These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,480 many people learned in school that 2 00:00:01,719 --> 00:00:05,520 Christopher Columbus was the first 3 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,600 non-native American to step foot on 4 00:00:05,520 --> 00:00:09,519 American 5 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:12,200 soil however a recent shocking finding 6 00:00:09,519 --> 00:00:14,400 of a 5,000 years old Egyptian map that 7 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,160 accurately depicts America is telling a 8 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,640 very different story and might Force 9 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:20,600 changes to history textbooks how was 10 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:23,000 this ancient map discovered and how did 11 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:25,640 the maker get an accurate description of 12 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,720 America in this video we bring you the 13 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:30,039 egg that proves the pyramids are older 14 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:32,160 than we assumed and the 5,000-year-old 15 00:00:30,039 --> 00:00:34,520 map of America discovered in 16 00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:36,680 Egypt you have probably never heard of 17 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:39,559 the nagada culture and the Mysterious 18 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:41,320 Nubia egg however these two could change 19 00:00:39,559 --> 00:00:43,600 everything you have been taught about 20 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:46,120 history let's start with the Naga 21 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:50,719 culture this was a culture that thrived 22 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:53,480 in 4,000 3000 BCE in Egypt even before 23 00:00:50,719 --> 00:00:55,640 the emergence of the Pharaohs this made 24 00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:58,559 the culture a cradle of civilization for 25 00:00:55,640 --> 00:01:00,359 ancient Egypt this time in history 26 00:00:58,559 --> 00:01:02,359 brought about the emergence of early 27 00:01:00,359 --> 00:01:04,920 settlement patterns and achievements in 28 00:01:02,359 --> 00:01:07,240 crafts it was also the time that trade 29 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:09,320 networks started to get established 30 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,960 setting the foundational components that 31 00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:15,000 evolved culturally and politically into 32 00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:17,000 ancient Egypt according to Scholars one 33 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:20,119 of the most fascinating aspects of the 34 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:23,119 Nagata way of life was the rich artifact 35 00:01:20,119 --> 00:01:25,079 it yielded in fact these artifacts have 36 00:01:23,119 --> 00:01:27,600 been very crucial to our understanding 37 00:01:25,079 --> 00:01:30,799 of the Dynamics of Egyptian Society 38 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:34,520 religion and artistic works and then the 39 00:01:30,799 --> 00:01:36,600 Nubia egg this was no ordinary egg apart 40 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:39,040 from being spectacular for the intricate 41 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,399 craftsmanship this singular egg has been 42 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,520 at the very center of a heated debate on 43 00:01:41,399 --> 00:01:45,600 the origin and timeline of ancient 44 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,399 Egyptian civilization and also the 45 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,960 extent of the ancient Egyptians 46 00:01:47,399 --> 00:01:54,360 knowledge of the Americas British 47 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:56,640 archaeologist malib cesil fth in 1907 it 48 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:59,600 now resides in the museum of Nubia in 49 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:02,200 South Egypt the Nubia egg dates back to 50 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:05,039 about 7,000 years ago and it is nothing 51 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,039 short of a miracle that it has survived 52 00:02:05,039 --> 00:02:08,959 it was Unearthed from a burial site that 53 00:02:07,039 --> 00:02:11,039 has been associated with the period the 54 00:02:08,959 --> 00:02:14,519 central Nile Valley was teeming with 55 00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:16,920 early settlers or the very pioneers of 56 00:02:14,519 --> 00:02:19,680 civilization the egg was originally an 57 00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:22,080 ostrich eggshell coated in intricate 58 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:25,360 designs the patterns on the egg are 59 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:27,720 abstract and are what makes the egg so 60 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:30,400 controversial the egg has a depiction of 61 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:32,400 three triangles on opposite sides 62 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,920 these triangles have horizontal lines 63 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,480 stretching across them beside these 64 00:02:34,920 --> 00:02:39,400 triangles is a thin snake and on the 65 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:42,239 other side of the triangles is a big 66 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:44,480 globule etching this is where it gets 67 00:02:42,239 --> 00:02:47,000 interesting many scholars have claimed 68 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:49,400 the triangles represent pyramids and 69 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,920 being three in number they resemble the 70 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:55,159 three major pyramids located on the Gaza 71 00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:57,480 Plateau these are the Pyramid of Mena 72 00:02:55,159 --> 00:03:00,280 the Pyramid of kafra and the Great 73 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:02,959 Pyramid of kufu the snake is is said to 74 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:05,360 represent the Nile River with the Nubia 75 00:03:02,959 --> 00:03:07,120 egg being found in Lower Egypt there is 76 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,720 Little Wonder that some Scholars are 77 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:13,440 asking questions recall that the egg has 78 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:15,799 been dated to be about 7,000 years well 79 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:19,480 according to Modern belief the pyramids 80 00:03:15,799 --> 00:03:21,640 are only 4,600 years old there is a 81 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:24,159 discrepancy of more than 2,000 years 82 00:03:21,640 --> 00:03:26,159 between this egg and the pyramids so the 83 00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:28,560 question is how did the egg come to 84 00:03:26,159 --> 00:03:30,680 depict pyramids built thousands of years 85 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,560 after it was designed or could it be 86 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,439 that the pyramids are simply thousands 87 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:37,200 of years older than we have been told 88 00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:39,040 some theorists have said the triangles 89 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:42,120 are nothing but rudimentary depictions 90 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,760 of mountains however it is clear from 91 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,040 the symmetry of the art and the 92 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:48,280 horizontal lines that the artist was not 93 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,920 trying to represent naturally occurring 94 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:53,920 mountain ranges mountains do not 95 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:55,959 naturally have clean lines moreover one 96 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:59,439 must remember the science behind dating 97 00:03:55,959 --> 00:04:02,400 the pyramids Carbon 14 dating is not the 98 00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:04,360 best for dating Stone constructions they 99 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,400 are not even the most reliable when 100 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,959 dating 101 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,599 hieroglyphics in fact hieroglyphics 102 00:04:07,959 --> 00:04:12,079 could have been added to the pyramids at 103 00:04:09,599 --> 00:04:14,439 a later date perhaps when the pyramids 104 00:04:12,079 --> 00:04:16,400 were repurposed by the Egyptians there 105 00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:18,440 have long been criticisms of the 106 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:21,160 conventional methods used to date the 107 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:23,919 Giza Pyramids there are even allegations 108 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:26,080 of evidence forgery one of these is the 109 00:04:23,919 --> 00:04:29,120 controversy surrounding Colonel Howard 110 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:31,199 Vice it was this Colonel who claimed to 111 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,960 have discovered painted marks inside the 112 00:04:31,199 --> 00:04:35,960 relieving chambers of the Great Pyramid 113 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,080 the name of kufu was found in these 114 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,600 painted marks and he was then credited 115 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,680 with constructing the pyramid this piece 116 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:45,080 of info was then used to date the 117 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:47,400 pyramid the problem however was that 118 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:50,160 some researchers have speculated that it 119 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,840 was possible Vice made up these marks 120 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,199 perhaps to make a name for himself in 121 00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:56,960 the field and secure his place in 122 00:04:54,199 --> 00:04:58,680 history this allegation has caused many 123 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,600 people to scrutinize the Colonel's 124 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:03,320 character and what it could mean if he 125 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:05,560 really forged the evidence on the other 126 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,759 hand are those that have provided proof 127 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:10,160 that the pyramids are about 8,000 years 128 00:05:07,759 --> 00:05:12,440 old they also talk about the way the 129 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,960 pyramids align with some astronomical 130 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:17,520 phenomena that point to an older period 131 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,560 in history they also look for other 132 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,080 evidence that suggests that people of 133 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:24,360 ancient civilizations possessed the 134 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:26,919 tools and the skills required to build 135 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,919 such massive structures they point to 136 00:05:26,919 --> 00:05:30,280 geological evidence like weathering 137 00:05:28,919 --> 00:05:31,919 patterns 138 00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:34,720 this line of thought has been explored 139 00:05:31,919 --> 00:05:37,319 by Dr Robert shock a geologist and 140 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,479 professor at Boston University his work 141 00:05:37,319 --> 00:05:42,000 on the Sphinx which has guarded the Giza 142 00:05:39,479 --> 00:05:45,360 Pyramids for thousands of years centered 143 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:47,520 on weathering patterns shulk's curiosity 144 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,400 about the age of the Sphinx was sparked 145 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,479 when he observed distinct erosion 146 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,120 patterns that did not seem to align with 147 00:05:51,479 --> 00:05:56,240 what one would have expected from wind 148 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:58,160 and sand wind and sand are important 149 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,520 here because they are the main erosion 150 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,360 agents in Egypt's climate 151 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,400 the patterns instead tell a story of the 152 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:06,919 Sphinx being subjected to extended 153 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:08,599 periods of heavy rainfalls this would 154 00:06:06,919 --> 00:06:11,639 have caused deep weathering on the 155 00:06:08,599 --> 00:06:13,800 Bedrock made of limestone other sources 156 00:06:11,639 --> 00:06:15,680 confirm that such climatic conditions 157 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,199 have not been experienced in the Giza 158 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:20,280 Plateau for thousands of years this 159 00:06:18,199 --> 00:06:23,319 would mean the Sphinx probably was built 160 00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:25,319 before the Sahara Desert again the 161 00:06:23,319 --> 00:06:27,440 erosion pattern shock identified on the 162 00:06:25,319 --> 00:06:29,240 Sphinx's enclosure was vertical and 163 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:32,280 undulating which looked to have been 164 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:34,199 caused by running water other geologists 165 00:06:32,280 --> 00:06:35,919 apart from shock have confirmed that 166 00:06:34,199 --> 00:06:38,240 these features are proof of erosion 167 00:06:35,919 --> 00:06:40,280 caused by rainfall this would have been 168 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:44,280 prevalent in the Neolithic subpial 169 00:06:40,280 --> 00:06:46,599 period of 10,000 to 5,000 BC during this 170 00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:48,919 period the Sahara Desert used to have a 171 00:06:46,599 --> 00:06:51,919 wet climate that supported rivers and 172 00:06:48,919 --> 00:06:53,919 lakes what this means is that the Sphinx 173 00:06:51,919 --> 00:06:57,080 and the Giza Pyramids could have 174 00:06:53,919 --> 00:06:59,039 predated the dynasty Egypt period there 175 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:01,000 are other writings that suggest older 176 00:06:59,039 --> 00:07:03,759 dates for the construction of the 177 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:06,840 pyramids one such is the work of al- 178 00:07:03,759 --> 00:07:08,680 mcrey al- mcrey was an ancient Egyptian 179 00:07:06,840 --> 00:07:12,120 historian who contended that Pharaoh 180 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:14,319 kufu did not build the Great Pyramid 181 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:17,960 this historian ascribed it to a King 182 00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:21,720 named Sid the twist is that al- mrey 183 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:24,039 linked Sid to the biblical Enoch Al mrey 184 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,759 claimed Sid was a ruler full of wisdom 185 00:07:24,039 --> 00:07:28,000 which enabled him to foresee that a 186 00:07:25,759 --> 00:07:29,720 great flood would come he then ordered 187 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,680 the construction of the pyramid as a 188 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,759 repository of knowledge and as a 189 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:36,039 warehouse of the essence of 190 00:07:33,759 --> 00:07:38,080 civilization this story is not strange 191 00:07:36,039 --> 00:07:40,400 to the pre-islamic North African 192 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:43,160 tradition that worshiped stars and other 193 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,879 objects in space they often embedded 194 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:47,680 these celestial bodies into their 195 00:07:44,879 --> 00:07:49,560 religious and funerary practices what 196 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,479 this means is that the current method of 197 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,639 dating the pyramids could be a little 198 00:07:51,479 --> 00:07:55,680 more than guesswork there have been 199 00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:58,800 questions as to why the pyramids appear 200 00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:01,360 twice on the Nubia egg what if the 201 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,479 representation was a seasonal or Global 202 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,759 convention that represents the pyramids 203 00:08:03,479 --> 00:08:08,120 and the Nile River in the dry season and 204 00:08:05,759 --> 00:08:10,159 the wet season this thinking is 205 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,879 supported by the fact that the Niles on 206 00:08:10,159 --> 00:08:14,520 the eggs are not of the same width which 207 00:08:12,879 --> 00:08:17,319 would mean the changing volumes of the 208 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:19,080 river based on the season or Time of the 209 00:08:17,319 --> 00:08:22,000 Year this could mean that while the 210 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:23,840 Nubia egg depicts pyramids and a river 211 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,919 the inspiration for the design was 212 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:28,599 actually to depict The Changing Times of 213 00:08:25,919 --> 00:08:30,960 the Year there is something else of note 214 00:08:28,599 --> 00:08:33,200 near the top of the egg and fans of the 215 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,719 lost city of Atlantis would love this 216 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,599 one the egg has several concentric 217 00:08:35,719 --> 00:08:40,399 circles around a small opening at the 218 00:08:37,599 --> 00:08:42,760 top these According to some Scholars 219 00:08:40,399 --> 00:08:46,720 remind one of Plato's critias of around 220 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:48,480 360 BC in the literary work Plato 221 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,920 discussed the Atlantis with a brief 222 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:54,000 description that says making alternate 223 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:56,440 zones of sea and land larger and smaller 224 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:59,200 encircling one another there were two of 225 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:01,320 land and three of water which he turned 226 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,600 as with a lathe each having its 227 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:06,040 circumference equidistant every way from 228 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,600 the center could this have meant the 229 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:10,880 Nubia egg was depicting the 230 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:12,320 civilizations of both Egypt and Atlantis 231 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,920 if it turns out there is any 232 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:17,839 geographical correlation then Atlantis 233 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:19,680 may not be so distant from Egypt perhaps 234 00:09:17,839 --> 00:09:21,680 this decorated egg from thousands of 235 00:09:19,680 --> 00:09:24,600 years ago can help in the search for the 236 00:09:21,680 --> 00:09:26,959 ancient lost city of Atlantis if you 237 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,680 think that is shocking wait till we tell 238 00:09:26,959 --> 00:09:31,200 you about paintings that could prove the 239 00:09:28,680 --> 00:09:32,920 ancient Egyptian knew about the Americas 240 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:35,720 long before the Europeans started 241 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:37,360 sailing the Open Seas we are talking 242 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,360 about the paintings discovered in a 243 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:42,920 place that included the maps of both the 244 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:45,399 old world and the American continent the 245 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:48,839 place of the discovery was a site in 246 00:09:45,399 --> 00:09:51,320 Honis referred to as nein in ancient 247 00:09:48,839 --> 00:09:54,360 times to understand the background of 248 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:56,440 the existence of the map Honis was a 249 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:59,560 vibrant City that existed in pre- 250 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:02,360 Dynasty Egypt it was the religious and 251 00:09:59,560 --> 00:10:05,519 political capital of Upper Egypt and has 252 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:07,720 yielded many artifacts however none of 253 00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:10,880 these artifacts are as significant as 254 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:12,760 the map bearing painting trained eyes 255 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:15,079 immediately saw that these paintings 256 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,959 were much more than decorative pieces 257 00:10:15,079 --> 00:10:19,680 because they include recognizable 258 00:10:16,959 --> 00:10:22,200 continent outlines the degree of 259 00:10:19,680 --> 00:10:25,399 accuracy of other geographic features is 260 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:27,279 also very high scanning the paintings 261 00:10:25,399 --> 00:10:29,760 for a few minutes will show you the 262 00:10:27,279 --> 00:10:31,760 American continent how could the artists 263 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,959 have known to include the American 264 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,839 continent it simply has to be that the 265 00:10:33,959 --> 00:10:38,360 painters and the civilization they 266 00:10:35,839 --> 00:10:41,079 belong to knew about the existence of 267 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,959 the continent or at most they must have 268 00:10:41,079 --> 00:10:45,120 had contact with the native people of 269 00:10:42,959 --> 00:10:47,639 America what this implies is that there 270 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:49,880 were trans Oceanic voyages even at that 271 00:10:47,639 --> 00:10:52,519 time Millennia before explorers like 272 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:54,639 Christopher Columbus did the Egyptians 273 00:10:52,519 --> 00:10:56,399 send explorers to cross the Atlantic 274 00:10:54,639 --> 00:10:58,560 long before the time we have been told 275 00:10:56,399 --> 00:10:59,920 that it happened did they have 276 00:10:58,560 --> 00:11:02,800 substantial dealings with the 277 00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:04,959 civilizations in America apart from the 278 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:07,040 map of America in these paintings there 279 00:11:04,959 --> 00:11:09,639 are maps of Europe that also amazed 280 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:12,959 observers with their level of accuracy 281 00:11:09,639 --> 00:11:15,760 it shows the outlines of Europe Asia and 282 00:11:12,959 --> 00:11:18,000 Africa it even shows well-known features 283 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:20,360 like the Nile River the Mediterranean 284 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:23,040 Sea and the mountain ranges of Europe 285 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,920 and Asia the map makers must have either 286 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:28,560 been explorers themselves or had access 287 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,040 to a database of geographical knowledge 288 00:11:28,560 --> 00:11:32,839 which could have been accumulated over 289 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:35,360 the years through international trade or 290 00:11:32,839 --> 00:11:37,600 Explorations the map's artistic style 291 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,880 and techniques on the painting also 292 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:42,399 amazed researchers speaking to the 293 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:45,360 quality of their output they used 294 00:11:42,399 --> 00:11:47,120 natural pigments and precise Line work 295 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,079 but perhaps their greatest achievement 296 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,240 is making us rethink what we thought we 297 00:11:49,079 --> 00:11:55,560 knew about the first non-native people 298 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:55,560 to set foot on American soil 22760
