Oh shoot, I forgot about this thread!!
I've learned so much more about these vases.
Bottom line: These things are more advanced than we can even comprehend. Amazing craftsmanship but even more amazing geometry.
Seriously guys, this really is the smoking gun for previous advanced civilization.

Pmax, please elaborate. No idea what you're implying.

Interesting video. A little too complex, maybe.

It's probably not the smoking gun. It's something we don't understand.

(We find the vases but we can't find a ray gun from this advanced civilization(s)?)

On a side note the granite wall thickness variations were five thousandths of an inch on that numbers table. Those variations could have been achieved with hand work and a lot of time. Maybe some rudimentary lathe type machines similar to a potting wheel but I don't think you could cut it. You would have to rub it.

We conveniently forget that although technology has advanced over the centuries, intelligence has not. Keeping track of celestial objects in a time of little artificial light is no more advanced than knowing the way to work these days.
