----Original Message----- From: Frank Roarty Has Vortex previously considered cavitation of ambient gases in limestone and other calcium based megaliths? Numerous cultures have common legends of levitating great stones...
Just wondering... Well, you have to draw the lines (of credulity) somewhere, Fran ;-) However, acoustic levitation is scientific fact ... as is sonoluminescence and the Casimir force - sonofusion is less likely, but possible ... the first three are certain beyond doubt, so maybe this is worth some consideration. ....despite the fact that acoustic levitation is not known to be efficient, but that does not mean that it was not part of some kind of lost 'secret', as improbable as that may "sound". Do I hear a deep rumble of laughter out there? ....so, we could start there with the suggestion, which is based on historical evidence of an array of Shofar, primitive horns ... that is, assuming that you are referring to the possibility of levitating of large stones (which can be mostly calcium, in the case of limestone) by primitive people using sound to instigate cavitation, with secondary Casimir effects... then ... there is anecdotal evidence that will perhaps allow an "arguable" case... perhaps only slightly more convincing than the hypothesis of the Egyptian pyramid blocks being cast in situ from ancient concrete... In Biblical days, the "Shofar" or ram's horn was used as a sound to rally troops to battle, and was said to have been used by Gideon and his priests (in the Book of Judges) as a weapon against the enemy -- and then by Joshua to bring down the walls of Jericho. Ancient images of these horns (and those from other animals like Eland, etc all of which have 'Fibonacci twists') have been found in Egypt and Iraq (Babylon) long before there was an Israel, so we can assume that this type of horn, and its acoustic properties, were well known to early builders (and warriors). Did the 'twist' play a role in the acoustic properties? (i.e. the 'superwave' theory) The hypothesis, then, can be furthered by the suggestion that certain types of chosen stone will have natural Casimir (skeletal) cavities, in which by virtue of an external acoustic signal, some medium will be amplified in a desired (antigravity) vector. That may explain why the quarries (for the largest stones) were often a long distance away from the pyramid site. This preferred vector could be inadvertent, even - and due to the application of water or oil (blood, etc ?) to the bottom side of the block of stone, say, when the liquid was used as a lubricant in dragging the stone 'most of the way' to where it is to be levitated by the hornblowers to its final position. Does anyone want to take it from there?
