Hey guys, today I am gonna show you these extraordinary pillars in the ancient temple of Angkor Wat. You can see right away, that these pillars cannot be made using primitive tools like chisels and hammers, you absolutely have to use a lathe machine, a rotating mechanism to create these pillars, and experts agree that this is not possible using chisels and hammers. I have already shown you large pillars in ancient Indian temples which have been created using lathe technology, but these pillars of Angkor Wat are much more advanced – This is so advanced that it is not even possible to do it today, using the technology we have. I know that’s a big statement, but if you watch till the end of the video, you may agree with me.
Look at the pillars here, there is something very strange about them, yes these marks called turn marks can be achieved only using lathe technology, but look at the other operations here, they did complex processes like thread cutting, this is the only way to achieve several little cylinders in the same shaft, they did another process called chamfering, so one part becomes bulgy while the other part is narrow. Imagine doing these complicated machining at least 900 years ago on solid sandstone blocks.
But ancient builders were not satisfied even after processing them in a lathe machine, after this, they then carved on the faces of the pillars, there are carvings in millimeters on them everywhere, but all this is not crazy, the real crazy part is that vertical groove. The vertical line that goes from top to bottom. This is impossible to achieve even with lathe technology. You cannot make vertical grooves like this, unless you use another advanced machine like an angle grinder or a circular saw today. But it is not even the vertical groove that bothers me, what is really crazy is that, this line goes from the top to the bottom, and look at the depth of that groove. This is not a fancy groove made for beauty. This is a cut, that was made deep enough to open the pillar into 4 equal halves lengthwise. Look, this is incredible, they made straight, deep lines that go from top to bottom, so they could cut the pillar open into 4 equal halves. We cannot do this today, even with modern technology. This pillar is probably 2 inches wide, imagine taking a cylinder made of sandstone that is just 2 inches wide, cut it into 4 equal halves and put it back together to make it look like one solid piece. We cannot do this today, unless we used computerized machines like CNC machines.
So, how did they cut solid sandstone lengthwise into 4 equal halves? Even more interesting, how did they glue these blocks back together so it looks like one piece even after so many centuries? Look at the perfect fitting here, this looks like woodwork, but each pillar is made of 4 joined pieces.
This is clear evidence of ancient machining technology, but there is an important question that’s even more mind boggling. WHY? Why did they have to process these pillars in lathes, and then split them up, only to put them back together? It is much easier to just have it as a single piece, rather than cut it into 4 pieces and put them back together. So why did they do this?
Think about it, why would you cut something open, and then put it back together? If there is no need for it, you will never cut it open in the first place. The only reason you will do this, is if you have to put something inside.
Today, we do this all the time when we need to keep something safe. We make a secret hole, put some valuable stuff inside, and then put it back together and pretend it is a solid box, right? We have experts who make so many secret compartments in houses. It will look solid, but if you push a button, or if you use leverage, it will open up. If you see how they make these secret boxes, they take a solid piece, cut it finely, make a small room in the center, and put it back so no one can even tell that it is a container holding something inside. 99% of people will just think it is one solid piece. Is this why these pillars were cut open?
Because there is absolutely no other need to cut this into 4 pieces and then put it back together. So there is definitely something inside. What is inside? Is it somehow related to the technology that is inside Angkor Wat’s main towers? In a previous video, I already showed you how there was a mysterious “energy box” inside the main tower’s secret chamber.

Hey guys, today we are going to solve the puzzle of Angkor Wat’s Stone Work. In a previous video, I had estimated that Angkor Wat would have needed at least 10 Million tons of sandstone blocks to build the temple. As you can see, Angkor Wat is entirely made of sandstone, and it is so big that it would have needed at least that many rocks. But there is a fundamental problem with this, if you look at the quarry sites of Angkor Wat, we can be sure that 10,000,000 tons of rocks were not removed from here. And experts confirm there are no other sandstone quarries nearby from which the rocks have been taken. So where did ancient builders magically get these sandstone blocks from? If you watch till the end of the video, you will know.
“So that is where the tourists are, that is where the main temple is. This is almost the edge of the temple but this is where all information is. See this is sandstone, this is this rock basically. You can see the blocks that were used to make this temple. I don’t think these were leftovers. These are parts taken out and put here. So you can see these blocks of sandstone – this is what the entire temple is made of. These are the sandstone blocks that made the temple and you can see a bunch of them here and there is a pile of blocks which goes all the way and this is all sandstone. These are sandstone blocks, parts of pillars, I can tell right away, some make up the other structures. But you see those rocks there, that is where it gets really interesting. Can you see the difference between that rock and this rock? This rock is sandstone but that is not sandstone. I think that is volcanic basalt, that’s – Cambodians call this Lava Rock, you see how porous it is. Let us go take a look and see how this was used. See how these rocks are, right? You can tell right away that you cannot put these rocks as front pieces of a temple right? Because you see how porous they are and how rough they are. If they are carved, this is not going to look good. But why do you see these huge rectangular blocks right? You can see how many blocks here right? This entire area is full of these “Lava Rocks”. But these rocks were also used in the construction of the temple. Nobody understands this, people think it is made of sandstone but these rocks were key to the construction of the Angkor Wat temple. So let’s go take a look and see where these were used. ”
We are on the other edge of the temple, you can see tourists and tour guides walking into the temple, but remember, the information is always in places where people do not look. So I start exploring the woods nearby, normal people do not venture into this area.
And you can see something very exciting, the Angkor Wat temple is not only protected by a moat, but it has a giant compound wall, not only now, even a thousand years ago, most people would not visit this area, but this giant temple is protected by a 16 foot wall on all 4 sides. But the most important feature is the material used here.
“So this where the lava rocks were used. There is no need for dressing this up, there is no need for this compound wall to look beautiful, it was created for protective purposes, and this is why we have blocks and blocks of lava rocks. You can tell – it is not beautiful, but it will absolutely serve the purpose. And we are able to find this only if we go deep, where there is nobody. ”
This material is called basaltic laterite, and it is created as a result of volcanic eruption. I examine this wall which stretches for miles, and when I start returning back to the main premises, something hits me, this wall made of laterite does not solve the mystery of Angkor Wat’s volume of rocks. This wall probably accounts for 1 percent of Angkor Wat’s stone blocks. So, just because I found out that this 1% is made of laterite, it does not explain where 99% of the rocks, the sandstone blocks came from.
