<t>i also believe that they had the block and tackle, among many other technologies that have long since been lost and then rediscovered. i dont believe that they would have powered a helicopter in the same way as we do today, it would be very arrogant to assume that our way is the only way. if and ...

have you thought about how you will cut the cake with the present inside.

<t>jim allen has very convincing evidence that south america is the lost continent of atlantis. a story told by the egyptians. how did they know about south america. could it be because thay went there? they had seafaring ships.<br/>

just take the first line of the second quote and replace maya with ancient egyptians. it fits completely.

ancient egyptian refugees mixing with the local tribes would see a merging between the belief systems. the result being pyramid alters used for human sacrifices

<t>the ancient egyptians if they did settle in the area would not have had the same raw materials that they had in egypt. they would have had to adapt their designs according to the materials that they had. for example when the USA broke free from the UK, the people were at the same level of ...

all im saying is that they might have had flying devices, i didnt say they couldnt build the pyramids without them. the small models are aerodynamically sound and would fly if build to full scale. and u dont need an engine to fly, they could have used them as gliders.

did u lift it as high as the top section of the pyramid of giza on your own without any lifting equipment. if so i would like to know the technique and it might help the experts figure out how the egyptians did it

so u do agree that its not a coincidence.

<t>yes the building techniqes used to create cathedrals is very different to the way buildings are built today, but we know how they did it. it is recorded. the ancient egyptians seemed to record a lot of stuff in their carvings. why is it that there is no evidence of the techniques used to hoist ...

and its also a coincidence that both cultures made models of modern aerodynamically correct aircraft?

<t>i would say that it is entirely possible that the egyptians relocated to south america. it has been proven that they had sea faring ships capable of making the journey. the south american cultures appear after the fall of the ancient egyptian reign. settling in different parts of south america ...

both cultures built pyramid structures that have lasted for thousands of years. and both were sun worshippers. both cultures mummified their dead as well. is it all just coincidence?

there are many simarlarities between the ancient south american civilisations and the ancient egyptians. perhaps they flew over from peru and settled on the nile :wah:

<t>if it was just one hieroglyph looking like a modern craft i might be convinced that it was a coincidence, but there are four on the same piece of stone. just because there is no direct proof that they had helicopters doesnt mean that they didnt have them. having aircraft would have made the ...

<t>the fact that those artifacts are aerodynamically correct would suggest that they did have the technology to fly. the egyptians used to make models of their tecnologies and so it seems more likely than not that they made a full scale version. perhaps only used as a glider pulled by horses to lift ...
