Occultists have long said that even the Atlanteans and the ancient Egyptians, when building their sanctuaries, were able to move their massive stone parts with the help of sound, that is, they owned acoustic levitation.
Serious science is extremely skeptical about this, giving preference to historical reconstructions depicting tens of thousands of slaves involved in construction, and ropes with blocks. How were huge boulders similar to this stone from the Baalbek complex moved?
Flying stones
In the early 1930s, Swedish aircraft engineer Henri Kjelson watched in Tibet as monks erect a temple on a rock 400 meters high. The stone - about one and a half meters in diameter - was dragged by the yak to a small horizontal platform located 100 meters from the rock. Then the stone was dumped into a pit corresponding to the size of the stone and 15 centimeters deep.
In 63 meters from the pit (the engineer accurately measured all the distances) there were 19 musicians, and behind them - 200 monks, located along radial lines - several people on each. The angle between the lines was five degrees. The stone lay at the center of this formation.
The musicians had 13 large drums suspended from wooden beams and facing the sounding surface of the pit with the stone. Between the drums, in different places, there were six large metal pipes, also directed with sockets to the pit. There were two musicians standing near each trumpet, blowing it in turn. On a special command, the whole orchestra began to play loudly, and the chorus of monks - to sing in unison. And so, as Henry Kjelson said, four minutes later, when the sound reached its maximum, the boulder in the hole began to swing by itself and suddenly flew off in a parabola straight to the top of the rock!

In this way, according to Henry's story, the monks lifted five or six huge boulders to the temple under construction every hour!
What's the focus?
Being an engineer, besides an aviation one. Kjelson tried to explain the incredible phenomenon in terms of common sense. Henry knew perfectly well that every little thing mattered when studying something out of the ordinary. Those who are connected with aviation know that very often it is “little things” that are paid for by the lives of pilots and passengers.
Kjelson measured all distances - from the pit to the rock, from the pit to the standing musicians and monks, and so on and got numbers, all multiples of PI, as well as the proportions of the golden ratio and 5.024 - the product of PI and the golden ratio.
The stone was in the center of the circle formed by the orchestra and monks, who sent sound vibrations to the pit - the reflector of these vibrations. It was they who raised the boulder 400 meters! The sounds grew smoothly (four minutes, or 240 seconds), were quite beautiful, and the vibrations were harmonious. The result is such a creative effect. Precisely the creator - after all, the construction of a sacred temple was underway!
The stone took off in a parabola - at first it went almost vertically (vibrations, reflected from the rock, did not allow the boulder to approach it), then it began to deviate towards the top. Closer to the rock there were a smaller number of monks on the lines-radii, therefore, the vibrations and their reflections were weaker, and towards the top their number generally began to fall sharply, and the stone, following the path of least resistance, exactly fell on the site of the construction of the sanctuary!
It is likely that in the same way the ancient builders of the pyramids and other global structures moved heavy boulders over considerable distances and great heights.
Triumphant experiment
Physicists, in general, admitted the possibility of controlled acoustic levitation. Moreover, they mastered the technology of controlling it first in one and then in two planes.
Probably many have seen macro video with a water droplet hanging in the air. Such experiments were carried out, for example, by scientists from Switzerland. But for a long time no one managed to achieve three-plane process control.
And in January of this year, experts from the University of Tokyo Yoichi Ochiei, Takayuki Hoshi and Yun Rekimoto made small objects of various shapes and masses float in space with the help of sound waves. Japanese matrices of directional sound emitters, located at specific points, allow them to move along complex paths.
At first, scientists operated on the already familiar water droplets, pieces of polystyrene with a diameter of 0.6 to 2 millimeters, as well as small radio components, but the crown of a series of experiments was the placing of a cube from a children's designer on the top of a toy pyramid.
Realities and prospects
Japanese experts say that their system for manipulating objects in space has two original features. The force acting on an object is the result of the addition of several directed beams of ultrasonic waves. This allows you to get a standing sound wave and fix its minima and maxima at strictly defined points in space. With the help of one or more directional emitters, the Japanese change the parameters of this standing sound wave, make it move in space along the trajectory they need, which leads to the movement of the object held by the wave.
Specifically, in the experiments, four speakers were used, emitting sound waves with a frequency of more than 20 kilohertz, which are inaudible to the human ear and emanate from four sides, intersecting with each other in a confined space. Using sound of different power, they are able to move objects of different shapes, made of materials with different densities, while controlling their position in space with millimeter precision.
Experimenters assure that after a while they will be able to manipulate objects of any mass and volume in the same way. It remains only to learn how to select the sound of a certain frequency and power. They also say that acoustic levitation will help in the future to completely overcome gravity. The use of this technology to create a new type of aircraft has already interested NASA engineers.
As for its use in the construction business in antiquity, the authors described it in different ways. The medieval Arab scholar al-Masoudi wrote that at first they put a "magic papyrus" under the stone, then hit it with a metal rod. This allowed the rock to lift off the ground and float along a stone-paved path bounded by metal poles. So the megalith moved along the path for a distance of about 50 meters, and then dropped to the ground. The process was repeated every time until the stone was placed in the right place.
In our time, no one will, I suppose, bang with wands and blow on copper pipes. Most likely, the Japanese will build something very high-tech. Of course, if everything goes according to plan.
