Baalbek Temple | The Mega-Platforms Built by Giants | Part 4 of Series | Megalithomania

Part1: • Megaliths & Giants of ... . Part 2: • Megaliths & Giants of ... . Part 3: • Baalbek Temple: Ancien... . In part four of the series on Baalbek, Lebanon (originally published in 2018), Hugh Newman explores the biggest stones at the main temple including the mighty western and northern walls that contain some of the largest megaliths on the planet. Some weight up to 800 tons each, with the lower level forming a gigantic platform spread throughout the site.

Thanks Hugh, nice stuff you do... In this, the stairway appears to have been "remade" using much smaller stones, to make much smaller "human" sized steps. Looking at the sides of the steps, one can see a set of much bigger "giant" steps in the original set of steps. Am I seeing things?? Lol

[@REKLESSWOLVES1]

2:55 into the video, lets address those square holes in the stones, first of all if you are going to move a large block it would be easier to do so if that block has right angle corners and faces so you could get a firm grip on it, angled cuts or radius cuts don`t make for good firm attachment points, so i believe the builders would have rough quarried the blocks on site, roughly faced them to be square or rectangles and then moved them to the build site, ( Baalbek ) once the block was dressed on the build site to butt up against it`s neighbouring block, work began on the face or front decoration, if you look along that wall at 2:55 you`ll notice the block on the left looks finished, it has an angled chamfered slope cut into it that terminates into another vertical face, now if you want to judge how much material depth you need to remove from that chamfer when it`s in situ like that, the best way to do that would be to cut depth holes, or in this case they cut square holes, and you would remove the material in between each hole to the holes depth and eventually you would end up with a smooth flat even plain, these holes resemble those that are left when you use a wood morticing tool, it`s a square hollow tube with a centre drill in it, the drill removes the bulk of the material and the square tube squares up the corners, these holes wouldn`t need to be precisely horizontal, as can be seen they aren`t, all they have to have is the same depth of cut, looks to me like these blocks were positioned and then some kind of a circular saw on guides was pushed along the top face, ( check out the Festool TS55 and rail saw guide to give you an idea what i`m on about ) that blade cut the square vertical face down to the depth of the chamfer which would give you a perfectly level and horizontal cut to work up to, it`s obvious to anyone who`s worked with stone and power tools ( as i have being a kitchen fitter for 40 years ) that these blocks were cut and shaped using some kind of heavy cutting machinery, the proof and trace cut marks are present all over the world if one takes the time to look, Christopher Dunn who is an engineer goes into great detail about this, it`s obvious to me that there was once a highly advanced, mechanical and technological civilisation that existed on a global scale tens of thousands of years ago that was destroyed and all but wiped out by some global cataclysm that halted work on these sites, that`s why so many of them appear to be in a state of incompletion as if the workers just suddenly downed tools, and thousands of years later when mankind repopulated itself, these ancient monuments were rediscovered and repurposed to suit there current needs, they were rebuilt upon, reimagined and resettled, this includes the Dynastic Egyptians, The Phoenicians, The Maya, Inca etc, because every site across the globe shows trace evidence of the same manufacturing and building practices, it`s like us now going to an abandoned ruin of a medieval castle, we don`t know who built it, but we rebuild on it using the materials we know how to work, smaller stones that are easier to manipulate and put in place, the earlier larger stonework would be at the bottom and our cruder smaller stonework would be on the top, the exact same thing is seen here at Baalbek and all over the world, the sooner mainstream Archaeology employs modern day engineering analysis and detailed Lidar and Laser mapping to these sites the better chance we`ll have at understanding how and possibly who built these amazing structures, instead of them burying their heads in the sand because these anomalies don`t `gel` with their pre conceived dogmatic notions of the linear evolution of mankind and technology.

[@joemeyers4131]

And other things to do with ancient landscapes of different animals like that hippos lived in the Lebanon rivers once ..likely ekephants lived not far from Baalbek so that the area was like places in Africa once becuz the Mideast not always open to be barren but had trees and vegetation more likely too . And likely springs with large oases. Jungle looking way maybe .

[@joemeyers4131]

Baalbek likely built the way residences of a cities were before the world wide flood of Noah ( hint in Genesis 4 ) . As a hint of stone walled cities in a previous existence and not the older ones like after flood times generally of Egypt . So by logic are 2 ages , one old after the flood and even older of before it . They are not all in one bag . Much of that previous world wide civilization destroyed at the flood to follow the logic . Not much survived from before flood times . So figure they used massive stones . But do know what water can do to continents when at absolute force including throwing things weighing tons .

The prcision cutting, precision placement and mass of hundreds of tons make this a remarkable, humbling place. How did they manage this? If they had a large circular saw, how was it powered? How did they dress stone to kiss together like this, and how did they transport and place them? We have no answers. It seems we were preceded by an older culture who had abilities we do not have, and our only trace that they were here long before us, the Romans, the Greeks, are their walls of massive blocks of expertly quarried and dressed stone megaliths,

[@dezman56ford]

400 - 800 tonne blocks, simply amazing, even for a giant 20 to 25 ft tall these blocks would have been extremely difficult to position in a precise manner and yet the evidence is profound, the construction begs the question, how? what manner of construction was used to build walls of this scale and with exacting precision, even giants would have required some type of mechanical device to position the stones and yet no constructive device has ever been found or recorded for posterity, is it possible that they were somehow able to move these massive stone blocks utilizing some kind of unknown anti gravitic device or method, whatever, the result is nothing short of spectacular and perplexing at the same time.

[@cornwasher]

Thank you, this was the best filming of this site I've seen. In my mind this site shows the earlier Annunaki construction with huge perfectly cut stones including polygonal fitting of smaller stone above the foundation stone blocks. You're probably looking at two different periods of civilizations. The earlier period where the massive stone blocks were cut, hauled and placed by the men 36 feet tall and then a later group who were smaller and no longer had the level of technology and whose workers were only able to produce smaller and poorer fitting stones akin to Cyclopian wall rubble..... It is staggering to conceive of the epic construction program at work on this site.

[@penoge]

The statement, that demons build with this huge blocks also points to the Titans which after their defeat by the Olympians were called demons as well in Greece as in India. The Egypt name of the Titans was Netheru which came from Sanskrit and means Watchers. And Watchers is one of the names of the Nephilim (the fallen ones = from heaven to earth) in the old jewish literature, which are called Anunaki (they who came from heaven to earth) by the Babyloneans. This connections alone are a hint that the stories about them are history not fiction.

[@sailingaeolus]

How did you come to the conclusion "Egypt name of the Titans was Netheru"...? Many thanks.

[@penoge]

@@sailingaeolus Easy question. The 'History of Egypt' of Manetho in connection with the 'Histories' of Herodot tells so. Herodot writes that from the time the twelfe gods which included Herakles (therefore they are Olympians) replaced the eight ones (the Titans) until the time of Amasis were 17.000 years. The last of the eight gods is called Horus (meant is the older one, Haroeris), therefore they are Netheru.

what a great tour. Really had no idea it was as impressive as sites in Bolivia, Peru, Egypt, Jordan and more. If we could get a birds eye view, we could probably see some geometric symmetry to this. I visited an amazing place in Northern Poland that had huge boulders. Such places were part of a major power grid that had a very specific and useful purpose. More significance than just temples to gods. Pretty fascinating to consider if you haven't already. And search under the term of star forts/stations. They are everywhere on our realm.

Why not giants? How many thousands of years in the past, obvious in more ruins around the planet, and in caves, would suggest ancient inhabitants were much bigger than modern Earth beings. And such amazing technology that we (arrogant humans) can scarcely duplicate today. Thanks for the tour. I look forward to more. 😊

[@felixmakinda7689]

@@peterngeti9755 The Bible appears to have clues of answers to all questions we have but as you have highlighted, the way it is written creates more questions than answers. Take the story of The Fall of Babylon. Human beings become so advanced that they start building massive structures and even want to rival God. God decides to confuse them and they end up dispersing across the world. Lessons from the Bible - human beings were technologically advanced; spoke a similar language, dispersed. This might explain why all continents have pyramids and other structures that are not possible with the technologies we know or imagine existed. The architecture and craft appears to confirm that indeed human beings were connected, but dispersed with their great knowledge and skills.

What is insane to me is there is no rational theory for how these blocks were moved into place. We literally couldn't do it today. The ancients either poured concrete or they knew something massive that we have yet to figure out. This should be the most important question that gets answered first in my opinion. Someone has to solve this mystery or we can never understand these sites.

[@tylerdurden9920]

of course we can do it today. WE just need a lot of labor. Lol. Think of how much money 20,000 humans and work hours they can put in. I mean think of it this way. With human engineering today we can put new york or even tokyo on a platform 500 yards above the ocean. Lol. We can do ANYTHING. With that said society is used to buildings things small so we all can fit. "We literally couldn't do it today." saying this is just so absurd. You're telling me with all the labor and money in the world you couldn't do this? What the heck? lol. The problem we can't figure out how THEY did. What do you mean "we literally couldn't do it today? With the material we have what we know about science and numbers and ropes ect ect. We can take down mount everest and rebuild it somewhere else. I dont get what you mean man. lmfao we can literally build a tramway type system that will bring rocks from a mountain 1 mile high into the side down 6-10 miles away with a tramway. Do you know how absurd humans are? It's all about scaling up and money. The history of mankind if filled with holy wars. where everything dies. These massive blocks would have been destroyed if they could and they were made that big to survive humanities craziness. Lol. Sigh, it's amazing that people can't do this today. Try dragging 3000ton metal drums through mountains and snow with a few ox and men. Lol now that's tough. Not a massive project with 1000's of humans. Everything is about scale. Everything is about numbers. Counter weights. a lot of round objects. Oils. Ropes. I mean if 100 men can pull 100lbs each. That's 10,000 lbs. With the right ropes and system and technology and even using gravity and round objects to move things....you can push 100,000lbs with just 100 people. Now think of 500-1000 people. Lol i dont get how people continue to underestimate humanity and the things humans can do. My god. We can literally us AI to make a god right now that floats around through radio waves and lives in metal objects and even fluids as data. Like come on now. lololol. WE can turn earth into a straight up space ship moving across the galaxy if we wanted to using the human labor of billions and absorbing energy from the sun and using it as power to take in more matter to increase our earths size. Lol. It's just numbers. Think of the human labor it cost to build something like that today. That's why it's so hard to imagine. Cause when you build things for religion or the government. Numbers start to vanish cause you will do whatever it takes to get it done. For example world war 2. Do you know how much it cost the world in terms of money and life? lol. We could have build 100's of those pyramids with how much life and money was spent on ww2......

[@raymondparsley7442]

If the walls could talk... what a story they would tell! It would seem there must have been a counterbalancing process used. Clearly, "giants" is not the answer... It is a fascinating mystery.

[@jp7205]

I appreciate @MegalithomaniaUK for uploading this footage. I will be dedicating a lot of time to this site. The host of the video says these blocks weigh 400 Tons (800,000 lbs.) EACH. Many sceptics would say, "giants made these structures." Exactly what size giant could carry/move items of this weight? let alone 800 ton blocks. I'm almost certain the larger blocks are cut from the foundation of preexisting mountains. It's impossible for them not to be. Having an army of chiselers working for a decade seems more probable. There can be a layer of material spread over the blocks to give the look of uniformity. The smaller blocks can be lifted with pullies and counter weights. Insane video! thanks a bunch.

He explained in his books how the roman moved those impressive blocks. No mystery at all. Just a lot of dedication by smart people who used the same material ancient Egyptian did, or the french who moved the 230 tons of the obelisk from Louxor to Paris, through thousand kilometers of land and a sea : wood machines and rollers, ropes and many men. No that many men. Count Cadbury moved the most gigantic block ever, 1200 tons !, in only six weeks through 6 kilometers of a chaotic terrain and swamps, with only 64 men.
