The Balochistan Sphinx: Natural or Man-Made? 🤔 Ancient Architects 2023-01-17 | More than four years ago Mr Bibhu Dev Misra published an article on Graham Hancock’s website, claiming this was an ancient, man-made carved Sphinx in Balochistan in Pakistan.He says it is badly eroded but has the facial features of a Sphinx statue and an Egyptian nemes headdress was also clearly visible. He also pointed out reclining forelegs and paws. But we only ever saw it from one angle.For this to truly be a Sphinx statue it would have to be three-dimensional, else it’s just natural erosion. Well, I came across drone footage and it showed it from every other angle, the front, the back, both sides and from above, and well, it pretty much proves this was never any Sphinx.It’s not and never was a man-made rock-cut Sphinx statue, it’s just natural. This alternative hypothesis is now firmly on the scrap-head.Watch a full-length video on the Ancient Architects YouTube Channel here: youtu.be/NeJklo5ic-0#ancientarchitects #Sphinx #balochistan
NEWS | Ancient Egyptian Royal Tomb Discovered | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2023-01-16 | This weekend, Egyptian authorities announced the new discovery of a royal tomb from the 18th dynasty of New Kingdom Egypt.A joint Egyptian-British archaeological mission from the Supreme Council of Antiquities and the New Kingdom Research Foundation made the discovery whilst working on the west bank of the Nile River, in the same region where we find the Valley of the Queens.The tomb is located in Valley C, one of the western valleys, just behind the so-called Neferure’s cliff-tomb.Regarding the discovery, Mostafa Waziri, Head of Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities said: “Current examination on the ceramics and fragmentary inscriptional evidence recovered so far indicates it is the tomb of several members of the royal family of the Thutmosid period of the 18th Dynasty.”The tomb though is in poor condition and parts of it, including a lot of the inscriptions and paintings have been destroyed by ancient flood waters from the Nile, which filled the chambers with sand and limestone sediment.

A Palace in the Sky! The Spectacular Ruins of Sigiriya! 😱🤩 Ancient Architects 2023-01-14 | Breathtaking, spectacular, awe-spiring, spine-tingling and magnificent: these are just a few words people have used to describe Sigiriya, an enormous, natural granite outcrop rising out of a plain in a. remote part of Sri Lanka.As well as being a stunning natural wonder, the entire rock was turned into a fortress and palace and the ruins are clear to see today. King Kashyapa chose this site as his palace around 480 AD, creating the amazing lion gateway. Unique paintings were also added to most of the western side of the rock, an area 140 metres long and 40 metres high. After the king’s death, the site became a Buddhist monastery until the 14th century, after which it was abandoned.Learn more in a longer video here: youtu.be/jwvL46kbvPo#ancientarchitects #ancienthistory #history

Visit adeptexpeditions.com/tours/ancient-architects-symbolism-tour-egypt-2023In news this week, Scientists have reconstructed the face of arguably the greatest Ancient Egyptian ruler of all, Pharoah Ramesses II of the 19th dynasty.Although the pharaoh died aged 90 – which is quite the age for someone living 3,200+ years ago – using his mummified remains experts have reconstructed his face both in his prime – aged 45 – as well as in his old age.The images show the pharaoh as the man, no headdress, jewellery or make-up and I've tried to mock up how he would have looked in full royal regalia.Watch this video to learn more about what the scientists have done, and also more about Pharaoh Ramesses the Great.All images are taken from the below sources and Google Images for educational purposes only.

WHAT IS THIS?! Amazing Ancient Rock-Cut Structure in Afghanistan 🤩 Ancient Architects 2023-01-12 | Sometimes you come across something you’ve never seen before. At first I thought maybe this was some kind of modern bunker, but it turns out that this bizarre looking structure is more than 1,500 years old.It’s known as Takht-E Rostam, a Buddhist Stupa monastery complex, located 2 km south of town of Haibak in northern Afghanistan. It’s entirely cut from the bedrock, a stupa surmounted by a harmika with several rough-cut caves around the base. A hoard of coins was found inside one of the caves.\The purpose and importance of the monastery was lost in the Muslim conquests of Afghanistan. History fell into myth and legend but the site was incorporated into Persian mythology in the story of Rostam and Sohrab.Learn more in a longer video on the Ancient Architects YouTube channel.

World’s OLDEST Wooden Sculpture: 12,000-Year-Old Shigir Idol 😱 Ancient Architects 2023-01-11 | Known as the world’s oldest wooden statue, the Shigar Idol is thought to be between 12,000 and 11,500-years-old, meaning it was made during the Mesolithic period, shortly after the end of the last Ice Age.It was discovered by gold miners back in 1890 inside the peat bog of Shigir, on the eastern slope of the Middle Urals, approximately 62 miles away from Yekaterinburg in Russia.When it was first radiocarbon dated in the 1990s, its age was 9,500 years but later German analysis pushed back this date by a further 2,000 years.The artefact is clearly very ancient and although we can analyse and describe it, nobody knows with any certainly what it meant to the ancient people and what it symbolises. It stood either on or next to an ancient lake. It was clearly an item of importance due to the amount of work and craftsmanship that went into it and it clearly meant something to a local population.

10,000-Year-Old Gürcü Tepe: Is This Where It All Ended? | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2023-01-10 | In the past few weeks I’ve been providing archaeological updates on the Taş Tepeler sites of the SE Anatolia region of Turkey. This is thanks to a presentation that was given by archaeologists in November 2022 on the Turkish language Arkaeolojihbar YouTube channel. Watch here: youtu.be/ueAUcFBCdjoThe presentation provided updates on well-known sites Göbekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe, as well as Sayburç, Harbetsuvan Tepesi, Sefer Tepe and Cakmaktepe but there was also another ancient site that was discussed, one that is not one of the 12 Taş Tepeler sites, and one you may never have heard of.It’s called Gürcü Tepe, a late Pre-Pottery Neolithic B site on the southeastern outskirts of Şanlıurfa, Turkey and it consists of a number of shallow tells, or mounds, on a plain along the Sirrin Stream that flows from Sanliurfa.It was first excavated in the 1990s by the late, great Klaus Schmidt and although excavations came to an abrupt end and most of the site is now built over, excavations recommenced in 2021 and then continued in 2022.

NEWS | 20,000-Year-Old Ice Age Mystery SOLVED | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2023-01-06 | Most of us will have seen the many examples of Palaeolithic cave art, beautifully drawn and coloured and dominated by animal imagery. Ice Age humans were so much more than mere survival specialists; they were so much more than nomadic hunter gatherers.Our ancient ancestors were not simple people. They could build intricate houses from the bones of mammoths, they created and perfected the art of stone tool making, they accurately shaped animals from stone, they had a culture, burial rites and belief systems and yes, from Europe to Siberia and beyond, they were able to survive the harsh conditions of the Ice Age.Their paintings though are truly incredible and this stone canvas in the Lascaux Cave is arguably one of humanity’s greatest artistic achievements.Having a personal interest in Ice Age cultures meant I was fascinated to read the news this week, that a furniture conservator, an amateur called Ben Bacon may have solved a truly ancient mystery – the meaning behind seemingly random, markings – lines, dots and shapes – that were painted next to or onto animals by Ice Age artists.Mr Bacon suspected that these markings had a specific meaning, an idea shared by many archaeologists, but amazingly, it’s an amateur that may have solved it. They're charting the mating seasons of various animals according to an ancient lunar calendar!

Is This The Greatest Ancient Egyptian Treasure EVER Discovered? 🤩 Ancient Architects 2023-01-04 | To the average person with a passing interest in Ancient Egypt, they will have heard of The Sphinx, The Pyramids, The Valley of the Kings and the tomb of King Tutankhamen.In terms of treasure, King Tut’s golden artefacts get all the attention, and obviously for good reason, but there is another royal Egyptian treasure trove that often escapes the limelight.These are the Treasures of Tanis, discovered in the city of Tanis, in the Nile Delta region, northeast of Cairo.They were found in the late 1930s and early 1940s, in a complex of royal tombs, one of which was perfectly intact.The hoard includes four solid gold death masks, two beautiful and incredible solid silver coffins lined with gold and spectacular examples of Ancient Egyptian jewellery made from the most precious metals and stones.They date to the 21st to 22nd dynasty, between 1000 and 850 BC and my favourite is the solid silver Falcon-Headed Coffin of Sheshonq II.Watch this video to learn more: youtu.be/qjVA5Rw3PlI#ancientarchitects #ancientegypt #tanis
Lost Relics of the Great Sphinx of Egypt: Revealed 🤓 Ancient Architects 2023-01-03 | When the Sphinx was excavated in the 19th century, a New Kingdom temple was found between the paws. Inside this temple were a number of relics, most of which have been removed.Today, the Dream Stela, which forms the back of the temple still remains, but there were also two stele next to it, erected by Rameses the Great in the 19th dynasty, and now missing. These were taken to the Louvre Museum.There was also a statue of a lion, once facing the Dream Stele and the Sphinx. Two further lion statues were also in the temple, as well as a red granite altar, where a fire was likely lit. Broken parts of the missing beard of the Sphinx were also found on the ground below the head, as was the missing snake from the Sphinx headdress.Learn more on the Ancient Architects YouTube channel.

12,890-Years-Old! YOUNGER DRYAS Settlement of Tell Qaramel | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2023-01-02 | When studying the ancient Pre-Pottery Neolithic sites of the Fertile Crescent, Göbekli Tepe, Karahan Tepe and Jericho get the most attention – for good reason – they display incredible architecture and are also truly ancient, between 10 and 12,000-years-old.But there is one site that so many have never even heard of, one that is even older than those mentioned, and one that is even more important. It displays some truly magnificent examples of ancient stone architecture and artefacts, a Proto-Neolithic settlement with continuous occupation for 2,000 years, with origins before the Younger Dryas and then continuous occupation during and after - charting the evolution of the Pre-Pottery Neolithic in one specific location.This site is Tell Qaramel, located in Northern Syria, around 25km north of Aleppo, 175km to the southwest of Göbekli Tepe. It’s on the western bank of the River Qoueiq, very much in the Fertile Crescent, a site with truly ancient origins, yet experts have still only excavated a tiny portion of this ancient site.After learning about this site over Christmas, I’m astonished it hasn’t been mentioned by popular authors because anybody with an interest in sites like Gobekli Tepe, Karahan Tepe and Jericho - anybody trying to interpret the origins of civilisation - must at the very least mention Tell Qaramel.

The Incredible 11,000-Year-Old Tower of Jericho | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2022-12-21 | Tell es-Sultan is an archaeological mound site in the West Bank, with a history going back to the Natufian Culture, to at least 10,000 BC. But this mound is something special because what its hiding is in fact the ancient city of Jericho.Before excavations began, you would be forgiven for thinking it was just a natural hill at first glance, but the hill itself is made up of many layers of collapsed architecture, mainly mudbrick, and over the years, excavations have uncovered the long and complex history of this very ancient city.In the 1860s, Charles Warren identified the site as Ancient Jericho, but it wouldn’t be until the work of British archaeologist, Kathleen Kenyon decades later, when we would learn just how old this site really was.To understand the phases of occupation, Kenyon and her colleagues recorded the stratigraphic sequences through the mound. Years and years were spend digging and meticulously recording, and by the 1950s this was one of the world’s most famous archaeological sites.In the Pre-Pottery Neolithic, Jericho was certainly a settlement, but one discovery surprised everyone. During her excavations in the 1950s, Kenyon discovered an ancient stone structure from these very remote times, and it was unlike anything else seen before. This discovery was the Tower of Jericho.Watch this video to learn more about this 11,000-year-old stone structure, as old as, or even older than some parts of Gobekli Tepe and Karahan Tepe.Read the paper by Barkai and Liran at http://antiquity.ac.uk/projgall/barkai327All images are taken from Google Images for educational purposes only.

12,650-Year-Old Stone Towers of Tell Qaramel, Syria 😱 Ancient Architects 2022-12-20 | Tell Qaramel is an archaeological mound site in Syria, located 25 km north of Aleppo. Inside the mound is an abundance of archaeology, with dates going as far back as 13-14,000 years ago.The mound contained the remains of five round stone towers, each having walls more than 2 metres thick, and bases with diameters between 6 and 8 metres. Radiocarbon dating showed that the earliest phase of work on the towers took place more than 12,000 years ago, which the most recent calibrated estimate being 12,650 years ago.That means that these intricate stone structures are even older than the earliest phase of work at Gobekli Tepe. Tell Qaramel is one of the earliest permanent settlements in the Fertile Crescent.Due to war in recent years, excavations have stopped and still only 2% of Tell Qaramel has been uncovered.

BIGGER than BAALBEK: 2,000-Ton Monoliths of Minya, Ancient Egypt Ancient Architects 2022-12-17 | At the site of Zaiyat al-Sultan, 6 km southeast of el-Minya in Middle Egypt, along the east bank of the River Nile, ancient quarries lie within the limestone cliffs.At the northernmost summit there is incredible relic of the ancient past, something that is so rarely spoken about, an object most people don’t even know exists, yet for anybody with an interest in ancient history, ancient technology and ancient architecture, this needs to be on your radar. It really needs to be spoken about and studied.Inside the ancient quarry is an enormous unfinished statue, a huge block of limestone measuring 22 metres or 72 foot long and 8 metres or 26 feet in width. To put that into perspective, the Stone of the Pregnant Woman at Baalbek is 20.5 metres long, 4 metres wide and 4.3 metres high. This stone in Egypt is longer, wider and taller. It is larger than all of the monolithic blocks at Baalbek, including the larger ones close to the Stone of the Pregnant Lady.That's not all; the unfinished statue is one of a pair, because we find another unfinished colossus 1.5km south of the Akoris city ruins, in what is known as the South Quarry.These enormous monoliths are thought to weigh between 2,000 and 3,000 tons, far larger than Baalbek, meaning they are incredible important relics that can help us understand ancient architecture, stone-working and stone-lifting techniques.

11,000-Year-Old Sayburç: Worlds Oldest Narrative Carving + Site Update | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2022-12-15 | Please subscribe to Archaeology Tube at youtube.com/@ArchaeologyTubeSituated around 20 km to the SW of the modern city of Sanliurfa, in the SE Anatolia region of Turkey, is the truly incredible site of Sayburç, at least 11,000-years-old, and archaeologists are uncovering some truly astonishing finds.This is one of the 12 designated Taş Tepeler sites of Turkey, a Neolithic mound, onto which the modern village of Sayburç was constructed in the 1940s.Excavations into the mound began in 2021 and experts have already identified two separate Pre-Pottery Neolithic occupation phases. The earliest phase comprises communal structures built directly onto the bedrock and is located in the northern part of the modern village – and on the south eastern edge of a small Roman settlement. The second and later phase contains residential and communal structures and is found 70 metres further to the south.In this video, I’ll first be discussing the incredible relief carving discovered in the oldest part of the site, and which I first mentioned last year, and then we’ll take a look at the excavations 70 metres to the south, where some more fascinating finds have been discovered.All images have been taken from the below sources and Google Images for educational purposes only.

Çakmaktepe: The Missing Link & Older than Göbekli Tepe | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2022-12-08 | Last month I presented some very important archaeological updates on three Pre-Pottery Neolithic sites in the SE Anatolia region of Turkey – Göbekli Tepe, Karahan Tepe and Harbetsuvan Tepesi.As new evidence continues to come to light, the bigger picture is gradually emerging and previous ideas are becoming outdated quickly. We are seeing relationships between the various sites, we are beginning to understand how the region was evolving and its now very apparent that to understand the origins and importance of both Göbekli Tepe or Karahan Tepe, we can’t study these sites in isolation.There are dozens of sites of interest dating to this remote period of time, scattered throughout the Fertile Crescent, and they’re all part of the story.And that leads us nicely into the subject of this video, the Tas Tepeler Site of Çakmaktepe - a direct pre-cursor to Göbekli Tepe, and it’s also located close by, with origins 3-400 years older and showing similar yet slightly more primitive building techniques, just as you would expect with a precursor settlement.According to news reports earlier in the year, Cakmaktepe contains the oldest architectural structures ever found in Turkey.Archaeologist Dr Fatma Sahin presented the latest findings in the recent Tas Tepeler presentation on the Arkeolojihaber YouTube channel. The information was presented in Turkish, and I’ve transcribed the video and attempted to translate it the best I can, so I can give you a very up-to-date overview of this exciting and very important Pre-Pottery Neolithic site, a site you may have never heard of before.For the full video in Turkish, see: youtu.be/ueAUcFBCdjoI hope you enjoy learning about this incredible, unique site and if you have any questions, be sure to leave them in the comments below.All images are taken from the Arkeolojihaber video and the below sources for educational purposes only.

The Mystery of Abu Rawash: Was it REALLY an Egyptian Pyramid? | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2022-11-30 | We’re told the ruins of Abu Rawash were once a pyramid complex belonging to King Khufu’s 4th dynasty successor and son, Djedefre, but what we see today is really just a huge trench and pit, with a few courses of stone. The site is not very well understood, is in a terrible state of preservation, and it's therefore subject to much speculation, so in this video we’ll take a closer look.Was this site once an ancient pyramid? Was it finished or unfinished? Or could it in fact be the remains of an early solar temple? Watch this video to learn more.With special thanks to Keith Hamilton.

Zawyet el Aryan Ancient “Pyramid Site Left to Ruin: How Did We Let This Happen?! 😞 Ancient Architects 2022-11-29 | Less than 5km south of the Great Pyramid is a once spectacular structure in ruin. Zawyet el Aryan could be an ancient 4th dynasty pyramid or a spectacular solar temple. The site was even used in the 1955 movie ‘Land of the Pharoahs’.But today, this large, ancient complex has been left to ruin and now sits inside a military complex, built all over, and the archaeology is unloved, overgrown and unpreserved.Years ago this was a site with unique architectural features with incredible stonework, but today it’s all but forgotten.#ancientarchitects #zawyetelaryan #ancientegypt
Göbekli Tepe: Were the Builders REALLY Astronomers? The Sirius Connection | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2022-11-26 | In August 2013, New Scientist ran an article titled ‘World’s Oldest Temple Built to Worship the Dog Star.” The headline alone, in a credible scientific publication, sounds very certain. It sounds like it’s a mystery solved but as it’s not really been spoken about since I started this channel, I thought it was worth taking a closer look and that's the subject of this video.The most recent archaeoastronomy hypothesis comes from Dr Martin Sweatman who details his theory in papers, on his YouTube channel and in his book, Prehistory Decoded, but in 2013, Giulio Magli of the Polytechnic University of Milan also looked to the sky for answers.Like Sweatman, Magli simulated what the sky would have looked like from Turkey when Göbekli Tepe was built and he made a curious observation and it concerns the star Sirius, also known as the Dog Star.Sirius is the brightest object in the sky, excluding the sun, moon, Venus and Jupiter. Magli told New Scientist how Sirius was so prominent to the Ancient Egyptians, that the rising and setting of the Dog Star was the basis for their calendar.Interestingly, at the latitude of Göbekli Tepe, Sirius would have been below the horizon until around 9,300 BC, when it would have suddenly popped into a view – a bright star not seen in this part of the world for millennia.Did least the ancient Pre-Pottery Neolithic People of Ancient Anatolia to built the amazing circular enclosures of Göbekli Tepe, to mark the birth and movement of this star?

The Mysterious ‘Pyramid’ Ruins of Abu Rawash, Egypt Ancient Architects 2022-11-23 | These are the mysterious ruins of Abu Rawash, a site that dates to the 4th dynasty of the Old Kingdom, to King Djedefre, the son and successor of king Khufu.But was it a finished pyramid as many experts claim, was it unfinished or was it even a pyramid at all? All we see today are 10 courses of masonry, a steep deep trench and a pit.It was dug into the bedrock but much of the core masonry limesone blocks and fine Tura lining are now missing. Experts believe a burial chamber was built inside the pit but physical evidence is lacking.This site is not open to the public and its purpose remains open to speculation. A pyramid? Maybe. But maybe it could have been an ancient solar temple.Footage supplied by @PlaneteRAW. Subscribe at youtube.com/@PlaneteRAW#AncientArchitects #HistoryShorts #AncientEgypt

LOST, RARE Film Footage of the Sphinx Excavations from the 1920s - Restored and Colourised. Ancient Architects 2022-11-22 | This is one minute of rare, previously lost footage of the Sphinx excavations of the 1920s. I’ve discovered it recently on the Huntley Film Archive. It was in black and white, was incredibly grainy and full of noise, very little contrast in the shades of grey and of course it is low resolution. Some of it was also flipped horizontally. I’m no expert in video restoration but I sharpened the video as best I could, added a little more contrast and also attempted to colourise the footage, to bring it to life nearly 100 years after it was filmed.The Huntley Film Archive have allowed me to publish the footage but only with their watermarks still in place.

A Secret Passageway from the Great Pyramid King’s Chamber? Ancient Architects 2022-11-15 | Does the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid still hold an incredible secret?This spectacular granite-lined room only contains a worn, broken and empty sarcophagus, but there is an anomaly on the northern wall.There is a block of stone with worn edges that is not load bearing. The stone above it also looks damaged and cracked. You could slide it out without compromising the structural integrity of the room.Architect Jean-Pierre Houdin believes there is a hidden passageway behind, an idea he claims is backed up with geophysical surveys.So is there more to find inside the Great Pyramid of Egypt?

LOST Film Footage of The Sphinx Excavations FOUND and RESTORED | Ancient Architects Ancient Architects 2022-11-03 | After a video showing vintage photographs of the Sphinx excavations from the 1920s and 30s I went on the hunt for more, and came across something I had never seen before, actual video footage of the Sphinx excavation and renovation work from nearly 100 years ago.Most vintage black and white footage of the Sphinx comes from after 1930s, and you can tell this because the headdress has been restored, but finding footage of the Sphinx pre-1930s is incredibly rare. In fact such footage is generally stored on archives, owned by private companies and it never gets to see the light of day.The footage I’ve discovered this week was in black and white, was incredibly grainy and full of noise, very little contrast in the shades of grey and of course it is low resolution. Some of it was also flipped horizontally. I’m no expert in video restoration but I sharpened the video as best I could, added a little more contrast and also attempted to colourise the footage, to bring it to life nearly 100 years after it was filmed.I found the video on the Huntley Film Archive, a private company that discovers vintage video footage, digitises it and preserves it, before making it available for commercial use. The cost for me, as a YouTuber, was way out of my price range, but the good people of Huntley Film Archive have allowed me to publish the footage with their watermarks still in place.Please watch and Like the video and comment your thoughts and observations in the description below.
