远古外星人（2009）

无机材料和有机材料变成了煤
It's where you have inorganic material and organic material changing into coal.
这是不可能在一百年之内发生的事情
This is something that just simply can't happen in the span of, say, a hundred years.
就像大多数人说的那样 “哦 这不过是”一个19世纪中期的淘金者留下的一把锤子
Like most people saying, "Oh, this is nothing more "than a hammer that was left behind by a would‐be prospector from the mid‐1800s."
除了煤化作用
NARRATOR: In addition to coalification,
铁锤柄有石化的迹象
the handle of the hammer shows signs of petrification.
有机木材被矿物晶体取代的过程需要数百万年
This process of the organic wood being replaced by mineral crystals takes millions of years.
试验结果表明 锤头铁含量为96.6% 氯含量为2.6% 硫含量不足1%
Test results concluded that the material on the hammerhead consisted of 96.6% iron, 2.6% chlorine and less than one percent sulfur.
令人难以置信的是 这种材料不含碳 表明了是现代制♥造♥业
Incredibly, this material contained no carbon to indicate modern manufacturing.
当我们制♥造♥工具用的钢材时
JEFF WILLIAMS: When we were making steel for tools,
这个过程需要使用高炉来完全去除其中的碳
part of the process is to use a blast furnace to remove carbon out of it completely,
但总会还剩下0.2%到2%的碳
but we always have about point two to two percent left over.
我们的钢铁上总是有碳标记
There's always a carbon signature on our steel,
但是在这种特殊的物质中没有发现任何碳
but there wasn't any carbon whatsoever that was found in this particular material.
这个物体可能有1.4亿年的历史
TSOUKALOS: This object may be as old as 140 million years.
显然 这是一个疯狂的命题 如果你认为现代♥考♥古学表明我们只存在了大约1万年
And obviously, that's a crazy proposition if you think that modern‐day archeology suggests that we've only been around for about 10,000 years,
你知道 这一万年里 我们才用双手开始创造东西
you know, creating stuff with our own hands.
所以 这属于异域文物范畴
So, this falls into the category of out of place artifacts.
不应该存在的史前古器物
Artifacts that shouldn't exist.
如果伦敦锤真的可以追溯到一亿多年前 正如数据显示的那样
NARRATOR: If the London Hammer really dates back to over 100 million years, as the data suggests,
这一发现将从根本上重塑我们对人类在地球上发展的理解
this find would have to fundamentally reshape our understanding of human development on Planet Earth.
但古代宇航员理论家认为
But ancient astronaut theorists suggest
还有一件比主流考古学家认为的更古老的古代遗迹:
there is another, much more substantial relic of the ancient world that is far older than mainstream archaeologists propose:
吉萨大金字塔
the Great Pyramid of Giza.
埃及吉萨金字塔
NARRATOR: Giza, Egypt.
在尼罗河西岸
Here, on the west bank of the Nile,
它是古代世界七大奇迹中最古老的一个:
stands the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World:
大金字塔
the Great Pyramid.
根据公认的历史
According to accepted history,
大金字塔建于公元前2500年左右 是法老胡夫的陵墓
the Great Pyramid was built around 2500 BC as a tomb for the Pharaoh Khufu.
然而 金字塔的年代与胡夫的联♥系♥
However, the dating of the pyramid and its association with Khufu
完全基于1837年5月英国探险家理查德•霍华德•维斯发现的证据
is based entirely on evidence discovered in May of 1837 by British explorer Richard Howard Vyse.
维斯上校 基本上是用火♥药♥…
Colonel Vyse, um, basically used, um, gunpowder...
炸开一条路
得到一系列的隐藏腔室
在腔室的最上面
据说他在挡在前面的石头顶上找到了图案 那是胡夫的象形图案
埃及学家就认为大金字塔是胡夫的
并认为建造日期在公元前2500年前
因为他们认为胡夫在当时统治埃及
由于石头不能用碳测定年代
NARRATOR: Since stone cannot be carbon‐dated,
也没有其他铭文
and no other inscriptions,
只有法老的官方字母
except for the Pharaoh's official monogram,
是在金字塔上发现的
were found on the pyramid,
这个日期相对来说没有受到挑战
this date has stood relatively unchallenged.
然而在维斯上校的私人日记中发现的新证据 让研究人员开始质疑他的发现
However, new evidence that has been found in Colonel Vyse's personal journal has researchers questioning his discovery.
有些人甚至认为他可能伪造了胡夫的名字
Some have even suggested that he may have forged the name of Khufu himself.
在维斯的私人旅行日志上 我在几年前发现了矛盾
在他的私人笔记中 他急切地想找到象形图案
在这个特别的夜晚 他写道
房♥间里没有任何东西看起来像象形文字
后来 三年后在他出版的书籍上写道
我只找到了一种象形图案
在矛盾的证据被揭露之后
NARRATOR: After the contradicting evidence was exposed,
2014年 德累斯顿大学的两名考古专业学生 走私了一份用于国王胡夫标记的颜料样本
in 2014, two University of Dresden archaeology students smuggled a sample of the paint used in the King Khufu markings
并让德国实验室对其进行分♥析♥
and had it analyzed by a German laboratory.
虽然样本太小 无法进行放射性碳年代测定
The sample was too small for radiocarbon dating,
但技术人员能够确定一些令人震惊的事情:
but the technicians were able to determine something shocking:
颜料不是画在原来的石灰石上的
the pigment was not painted onto the original limestone blocks,
而是后来做了石膏修补
but a later plaster repair.
这一发现表明 这个金字塔的象形图案并不是最初的金字塔结构 而是在更晚的时期添加的
This finding suggests that the cartouche was not original to the pyramid construction, but added at a much later date.
维斯上校花费了将近130万美元来探索大金字塔的真♥相♥
Colonel Vyse had spent nearly $1.3 million on his expedition to uncover truths about the Great Pyramid.
有没有可能 在他绝望地寻找着什么东西的时候
Is it possible that in his desperation to find something,
他做了一件不可思议的事 把胡夫象形图案伪造在了房♥间的墙上
he did the unthinkable and forged the cartouche of Khufu onto the chamber wall,
从而确定了一个不准确的结构日期
thereby establishing an inaccurate date for the structure?
有趣的是 这并不是唯一与金字塔和整个吉萨建筑群的年代相矛盾的证据
Interestingly, this is not the only evidence contradicting the dating of the Pyramid and the entire Giza Complex.
公元前七世纪的《盘存石碑》
A seventh century BC text known as the Inventory Stela,
于1858年被考古学家发掘
unearthed by archaeologists in 1858,
由法老胡夫修复其细节
details repairs made by Pharaoh Khufu,
包括狮身人面像
including work on the Sphinx.
我们提出了盘存石碑的问题 如果胡夫在修复
据说是他儿子建造的狮身人面像 他为什么要这么做？
这意味着 在胡夫时代 狮身人面像本身就已经很古老了
整个吉萨地点的日期会是错误的吗?
NARRATOR: Could the dating of the entire Giza site be wrong?
1992年 波士顿大学的地质学家罗伯特·科奇在埃及学者群体中引起了轰动
In 1992, Boston University geologist Robert Schoch created a stir among Egyptologists
当他提出 根据狮身人面像周围水侵蚀的证据
when he suggested that, based on the evidence of water erosion at the Sphinx enclosure,
他认为这个地方的历史大约在公元前10500年
he would date the site to approximately 10,500 BC.
马上 甚至没有看到我的证据
SCHOCH: Immediately, without even seeing my evidence,
他们开始说 “它不会溯源那么远”
they start going, "It doesn't go back that far."
我说的是真正的证据 真正的科学
I was talking about real evidence, real science,
他们只是不想听
which they simply did not want to hear,
因为它不符合他们的先入之见
because it did not fit their preconceptions.
就像狮身人面像
NARRATOR: Like the Sphinx,
大金字塔有可能比埃及古物学家愿意承认的还要古老吗?
is it possible that the Great Pyramid is also far older than Egyptologists are willing to admit?
但如果是的话 到底是谁建造的呢?
But if so, just who built it?
根据阿♥拉♥伯作家易卜拉欣·马克里兹的说法
According to Arabian writers Ibrahim al‐Maqrizi,
大金字塔不是胡夫建造的
the Great Pyramid was not constructed by Khufu,
大金字塔是在大洪水之前很久 由一个名叫苏瑞德的国王建造的
the Great Pyramid was constructed long before the Great Flood by a king with the name of Surid.
然后 古代阿♥拉♥伯作家明确地说 苏瑞德就是希伯来社会所称的以诺
And then, the old Arabian writers clearly say Surid is the same figure which the Hebrew society calls Enoch.
以诺被大天使迈克尔带到了天堂
WILLIAM HENRY: Enoch was taken up into the heavens by the archangel Michael.
天使告诉他一场大灾难即将来临 他被指示建造大金字塔
He was told by the angels of a coming cataclysm and he was instructed to build the Great Pyramid
作为知识的宝库 他不仅学习天堂的知识
as a repository for the knowledge that he not only learned in Heaven,
还学习所有世俗的知识
but all the earthly knowledge as well.
也许他们是被称为天使的外星人
Perhaps these were otherworldly beings described as angels.
也许我们所知道的关于埃及学的一切都是错误的
Maybe everything we know about Egyptology is wrong.
我们必须回到过去 打开我们的想象 去面对另一种可能性
And we have to go back and, and open up our imagination to the possibility that there's another explanation that
那就是事实上在大金字塔的建造过程中 有外星人的帮助
in fact involves the assistance of extraterrestrials in the creation of the Great Pyramid.
在2015年11月
NARRATOR: In November 2015,
吉萨的研究人员使用热成像相机扫描了大金字塔
researchers at Giza scanned the Great Pyramid using thermal cameras,
发现了两个异常区域
and found two anomalous areas.
他们向古物部提交了一份请求 要求进行更正式的调查
They submitted a request to the Department of Antiquities to do a more formal investigation
希望找到他们认为可能隐藏的密室
in hopes of locating what they believe might be hidden chambers.
随着科学家们继续在该遗址发现新发现
As scientists continue to discover new finds at the site,
他们会偶然发现支持古代记载的证据吗?
might they stumble upon the evidence that supports the ancient accounts?
毕竟
After all,
这种事以前发生过
this has happened before,
随着一块曾经神秘土地的发掘
with the unearthing of a once mythical land.
希沙里克 土耳其 1870年
NARRATOR: Hisarlik, Turkey. 1870.
这个小村庄有着19世纪最轰动的发现之一:
This small village is the site of one of the most sensational discoveries of the 19th century:
传说中的特洛伊城
the legendary city of Troy.
这座城市是古希腊史诗《伊利亚特》中特洛伊战争的发生地
The city was the infamous location for the Trojan War described in the classic Greek epic "The Iliad."
在业余考古学家海因里希•施利曼发现它之前
Prior to its discovery by amateur archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann,
特洛伊城被认为是一个神秘的地方
Troy was considered to be a mythical location.
德国商人和先驱海因里希•施利曼
Heinrich Schliemann, a German businessman and pioneer,
阅读荷马的《奥德赛》和《伊利亚特》
read Homer's "Odyssey" and "The Iliad"
他开始相信特洛伊城就在土耳其的某个地方 就在故事里的那个地方
and he became convinced that Troy existed somewhere in Turkey, where it's placed within the story.
于是他去了土耳其 他问那里的当地人对这个传说的了解
So he went out to Turkey and he asked the locals out there what they knew about the legends.
最后他们把他指向一个巨大的土丘
And they eventually pointed him in the direction of a huge mound.
所以他在这里挖
So here he dug,
他找到了失落的特洛伊城
and he found the lost city of Troy itself.
除了特洛伊
NARRATOR: In addition to Troy,
以前被认为是神话的其他城市也被发现是真实的
other cities that were previously relegated to the realm of mythology have also been discovered to be real.
地中海
The Mediterranean Sea.
2000年
2000.
一群潜水员在埃及亚历山德里亚附近的海岸工作
A group of divers working off the Egyptian coast near Alexandria
他们发现了被淹没的雕像遗址 甚至是整个寺庙建筑群
discovered the submerged ruins of statues and even entire temple complexes.
我们认为具有传奇色彩的一个发现是 赫拉克利恩的托尼斯
One instance of the discovery of something that we thought was legendary was the discovery of Heracleion, Thonis,
在亚历山大附近
near Alexandria.
我们在希腊神话和希腊历史中读到过
We had read about this in Greek myth and Greek histories.
但我们没有证据
We had no evidence for it.
然后 有一天 它被发现了
And then, one day, it gets discovered.
这可以追溯到公元前七世纪
NARRATOR: Dating back to the seventh century BC,
希腊人管它叫多尼斯或赫拉克利翁
Thonis, or Heracleion, as it was known to the Greeks,
在古代神话中被认为是该地区的主要贸易站
was cited in ancient myths as a major trading post for the region.
很长一段时间
JONATHAN YOUNG: For a long time.
埃及的赫拉克利恩的故事很多
Heracleion in Egypt was in many stories,
但直到2000年才被发现
but had not been found until the year 2000.
在印度 2001年
In India, in the year 2001,
类似的事情也发生过
something similar happened.
