Is History a Lie?
Tartaria is believed by some to have spread across to globe and built many of the amazing buildings that exist today.
Some radical thinkers (architects and quantity surveyors) have taken a look at the logistics of constructing buildings 100s of years ago to see if it was even possible, and then take another look using modern technology. The builders 100s of years ago faced numerous problems, but the single most difficult was having enough people to carry out this task, especially in fledgling countries with limited education, training and income. Gravel or muddy roads, horse and carts sliding about losing wheels, even the suppliers, quarries, chemical companies, steel manufacturers… Was the infrastructure even able to deliver the materials let alone put them together to create some of the most beautiful structures on Earth? More akin to Rome or ancient Greece. These building still remain to this day.
Think about the railroads alone. On the face of it quite a simple idea, put two lines of steel across the world. But we know it was not that simple. It took a long time. It needed thousands of men, it needed explosives. Alfred Nobel made them safer but before that many died using them and health and safety must have been almost impossible. They had to clear land, In the UK to build the 2012 Olympic Stadium which is mostly air to years! In the USA they needed to dig and build tunnels, in the US it decimated wild animals for example Buffalo, the carnage from herds defied description: 4-5 million killed in three years alone to feed the thousand of men. They would need water, tents (they had to be made). There is a saying for every soldier you need 5 people behind them, food, health, shelter, water, and supplies (ammo) and all of this needs a country making it behind that, the supplies not only need to be available but delivered perilously across land where the risk of being attacked and robbed was rife. Of course as the railways were built the trains delivered the goods, but building huge complex railway track was a very simple thing to do compared to the building of these huge structures we are talking about. And they often got the railways wrong, railway bridges collapsed and tracks subsided and of course tunnels collapsed trapping people… and finally you had enemies that destroyed the tracks. It was a long, long and still long effort of trial and error.
However, no such luxury for the buildings we are talking about. They were perfect first time it seems?
Goods had to be delivered to these massive construction sites… Also land was needed and often owned by others, so had to be purchased and communities either moved or cut through! That’s not even easy today as people do not like change.
There seems to be an historical fudge, either these men could build the unthinkable in few numbers out of thin air in very short timescales, or the buildings were already there and adopted (like the Pyramids which seem to have been there before the Younger Dryas extinction event only saved by their mass) by the locals who found them.
Its ironic that we as a society do not have a problem adopting say Stonehenge (which to this day remains an anomaly for similar reasons) but when things are more advanced than our abilities we do not like it and even destroy it.
No matter what you believe this is a video using AI and images of the World’s Fair that does make me wonder… Was this already here and used as a base for the Fair then knocked down, or was it built in a few years by the finest masons and architects that ever lived? To me it almost looks as old as the Vatican and perhaps even built by the church, and maybe that’s another rabbit hole. 😉
I think the modern stuff like the Ferris wheel just looks shoehorned into the space rather than built for it. The dock is the same. Put something on it rather than it being built for something. Whilst it is clearly an advantage to be near the water for supplies. You then need huge number of ships to deliver the supplies. We are talking about Docks and cranes (and dockers) to match that of London, Liverpool or Glasgow. That would then have to be built then removed?
Over to you! 🙂
Have fun and happy days!
