The mystery of Ancient Egyptian stone cutting on Old Kingdom sites, into incredibly hard stone like basalt, and granite - a full documentary length deep dive into the evidence for ancient advanced technology.

Only on Old Kingdom sites do we find the presence of large basalt pavements - made up of remarkably flat and machined blocks. On and around these pavements, as well as inside the pyramids, we can find evidence for advanced methods of stone cutting, including powered circular saws. Far beyond the capability of the Dynastic Ancient Egyptians - how were these cuts made? Were they created by the dynastic civilization? Or is it possible these structures and objects were inherited?

We also investigate the evidence for a strange, functional feature of these Old Kingdom sites - the installation of channeled 'u-shaped' blocks, beneath the stone of pavements and causeways. What was the function of these mysterious blocks?
