Considering the exceptional precision of the Serapeum coffins... and the obelisks we saw before... and other artifacts we will see later... it appears to us that the ancient Egyptians used tools that no longer exist... there is no trace of them in the inscriptions and writings, they do not exist in museums... somehow they disappeared or we do not see them! So the question now is - what is the minimum tools that we can use today to carve a single Serapeum coffin? Tunnels, giant boxes, Apis burials, evidence of a sudden halt in Serapeum work, and other things in this episode Note about measurements Measurements were made on coffin No. 24 in 2019 A Russian team made other measurements on coffin No. 16 in 2022, and recorded small percentages of error in the right angles that I learned about later, but that does not change anything about the accuracy and difficulty of carving the coffins 00:00 Introduction 1:32 History of the Serapeum 5:52 Digging the tunnels 9:24 Carving and transporting the coffins 24:00 What is the benefit of the Serapeum boxes? 27:39 Reusing the Serapeum 30:51 Conclusion Facebook page / ahmed.adly8 Arabic Subtitles: El-Sayed Ibrahim Thanks to everyone who contributed Ms. Amira Amir El-Sayed: Translation and explanation of pages from the book Serapeum of Memphis from French to Arabic M.
