#26 - What Sumerian Tablets Really Say About the Anunnaki | Dr. Mark Weeden

1 Stunde 27 Minuten
Dr. Mark Weeden takes us through how cuneiform was deciphered, why Sumerian went unrecognised for decades, and what the Mesopotamian texts actually say about the Anunnaki. We also cover the flood myths, Göbekli Tepe, and whether the Hittites really invented iron.

#25 - Ancient Egyptian Precision: What 3D Measurements Reveal | Marián Marčiš

2 Stunden 36 Minuten
Marián Marcis is a surveyor and associate professor of photogrammetry who uses 3D measurement to test long-standing claims about ancient Egyptian stonework. In this episode, we discuss his peer-reviewed experiment in the Aswan quarry, how long the unfinished obelisk would really have taken, the saw marks on the Hordjedef sarcophagus, the famous "overcut" at Karnak, and the symmetry of Ramesses II. We also dive into how photogrammetry works, what it can and cannot tell us, and why a mobile phone is now a serious measuring instrument.

#23 - Egyptology Is Changing Its Mind About Ancient Lathes | Dr. Martin Odler

2 Stunden 32 Minuten
This is Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Martin Odler, Egyptologist and leading expert on ancient Egyptian copper tools. We dig into topics like: the Petrie core and the feed rate debate around its spiral drilling marks, how ancient Egyptians may have used a lathe to produce stone vases, the Giza iron plate and whether it's actually ancient, the Labyrinth of Hawara, and the evidence behind who really built the Great Pyramid. Along the way, we also cover the mysterious empty sarcophagus of Queen Hetepheres, the Sabu disc, and what modern archaeological science can still uncover about Old Kingdom technology.

Über diesen Podcast

This channel is the home of the Ancient Technology Podcast, and my documentary work about ancient engineering, lost knowledge, and the open questions of human history. I’m Karoly Poka, a technology innovation research engineer. As a hobby, I use modern tools like 3D scanning, field research, and technical analysis to take a closer look at ancient structures, precision artifacts, and technologies that don’t fit neatly into simple explanations. Here you’ll find full podcast episodes, long-form conversations with researchers, and documentary-style investigations focused on evidence.
