Prompt of the day “Gold” - No Historical Records
From where does the “intrinsic” come for the value of gold?
When starting to look into the history of the value of gold how it became used for a transfer of wealth most often you will find yourself in the center of a conspiracy theory.
The earliest records go back so far to the Samarian’s written in a language that the translation is still being disputed. Oh Zachariah Stitchen and the pot you stirred with your translations!
So why does humanity value gold? Is it simply because it’s shiny and can be used for jewelry or as a sign of wealth and stature within a community?
Or is it as Zachariah speculated with his translations, there was a demand for it far above our own?
Better yet how did Humanity devise the system of refining the precious metal from ore on our own? This is the part of the equation that is completely neglected! Just about everything that we value has some sort of written history behind it except for gold.
How did the Egyptians figure out how to gold plate things using electric charges? Case in point the golden face mask of Tutankhamen which experts have analyzed and stated only to be possible to create such a fine work of gold by using gold plating techniques which have no recorded history to their discovery at that time. No recorded history of their use for that matter!
How can the history of something we value so highly be completely lost including the techniques of refinement and use in gold plating?

I've asked myself this question before.
And what you state on this post is exactly why I love ancient egypt so much. They were such an advanced civilization and yet, kept in secrecy. A magical time, how did they know so much, when other places didn't share the same knowledge?
Actually if you dig a little deeper you will find evidence that other civilizations did have much of the same technology seemingly lost through time. Pyramids exist on every continent with very similar building techniques and many with megalithic stones we cannot explain how they were placed, some we cannot do with today’s techniques. Much of these are explained to be creations of the settlement which we know inhabited them yet those inhabitants claim to have discovered them often already in ruins and merely rebuilt them. The one similarity between each “ruin” is mention of “star people” or messages from the stars. Often times it is merely understanding of ancient languages and interpretation which makes us think their statements are not literal.
I strongly believe they are literal as very few ancient manuscripts tell tall tales because the effort used to record these events was not an everyday persons feat.

Makes sense.
I wasn't so much talking about the pyramids (although quite ingenious) I was thinking about the other things the did, embalming, brain surgery, all the science they knew. I dont know enough about the other civilizations but perhaps I should start as others may have done some similar things LOL.
Well honestly the pyramids are the one part along with the other megalithic structures around the world that really emphasize the fact of lost technology. What we have found within Egypt so far does not explain where they came from and how they were built nor can we explain how we would do it today. The things that we can explain are pretty obviously discoveries through trial and error by the civilization that we know existed.
Just simply the fact that we find megalithic structures with a very similar building techniques all around the world that pre-date what the main stream narrative is pushing for the timeline of humanity says to me there’s an entire lost chapter of humanity. Then you start thinking about the stories in any of the scriptures that still remain, cataclysm’s that wipe out the entire population then relate that to discoveries found in places such as Bosnia with their pyramids being buried under ocean conglomerate as they call it which is essentially cement created by massive turmoil of the ocean and deposited onto land. Below that the structures were seemingly closed off to protect from this “flood” which says somehow the civilization had knowledge of how intense the event would be!
Essentially they don’t want us to know where we came from because we will fear our future, how long do we have to the next cyclical cataclysm? Which by the way science is starting to prove has happened several times in history but the cause of it the jury is still out on.
It's definitely mind blowing.
I actually fear the reason that may be. I have suspicions but they aren't things that I like to talk about. And so, how right you are when you say they don't want us to know.
On another note, for the sake of having this great conversation, has it ever been talked about why pyramids were chosen? Not why they are all over but why they are pyramids. It was long ago when I watched a thing about it, but they were only theories. I'm wondering if it's still just theories. I am curious about all this. I need to make time to look it all up.
It is very fascinating to see all these structures, how intelligent these civilizations were. They really knew so much that has taught us what we know today, makes me think a bit, if they knew of how things are for us today, if that's how they wanted things to go. I sometimes have a strange way of thinking lol. The more questions, the more we may get answers, the more we can connect the dots.
Well the structure of the pyramids designed to withstand massive cataclysm hinting at knowledge of the impending doom. But if you actually dive into the structure internally of the pyramid there is rooms that do not make sense if only thinking of the structure as a monument for the dead. Just about every pyramid out there has some form of energy emanating from it as if it is a power source then add in the existence of the Baghdad battery.
The geometry of the pyramid is laid out perfectly to be used as a collection point of energy and conversion into a form that we can more readily use. The best example of what I’m talking about is the Bosnian pyramid which has a completely detectable energy wave emanating from the top. The curious part about this energy wave is that it seemingly gets stronger the further you go from source which breaks everything we understand of physics as energy cannot get stronger but rather dissipates when moving away from source.
So far everything just leads to more questions but I do believe that’s largely because of the suppressed information.

That is awesomely amazing. The grandeur of it all. How did they come to understand that and know it? You are right on how it leads to more questions. I know have some. I love this stuff, so where do we go to find some of these answers... that is available to us of course.
I'm loving this conversation, thank you for sharing this with me ^_^
I assume the only answers we will get will be from what is not being told! Lack of information can be used as a confirmation of information.
Have you ever looked into the mathematical analogy of the information scribd into the structure of the great pyramid of Egypt? Mathematical equations that relate deeply to our entire solar system and accurately depicting measurements that we today have only learned about through our development of technology! The only way it would be possible for them to have an understanding of our solar system is if they themselves traveled or were given information one way or another.

Very nicely put. Nothing has value until we place value on it. This is probably a little odd. In the Fallout games, their monetary system is bottlecaps. Old paper money has no value. So from a past perspective to a post-apocalyptic look, it's all where we place our value.
The question would be what function does that bottle cap have that gives it intrinsic value? Most things that have value extend from the purpose driven function in everyday life or as a sign of stature.
You are right about where we assign our value yet I still wonder why gold, so many other metals have multiple functions yet gold the most useless in everyday life has been held above all others 🤔

I just had a podcast interview on the very real harm gold is causing to the land and people. I will tag you when I have edited it.
Yea that’s part of the equation people don’t often consider, like anything that comes from the ground and requires refining the processes are, simply put, “dirty”.
Please do 💪

Great questions. I think that things are purposely being hidden from us.

I totally agree with you @whatisnew partially we have lost some history and what history does remain is being hidden and obscured from us, why don’t they want us to know where we came from?
Thank you for the prompt delivery my friend!
