A Thorough Exploration Of Ancient Ollantaytambo In The Sacred Valley Of Peru

Check out my books about ancient Peru here: www.amazon.com/s?k=Brien+Foer...

For those who are interested in the topic of polygonal masonry. A number of methods for obtaining the polygonal masonry are proposed. The basis of the proposed methods is the use of clay/gypsum replicas, a topography translator, and reduced clay models of the stone blocks along with a 3D-pantograph. The results are presented in the article: “Fabrication methods of the polygonal masonry of large tightly-fitted stone blocks with curved surface interfaces in megalithic structures of Peru”.

Replicate it today with the tools, materials, and within the time allotted mainstream archaeologists' say they had back in the time of the Incas

[@SueDonum123]

I just read your paper, Rostislav. Sorry, you are way off the mark. It has more flaws than a Manhattan skyscraper

[@RostislavLapshin]

@Mikey Smith Let's say I have successfully proved the efficiency of the methods, where will I put the results of my work, throw them in the garbage? If there will be a customer and a decent place for the polygonal wall erected, then it's another matter. In this case, I am ready to personally process the stones with my own hands according to the description given in the article.

Brien, I cannot thank you enough for providing all of us with the amazing video footage/content on your channel! I'll probably never have the opportunity to go visit these places so watching and listening to you narrate is the next best thing to being there

[@WisconsinWanderer]

Unbelievable thank you Brian

[@yeoldfart8762]

This place always amazes me. The Inca did incredible stone work. It just suffers from having to be compared to the megalithic work. This place was built to feed people. I think it would be grand if did so again.

I strongly believe that those were very advanced ETs who created this paleo stone work.

[@rickgrear8270]

I wonder if the stones were cut from a larger stone, and then placed back together for the perfect fit. But then you'd still need to fit the outer stones somehow with other stones. It's a mystery and amazing construction

[@celloquadrelli7155]

Shave mountain tops off,basically miles of consecutive massive cuts.

[@rickgrear8270]

@@celloquadrelli7155 Yes for long walls, such as in Cusco area, they could have had a long quarry and dug down and cut them out consecutively. As they cut them out they transported them and arranged them in the same pattern. Might have been using some kind of string saw, or resonance for the cuts. Wouldn't explain the appearance of these rocks, many of them look softened, hense the mystery

[@rickgrear8270]

Also, if they used this way of fitting the stones, the quarry would have been in the same shape and dimensions as the final building or wall, so they could have the well fitting corner pieces

[@rickgrear8270]

Of course if there is a stone that seems out of place, which I believe there are, ie is a different texture or color than the ones next to it, then it was fitted from a different location than the others using perfect skill

[@MACLER17]

11:35 first time to see an actually unfinished cut of the megalithic culture. very interesting

[@danielcruz8347]

Fascinating well filmed presentation, It's like night and day differing time construction periods, Ancient megalithic builders were not inhibited by high altitude weight or gravity, and possibly for these very reasons they came under attack from Superior Creator, The Inca had to survive times of immense periods of rain fall and drought so they became experts at water control, As water is at same time life giving and life taking destructive. Enjoyed this presentation. Thank you for sharing peace

[@steve-o6413]

I don't believe it was the Inca who built the megalithic structures for exact reasons you listed that they had too overcome. I mean look at the difficulties that Brien pointed out on the Inca trail...

[@danielcruz8347]

@@steve-o6413I did not state that Inca,s built earliest monuments...

[@steve-o6413]

@@danielcruz8347 true. But the Hydrodynamic Systems most likely installed at the same time as the Megalithic Structures. In Ukraine after the fighting and destruction is over they will rebuild. After War they will rebuild quickly usually using modern techniques planning for the future, but they will salvage what infrastructure they can just to get going. This is why we build upon existing Cities. What we see in Peru is opposite of what we expect to see. Instead of modernization we see a decline. This is what Brien and others have been pointing out and mainstream has been silent about. War is a minimal scale, what we are looking at seems to be on a Global Scale this is the puzzle...

Thank you Brien for your videos. What you show is so interesting and exciting, I can't see enough of it. At 15:00 you can see small knobs on the stone blocks. These are everywhere in the world. Also in Egypt. I've been wondering for years what the point of these knobs is and why they are everywhere. Maybe we will find the solution someday. I hope you show many more of these interesting videos. Maybe someday I can travel there myself. Thanks again. Best greetings from Germany.

I love the pre-Inca cultures and the Inca Empire also for their great contribution to humanity with food. With their great organizational capacity and their advanced and sophisticated agricultural techniques, they domesticated many of the foods and superfoods that we currently consume.

[@randomcanadian6890]

Have there been any scientific studies into the theory of the ancient cataclysm in Peru (or anywhere else)? Have any core samples been taken / studied from the ground? Love the videos by the way, it's like I'm actually there!

[@stephenphillips4984]

The global catastrophe science calls the Younger Dryas cooling event about 12900 years ago caused by global fires due to impact from cometary debris. The evidence for this is now very strong. It resulted in the YD climate episode, extinction of Pleistocene megafauna, demise of the Clovis archeological culture, and a range of other effects.

[@shine-on-tv8082]

Damn this is amazing it's sad we don't ever here about this in the mainstream TV in America.

[@daleellis5521]

I visited Peru on a small group tour a few decades ago. We saw several ancient sites, but not this one. Thank you for this review of the site. It is wonderful and amazing. Would love to go there but at 80 I am not sure I will make it, at least not with this body the way aging is working away at it. I love the water works made by the Inca. A question occurred to me. I live in a community on a hill/lmountain side. We have a number of issues with erosion to deal with. How did the Inca deal with erosion on the steep mountain sides? Was terracing a major way?

[@markeaton2003]

Even if past people were able to soften stone, then why and how are these stones so perfectly cut on angles, and different stones would bond to each other as the rock itself does? the knobs still perplex me, because I still can't figure out any meaning or purpose for them. If they were used for placement, then why not seen on all stones? I see no smbolic reason for them. Maybe they made them to drive people crazy trying to figure it out.

[@thisoldsaw5438]

Fantastic work Brien! Question for you…. With so much level ground in the valley for agriculture why take on the monumental task of building the terraces?

[@SL-sd3sg]

The knobs May have been for climbing?

[@Markthespark1970]

Mind blowing to think the Quarry is across the valley, how on earth did the builders achieve such building techniques? The megaliths have curious patterns on the surface, as if the rock was soft at the construction phase.

[@henkvanwijk9229]

Granit boulders in Zimbabwe are peeling !

[@jjosborne1982]

You need to scan the face of those rocks. I've seen a lot of programs where thy scan rock faces to see if there is any type of inscription or pattern. I wish I knew more about that technology to give you more information on it.

[@mobieus7]

16:03 I see a double water powered hammer platform standing on its side. The square cuts hold the fulcrum which is parallel to the water source (they redirected streams, you say?). The hammer arm see-saws pounding stones into the two holes.

[@scottmaytham3578]

Looking at a picture of one of Jupiter's moons there appears to be similar scorching there too.

[@gregsmith1719]

"It looks almost like it's been trawled," you say. But. I think it may be molded. And those are intentions from the boards in the framing enclosing the poured concrete. But, it could also be trawled marks on a stucco over the rock. But it's definitely not carved with a chisel and hammer.

Over 9,000' in elevation. The clear air and shining sun makes for spectacular views. Does it get a lot of snow?

[@PeaceProfit]

Megalithic blocks appear to be quarried and shaped using a hotwire technology. Like cutting styrofoam... Moved and placed with acoustic levitation. Nubs are for exterior bracing during final finish work before placement. 👣🕊👽

[@hanscakestealer8546]

I wonder what your opinion is of the Sage Wall in Montana, do you think its magalithic or simply a natural occurance.

[@bryancollins6903]

Brien,, Hello. Unlikely you will ever read this... I always notice the stubs or knobs on the Large stones even on Stones in the megalithic wall... Perhaps the protruding knobs were there to Fit Ropes around etc.. Making a grip of some sort possible for lifting... But they leave some stubs sticking out,,, and you can notice these stubs in other blocks around the world... Used for rope or Wood bracing??? (Anyone)

[@Js-rq9uj]

That shot @4:02 was stunning and honestly one of the most curious things I've ever seen. The veins of the tan stone twist up in the rock face on the right. Is that piece in the middle leaning over or flush? It seems to meet right where the twisting cracks start. Did someone cut it to fall across the space to make a bridge or is it useful in someway if its flush? The angle its at would redirect rainfall from that nicely angled bowl above it. If the lowest level of that structure is sloped backwards it would make for a good catchment for rain.

[@Js-rq9uj]

@5:53 it appears to be sloped forward and in line with the non-monolithic stone coursework.

[@kricketflyd111]

Ok who put that key shape in that stone? Without seeing others, it looks like the original stone construction had an even older culture restoring that site then another cataclysm came along.

[@lynwoodreed9032]

there is a sandstone that can bend, called itacolumite, they probably knew how to perfect it to mold the stones

[@matthewpelham8975]

It really does make you wonder, it's easy to look to ets but the megalithic builders around the world could be a previous high technology group of humans who did go through an upheaval so big it sent them into the stone age.

[@Zinnia1234]

If you look at 1:54 you will see massive stone walls with nubs on them. I remember watching a video on Machu Picchu, a massive ancient structure in South America. The video stated they didn’t know what those nubs on the massive stones were used for. I didn’t know that there were ancient structures in Egypt with those same nubs on them. How did 2 ancient civilizations, on 2 different continents use the same building skills and the same nubs on their massive stones, and yet… no one know how those stones were moved or what the nubs were for???

[@marysstilllearning5803]

Isn't it more logical that the giant blocks were made of geo-polymers and that is why they don't decompose like normal stones? It also makes a lot more sense than claiming that they were quarried on that distant mountain and magically transported to where they lay now, which would be an impossible task to move through this extremely rugged terrain!
