[@claudemontezin911]

Thank you so much Brien! I have 17 years of property management, handyman and construction. I keep thinking practical questions, like Petra is very out of the way, Why live among so much rock? Protection and safety for the original occupants, comes to mind. The Biblical Lot and his two daughters found refuge there, although it seemed to have been abandoned even back then. As you pointed out, it all seems quite functional (you want to see "fancy" for no reason, go see Versailles). How did they feed themselves? It's easy to conceive that these long "water collection" troughs, way back when the climate was probably less arid, would easily collect enough to water plants and crops somewhere and anywhere in these nooks and crannies. 20:14 the entire bottom part is damaged. But by what? Not water; there is an angle to it. At 7:10 the columns are also marked by something. On either sides, the cliffs are also darkened superficially. 15:49 Wow. The bottom and top part of the facade are heavily "scraped off" but the middle was largely spared. Can't imagine this, being damaged by enemies using some tall scaffolding. Wonderful presentation, as always! I'll be definitely waiting for more from you. Cheers!

[@LofiCameron]

While I am not sure of the exact climate of the time, however I know for most of its time Egypt was mostly tropical without the massive sand dunes overtook it due to climate change, Petra in the video has grass in 2022, so I can imagine it was probably a lot more lively back in the day with farmland and ect

[@LofiCameron]

and you must think for the entire city to basically be fed by carved water channels and beautifully done, that they had to by literal death understand how to use and manipulate water, which hydroponics (basic version at least) near the city/inside at areas and their knowledge would have boosted their crops by a decent amount if you check other advanced water farming methods (mexican,asian) comes to mind

[@oftin_wong]

Petra was located at an important trade route intersection that no longer exists, they never grew crops ...(simple explanations are king)

How did they do that?? From 15:44 to 15:54 when you paned up, did someone come along and paste a giant Blue-Print on a mountain and say dig here just follow the lines and curves? Mind Blowing is Right!! Sure they had hundreds of thousands of workers but you can only get so many workers in one place at a time. Even in that room, only so many wheel barrels and donkey carts at a time can get in and through such a small door or window. Were the scratch marks on the wall Laser or something out of this world???

Why not mentioning that Petra is an arabic name built by al anbat arabic tribal Kingdom Same as Palmyra with Zenobia the arabic queen and warrior And many other sites Arabs lived here long time before roman came as occupiers Actually many famous arabs from syria ruled roman cities as Philip the arab or Julia doumna Supremacist white eurocentric mentality

please Mister Foerster make you extra long videos again, they are always so facinating and i cant get enough of watching those!. One day they will teach about you in schools all over the world! thank you very much,

[@anim8torfiddler871]

Thank you, Mr. Foerster. Another gorgeous video, jam packed with excellent views and insights. Knowing now about the vast underground CITIES like Derenkuyu in Türkiye, and the thousands of even better-known apartments and multi-room dwellings carved in the conical volcanic tuff hills of Cappadocia... Along with the countless European covered structures like the Grange in Ireland, all the Dolmens, "Temples" of Malta and Sicily ... I can't help wondering how many of those date to the periods when the Sun went through a chaotic period of violent instability, flaring and flashing, sending broiling blasts to sear and scorch the inner planets for maybe a decade or more. Doctor Anthony Peratt, after working with Los Alamos labs for decades, began to analyze Ancient Rock-wall Petroglyphs with the insights gained from studying high-energy Plasma Physics and the shapes that emerge from those energies. He has shown that many of the petroglyphs interpreted by archaeologists as Bird men and humans dancing with odd dots astride their torsos *_are in fact uncannily accurate depictions of the vast shimmering Energy Patterns that would have straddled the Sun's Darkened Disk, in the hours and days leading up to TITANIC Energy Blasts, that may have repeated in deadly cycles for months or even years._* "Orthodox" historians flinch at the idea that any story they do not control might have unfolded during the 300,000+ years of humanity's journey on this planet. They are terrified that knowledge might emerge which is not subject to their management and authority. Too Effing Bad. The universe doesn't give a Crap about their Pinky-Sworn Construct of history.

Thank you for all that you do, I thought I was losing my mind 7yrs ago and you helped me to know that I'm not crazy. There's just some things I could not have possibly learned in my 200+ semester units. My mother was an English teacher with a Masters as a Reading Specialist, and she can continue to think I'm crazy but there's a lot of us who know looking at the truth really means. The things I've witnessed in the last 7 years are not fully explainable by the things I learned as a scientist. A mind-blowing connection that I made after first coming across your videos was that my 10th grade physics teacher tried to explain to us how electricity actually comes in the ground when lightning strikes that makes a whole lot more sense now..,. It's the electrons that are crashing into the ground but it's the electromagnetic field that is coming out of the ground perpendicular to that.

The tool marks @15.35 are very intriguing, it really makes you wonder what kind of a tool would make those marks, it definitely has the appearance of some kind of mechanical tool, and not something hand held.

[@scottbreseke716]

I did a search, and evidently limestone can be dissolved by vinegar, but you might have to let it sit on the stone for up to a week. But I imagine that the vinegar, or other mild acid, could soften the top layer of stone enough to be able to take a claw tool and start scraping. For granite you'd need hydroflouric acid though.

[@wrlSivan16]

Maybe

[@aemonblack4932]

Can confirm. Muriatic acid will eat through cement if left sitting. Takes time, but if left sitting it will completely dissolve. The industrial machinery constantly breaks down from degradation from the acid

This city looks like it was Petrified, therefore Petra suits its name! The entire city looks like it was under flood debris for 10's or hundreds of thousands of years and due to erosion began to stick out of the faces of the debris material that got weathered down over many millennia. It may have been further excavated by the Nabateans and could go down 100's of feet. We may only be lookng at the very top of a city fully submerged in flood debris!

[@wrlSivan16]

Agree

[@amberandrews6842]

With bulk of the work being pre-flood. You can see by the erosion, it was sculpted first.

[@calenlight6817]

@@amberandrews6842 But possibly after as well, by greeks or romans who put facades of their style over the faces of the ancient structures.

[@steveevans946]

I agree. Rather than being dug out of the bedrock, it could be the uncovered remains of a city built tens, if not hundreds of thousands of years ago. In the UK, large sections of our coastline look like ancient construction/terra-forming. If it looks built, it probably is, once you grasp the possibility that human advanced civilisations have cycled over hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of years.

[@calenlight6817]

[@yvettekosta7994]

When you were in that large acoustic hall, what did you think of the odd marbled coloring of the vast flat ceiling as well as the upper back wall of the arches. Did you see those consistent tool marks there, as you pointed out on one wall? Because the ceiling looked very smooth, you say layered sandstone, but out of the pink, mauve, beige and gray, the black looked very oddly angular. Seaweed deposits? I understand that if stone is cut horizontally it's layers will look different from those cut vertically, but the archway wall is at a vertical angle from the ceiling and looks the same. Though both look very different from the rest of the walls and floor. And what does the weathered damage on the lower part of the facade look like to you? The columns are just crumbled off like they were in several feet of flowing water for repeated and long periods of time. I understand that this area was prone to severe flooding at certain times, and this was a big reason for the sites abandonment, because they couldn't keep up with the water chanel repair and flood control. Plus evidence of earth quake at the upper regions of cliffs surrounding the city where there was a lot of water management structural damage. Also, what are those square holes all in rows high up on the walls? Were they used to attach something? I don't see soot marks from torches! And lastly, the great acoustics as well as the design of the great hall makes me think of a temple or mosque where a leading voice would chant or sing and lead the gathering in a prayer chant. But why is the back of the hall fenced off so people can't examine the strange features in the arched alcoves closer ?!!?
