Impossible Precision: A Scientific Study of Ancient Egyptian Stone Vessels | #45 Dr. Max Fomitchev-Zamilov

And this is the most precise vase in your collection. The one with 12 micron precision or better.

Right. Even the vases that were polished on the inside, under sufficient magnification, you could still see similar marks that were not completely polished away. Right. If I was in academia, or if someone was in academia, you could make a nice paper, like a separate study. You just take pictures on the inside of these vases, and you take pictures on the inside of vases that were turned on a lathe.

You compare them, and you say, yeah, this is... consistent with turning on a lathe, and you can take pictures of vases that were, you know, handmade, you know, like Olga's vase or maybe some other vases, and you can say, yeah, this is not consistent with that. And then that, how you can also classify some of this and say, some were turned and some weren't.

And now that I'm looking at it, actually it's possible, given the CAT scan that you made, it's actually possible to unroll the inner surface into a sheet and extract the grooves. Oh, we got to do that. And see how... It will take in a little bit of coding, but it's possible to do, because the information is there. You just need to unroll the surface. And then you'll have a map and see how this...

You'll be able to see if there is like a single groove, for example. Is there a single uninterrupted groove that's kind of like on a record player?

Yeah, you're right. So superficially it's consistent with manual control of the tool.
