Astonishing evidence for an ancient form of sophisticated machining into very hard stone can be seen on one of the artifacts found on the Ancient Egyptian site of Elephantine Island. After several visits to this incredible place, the significance of this particular aspect to the well-known granite ‘shrine’ finally hit home for me. Incontrovertible, and confirmed by a true expert in stone working, there is no way known that the subject of the video could be produced using primitive hand tools, it’s one of the best individual pieces of evidence for ancient advanced technology that I’ve ever seen.   

Join me as we explore a little bit of the history of Elephantine Island, and dive into the details and implications of this recently uncovered aspect of the stonework there.   

I’ll be speaking live and in person at the Cosmic Summit, at the beautiful Crowne Plaza Resort in Ashville, NC next year. Alongside Graham Hancock, Randall Carlson, scientists from the Comet Research Group and fellow youtubers like Jimmy Corsetti and Jahannah James, it’ll be quite the event! Scheduled for Jun 16-18, tickets are available for in-person or live streaming here: https://howtube.com/unchartedx

I recently held a Livestream on my YouTube channel, sharing footage and some thoughts on new observations from a recent trip to Egypt.

I do occasional livestreams on my Youtube channel, but I stream regularly over on twitch, 2 or 3 times a week, at least when I’m in the country at home! Check out the twitch channel at https://twitch.tv/unchartedx

Evidence exists for a number of truly colossal statues that existed during the Ancient Egyptian Civilization. Carved from single solid pieces of granite, or conglomerate quartzite, several of these behemoths weighed in at 1000 tons and more. Some were transported more than 1000km from their original quarries, and the remaining fragments display amazingly fine details and features. A true logistical and technological challenge.

Could these statues, as well as smaller examples that display other aspects of lost ancient technology, have been inherited by the Dynastic Egyptian Civilization? Might they have formed the basis for the iconic artwork, style and culture of the civilization that we are all familiar with today? Why do we see a tale of two industries, primitive and advanced, in so many categories of Ancient Egyptian artifacts?

Join me as we explore these questions, and examine the evidence for truly colossal remains of ancient Egyptian statues, and forms of lost ancient technology, far beyond that which can be achieved by the tools and techniques that exist in the archaeological record.

New video!

Randall Carlson joins me for his 3rd appearance on the UnchartedX Podcast!

We get into a discussion on the academic history of geology, the science behind the younger dryas, and the mechanics of the megafloods of the channeled scablands in the pacific northwest, the tumultuous climate and rise in sea levels during that period and the effects it would have had on any people in affected regions.

Since my last video on Tiwanaku and Puma Punku, I’ve been looking forward to an opportunity to share some of my findings with Randall, and to quiz him about the possible connections between Arthur Posnansky’s research on the geological history of that region and the younger dryas period, which we get into.

Then Randall takes us through an utterly fascinating discussion of the prevalence of precessional numerology in history, and how it all connects between astronomical cycles, the measures of time and space, and the possibility of a common source that has driven this data down through time, cultures, religions and legends – I did my best to keep up with him and there was definitely some ‘mind blown’ moments in there for me.

Last week I joined Danny at the excellent Koncrete Podcast for an in-studio, long form discussion on all things lost ancient technology – we went for more than 3 hours! It premiered today on the Koncrete channel.

Watch here: https://youtu.be/efjgHYibTH8

I’d highly recommend checking out some of Danny’s other guests (Randall Carlson was on the show recently) and he brings a background in cinematography with a great studio setup for high production value in his work. Hope you all enjoy the chat!

Cheers,

Ben

All my videos can now also be found on Spotify! The channel is called ‘UnchartedX Videos’ and here’s a link to the show page: https://open.spotify.com/show/2JfszzWeJkVtqH7SEiglSY?si=a4d5c7f7120b41e1

Note that this is DIFFERENT to the ‘UnchartedX Podcast’ – that is my audio only podcast, which will continue as it’s own entity.

So in summary, my videos will be available on YouTube, Spotify (and of course here on this website), and the UnchartedX Podcast is hosted right here (via the podcast link at the top of the page) and available through most podcast libraries, including Spotify and iTunes.

Cheers!

A promo video and highlights for an upcoming adventure! Join us as we delve into the mysteries of our cataclysmic past – in an exploration of the mega-flood landscapes of the Channeled Scablands of Eastern Washington state, happening this September (and May 2023)! Details at https://contactatthecabin.com/scablands-with-randall-carlson/ .

Presented by Randall Carlson, Brad Young, The Brothers of the Serpent, The Grimerica Show, with special guests David Mathisen, Brandon Powell and Ben from UnchartedX (me!) these trips are a great week getting into the geological, archaeological, and paleontological details of the cataclysmic past of humanity. Daily field trips to geologically significant locations, evening lectures and sessions on a wide variety of topics, Wim Hof breath sessions, and the occasional jam session make up a fun week based out of Soap Lake Resort in Eastern Washington state.

I recently joined Jeremy Nell of the Jerm Warfare podcast on both his TNT radio show and podcast – they were both fun conversations!

Is human history cyclical rather than linear?

Unique amongst ancient megalithic sites, the twin locations of Tiahuanaco and Puma Punku, located high on the Altiplano of Bolivia, represent an enduring mystery for the history of human civilizations. The true age of these ruins has always been a controversial topic, and the man responsible for 50 years of primary excavation and research here, Professor Arthur Posnansky, used a multi-disciplinary approach to  conclude that  they originated more than 10,000 years ago. Unsurprisingly, this date is dismissed by mainstream archaeology -but just how valid is this dismissal? And what is the evidence behind the claims?   

Years in the making, this video investigates the claims behind the age of these enigmatic locations – and to understand if Tiahuanaco was, as Posnansky termed it, the Cradle of American Man.

Hi All, I hope everyone is doing well! 

While I’m working on the research and script for the next video, I thought I’d share a recent podcast that I did with my friends Kyle and Russ Allen, the hosts of the Brothers of the Serpent show. 

Cheers!
