Hi guys. Today I want to talk about the tool marks on the world’s largest monolith, Yangshan
Monument. In my previous video, I provided evidence why I disagree with Chinese historians,
who state these monoliths were quarried in the early 15th Century. In this follow-up
video, I am going to compare the ancient tool marks at Yangshan, Baalbeck, Petra, India,
Greece and Italy with modern day machine marks, which raises the provocative question: Could
an industrial prehistory civilization have existed on the planet and created Yangshan
monument? What is considered “prehistory”? Prehistory
refers to the time from 3 million years ago, starting with the use of the first stone tools
up and until 5,300 yrs ago with the invention of writing by the Sumerians in Mesopotamia.
Let’s look at the 3 giant Yangshan blocks again, all located on a mountain near Nanjing.
One block is adjacent to the old quarry and the other two are close to each other but
outside the quarry. The head block has several openings with interesting
knobs, which remind us of the knobs seen at megalithic sites in Peru and Egypt. The long
body if standing u p would be taller than the Statue of Liberty the base is the largest
of all - bigger than a NBA court.
Continuing my research, I discovered there are two different tool marks on Yangshan blocks,
which I also found on other megalithic sites around the world. The first ones are these
long, slightly angled, sometimes almost straight grooves.
1. Baalbeck, home to two of the largest Roman temples: the Temple of Bacchus and the Temple
of Jupiter, have foundation stones weighing 300 and 800 tons each and several unfinished
monoliths including the stone of the pregnant woman, which weighs over 1 thousand tons.
Work probably began around 16 BC. The original method of construction remains an archeological
mystery.
Here are side-by side comparison photos between Yangshan block and Baalbeck foundation stone.
The striations are quite uniformed and parallel to each other. And the scale of these grooves
is beyond human ability for that time. It looks manufactured. Here are close-up shots
of the two. We clearly see the resemblance.
2. Petra, a great ancient city that lays half-hidden in the wind-blown landscape of Jordan, is
another treasured Unesco Heritage site. The area around Petra had been inhabited as early
as 7,000 BC. Petra is a very intriguing site where I discovered several different tool
marks. Here I am comparing the ones I believe to be similar to the ones we saw on the Yangshan
blocks. The striations are almost identical. Yangshan is limestone and Petra is sandstone.
Both are sedimentary and considered soft rock with a hardness at 4-5 on Mohs’ scale, with
granite being 6-7 and diamond being 10. Comparing Yangshan and Petra; the curved tool marks
are also identical. 3. Here is Yangshan block next to an old castle
in Greece built at least 2000 yrs ago. Notice the same straight grooves and ridges. There
are numerous other examples and these are just a sampling. If you are interested in
seeing other examples please send me a message.
Besides the long straight or slightly curved striations, there is another kind of tool
marks at Yangshan, which are shorter, curved, look organic, almost like scratches. We see
them mainly on the ceilings of the openings at the long body and the base.
4. In my research I found a cave in India with an unfinished ceiling, which shows very
similar tool marks. The caves at this site are otherwise highly polished; it is fortunate
we found one with an unfinished ceiling, so we can better understand the tool marks.
5. This one compares Yangshan with a cave in northern Italy which hasn’t be dated.
The shorter, curved, almost scratch-like marks on the ceiling are eerily identical. It is
interesting to see the striations are mostly used on the ceiling instead of the exterior.
It looks like different tools or different quarry methods had been used on ceilings
Now lets look at Yangshan tool marks next to modern day machine marks. The machines
I am showing here are fairly recent. We didn’t have them 50 years ago, which means the machine
striations are relatively new. Upon close inspection, the similarities are outstanding.
Notice the same striations. Today’s advanced mining machines create marks very much like
the ones we saw at Yangshan, Baalbeck, Petra and Greece. It is uncanny how similar they
are. Were Yangshan blocks created by prehistory machines? Ancient Chinese did not have this
type of machinery and for that matter no known civilization at that time did either. This
means other sites like Baalbeck and Petra may have a completely different undiscovered
history as well.
As I explained in my last video: These megalithic sites might be the most obvious proof that
our planet once had technology tens of thousands of years ago that in many ways rivals if not
surpasses modern day engineering.
Some might think these tool marks could come from hand tools such as chisels or pickaxes.
Let’s examine these hand tools. With chisels, precision cuts can be made.
We can see the masons positioned themselves pretty close to the stone and they can place
the chisels precisely. This explains why with chisels it is not easy to do a really long
continuous line because to be precise, you are using your elbow as an anchor and don't
have full-range movement with the arms. That is why chisels are best used for smaller-scaled
detailed stonework. However, I still don’t believe one can achieve evenly spaced striations
using chisels on stone. Imagine you have a spoon and an open carton of frozen ice cream.
Can you make the same evenly spaced scooping’s each time? Even if measured it with a ruler,
it is hard to do. And frozen ice cream can’t compare to stone.
Since the striations are much longer than what chisels can achieve, these tool marks
are not from chisels. How about pickaxes? With a pickaxe, a person can do a full swing
using their core as the anchor. Some may think pickaxes created these curved striations but
again this is wrong. I am unfamiliar with mining or quarrying with
pickaxes but I imagine it would be very difficult to place each strike so evenly and precisely,
like it shows here on Yangshan blocks and other sites. Have you ever tried to draw a
long straight line freehand, not with a ruler, and then draw 10 more lines that are parallel
to each other within close proximity? It is not easy. Now imagine you are using a pickaxe
instead of a pencil. With a pickaxe you need strength to swing it to make an indentation
on rock. Can all the strikes be parallel to each other and evenly spaced? Think of a professional
golfer swinging thousands of times with the same exact precision and the level of difficulty
that involves. With pickaxes you need to really swing hard to achieve the speed and power
to make an impact on stone. One may be able to create a smooth curved line on softer materials
such as clay but not on limestone or sandstone. We can see from this video, a pickaxe makes
an indentation on rock, but not a long line. With that being said, I believe to create
such precisely spaced patterns on stone on this scale with chisels or pickaxes is humanly
impossible and could only have been accomplished with advanced machines.
I propose that the Yangshan blocks, Baalbeck foundation stone and Petra, where we see machine
marks, were created with lost ancient machinery. These ancient sites were credited to be over
600 to 2000 years old. We know for a fact that there were no modern machines back then.
Here I want to quote Sherlock Holmes : “when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever
remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” So when was the last time there was technology
on par with current day? What was the advanced civilization before ours? Was it Atlantis?
Or the legendary lost world of Mu? Or perhaps a different lost civilization existed in Asia
yet to be named? The sites that shared similar tool marks with Yangshan, are located in different
regions in Asia, Middle East and Europe. Were they all built by the a prehistory global
civilization?
During my research, I found many so-called ancient quarries all around the world and
a lot of them share extraordinary similarities. In my next video, I will discuss Longyou Cave,
which is categorized as an ancient quarry (from what period?) with different but equally
intriguing tool marks, which I believe, are from advanced ancient Machinery as well. And
the same tool marks showed up on many ancient sites that you probably never heard of.
If you have any insights, please leave a comment. I would love to hear from you.
