NOVA S24E15 Secrets Of Lost Empires Obelisk avi

This television documentary is one in a four-part series that tests theories regarding the architectural achievements of ancient civilizations. Based on archaeological evidence, scientists conduct physical reconstructions of these theories to see if they would actually have worked. The series is co-produced by Nova and BBC. In this installment, theories about how ancient civilizations cut, moved, and constructed giant stone obelisks are tested. Viewers travel to Aswan, where these obelisks were cut from the quarries, to attempt to reconstruct the process with a 35-foot-long hunk of rock using what they think may have been the same techniques used by the ancients.
