall recommended in his recent TB video) seems to be answering a lot of questions about how advanced ancient civilizations were and where they got their knowledge. And the Natron Theory is adding to that quite a bit. I just discovered the Natron Theory today on a video. If you do a search at https://www.youtube.com/results?search_ ... ron+theory you'll see a bunch of recent videos on it. This is the video I just saw: Aswan Scoop Marks and Stone Softening. Marcell Foti there, a Hungarian, has a website, https://natrontheory.com/, which the video discussed. The video is pretty long and you might get more out of the website. I only skimmed through the video, but I read the whole site. It doesn't take long. I'm surprised that they found ancient Egyptian scenes of apparently making stone softening chemicals. The site says Natron is a kind of salt which is abundant in the Nile valley. People have been hand-picking and collecting it in baskets since ancient times. Ancient Egyptians used natron for at least ten different purposes: Washing clothes, drying food, medical treatment, mouthwashing, ceramics, textile dyeing, insecticide, conserve papyrus, cosmetic and Mummification, as well as glass-making and etching hard stone.
Tomb of Rekhmire. There's a certain wall painting in the Metropolitan Museum, known as the Tomb of Rekhmire, that depicts metal smelting?
Foot bellows. {At top:} The tool at their feet is fairly easy to identify - it's a bellows, equipped with strings. The strings are used because, prior to the discovery of iron there were no springs. So, instead of springs, strings are used to reset the bellows to their original position after being stepped on. In the pile, since the men are heating the floor, it's natron. They are using molten natron to etch the granite floor.

This is exactly how you can work with {natron} waterglass-based artificial stones, the geopolymers. After mixing, they are just like play-doh. An hour later, they start to harden but can still be cut with a knife. After a day, they become as hard as rock.
5. ANCIENT STRUCTURES WERE CHEMICAL FACTORIES
Andrew Hall: Megalithic Chemistry.
Andrew Hall says in this recent Thunderbolts video that Drumm has the best answers about the purpose of ancient megalithic structures, which is that they were chemical factories for making crop fertilizers and acids for mining. He said the atmosphere was much more electrified in those days and the structures were designed to attract electricity to power the manufacturing. He recommends Drumm's video channel at https://www.youtube.com/@thelandofchem/videos. {I made a more convenient index of his titles with hyperlinks to each video.} He said the iron connectors on stone blocks were designed to conduct electricity better between blocks and that they were too weak to hold the structures together. He said the Moon used to orbit the Earth in 2 days per orbit and that the Moon's orbit was over the river valleys of the early civilizations and it aided electrification of megalithic structures.
6. HOW SOPHISTICATED WERE THE ANCIENTS?
Nick says advanced tech wasn't needed to build the structures and to make the incredible objects found from ancient Egypt. Geoffrey Drumm and Marcell Foti agree that it was not as advanced as modern tech, but it was more advanced than mainstream science recognizes. Their chemistry and metallurgy were fairly advanced, apparently. Foti showed that natron gave the ability to soften stone to make it easier to quarry and metallurgy allowed them to figure out how to add arsenic to copper to make it cut stone much easier. And he showed how a water wheel could have powered a two-man handsaw to cut stone without manual labor. Drumm says they knew how to make copper pipes that could move methane and possibly even convert methane to hydrogen. That could have been used to move stone blocks on water. The pyramids could have been built by raising water up as they were being built and floating the blocks on the water.
7. ORIGIN IN ATLANTIS?
I think I mentioned yesterday here that Geoffrey Drumm (the owner of The Land of Chem channel and author of a book of the same name) figures that Atlantis was in North America, which was decimated & flooded during the Younger Dryas events, so the Atlanteans moved away in all directions, ending up in Peru, Japan, India, Egypt, Britain, Ireland etc., where they all started local civilizations with megalithic structures mainly for producing chemicals for ag, mining, etc. I plan to look through his videos more to see if any of them show good evidence of a former advanced civilization in North America before the Younger Dryas. The author of the Ancient Architects channel and/or Randall Carlson have suggested that Atlantis was in the Atlantic either west of Ireland, or in the Azores when the oceans were much lower and much more land was habitable there. At least one pyramid has been found underwater in the Azores (west of western Africa). So I imagine the Atlanteans could have spread out from the Azores about as easily as from North America. Anyway, the research findings on similar megalithic structures around the Earth which seem to have been used for somewhat advanced chemical manufacturing now seem to be converging on proof of a former advanced culture that spread around the world, probably due to cataclysms.
8. ANCIENT EGYPT INVASION THEORY
I had a brief thought that invasion may explain how knowledge of the functions of the pyramids etc was lost. David Rohl had a convincing video showing that probably after the Tower of Babel disaster in Mesopotamia many of the people sailed up the Red Sea and hauled their ships overland to the Nile River around Memphis or Luxor. I don't recall exactly where offhand. But they took over rulership of Egypt. If the pyramids were built before their arrival, the earlier people may have refused to explain how to operate the structures as chemical factories.
