In the Luxor temple, one of the monuments of Ramses II, seemingly ordinary at first glance, contains several unusual features at once, which can hardly be called mere coincidences.
Some supporters of the version that ancient people had more advanced technologies than we think, quite often cite this monument as an example. And here I have given a few examples of why they think so.
Amazing symmetry
If you look closely at the depicted face of Ramses II, you can say that it is symmetrical, all the cases … But the human eye does not notice that it is perfectly symmetrical, down to a millimeter! This was clarified by photometric analysis and overlaying the image of one part of the face on another.
What is surprising here is that a statue of this size was carved with these tools … Tobite with a chisel and stone. At best, instead of a stone, there was a semblance of a modern hammer.
Yes, yes, this is what the Egyptians used 3000 years ago).
The ancient masters achieved accuracy in symmetry to one millimeter in this way).

Another interesting feature of this monument is its accuracy in shape, that is, any part of Ramses's face can be described with circles of the same diameter, both in profile and in full face.
The most interesting
I did not specifically mention at the beginning that the statue was made of granite. Yes, yes, from the very rock that is stronger than iron.
And now let's combine all these facts: Three thousand years ago, in ancient Egypt, with a primitive chisel and stone, people carved the face of their pharaoh on granite with perfect symmetry, down to a millimeter!
Yes, really … By the way, at present, granite is processed, approximately, as shown in the picture below.
That is, using powerful saws, diamond blades, and using a stream of water to avoid overheating.
No one can really explain how the Egyptians managed to do this 3000 years ago. Unless to accept the idea that in Ancient Egypt there were sooooo good masters of their craft, or technologies that are not known to us.
