00:00:00,934 --> 00:00:02,334
NARRATOR: Lasers...
2
00:00:02,402 --> 00:00:03,768
with the power to cut through
3
00:00:03,837 --> 00:00:06,204
solid stone.
4
00:00:06,272 --> 00:00:08,264
Acoustic chambers...
5
00:00:08,341 --> 00:00:09,673
that enable interplanetary
6
00:00:09,743 --> 00:00:11,939
communication.
7
00:00:12,012 --> 00:00:14,106
And architecture...
8
00:00:14,180 --> 00:00:16,115
designed to harness cosmic
9
00:00:16,182 --> 00:00:18,378
energy.
10
00:00:18,451 --> 00:00:20,352
Are these dramatic examples of
11
00:00:20,420 --> 00:00:23,948
our own modern-day technology?
12
00:00:24,024 --> 00:00:25,458
Or are they examples of
13
00:00:25,525 --> 00:00:27,687
astounding achievements used
14
00:00:27,761 --> 00:00:30,060
in the ancient past?
15
00:00:30,130 --> 00:00:31,291
BRIEN FOERSTER: The only way
16
00:00:31,364 --> 00:00:32,457
that these huge cubes of stone
17
00:00:32,532 --> 00:00:34,125
were removed from the mountain
18
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,396
is by some kind of laser-like
19
00:00:36,469 --> 00:00:39,303
instrument able to liquefy rock.
20
00:00:39,372 --> 00:00:40,806
MICHAEL BORDEN: These temples
21
00:00:40,874 --> 00:00:42,034
were used to communicate with
22
00:00:42,042 --> 00:00:43,806
the gods and resonate with
23
00:00:43,877 --> 00:00:46,039
cosmic energies.
24
00:00:46,112 --> 00:00:47,136
BILL BIRNES: People see this
25
00:00:47,213 --> 00:00:49,580
as an example of help given to
26
00:00:49,649 --> 00:00:52,642
an earthly civilization by...
27
00:00:52,719 --> 00:00:54,551
ancient aliens.
28
00:00:54,621 --> 00:00:55,987
NARRATOR: Millions of people
29
00:00:56,056 --> 00:00:57,991
around the world believe we have
30
00:00:58,058 --> 00:00:59,492
been visited in the past by
31
00:00:59,559 --> 00:01:02,256
extraterrestrial beings.
32
00:01:02,328 --> 00:01:04,991
What if it were true?
33
00:01:05,065 --> 00:01:07,432
Did ancient aliens really help
34
00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:09,731
to shape our history?
35
00:01:09,803 --> 00:01:11,738
And could the proof be found by
36
00:01:11,805 --> 00:01:13,171
examining the construction
37
00:01:13,239 --> 00:01:14,673
methods of our planet's ancient
38
00:01:14,741 --> 00:01:17,734
engineers?

42
00:01:50,944 --> 00:01:52,105
NARRATOR: Peru,
43
00:01:52,178 --> 00:01:53,806
South America.
44
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,873
The Andes Mountains.
45
00:01:56,950 --> 00:01:59,647
9,000 feet above sea level, in
46
00:01:59,719 --> 00:02:02,154
an area the Inca people once
47
00:02:02,222 --> 00:02:04,782
called the Sacred Valley, lie
48
00:02:04,858 --> 00:02:06,383
the ruins of the ancient city of
49
00:02:06,459 --> 00:02:09,054
Ollantaytambo.
50
00:02:09,129 --> 00:02:11,064
Once serving as both a temple
51
00:02:11,131 --> 00:02:13,396
and a fortress, mainstream
52
00:02:13,466 --> 00:02:16,061
historians claim Ollantaytambo
53
00:02:16,136 --> 00:02:19,573
was built around 1440 AD by the
54
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,575
Inca Emperor Pachacuti.
55
00:02:22,642 --> 00:02:24,167
But some scholars believe
56
00:02:24,244 --> 00:02:26,406
Ollantaytambo was built upon the
57
00:02:26,479 --> 00:02:30,075
ruins of a far older city... one
58
00:02:30,150 --> 00:02:34,417
whose origins remain unknown.
59
00:02:34,487 --> 00:02:35,352
FOERSTER: The gate
60
00:02:35,421 --> 00:02:37,083
behind me is called the Gateway
61
00:02:37,157 --> 00:02:38,489
of the Gods, and it was built
62
00:02:38,558 --> 00:02:40,254
several thousand years before
63
00:02:40,326 --> 00:02:43,091
the Inca arrived here.
64
00:02:43,163 --> 00:02:45,098
It was built by a culture we
65
00:02:45,165 --> 00:02:47,100
call the Urin Pacha.
66
00:02:47,167 --> 00:02:48,367
We give them that name because
67
00:02:48,434 --> 00:02:51,097
we have no idea who they were,
68
00:02:51,171 --> 00:02:52,605
where they came from or where
69
00:02:52,672 --> 00:02:57,110
they went.
70
00:02:57,177 --> 00:02:59,510
It's clearly evident that the
71
00:02:59,579 --> 00:03:02,276
earliest parts of Ollantaytambo
72
00:03:02,348 --> 00:03:04,840
dates to at least 12,000 years
73
00:03:04,918 --> 00:03:10,949
old, if not older.
74
00:03:11,024 --> 00:03:12,117
JESUS GAMARRA (translated):
75
00:03:12,192 --> 00:03:13,626
From the research I have been
76
00:03:13,693 --> 00:03:15,389
able to determine, this was
77
00:03:15,461 --> 00:03:19,125
built by the Arak civilization.
78
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:21,134
The Arak people are as ancient
79
00:03:21,201 --> 00:03:23,466
as what would be the equivalent
80
00:03:23,536 --> 00:03:28,975
to Adam or the first humans.
81
00:03:29,042 --> 00:03:30,408
NARRATOR: But how could the
82
00:03:30,476 --> 00:03:32,138
earliest humans on earth have
83
00:03:32,212 --> 00:03:33,703
produced such astonishing
84
00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:36,409
stonework, with massive
85
00:03:36,482 --> 00:03:38,474
interlocking blocks precisely
86
00:03:38,551 --> 00:03:41,146
fitted together?
87
00:03:41,221 --> 00:03:42,917
Or have constructed aqueducts
88
00:03:42,989 --> 00:03:44,548
and irrigation systems that
89
00:03:44,624 --> 00:03:47,924
still function today?
90
00:03:47,994 --> 00:03:49,826
Or have moved and set colossal
91
00:03:49,896 --> 00:03:52,161
stones of granite, each weighing
92
00:03:52,232 --> 00:03:57,000
more than 50 tons?
93
00:03:57,070 --> 00:03:58,663
ANDREW COLLINS: Ollantaytambo
94
00:03:58,738 --> 00:04:02,175
is a mountain fortress.
95
00:04:02,242 --> 00:04:04,677
It's renowned specifically for
96
00:04:04,744 --> 00:04:07,612
the incredible-sized blocks that
97
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,842
were used in its construction,
98
00:04:09,916 --> 00:04:12,181
most particularly those that are
99
00:04:12,252 --> 00:04:13,845
found on its highest level and
100
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,354
the highest point on this
101
00:04:15,421 --> 00:04:16,912
mountain.
102
00:04:16,990 --> 00:04:18,925
There are six of these
103
00:04:18,992 --> 00:04:23,930
positioned in a line, and they
104
00:04:23,997 --> 00:04:25,966
were transported from another
105
00:04:26,032 --> 00:04:28,194
mountain where, the source says,
106
00:04:28,268 --> 00:04:30,635
across a plain, across a river
107
00:04:30,703 --> 00:04:33,195
and then up the mountain.
108
00:04:33,273 --> 00:04:34,366
And, of course, the biggest
109
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,204
mystery is, how the hell were
110
00:04:36,276 --> 00:04:37,972
they not only able to cut these
111
00:04:38,044 --> 00:04:41,208
things but to move them up
112
00:04:41,281 --> 00:04:42,305
this mountain?
113
00:04:42,382 --> 00:04:43,315
STEPHEN VANDER HART: In
114
00:04:43,383 --> 00:04:44,612
modern day, if we were gonna
115
00:04:44,684 --> 00:04:45,947
move a 50-ton boulder, we would
116
00:04:46,019 --> 00:04:47,544
have to assemble a special
117
00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:49,213
transportation unit
118
00:04:49,289 --> 00:04:50,882
consisting of steel girders,
119
00:04:50,957 --> 00:04:54,291
several axles, hydraulic jacks.
120
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:55,623
Moving it up the hill, we'd
121
00:04:55,695 --> 00:04:57,220
probably have to change the face
122
00:04:57,297 --> 00:04:58,492
of the hill...
123
00:04:58,564 --> 00:05:01,295
build a road, maybe anchor it,
124
00:05:01,367 --> 00:05:02,733
using some kind of cable-and-
125
00:05:02,802 --> 00:05:04,464
pulley system... several
126
00:05:04,537 --> 00:05:05,835
different options, none of which
127
00:05:05,905 --> 00:05:07,305
would be available to the
128
00:05:07,373 --> 00:05:10,741
people who lived way back then.
129
00:05:10,810 --> 00:05:12,244
FOERSTER: These six giant
130
00:05:12,312 --> 00:05:15,009
slabs of red granite have stood
131
00:05:15,081 --> 00:05:16,743
here for thousands of years
132
00:05:16,816 --> 00:05:18,341
because of the beautiful
133
00:05:18,418 --> 00:05:21,411
engineering of the ancients.
134
00:05:21,487 --> 00:05:23,353
If there's a major earthquake,
135
00:05:23,423 --> 00:05:25,324
these shims can ride up and
136
00:05:25,391 --> 00:05:26,825
down, absorbing the shock of the
137
00:05:26,893 --> 00:05:28,691
earthquake, and that keeps the
138
00:05:28,761 --> 00:05:31,754
giant slabs in place.
139
00:05:31,831 --> 00:05:33,356
The ability to fit perfectly-
140
00:05:33,433 --> 00:05:35,265
fitting stones of several tons
141
00:05:35,335 --> 00:05:37,497
in weight together so that a
142
00:05:37,570 --> 00:05:39,095
single human hair can't fit in
143
00:05:39,172 --> 00:05:40,936
between them is not a question
144
00:05:41,007 --> 00:05:44,102
of sweat or man-hours,
145
00:05:44,177 --> 00:05:52,177
it's a question of technology.
146
00:05:53,019 --> 00:05:54,112
NARRATOR: Mainstream
147
00:05:54,187 --> 00:05:56,383
archaeologists claim the dense,
148
00:05:56,456 --> 00:05:58,891
hard granite was cut and shaped
149
00:05:58,958 --> 00:06:01,120
by means of stone or bronze
150
00:06:01,194 --> 00:06:02,958
tools.
151
00:06:03,029 --> 00:06:05,294
But evidence of such tools has
152
00:06:05,365 --> 00:06:07,960
never been found at the site.
153
00:06:08,034 --> 00:06:10,299
And stranger still is the means
154
00:06:10,370 --> 00:06:12,305
by which the mammoth rocks are
155
00:06:12,372 --> 00:06:14,967
bonded into place, as if fused
156
00:06:15,041 --> 00:06:17,306
together by an unknown form of
157
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:21,144
energy.
158
00:06:21,214 --> 00:06:22,375
JASON MARTELL: it's almost as
159
00:06:22,448 --> 00:06:23,711
if two stones were leaned
160
00:06:23,783 --> 00:06:25,308
together and they infused it
161
00:06:25,385 --> 00:06:26,978
with some type of high-radiation
162
00:06:27,053 --> 00:06:28,385
beam or a laser that would then
163
00:06:28,454 --> 00:06:29,649
fuse the rocks together.
164
00:06:29,722 --> 00:06:31,156
They could then stack a third
165
00:06:31,224 --> 00:06:32,556
rock and create another fused
166
00:06:32,625 --> 00:06:33,991
area.
167
00:06:34,060 --> 00:06:35,392
There is no explanation for how
168
00:06:35,461 --> 00:06:36,929
they had the ability to create
169
00:06:36,996 --> 00:06:38,396
such a high heat source and
170
00:06:38,464 --> 00:06:40,057
fuse these rocks in such an
171
00:06:40,133 --> 00:06:43,331
intricate fashion.
172
00:06:43,403 --> 00:06:44,837
NARRATOR: Further evidence of
173
00:06:44,904 --> 00:06:46,600
the mysterious methods used by
174
00:06:46,672 --> 00:06:48,732
ancient craftsmen can be found
175
00:06:48,808 --> 00:06:51,573
nearby... at the Temple of
176
00:06:51,644 --> 00:06:54,113
the Condor.
177
00:06:54,180 --> 00:06:56,672
Here, enormous slabs of andesite
178
00:06:56,749 --> 00:06:59,116
stone were quarried from what is
179
00:06:59,185 --> 00:07:00,517
known as "The Wall of Living
180
00:07:00,586 --> 00:07:01,952
Rock."
181
00:07:02,021 --> 00:07:03,011
FOERSTER: The Temple of the
182
00:07:03,089 --> 00:07:06,355
Condor is curious because we
183
00:07:06,426 --> 00:07:08,361
find huge cube-like sections of
184
00:07:08,428 --> 00:07:10,761
stone... andesite, which is very
185
00:07:10,830 --> 00:07:12,594
hard... have been removed from
186
00:07:12,665 --> 00:07:14,429
the mountain with such accuracy
187
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:16,025
that we can't find a scratch in
188
00:07:16,102 --> 00:07:17,764
the surface.
189
00:07:17,837 --> 00:07:20,363
The corners also are not sharp.
190
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:21,640
They're perfectly rounded, and
191
00:07:21,707 --> 00:07:23,141
no one can explain how this
192
00:07:23,209 --> 00:07:26,111
could have been achieved.
193
00:07:26,179 --> 00:07:27,379
GIORGIO TSOUKALOS: The rock

00:07:27,447 --> 00:07:29,541
surface looks rough, but when
195
00:07:29,615 --> 00:07:32,107
you touch it, it feels as smooth
196
00:07:32,185 --> 00:07:35,553
as a bathroom mirror, which
197
00:07:35,621 --> 00:07:37,556
means some type of a
198
00:07:37,623 --> 00:07:40,218
vitrification process was used.
199
00:07:40,293 --> 00:07:42,057
And at the bottom of where this
200
00:07:42,128 --> 00:07:45,462
alcove was cut out, we can see a
201
00:07:45,531 --> 00:07:47,625
crisscross pattern.
202
00:07:47,700 --> 00:07:48,998
And in my opinion,
203
00:07:49,068 --> 00:07:52,732
they are actually saw marks.
204
00:07:52,805 --> 00:07:55,400
To me, this pattern is
205
00:07:55,475 --> 00:07:58,411
irrefutable proof for ancient
206
00:07:58,478 --> 00:08:01,175
machining.
207
00:08:01,247 --> 00:08:02,408
ERICH VON DANIKEN:
208
00:08:02,482 --> 00:08:03,643
Prehistoric tools would never
209
00:08:03,716 --> 00:08:04,581
work.
210
00:08:04,650 --> 00:08:07,415
You see, Ollantaytambo is mostly
211
00:08:07,487 --> 00:08:09,581
made out of andesite.
212
00:08:09,655 --> 00:08:11,487
To cut andesite, you need
213
00:08:11,557 --> 00:08:12,820
something which is harder
214
00:08:12,892 --> 00:08:14,918
than andesite.
215
00:08:14,994 --> 00:08:16,115
You could use a diamond, but
216
00:08:16,162 --> 00:08:18,427
there was no tool in Stone Age
217
00:08:18,498 --> 00:08:21,161
time to cut these rocks, so
218
00:08:21,234 --> 00:08:22,668
it must have been an
219
00:08:22,735 --> 00:08:24,761
extraterrestrial tool.
220
00:08:24,837 --> 00:08:26,037
NARRATOR: Might the ancient
221
00:08:26,072 --> 00:08:28,439
engineers of Ollantaytambo
222
00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:30,443
really have used tools acquired
223
00:08:30,510 --> 00:08:32,945
from otherworldly sources, as
224
00:08:33,012 --> 00:08:34,674
ancient astronaut theorists
225
00:08:34,747 --> 00:08:36,875
contend?
226
00:08:36,949 --> 00:08:38,713
Perhaps clues can be found by
227
00:08:38,784 --> 00:08:41,219
examining the earliest creation
228
00:08:41,287 --> 00:08:43,847
myths of the Andes Mountains.
229
00:08:43,923 --> 00:08:46,552
In them, the ancient ancestors,
230
00:08:46,626 --> 00:08:48,857
or founders, were described as
231
00:08:48,928 --> 00:08:51,124
a brother and sister... referred
232
00:08:51,197 --> 00:08:53,962
to as "Children of the Sun."
233
00:08:54,033 --> 00:08:56,468
Sent by the "Sun God," these
234
00:08:56,536 --> 00:08:58,562
mysterious beings arrived on
235
00:08:58,638 --> 00:09:00,539
Earth with something described
236
00:09:00,606 --> 00:09:07,479
as a golden wedge.
237
00:09:07,547 --> 00:09:08,742
DAVID CHILDRESS: Was this
238
00:09:08,814 --> 00:09:10,476
golden wedge some sort of
239
00:09:10,550 --> 00:09:13,486
handheld device that could cut
240
00:09:13,553 --> 00:09:15,988
stone, and even possibly,
241
00:09:16,055 --> 00:09:18,047
levitate the giant blocks into
242
00:09:18,124 --> 00:09:19,490
place?
243
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,824
If the golden wedge used by the
244
00:09:21,894 --> 00:09:24,557
Children of the Sun was really
245
00:09:24,630 --> 00:09:27,498
some kind of high-tech device
246
00:09:27,567 --> 00:09:30,503
for cutting stone or levitating
247
00:09:30,570 --> 00:09:32,334
stone, it would probably have
248
00:09:32,405 --> 00:09:33,498
been given to them by
249
00:09:33,573 --> 00:09:37,169
extraterrestrials.
250
00:09:37,243 --> 00:09:38,768
TSOUKALOS: The fact that
251
00:09:38,844 --> 00:09:41,780
Ollantaytambo specifically has
252
00:09:41,847 --> 00:09:43,748
this story about this golden
253
00:09:43,816 --> 00:09:46,513
wedge leads me to think that
254
00:09:46,586 --> 00:09:48,612
some type of extraterrestrial
255
00:09:48,688 --> 00:09:50,953
activity took place there
256
00:09:51,023 --> 00:09:53,185
thousands and thousands of years
257
00:09:53,259 --> 00:09:54,522
ago.
258
00:09:54,594 --> 00:09:57,029
And that some type of
259
00:09:57,096 --> 00:09:59,190
sophisticated extraterrestrial
260
00:09:59,265 --> 00:10:01,598
technology was used in order to
261
00:10:01,667 --> 00:10:04,535
achieve some of those amazing
262
00:10:04,604 --> 00:10:06,800
feats of engineering that we can
263
00:10:06,872 --> 00:10:11,606
see at Ollantaytambo today.
264
00:10:11,677 --> 00:10:13,145
BIRNES: What you can't
265
00:10:13,212 --> 00:10:16,649
explain is the moving of 50-ton
266
00:10:16,716 --> 00:10:19,948
stones up the sheer face of a
267
00:10:20,019 --> 00:10:22,386
cliff to create the walls of the
268
00:10:22,455 --> 00:10:23,616
fortress.
269
00:10:23,689 --> 00:10:26,557
That, in and of itself, required
270
00:10:26,626 --> 00:10:28,561
more than cranes, more than
271
00:10:28,628 --> 00:10:31,564
lifts, more than scaffolds.
272
00:10:31,631 --> 00:10:33,896
It required something like an
273
00:10:33,966 --> 00:10:36,731
anti-gravitational device, or a
274
00:10:36,802 --> 00:10:38,896
tractor beam to lift that much
275
00:10:38,971 --> 00:10:42,567
stone that high.
276
00:10:42,642 --> 00:10:44,838
That's why people see this as an
277
00:10:44,910 --> 00:10:46,902
example of help given to an
278
00:10:46,979 --> 00:10:50,245
earthly civilization by ancient
279
00:10:50,316 --> 00:10:50,816
aliens.
280
00:10:57,657 --> 00:10:58,750
NARRATOR: Do the incredible
281
00:10:58,824 --> 00:11:00,190
accomplishments of the early
282
00:11:00,259 --> 00:11:02,251
people of the Andes Mountains
283
00:11:02,328 --> 00:11:04,661
really provide proof that early
284
00:11:04,730 --> 00:11:06,665
man was in contact with
285
00:11:06,732 --> 00:11:08,826
otherworldly beings?
286
00:11:08,901 --> 00:11:12,599
If so, wouldn't there be even
287
00:11:12,672 --> 00:11:15,369
more incredible evidence?
288
00:11:15,441 --> 00:11:17,672
There are those who believe such
289
00:11:17,743 --> 00:11:20,372
evidence does exist, hidden
290
00:11:20,446 --> 00:11:21,607
within the ruins of a
291
00:11:21,681 --> 00:11:28,315
Mesoamerican metropolis.
292
00:11:28,387 --> 00:11:29,821
NARRATOR: Central Mexico.
293
00:11:29,889 --> 00:11:32,154
35 miles northeast of Mexico
294
00:11:32,224 --> 00:11:34,625
City.
295
00:11:34,694 --> 00:11:37,823
Here in a highlands plateau,
296
00:11:37,897 --> 00:11:39,991
lies the enormous archeological
297
00:11:40,066 --> 00:11:42,001
site of the ancient city of
298
00:11:42,068 --> 00:11:45,835
Teotihuacán.
299
00:11:45,905 --> 00:11:48,841
Established around 100 B.C., and
300
00:11:48,908 --> 00:11:51,503
lasting until its fall between
301
00:11:51,577 --> 00:11:52,840
the seventh and eighth
302
00:11:52,912 --> 00:11:55,848
centuries, Teotihuacán was one
303
00:11:55,915 --> 00:11:57,178
of the largest cities in the
304
00:11:57,249 --> 00:11:59,582
ancient world, with over 150,000
305
00:11:59,652 --> 00:12:01,985
inhabitants at its peak.
306
00:12:02,054 --> 00:12:03,579
DAVID CHEETHAM, PH.D: When
307
00:12:03,656 --> 00:12:05,249
you enter this city, you're
308
00:12:05,324 --> 00:12:08,021
immediately struck by sort of
309
00:12:08,094 --> 00:12:10,256
that modern layout of the city.
310
00:12:10,329 --> 00:12:12,195
You have a Street of the Dead
311
00:12:12,264 --> 00:12:15,359
that goes for miles, along which
312
00:12:15,434 --> 00:12:16,868
you have all of the major
313
00:12:16,936 --> 00:12:19,371
ceremonial architecture,
314
00:12:19,438 --> 00:12:21,100
including some of the largest
315
00:12:21,173 --> 00:12:22,436
buildings ever erected in the
316
00:12:22,508 --> 00:12:24,875
New World.
317
00:12:24,944 --> 00:12:26,037
NARRATOR: According to
318
00:12:26,112 --> 00:12:28,104
scholars, the advanced design of
319
00:12:28,180 --> 00:12:31,275
Teotihuacán suggests that
320
00:12:31,350 --> 00:12:33,216
ancient builders had knowledge,
321
00:12:33,285 --> 00:12:35,720
not only of architecture, but of
322
00:12:35,788 --> 00:12:37,279
complex mathematical and
323
00:12:37,356 --> 00:12:40,383
astronomical sciences.
324
00:12:40,459 --> 00:12:43,019
From the air, the city's layout
325
00:12:43,095 --> 00:12:45,291
strangely resembles a computer
326
00:12:45,364 --> 00:12:47,390
circuit board with two large
327
00:12:47,466 --> 00:12:49,401
processor chips... the Sun
328
00:12:49,468 --> 00:12:55,897
Pyramid and the Moon Pyramid.
329
00:12:55,975 --> 00:12:58,911
Researchers have also found
330
00:12:58,978 --> 00:13:00,071
numerous and remarkable
331
00:13:00,146 --> 00:13:01,910
similarities to the Great
332
00:13:01,981 --> 00:13:06,385
Pyramids of Egypt.
333
00:13:06,452 --> 00:13:07,977
PHILIP COPPENS: When we look
334
00:13:08,053 --> 00:13:09,146
at these buildings, we find the
335
00:13:09,221 --> 00:13:10,382
same mathematics incorporated
336
00:13:10,456 --> 00:13:11,924
into them than what we find in
337
00:13:11,991 --> 00:13:13,084
the Great Pyramid and the
338
00:13:13,159 --> 00:13:14,252
surrounding pyramids of the
339
00:13:14,326 --> 00:13:15,089
Giza Plateau.
340
00:13:15,161 --> 00:13:16,925
ARLAN ANDREWS, PH.D.: The
341
00:13:16,996 --> 00:13:20,091
Great Pyramid of Khufu at Giza
342
00:13:20,166 --> 00:13:21,498
and the Sun Pyramid at
343
00:13:21,567 --> 00:13:24,093
Teotihuacán apparently have
344
00:13:24,170 --> 00:13:25,570
about the same base, almost 750
345
00:13:25,638 --> 00:13:27,937
feet square.
346
00:13:28,007 --> 00:13:29,942
TSOUKALOS: The base perimeter
347
00:13:30,009 --> 00:13:32,171
of the Pyramid of the Sun is
348
00:13:32,244 --> 00:13:34,679
four Pi times its height.
349
00:13:34,747 --> 00:13:38,013
In Giza, it's two pi times its
350
00:13:38,083 --> 00:13:39,449
height.
351
00:13:39,518 --> 00:13:41,111
Essentially, the Pyramid of the
352
00:13:41,187 --> 00:13:44,419
Sun is exactly half as tall as
353
00:13:44,490 --> 00:13:47,949
the Pyramid of Giza.
354
00:13:48,027 --> 00:13:50,519
COPPENS: Teotihuacán is
355
00:13:50,596 --> 00:13:52,531
created according to a specific
356
00:13:52,598 --> 00:13:53,964
layout.
357
00:13:54,033 --> 00:13:55,626
The Temple of the Sun, the
358
00:13:55,701 --> 00:13:57,795
Temple of the Moon, and the
359
00:13:57,870 --> 00:13:59,702
Temple of Quetzalcoatl are in
360
00:13:59,772 --> 00:14:02,640
the same layout as Orion's Belt,
361
00:14:02,708 --> 00:14:04,973
which is basically the
362
00:14:05,044 --> 00:14:06,444
formation, which the three
363
00:14:06,512 --> 00:14:08,447
pyramids of the Giza Plateau
364
00:14:08,514 --> 00:14:09,709
have been laid out into, as
365
00:14:09,782 --> 00:14:12,047
well.
366
00:14:12,117 --> 00:14:14,484
NARRATOR: Might the design
367
00:14:14,553 --> 00:14:17,216
and layout of Teotihuacán be
368
00:14:17,289 --> 00:14:19,281
comparable to that of Giza
369
00:14:19,358 --> 00:14:20,986
because of similar influence
370
00:14:21,060 --> 00:14:23,291
by extraterrestrial visitors, as
371
00:14:23,362 --> 00:14:24,489
ancient astronaut theorists
372
00:14:24,563 --> 00:14:26,998
believe?
373
00:14:27,066 --> 00:14:28,026
CHILDRESS: When you have
374
00:14:28,067 --> 00:14:29,831
similar pyramid complexes like
375
00:14:29,902 --> 00:14:32,394
the ones at Teotihuacán, and the
376
00:14:32,471 --> 00:14:34,667
ones at Giza, you have to kind
377
00:14:34,740 --> 00:14:36,333
of think that, yeah, the same
378
00:14:36,408 --> 00:14:38,843
builders, the same designers are
379
00:14:38,911 --> 00:14:43,645
behind these giant complexes.
380
00:14:43,716 --> 00:14:45,514
NARRATOR: But perhaps the
381
00:14:45,584 --> 00:14:47,018
most intriguing aspect of
382
00:14:47,086 --> 00:14:49,851
Teotihuacán is the finding by
383
00:14:49,922 --> 00:14:51,584
archeologists of the extensive
384
00:14:51,657 --> 00:14:54,183
use of mica embedded in numerous
385
00:14:54,260 --> 00:14:56,525
structures... a mineral only
386
00:14:56,595 --> 00:14:59,656
found 3,000 miles away in
387
00:14:59,732 --> 00:15:00,859
Brazil.
388
00:15:00,933 --> 00:15:02,697
JOEL PALKA, PH.D.: it's found
389
00:15:02,768 --> 00:15:05,499
in all buildings, you know,
390
00:15:05,571 --> 00:15:07,540
housing complexes, temples, and
391
00:15:07,606 --> 00:15:09,040
you know, along the roads.
392
00:15:09,108 --> 00:15:11,043
It's found everywhere.
393
00:15:11,110 --> 00:15:12,271
COLLINS: These mica sheets
394
00:15:12,344 --> 00:15:15,280
were probably transported from
395
00:15:15,347 --> 00:15:16,508
thousands of miles away from
396
00:15:16,582 --> 00:15:17,880
Brazil.
397
00:15:17,950 --> 00:15:19,213
That's the nearest source.
398
00:15:19,285 --> 00:15:20,548
Now, why would you want to do
399
00:15:20,619 --> 00:15:21,882
that?
400
00:15:21,954 --> 00:15:23,388
'Cause they were obviously not
401
00:15:23,455 --> 00:15:24,615
there for decoration, because
402
00:15:24,623 --> 00:15:26,717
you couldn't see them.
403
00:15:26,792 --> 00:15:29,057
RICHARD BERGGREEN: Mica has
404
00:15:29,128 --> 00:15:31,063
some electrical properties that
405
00:15:31,130 --> 00:15:32,564
make it very good for being an
406
00:15:32,631 --> 00:15:33,792
insulator.
407
00:15:33,866 --> 00:15:35,198
It resists the transmission of
408
00:15:35,267 --> 00:15:36,394
electricity.
409
00:15:36,468 --> 00:15:38,061
It's also very good at being
410
00:15:38,137 --> 00:15:39,628
able to be stable at high
411
00:15:39,705 --> 00:15:41,139
temperatures so that it can be
412
00:15:41,206 --> 00:15:42,401
used in furnace windows and oven
413
00:15:42,474 --> 00:15:43,567
windows.
414
00:15:43,642 --> 00:15:45,076
It is clear so you can see
415
00:15:45,144 --> 00:15:46,305
through it, and at the same
416
00:15:46,378 --> 00:15:47,573
time, it stands up to the
417
00:15:47,646 --> 00:15:48,739
temperature and electrical, uh,
418
00:15:48,814 --> 00:15:50,806
discharges.
419
00:15:50,883 --> 00:15:52,408
COPPENS: So we know that they
420
00:15:52,484 --> 00:15:53,645
must have had a very specific
421
00:15:53,719 --> 00:15:54,812
and good reason to incorporate
422
00:15:54,887 --> 00:15:56,082
it.
423
00:15:56,155 --> 00:15:57,214
And the only possible reasons
424
00:15:57,289 --> 00:15:58,489
really why they would be doing
425
00:15:58,490 --> 00:15:59,719
this is because somehow it was
426
00:15:59,792 --> 00:16:02,762
part of some technology.
427
00:16:02,828 --> 00:16:04,160
NARRATOR: Recently,
428
00:16:04,229 --> 00:16:05,595
archeologists have also
429
00:16:05,664 --> 00:16:07,599
discovered large quantities
430
00:16:07,666 --> 00:16:09,100
of mica crystals in a
431
00:16:09,168 --> 00:16:13,435
subterranean chamber, as well as
432
00:16:13,505 --> 00:16:15,736
in several shafts that run
433
00:16:15,808 --> 00:16:18,107
beneath the Avenue of the Dead.
434
00:16:18,177 --> 00:16:19,440
TSOUKALOS: There is an
435
00:16:19,511 --> 00:16:23,107
underground shaft that goes from
436
00:16:23,182 --> 00:16:26,277
the mica chamber in direction
437
00:16:26,352 --> 00:16:30,119
of the Pyramid of the Sun.
438
00:16:30,189 --> 00:16:32,124
So is it possible that this mica
439
00:16:32,191 --> 00:16:34,126
chamber contained some type of
440
00:16:34,193 --> 00:16:36,924
an energy-producing device, a
441
00:16:36,996 --> 00:16:41,525
power plant that fed some of the
442
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,126
other pyramids?
443
00:16:44,203 --> 00:16:47,139
It is possible.
444
00:16:47,206 --> 00:16:48,299
CHILDRESS: There's many
445
00:16:48,374 --> 00:16:50,536
similarities between the
446
00:16:50,609 --> 00:16:52,134
pyramids at Teotihuacán and the
447
00:16:52,211 --> 00:16:54,305
pyramids at Giza.
448
00:16:54,380 --> 00:16:57,782
Both have inner chambers.
449
00:16:57,850 --> 00:16:59,375
It's thought by some that the
450
00:16:59,451 --> 00:17:00,885
Great Pyramid itself was a
451
00:17:00,953 --> 00:17:04,549
massive microwave generator,
452
00:17:04,623 --> 00:17:07,149
literally sending a beam up to a
453
00:17:07,226 --> 00:17:09,457
satellite, or powering some
454
00:17:09,528 --> 00:17:11,554
other kind of spacecraft or
455
00:17:11,630 --> 00:17:14,498
installation.
456
00:17:14,566 --> 00:17:16,159
We could have had the same thing
457
00:17:16,235 --> 00:17:22,334
happening here at Teotihuacán.
458
00:17:22,408 --> 00:17:23,740
NARRATOR: if the Pyramid of
459
00:17:23,809 --> 00:17:26,176
the Sun were really designed to
460
00:17:26,245 --> 00:17:28,180
generate power, as ancient
461
00:17:28,247 --> 00:17:29,806
astronaut theorists believe,
462
00:17:29,882 --> 00:17:32,511
could its mica-lined chambers
463
00:17:32,584 --> 00:17:34,177
and shafts have served as an
464
00:17:34,253 --> 00:17:35,482
interconnecting power grid for
465
00:17:35,554 --> 00:17:37,921
the entire city?
466
00:17:37,990 --> 00:17:41,188
Or could the use of mica have
467
00:17:41,260 --> 00:17:43,354
served another, perhaps more
468
00:17:43,429 --> 00:17:49,767
protective purpose?
469
00:17:49,835 --> 00:17:51,030
MARTELL: NASA uses mica to
470
00:17:51,103 --> 00:17:52,366
deflect the heat on many of
471
00:17:52,438 --> 00:17:53,701
their craft, such as the space
472
00:17:53,772 --> 00:17:55,206
shuttle.
473
00:17:55,274 --> 00:17:57,209
On reentry, the bottom part of
474
00:17:57,276 --> 00:17:58,608
the space shuttle is all lined
475
00:17:58,677 --> 00:18:00,009
with mica and is a perfect
476
00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:01,877
deflector of large amounts of
477
00:18:01,947 --> 00:18:03,438
heat.
478
00:18:03,515 --> 00:18:04,380
CHILDRESS: Could the mica
479
00:18:04,450 --> 00:18:05,884
at Teotihuacán also have been
480
00:18:05,951 --> 00:18:07,783
used to shield and protect the
481
00:18:07,853 --> 00:18:09,719
ancient people perhaps from the
482
00:18:09,788 --> 00:18:11,780
blast of an extraterrestrial
483
00:18:11,857 --> 00:18:14,224
rocket taking off?
484
00:18:14,293 --> 00:18:16,888
Or even the radiation maybe
485
00:18:16,962 --> 00:18:22,731
from some kind of spacecraft?
486
00:18:22,801 --> 00:18:23,962
NARRATOR: But if the ancient
487
00:18:24,036 --> 00:18:26,403
builders of Teotihuacán used
488
00:18:26,472 --> 00:18:28,407
mica for the purposes of power
489
00:18:28,474 --> 00:18:30,375
generation and radiation
490
00:18:30,442 --> 00:18:33,037
protection, then where did their

00:18:33,112 --> 00:18:34,478
advanced engineering and
492
00:18:34,546 --> 00:18:35,878
construction knowledge come
493
00:18:35,948 --> 00:18:37,576
from?
494
00:18:37,649 --> 00:18:38,480
TSOUKALOS: The earliest
495
00:18:38,550 --> 00:18:40,246
descriptions of Teotihuacán
496
00:18:40,319 --> 00:18:42,379
talk about gods descending
497
00:18:42,454 --> 00:18:45,253
from the sky in ships or
498
00:18:45,324 --> 00:18:47,316
winged serpents, and that
499
00:18:47,392 --> 00:18:49,918
something extraordinary happened
500
00:18:49,995 --> 00:18:52,260
there.
501
00:18:52,331 --> 00:18:53,321
WILLIAM HENRY: Teotihuacán,
502
00:18:53,398 --> 00:18:54,559
like the ancient Egyptian
503
00:18:54,633 --> 00:18:56,261
pyramids, is believed to have
504
00:18:56,335 --> 00:18:57,769
been built by the gods.
505
00:18:57,836 --> 00:18:59,600
And the gods ascended into the
506
00:18:59,671 --> 00:19:01,731
heavens in craft that we today
507
00:19:01,807 --> 00:19:04,902
think could be rocket ships.
508
00:19:04,977 --> 00:19:06,673
The builders certainly must
509
00:19:06,745 --> 00:19:07,906
have learned the secrets from
510
00:19:07,980 --> 00:19:10,609
the gods themselves.
511
00:19:10,682 --> 00:19:12,275
MARTELL: An interesting
512
00:19:12,351 --> 00:19:13,410
similarity with many of these
513
00:19:13,485 --> 00:19:15,283
ancient sites were reports of
514
00:19:15,354 --> 00:19:16,617
the gods ascending and
515
00:19:16,688 --> 00:19:18,953
descending from the heavens.
516
00:19:19,024 --> 00:19:20,617
It's very possible that these
517
00:19:20,692 --> 00:19:21,785
were actually being used as
518
00:19:21,860 --> 00:19:23,021
landing sites.
519
00:19:23,095 --> 00:19:24,529
So it's very possible that the
520
00:19:24,596 --> 00:19:26,292
knowledge to build Teotihuacán
521
00:19:26,365 --> 00:19:27,458
was given to us by
522
00:19:27,533 --> 00:19:32,369
extraterrestrials.
523
00:19:32,437 --> 00:19:33,427

and other strange creatures
526
00:19:38,544 --> 00:19:40,376
provide proof that ancient
527
00:19:40,445 --> 00:19:43,142
aliens did, in fact, influence
528
00:19:43,215 --> 00:19:44,649
the incredible architectural
529
00:19:44,716 --> 00:19:47,618
achievements of Teotihuacán?
530
00:19:47,686 --> 00:19:50,315
Perhaps more clues can be found
531
00:19:50,389 --> 00:19:52,824
on the other side of the planet
532
00:19:52,891 --> 00:19:55,326

ruins of a vast temple complex
540
00:20:12,945 --> 00:20:16,040
known as Vijayanagara.
541
00:20:16,114 --> 00:20:18,015
Translated as "the city of
542
00:20:18,083 --> 00:20:21,212
victory," this site once was the
543
00:20:21,286 --> 00:20:22,549
prosperous capital of the
544
00:20:22,621 --> 00:20:24,556
largest and most powerful Hindu
545
00:20:24,623 --> 00:20:28,890
kingdom in all of India.
546
00:20:28,961 --> 00:20:30,395
CHILDRESS: Vijayanagara is
547
00:20:30,462 --> 00:20:31,691
said to have been built in the
548
00:20:31,763 --> 00:20:34,323
14th century A.D.
549
00:20:34,399 --> 00:20:35,399
However, there's a lot of
550
00:20:35,467 --> 00:20:36,833
evidence to show that it's a
551
00:20:36,902 --> 00:20:37,892
much older city.
552
00:20:37,970 --> 00:20:40,201
And, in fact, uh, Hindu legends
553
00:20:40,272 --> 00:20:43,242
say that the ancient king Rama
554
00:20:43,308 --> 00:20:45,709
met with his monkey god friend
555
00:20:45,777 --> 00:20:48,212
Hanuman there at a cave at

Vijayanagara.
557
00:20:49,648 --> 00:20:50,672
And this would put this city
558
00:20:50,749 --> 00:20:56,586
back many thousands of years.
559
00:20:56,655 --> 00:20:57,748
JOHN FRITZ: This general
560
00:20:57,823 --> 00:20:59,416
region of southern India had
561
00:20:59,491 --> 00:21:01,585
human occupation perhaps
562
00:21:01,660 --> 00:21:04,755
hundreds of thousands of years.
563
00:21:04,830 --> 00:21:06,731
While the city of Vijayanagara
564
00:21:06,798 --> 00:21:08,266
is certainly the largest
565
00:21:08,333 --> 00:21:10,063
settlement that ever existed,
566
00:21:10,135 --> 00:21:11,763
there were civilizations that
567
00:21:11,837 --> 00:21:17,071
existed there much earlier.

00:21:17,142 --> 00:21:17,871
NARRATOR: According to
569
00:21:17,943 --> 00:21:19,878
scholars, the temples of
570
00:21:19,945 --> 00:21:22,437
Vijayanagara were built using
571
00:21:22,514 --> 00:21:23,880
ancient geometric and
572
00:21:23,949 --> 00:21:25,781
mathematical formulas found

00:21:29,187 --> 00:21:30,780
traditional Hindu system of

00:21:36,295 --> 00:21:43,725
properties of earth, water, air,
578
00:21:43,802 --> 00:21:48,638
fire and space.
579
00:21:48,707 --> 00:21:49,867
BORDEN: Vastu architecture
580
00:21:49,875 --> 00:21:52,640
is unique because it creates
581
00:21:52,711 --> 00:21:55,647
structures that are supposed to
582
00:21:55,714 --> 00:21:58,650
resonate with earth and cosmic
583
00:21:58,717 --> 00:22:00,652
energies.
584
00:22:00,719 --> 00:22:02,915
When you create a structure, you
585
00:22:02,988 --> 00:22:04,820
want the building to be in
586
00:22:04,890 --> 00:22:09,919
harmony with the earth.
587
00:22:09,995 --> 00:22:11,258
If you think of the earth as
588
00:22:11,330 --> 00:22:14,664
embedded in a space nervous
589
00:22:14,733 --> 00:22:17,328
system, and that the solar
590
00:22:17,402 --> 00:22:20,270
system is embedded in a space
591
00:22:20,339 --> 00:22:24,140
universe, it's all one nervous
592
00:22:24,209 --> 00:22:25,177
system.
593
00:22:25,243 --> 00:22:27,269
Well, the earth itself is tied
594
00:22:27,346 --> 00:22:29,008
to the rest of the universe by
595
00:22:29,081 --> 00:22:31,448
this, and receives and emanates
596
00:22:31,516 --> 00:22:33,348
energy by using this nervous
597
00:22:33,418 --> 00:22:34,442
system.
598
00:22:34,519 --> 00:22:36,181
And these temples illustrate
599
00:22:36,254 --> 00:22:39,019
that perfectly.
600
00:22:39,091 --> 00:22:40,525
It could be that these spaces
601
00:22:40,592 --> 00:22:43,187
were used as a technology to go
602
00:22:43,261 --> 00:22:45,492
deep within human consciousness
603
00:22:45,564 --> 00:22:51,697
and communicate with the gods.
604
00:22:51,770 --> 00:22:52,851
NARRATOR: The origins of
605
00:22:52,904 --> 00:22:55,533
Vastu architecture can be traced
606
00:22:55,607 --> 00:22:57,041
in ancient India Sangam
607
00:22:57,109 --> 00:22:59,510
literature to a mythic hero
608
00:22:59,578 --> 00:23:02,377
called Mamuni Mayan, who lived
609
00:23:02,447 --> 00:23:06,350
some 10,000 to 12,000 years ago.
610
00:23:06,418 --> 00:23:09,047
But who, or what, was this
611
00:23:09,121 --> 00:23:13,320
mysterious ancient figure?
612
00:23:13,392 --> 00:23:15,725
According to Hindu beliefs,
613
00:23:15,794 --> 00:23:18,059
Mamuni Mayan is revered as the
614
00:23:18,130 --> 00:23:20,895
Visvakarman... the lord of
615
00:23:20,966 --> 00:23:23,401
creation... and the deity who
616
00:23:23,468 --> 00:23:25,334
designed and fabricated the
617
00:23:25,404 --> 00:23:27,032
divine architecture of the
618
00:23:27,105 --> 00:23:29,199
universe.
619
00:23:29,274 --> 00:23:31,539
But might this god really have
620
00:23:31,610 --> 00:23:34,341
been an extraterrestrial entity,
621
00:23:34,413 --> 00:23:36,211
as ancient astronaut theorists
622
00:23:36,281 --> 00:23:39,342
believe?
623
00:23:39,418 --> 00:23:41,580
Researchers point to clues
624
00:23:41,653 --> 00:23:43,588
carved in stone throughout the
625
00:23:43,655 --> 00:23:45,214
ancient Vastu temples of
626
00:23:45,290 --> 00:23:48,260
Vijayanagara.
627
00:23:48,326 --> 00:23:49,919
CHILDRESS: Vijayanagara was
628
00:23:49,995 --> 00:23:51,588
thought to be a city that
629
00:23:51,663 --> 00:23:55,100
connected people to the gods.
630
00:23:55,167 --> 00:23:57,227
The gods themselves were said to
631
00:23:57,302 --> 00:23:59,237
have lived in this city...
632
00:23:59,304 --> 00:24:02,274
Shiva and... and Rama.
633
00:24:02,340 --> 00:24:04,400
Many of the strange statues
634
00:24:04,476 --> 00:24:07,446
there are of certain aspects of
635
00:24:07,512 --> 00:24:09,105
Vishnu.
636
00:24:09,181 --> 00:24:11,776
And he looks like some kind of
637
00:24:11,850 --> 00:24:14,615
strange extraterrestrial god.
638
00:24:14,686 --> 00:24:16,416
These are statues that still
639
00:24:16,488 --> 00:24:20,789
exist today at Vijayanagara.
640
00:24:20,859 --> 00:24:22,794
B. VIRUPAKSHI: According to
641
00:24:22,861 --> 00:24:24,454
the myths and legends, this is
642
00:24:24,529 --> 00:24:25,792
a very holy place.
643
00:24:25,864 --> 00:24:27,127
Why? Because of Rama, one of
644
00:24:27,199 --> 00:24:28,292
the incarnation of Vishnu.
645
00:24:28,366 --> 00:24:29,425
Rama is a god.
646
00:24:29,501 --> 00:24:30,799
He had been to this place.
647
00:24:30,869 --> 00:24:32,599
That's how this place has become
648
00:24:32,671 --> 00:24:37,268
very sacred.
649
00:24:37,342 --> 00:24:38,502
NARRATOR: Further evidence
650
00:24:38,510 --> 00:24:39,808
of the actual nature of the
651
00:24:39,878 --> 00:24:42,109
Hindu gods can be found in
652
00:24:42,180 --> 00:24:44,445
ancient Hindu scriptures.
653
00:24:44,516 --> 00:24:46,985
Epic poems like the Mahabharata
654
00:24:47,052 --> 00:24:49,487
and the Ramayana, and sacred
655
00:24:49,554 --> 00:24:51,955
texts called Vedic literature,
656
00:24:52,023 --> 00:24:54,492
contain multiple references to
657
00:24:54,559 --> 00:24:56,653
flying objects of various shapes
658
00:24:56,728 --> 00:24:59,163
and sizes.
659
00:24:59,231 --> 00:25:00,471
PATRICK FLANAGAN: In ancient
660
00:25:00,499 --> 00:25:02,627
Vedic literature, they say that
661
00:25:02,701 --> 00:25:03,828
they had Vimanas, which are
662
00:25:03,902 --> 00:25:07,339
anti-gravity aircraft, and
663
00:25:07,405 --> 00:25:09,135
that they flew around on them.
664
00:25:09,207 --> 00:25:12,177
And the Vimana's construction is
665
00:25:12,244 --> 00:25:14,679
detailed in the Mahabharata and
666
00:25:14,746 --> 00:25:16,840
some of the other ancient books
667
00:25:16,915 --> 00:25:18,474
that have come to us from
668
00:25:18,550 --> 00:25:23,853
that time.
669
00:25:23,922 --> 00:25:25,151
CHILDRESS: At Vijayanagara,
670
00:25:25,223 --> 00:25:27,522
you have the traditional Hindu
671
00:25:27,592 --> 00:25:29,618
Vastu architecture.
672
00:25:29,694 --> 00:25:32,289
You have, therefore, the stone
673
00:25:32,364 --> 00:25:35,857
temples that are, uh, conical in
674
00:25:35,934 --> 00:25:36,663
shape.
675
00:25:36,735 --> 00:25:38,966
So the architecture itself was
676
00:25:39,037 --> 00:25:43,475
sort of a copy of the airships
677
00:25:43,542 --> 00:25:46,034
or rockets or spaceships that
678
00:25:46,111 --> 00:25:50,640
they called Vimanas.
679
00:25:50,715 --> 00:25:52,547
BORDEN: At Vijayanagara,
680
00:25:52,617 --> 00:25:53,880
they were using Vastu
681
00:25:53,952 --> 00:25:55,045
technology.
682
00:25:55,120 --> 00:25:58,022
And Vastu technology has been
683
00:25:58,089 --> 00:26:00,888
used to make flying vehicles.
684
00:26:00,959 --> 00:26:02,723
The technology is there to
685
00:26:02,794 --> 00:26:06,060
create weapons, to probably
686
00:26:06,131 --> 00:26:09,329
create an energy that could
687
00:26:09,401 --> 00:26:14,339
power a spaceship.
688
00:26:14,406 --> 00:26:17,001
VON DANIKEN: The Vimanas we
689
00:26:17,075 --> 00:26:19,237
would call today space shuttle,
690
00:26:19,311 --> 00:26:20,244
flying machines.
691
00:26:20,312 --> 00:26:21,507
Now we have different sort of
692
00:26:21,580 --> 00:26:23,515
space shuttle.
693
00:26:23,582 --> 00:26:24,914
A Russian space shuttle doesn't
694
00:26:24,983 --> 00:26:26,349
look like an American space
695
00:26:26,418 --> 00:26:29,183
shuttle and so on.
696
00:26:29,254 --> 00:26:31,086
So in ancient India, we have
697
00:26:31,156 --> 00:26:32,556
different descriptions of
698
00:26:32,624 --> 00:26:34,923
Vimanas with wings, with all
699
00:26:34,993 --> 00:26:37,360
kinds of lights and so on, and
700
00:26:37,429 --> 00:26:40,092
out of these Vimanas so-called
701
00:26:40,165 --> 00:26:44,102
gods came.
702
00:26:44,169 --> 00:26:46,104
NARRATOR: Might the early
703
00:26:46,171 --> 00:26:48,538
people of South India really
704
00:26:48,607 --> 00:26:50,041
have been taught advanced
705
00:26:50,108 --> 00:26:52,043
building techniques to harness
706
00:26:52,110 --> 00:26:55,103
powerful cosmic energy?
707
00:26:55,180 --> 00:26:57,206
And if so, might this have been
708
00:26:57,282 --> 00:26:59,615
done so that early man could
709
00:26:59,684 --> 00:27:01,277
connect with other distant
710
00:27:01,353 --> 00:27:03,447
worlds, as ancient astronaut
711
00:27:03,521 --> 00:27:05,956
theorists believe?
712
00:27:06,024 --> 00:27:07,304
CHILDRESS: Vijayanagara would
713
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,954
have been one of many cities
714
00:27:10,028 --> 00:27:12,964
around the planet built by the
715
00:27:13,031 --> 00:27:15,091
extraterrestrial gods.
716
00:27:15,166 --> 00:27:16,725
It was part of a network of
717
00:27:16,801 --> 00:27:19,293
ancient cities around the planet
718
00:27:19,371 --> 00:27:21,067
that included megalithic cites
719
00:27:21,139 --> 00:27:23,233
in South America, on Pacific
720
00:27:23,308 --> 00:27:25,641
islands, in India and Egypt and
721
00:27:25,710 --> 00:27:27,303
Africa and other areas of the
722
00:27:27,379 --> 00:27:28,779
Middle East.
723
00:27:28,847 --> 00:27:30,145
It was one of their special
724
00:27:30,215 --> 00:27:32,150
cities that they had built
725
00:27:32,217 --> 00:27:35,984
thousands of years ago.
726
00:27:36,054 --> 00:27:37,784
NARRATOR: Did ancient man
727
00:27:37,856 --> 00:27:39,484
really incorporate the wisdom
728
00:27:39,557 --> 00:27:41,321
and expertise of cosmic
729
00:27:41,393 --> 00:27:43,658
travelers into the architecture
730
00:27:43,728 --> 00:27:47,130
of their monumental buildings?
731
00:27:47,198 --> 00:27:49,258
If so, wouldn't additional
732
00:27:49,334 --> 00:27:51,997
evidence of such contact exist
733
00:27:52,070 --> 00:27:55,097
elsewhere in the world?
734
00:27:55,173 --> 00:27:57,005
What if there were recent
735
00:27:57,075 --> 00:27:59,010
findings of the use of machine
736
00:27:59,077 --> 00:28:02,673
technology discovered in ancient
737
00:28:02,747 --> 00:28:03,247
Egypt?
738
00:28:08,453 --> 00:28:11,218
NARRATOR: Luxor, Egypt.
739
00:28:11,289 --> 00:28:13,383
Here, along the east bank of the
740
00:28:13,458 --> 00:28:15,222
Nile River, lie the
741
00:28:15,293 --> 00:28:17,228
archaeological remains of the
742
00:28:17,295 --> 00:28:20,493
vast Karnak temple complex,
743
00:28:20,565 --> 00:28:25,230
dating to the 32nd century B.C.
744
00:28:25,303 --> 00:28:26,896
With its numerous structures,
745
00:28:26,971 --> 00:28:31,909
including great halls, obelisks,
746
00:28:31,976 --> 00:28:35,242
and an avenue of sphinxes,
747
00:28:35,313 --> 00:28:37,407
Karnak represents the combined
748
00:28:37,482 --> 00:28:39,849
achievement of many generations
749
00:28:39,918 --> 00:28:41,853
of Egypt's ancient builders.
750
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,048
MARTELL: When one travels to
751
00:28:44,122 --> 00:28:46,250
Luxor and gazes upon the Karnak
752
00:28:46,324 --> 00:28:48,418
Temple, we see large pillars,
753
00:28:48,493 --> 00:28:50,359
oversized obelisks, and what's
754
00:28:50,428 --> 00:28:52,420
very amazing about this area is
755
00:28:52,497 --> 00:28:53,897
that it's one of the few places
756
00:28:53,965 --> 00:28:56,093
where over 30 pharaohs
757
00:28:56,167 --> 00:28:57,863
contributed to its sheer size
758
00:28:57,936 --> 00:28:59,529
and wealth of knowledge over a
759
00:28:59,604 --> 00:29:02,938
vast period of time.
760
00:29:03,007 --> 00:29:04,441
NARRATOR: For centuries,
761
00:29:04,509 --> 00:29:06,944
archaeologists and scholars have
762
00:29:07,011 --> 00:29:08,946
considered Karnak to be one of
763
00:29:09,013 --> 00:29:11,073
the most dramatic examples of
764
00:29:11,149 --> 00:29:12,742
the remarkable technological
765
00:29:12,817 --> 00:29:16,379
ability of early man.
766
00:29:16,454 --> 00:29:17,581
But do the construction
767
00:29:17,655 --> 00:29:19,590
techniques used in building
768
00:29:19,657 --> 00:29:21,592
these incredible monuments
769
00:29:21,659 --> 00:29:23,457
reveal evidence of something
770
00:29:23,528 --> 00:29:26,555
more... something not of this
771
00:29:26,631 --> 00:29:29,624
earth?
772
00:29:29,701 --> 00:29:31,465
COPPENS: When we start
773
00:29:31,536 --> 00:29:33,095
looking at hieroglyphs, we are
774
00:29:33,171 --> 00:29:35,140
amazed as to how beautiful and
775
00:29:35,206 --> 00:29:36,435
how carefully they have been
776
00:29:36,508 --> 00:29:40,468
carved.
777
00:29:40,545 --> 00:29:42,309
The technology which we see is
778
00:29:42,380 --> 00:29:44,474
clearly of a perfection which is
779
00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:47,109
beautiful and almost makes our
780
00:29:47,185 --> 00:29:48,653
heart cry whenever you come face
781
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,315
to face with it.
782
00:29:51,389 --> 00:29:53,153
NARRATOR: Experts believe the
783
00:29:53,224 --> 00:29:54,783
most impressive evidence of
784
00:29:54,859 --> 00:29:57,328
advanced machining can be found
785
00:29:57,395 --> 00:29:59,489
on Karnak's tall four-sided
786
00:29:59,564 --> 00:30:01,328
tapering monuments, called
787
00:30:01,399 --> 00:30:03,334
obelisks.
788
00:30:03,401 --> 00:30:05,131
CHILDRESS: The obelisk is
789
00:30:05,203 --> 00:30:06,136
carved with the same
790
00:30:06,204 --> 00:30:08,605
inscriptions on four sides, and
791
00:30:08,673 --> 00:30:11,108
they're all exactly the same and
792
00:30:11,176 --> 00:30:14,510
they are beautifully cut and
793
00:30:14,579 --> 00:30:17,481
articulated hieroglyphs into
794
00:30:17,549 --> 00:30:19,347
this red granite stone.
795
00:30:19,417 --> 00:30:20,657
ANDREWS: We would look at it
796
00:30:20,718 --> 00:30:22,346
today and say it had to be some
797
00:30:22,420 --> 00:30:23,501
sort of machine that carved
798
00:30:23,521 --> 00:30:25,683
these things out.
799
00:30:25,757 --> 00:30:27,851
For example, there were slots.
800
00:30:27,926 --> 00:30:30,521
They were only.14 inches wide,
801
00:30:30,595 --> 00:30:31,961
half-inch deep.
802
00:30:32,030 --> 00:30:33,191
When you look inside, you can
803
00:30:33,264 --> 00:30:34,994
see the bottom of 'em were made
804
00:30:35,066 --> 00:30:36,864
by a rotating tool, so this was
805
00:30:36,935 --> 00:30:40,372
a tool that punched in, came
806
00:30:40,438 --> 00:30:41,497
out, stepped down, punched in,
807
00:30:41,573 --> 00:30:43,508
came out.
808
00:30:43,575 --> 00:30:45,043
The human hand, no matter how
809
00:30:45,109 --> 00:30:46,509
good you are, could never do
810
00:30:46,578 --> 00:30:48,376
that.
811
00:30:48,446 --> 00:30:50,381
The tool marks themselves, the
812
00:30:50,448 --> 00:30:52,383
precision, the depth, the
813
00:30:52,450 --> 00:30:54,043
rotating impressions that were
814
00:30:54,118 --> 00:30:58,556
made were not done by hand.
815
00:30:58,623 --> 00:31:00,819
Some of those were so precisely
816
00:31:00,892 --> 00:31:02,724
engraved as to require machine
817
00:31:02,794 --> 00:31:06,856
tools to do it.
818
00:31:06,931 --> 00:31:08,900
The tool kit that we see, that
819
00:31:08,967 --> 00:31:09,900
the ancient Egyptians were
820
00:31:09,968 --> 00:31:11,561
supposed to use... there is no
821
00:31:11,636 --> 00:31:13,400
way that any of those tools
822
00:31:13,471 --> 00:31:14,530
could produce the results that
823
00:31:14,606 --> 00:31:16,199
we saw.
824
00:31:16,274 --> 00:31:18,038
NARRATOR: To many scholars,
825
00:31:18,109 --> 00:31:19,702
the apparent precision used in
826
00:31:19,777 --> 00:31:21,575
the construction of the obelisks
827
00:31:21,646 --> 00:31:24,514
at Karnak suggests a 21st-
828
00:31:24,582 --> 00:31:29,077
century level of expertise.
829
00:31:29,153 --> 00:31:31,088
CHRISTOPHER DUNN: Precision
830
00:31:31,155 --> 00:31:32,236
is what our civilization is
831
00:31:32,290 --> 00:31:34,225
built on.
832
00:31:34,292 --> 00:31:37,057
To craft something to within
833
00:31:37,128 --> 00:31:40,428
2/10,000 of an inch or 1/1,000
834
00:31:40,498 --> 00:31:42,558
of an inch is quite common today
835
00:31:42,634 --> 00:31:44,603
because that tolerance or that
836
00:31:44,669 --> 00:31:47,104
precision is necessary and it
837
00:31:47,171 --> 00:31:48,104
has a purpose.
838
00:31:48,172 --> 00:31:49,936
NARRATOR: But how can we
839
00:31:50,008 --> 00:31:51,874
explain such precision in
840
00:31:51,943 --> 00:31:53,741
ancient construction?
841
00:31:53,811 --> 00:31:56,212
TSOUKALOS: if you look at the
842
00:31:56,281 --> 00:31:59,615
Ramses statue, it is so perfect
843
00:31:59,684 --> 00:32:01,448
that you wonder how this was
844
00:32:01,519 --> 00:32:03,954
even done with allegedly
845
00:32:04,022 --> 00:32:07,049
primitive tools because today we
846
00:32:07,125 --> 00:32:09,458
could only do this with
847
00:32:09,527 --> 00:32:12,725
machines.
848
00:32:12,797 --> 00:32:14,459
DUNN: So the way we check the
849
00:32:14,532 --> 00:32:17,468
symmetry of the Ramses statue is
850
00:32:17,535 --> 00:32:19,470
to take two images of the same
851
00:32:19,537 --> 00:32:20,800
photographs, make
852
00:32:20,872 --> 00:32:23,239
transparencies, and compare the
853
00:32:23,308 --> 00:32:25,106
left to the right.
854
00:32:25,176 --> 00:32:27,577
We flip it over and bring it
855
00:32:27,645 --> 00:32:30,479
over the original, and as we can
856
00:32:30,548 --> 00:32:37,978
see, we have a perfect match.
857
00:32:38,056 --> 00:32:39,991
The ancient Egyptians were very
858
00:32:40,058 --> 00:32:41,822
skilled at working granite.
859
00:32:41,893 --> 00:32:44,829
I cannot see how they could have
860
00:32:44,896 --> 00:32:47,764
created what they created with
861
00:32:47,832 --> 00:32:49,494
the tools that are commonly
862
00:32:49,567 --> 00:32:51,832
accepted to have been in the
863
00:32:51,903 --> 00:32:54,168
ancient Egyptians' toolbox, such
864
00:32:54,238 --> 00:32:56,503
as copper chisels or stone
865
00:32:56,574 --> 00:33:00,306
chisels, wooden mallets, stone
866
00:33:00,378 --> 00:33:04,145
balls.
867
00:33:04,215 --> 00:33:06,343
NARRATOR: But if, as many
868
00:33:06,417 --> 00:33:07,976
historians and archaeologists
869
00:33:08,052 --> 00:33:10,521
contend, the ancient builders
870
00:33:10,588 --> 00:33:11,851
did not possess the equivalent
871
00:33:11,923 --> 00:33:14,518
of modern tools, how were these
872
00:33:14,592 --> 00:33:15,855
monuments built with such
873
00:33:15,927 --> 00:33:19,193
mathematical precision?
874
00:33:19,263 --> 00:33:21,198
Perhaps the answer can be found
875
00:33:21,265 --> 00:33:23,029
by comparing an example of
876
00:33:23,101 --> 00:33:25,195
ancient sculpture with one made
877
00:33:25,269 --> 00:33:29,639
by more modern methods.
878
00:33:29,707 --> 00:33:31,835
DUNN: We can compare the
879
00:33:31,909 --> 00:33:33,343
aluminum model, the face
880
00:33:33,411 --> 00:33:35,642
machine, the striations coming
881
00:33:35,713 --> 00:33:38,683
down the face with the
882
00:33:38,750 --> 00:33:40,548
striations coming down the face
883
00:33:40,618 --> 00:33:42,883
of the statue at Karnak in
884
00:33:42,954 --> 00:33:46,186
Egypt, and also the tool marks,
885
00:33:46,257 --> 00:33:47,555
so where we see above the
886
00:33:47,625 --> 00:33:50,652
eyebrow, the dig in right there,
887
00:33:50,728 --> 00:33:52,560
where the... kind of shows us
888
00:33:52,630 --> 00:33:53,893
what kind of tools or the shape
889
00:33:53,965 --> 00:33:57,732
of the tools that they used.
890
00:33:57,802 --> 00:34:00,567
So the elements that bring this
891
00:34:00,638 --> 00:34:04,166
machining to ancient statue are
892
00:34:04,242 --> 00:34:07,576
not just the symmetry but also
893
00:34:07,645 --> 00:34:11,582
the geometry, the precision, and
894
00:34:11,649 --> 00:34:13,845
the tool marks, and we have all
895
00:34:13,918 --> 00:34:15,910
three elements in modern
896
00:34:15,987 --> 00:34:21,722
machining and ancient statuary.
897
00:34:21,793 --> 00:34:23,728
It's an enormously difficult
898
00:34:23,795 --> 00:34:26,697
thing to do by hand without
899
00:34:26,764 --> 00:34:28,596
introducing some mechanical
900
00:34:28,666 --> 00:34:29,759
systems.
901
00:34:29,834 --> 00:34:36,070
Seems to me to be impossible.
902
00:34:36,140 --> 00:34:38,268
NARRATOR: But if the tool
903
00:34:38,342 --> 00:34:40,868
marks seen on the Ramses statue
904
00:34:40,945 --> 00:34:42,208
appear identical to those made
905
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,909
by modern methods, wouldn't it
906
00:34:44,982 --> 00:34:46,780
prove that the ancient builders
907
00:34:46,851 --> 00:34:49,446
had access to machines and
908
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:54,117
perhaps even electricity?
909
00:34:54,192 --> 00:34:55,313
CHILDRESS: They allegedly
910
00:34:55,359 --> 00:34:57,294
did not have electricity,
911
00:34:57,361 --> 00:34:58,795
power tools.
912
00:34:58,863 --> 00:35:00,058
Supposedly, they didn't have
913
00:35:00,131 --> 00:35:01,622
diamond saws.
914
00:35:01,699 --> 00:35:03,224
But yet, they're doing things
915
00:35:03,301 --> 00:35:05,930
that would require precision
916
00:35:06,003 --> 00:35:08,632
work, precision tools.
917
00:35:08,706 --> 00:35:09,901
So where did they get those
918
00:35:09,974 --> 00:35:10,805
things?
919
00:35:10,875 --> 00:35:12,138
How could they have had these
920
00:35:12,210 --> 00:35:14,304
advanced machining tools that
921
00:35:14,378 --> 00:35:15,641
we've only just acquired
922
00:35:15,713 --> 00:35:17,079
ourselves today in our
923
00:35:17,148 --> 00:35:18,810
civilization?
924
00:35:18,883 --> 00:35:20,647
So one answer would have to be
925
00:35:20,718 --> 00:35:22,414
they'd gotten it from ancient
926
00:35:22,487 --> 00:35:24,752
aliens.
927
00:35:24,822 --> 00:35:25,983
NARRATOR: Might the early
928
00:35:26,057 --> 00:35:27,787
Egyptian builders have had
929
00:35:27,859 --> 00:35:29,657
access to extraterrestrial
930
00:35:29,727 --> 00:35:31,787
knowledge and technology?
931
00:35:31,863 --> 00:35:34,162
Or might the ancient builders
932
00:35:34,232 --> 00:35:37,100
have been aliens themselves?
933
00:35:37,168 --> 00:35:39,000
According to ancient astronaut
934
00:35:39,070 --> 00:35:42,768
theorists, the answer is yes.
935
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,672
And for proof, they point to a
936
00:35:44,742 --> 00:35:46,677
tiny island in the middle of the
937
00:35:46,744 --> 00:35:52,445
Mediterranean Sea.
938
00:35:52,517 --> 00:35:53,951
NARRATOR: Malta...
939
00:35:54,018 --> 00:35:55,850
a small island nation in the
940
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,355
center of the Mediterranean Sea,
941
00:35:58,422 --> 00:36:02,689
just south of Italy.
942
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,160
Scholars believe the first
943
00:36:04,228 --> 00:36:05,856
inhabitants migrated here from
944
00:36:05,930 --> 00:36:08,365
the nearby island of Sicily in
945
00:36:08,432 --> 00:36:11,994
5200 B.C.
946
00:36:12,069 --> 00:36:14,368
Today, stone structures on the
947
00:36:14,438 --> 00:36:16,839
Maltese island of Gozo are
948
00:36:16,908 --> 00:36:19,036
considered by archeologists to
949
00:36:19,110 --> 00:36:20,703
be among the greatest
950
00:36:20,778 --> 00:36:22,303
achievements by ancient builders
951
00:36:22,380 --> 00:36:28,809
anywhere in the world.
952
00:36:28,886 --> 00:36:29,876
LINDA ENEIX: The temples on
953
00:36:29,954 --> 00:36:31,980
Malta and Gozo are more than a
954
00:36:32,056 --> 00:36:33,388
thousand years older than the
955
00:36:33,457 --> 00:36:35,722
pyramids of Egypt.
956
00:36:35,793 --> 00:36:37,728
They are the earliest monumental
957
00:36:37,795 --> 00:36:40,731
architecture in the world.
958
00:36:40,798 --> 00:36:41,998
There are engineering features
959
00:36:42,066 --> 00:36:44,058
in these temples that are just
960
00:36:44,135 --> 00:36:45,364
astonishing.
961
00:36:45,436 --> 00:36:46,734
We're talking about walls
962
00:36:46,804 --> 00:36:48,830
enclosing space...
963
00:36:48,906 --> 00:36:50,898
paved walkways...
964
00:36:50,975 --> 00:36:53,410
they were ceilinged at one time.
965
00:36:53,477 --> 00:36:55,173
Definitely much more complex
966
00:36:55,246 --> 00:36:56,737
than anything else that was
967
00:36:56,814 --> 00:36:58,339
appearing on earth for a very
968
00:36:58,416 --> 00:37:01,386
long time.
969
00:37:01,452 --> 00:37:02,750
NARRATOR: Built before metal
970
00:37:02,820 --> 00:37:04,083
tools or the wheel had been
971
00:37:04,155 --> 00:37:07,023
invented, experts are baffled by
972
00:37:07,091 --> 00:37:08,753
the sheer scale of the
973
00:37:08,826 --> 00:37:10,419
construction and the use of
974
00:37:10,494 --> 00:37:12,429
vertically arranged monolithic
975
00:37:12,496 --> 00:37:14,055
stones, each weighing over 20
976
00:37:14,131 --> 00:37:17,761
tons.
977
00:37:17,835 --> 00:37:18,928
FLANAGAN: it's only been in
978
00:37:19,003 --> 00:37:20,528
recent years that we've
979
00:37:20,605 --> 00:37:22,437
developed instruments that are
980
00:37:22,506 --> 00:37:24,270
accurate enough to appreciate
981
00:37:24,342 --> 00:37:25,776
that some of these ancient
982
00:37:25,843 --> 00:37:27,539
societies were able to shape
983
00:37:27,612 --> 00:37:30,946
stones to optical accuracy...
984
00:37:31,015 --> 00:37:32,779
optical accuracy greater than
985
00:37:32,850 --> 00:37:35,445
what we're able to do today.
986
00:37:35,519 --> 00:37:37,044
And so they must have had some
987
00:37:37,121 --> 00:37:39,113
kind of advanced technology
988
00:37:39,190 --> 00:37:41,284
enabling them to do that.
989
00:37:41,359 --> 00:37:42,884
NARRATOR: But if the ancient
990
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,293
builders of Malta had used
991
00:37:45,363 --> 00:37:46,956
advanced technology, where did
992
00:37:47,031 --> 00:37:49,227
it come from?
993
00:37:49,300 --> 00:37:50,962
Researchers believe answers may
994
00:37:51,035 --> 00:37:53,800
be found among Malta's numerous
995
00:37:53,871 --> 00:37:55,066
mysteries... including the
996
00:37:55,139 --> 00:37:57,472
so-called cart ruts, which can
997
00:37:57,541 --> 00:38:02,809
be found all over Malta.
998
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:04,280
ENEIX: These parallel
999
00:38:04,348 --> 00:38:06,146
incisions in the bedrock have
1000
00:38:06,217 --> 00:38:07,651
been identified as cart ruts
1001
00:38:07,718 --> 00:38:08,811
because that's what
1002
00:38:08,886 --> 00:38:10,411
they look like.
1003
00:38:10,488 --> 00:38:11,820
What they really were,
1004
00:38:11,889 --> 00:38:12,822
what their purpose was,
1005
00:38:12,890 --> 00:38:13,983
we don't know.
1006
00:38:14,058 --> 00:38:16,323
There's nothing written.
1007
00:38:16,394 --> 00:38:17,394
ANDREWS: The cart ruts on
1008
00:38:17,395 --> 00:38:21,833
Malta are about four feet wide.
1009
00:38:21,899 --> 00:38:24,926
They're uniformly spaced.
1010
00:38:25,002 --> 00:38:26,834
Some of them run hundreds of
1011
00:38:26,904 --> 00:38:27,928
yards.
1012
00:38:28,005 --> 00:38:30,338
Some of them run miles.
1013
00:38:30,408 --> 00:38:31,933
According to the studies of
1014
00:38:32,009 --> 00:38:33,477
them, they probably were there
1015
00:38:33,544 --> 00:38:35,945
up to 10,000 years ago, because
1016
00:38:36,013 --> 00:38:37,845
some of the ancient temples are
1017
00:38:37,915 --> 00:38:41,113
built right on top of the ruts.
1018
00:38:41,185 --> 00:38:42,385
NARRATOR: Ancient astronaut
1019
00:38:42,420 --> 00:38:44,855
theorists believe the cart ruts
1020
00:38:44,922 --> 00:38:47,858
may in fact be evidence that
1021
00:38:47,925 --> 00:38:49,484
Malta was one of Earth's
1022
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,122
earliest industrial work sites.
1023
00:38:53,197 --> 00:38:54,357
CHILDRESS: it seems like what
1024
00:38:54,398 --> 00:38:57,027
these cart ruts really were was
1025
00:38:57,101 --> 00:38:59,866
some kind of ancient, uh,
1026
00:38:59,937 --> 00:39:01,872
railway.
1027
00:39:01,939 --> 00:39:03,965
And this railway was then to
1028
00:39:04,041 --> 00:39:06,875
move heavy machinery, much as we
1029
00:39:06,944 --> 00:39:08,879
would use today in a mining
1030
00:39:08,946 --> 00:39:12,212
operation, even the way rockets
1031
00:39:12,283 --> 00:39:14,377
are rolled out onto
1032
00:39:14,452 --> 00:39:17,889
a launch pad.
1033
00:39:17,955 --> 00:39:19,389
NARRATOR: Further evidence of
1034
00:39:19,457 --> 00:39:21,016
the use of advanced technology
1035
00:39:21,092 --> 00:39:22,651
on Malta can be found
1036
00:39:22,727 --> 00:39:24,559
underground.
1037
00:39:24,628 --> 00:39:27,564
In 1902, construction workers,
1038
00:39:27,631 --> 00:39:29,361
while building the foundation
1039
00:39:29,433 --> 00:39:32,198
for several houses, accidentally
1040
00:39:32,269 --> 00:39:33,999
discovered a mysterious
1041
00:39:34,071 --> 00:39:36,165
underground sanctuary dating to
1042
00:39:36,240 --> 00:39:39,005
2500 B.C.
1043
00:39:39,076 --> 00:39:40,908
Called the Hypogeum, the
1044
00:39:40,978 --> 00:39:42,503
subterranean structure was
1045
00:39:42,580 --> 00:39:44,344
revealed to be three levels
1046
00:39:44,415 --> 00:39:47,908
deep... all hewn from solid
1047
00:39:47,985 --> 00:39:49,351
stone.
1048
00:39:49,420 --> 00:39:50,580
ENEIX: it's been estimated
1049
00:39:50,621 --> 00:39:51,919
that they removed more than
1050
00:39:51,989 --> 00:39:53,924
2,000 tons of stone from these
1051
00:39:53,991 --> 00:39:56,358
subterranean chambers to create
1052
00:39:56,427 --> 00:39:59,090
a space that beautifully
1053
00:39:59,163 --> 00:40:00,597
replicates the temples above
1054
00:40:00,664 --> 00:40:01,164
ground.
1055
00:40:05,436 --> 00:40:06,557
NARRATOR: Perhaps one of the
1056
00:40:06,604 --> 00:40:08,266
greatest mysteries concerning
1057
00:40:08,339 --> 00:40:10,604
the Hypogeum involve the
1058
00:40:10,674 --> 00:40:12,939
acoustical properties in what is
1059
00:40:13,010 --> 00:40:17,948
called the "Oracle Room."
1060
00:40:18,015 --> 00:40:19,278
COLLINS: The acoustical
1061
00:40:19,350 --> 00:40:20,943
properties within this are
1062
00:40:21,018 --> 00:40:22,953
absolutely extraordinary,
1063
00:40:23,020 --> 00:40:24,613
because what happens is the...
1064
00:40:24,688 --> 00:40:26,418
if a person is within the
1065
00:40:26,490 --> 00:40:28,288
Oracle Room, the way that their
1066
00:40:28,359 --> 00:40:30,294
voice is carried is heard
1067
00:40:30,361 --> 00:40:34,093
within the whole of the complex.
1068
00:40:34,165 --> 00:40:35,463
HENRY: The ancients were
1069
00:40:35,533 --> 00:40:37,092
using this profound sound
1070
00:40:37,168 --> 00:40:39,069
technology in order to put
1071
00:40:39,136 --> 00:40:40,399
themselves into a deep state of
1072
00:40:40,471 --> 00:40:43,066
trance in order to access
1073
00:40:43,140 --> 00:40:45,075
higher human consciousness.
1074
00:40:45,142 --> 00:40:46,440
They wanted to go deep within in
1075
00:40:46,510 --> 00:40:47,978
order to connect themselves with
1076
00:40:48,045 --> 00:40:51,641
star energy.
1077
00:40:51,715 --> 00:40:52,755
NARRATOR: Might the Oracle
1078
00:40:52,817 --> 00:40:54,149
Room have been used to
1079
00:40:54,218 --> 00:40:57,120
communicate with ancient gods?
1080
00:40:57,188 --> 00:40:58,986
Or, perhaps, celestial
1081
00:40:59,056 --> 00:41:01,082
ancestors?
1082
00:41:01,158 --> 00:41:02,990
Or do its advanced acoustics
1083
00:41:03,060 --> 00:41:05,586
suggest that early Maltese
1084
00:41:05,663 --> 00:41:07,495
people had mastered the science
1085
00:41:07,565 --> 00:41:10,433
of sonic manipulation, the
1086
00:41:10,501 --> 00:41:12,094
ability to manipulate solid
1087
00:41:12,169 --> 00:41:14,104
matter through audio
1088
00:41:14,171 --> 00:41:16,504
frequencies?
1089
00:41:16,574 --> 00:41:18,008
FLANAGAN: One of the main
1090
00:41:18,075 --> 00:41:19,475
things that I've realized is
1091
00:41:19,543 --> 00:41:21,171
that they're using something
1092
00:41:21,245 --> 00:41:24,511
called fractal nonlinear
1093
00:41:24,582 --> 00:41:26,016
resonance.
1094
00:41:26,083 --> 00:41:28,109
And we're now discovering in the
1095
00:41:28,185 --> 00:41:30,347
field of material science that
1096
00:41:30,421 --> 00:41:34,017
nonlinear resonances of sound
1097
00:41:34,091 --> 00:41:37,289
waves, microwaves, magnetic
1098
00:41:37,361 --> 00:41:40,024
waves, that we are able to
1099
00:41:40,097 --> 00:41:43,192
actually change matter in ways
1100
00:41:43,267 --> 00:41:46,328
that we never dreamed possible.
1101
00:41:46,403 --> 00:41:48,031
NARRATOR: if the Oracle Room
1102
00:41:48,105 --> 00:41:50,336
was used to harness the power of
1103
00:41:50,407 --> 00:41:52,535
audio waves, as many ancient
1104
00:41:52,610 --> 00:41:55,045
astronaut theorists believe, is
1105
00:41:55,112 --> 00:41:57,672
it possible the prehistoric
1106
00:41:57,748 --> 00:42:00,047
builders used sonic technology
1107
00:42:00,117 --> 00:42:02,484
to help build Malta's mammoth
1108
00:42:02,553 --> 00:42:04,044
temples?
1109
00:42:04,121 --> 00:42:05,321
CHILDRESS: The builders had
1110
00:42:05,389 --> 00:42:06,721
this advanced knowledge of
1111
00:42:06,790 --> 00:42:09,692
sonic technology.
1112
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,525
And, in fact, sound technology
1113
00:42:12,596 --> 00:42:15,065
can be used for all kinds of
1114
00:42:15,132 --> 00:42:16,065
applications, including
1115
00:42:16,133 --> 00:42:19,399
levitation or antigravity.
1116
00:42:19,470 --> 00:42:20,733
COLLINS: All around the
1117
00:42:20,804 --> 00:42:23,069
world, there are myths and
1118
00:42:23,140 --> 00:42:26,406
legends relating to how large
1119
00:42:26,477 --> 00:42:29,675
structures came into being.
1120
00:42:29,747 --> 00:42:31,375
They talk about the movement of
1121
00:42:31,448 --> 00:42:34,077
stones through the use of sound,
1122
00:42:34,151 --> 00:42:37,553
about the use of instruments or
1123
00:42:37,621 --> 00:42:40,750
the banging, the ringing...
1124
00:42:40,824 --> 00:42:43,225
that will elevate stones enough
1125
00:42:43,294 --> 00:42:45,092
so that they can be pushed as if
1126
00:42:45,162 --> 00:42:47,757
they've become completely
1127
00:42:47,831 --> 00:42:50,767
weightless.
1128
00:42:50,834 --> 00:42:52,097
CHILDRESS: it would appear
1129
00:42:52,169 --> 00:42:54,104
that the builders at Malta had
1130
00:42:54,171 --> 00:42:56,265
very advanced knowledge of
1131
00:42:56,340 --> 00:42:57,399
things we're just now
1132
00:42:57,474 --> 00:42:58,737
discovering.
1133
00:42:58,809 --> 00:43:00,107
And you would think that they
1134
00:43:00,177 --> 00:43:01,110
got this knowledge from
1135
00:43:01,178 --> 00:43:04,114
extraterrestrials.
1136
00:43:04,181 --> 00:43:05,444
NARRATOR: Enormous blocks of
1137
00:43:05,516 --> 00:43:07,781
stone...
1138
00:43:07,851 --> 00:43:11,117
mysterious carving techniques...
1139
00:43:11,188 --> 00:43:12,781
and mathematical precision that
1140
00:43:12,856 --> 00:43:14,722
rivals anything possible in the
1141
00:43:14,792 --> 00:43:19,127
modern age.
1142
00:43:19,196 --> 00:43:21,131
Might the tools and technology
1143
00:43:21,198 --> 00:43:22,461
that went into building the
1144
00:43:22,533 --> 00:43:24,399
world's most magnificent ancient
1145
00:43:24,468 --> 00:43:26,460
structures have come from
1146
00:43:26,537 --> 00:43:29,405
distant galaxies?
1147
00:43:29,473 --> 00:43:31,305
Or were the ancient engineers
1148
00:43:31,375 --> 00:43:35,403
really extraterrestrial beings?
1149
00:43:35,479 --> 00:43:37,812
Perhaps the answer can be found,
1150
00:43:37,881 --> 00:43:40,942
not out in space but in plain
1151
00:43:41,018 --> 00:43:43,317
sight all over the world...
1152
00:43:43,387 --> 00:43:45,652
an answer which suggests that
1153
00:43:45,723 --> 00:43:47,624
the ancient builders may have
1154
00:43:47,691 --> 00:43:49,922
served to be the architects, not
1155
00:43:49,994 --> 00:43:53,453
of the past, but of our future.
