And why would you bring Occam's Razor into this?

He's been proven wrong and had his 'theories' shoved up his arse on several occasions. He gets money by lying to stupid people.
That's the definition of a grifter.

Ah yes, this bullshite.

Archeologists aren't religious people. Their knowledge isn't indoctrinated into them without anything to support it. There are mountains of data, collected by thousands of people over hundreds of years of research. Do they know everything about everything? No, but Hancock, et al know NOTHING of the scientific data, and they have none of their own. They just throw out 'theories' based on conjecture and incorrect information.

But, dumbasses keep sending them money, so they have no reason to stop.

You act like moving 2.3 million stone blocks averaging 2.5 to 15 tons over many miles with no roads using pulleys and rolling it is plausible

Weird how the Romans and others did that very thing, that no one including your grifter heroes have ever disputed it (because it's well documented) and no one claims they had help from aliens or whatever the frick.

What? Watching Ancient Alien marathons on the History Channel? There is zero chance you've ever looked at actual archeological data.

What about the Gunung Padang Pyramid. Some say it is over 20k years old.

So when he proposed a structure such as Gobekli Tepe in 1995 and was ostracized yet a year later in 1996 he was proven right this confirms he is always incorrect? And the Romans never constructed pyramids the size of the Great pyramid, include the slope to place stones at the top and it is still unexplained. Also I never mentioned aliens and have never watched Ancient Aliens bud, but to immediately rule out a lost civilization is wild when there are tales in each society of a great flood or catastrophe, but you will dismiss it as old folk tales. Lastly, why are cities such as Derinkuyu found? I fail to see why he is a grifter other than you stating, "muh the scientific data" but carbon dating is flawed in that you must have organic material in the site to even begin to guess how old it is.

1000 ton stones ... we have nothing that would move them into place even today and the joints are so tight you can't get a sheet of paper between them.



The ones that big are still sitting in their quarry though, they didn't move them. The Trilithon had smaller stones under 800 tons.

Simple google search says otherwise: "If you're standing outside next to them, you can stick a razor blade or even your hand between the stones because they're so worn and beaten by the wind and by tourists. However, if you go inside, to where the stones are granite rather than sandstone, no, you can't stick a razor blade between them."

Obviously weathering has occurred when you talk about the duration it has been around, but when observing the actual alignment of the stones from the inside it is perfect alignment

This is seen in the Parthenon as well, where stones have a thousandth of an inch precision, but stay mad boss

Illegal Aliens. Andrew Schulz had a bit about this. Think about it. There are pyramids in Mexico and Egypt......

Go reread your own post. Then apply it.

GT was first discovered in the 80's. Hancock's theory that it's left over from some huge catastrophe like the Younger Dryas ice age is provably false. The large system of complexes and enclosures existed thousands of years before, all during and thousands of years after said ice age. You would know this if you followed any actual science on the matter.
quote:

The Romans moved stones that are as big and MUCH bigger. This also flies in the face of Graham's 'theories' on Baalbek in Lebanon. The Romans did in fact build those structures.
quote:

tales in each society of a great flood or catastrophe
Because floods have happened throughout human history, in every part of the world. The aforementioned Egyptians had stories of numerous flood events.
quote:

carbon dating is flawed
And yet you and others seem to believe it when it supports your argument.
quote:

you must have organic material
They do. Follow the actual science and you can read all about how they collect samples, and from where.
quote:

"muh the scientific data"
Yeah, frickin' people and their science, man.

I'm still waiting for any of you tards to explain to me why mainstream science would want to mislead people as you claim they do. You're the one taking people at their word, with no hard evidence to back it up. Not me.

Genesis 6:1-4

1 When human beings began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose. 3 Then the Lord said, “My Spirit will not contend with[a] humans forever, for they are mortal[b]; their days will be a hundred and twenty years.”

4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.

Slaves. Owned by black people.

Al Sharpton said black people built them. For some reason he left out the slave part….

Go figure.

I don't think Occam's Razor applies to this argument, because there's nothing simple about the traditional archaeologists' theories on how they were built.

Can you link these studies or where his theories have been "shoved up his arse" instead of name-calling like a childish leftist? Some of us may be interested.
