I've always been super intrigued about ancient huge stone works. Puma Punku, Giza pyramids, Machu Picchu, and this one to name a few. Stories of buildings or walls appearing overnight, or tales of plants or potions that soften stone, or straight up gods using future tech. I love to read about them all. Some of those stones fit together so perfectly...Others are so large you can't help but wonder how...

Let's see, Egypt: check. Lebanon: check. Israel: nope.
If Israel is the land of "God's chosen people," why are there no megalithic structures there? What better representation of the Highest Power on Earth is there than that which can cut and move stones in a way no one can come close to matching today?

Ancient people did a lot of work with Sacred Geometry, using compasses and squares and etc to perform calculations that are still very difficult even using modern computers.
Computational mathematics has a hard time dealing with things like curvature.
The ancients used geometric drawings as ways of carrying out complicated calculations, but to a modern observer, it all just looks like a fancy way of putting a recurring patter on a T shirt.
We really don't know today what kinds of calculations they were capable of when they used it, and consequently we have no idea what technologies might have arisen from it. Whether they could use sonic resonance is ways we cannot, or possibly even tap into fundamental forces like gravity. We don't know. We're way behind them, because even our strongest computers can't solve curvature equations of any serious complexity. (Not because they aren't powerful, but due to their reliance on computational mathematics, and computational mathematics being the wrong tool for the job. )
Since gravity is "space time curvature" and the Einstein field equations are descriptions of that curvature in 4 dimensions, it's nigh impossible for a computer to solve them well enough to accurately describe a gravitational field of any meaningful complexity. (Not unless you want to wait 1000+ years for the computer to finish)

This old thread fully explains Baalbek, if anyone wants to just read it.
Just read through the thread and it doesn't 'fully explain' anything.
Are you a salesman?

Try Dead Men's Secrets by Jonathan Gray.
It will blow your mind.
