A small correction from Adam on the provenance of his vase. It was exported from Egypt in the 1930s. It came from the collection of Stanislav Kovar. He was a Czech diplomat, born in Prague in 1889. At that point, it was part of the Austro Hungarian empire. He brought vases out of Egypt in the 1930s. Czechoslovakia was formed in 1918, but the word Czech is older. from Google: The words "Czechian", "Czechish", "Czechic" and later "Czech" (using antiquated Czech spelling) have appeared in English-language texts since the 17th century. During the 19th-century national revival, the word "Czech" was also used to distinguish between the Czech- and German-speaking peoples living in the country.

Ben , I once was considered a Advanced R&D Technical engineer - I helped design and create processes for the Bunker Buster - both DU and other heavy metals. I setup and programmed CNC - NC - PLC -standard machines and robotics , since 83. You are on to something here , but the way you are explaining it , requires someone to have a machining background to understand just how difficult ( if not impossible ),this would be without a lathe or mill. You did not even show either of these machines and how they machine an object. So many ways you could bring this precision to everyone in a way that could not be misunderstood or denied. On these vases , only 2 measurements need to be pointed out in my humble opinion , the ID and OD total runout and what that actually means , Total wall thickness variation and what that means. Then demonstrate how it Cannot be done without turning the Vase on a lathe or mill, possible centerless grinder. Demonstrate how one has to chuck ( hold ), the piece and turn the OD and ID without un-chucking it, that's the receipts , the proof , the top and bottom surfaces have to be parallel if its cut while the initial chucking is done, a cut off tool will parallel the bottom, it cannot be done without turning and cutting while turning. the math and all the Brilliant talking points and verbiage , turns to word salad .If this were done , it would be clear from that point for the least technical of people and the expert just the same. This is something I would very much like to see done ( I would guess 99% of your viewers would as well ), take one vase , recreate it with a piece of aluminum or some piece of stock, wood would work ( it should start as a rough piece, square , out of round , rigid ), its the process that needs shown. Not the math or scans , for they will make no sense until one understands what it takes to create the object. Thanks for the video Sir

The main point in the vase analysis Ben gets across very well. There are people from all walks of life here, professional machinists or not, who express the exact same bewilderment of how these artifacts came to be, and how they could possibly made in the time periods framed, or with modern tools available. For a product with dimensional deviations that are only theoretical to most people. Using logic and discernment, these vases weren't made by people from this earth, or with any tools familiar to mankind then or now. I'm not a machinist, but a healthcare professional with hobby interests in archaeology, history, and semi-precise metal work. While my interest in the 'perfection' of such skills into a final product appealing to the naked eye, is a universal concept, their inherent beauty is recognized as much or more by the eye, then it is in a paper calculation.

I asked him if money was no issue how much would it cost me to pay him to make me one. He said that it would take the rest of his life to learn how to just be ok, not even close to the level of precision of the sloppiest example.

I am shaken to my core. This video changes the world. I'm not a machinist but I've been building and cutting with stone for 20 years. Stone tolerances in construction usually don't go past the 1/16" range because it's prohibitively difficult to get that precise with stone. Inclusions and different densities mean cutting and chiseling is always a bit of a guessing game. This is so far beyond what is possible with hand tools or even mechanical lathes it is astounding. Maintaining a 2/1000" variance in the thickness of the granite in an irregular shaped object is only possible today with computer control. This might be the most profound ancient discovery of the century. Bravo!

Mind-bending precision. You can even imagine the cutter head fluttering in the way the dials wiggle within their incredibly tight tolerances. They must have had giant, heavy machines. I wonder if they used a combination of stone and metal to create analog powered cutting tools, perhaps making the tool holders out of giant stones, as well as their entire base assembly. A hole would be drilled that could accept a spindle, and a piece of stone could be turned on a "rock solid" lathe. The tool could be guided with a 2-axis gliding mechanism using stone bearing spheres and a pantograph mechanism that could copy a pattern from a radius based on a set designed using a mathematical system based on pi and phi. This would require a rich heritage of mathematics, an understanding of metal alloys, advanced engineering capabilities, and a long and sustained period of peaceful settlement to develop the capabilities required for making these vases in such large quantities. I can imagine them washing up onto the shore in their millions after some massive flood, most in shards, but 10,000s intact, collected by the survivors who rebuilt from scratch. It's starting to look like a very likely scenario that archeologists and Egyptologists will not be able to wiggle their way out of any longer.

Heron of Alexandria built a small one as a novelty, but it may be no coincidence that he lived in a city that once had a library filled with ancient documents now lost to us.

Been following your site and others for many years. I began my carrer in 1966 as a machinist and progressed over the years to tool and die maker, tool designer, machine designer, structural designer. I worked on oil field machinery, machine design, aerospace, medical, the f-22 the space station you name it. Mostly involved in precision machining at extreme levels. I think most people cannot comprehend the precision you are measuring here. The concentricity of the inner and outer surfaces is an amazing feature. This would require either performing both operations in the same setup or precision setup requiring instruments such as dial indicators. Machining this material at these thicknesses cannot be done with hard tools like lathe bits. The force required is too high. This would require some sort of abrassive tool or some other process I cant imagine. Like with other stone work such as the big boxes, try to get someone today to make one of these with any tools or machine. I believe the civilization that created these things and the rest had a sort of religious interest in geometry. These things are all very similar meaning they had a representation of some basic truth to an entire culture. This likely involved the geometric ratios they present. Ither wise why do it repeatedly.

A very impressive resume. Thumbs up. I have been to Giza (3 months, 2 trips), long before I ever ran across Chris Dunn's work. I already worked in engineering, but did not appreciate all that I was seeing. Now I know more, and much of it is still way over my head. But your comments on the precision are understood. I did lots of projects with high-tolerances, but envy you the exposure to fighters and NASA work. These pieces - like much at megalithic sites - were clearly done by an earlier technical culture. Assertions of them being done by earlier iterations of our present wave of development (stone age or savages) are insults to humanity and the real world. Egyptologists and arkies live in a projected fantasy world that has almost no connection to capable humans of the past. Archaeology is the science that isn't a science; they still think like they did 250 years ago. They are stuck in their silliness.

I think the encoded geometry is also a message. It's written in a universal mathematical language, as opposed to a base system. The great megalithic sites were intentionally designed to be extremely resistant to seismic forces, so they would last far into the future, as a test for future civilizations to decipher and replicate the mathematics and engineering needed to build them. No matter how far humanity descends from famine, war, disease, and how many times we have to start over, the Pyramids will still stand as a reminder of our potential. These vases must be similar. They were so important to the early Egyptians, they handed them down for nearly 1000 years until most of them were stored away in a stash at Saqqara.

Did the measurement team calculate the volume of the interior of these precision vessels? It would be interesting to see if the volume was a relevant factor in their design, given that today we generally manufacture vessels to contain a particular volume of something, I.e a liquid. If that is the case, then one could draw conclusions on the purpose of the vessels. Anything made to that level of precision and expense would have to be made with a purpose in mind.

In addition, personally I wouldn't refer to these magnificent feats of engineering as 'vases'. Whatever they were used for, it wasn't for flower arrangements. They were made precisely to carry something important. I say 'carry' as those lugs were clearly part of the design so that something (rope, leather?) could be fitted to enable these vessels to be carried, transported, hung or stored in great numbers. The mind boggles when one is confronted with the mathematics and engineering aspects of these vessels. They were designed and manufactured with the utmost precision. Raw materials were sought, surveyed, mined and transported..oh and no doubt traded. The machinery was also designed and manufactured, which itself would have required precision tools to make the machines. Whoever accomplished all these factors was educated, trained and mentored. As were the teachers. This would require standards, assessments, administration etc. This would require a society as advanced, if not more, than our own.

"One can only conlude, that for whoever created these pieces such precision was easily obtainable." This is a quite astute and important observation. We might be able to duplicate one of these artifacts today, maybe, but at prohibitive expense. Over 40,000 or these (unknown of course how many exhibit this level of precision, or how many thousands more equal to these remain buried) have been found, so it wasn't prohibitively expensive or difficult at the time. One could also say that the methods used to create the ancient megalithic structures and statues were easy as well, not only regarding precision but dealing their incredible size. For whoever or whatever made all of these things before recorded history, the process must have been relatively easy and likely rapid as opposed to centuries of handwork by thousands of human hands. "They" did it that way because they had the means to do so as easily as we would make an automotive wheel bearing or assemble a metal building. Who they were, wouldn't we all love to know?

The primary reason we use granite for surface plates is one if availability. Before WWll the primary material used for surface plates was fine grained cast iron. The production process was long and in the end labor intensive. The castings needed to be completely stress relieved. Initial machining performed and then hand scrapped using master plates and precision inspection tools meant for the work. Some of which is optical in nature. With the rapid expansion of defense contractors for the war effort a cheaper and faster means was needed. The answers were found in granite and glass. But not all granite is suitable. Plus these surface plates needed to be properly supported when in use or they will sag in the middle or at the perimeter.

we humans have pretty well designed measuring tools built in by nature for flatness and straightness (we are predators and need a perception of depth and our surrounding to get the hunt done well otherwise we would not be around to begin with), but where we can not handle things is when it becomes round. And this is the case with these objects, you can not eyeball roundness/circularity on a curved surface.

"...the best machinists/toolmakers could eyeball making a part to 0.020" with modern tools." We used to work to at least 0.010" (eyeball) when doing lathe work to loose tolerances, using a good quality steel rule and calipers, but that was just flat, straight diameters, and with steel. When you consider curves, and a material that has varying areas of hardness, it's difficult to know where to start!

Yeah we just haven't found any direct evidence of their advanced technology. I'm guessing they kept their technology and techniques an extreme secret and we genuinely lost them for one reason or another. Also, the technology and techniques might have been more just raw brilliance rather than very complex. Basically just a set of tools and techniques that were only known to a very small set of specialists that were never officially recorded, or perhaps if they were recorded they were destroyed.

Hate to break it to ya, but you could make one of those vases in the 19th century using a follower. Still not the "stone age" BS thrown around by idiot "historians" but... You would think one of those machinist friends of his would know what that is... but apparently they are ignorant of old school machining devices. Sure you would go through a LOT of square end mills and the polishing would be the hard part, but it can be done. In 1960's we had hydraulic followers able to match to less than half a thousandth of an inch using ball end mills. So, yes, all of these technically could be fakes. Sorry, but true. His "technical" group is historically ignorant of basic machinist technology available to previous generations. Machinists before CNC for Very hard 3D shapes before age of CNC would make a 3D mold out of clay, plaster of paris, check it for tolerances, fill it to tolerance, machine it, check tolerances, polish it down, etc and then use a follower in the hard final material. At minimum a society able to machine to late 19th/earth 20th century standards. BY mid 20th century BEFORE CNC we can easily make these vases using ball end mills and followers.

Thanks to all that worked on this project which is a very worth while endever. Keep this going please. It is truly mind blowing at so many levels. It also raises more questions than answers. It is not just that these vases were made to such high tolerances, its what went into their design process. It shows a very high level of mathematical understanding, geometry and ability to just design a vase. The machining involved is so sophisticated especially when working with the materials used all of which differ greatly in composition. The tooling for making such vases must have been even more sophisticated with the highest of precision and complexity. I can only imagine what else was made in say metal that would have oxidised to nothing after such a large time frame of 6,7 or 10 thousand years plus. Perhaps they knew these stone vases would leave a legacy of advanced capability in a hope that it could be continued for generations.

Internal axial grooves also seem intentional but somewhat clumsy. It reminds me the kind of grooves used to tune bells. They are machined on the inside of bells for sake of outer aesthetics. The resonant frequency of these vessels and their bell behavior may also be of interest. Keep throwing light to these topics please!

I particularly notice that none of the skeptics and deniers have ventured into this forest of comments by experienced machinists and precision manufacturers to challenge the results of the survey on any factual grounds. On their skeptical videos I see a lot of disengenuous cherry picking criticism that ignores the implications of the documented precision, questions provenance without taking into account the expense and effort needed to produce the same artifact now (they also don't address the number of precise vases in existence, but focus on a single example) and often ignore the evidence that the most precise examples are pre-dynastic, of extreme antiquity, while asking why the dynastic Egyptians did not leave records of the work.

As a totally seperate confirmation, which might be worth noting in a future video, is that the excavation of, I think three, spaces into solid rock at Barabar have a tolerance on walls of 4 micrometers. This having been achieved with portable equipment that had to fit through the only opening, then set up and used. BAM have a documentary on this being released this December 14th 2023. They may also be interested in your work, if they do not already know of it.
