Baalbek: The most massive stones on planet Earth

[Skywizard]

Located in present-day Lebanon, this millenarian city is one of the most important
archaeological sites of the near east.

It was one of the most important ancient Roman cities in the Near East and was previously occupied by the Greeks. Some archaeologists argue that it was consecrated by the Phoenicians to the worship of the god Baal. No one knows the origin of the city although numerous theories have been proposed.

According to conventional archaeologists, it was a Phoenician sanctuary dedicated to the god Baal; it was a Greek City called Heliopolis (City of the Sun) and since the time of Emperor Augustus, it was a Roman colony. The truth is, the exact age remains a mystery, but some researchers consider this ancient megalithic site as being at least 12.000 years old but could be over 20,000 years old.

Among the most intriguing of these megaliths is the Trilithon, and here is the cool part: three colossal blocks measuring 22 meters in length, 4.5 m high and 3.5 m wide. Their weight ranges between one and two thousand tons. These three huge megaliths tons on a row of six blocks of granite that measure each, 10 meters in length and 4 height and weighing over 300 tons.

Baalbek is an ancient city out of this world.

Supposedly carved from solid stone by "cavemen" -- if our paradigmatic timeline of human history as our "experts' see it is to be believed ... Just more blatantly ignored evidence of past advanced civilizations ...

An alternative theory as to "how" these huge stones were carved ... some have considered that these huge stones were "cast" somehow like we would do with concrete these days to build an overpass. The ultimate question remains - why use a giant, impossible to use / move / create structure, when using smaller stones would be much easier and achieve the same effect ???

Either A) they had tech, know-how, engineering skills, etc and it was NOT hard for them to create and wield these massive blocks or ...
B) It was incredibly difficult, and we can't possibly imagine the motivation for why they would need such structures.

Same with all the pyramids.

Trovanti Museum Natural Reserve. Romania

Posted on: 06.08.2016 / Comments: No comments / Categories: Europe
This unusual phenomenon proves once again that nature is a living organism, in which even stones can move and grow in the truest sense of this word! These living stones are called trovants. Trovanti Museum Natural Reserve, a place of accumulation of such strange stone beings, is located in the south of Romania, among the sand quarries of the Vâlcea district near the village of Costeşti. For the first time, local residents paid attention to them when have noticed that the rounded stones grow up a little after each new rainy day. Size of trovants ranges from a few grams to several tons, and the largest of the samples reach a height of 10 meters. It is worth noting an important detail – these huge boulders were just small stones many years ago.

Interestingly, the smaller the stone, the faster it grows. Trovant growth process can be compared with the formation of pearl around a speck of dust fallen into the shell. Thus, on a place of cleavage of boulders, you can detect a concentric zonation resembling tree rings. As a rule, the stones have a rounded or streamline shape. However, they are growing unevenly, and so often take the most bizarre forms. But these stones are not just growing like mushrooms, some trovants, like the famous sailing stones of Death Valley in California, change their location sometimes and move from place to place. Moreover, they are able to multiply! Such a form of life seems to be inexplicable or even extraterrestrial! Creepy!

Geologists do not console themselves with an illusion that trovants are living creatures. They explain growth of the stones due to high content of various mineral salts under their shell. When the surface is wet, the chemical compounds begin to expand and press on sand, causing the stone to “grow.” Thus, at a certain moment, the bulge, which is formed on the surface of the stone from the side which gets wet, is gradually increasing. And when this bulge reaches a relatively large size, under the force of earth’s gravity it leaves the parent stone.

So, a young separated tovant already has a developed kernel covered with a thin layer of sand – that is, it doesn’t differ from any other trovant now. And even if the researchers were able to explain the expansion of stones, the division of the solid kernel remains an enigma to this day.

The process of reproduction of trovants can be compared with budding. Summarizing, we can list – these stones grow; small stones grow faster than larger ones; these stones multiply; these stones move in any direction for considerable distances, even uphill. All of these factors make us believe that the stones are really alive, and represent a kind of inorganic form of life.

Today, Trovanti Museum Natural Reserve – is one of the most important attractions in Central Romania. Tourists from all over the world come to gaze at the unusual stones. Resourceful Romanians make cute souvenirs and ornaments from small trovants, so you can bring a piece of stone miracle from the trip to Vâlcea. Many owners of such stones souvenirs argue that little trovants, when wet, start to grow, and even sometimes move around the house arbitrarily that produces quite an eerie impression.

Similar stones can be also found in other countries of the world, for example, in Russia, in the village of Andreevka (Oryol Oblast).

Some of the stones at Mt Shoria are considerably larger than those at Baalbek. I have read estimates that some are 3 times as heavy as the stones at Baalbek. Upwards of 3000 tons. And Mt Shoria is truly out in the boondocks. The stones at Shoria are also several layers tall.

We must acknowledge that our ancient ancestors all over the world knew how to easily move massive stones that we do not know how to do. How did they cut them to such precise dimensions and then move them with such ease? Boggling.

As a child we played an interesting parlor game. Someone would sit in a chair and one person on each side of the chair would then try to lift the chair and person into the air . Very difficult to do. Then the two people on each side of the chair would put their hands on top of the sitter's head for at least 30 seconds and say a simple chant. I don't know if the chant is necessary or just part of the parlor game. Then, quickly, the two lifters would again attempt to lift the chair and whomever was in it. It was always much easier, and I do mean much easier, to do the lift. I suspect some technique like that was used to lift the stones. Just another theory.

It is unfortunate that virtually no advanced machinery has been discovered. Could have been done with machines. After reading the Christopher Dunn book I would love to get a peek at the Egyptian machine that was used to drill granite so fast. Or the machine that was used to dress the stones at Baalbek before moving.

Baalbek is on my bucket list.

What you wrote about Mt. Shorya is true.There also a short movie om youtube with a Russian professor (the man with the beard and camo jacket in posted photo) which make studies on that "buildings".

We are also played that game in Romania,but I didn't play it personally.The difference was that we didn't do the chant.We simply put the hands (palms) above the top of the kid from the chair,as you did,but counting to 10 and the weight almost vanish.

Enigma, would you care to share the chant you said as a kid ?

Thanks for shring those informations !

All totally mind stretch images, great OP

This image below could hold some clues.
If it was possible to excavate down along the side, exposing the burred portion and the stratification of soil layers. we could see how it has become burred one end.
I mean was it natural or some mistake in moving it.
Could see if it was a dug hole or vibrations caused it to sink?
might give some insight.




Seeing stones of this size and wondering how they where moved, always make me think of Thaumaturgy.
Moving a large object by making and moving small version made from the big object.

Working with the principles of
'Once together-always together'
and
'like attracts like'.
Sounds a bit like 'Entanglement ha!

I think they where masters of sound and resonance.

Hi ElfeMya,
In the following I'l try to be more accurate as possible.I don't know if this play is aplicable to mature,but it worth a try.

We use a classic wooden four legs chair and 29 kids with close ages.
- 1 kid is sitting on the chair;
- 4 kids hold the lowest part of each chair's leg;
- 4 kids hold their each both hands uspide down above the head of the sitting kids,forming a stack/pile of hands one above the other,but not touching it.When this formation is on position these 4 kids start to count loud to ten in the same time.When the count is ready,instantly they withdraw their hands and the other four kids,in the same time,lift the chair almost instantly when the kids withdraw their hands.
In 99% of the cases they succeed.

The other 20 kids are watching and joking and laughing and all the other stuff...

Perhaps the our counting replace enigma3's chant.

I hope this info was helpful.

Sort of this kind of chair

Thank you, EFO, for posting this most amazing video!

The stones are actually concrete made by pouring rock and lime into it. That is why there is no gap between the rock layers all the ancient sites blocks are made this way. To those who say not true the proof is the weight of the rock it is 1/10 the weight it should be there were made using baskets to pour the rock .

The Great Wall is not that ancient why because it was built using bricks if it was ancient the bricks would be Poured with no gaps between the layers.

There are power points around the world on the harmonic grid Stonehenge is built on one and the giants causeway in Northern Ireland these are power points like pressure points of the body .there is a lot to this topic and I do not know it all look up tesla and Bruce Cathie .

With Baalbek I have to disagree. No pouring and no 10th of the Weight here !!!
The Stone of the pregnant Women (حجر الحبلى Hadschar al-Hubla) or sometimes Stone of the South wheights 1000 tons (1.000.000 kg) and is still in the querry where it has been cut out (Sandstone). The Querry is about 900 meters away from the Temple Platform.


the same goes for her Sisterstone that was discovered 1990 and wheights unbelievable 1242 tons (1.242.000 kg).
19,5–20,5 m length 4,34–4,56 m broad 4,5 m high typical Sandstone and still in the quarry:


In 2014 a Libanese-german Team found another Monolith made out of sandstone in this Quarry that weights 1650 tons (1.650.000 kg). This one is 19,6 m length, 6 m broad and 5,5 m high. sandstone of Course. It´s called: The Stone Of Janeen. It´s the heaviest cut Stone that is officially recognised.

read WHy the pharods built the pryminads with fake stone
by joseph davidovits

All the ancient sites were built this way using a small basket instead of a crane

they actually built a wall using this method in france to prove it all the stone are fake basically concrete from
every country around the world

i think i read that a team of hundred built them in couple weeks why so slow it take time for the concrete to set so they built it up in stages the designers were
very skilled .

i saw a tv program were they could not even build a small pryminad with rollers ramps and lots people i think in the end they brought a small crane and equipment

[Justplain]

There is evidence that some ancient stone work is poured, but the baalbek stones were quarried, as were most of the egyptian works. NewEarth vids show a quarry near the black sea that clearly shows cut marks in the stone that are thinner and more precise than anything we produce today.

Another startling thing about ancient megalithic structures are the underground communities, some which appear to be older than we would ever believe

Megalithic structures point to civilizations dating back over possibly millions of years:

http://earthbeforeflood.com/who_and_...c_complex.html

[Sunny-side-up]

Yes some poured, some chiselled and some very finely cut with very thin blades?
I still think by some ways we now not!
So not ALL this way or that, a mixture.

It's not just the moving of these items that is amazing, they had to be cut (those not poured that is) from the bedrock?

How to do that?
If cut in a horizontal position I would guess the item would have to be cut free underneath first, installing supports as they go (also giving it a finished surface as they go).
Next digging away the sides and last the top.
Then move it???

All really mind boggling 0.o

PS

BTW I don't think they did build them in the first place

[regnak]

Khemit built the pryminad they are the last of Africa great civilisation most of the really old Africa civilisations come from the south of Africa because in ancient times all of North Africa was desert .

The great pryminads in Egypt had a practical function as a water pumping station the queen chamber was covered in salt and many of the early explorer of the pryminads drowned most of these tunnels are closed and they are both deep and shallow a small child can walk through these tunnels easily but a adult cannot .

Khemit recently and it fell because it opened its mystery schools to Europeans who invaded the history goes back around 200,000 years for the older ones .
