Bizarre Ancient Stone Found Cut In Half With Amazing Precision In Saudi Arabia
Thursday, May 7, 2020 IST
Al Nafud Desert in Saudi Arabia is known worldwide for a bizarre and unique rock that was discovered there.
This rock of considerable size was found cut in half with a perfect cut. As if it had been cut by someone who used extremely advanced technology.
From the moment this stone was discovered, there has been a continuous debate in the scientific community about the origin of the stone and how it was cut.
Who would have had such technology in ancient times to be able to make such a perfect cut?
The first suggestion of the researchers was that we are dealing with a natural phenomenon. A crack that would have widened. But this is unlikely because the cut is perpendicular to the rock layers. This makes this theory very unlikely.
Another interesting detail is that after the perfect cut, the resulting two pieces of stone did not move despite their fragile supports. (see pictures)
Judging by the petroglyphs on this stone, the researchers came to the conclusion that this stone was cut a few centuries BC.
The technology of that time did not allow this. It is as if someone had cut this stone using an extremely advanced and powerful laser.
However, if we look more closely at the cut, we can see that the edges are not 100% perfect, and this refutes the laser theory. Or maybe the cut is no longer perfect due to the erosion caused all these years.
Regardless of how this cut appeared, this megalithic stone remains an important tourist spot. Every year, a lot of tourists come here to see this mysterious stone.
