MessageToEagle.com - Apparently not all prehistoric massive stone
boxes were used to keep human remains.
However, no obvious clue to their purpose has ever
been found.
Could these large boxes have been used as containers
to preferably keep unknown chemical liquids instead of dead bodies?
What kind of chemical experiments were conducted in
tunnels and chambers of ancient Egypt?
An advanced technology must have been involved in
construction of prehistoric sarcophagi and many theorists propose that
sarcophagus was an ancient vessel used to withstand volatile chemical
reactions.
It is a mystery how the unknown stone builders managed
to get the sarcophagus through small openings, unless, the stone box was
created inside the ancient chamber.
Many of them were found in rooms with very small
entrances. It is a mystery how the unknown stone builders managed to get the
sarcophagus through such a small opening, unless, the stone box was created
inside the ancient chamber.
The sarcophagus, in the old, twelfth-century abbey in
Arles-sur-Tech, France, for example, covered with a heavy lid and standing on
two 20 cm high pedestals, is separated from both the walls and the ground. Despite
this, it mysteriously fills with water.
What was found in these granite boxes?
It is estimated that the sacred tomb, unaffected by weather conditions, produces yearly
approximately 100-800 liters pure water and about one liter every day.
Probably all of us know that a sarcophagus is a stone container for a coffin or body.
In some of them, there were found human remains, but the vast majority of these stone
constructions were found empty.

Archaeologists believe that if the human remains are
missing, it means the sarcophagus was simply robbed in ancient or or modern
times by people looking for ancient treasures.
It would be however, wise to reconsider a possibility
that not all ancient stone sarcophagi were robbed by tomb raiders. Is it
possible to provide some other explanation for the lack of the contracted body
in stone coffins of the ancients?
Some of the sarcophagi have large, highly detailed
ornamentation in gold and silver, the name of deceased and engraved
hieroglyphics inscriptions. Many others were simple, very heavy and massive
stone boxes looking more like "bathtubs", with no ornaments at all,
giving the impression to be rather anonymous.
Some sarcophagi were originally discovered in a deep
recess in the floor, other on a socle or stone base. Those anonymous ones,
looking more like "bathtubs" were found just standing on the floor.
Why were some of them built in a very large size
exceeding that of the body?
Why were all sarcophagi/stone vessels made of a block
of stone?
Was it easy or hard work to cut them, especially those made of solid granite?
The builders in ancient Egypt shaped many kinds of stone with accomplished mastery but we cannot figure out how the tools were used and where they are.

No remains of the used tools have been found. We know
almost nothing about the skills of the builders because no ancient written or
graphic records come to light which mention or describe their use.
According to Professor Flinders Petrie (1853 -1942),
an English Egyptologist who examined the granite sarcophagus in the King's
Chamber, witnessed the remarkable precision with which the box/container had
been carved out of a single block of extremely hard granite! Petrie,
considering nineteenth century technology, determined that diamond tipped
drills would need to have been applied with a pressure oftwo tons, in
order to hollow out the granite box.
He suggested using diamond drills of great speed
cutting in order to achieve such a masterwork.
Even with technologies of the twenty-first century, we
have to admit it is a difficult challenge.
Did the ancient masters do some kind of
"magic" or were they in a possession of highly advanced techniques of
the gods?
Granite is a product of nature, with amazing
properties. This stone is a good thermal electrical insulator (resists the flow
of electric current.)
As much as twenty four mysterious granite boxes, each
weighing between 60 to 80 tons, except for one that weighed 100 tons were
discovered in the tunnel system, at Saqqara, the main necropolis of Memphis,
Egypt. All boxes were cut out of one piece of solid granite and
placed on one side of the tunnel.
Would you like to guess what was found in these
granite boxes?
Actually, nothing was ever found inside them, but one
contained a stinking mass of bones that were mixed with bitumen. On the ceiling
of one of underground chambers, there was found a thick layer of minerals in
the red circle. In this chamber, there was also one of the mysterious solide
granite boxes.
"What kind of chemical experiments were conducted
in tunnels and chambers of ancient Egypt?"
There is still much we do not know about ancient
technologies of ancient Egypt.
