Clear evidences of lost ancient technology in Egypt. Today having a conversation with my explorer friend @explore_with_antonio we decided to review our photos from this mysterious granite box in the Cairo museum. This is a pink granite sarcophagus, found in the Egyptian museum in Cairo. It is said it’s from 21st Dynasty of ancient Egypt. As you can clearly see, the granite has been melted through with some kind of tool.

The melting temperature of dry granite at ambient pressure is 1215–1260 °C (2219–2300 °F);[5] it is strongly reduced in the presence of water, down to 650 °C at a few kBar pressure.[6].

This is clear evidence of ancient lost technology. The circles point to a drill type tool that melted through the solid granite.

There are many ancient artifacts found in Egypt that defy what we are taught, which is these artifacts are created using copper tools. When looking at the photographs, it is clear to see extreme heat was used to penetrate the granite.

The precision of the cut granite and the heating of the granite is not easy to achieve. Yet here it is, thousands of years old, with no physical evidence of technology left, but the evidence of its use does. To me it is undeniable.

What kind of technology was used, who built this technology or created it? Where is it now? Have we just not discovered it yet, or is it hidden from the public. Many ancient sites across the world show clear evidence of advanced mathematics and technology. We are not the first to walk this earth, not the first to use mathematics, not the first to create technology, not the first to understand science. It seems every discovery is a rediscovery, nothing is new, it’s just different somehow.
