Astonishing evidence for an ancient form of sophisticated machining into very hard stone can be seen on one of the artifacts found on the Ancient Egyptian site of Elephantine Island. After several visits to this incredible place, the significance of this particular aspect to the well-known granite ‘shrine’ finally hit home for me. Incontrovertible, and confirmed by a true expert in stone working, there is no way known that the subject of the video could be produced using primitive hand tools, it’s one of the best individual pieces of evidence for ancient advanced technology that I’ve ever seen.
Join us as we explore a little bit of the history of Elephantine Island, and dive into the details and implications of this recently uncovered aspect of the stonework there.
