Hello and welcome to the program.
You have all warning. In this episode we're talking
about new evidence from Stonehenge.
That's correct, new evidence from Stonehenge.
Now this article comes to us from the New York Post Title
says, has the ongoing mystery of Stonehenge been solved?
Experts have an astonishing theory.
Written by David Lanzel, published August 14th, 2024, it
says the wonder of the world isn't done living up to its
name. Roughly 5000 years after making
an initial appearance on a patch of English grassland, Stonehenge
has plenty of secrets left to tell, surprising new research
suggests. Experts on the prehistoric site
are abuzz over a new report stating that the Ultra Stone,
one of the mysterious pieces of the monument according to the
Washington Post, may have been dragged 500 miles or more
overland from far away Scotland to Salisbury Plain.
If true, the finding, released with 95% certainty by scientists
at Kirtland at Curtin University in Australia, challenges a
century's worth of geological study that's supposed whales to
be the point of origin. Using tiny, long ago secured
fragments of the stone, which cannot be further tampered with
for any reason due to Stonehenge status as a World Heritage Site,
the researchers were able to determine that the work of
Neolithic art was made of the old red sandstone.
Kind of convenient. You go in, you call this thing a
World Heritage site, and then no more study can be done on it.
So I guess we just have to accept their narrative, right?
Well, now the narrative may have changed a little bit because
before they were claiming all the stones were mined locally
and drug to the site, which a lot of people thought, well,
yeah, even though they're Stone Age people, even though they're
just using ropes and the wheel hasn't been invented yet.
Yeah, that's probably could be true.
Now they're telling us, oh, by the way, that giant 13,000 LB
alter stone, well, that was drugged from 500 miles away.
Clip and working islands near Scotland seems like a bit of a
stretch to me. I don't know.
This type of stone is found in Scotland's northeast in an area
known as the Arcadian Basin, stretching N from the Inverness
and through the Orkney Islands. Considering the wheel had yet to
be invented, the feet of. Prehistoric long haul transport
demonstrates a high level societal organization with
interbritten transport during the Neolithic period,
researchers said. Well, I don't know what do you
mean by high level. If the only way they had to get
that thing there was by bagging it with ropes.
Just seems more like bridge strength to me.
Hard to imagine though, these Stone Age people could do that.
The trip may have taken over a decade to accomplish, the
Washington Post reported. Next up, figuring out where
exactly the stone came from in Scotland and why it was moved.
The fascination with the world's most iconic rock collections
goes back to the medieval period, says the first time
Stonehenge is discussed in writing, according to English
Heritage. Other stones in the circle are
said to have traveled significances as well, the
organization stated. Well, yeah, you know, this
thing's been around for a long time.
Even the Romans are known to have gone to Stonehenge.
Stonehenge has got some interesting history though.
I'll put the links up to this. Kofi, here's a link talking
about these about the Ultra Stone.
They don't. They don't mention the weight up
there in that article. It's this is from Google.
You just ask them how much the Ultra Stone weighed.
It tells you that Neolithic peoples were capable of
delivering a stone prehistoric FedEx package weighing 13,227
lbs from as far north as the Orkney Islands off the coast of
Scotland to the Salisbury Plain southwest of present day London,
with the understanding that 6 tons is approximately the weight
of a full grown male elephant. Look, so you're telling me that
it was on an island and they got this rock off an island, floated
it across the water onto the mainland there in Scotland, and
then drug it 500 miles South to Whales or Salisbury Plain down
here? I mean, come on.
Seems a little bit beyond the pill to me.
But I guess these guys were pretty inventive.
Hard to believe that they could be that creative, solve problems
like that, and still not have invented the wheel.
Now I've got another short link here and a couple articles
talking about the fact that you know Stonehenge didn't look
exactly like it did before the early 1900s.
It has been reconstructed. It says that the restoration
project, the Trilithon was re erected from the position where
he had lain for 161 years and upright and a lentil forming
part of the outer circle were also put back into position.
One of the large sarsens of the inner horseshoe was set in
concrete and a large hollow at its base, infilled, so there's
been some monkeying around there.
How this thing looked exactly we don't know, but in the early
1900s they started really going to town on this.
There's an article here from englishheritage.uk that goes
into the restoration in quite some detail.
Says on October 26th, 1918. Cecil Chubb, the owner of
Stonehenge, formally handed it over to the Office of Works.
An assessment of its condition soon followed and plans were
made to straighten a number of the leaning sarsens and securing
them in a concrete foundation, as well as re erect the stones
that had fallen in 1797 and 1900.
Work began in 1919, focusing on the stones that the Office of
Works deemed most in need of restoration.
The Society of Antiquaries Work carried out the excavations,
which were directed on their behalf by Lieutenant Colonel
William Hawley. Stones six and seven, both of
which were leaning precariously or straightened at their lentil,
was replaced. Stones 2931 and two of the outer
circle were straightened and set in concrete.
Plans to raise the stone that fell in 1900 and the triathlon
that collapsed in 1797 were not fulfilled at that time.
Then it goes on. Talks a little bit about the
1950s restoration. They decided they need to put
some concrete in this stuff. Stuff has been laying there for
5000 years. But hey, I think we need to
plaster some concrete on it to keep it intact.
Wow, it says the last major works.
Looks like here is back in the late in the early 60s and it
just goes on. Has a pretty glowing article
written about it. Look, it's clear that the people
that control things control the narrative around Stonehenge.
We have another article here from Englishhartees com talking
about speculating how these people drug these rocks up here.
The funny thing is, they weren't able to create the wheel, but
they were able to use ropes to do all kinds of stuff.
If we just stop and think about it, agriculture had been
developed since about 12,000 BC, but you're talking about
agriculture on a very primitive level.
And so where did these people find the time?
Where did they find the energy to do all of this stuff at to
drag these huge stones? I just want to know how somebody
5000 years ago or longer decided that they had the inclination to
drag a 13,000 LB stone from clear up there in northern
Scotland, possibly off one of the islands of Scotland.
All right, off one of the islands, somehow.
Get this? If that's the case, then somehow
they had to get this thing across the water that floated
somehow. 13,000 lbs floated and then drag it clear down here to
where they erected it at 500 miles away.
And they tell us these articles that they believe at the time
that the UK was mostly covered in forest.
So what did they do? They have to cut a path all the
way through with stone tools. I mean, just imagine they're
living in this very primitive environment.
It's old growth forest. We're not talking about pine
trees that are 20 inches around or something.
We're talking about giant old oak trees.
So somehow these Stone Age people without the use of wheels
or metal or any of the natural conveniences, decided to walk
500 miles from wherever they were at wheels down there in the
UK. Or maybe they were in Scotland
and they'd heard about this place down there, but they
decided to travel 500 miles minimum, maybe 1000 mile round
trip. Grab this giant ultra stone that
weighed 13,000 lbs. Now why they didn't just use
some of the local rock I don't know.
But they decided they needed to go 500 miles away, drag the sand
off an island, cross the water with it apparently, and at the
very least even if it even if it wasn't, even if the water say
was lower than and they drug it off the island, still 500 miles.
500 miles through heavy old growth forest.
Much of that did they cut the trees down on the way.
I mean, they, they say in the articles that part of the reason
they put Stonehenge where it was at is because it was one of the
few open areas that they could build the thing at.
Everything else was covered in trees.
I, I don't get, I absolutely don't get how somebody who's
living in those situations where you think maybe they're just
eking out a living through hunting and gathering and maybe
raising it and maybe raising a few sheep had the time or the
inclination to mine these stones.
Place them the way they did and then go 500 miles out of their
way to get this giant ultra stone, drag it all the way back
home, hoist it up on top of these pillars.
I mean, did they have help? I don't know.
How did they do it? I really don't have a clue.
What I would like to say is what I always say is the
archaeologists that are so certain of this, couldn't they
get a bunch of college kids together and demonstrate pulling
one of these stones? Even if even if it wasn't a
13,000 LB stone, couldn't they get together and show us how
many it took to pull A2 or 3000 LB stone?
Just give us some evidence of how this would work.
When I can recreate them doing part of this job, I think is
when I will begin to believe that they're telling me the
truth for the first time in a long time.
Until next time, this is UFO warning over and out.
