远古外星人（2009）

that causes these walls to collapse?
耶利哥城的故事
Narrator: Is it possible that the story of jericho
是否可能是历史记载的几千年前就被使用的声学技术?
is a historical account of acoustic technology being used thousands of years ago?
古代宇航员理论家说 是的
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes
并指出其他描述约柜力量的故事
and point to other stories that describe the power of the ark of the covenant.
让我一直着迷的是 我们有关于这些神奇咒语的故事
What I have always found fascinating is that we have stories of these magical incantations.
-对 -但是,你知道
-Right. -But, you know,
用语♥音♥指令操作东西
operating something with voice commands,
如果你不知道具体原理 那它就是一种神奇的咒语
if you don't know what that is, that's a magical incantation.
这很有趣 因为当你看约柜的时候…
This is the interesting thing, because when you look at the ark of the covenant...
…你看看大祭司
...You look at the high priest.
当然 大祭司会戴着审判的胸牌对神说话
The high priest, of course, would speak to god wearing the breastplate of judgement
胸牌上有12块石头
that had the 12 stones on it.
大祭司会靠近约柜
The high priest would approach the ark of the covenant,
他会开始背诵某些音调和声音
and he would start to recite certain tones, sounds.
这些都是非常深沉的 有音调的 喉咙哼出的圣歌♥
These were very deep, tonal, throat-type chants.
据说这些音调会导致石头的振动
The tones were said to then cause the stones to vibrate,
石头会发出光
and they would send out lights,
然后方舟就会对这个做出反应
and then the ark somehow would react to this.
这里有一些活性能量
There's some active energy there,
我们称其为上帝的荣耀或“卡佛德”的荣耀
which we call the glory, or" kavod," of god.
它不是上帝 但它是一个真实的能量场 如果你在那里…
It's not god, but it's some actual energy field that if you would be in the presence...
-记住 你不能走进能量场的面前 -或者说是一台机器前面
-Remember, you couldn't go into the presence. -Or a machine.
-对的 -如果你走得太近 你就会死
-That's right. -Something was there that if you went too close, you died.
我来告诉你这是什么感觉
I'll tell you exactly what that sounds to me like.
这个胸甲有光学功能
This breastplate has optical
上面有声光收发器
and/or acousto-optical transceivers on it.
他们在握手 这是老式的音响电♥话♥调制解调器会做的事情
And they're hand-shaking, which is what the old-school acoustic phone modems would do
当你打电♥话♥ 或者传真机打入的时候
when you would call up-- or the fax machine calls up--
这时可以连接到另一边
to connect to the other side.
亨利:我们在这里看到的是他们会用声音连接天堂和地球
Henry: What we're seeing here is that they would use sound to link heaven and earth.
(深唱)
(deep chanting)
声音可以促进人与神之间的交流
narrator: The idea that sound can facilitate communication between man and divine beings--
就像印度人使用奥姆一样 这是世界各地宗教传统的共同主题
like the hindu use of aum-- is a common theme in religious traditions throughout the world.
所有的宗教都使用音乐
All religions really use music,
你可以在礼拜仪式中看到这一点
and you see that in worship services.
(唱)
(chanting)
所以犹太传统中会有赞美诗唱班
so the cantor with the psalms in the jewish tradition...
(唱诗班唱赞美诗)
(choir singing a hymn)
…基♥督♥教传统中有唱诗班
...Choir in christian traditions.
即使在没有正式音乐的伊♥斯♥兰♥传统中
Even in the islamic tradition, where there's no formal music,
也有一首背诵《古♥兰♥经♥》的旋律
there's a-a melody to the recitation of the koran.
(用旋律唱)
(melodic chanting)
每一种文化都认为这种音乐将我们与神联♥系♥在一起
every culture has the idea that this music connects us with the divine.
对于很多宗教活动来说
Narrator: For many religious practices,
和音乐传统一样重要的是举♥行♥仪式的地点
just as important as musical traditions are the locations in which the rituals are performed.
汤普森:沙特尔大教堂的唱诗班
Thompson: A choir singing in chartres cathedral
因为其建筑空间的设计而变得非常神奇
is magical because of the architectural space.
所以这些不同文化中的建筑空间
And so these architectural spaces in all these various cultures,
来自远东的，或者中东的
from these kind of secret monasteries in the far east
秘密修道院
and in the middle east,
以其建筑设计空间的神圣性而闻名
were famous for having architectural designed spaces that call up the sacred.
(教堂会众歌♥唱)
(congregation chanting)
有趣的是 越来越多的考古学家相信
narrator: Interestingly, a growing number of archaeologists believe
一些世界上最古老的建筑是专门设计来强调声学特性的
some of the world's oldest structures were specifically designed to accentuate acoustic properties.
和你们一样 我一直在关注最新的考古发展和研究
Like all of you, I'm always keeping up on the latest archaeological developments and research,
我认为世界各地的纪念碑都具有声学特性 这真的很吸引人
and I think it's really fascinating that monuments worldwide have acoustic properties.
他们发现
What they're finding is that
这些房♥间的设计
these were chambers that were designed
能让你有声觉体验
where you would have this acoustic experience that you heard,
同时你也可以在你的骨头里 你的组织里感觉到
but you also felt it in your bones, in your tissue.
-他们管这叫考古声学 -嗯
-Yeah, they call this archaeoacoustics. -Mm-hmm.
考古声学是考古学的一个跨学科领域
Narrator: Archaeoacoustics is an interdisciplinary field of archaeology dedicated to examining
致力于研究声音和声学是如何在古代世界被人们利用的
how sound and acoustics were utilized in the ancient world.
菲利西亚·比尔德斯利:这是一个相对较新的领域
Felicia beardsley: It's a relatively new field,
考古声学研究着眼于古代遗址
and archaeoacoustics is looking at the sound quality of ancient sites,
历史遗址和考古遗址的的音质
historical sites, archaeological sites
在这些地方音乐可能发挥了重要作用
where we see music probably played a role.
巨石阵就是其中之一
Stonehenge is one of those.
你站在巨石阵中♥央♥
Where you stand in the middle of stonehenge,
你会创造出音乐的爆♥炸♥声
you would create the sound blast of music,
无论你使用什么工具
whatever implements were used,
因为我们也不确定 声音会被石头弹开
'cause we're not really sure, and it would bounce off the stones
形成这种回声室
and create this sort of echo chamber.
巨石阵用作声音圣殿
Stonehenge functioned as a sonic temple.
我的意思是……
By this, what I mean is that...
独特的纪念碑的中心
Individuals, the center of the monument,
会产生音乐
would create musical sounds,
尤其是在低频率的情况下
particularly of a low frequency,
这些能量实际上被储存在石头里 可能是这样
that would be contained actually inside the stones and build up an energy, if you like,
为何目的 我们现在只能猜测
for a purpose which we can only guess at right now.
在世界各地 考古学家们
Narrator: All around the world, archaeologists
已经发现了许多根据声学原理设计的古代遗址
have identified numerous ancient sites that were designed according to acoustic principles,
比如土耳其的哥贝克力巨石阵
such as gobekli tepe in turkey,
马耳他的地下墓室和爱尔兰的纽格兰奇通道墓穴
the hypogeum in malta and the newgrange passage tomb in ireland.
纽格兰奇有很强的声学特性
Newgrange has very strong acoustic properties.
他们发现 声波在腔室中反弹的方式
What they found is, is that the way the sound waves bounce around the chamber,
产生了所谓的驻波
they create what's called standing waves.
它们会增加强度和声音
And they increase in intensity and sound.
根据一些研究者的说法
Narrator: According to some researchers,
在纽格兰奇内发现的奇特雕刻提供了关键证据
curious carvings found inside newgrange provide key evidence documenting
证明该结构是故意设计成具有复杂声学特性的
that the structure was purposely designed to have elaborate acoustic properties.
纽曼:看起来这些驻波是在腔室中记录下来的
Newman: And it seems that these standing waves were recorded actually within the chamber itself,
到处都能看到锯齿形的雕刻
where you could see these zigzags carved all over the place,
这表明他们不仅了解声学而且还记录了腔室内的感受
suggesting that they not only understood acoustics but they were recording the experience within the chambers.
另一件真正有趣的事情是 当他们调查枕梁屋顶时
The other thing of-of real interest is the fact that when they investigated the corbeled roof,
就像许多巨型石头绕着一个螺旋旋转
which is like multiple mega-size stones almost going around a spiral,
他们发现这些都是经过调整的
they found that these had been adjusted.
他们发现这样做原因是
And they found the reason for that was because
他们正在调整音室的声音
they were tuning the chamber acoustically.
由不同文明所设计的
Narrator: Is it merely coincidence
世界各地的不同古代建筑
that ancient structures all over the world
似乎都展示了相似声学特性 这仅仅是巧合吗?
appear to have been designed by different civilizations that demonstrate such similar acoustic properties?
或者他们有共同的目的?
Or might they share a very common purpose?
如果有 为什么?
And if so, why?
我的意思是 这些古老遗址里的振动和声学的概念是很吸引人的
I mean, it's fascinating the whole idea of these vibrations and acoustics within these ancient sites
而且它们是故意以这种方式创造的
and that they were purposely created that way.
亨利:是的 他们是这么认为的
Henry: Yeah, they were set up for,
这是一种非凡的人类体验
uh, an extraordinary human experience
它可能会让你体验到另一个世界的存在
that potentially then this can enable an experience with an otherworldly being,
甚至是…像神一样的存在
even a... Like a godlike being.
他们在暗示这是一个
They were signifying it was a place,
通过举♥行♥仪式 吟诵 就能开启精神之门的地方
that they were opening up a spiritual portal by doing ceremony, chanting--
也许是敲鼓什么的 以此开启祖先神或老天爷的大门
you know, maybe beating drums or something-- to their ancestor gods or to their sky gods.
我们在这里看到的是 人类和神的集♥会♥场所
What we're seeing here is that these were meeting grounds of humans and the gods.
这些谐振腔室的有趣之处在于
The interesting thing about these resonance chambers--
我们在这些低频中发现了一件事
one thing we have discovered at these low frequencies--
实际上你可以…
you actually can be in a...
处于恍惚的状态
In sort of a trancelike state from it.
扎多克：显然 这是一种心理或精神上的影响
Tzadok: Apparently, there is a psychological or spiritual effect.
这在萨满教的实践中经常被使用
This was used with shamanistic practices.
古代的宗教领袖通常被称为萨满
Narrator: Ancient religious leaders, commonly known as shamans,
被视为人类与更高境界之间的纽带
were seen as links between humans and a higher realm.
对于萨满来说 声音不仅仅是用来与神建立精神上的联♥系♥
For the shamans, sound was not used merely to make a spiritual connection with the divine
而且可以与超自然生物互动
but to actually interact with otherworldly beings.
比尔兹利:“萨满”这个词来自西伯利亚的宗教活动
Beardsley: The term "shaman" comes from siberian religious practices,
这意味着一个人可以看到周围世界的底层结构
and it means somebody who can see the underlying fabric of the world around them.
他们是这个世界和另一个世界的谈判者
These are the negotiators between this world and the other world.
他们可以进入另一个世界 与另一个世界的力量谈判
They could step into the other world to negotiate with otherworldly forces.
柯林斯:与众不同的人、萨满
Collins: Individuals, shamans,
当他们吟诵 当他们歌♥唱
