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

But also what stains credulity is Winter Palace and the other palaces there, the first floor is buried. So St. Petersburg is built on the swamp. So why would you bury the first floor along with all of the ornaments there and then make a makeshift entry between the first and second floors? That makes no sense, yeah. So you cannot even see the first floor.

You can see just the little circles of what's left of it. But if you excavate, you see the columns going down. So the entire first floor is buried. Yeah, you just see little tiny semicircles. It doesn't make any sense. And there are a lot of towns like that in Russia where the first floor is underground entirely, like all over the place. So, you know, what happened that we're not told?

Yeah, stone buildings, yes. So, you know, it's consistent with Dulaj in recent time, but it's not mentioned like in any book. What happened that so much mud was deposited so quickly to where everybody had to dig inside? But it gets even more interesting than that. And if you go towards Siberia, you find mega earthworks, all sorts of earthen walls and dikes.

And in Siberia itself, you know, the taiga, the woods, it's crisscrossed in patches that are bold, devoid of forest, but it's squares. It's even squares as if, you know, somebody just lined through the woods. And its step is about a mile. It's not exactly a mile, but, you know, it's close. And somehow woods don't grow there.

So there's something down to the ground to where, you know, this grid remains. So it's unclear who's done it, why such an effort, you know, how it's possible. And it just, you know, keeps going. And it's like right in your face. And people now are researching it and asking questions.

And I'm glad that this is happening because, you know, there is just so much more out there that doesn't fit the narrative. But we don't know what it is. What are we to research if not that? Shouldn't science research what is really interesting, what is really exciting, what everybody wants to know answers for?

And that's one of those things that my father-in-law taught me when I was defending my dissertation. He said, dissertation needs to be boring. People must be asleep when you read it, because if they're excited and they wake up, you're not going to get your PhD. And I didn't believe him, but I followed his advice.

But when I moved to America and I considered pursuing a scientific career, of course I wanted to work on exciting stuff, so writing exciting papers. And I learned very quickly you cannot get those published, because my father-in-law was right. Science needs to be boring. But, you know, who needs boring science? You know, what public good is in boring stuff? So we need exciting stuff.
