More on: Ancient chemistry

The podcast episodes highlight a comprehensive theory that the ancient Egyptian pyramids, as well as other ancient structures worldwide, were designed as sophisticated chemical processing plants.

According to the theory, these structures leveraged principles like dielectric materials, telluric currents, and lightning strikes to produce a variety of chemicals, including ammonia, sulfuric acid, and hydrochloric acid, for applications such as fertilizers, mining, and metallurgy.

The episodes detail the proposed functions of individual pyramids and their roles in a larger system aimed at generating thunderstorms and harnessing lightning as a power source, showcasing the advanced knowledge and application of chemistry in the ancient world.
