Design is a structure of necessity. Right angles in common forms indicates function. the function of forms in a society indicates its aspirations; whether technological, social or existential.

Desert traders used concrete ~8000 years ago to line underground water cisterns.
If that's the sum total of 5000 years of advancement then humanity is a bit more shit than I thought.
Austin Cooper
So... what you're saying... is that we build shit to do stuff?
Why not just say we build shit to do stuff?
Brayden Wright
Concrete does not survive thousands of years. You're actually referring to geopolymers, which are advanced materials only vaguely related to concrete. They are made from gelatinized mixtures and carefully reduced at specific temperatures and pressures in order to crystallize. This required gathering and refinement of specific chemicals across vast distances.
Geopolymers require applicable knowledge of scientific method, measurements and chemistry to produce. Not to mention a society capable of sustaining supply routes and industry for hundreds of years. What's more, some objects at Puma Punku are intentionally magnetic. This required massive effort to adjust the chemistry of these materials with no apparent benefit

there's a difference between knowing and understanding.
Jonathan Sanders
That's not what I'm saying at all. Words have specific meanings and are not interchangeable.
Lucas Taylor
I believe in the theory that all advanced civilizations come to spectacular ends; and we end up resetting every 10,000 years or so. Maybe today is the furthest we've gotten, or maybe there are species of humanoids surfing the galaxies and we're what's been left behind.
Nathaniel Murphy
You couldn't even make one today.

Gypsum and lime mortar in the pyramids of Giza dates back around 5000 years.
If that's not concrete then I don't know what is.
Robert Evans
so what did the civilizations who made those stones in your picrel aspire? sex dolls?
Parker King
Have you taken your medication today?
Jace Hill
Aliens clearly did this
Joseph Torres
So you're prophesying about the nature of society expressed through the implied intentions of concrete...
We build shit to do stuff. It really is the same.
Mason Scott
>What's more, some objects at Puma Punku are intentionally magnetic.
Explain
Nicholas Collins
what type should I be taking? i've never seen a psych
Matthew Rodriguez
That is concrete but it hasn't been exposed to the elements. Neolithic structures which have survived thousands of years of weathering are all geopolymers.
We used to think they were merely carved rock, but recent science has explained that these materials are composed at the molecular level. The current industries responsible for producing geopolymers are globally a multi-billion dollar industry in just the US
Just read the wiki page on polymerization if you want a functional understanding of why these materials are so remarkable.

And? This WHOLE road was made 1500 years ago. Still standing to this day.
Did you think our ancestors were all idiot monkeys?

And what did we do 3,000 years ago requiring exact right angles tighter than less than .001 degrees, user?
Owen Evans
FFS stop posting this shitty copy pasta. What's this? The sixth time this week? All with the exact same copy paste responses? Fuck off you cunt
Andrew Morgan
It's OUT IN THE FUCKING DESERT YOU MASSIVE FUCKING SPASTIC. Just let yourself be wrong about one small, small thing, you'll feel better and gain perspective as to your own limitations.

First time this month and you know it. But keep getting angry that your threads are dead on arrival

Makes me wonder if Ayyyys helped us along, or if there was a really advanced human civilization thousands of years ago that fell apart.
Noah Roberts
I'm waiting for him to start rambling about that temple that didn't fall down
Hudson Evans
With a hammer and chisel? I don't think so.
Oliver Watson
Get a grip. What are you talking about; the mortar used in the pyramids? That material has been weathered for meters. Just read the reply before flipping out.
Wyatt Campbell
you're not insane, just dumb. it would have taken so many materials to develop a starship and leave the planet that there would probably be evidence of that advanced civilization. egypt isn't it. if even our shitty plastic bottles will show future civilizations in 30,000 years that we existed, then your imagined previous civilization that went to the stars would have left something.
Xavier Carter
I don't have an explanation and neither does modern science. The modular H-shaped blocks at the site are magnetic and none others are. The problem with this is; this is an intenional choice. It is much, much harder to produce a semi-crystalline polymer with metal ions.
Levi Torres
>gelatinized mixtures and carefully reduced at specific temperatures and pressures in order to crystallize. This required gathering and refinement of specific chemicals across vast distances.
You said that last thread and we made you post the study you got that info from and all it did was disprove you because the paper said it had crystallised naturally and been mined
Michael Collins
That's not OP you're talking to and you know it troll, but I'll answer anyway; "advanced" civilization is possible without exploitation of fossil fuel. And steel does not last hundreds of years; but if you have a problem with that the Antikythera mechanism is still ready to prove you wrong.
Jason Young
Gelatinization is not related to this thread it's been science for hundreds of years. You are spouting nonsense again
We get it user, you're feuding and you live on Yea Forums. Get a life.
Cameron Reyes
It's a chemical slurry reduced in several stages using pressure and temperature control. These materials were industrially produced and chemically pure to modern standards.
Asher Gomez
>Gelatinization is not related to this thread
Then why do you keep mentioning it as proof of your fake advanced humans idea? Now hurry up and talk about the Indian temple without a foundation you copypasta cunt
William James
See
Ethan Jones
don't reply to the trolls OP. you are the best thing here and he knows it :)
Andrew Sullivan
they used something we don't have anymore...skill.
Alexander Williams
Thanks 'non. It's just sad at this point tbh.
Hunter Lopez
What do you think these precasts were going to be used for?
Dominic Kelly
They probably aspired to explore their world and understand it using science, just like humans do today.
Luke Cox
What's with the samefagging? You did that last thread too you copypasta cunt
Joshua Martin
Magnetic material might have been used to conduct magnetic fields for structural integrity, allowing structures to resist movement. But the rationale behind this is hard to explain.
These blocks also stop ionizing radiation. This might have been the intention as well, but opens up another discussion entirely. Not of 'aliens,' but of an ancient nuclear age.

Tell that to groomers who think sex doesn't mean sex

Yup, they don’t make them like they used to.
Daniel Ross
This is barely even bait anymore considering your level of retardation

all we have to do is open the archive
keep larping
Tyler Perry
I like the ancient impact hypothesis where there was a precursor civ in the 90000 to 20000 bc have you read Graham Hancock's books? Seems like something you'd enjoy they're all on Audible
Brayden Jones
>steel does not last hundreds of years
Ah, so thats why we keep finding swords and armor dating back to roman times, made out of steel.
Jace Robinson
Dunno what you're talking about. Something geopolymer and weak magnets meaning nuclear power, random bullshit, etc
Wyatt Reyes
I did read Fingerprints of the Gods years ago. Many of the ideas are well fleshed out-- but honestly the revelations over just the past 2 decades about many of the ancient sites presents a more intriguing reality. Archaeology is more volatile than ever and there needs to be more work done on extant sites. There are major revelations sitting under our noses, like Giza for example.
Ethan Wood
Those tend to be preserved in peatmoss bogs where they can't oxidize
Camden Roberts
user, the Romans at best had access to FerrroChromium alloys. Nobody has ever said they made steel.
Jeremiah Mitchell
First attempt by man, to create the Dodge Ram.
Earliest known attempt to create a CD changer for a Dodge Ram.
Logan Rodriguez
... Do you know what steel is?
Tyler Roberts
Celts in the Noricum area had steel, didnt take the romans long to catch on once they conquered them.
Anthony Cruz
This pattern is the general room layout of a sacred temple, like looking at it from above through a macro lense
Landon Hill
He's released quite a few other books since then most recent was America befor petty good talking about very ancient peoples living in the America's 15k to 90k in the past definitely check out his newer worke for a good time Magicians of the Gods is also good
Asher Richardson
Do you? You can make an alloy steel precursor and it is not "stainless steel." In order for ancient material to be called "steel" it must be chemically equivalent or greater to modern "stainless steel," otherwise we refer to it as a ferrochromium alloy or whatever its dominant composition is.
that is the archeological definition. The Romans never made a true steel product by modern definitions.
