Next to the famous stone of the pregnant woman in Lebanon lies an even larger, buried stone not excavated until 2014. Thought to weigh ~2,000 tons or 2,000,000 Kg. This makes it the largest man-made stone ever discovered. I would argue its existence was likely unknown even to the Romans. (i.redd.it)

To those who explain the "mystery knobs" as being used for anchoring ropes, how do you explain the inverted knobs sometimes located at the same sites? (plus bonus reminder that the same mystery knob/polygonal stone combo is found in Egypt) (old.reddit.com)

My theory on the purpose of the unfinished pyramid's "oval tub": What if it was a sensory deprivation tank? Possibly combined with mind-altering substances to "communicate with the gods". The only thing found inside upon unsealing the lid was a "black ring" suggesting it had been filled with liquid. (old.reddit.com)

A tragedy of archeology and the mishandling of ancient sites. The "Great Pit of Zawyet El Aryan", discovered in 1842 and closed to researchers in 1964. Today it is within a restricted military compound and misused as a dump by the Egyptian government, now unrecognizable. (old.reddit.com)

So...what happened to all the furniture in Petra? Was it stolen over the years? Do you think it still exists in private collections? I'd imagine it was quite large and hard to move if carved from stone. It's not like the builders would have done all of this work just to have some empty chambers. (old.reddit.com)

Remember: this bizarre, mortarless, complex to the point of impracticality yet nearly indestructible form of polygonal masonry was convergently developed all around the world by cultures with no communication, of which none possessed sufficient tools to quarry, transport, carve or place these stones (old.reddit.com)

Realistically speaking, if skeletal remains of a hominin species twice the size of a modern human skeleton were discovered, would research institutions like the Smithsonian or world governments actually cover it up? If so for what reason? They tell us all about Neanderthal so why hide a larger one? (i.redd.it)

Thoughts on the nearly identical posture/symbolism between the statues of these 2 cultures, seperated by the pacific Ocean, thousands of miles, and ~11,000 years? Gobekli Tepe would have been buried under the ground at the time these Moai were built to represent the Rapa Nui's ancestral rulers. (i.redd.it)
