In a rarely seen part of the ancient granite quarry in Aswan, Egypt, there is evidence for a gigantic block, possibly larger than the unfinished obelisk being extracted in ancient times. What's more, there are strong indications here that this was done in predynastic times, before the Ancient Egyptian civilization ever begun their own quarrying operations on this site.

Join me as we investigate the socalled 'harbor' area of the quarry, and examine the evidence for predynastic quarry operations, and the removal of a massive block of granite in antiquity.

Many thanks to Simon Reynolds of Kinetik for the awesome new intro animation!
