When I was a child I remember reading in a newspaper ‘5000 year old spaceship found’. I have tried looking for that article but cannot find it now. I remember it to be 100% true and not a memory cuz until recently I had a paper-cut of the headline which I lost when moving to a different city for studies. Also, I believe it is too egoistic to think that just because we are really smart, ancient humans were dumb af. I mean we have 100s of pieces of evidence that point to them being extremely smart. The pyramids, this book u talked about, the gadget u mentioned, some cave paintings depicting extremely advance stuff. I’m not an expert but I’m sure Ive heard a few mythological stories talking about crystals or mirrors that were used in the stories to talk to other people 100s of KMs away. What if we are stuck with the language and all those crystals or mirrors are nothing but devices that can videocall? There are so many texts and illustrations that are considered fictions and mythological fictions just because we think the things they mention shouldn’t exist in ancient times. But what if its just a language difference but ancient humans were almost as advance or even better than us? There are mentions of spaceships in all kinds of mythologies, mentions of advanced gadgets too. Certain mythologies even say that the life on earth works in a cyclic way where after a certain amount of development, the life on it ends due to whatever reasons like diseases or astrological phenomenons. This is also believed to be true in modern world. There is a theory on how and why the most dominant species on the planet dies in a cyclic fashion after certain time. Considering ancient people stupid or not capable of doing what we can do today is utterly egoistic and ignorant imo. We dont even have 1-2% of proper documented history of our world since we humans evolved here. How can we just pass something old as a prank, impossible or too advanced to exist after that percentage of factual knowledge of the past?

Well as we know that we have come a long way from where we began, advancing in technology and every other aspect, it is very much safe to assume that people weren’t that smart thousands of years ago. However there are exceptions like Nikola Tesla and Leonardo Da Vinci who were way ahead of their time. So it is very much possible that there was a DaVinci thousands of years ago who was far far ahead of his time and invented these artifacts.

I absolutely LOVE videos like this, but at the same time they are infuriating. I enjoy the history and the interesting finds but I’m dying to know what they are really all about.

[@StoryWolf]

I know that this is a very old video but a thought occurred to me while watching this about the manuscript. They state that the carbon dating doesn't match too far back for it to be further than the 18th century. Now this is a theory and it might be a stretch, but what if this manuscript isn't the original? Thoughy2 says there are no correction errors in the pages. In that case it sounds like it might have been copied by a source. Now two ideas come to mind here. Either this book was once stored in the Vatican, where they transcribed some old texts that have collected and it somehow ended up in an auction. Or, this could be a copy from a surviving remnant of the library of Alexandria. It was told that this library had many manuscripts and when a new manuscript was donated they would make a copy and send the copy with the donator and keep the original. Now I am not saying that this is one of those original copies, but what if it is one of the ones that is a copy of the copy. Thay could explain the age and why we don't have record of the language. Because if it was one used by Alexandria, thinking if they used a certain code when transcribing or if there was an ancient language that was lost, this could explain why we don't know about it. But like i said its just a theory.

@Chris Bailey there would be nothing to teach if somebody didn't discover or experience first. In today's society everything is based on learning from somebody else, but in order to get here, we had different people, directly solving their own problems. And even so, mathematics are very ancient, who's to say certain civilisations, if left alone and with a different predominant values wouldn't be able to make great inventions. After all, whatever inventions have been made in history that we recorded, and how many geniuses appear throughout history, has a random factor to it. It isn't too late or too early for something. Also, the world today is way more in synch than it used to, civilisations wouldn't even know of each other sometimes, and would be very different.

[@artorhen]

@Chris Bailey I am not arguing that Judaism didn't hold people back. But we didn't have a good connection across the world as people and we don't really know if there were other civilisations that simply never came across Judaism. Or maybe it could even be civilisations that were scorn by Judaism. At the same time, Judaism did create a sense of order and morality in a time where you couldn't convince most people of certain concepts. And there is no point being angry about the past as it is simply going to be the same story of how we got this far, that doesn't mean that we can't do something about the present and the future. And in the end it doesn't matter if we get sooner or later to something, even that doesn't mean that the tables never turn in the long run if hipotetically we met a more advanced species.

[@Szolrykor]

@Darrin Robinson Before the Roman Empire, Alexandria was controlled by Greeks. Before that it was controlled by Persians. Before that it was the Assyrians. I'm asking you because I understand the things you're saying as untrue. They might be untrue, or I could just be wrong, but how am I supposed to know without asking more about it and how you know it yourself? And why am I your open enemy? Because you are hostile to me or do you think I'm hostile to you? I question Jesus, Muhammad and every Abrahamic figure. They're foreign to me and my people. I question every other foreign figure as well. Do I have that in common with black supremacists? And I know all about the certain people with the high paying jobs in my country, don't worry. I imagine we call them different things though.

[@Szolrykor]

​@Darrin Robinson What was the chain reaction the Greeks caused? 200 years before Alexander, Egypt had already been conquered by the Persians. Several centuries before that, the Phoenicians established the colonies that became Carthage along a much bigger part of Northwest Africa. I'm not one of the people who needs someone European to say something's true before I go with it. There's a ton of history in the world that Europe wasn't involved in so we have to use accounts of it from the people who were. But it doesn't mean not scrutinizing those accounts and everything else at our disposal. It's perfectly possible that enough things were lost or hidden that we got the wrong idea, but how do you come to that conclusion without finding what was lost and verifying it the same way? My country is America. What do you mean about undesirable elements?

[@Szolrykor]

@Darrin Robinson Would you have to prove anything anywhere? Nothing special about the internet, that I can see. Of course the name Egypt would be different than what they called themselves, they spoke a different language. Africa is also a name given by Europeans, so it doesn't mean much. What are the facts about humanity not always having a war mentality? We've found evidence of humans battling each other that dates back longer than the evidence of pretty much any other human activity. We also see animals and nature in general waging war all the time. From lions all the way down to single-cell organisms. Why should it need to be introduced? I haven't heard of these books, but I can check them out. Are they just talking about these topics in general or also about the proofs for them? And like I said, I'm American. If you mean ancestrally, then England. Who/what's your common enemy?

I think the language is a self invented one. The author created a language which only he knows how to read, sounds extremely difficult, but not impossible. And frankly it has a higher probability than the alien one.

[@lucamasri4617]

If the language was created by a person, it would of had to have some sort of logic behind it so it could be read by him or anybody else he had wanted it to be read by. (whats the point of writing this down with such precision if you can just remember it). Computers would be able to easily solve any logical algorithm created by a human. So the book is either written by some sort of extra terrestrial being, some sort of super advanced computer or even human that is smarter than any computer or person we have today. OR was created in extreme gibberish with no logical algorithm in which only the man/woman who created the book can understand which, as i mentioned before, would be extremely counter intuitive, inefficient and all in all a waste of time. To me a smart extra terrestrial would be a rather high probability considering all of the strange technology and buildings built many many years before they should of been. Another cool idea however would be if life on earth used to be many times smarter than we are now but discovered something that would've caused devastating effects so they figured out a way to restore everything and let humanity restart. However they left a few relics behind to give humanity as we know it a little bit of a kick start.

Latin Ace We could build the Great Pyramid today and it wouldn’t require aliens, just like it didn’t back in ancient Egypt. As impressive as the Great Pyramid is, its engineering problems are known and solvable. Sure, a couple of dim-witted scientists in a NOVA television special weren’t up to the task, which only shows they weren’t up to the task. Engineers have articulated in great detail how the pyramid could have been built without modern machinery. Others have proposed that the pyramid blocks were fabricated ancient concrete. Scholars of Egyptian engineering are well informed in Egyptian construction methods, including the pyramids.And isn’t it odd how ancient astronaut theorists never seem to talk about the failed pyramid projects, like the pyramid of Huni. Maybe the aliens were on vacation for that one. And also the Bent Pyramid and the Step Pyramid of Djoser, which was built in stages after altering the non-pyramid burial mastaba style. These are all examples of human engineering, the Egyptians learned how to build pyramids gradually, trying new techniques and learning from failures. Pyramid engineering evolved through various transitions. The pyramids themselves demonstrate this quite clearly. To say they needed alien help is just insulting.

The clockwork Artifact probably is something lost in to time. The ancient world had many technologies seemingly beyond their time, such Roman concrete that we still can't replicate. It's workings aren't as bizarre when you think that the ancient Greeks figured out the passage of the planets etc. The Voynich manuscript is also very interesting. I doubt it's a cypher, as we'd have easily cracked it. And although a conlang is a reasonable explanation, nerds cracked Tolkien's Elvish (arguably the most complex conlang we know of) before he'd even released Return of the King. But it's possible. A language we haven't seen before is actually not that unlikely, though. There is much we don't know. Still a long way to go before aliens are confirmed as the cause, though. Extraordinary explanations require extraordinary evidence. And aliens is usually blamed when we don't know. Like, the pyramids and stone henge were certainly not aliens. Really cool works of ancient architecture. But not aliens.
