Hello everyone, today we will consider the technical capabilities of ancient civilizations using the example of several interesting artifacts.
The official history assures us that our civilization has evolved gradually, starting from complete primitiveness. But when studying some artifacts, it becomes clear that this theory, if not erroneous, has a strong flaw.
Our ancestors did not have any problems making objects from the strongest types of stone, as well as their perfect processing.
However, the possibilities of ancient civilizations are just beginning.
They could not only make and process utensils from granite or basalt, but also create even holes in it, while maintaining certain angles of inclination.
Such operations were carried out about 2-5 thousand years ago, which is amazing. Did our ancestors easily do things that are difficult in our time?

I draw a conclusion about lightness based on the fact that similar technologies were used to create ordinary artifacts of everyday life.
These are not even ritual objects or great values, they are commonplace dishes used every day.
In addition to tableware, there are more interesting artifacts. A large Egyptian column can be found in the British Museum.
Look closely at the performance of its upper part.
Complex shape, high-quality workmanship, and all together with perfect symmetry. What technologies were used to create all this? Did the ancient masters make such masterpieces using primitive tools?
In some museums artifacts are kept, the manufacturing method of which is still unknown to us. Can you imagine, we cannot explain their appearance with our knowledge and technology.
This artifact includes a vase from a museum in Ontario. How could you make so many straight and round holes without damaging the vase? Scientists can only shrug their hands.
Sometimes there are such artifacts, the existence of which is a continuous question. It is impossible to determine not only the method of their manufacture, but also the purpose.
One of these artifacts is kept in the Heraklion Museum.
Let's summarize a little. When studying artifacts from around the world, we can conclude that ancient civilizations were much better developed than we now imagine.
You can offer an alternative way to create such artifacts. They could have been made by an unknown advanced civilization, well, or it helped create them for our ancestors.
This moment is still a big question.
