194
00:07:30,575 --> 00:07:32,786
surface looks rough, but when
195
00:07:32,786 --> 00:07:35,413
you touch it, it feels as smooth
196
00:07:35,413 --> 00:07:38,792
as a bathroom mirror, which
197
00:07:38,792 --> 00:07:40,710
means some type of a
198
00:07:40,710 --> 00:07:43,380
vitrification process was used.
199
00:07:43,380 --> 00:07:45,173
And at the bottom of where this
200
00:07:45,173 --> 00:07:48,677
alcove was cut out, we can see a
201
00:07:48,677 --> 00:07:50,845
crisscross pattern.
202
00:07:50,845 --> 00:07:52,180
And in my opinion,
203
00:07:52,180 --> 00:07:55,850
they are actually saw marks.
204
00:07:55,850 --> 00:07:58,520
To me, this pattern is
205
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,648
irrefutable proof for ancient

You see, Ollantaytambo is mostly
211
00:08:10,615 --> 00:08:12,867
made out of andesite.
212
00:08:12,867 --> 00:08:14,786
To cut andesite, you need
213
00:08:14,786 --> 00:08:16,121
something which is harder
214
00:08:16,121 --> 00:08:18,164
than andesite.
215
00:08:18,164 --> 00:08:19,332
You could use a diamond, but
216
00:08:19,332 --> 00:08:21,626
there was no tool in Stone Age
217
00:08:21,626 --> 00:08:24,379
time to cut these rocks, so
218
00:08:24,379 --> 00:08:25,880
it must have been an
219
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,924
extraterrestrial tool.

In them, the ancient ancestors,
230
00:08:49,821 --> 00:08:52,157

Children of the Sun was really
245
00:09:27,859 --> 00:09:30,695
some kind of high‐tech device

for cutting stone or levitating
247
00:09:33,698 --> 00:09:35,533
stone, it would probably have
248
00:09:35,533 --> 00:09:36,701
been given to them by

this story about this golden

some type of extraterrestrial
255
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,135

achieve some of those amazing
262
00:10:07,774 --> 00:10:10,068
feats of engineering that we can

fortress.
269
00:10:26,918 --> 00:10:29,671
That, in and of itself, required
270
00:10:29,671 --> 00:10:31,673
more than cranes, more than
271
00:10:31,673 --> 00:10:34,717
lifts, more than scaffolds.
272
00:10:34,717 --> 00:10:37,053
It required something like an
273
00:10:37,053 --> 00:10:39,848
anti‐gravitational device, or a
274
00:10:39,848 --> 00:10:42,100
tractor beam to lift that much
275
00:10:42,100 --> 00:10:45,687
stone that high.
276
00:10:45,687 --> 00:10:48,106
That's why people see this as an

00:14:56,479 --> 00:14:59,107
use of mica embedded in numerous
385
00:14:59,107 --> 00:15:01,442
structures‐‐ a mineral only
386
00:15:01,442 --> 00:15:04,612
found 3,000 miles away in
387
00:15:04,612 --> 00:15:07,782
Brazil. BERGGREEN: Mica has
388
00:15:07,782 --> 00:15:09,784
some electrical properties that
389
00:15:09,784 --> 00:15:11,285
make it very good for being an
390
00:15:11,285 --> 00:15:12,578
insulator.
391
00:15:12,578 --> 00:15:13,955
It resists the transmission of
392
00:15:13,955 --> 00:15:15,164
electricity.
393
00:15:15,164 --> 00:15:16,791
It's also very good at being
394
00:15:16,791 --> 00:15:18,376
able to be stable at high
395
00:15:18,376 --> 00:15:19,836
temperatures so that it can be
396
00:15:19,836 --> 00:15:21,045
used in furnace windows and oven
397
00:15:21,045 --> 00:15:22,296
windows.
398
00:15:22,296 --> 00:15:23,714
It is clear so you can see
399
00:15:23,714 --> 00:15:25,007
through it, and at the same
400
00:15:25,007 --> 00:15:26,217
time, it stands up to the
401
00:15:26,217 --> 00:15:27,426
temperature and electrical, uh,
402
00:15:27,426 --> 00:15:29,512
discharges.
403
00:15:29,512 --> 00:15:31,055
>> COPPENS: So we know that they
404
00:15:31,055 --> 00:15:32,348
must have had a very specific
405
00:15:32,348 --> 00:15:33,516
and good reason to incorporate
406
00:15:33,516 --> 00:15:34,725
it.
407
00:15:34,725 --> 00:15:35,893
And the only possible reasons
408
00:15:35,893 --> 00:15:37,145
really why they would be doing
409
00:15:37,145 --> 00:15:38,354
this is because somehow it was
410
00:15:38,354 --> 00:15:41,566
part of some technology.
411
00:15:41,566 --> 00:15:42,942
>> NARRATOR: Recently,
412
00:15:42,942 --> 00:15:44,318
archeologists have also
413
00:15:44,318 --> 00:15:46,320
discovered large quantities
414
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,822
of mica crystals in a

of the Pyramid of the Sun.
422
00:16:08,759 --> 00:16:10,803
So is it possible that this mica
423
00:16:10,803 --> 00:16:12,763
chamber contained some type of
424
00:16:12,763 --> 00:16:15,600
an energy‐producing device, a
425
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:20,229
power plant that fed some of the
426
00:16:20,229 --> 00:16:22,857
other pyramids?
427
00:16:22,857 --> 00:16:25,860
It is possible.

449
00:17:11,322 --> 00:17:13,491
served another, perhaps more

When you create a structure, you
552
00:21:09,643 --> 00:21:11,520
want the building to be in

harmony with the earth.
554
00:21:16,734 --> 00:21:18,068

00:21:18,068 --> 00:21:21,405
embedded in a space nervous
556
00:21:21,405 --> 00:21:24,158

00:21:24,158 --> 00:21:27,077
system is embedded in a space

559
00:21:30,915 --> 00:21:31,957
system.

that perfectly.

00:22:09,161 --> 00:22:13,123
some 10,000 to 12,000 years ago.
577
00:22:13,123 --> 00:22:15,751
But who, or what, was this
578
00:22:15,751 --> 00:22:17,670
mysterious ancient figure?
579
00:22:20,047 --> 00:22:22,383
According to Hindu beliefs,
580
00:22:22,383 --> 00:22:24,760
Mamuni Mayan is revered as the
581
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,555
Visvakarman‐‐ the lord of
582
00:22:27,555 --> 00:22:30,140
creation‐‐ and the deity who
583
00:22:30,140 --> 00:22:32,059
designed and fabricated the
584
00:22:32,059 --> 00:22:33,727
divine architecture of the
585
00:22:33,727 --> 00:22:35,938
universe.
586
00:22:35,938 --> 00:22:38,315
But might this god really have
587
00:22:38,315 --> 00:22:41,151
been an extraterrestrial entity,
588
00:22:41,151 --> 00:22:42,987
as ancient astronaut theorists
589
00:22:42,987 --> 00:22:46,156
believe?
590
00:22:46,156 --> 00:22:48,325
Researchers point to clues
591
00:22:48,325 --> 00:22:50,327
carved in stone throughout the
592
00:22:50,327 --> 00:22:51,996
ancient Vastu temples of
593
00:22:51,996 --> 00:22:55,082
Vijayanagara.
594
00:22:55,082 --> 00:22:56,750
>> CHILDRESS: Vijayanagara was
595
00:22:56,750 --> 00:22:58,294
thought to be a city that
596
00:22:58,294 --> 00:23:01,797
connected people to the gods.
597
00:23:01,797 --> 00:23:03,924
The gods themselves were said to
598
00:23:03,924 --> 00:23:05,926
have lived in this city‐‐
599
00:23:05,926 --> 00:23:08,929
Shiva and... and Rama.
600
00:23:08,929 --> 00:23:11,098
Many of the strange statues
601
00:23:11,098 --> 00:23:14,184
there are of certain aspects of
602
00:23:14,184 --> 00:23:15,769
Vishnu.
603
00:23:15,769 --> 00:23:18,522
And he looks like some kind of
604
00:23:18,522 --> 00:23:21,358
strange extraterrestrial god.
605
00:23:21,358 --> 00:23:23,193
These are statues that still
606
00:23:23,193 --> 00:23:25,738
exist today at Vijayanagara.
607
00:23:27,531 --> 00:23:29,533
>> B. VIRUPAKSHI: According to
608
00:23:29,533 --> 00:23:31,201
the myths and legends, this is
609
00:23:31,201 --> 00:23:32,578
a very holy place.
610
00:23:32,578 --> 00:23:33,871
Why? Because of Rama, one of
611
00:23:33,871 --> 00:23:35,122
the incarnation of Vishnu.
612
00:23:35,122 --> 00:23:36,206
Rama is a god.
613
00:23:36,206 --> 00:23:37,541
He had been to this place.
614
00:23:37,541 --> 00:23:39,335
That's how this place has become
615
00:23:39,335 --> 00:23:41,086
very sacred.
616
00:23:43,964 --> 00:23:45,132
>> NARRATOR: Further evidence
617
00:23:45,132 --> 00:23:46,508
of the actual nature of the
618
00:23:46,508 --> 00:23:48,802
Hindu gods can be found in
619
00:23:48,802 --> 00:23:51,138
ancient Hindu scriptures.
620
00:23:51,138 --> 00:23:53,724
Epic poems like the Mahabharata
621
00:23:53,724 --> 00:23:56,143
and the Ramayana, and sacred
622
00:23:56,143 --> 00:23:58,646
texts called Vedic literature,
623
00:23:58,646 --> 00:24:01,231
contain multiple references to
624
00:24:01,231 --> 00:24:03,400
flying objects of various shapes
625
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,903
and sizes.
626
00:24:05,903 --> 00:24:07,237
>> PATRICK FLANAGAN: In ancient
627
00:24:07,237 --> 00:24:09,406
Vedic literature, they say that
628
00:24:09,406 --> 00:24:10,574
they had Vimanas, which are
629
00:24:10,574 --> 00:24:14,078
anti‐gravity aircraft, and
630
00:24:14,078 --> 00:24:15,913
that they flew around on them.
631
00:24:15,913 --> 00:24:18,958
And the Vimana's construction is
632
00:24:18,958 --> 00:24:21,377
detailed in the Mahabharata and
633
00:24:21,377 --> 00:24:23,504
some of the other ancient books
634
00:24:23,504 --> 00:24:25,172
that have come to us from
635
00:24:25,172 --> 00:24:27,132
that time.
636
00:24:30,552 --> 00:24:31,845
>> CHILDRESS: At Vijayanagara,
637
00:24:31,845 --> 00:24:34,181
you have the traditional Hindu
638
00:24:34,181 --> 00:24:36,350
Vastu architecture.
639
00:24:36,350 --> 00:24:39,019
You have, therefore, the stone
640
00:24:39,019 --> 00:24:42,606
temples that are, uh, conical in
641
00:24:42,606 --> 00:24:43,440
shape.
642
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,776
So the architecture itself was
643
00:24:45,776 --> 00:24:50,280
sort of a copy of the airships
644
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,783
or rockets or spaceships that
645
00:24:52,783 --> 00:24:54,743
they called Vimanas.
646
00:24:57,454 --> 00:24:59,289
>> BORDEN: At Vijayanagara,
647
00:24:59,289 --> 00:25:00,624
they were using Vastu
648
00:25:00,624 --> 00:25:01,875
technology.
649
00:25:01,875 --> 00:25:04,712
And Vastu technology has been
650
00:25:04,712 --> 00:25:07,548
used to make flying vehicles.
651
00:25:07,548 --> 00:25:09,383
The technology is there to
652
00:25:09,383 --> 00:25:12,720
create weapons, to probably
653
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:16,056
create an energy that could
654
00:25:16,056 --> 00:25:17,683
power a spaceship.
655
00:25:21,103 --> 00:25:23,814
>> VON DANIKEN: The Vimanas we
656
00:25:23,814 --> 00:25:25,983
would call today space shuttle,
657
00:25:25,983 --> 00:25:26,984
flying machines.
658
00:25:26,984 --> 00:25:28,318
Now we have different sort of
659
00:25:28,318 --> 00:25:30,362
space shuttle.
660
00:25:30,362 --> 00:25:31,655
A Russian space shuttle doesn't
661
00:25:31,655 --> 00:25:33,157
look like an American space
662
00:25:33,157 --> 00:25:35,993
shuttle and so on.
663
00:25:35,993 --> 00:25:37,911
So in ancient India, we have
664
00:25:37,911 --> 00:25:39,329
different descriptions of
665
00:25:39,329 --> 00:25:41,665
Vimanas with wings, with all
666
00:25:41,665 --> 00:25:44,126
kinds of lights and so on, and
667
00:25:44,126 --> 00:25:46,754
out of these Vimanas so‐called
668
00:25:46,754 --> 00:25:50,758
gods came.
669
00:25:50,758 --> 00:25:52,760
>> NARRATOR: Might the early
670
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,262
people of South India really
671
00:25:55,262 --> 00:25:56,764
have been taught advanced
672
00:25:56,764 --> 00:25:58,766
building techniques to harness
673
00:25:58,766 --> 00:26:01,852
powerful cosmic energy?
674
00:26:01,852 --> 00:26:03,937
And if so, might this have been
675
00:26:03,937 --> 00:26:06,356
done so that early man could
676
00:26:06,356 --> 00:26:08,108
connect with other distant
677
00:26:08,108 --> 00:26:10,277
worlds, as ancient astronaut
678
00:26:10,277 --> 00:26:12,696
theorists believe?
679
00:26:12,696 --> 00:26:14,114
>> CHILDRESS: Vijayanagara would
680
00:26:14,114 --> 00:26:16,784
have been one of many cities
681
00:26:16,784 --> 00:26:19,703
around the planet built by the
682
00:26:19,703 --> 00:26:21,872
extraterrestrial gods.
683
00:26:21,872 --> 00:26:23,540
It was part of a network of
684
00:26:23,540 --> 00:26:26,001
ancient cities around the planet
685
00:26:26,001 --> 00:26:27,795
that included megalithic cites
686
00:26:27,795 --> 00:26:29,963
in South America, on Pacific
687

00:26:34,051 --> 00:26:35,469
Middle East.
690
00:26:35,469 --> 00:26:36,804
It was one of their special
691
00:26:36,804 --> 00:26:38,806
cities that they had built
692
00:26:38,806 --> 00:26:42,643
thousands of years ago.
693
00:26:42,643 --> 00:26:44,478

694
00:26:44,478 --> 00:26:46,230
really incorporate the wisdom

00:26:56,073 --> 00:26:58,742
evidence of such contact exist
700
00:26:58,742 --> 00:27:01,912
elsewhere in the world?
701
00:27:01,912 --> 00:27:03,747
What if there were recent

Egypt?
705
00:27:16,844 --> 00:27:19,763
>> NARRATOR: Luxor, Egypt.
706
00:27:19,763 --> 00:27:21,849
Here, along the east bank of the
707
00:27:21,849 --> 00:27:23,684
Nile River, lie the
708
00:27:23,684 --> 00:27:25,686
archaeological remains of the
709
00:27:25,686 --> 00:27:29,106
vast Karnak temple complex,

achievement of many generations

00:27:48,458 --> 00:27:50,460
of Egypt's ancient builders.

oversized obelisks, and what's
721
00:27:58,886 --> 00:28:00,888
very amazing about this area is
722
00:28:00,888 --> 00:28:02,389
that it's one of the few places
723
00:28:02,389 --> 00:28:04,558
where over 30 pharaohs
724
00:28:04,558 --> 00:28:06,393
contributed to its sheer size
725
00:28:06,393 --> 00:28:08,061

archaeologists and scholars have
729
00:28:15,569 --> 00:28:17,571
considered Karnak to be one of
730
00:28:17,571 --> 00:28:19,656
the most dramatic examples of
731
00:28:19,656 --> 00:28:21,325
the remarkable technological

clearly of a perfection which is
746
00:28:53,023 --> 00:28:55,692
beautiful and almost makes our

>> ANDREWS: We would look at it
763
00:29:29,142 --> 00:29:30,811
today and say it had to be some
764
00:29:30,811 --> 00:29:31,979
sort of machine that carved
765
00:29:31,979 --> 00:29:34,314
these things out.
766
00:29:34,314 --> 00:29:36,400
For example, there were slots.
767
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,152
They were only .14 inches wide,
768
00:29:39,152 --> 00:29:40,570
half‐inch deep.
769
00:29:40,570 --> 00:29:41,738
When you look inside, you can
770
00:29:41,738 --> 00:29:43,573
see the bottom of 'em were made
771
00:29:43,573 --> 00:29:45,409
by a rotating tool, so this was
772
00:29:45,409 --> 00:29:48,912
a tool that punched in, came
773
00:29:48,912 --> 00:29:50,080
out, stepped down, punched in,
774
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,124
came out.
775
00:29:52,124 --> 00:29:53,583
The human hand, no matter how
776
00:29:53,583 --> 00:29:55,043
good you are, could never do
777
00:29:55,043 --> 00:29:56,920
that.
778
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,922
The tool marks themselves, the
779
00:29:58,922 --> 00:30:00,924
precision, the depth, the
780
00:30:00,924 --> 00:30:02,592
rotating impressions that were
781
00:30:02,592 --> 00:30:07,014
made were not done by hand.
782
00:30:07,014 --> 00:30:09,349
Some of those were so precisely
783
00:30:09,349 --> 00:30:11,268
engraved as to require machine
784
00:30:11,268 --> 00:30:15,439
tools to do it.
785
00:30:15,439 --> 00:30:17,524
The tool kit that we see, that
786
00:30:17,524 --> 00:30:18,525
the ancient Egyptians were
787
00:30:18,525 --> 00:30:20,193
supposed to use‐‐ there is no
788
00:30:20,193 --> 00:30:21,945
way that any of those tools
789
00:30:21,945 --> 00:30:23,113
could produce the results that
790
00:30:23,113 --> 00:30:24,781
we saw.
791
00:30:24,781 --> 00:30:26,616
>> NARRATOR: To many scholars,
792
00:30:26,616 --> 00:30:28,285
the apparent precision used in
793
00:30:28,285 --> 00:30:30,120
the construction of the obelisks
794
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,123
at Karnak suggests a 21st‐
795
00:30:33,123 --> 00:30:37,544
century level of expertise.
796
00:30:37,544 --> 00:30:39,546
>> CHRISTOPHER DUNN: Precision
797
00:30:39,546 --> 00:30:40,714
is what our civilization is
798
00:30:40,714 --> 00:30:42,758
built on.
799
00:30:42,758 --> 00:30:45,552
To craft something to within
800
00:30:45,552 --> 00:30:48,889
2/10,000 of an inch or 1/1,000
801
00:30:48,889 --> 00:30:51,058
of an inch is quite common today
802
00:30:51,058 --> 00:30:53,060
because that tolerance or that
803
00:30:53,060 --> 00:30:55,645
precision is necessary and it
804
00:30:55,645 --> 00:30:56,688
has a purpose.
805
00:30:56,688 --> 00:30:58,482
>> NARRATOR: But how can we
806
00:30:58,482 --> 00:31:00,484
explain such precision in
807
00:31:00,484 --> 00:31:02,319
ancient construction?
808
00:31:02,319 --> 00:31:04,821
>> TSOUKALOS: If you look at the
809
00:31:04,821 --> 00:31:08,158
Ramses statue, it is so perfect
810
00:31:08,158 --> 00:31:09,993
that you wonder how this was
811
00:31:09,993 --> 00:31:12,496
even done with allegedly
812
00:31:12,496 --> 00:31:15,665
primitive tools because today we
813
00:31:15,665 --> 00:31:18,043
could only do this with
814
00:31:18,043 --> 00:31:21,296
machines.
815
00:31:21,296 --> 00:31:22,923
>> DUNN: So the way we check the
816
00:31:22,923 --> 00:31:26,009
symmetry of the Ramses statue is
817
00:31:26,009 --> 00:31:27,928
to take two images of the same
818
00:31:27,928 --> 00:31:29,262
photographs, make
819
00:31:29,262 --> 00:31:31,765
transparencies, and compare the
820
00:31:31,765 --> 00:31:33,600
left to the right.
821
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,103
We flip it over and bring it
822
00:31:36,103 --> 00:31:39,022
over the original, and as we can
823
00:31:39,022 --> 00:31:43,985
see, we have a perfect match.
824
00:31:46,613 --> 00:31:48,615
The ancient Egyptians were very
825
00:31:48,615 --> 00:31:50,367
skilled at working granite.
826
00:31:50,367 --> 00:31:53,370
I cannot see how they could have
827
00:31:53,370 --> 00:31:56,373
created what they created with
828
00:31:56,373 --> 00:31:58,041
the tools that are commonly
829
00:31:58,041 --> 00:32:00,335
accepted to have been in the
830
00:32:00,335 --> 00:32:02,712
ancient Egyptians' toolbox, such
831
00:32:02,712 --> 00:32:05,048
as copper chisels or stone
832
00:32:05,048 --> 00:32:08,802
chisels, wooden mallets, stone
833
00:32:08,802 --> 00:32:11,096
balls.
834
00:32:12,639 --> 00:32:14,808
>> NARRATOR: But if, as many
835
00:32:14,808 --> 00:32:16,476
historians and archaeologists
836
00:32:16,476 --> 00:32:18,979
contend, the ancient builders
837
00:32:18,979 --> 00:32:20,480
did not possess the equivalent
838
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,066
of modern tools, how were these
839
00:32:23,066 --> 00:32:24,484
monuments built with such
840
00:32:24,484 --> 00:32:27,737
mathematical precision?
841
00:32:27,737 --> 00:32:29,823
Perhaps the answer can be found
842
00:32:29,823 --> 00:32:31,575
by comparing an example of
843
00:32:31,575 --> 00:32:33,827
ancient sculpture with one made
844
00:32:33,827 --> 00:32:36,538
by more modern methods.
845
00:32:38,248 --> 00:32:40,417
>> DUNN: We can compare the
846
00:32:40,417 --> 00:32:41,877
aluminum model, the face
847
00:32:41,877 --> 00:32:44,171
machine, the striations coming
848
00:32:44,171 --> 00:32:47,174
down the face with the
849
00:32:47,174 --> 00:32:49,009
striations coming down the face
850
00:32:49,009 --> 00:32:51,428
of the statue at Karnak in
851
00:32:51,428 --> 00:32:54,681
Egypt, and also the tool marks,
852
00:32:54,681 --> 00:32:56,016
so where we see above the
853
00:32:56,016 --> 00:32:59,186
eyebrow, the dig in right there,
854
00:32:59,186 --> 00:33:01,062
where the‐‐ kind of shows us
855
00:33:01,062 --> 00:33:02,522
what kind of tools or the shape
856
00:33:02,522 --> 00:33:06,276
of the tools that they used.
857
00:33:06,276 --> 00:33:09,196
So the elements that bring this
858
00:33:09,196 --> 00:33:12,782
machining to ancient statue are
859
00:33:12,782 --> 00:33:16,119
not just the symmetry but also
860
00:33:16,119 --> 00:33:20,123
the geometry, the precision, and
861
00:33:20,123 --> 00:33:22,459
the tool marks, and we have all
862
00:33:22,459 --> 00:33:24,502
three elements in modern
863
00:33:24,502 --> 00:33:28,340
machining and ancient statuary.
864
00:33:30,217 --> 00:33:32,219
It's an enormously difficult
865
00:33:32,219 --> 00:33:35,222
thing to do by hand without
866
00:33:35,222 --> 00:33:37,057
introducing some mechanical
867
00:33:37,057 --> 00:33:38,308
systems.
868
00:33:38,308 --> 00:33:43,230
Seems to me to be impossible.

marks seen on the Ramses statue
871
00:33:49,486 --> 00:33:50,820
appear identical to those made
872
00:33:50,820 --> 00:33:53,490
by modern methods, wouldn't it
873
00:33:53,490 --> 00:33:55,325
prove that the ancient builders
874
00:33:55,325 --> 00:33:57,994
had access to machines and
875
00:33:57,994 --> 00:34:00,205
perhaps even electricity?
876
00:34:02,749 --> 00:34:03,917
>> CHILDRESS: They allegedly
877
00:34:03,917 --> 00:34:05,877
did not have electricity,

power tools.
879
00:34:07,254 --> 00:34:08,588
Supposedly, they didn't have
880
00:34:08,588 --> 00:34:10,173
diamond saws.
881
00:34:10,173 --> 00:34:11,758
But yet, they're doing things
882
00:34:11,758 --> 00:34:14,427
that would require precision
883
00:34:14,427 --> 00:34:17,097
work, precision tools.
884
00:34:17,097 --> 00:34:18,431
So where did they get those
885
00:34:18,431 --> 00:34:19,266
things?
886
00:34:19,266 --> 00:34:20,600
How could they have had these
887
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,852
advanced machining tools that
888
00:34:22,852 --> 00:34:24,104
we've only just acquired

ourselves today in our

civilization?
891
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,276
So one answer would have to be
892
00:34:29,276 --> 00:34:31,027
they'd gotten it from ancient
893
00:34:31,027 --> 00:34:33,363
aliens.

theorists, the answer is yes.
902

00:36:55,797 --> 00:36:57,507
advanced technology, where did
959
00:36:57,507 --> 00:36:59,759
it come from?
960
00:36:59,759 --> 00:37:01,469
Researchers believe answers may
961
00:37:01,469 --> 00:37:04,347
be found among Malta's numerous
962
00:37:04,347 --> 00:37:05,598
mysteries‐‐ including the
963
00:37:05,598 --> 00:37:07,976
so‐called cart ruts, which can
964
00:37:07,976 --> 00:37:10,395
be found all over Malta.
965
00:37:13,398 --> 00:37:14,858
>> ENEIX: These parallel
966
00:37:14,858 --> 00:37:16,776
incisions in the bedrock have
967
00:37:16,776 --> 00:37:18,236
been identified as cart ruts
968
00:37:18,236 --> 00:37:19,362
because that's what
969
00:37:19,362 --> 00:37:21,030
they look like.
970
00:37:21,030 --> 00:37:22,449
What they really were,
971
00:37:22,449 --> 00:37:23,366
what their purpose was,
972
00:37:23,366 --> 00:37:24,576
we don't know.
973
00:37:24,576 --> 00:37:26,870
There's nothing written.

>> ANDREWS: The cart ruts on
975
00:37:27,871 --> 00:37:32,459
Malta are about four feet wide.
976
00:37:32,459 --> 00:37:35,462
They're uniformly spaced.
977
00:37:35,462 --> 00:37:37,380
Some of them run hundreds of
978
00:37:37,380 --> 00:37:38,465
yards.
979
00:37:38,465 --> 00:37:40,842
Some of them run miles.
980
00:37:40,842 --> 00:37:42,469
According to the studies of
981
00:37:42,469 --> 00:37:43,970
them, they probably were there
982
00:37:43,970 --> 00:37:46,473
up to 10,000 years ago, because
983
00:37:46,473 --> 00:37:48,391
some of the ancient temples are
984
00:37:48,391 --> 00:37:51,644
built right on top of the ruts.
985

>> NARRATOR: Ancient astronaut
986
00:37:52,937 --> 00:37:55,482
theorists believe the cart ruts
987
00:37:55,482 --> 00:37:58,401
may in fact be evidence that
988
00:37:58,401 --> 00:38:00,069
Malta was one of Earth's
989
00:38:00,069 --> 00:38:03,740
earliest industrial work sites.
990
00:38:03,740 --> 00:38:04,908
>> CHILDRESS: It seems like what
991
00:38:04,908 --> 00:38:07,577
these cart ruts really were was
992
00:38:07,577 --> 00:38:10,413
some kind of ancient, uh,
993
00:38:10,413 --> 00:38:12,457
railway.
994
00:38:12,457 --> 00:38:14,542
And this railway was then to
995
00:38:14,542 --> 00:38:17,420
move heavy machinery, much as we
996
00:38:17,420 --> 00:38:19,380
would use today in a mining
997
00:38:19,380 --> 00:38:22,759
operation, even the way rockets
998
00:38:22,759 --> 00:38:24,928
are rolled out onto
999
00:38:24,928 --> 00:38:28,431
a launch pad.
1000
00:38:28,431 --> 00:38:29,933

1001
00:38:29,933 --> 00:38:31,518
the use of advanced technology
1002
00:38:31,518 --> 00:38:33,186
on Malta can be found
1003
00:38:33,186 --> 00:38:35,146
underground.
1004
00:38:35,146 --> 00:38:38,191
In 1902, construction workers,
1005
00:38:38,191 --> 00:38:39,943
while building the foundation
1006
00:38:39,943 --> 00:38:42,779
for several houses, accidentally
1007
00:38:42,779 --> 00:38:44,614
discovered a mysterious
1008
00:38:44,614 --> 00:38:46,783
underground sanctuary dating to
1009
00:38:46,783 --> 00:38:49,619
2500 B. C.
1010
00:38:49,619 --> 00:38:51,538
Called the Hypogeum, the
1011
00:38:51,538 --> 00:38:53,122
subterranean structure was
1012
00:38:53,122 --> 00:38:54,958
revealed to be three levels
1013
00:38:54,958 --> 00:38:58,419
deep... all hewn from solid
1014
00:38:58,419 --> 00:38:59,879
stone.
1015
00:38:59,879 --> 00:39:01,047
>> ENEIX: It's been estimated
1016
00:39:01,047 --> 00:39:02,382
that they removed more than
1017
00:39:02,382 --> 00:39:04,467
2,000 tons of stone from these
1018
00:39:04,467 --> 00:39:06,886
subterranean chambers to create
1019
00:39:06,886 --> 00:39:09,639
a space that beautifully
1020
00:39:09,639 --> 00:39:11,099
replicates the temples above
1021
00:39:11,099 --> 00:39:13,351
ground.
1022
00:39:15,895 --> 00:39:17,146
>> NARRATOR: Perhaps one of the
1023
00:39:17,146 --> 00:39:18,898
greatest mysteries concerning
1024
00:39:18,898 --> 00:39:21,150
the Hypogeum involve the
1025
00:39:21,150 --> 00:39:23,570
acoustical properties in what is
1026
00:39:23,570 --> 00:39:26,281
called the "Oracle Room."
1027
00:39:28,533 --> 00:39:29,909
>> COLLINS: The acoustical
1028
00:39:29,909 --> 00:39:31,536
properties within this are
1029
00:39:31,536 --> 00:39:33,538
absolutely extraordinary,
1030
00:39:33,538 --> 00:39:35,164
because what happens is the...
1031
00:39:35,164 --> 00:39:37,000
if a person is within the
1032
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,877
Oracle Room, the way that their
1033
00:39:38,877 --> 00:39:40,837
voice is carried is heard
1034
00:39:40,837 --> 00:39:44,591
within the whole of the complex.
1035
00:39:44,591 --> 00:39:45,925
>> HENRY: The ancients were
1036
00:39:45,925 --> 00:39:47,594
using this profound sound
1037
00:39:47,594 --> 00:39:49,596
technology in order to put
1038
00:39:49,596 --> 00:39:50,930
themselves into a deep state of
1039
00:39:50,930 --> 00:39:53,516
trance in order to access
1040
00:39:53,516 --> 00:39:55,602
higher human consciousness.
1041
00:39:55,602 --> 00:39:56,936
They wanted to go deep within in
1042
00:39:56,936 --> 00:39:58,521
order to connect themselves with
1043
00:39:58,521 --> 00:40:02,317
star energy.
1044
00:40:02,317 --> 00:40:03,359
>> NARRATOR: Might the Oracle
1045
00:40:03,359 --> 00:40:04,777
Room have been used to
1046
00:40:04,777 --> 00:40:07,697
communicate with ancient gods?
1047
00:40:07,697 --> 00:40:09,574
Or, perhaps, celestial
1048
00:40:09,574 --> 00:40:11,701
ancestors?
1049
00:40:11,701 --> 00:40:13,578
Or do its advanced acoustics
1050
00:40:13,578 --> 00:40:16,205
suggest that early Maltese
1051
00:40:16,205 --> 00:40:18,082
people had mastered the science
1052
00:40:18,082 --> 00:40:21,002
of sonic manipulation, the
1053
00:40:21,002 --> 00:40:22,629
ability to manipulate solid
1054
00:40:22,629 --> 00:40:24,631
matter through audio
1055
00:40:24,631 --> 00:40:26,966
frequencies?
1056
00:40:26,966 --> 00:40:28,509
>> FLANAGAN: One of the main
1057
00:40:28,509 --> 00:40:29,969
things that I've realized is
1058
00:40:29,969 --> 00:40:31,638
that they're using something
1059
00:40:31,638 --> 00:40:35,016
called fractal nonlinear
1060
00:40:35,016 --> 00:40:36,517
resonance.
1061
00:40:36,517 --> 00:40:38,645
And we're now discovering in the
1062
00:40:38,645 --> 00:40:40,897
field of material science that
1063
00:40:40,897 --> 00:40:44,651
nonlinear resonances of sound
1064
00:40:44,651 --> 00:40:47,904
waves, microwaves, magnetic
1065
00:40:47,904 --> 00:40:50,615
waves, that we are able to
1066
00:40:50,615 --> 00:40:53,826
actually change matter in ways
1067
00:40:53,826 --> 00:40:56,913
that we never dreamed possible.
1068
00:40:56,913 --> 00:40:58,665
>> NARRATOR: If the Oracle Room
1069
00:40:58,665 --> 00:41:00,917
was used to harness the power of
1070
00:41:00,917 --> 00:41:03,044
audio waves, as many ancient
1071
00:41:03,044 --> 00:41:05,546
astronaut theorists believe, is
1072
00:41:05,546 --> 00:41:08,174
it possible the prehistoric
1073
00:41:08,174 --> 00:41:10,593
builders used sonic technology
1074
00:41:10,593 --> 00:41:13,012
to help build Malta's mammoth
1075
00:41:13,012 --> 00:41:14,555
temples?
1076
00:41:14,555 --> 00:41:15,848
>> CHILDRESS: The builders had
1077
00:41:15,848 --> 00:41:17,183
this advanced knowledge of
1078
00:41:17,183 --> 00:41:20,186
sonic technology.
1079
00:41:20,186 --> 00:41:23,106
And, in fact, sound technology
1080
00:41:23,106 --> 00:41:25,608
can be used for all kinds of
1081
00:41:25,608 --> 00:41:26,651
applications, including
1082
00:41:26,651 --> 00:41:30,029
levitation or antigravity.
1083

>> COLLINS: All around the
1084
00:41:31,322 --> 00:41:33,616
world, there are myths and
1085
00:41:33,616 --> 00:41:36,995
legends relating to how large
1086
00:41:36,995 --> 00:41:40,206
structures came into being.
1087
00:41:40,206 --> 00:41:41,958
They talk about the movement of
1088
00:41:41,958 --> 00:41:44,627
stones through the use of sound,
1089
00:41:44,627 --> 00:41:48,047
about the use of instruments or
1090
00:41:48,047 --> 00:41:51,300
the banging, the ringing...
1091
00:41:51,300 --> 00:41:53,720
that will elevate stones enough
1092
00:41:53,720 --> 00:41:55,596
so that they can be pushed as if
1093
00:41:55,596 --> 00:41:58,266
they've become completely
1094
00:41:58,266 --> 00:42:01,310
weightless.
1095
00:42:01,310 --> 00:42:02,645
>> CHILDRESS: It would appear
1096
00:42:02,645 --> 00:42:04,689
that the builders at Malta had
1097
00:42:04,689 --> 00:42:06,899
very advanced knowledge of
1098
00:42:06,899 --> 00:42:07,984
things we're just now
1099

discovering.
1100
00:42:09,318 --> 00:42:10,695
And you would think that they
1101
00:42:10,695 --> 00:42:11,654
got this knowledge from
1102
00:42:11,654 --> 00:42:14,657
extraterrestrials.
1103

mysterious carving techniques...
1106
00:42:21,706 --> 00:42:23,374
and mathematical precision that
1107
00:42:23,374 --> 00:42:25,293
rivals anything possible in the

00:42:25,293 --> 00:42:27,211
modern age.
1109
00:42:29,630 --> 00:42:31,674
Might the tools and technology

00:42:31,674 --> 00:42:33,009
that went into building the
1111
00:42:33,009 --> 00:42:34,844
world's most magnificent ancient
1112
00:42:34,844 --> 00:42:37,013
structures have come from
1113
00:42:37,013 --> 00:42:39,932
distant galaxies?
1114
00:42:39,932 --> 00:42:41,851
Or were the ancient engineers
1115
00:42:41,851 --> 00:42:45,897
really extraterrestrial beings?
1116
00:42:45,897 --> 00:42:48,399
Perhaps the answer can be found,
1117
00:42:48,399 --> 00:42:51,527
not out in space but in plain
1118
00:42:51,527 --> 00:42:53,905
sight all over the world‐‐
1119
00:42:53,905 --> 00:42:56,199
an answer which suggests that
1120
00:42:56,199 --> 00:42:58,201
the ancient builders may have
1121
00:42:58,201 --> 00:43:00,536
served to be the architects, not
1122
00:43:00,536 --> 00:43:04,040
of the past, but of our future.
