The archaeologists excavated the white stone and reconstructed the L external wall during the 1960’s and 1970’s and brought it back to how it originally was. Inside there was no reconstruction.

This was hundreds of thousands of years ago. The brick-making process was taught to them by the descendants of the original revelators of God to mankind, 500,000 years ago, in Mesopotamia. Their mission was to civilize mankind, but largely failed.

Carbon dating is totally inaccurate for determining the age of a building. Or for that matter, much of anything else, unless the item in question was once alive. All it tells you is the age of the material that was used in the construction of the item in question. Nothing else. So if they carbon dated the stones used in the building, then they figured out how old the stones were. That doesn’t make the building that old. Stones that may be millions of years old could be used to build a building that’s FAR, FAR newer (obviously, as there weren’t any buildings, or people for that matter, around a million years ago).

As fun as it can be (for some people) to go through lists of things and/or items that concern history, I like those lists more when they come with at least a decent amount of factual basis. Naturally tolerant I'd let a few mishaps slide, but when dealing with the sun temple in Garni I finally felt I had no recourse but to correct you. The temple was dedicated to Mihr, an (surprise...) Armenian sun deity and not Helios. Which incidently is not a Roman sun deity, that more likely being Sol (Invictus), but a greek sun deity. That said, I still enjoyed it, even if it was just to see what such a list could deliver if there's plenty of room for improvement.

This pompous upload - by Top Fives - is beyond insane - his unsubstantiated timeline claims are exposed as preposterous nonsense by the conspicuous evidence - but you'd have to actually care about the truth in order to do the research - instead of just being a mindless sock puppet for some idiot.

Great point…one of the problems with history, amongst many, is that , more times than not, is that it was written by the conquerors/rulers/vassals ; if the material is from “written” works then you have the problem of the “unreliable narrator”. I still think that there might be one or two more “Troys” out the just waiting for a ”H. Schliemann” to come along.

​@@doclewis8927 Since the "scientific" timeline is "theoretical", since their geological and historical timelines are contradicted by thousands of independent sources, documented in dozens of languages from all across our Earth while the fake biblical timeline of nearly 6,000 years is also contradicted by thousands of independent sources from all across our Earth, if you want to be intelligent and knowledgeable, review the voluminous evidence before taking a stand on how old time is - here on this Earth. You're free to believe what you want but since the 85 to 115 IQ's of geologists are uploaded online - by Psychologists - since the vast majority of geologists have the intellectual equivalent of smart grade school children ... Since the geologists' C average from low level institutions - with minimal entrance requirements - are also conspicuous, we know most of them barely squeaked by in their Chemistry, Biology and Calculus classes ... to believe in the timeline from the "scientific community" is not recommended. If you're unaware of these conspicuous facts, please go to your local college where you can take their academic placement test - and then listen carefully as your adolescent scores in "Comprehension" are explained to you. Since you've never cared about the truth to compile thousands of independent sources - in dozens of languages from all across our Earth - you're unaware that the true timeline for our Earth is documented, since you don't know the true timeline for humankind is also documented while you assume you do know, your self-aggrandizing delusional detachment from reality is exposed as a fraud - similar to this youtube uploader. If you should ever grow a conscience, you will look at the evidence instead of being a mindless sock puppet for your evil overlords that programmed and indoctrinated you to be insanely pompous.

I'm with you. Maybe you remember the name of an ancient monolithic palace built atop a very high mountain in India somewhere (I think). It was featured on an Ancient Aliens episode focusing on monolithic sites too insane to comprehend, and I'd love to find online images. I'm a huge fan of all things ancient and antiquity. Netflix is often worthless except for sometimes unusual docs; Graham Hancock's "Ancient Apocalypse" is quite detailed, with places I'd never seen before. (I don't claim to know them all but love them all.) Tks.

Nice video but rather superficial and the title is highly misleading. Only two of these buildings, Göbekli Tepe and the Tower of Jericho, are among the 15 oldest in the world. The actual list of 15 oldest (known) buildings in the world are, according to wikipedia: 1. Göbekli Tepe (Turkey, 10 000-7 000 BC) 2. Tower of Jericho (Palestine, 7 500 BC) 3. Çatalhöyük (Turkey, 7 500-5 700 BC) 4. Mehrgarh (Pakistan, 7 000 BC) 5. Solnitsata (Bulgaria, 5 500 BC) 6. Durankulak (Bulgaria, 5 500-4 100 BC) tied 7. Barnenez (France, 4 800 BC) tied 7. Tumulus of Bougon (France, 4 800 BC) 9. Saint-Michel tumulus (France, 4 500 BC) 10. Anu ziggurat of Uruk (Iraq, 4 000-3 800 BC) 11. Monte d'Accoddi (Italy, 4 000-3 650 BC) 12.

@Stacey Shomaker Layer I Layer I is the uppermost part of the hill. It is the shallowest but accounts for the longest stretch of time. It consists of loose sediments caused by erosion and the virtually-uninterrupted use of the hill for agricultural purposes since it ceased to operate as a ceremonial center. Around the beginning of the 8th millennium BCE, Göbekli Tepe lost its importance. The advent of agriculture and animal husbandry brought new realities to human life in the area, and the "Stone-age zoo" (Schmidt's phrase applied particularly to Layer III, Enclosure D. Agriculture.

@@roystonmason9125 It's an archaeological site somewhere in Israel. It belongs to the Kebaran culture (23,000 - 15,000 BC) which were the first to preferentially collect wild plants and process them. They precede the more famous Natufians, which were the first to systematically collect wild cereals and build permanent settlements. At the beginning of the Younger Dryas, Natufians even started intervening in the growth of cereals to save them from the colder climate, which is basically the first attempt at agriculture. almost 14 millennia ago. They were insanely advanced for their time.

Here's my answer to your riddle: Man. When a man or a woman is a baby, they crawl around of all fours. When they are old enough, they switch to two legs, and then, when they are too old to have enough strength & balance to walk on two legs, they use a cane, i.e., three legs. Of course, it is necessary to think of morning, noon, and night as infancy, adulthood, and old age, but it's a riddle so metaphors are to be expected.
