Speaker 2: What of the most mysterious pyramids on Earth aren't hidden
in the sands of Egypt, but scattered across the Americas, buried, ignored,
or misunderstood. What of these ancient structures were never meant
to be tombs at all, but something far more advanced.
Follow me down the rabbit hole about the American pyramids. Hello, friends,
and welcome back to the rabbit Hole. I'm your host, Danny,
and today we are talking about the pyramids, but not
the ones we all know in Egypt. We're exploring everything
from tunnels filled with mercury to advance ancient observatories. Thank you, Reya.

Speaker 3: I know it's already Christmas time.
Speaker 2: Great gift for somebody, especially silver prices on the rise,
go to rabbit hole dot gold right now. There are
many competing narratives and theories about the function and purpose
of the pyramids in America and whether some of them
could even be considered pyramids at all or just mounds.
In the present day United States, many Native American cultures
built monumental earthworks that function as pyramids. What distinguishes them
as mounds rather than official pyramids is that they were
not built of stone. The structures were built by successive
cultures collectively known as the mound Builders. These cultures are
known as the Archaic Period, which is responsible for the
Watson Break in Louisiana circa like thirty five hundred BCE.
The Watson Break is an ancient archaeological site near Monroe, Louisiana,
and is actually older than the Great Pyramid of Giza.
It's the oldest known mound complex in North America. The
next culture period included the Edena and Hopewell cultures in
the Ohio River Valley circa seven hundred BCE to four
fifty CE. These cultures built burial mounds and complex geometric earthworks.
The Mississippian culture thrived in the Midwest, Eastern, and southeastern
United States. They built large, flat top platform mounds for temples,
elite residences, and ceremonial duties. Monks Mound is the largest
prehistoric earthwork in the Americas, consisting of four terraces and
covering over fourteen acres at its base, so it's huge.
Speaker 3: It was this.
Speaker 2: Massive, flat topped pyramid that supported a large temple or
chief's residence. The mounds serve various purposes, including burial sites
for high ranking individuals and ceremonial places, platforms for temples
and residences of chiefs or priests, and civic centers for large,
complex urban settlements. The meso America's stone pyramids are located
south of the United States in what is called meso
America so modern day Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize. These ancient
civilizations built the iconic stepped stone pyramids that often come
to mind when you think of like American pyramids. These
structures are noted to be constructed by the great civilizations
that include the Olmechs, one of the earliest civilizations circa
one thousand BCE. The Mayans known for building magnificent cities
and pyramids across the Yuccatim Peninsula and Central America.
Speaker 3: The Aztecs credited for.
Speaker 2: Building the Great Pyramid of to nose Tilon, the site
of modern day Mexico City, and the Teotiocon culture credited
for building the immense Pyramid of the Sun and Pyramid
of the Moon. The Pyramid of the Sun at Teo Tucon, Mexico,
rivals the Great Pyramids of Egypt in scale and placement.
The El Castillo, or Temple of Kukulkin at chichen Itza
is known for its astronomical alignments. The Great Pyramid of
Chilulu is the largest pyramid in the world by volume.
These pyramids were central to public life. Typically, they had
flat top temples where religious ceremonies, including rituals and sacrifices
were performed. Some pyramids served as tombs for rulers and
other elite individuals. Many were aligned with celestial events such
as equinoxes and solstices, which we know is also the
case for the Pyramid and Giza, but also the case
for a lot of these structures like the Georgia guidestones
and stone hinge and different things like that. The archaeological
view on the origins of these pyramids is that knowledge
and architectural techniques did not arrive fully formed, but evolved slowly,
building on earlier traditions in North and meso America. The
meso American civilizations Ulmec, Mayan, Aztech and ted Tubcans were complex,
centralized societies with highly developed systems of mathematics, astronomy, and
political organization. The concept of a stepped platform mound for
a temple seems to have developed locally with the Olmec
civilizations as early as one thousand BCE. The theory is
that the tradition was passed down and perfected by later cultures,
which makes perfect sense everybody's kind of in the same region.
The societies developed the necessary engineering skills, such as quarrying
massive stone blocks with harder stone tools, calculating angles, and
mobilezing enormous labor forces without the wheel for transportation or
metal tools for cutting. The pyramids served as astronomical observatories
and ritual centers. Their precise alignments, such as the Pyramid
of Coolkolcin at chichen Itza, proved that the builders had
highly sophisticated kellendric and astronomical knowledge that guided the design
of these structures. As for the North American mounds, the
archaeological view is that the knowledge of earthwork construction evolved
over millennia. In the Mississippian and preceding cultures, the practice
would have dated back at least fifty four hundred years,
as in the case at Watson Break, Louisiana, which predates
the Egyptian pyramids. This view theorizes that the earliest mounds
were built by hunter gatherer societies, showing that complex construction
was an early marker of social organization. The later massive
platform mounds, like the Monk Mound at Kahokia, were constructed
in basket loads, requiring immense centralized labor over generations. This
demonstrates a sophisticated level of political and religious authority, capable
of organizing thousands of workers and coordinating logistics which they
think their hunter gather societies don't really have all that
going on.
Speaker 3: Obviously that's not true.
Speaker 2: The engineering knowledge was based on understanding local soil composition
and construction methods for creating durable structures from packed clay
and earth, often in multiple construction phases. The mainstream archaeological
view says there is definitive evidence that the knowledge and
skills both types of structures originated and developed within the
Americas as part of a continuous culture and intellectual tradition
spanning thousands of years. The mound builder theory claims that
a lost ancient race of highly civilized people often theorized
to be Europeans like the Welsh or Danes, the Hindus,
and the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, built the mounds
and were subsequently wiped out by the savage Native Americans.
In reality, this was found to be a politically and
racially motivated myth used to justify the removal of Native
Americans from their lands. The accusation that Native Americans could
not have built these structures was used to prove that
they did not belong to the continent or deserve the
land's history. The next theory is super interesting The idea
is that, just like with the Egyptian pyramids, ancient astronauts
or extraterrestrial intervention are responsible for the precision, size and
complexity of structures like the Pyramid of the Sun or
the Maya Temples, which could not have been achieved by
primitive civilizations only using stone tools, which is the same
argument that we have for the Egyptian pyramids. Therefore, extraterrestrial
beings must have visited Earth in the past and imparted
superior building technology or engineering knowledge to the builders. But
also along these same lines, they could have built the
pyramids and then the people living there could have just
inhabited them and then used them for whatever purposes.
Speaker 3: This is kind of where the.
Speaker 2: Onanaki come in some times the Atlanteans as well. Finally,
there is the Transatlantic trans ocean contact theory. This theory,
given the presence of pyramids in Egypt and Mesopotamia, claim
that a pre Columbian civilization from Africa, the Middle East,
or even the mythical Atlantis, taught the Americans how to
build these pyramid structures. This coincides with the idea that
the Atlanteans taught the Egyptians how to build their pyramids
as well. The biggest thing about this theory is that
the pyramids look different. But if the Atlanteans were a
global civilization like us today, different regions would likely do
things differently. Either way, the basic idea is the same
Atlanteans taught the Egyptians Atlanteans taught the Americans. However, they
were constructed using a variety of different materials. The Egyptian
pyramids are made of massive limestone blocks, with finer white
limestone used for the polish outer casting, granted for burial
chambers and structural elements, and mortar mud, bricks and basalt.
The American pyramids are made of earth, clay, ash, sometimes
animal bones, mica, stucco which is like a lime plaster, rubble,
and cut limestone. The most obvious similarity among pyramids worldwide
is the use of limestone, so maybe the other things
don't really matter. Limestone is used for a multitude of
purposes in construction infrastructure. It is the main ingredient for
Portland cement, which is vital for modern buildings. Crushed limestone
provides a strong base for roads, driveways and foundations, supporting
and draining. It is used for durable anesthetic facades, flooring,
and decorative elements in history and in modern buildings today,
so it's very well used.
Speaker 3: In industrial applications.
Speaker 2: It acts as a flux to remove impurities during smelting.
In its raw form, calcium oxide could be used in
water treatment, paper making, and soil improvement, which also makes
sense that they're using the limestone in areas where the soil.
Speaker 3: Is really rich.
Speaker 2: The environmental and geological significance is that limestone helps neutralize
acidity and purify water. Agg Lime neutralizes acidic soils, improving
crop yields. It is rich in fossils, providing insights into
pass marine and terrestrial life and habitats. Limestone is primarily
calcium carbonate. It is strong, adaptable to various materials, and
long lasting. Its natural porous material helps regulate moisture in
building applications. Limestone is common in pyramids, but one pyramid
has a very rare element beneath it in a tunnel.
The excavation of the tunnel beneath the temple of Ketzelcouatal
or the feathered Serpent in Teatiicon, Mexico, revealed a remarkable
variety of objects, including thousands of sacrificial and ritual items,
and even clay balls completely covered in gold flakes. Yet
the fire finding that confounds traditional interpretation is the presence
of pure liquid.
Speaker 3: Mercury, which is very odd.
Speaker 2: Mercury was known and used by ancient civilizations for millennia. However,
the deposits were historically located in Spain, Italy, and Peru,
not in meso America. The ancient Egyptians had it around
fifteen hundred BCE. Chinese alchemists saw mortality with it, and
it was used as a pigment in caves and tombs worldwide.
What makes the discovery under the feathered serpent so interesting
is that the mercury is rarely found as a pure
liquid metal, actually almost never. The ancient peoples who use
mercury heated cinabar mercury sulfide in crucibles, releasing mercury vapor
that was then condensed into liquid metal, which is a
tedious process, making the discovery of pure liquid mercury in
the sealed tunnel a very mysterious phenomenon. The most acceptable
theory is that the mercury's reflective shimmering surface symbolize a
mythical underworld river or lake, a sacred portal to a
realm of the gods or the realm of the deceased. However,
the problem with this is that mercury is highly toxic
and very difficult to mine and process into a liquid form.
To make a pool of it just because it's esthetically
pleasing doesn't seem like it's really worth the effort, especially
given how dangerous it is. Like, it just doesn't make
a whole lot of sense for them to do this.
That doesn't mean that they didn't, it just seems really unlikely.
Another thing to consider is the context of other materials involved.
The mercury was found alongside other materials with unique electrical properties,
like mica, a dielectric insulator that lines specific structures within
the city, and large amounts of pyrite, which is a semiconductor.
This trio of materials is considered too deliberate to be
a mere coincidence, and as we all know, say it
with me, we don't believe in coincidences around here. This
brings us to the energy capacitor hypothesis. This theory suggests
that the entire pyramid and tunnel system functioned as a
massive resonant energy of device or a form of ancient capacitor,
which mirrors the theory about the Egyptian pyramids as well.
Mercury would have been used as the conductor in this case.
The metallic liquid is an excellent electrical conductor. Its placement
at the deepest, most inaccessible point of the pyramid suggests
it was not just an offering, but a crucial component.
It is suggested that it was intended to serve as
a low resistance contact or a stabilizing element within a circuit.
Mica could have been used as an insulator. Mica is
an excellent insulator found in sheets large enough to line
entire temples, indicating knowledge of electrical separation and energy storage.
The placement of this material seems designed to isolate or
direct an energy field. The pyramid would have been the
antenna basically, especially because all this was found in the
tunnel underneath the pyramid. Some theories proposed that the pyramids
shape and stone composition were designed to capture and amplify
natural earth or atmospheric energy, essentially acting as an enormous
passive receiver or antenna. The mercury and mica would then regulate, store,
or transmit this energy. If the Tata Tibicon complex was
an energy machine. What was it actually used for the question,
that's like the million dollar question right. Theories about this vary,
but ultimately it leads to several conclusions. It could have
been a long distance communication system, acting as a device
to enhance spiritual or shamanic communication with other dimensional realms.
It also could have been a manufacturing plant. The energy
could have been used to power a forgotten advanced manufacturing
process us like cutting and shaping the extremely hard materials
found at the site. And also it could have been
a stargate concept. Basically, this theory suggests that the shimmering
mercury served as the endpoint of a massive energy concentration system.
It was intended to stabilize a powerful energy field, possibly
creating a temporary portal or stargate for transport or interdimensional travel,
much like the show Stargate or like the CIA Project Stargate.
Although pure liquid mercury has been found only in large
quantities under the feather serpent pyramid, the source material for
mercury is found at other American sites. Cinebar, the ore
used to create liquid mercury, was highly valued in many
meso American cultures such as the Mayans and Olmes. For
its red color, which symbolized blood and life. Mica is
the most significant link. Mica, a powerful insulator found in large,
non local sheets under Tattu Bcon's pyramid of the Sun,
is also present at other ancient sites across the Americas.
Theorists claim that if micah were only decoration, it would
be used superficially and not in a way that's actually functioning.
Speaker 3: However, since it was.
Speaker 2: Used in thick layers inside core structures at Tatuocon, the
theory holds that wherever mica is similarly buried or intentionally integrated,
that structure must also have been an energy machine or capacitor,
which makes a lot of sense. Also, as a side note,
it is hilarious to me how they tried to pass
all of this off as decoration, the mica, the mercury,
like all of it, and how many people probably believe that, like, yeah,
there's all this mercury under this pyramid in this tunnel
just because it looked fun Like that makes no sense anyway.
The energy theories heavily rely on the idea of lay
lines or the alignments of ancient sites. This is extremely
important lay lines are hypothetical lines that connect geographically distinct
ancient structures, sacred sites, and landmarks, such as stone circles, mounds,
ancient churches, megaliths, or, in this.
Speaker 3: Case, pyramids.
Speaker 2: The Teatiwakan itself is laid out on a precise geometric
grid that is slightly misaligned from true north, leading to
theories that it was aligned to specific celestial events or
to harness a particular earth energy field. The connecting line
theory suggests that the pyramids of the Maya such as
chichen Itza and Tychole, as well as those of the
Olmec and others, were intentionally positioned along these same unseen
global energy pathways. The mercury in the Tatiwakan tunnel therefore,
wasn't a local ritual offering, but a terminal point or
stabilizer for an energy current flowing through these worldwide lines.
The North American mounds concept extends to the earthworks and
mounds in North America, like Cohokia and the Serpent mount
Theorists argue that the geometric precision and massive scale of
these sites, though not stone pyramids, served a similar function
in the network, possibly using the underground water or unique
minerals to interact with the Earth's resonant frequency, which that's
what all of these pyramids are doing. They are aligning
with outer space, They're aligning with the Earth, They're aligning
with each.
Speaker 3: Other to create this energy field.
Speaker 2: The main thing tying the pyramids together is the presence
of mercury and mica and the sheer impossibility of their construction,
which points to a superior los civilizations like the Atlanteans,
an extraterrestrial intervention like the Autanaki, or to an ancient
advanced global culture that built these structures across all continents
using a unified energy based design. The Pyramid of the
Sun also has an extensive ancient tunnel system beneath it.
The idea is that if if one pyramid has a
mercury field energy channel, the others, like the Sun and
the Moon, must also have similar power cores.
Speaker 3: Awaiting discovery.
Speaker 2: There is a theory that the builders of the pyramids
were ordinary and had no rulership over them. There is
difficulty proving whether this is true of Tea Tuacon because
it left no clear royal lineage like the Mayans Diad.
The mystery of Tatuacon has led many theorists to suggest
that the city was a temporary outpost or a scientific
complex operated by mysterious Atlantean or pre flood engineers who
created the entire planetary grid. Whatever those pre flood engineers were,
it's unknown. The Mercury Tunnel discovery is considered the smoking
gun that confirms the existence of a high tech, global
spanning ancient electrical grid, and some will say that this
is impossible, But Tesla was also working on a way
to send energy through space. What if ancient civilizations had
the technology way before Tesla. That's kind of what Tesla
was basing all of his theories off of, and all
of his inventions off of. We're gonna get into that
just a little bit more in a minute, but I
just thought i'd mention it. The Mayan Pyramids are a
prime example of the energy grid theory, but the connection
focuses less on the internal wiring and more on the
alignment and resonance.
Speaker 3: El Castillo, or.
Speaker 2: The Pyramid of Kukolkin, is famous for its nearly perfect
astronomical alignments. Theorists suggests this alignment wasn't just for calendars,
but also for maximizing the structure's interaction with Earth's magnetic
field at precise moments such as solstices and equinoxes. The
theory argues that the pyramid acts as a resonant antenna,
capturing energy from the heavens and the Earth. Many Mayan
and Aztec pyramids, including El Castillo, had famous acoustic anomalies,
such as the sound of footsteps at the base echoing
back as a churb of a ketzel. Theorists claim these
acoustics were not accidental, but a deliberate design feature to
create sonic vibrations, which we talked about again with the
Egyptian pyramids. In the energy theory, sound waves are a
form of mechanical energy that can be converted into electricity
through the Pieesel electric effect, a phenomenon also theorized for
the quartz content of the Egyptian Giza stones.
Speaker 3: The Olmec, which is.
Speaker 2: Considered the mother culture of Mesoamerica, is linked to the
theory through their use of specific materials. Mica, as we've
gone over, was found in large sheets there as well.
The theory suggests that wherever advanced cultures use mica in construction,
not just as reflective coating might have had a shared
technological blueprint for building large scale electrical capacitors to store
or channel energy. The Olmecs also incorporated iron ore mirrors.
They were master sculptors of iron ore into highly polished
concave mirrors. Mainstream archaeology classifies these as ritual objects, but
other theorists suggest they were used as magnetic components or
energy focusing devices due to their unique properties. The next
theory expands to view the entire geographical distribution of sites
across North, Central and South America as an international network.
The global grid theory originated in the concept of the
Giza Pyramids, which suggests that all ancient megalith sites are
part of a worldwide grid. From the Peruvian structures like
Majupchu to North American Khokia mounds, they are internationally placed
on lay lines. The American pyramids are therefore seen as
nodes in the planetary energy network, and the Tiocon Mercury
discovery serving as a regulatory mechanism for this specific node.
There's also the Tesla connection, which I alluded to a
little bit earlier. The theory is woven into Nikola Tesla's work,
who famous experimented with wireless energy transmission from his Wardencliffe
Tower on Long Island. Theorists claim Tesla was merely rediscovering
the knowledge of the ancients, and that the pyramids served
as his model for global wireless power system that harnessed
the Earth's natural residence. Tesla's idea was to transmit electrical
energy through the natural medium, using the Earth's surface and
ionosphere as a conductor, which mirrors what the pyramids may
or may not have been doing. This means that Ta
Tiwa Kan mercury is the oldest and most tangible piece
of evidence for the American electrical grid theory. The system
itself is theorized to extend to any pyramid or significant
ancient structure that exhibits precise alignment, unusual internal structures, or
the use of materials with conductive or insulating properties.
Speaker 3: So, who were these.
Speaker 2: Master mariners or forgotten civilizations capable of crossing oceans and
implanting a unified technological blueprint. We have a couple leading candidates,
the Phoenicians, the Egyptians, and even the mysterious Nine Travelers. First,
let's go over who the Phoenicians are. They are the
undisputed masters of ancient navigation. They didn't just sail the Mediterranean,
they dominated the Mediterranean. They were based in city states
like Tier and Sidan in modern day Lebanon. They invented
the alphabet and were the most sophisticated shipbuilders of their time.
Historical accounts, including those of the Greek historian Herodotus, confirmed
that the Phoenicians were capable of voyages far beyond the Mediterranean,
even circumnavigating Africa. Their ships were designed for open ocean travel,
which makes it possible that they could have gone anywhere.
Theorists point out that if a ship sailed west from
their famous colony of Carthage in North Africa, it would
enter the Atlantic currents that flow directly towards the Caribbean
and meso America. The theory also argues that these master
mariners and their descendants and Carthage either deliberately planted colonies
or were shipwrecked in the Americas. They could have taken
and used their advanced knowledge of geometry, astronomy, and large
scale engineering, the very expertise needed to design the functioning
energy antenna like the Pyramid of Kukulkin. Egyptians also have
a place in this theory. This one is easy for
many people because of the visual similarities between the pyramids.
Speaker 3: However, it goes a lot.
Speaker 2: Deeper than just the shape because they're not precisely the same.
While American pyramids are stepped and capped with temples and
Egyptian pyramids are smooth sided, theorists argue that the fundamental
shared architectural choice, the limestone pyramid, is actually the key
to this one. As mentioned before, limestone is mostly calcium carbonate,
and in the Egyptian power plant theory, the structure uses
the pyramids shape in line stone's electrical properties to resonate
with the earth. Theorists also linked the Egyptian pyramids courts
content used to generate a piezoelectric effect, which converts mechanical
pressure into electrical energy, to the acoustic anomalies found in
Mayan temples such.
Speaker 3: As l Castio.
Speaker 2: This suggests a unified acoustic to electric power generation concept
shared between Egypt and Meso America. Other claims find Egyptian
style mummies and symbols in South American cultures, attempting to
prove direct cultural transmission not just of architecture, but also
of burial rights and scientific knowledge. Somehow Atlantis always comes
into play. We're talking about ancient conspiracies, but this one
actually makes a lot of sense, so hang with me.
This theory suggests that the source of technology did not
come from any currently known culture, but a forgotten, highly
advancivilization like Atlantis and the Nine Travelers. The Atlantean blueprint
is the ultimate lost technology theory right because they were
so far advanced. As the theory goes, theorists suggests that
Atlantis or a similar power pre flood civilization was the
originator of the entire global energy grid, which also makes
sense if they're a global civilization that they would want
a global energy grid. When Atlantis was destroyed, surviving Atlantean
scientists or engineers were scattered across the globe, bringing their
advanced technology blueprint for pyramids and energy nodes to both
Egypt and the Americas simultaneously.
Speaker 3: This would explain.
Speaker 2: Why they were rebuilding the planetary grid. Since the builders
of Tan Tubcon left no clear royal lineage or identifiable names,
they are easily slotted into the role of temporary outposts
or scientific commune established by these mysterious Atlantean survivors. With
their mission being to build a city's power core, culminating
in the Mercury Tunnel, the ultimate proof of this advanced science.
Whether it was the Phoenician sailors spreading the knowledge of
geometry or Atlantean refugees rebuilding a massive power grid, the
core of the Transoceanic contact theory is that the builders
of the American Pyramids were not acting alone, but as
part of this global, technologically sophisticated system. If the Phoenicians, Egyptians,
Atlantans or others reached the Americas, they must have left
something behind, and, according to some believers in this theory,
they did. Mainstream archeology classifies these finds as either forgeries, misinterpretations,
or coincidental similarities. Again, no coincidence is here, but for
conspiracy theorists, these are smoking guns proving that the American
Pyramids were built by outsiders, or at least with their help.
The most direct way to prove contact is through writing
and the real alleged inscriptions that have driven the debate
for decades, which brings us to the Para Eva inscription
in Brazil. This is probably the most famous alleged Phoenician inscription,
discovered in eighteen seventy two in Brazil. It supposedly detailed
a Phoenician ship separated from its fleet, landing on the
coast in the sixth century BCE. The claim is that
it is definitive proof that Phoenician mariners, the greatest sailors
of antiquity, made a successful transatlantic voyage. Of course, nobody
wants to believe that, but this could be proof. However,
they want you to believe the inscription was a forgery
by scholars shortly before its discovery. Like they went in there,
they wrote some things on the thing. They were like, look,
we discovered this.
Speaker 3: That doesn't even make any sense.
Speaker 2: They claimed that the grammatical mistakes prove that it could
not have been written in the sixth century, which, like,
how do they know people in the sixth century could
have made mistakes. The next interesting writing was found at
the Back Creek Stone in Tennessee. In eighteen eighty nine,
an inscribed stone was found in an ancient burial Mounta
in Tennessee. Some have interpreted it as bearing Phoenician or
Paleo Hebrew script. The claim here is that it proves
Semitic people, Phoenicians, or an early group of Israelites reached
North America and interacted with the mound builders, potentially imparting
knowledge that led to the development of the Kahokiah Complex. Officially,
they want you to believe that it's just this misreading
or a fraud that kind of fits their narrative a
little bit better. But writing is not the only evidence
there is. Some architectural and artistic details are too precise
to have evolved independently on two different continents. The Mayans
extensively use the corbel arch, a structure made of successive
layers of stone that project outward until they meet at
the top. True arches were used in the Old World.
The claim is that the corbel arch, a technologically inferior
but unique architectural solution, must have been taught by the
same group in both places, perhaps by a survivor group
from a common precursor civilization such as Atlantis.
Speaker 3: The mainstream view.
Speaker 2: Here is that the corbel arch is an intuitive way
to bridge a gap using stone blocks, common in many
cultures across history, and that it simply represents an early
stage of engineering before the invention of the proper keystone arch.
That's what they want you to believe. Of course, they
always have some sort of explanation. Next is the bearded
white God. There is a persistent presence of sculptures of
a bearded, light skinned deity in various meso American cultures,
often associated with Ketzlkuadal.
Speaker 3: And it is claimed as evidence of an Old World visitor.
Speaker 2: The claim is that this deity must have been a
highly revered Phoenician, Egyptian, or even European visitor who arrived
with advanced knowledge and was mistaken for a god establishing
technological traditions. If writing and art weren't in stray, biology
and botany that crossed oceans far earlier than Columbus may
be the key to this whole theory. A major controversy
arose when traces of nicotine from tobacco and cocaine from
the coca plant were found in Egyptian mummies dating back
over three thousand years.
Speaker 3: Tobacco and coca.
Speaker 2: Were exclusively native to the Americas, they weren't even in
Egypt at the time. This could be irrefutable proof of
pre Columbian trade between the Americas in Egypt or the
Near East, showing that sailors like the Phoenicians or Egyptians
were conducting regular voyages back and forth. Of course, they'll
tell you that these findings resulted from contamination in a
lab or from later treatments.
Speaker 3: Of the mummies. But it's just so odd.
Speaker 2: And other odd cross migrations come from the sweet potato,
the sweet potatoes native to the Americas, what was being
cultivated in Polynesia centuries before any known European contact. The
claim is that if the Pacific people's the Polynesians could
cross the Pacific and land in South America, then it
is perfectly logical that the superior Phoenician or Egyptian mariners
could cross the narrower Atlantic. It proves that ancient transatlantic
and trans Pacific travel was far more common than history admits,
supporting this global grid theory, and also disproving the theory
that they've taught us our entire lives that Columbus discovered
America when they could have been coming to Americas this
whole time. Now, all of this brings us to the
glaring question why did the global energy grid go dark?
What happened to all this technology? So far, we've established
the theory that the American pyramids were nodes in a
massive ancient technological network powered by Earth's residents and possibly
regulated by the liquid beneath Tea Tucon. For theorists, the
collapse of these magnificent civilizations, like the mysterious disappearance of
Teotucon's rulers or the sudden abandonment of major Mayan cities,
was not a gradual social or environmental process, but a
single catastrophic technological or military failure. The most visceral theory
holds that the pyramid grid didn't just stop working, It
experienced a catastrophic failure that wiped out the highly advanced
builders and destroyed their knowledge base. If the pyramids were
truly acting as capacitors or energy transmission devices like Tesla's
wireless power, then a fault in a single central node,
such as the mercury chamber at Tea Tucon could have
triggered a massive chain reaction. Theorists suggests an uncontrolled energy
release that led to localized catastrophes, essentially overloading the global
system and making the powerful pyramids basically unusable. This catastrophic
event would explain the sudden, violent collapse of the ruling
elite and the prompt ceiling of key areas such as
the feathered serpent tunnel. This also kind of makes sense
when you think back to the Pyramid's episode which I
will link that in the show notes, and there's evidence
of an explosion in the King's chamber. Could that be
one of these catastrophic events. The darker version suggests the
technology wasn't for power at all, but for weaponry. The
pyramid complexes could have been designed to focus telluric energy
into a weapon, maybe a powerful seismic or atmospheric disruptor.
An accidental firing or misuse of this weapon could have
led to a rapid civilization ending environmental change or destruction,
leaving the builders scattered or dead. The next theory completely
bypasses the need for a physical catastrophe. It just conceals
the true t It suggests that the advanced technological knowledge
didn't disappear, it was intentionally hidden or suppressed by a
succeeding or invading power. There may have been a successor culture.
As cultures like the Aztecs rose to prominence, they deliberately
misrepresented the true purpose of older structures, such as those
at Teatiacon. The technological use of the pyramids was marked
by turning them into temples for rituals and sacrifices. This
explains why the Mayan Aztecs built temples with flat tops.
They were ritualistically reclaiming the structures and replacing the memory
of the technological core with religious ceremony. There may also
have been intentional sealing. The ceiling of the Mercury tunnel
at Teatiacon becomes the prime evidence. The immense effort to
seal the tunnel of rubble and block access suggests that
the builders were not just abandoning the religious site, but
were urgently burying dangerous or sensitive technology that they did
not want others to access or misuse. They didn't lose
the knowledge, they just locked it away. Another probable explanation
involves environmental and genetic collapse known as the Atlantean decay.
This theory links back to the concept of the Atlantean
or extraterrestrial builders, who are supposedly superior to the native populations.
If the engineers, like the Atlanteans or the Nine Travelers,
were a genetically distinct small group, the theory suggests that
they may have succumbed to a localized disease, genetic degradation,
or simply been absorbed and diluted by the surrounding native populations.
Without the original engineers to maintain the complex advanced systems,
the technological secrets of the pyramid were inevitably lost, like
they just didn't know how to work it. Resource depletion
may also have played a role. This theory argues that
while the peers ran on free energy, the construction and
maintenance required rare resources, such as labor to extract centabar
from mercury or the quarrying of mica. As resources became
sacred or trade routes collapsed, the engineers could no longer
maintain the integrity of the grid, leading to a slow
decay of the power system. The struggling survivors simply forgot
the knowledge. The creepiest part of this entire theory about
the American Pyramids is that we are living on a
planet powered by a dormant technological grid, a grid that
went dark due to either a devastating meltdown, a successful
suppression effort, or the inevitable decay of a superior civilization.
Pyramids stand today not as tombs or temples, but as silent,
enormous monuments to a catastrophe that robbed humanity of its
true advanced past.
Speaker 3: But what do you guys all think? Is it all
just a coincidence? I don't think so.
Speaker 2: Did these giant pyramids and mounds just rise up by
the power of inferior humans all over the world using
the same materials, artworks, writing, and astrological precision? That just
does not make any sense all around the world. Could
it be the world of our brilliant human ancestors whose
advanced technology mysteriously disappeared, Or with all the recent UFO
information coming out, could it have been made with the
help of extraterrestrial beings that may or may not still
be on or visiting our planet. Let me know in
