This is amazing, omg 😲 why didn't we see this before! Egyptians had electricity and only this guy found it...

/s (in case...)

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 18 points 3 months ago

Have you not seen those big teslacoil defence tower–monolith things? How did you think those were powered?

[-] Kerb@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

those where obviously fueled with the refined tiberium they imported from Agarttha

[-] Crazyslinkz@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

Sacrifices? God's will? Oh no, sorry aliens... it was aliens πŸ‘½

I'm no Egyptologist, but I think I saw on the interwebs someone had proof it was aliens, they just can't share the proof right now...

/s (again)

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Yes, definitely aliens, because no way did those Brown people ever come up with how to build such complex structures. Nope. Definitely aliens. White aliens at that. Probably from the Anglo Saxon galaxy.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

Alien sacrifices for favourable gods will, yes, that is correct.
And yes, it was (mostly) aliens bcs if higher copper concentration in their blood.

How could anyone believe Egyptians had electricity by wire, that doesn't make any sense.

[-] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

They only built the pyramids because a voice shouted: "Silos needed".

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

Makes sense, can't have minerals from Agarttha piling up out in the open.

[-] tiredofsametab@kbin.run 37 points 3 months ago

Ah yes, things that look the same must be the same. Much science.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 23 points 3 months ago

OK, that's not as nuts as some of these. So what are the artifacts?

[-] TuEstUnePommeDeTerre@midwest.social 51 points 3 months ago

They're made out of wood and the wires are museum mounts.
Per this site, they're furniture decorations.

Sorry... you think believing the Ancient Egyptians had electricity because those things look kind of like electrical insulators isn't nuts? Because I have news for you- two things can look alike and be totally different things.

This, for example, is not a petrified screw. It's a crinoid. A once-living sea creature.

I don't know what those Egyptian things are, but it is definitely nuts to assume they're electrical insulators just because they resemble them.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 33 points 3 months ago

It's nuts that looks like a bolt.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago

It's the "stem" of an ancient sea creature (an animal, not a plant) from about 400 million years ago that looked something like this:

This is sea lily, one of its modern descendants:

[-] Uli@sopuli.xyz 25 points 3 months ago

Ah, so that's where screws come from. TIL!

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 months ago

Don't worry, I got your joke!

[-] Phegan@lemmy.world 19 points 3 months ago

In the (paraphrased) words of Milo Rossi, conspiracy theories use "looks like" a lot

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Milo is a hero of mine.

[-] niktemadur@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago

The thing about any crackpot argument for "ancient electricity" that just dawned on me, is that they call it The Bronze Age for a reason, the ancients insisted on the versatility of their metal (bronze = copper + tin) over its' conductivity (pure copper).

There was a more ancient Copper Age, but it was brief, bronze was the definition of a technological leap forward.

[-] notthebees@reddthat.com 16 points 3 months ago

If you looked up ribbed dildo, you'd find some similar looking stuff to those. So idk what you're seeing.

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 16 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I wonder what the ancient Egyptians named their electrical companies. πŸ€” I think Nile Current and Pyramid Power Co. sound pretty good

Yes. Ice cream and styrofoam can also both look like white balls, but I ain't eating the styrofoam or packing fragiles with scoops of vanilla

[-] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 10 points 3 months ago

This kind of apophenia is easily dispelled by looking at the objects in question more closely. Which is impossible to do with single images

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

This guy is probably close to discovering that the sphinx was part of a gate that used electricity to "close" instead of doors. That's how advanced Egypt was. Must be because they were trade partners with Atlantis or something.

[-] Cort@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

What the fuck are you talking about, Atlanta isn't real. It was clearly aliens

[-] Hugh_Jeggs@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Ever noticed how there's two Georgias

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

The other thing on the right image is a big container full of oil - will you now claim ancient civilisations had those too?!?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago
[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 7 points 3 months ago

From that Popeye chick?
Idk, I don't think it's the same period.

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 3 months ago

See, all these people who wonder how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids don't realize that they were hauling those stones in Cybertrucks!

[-] uebquauntbez@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Now I see it too! The smiley next to this post has picked something out of his nose and asking himself whereto put it or just eat it.
