Between XII-XIII century BC (after the alleged Troy), hypothetical ‘Sea People’ could not make dissapear so many civilizations. We are looking for the reason of blamed catastrophes (vulcanism, earthquakes, droughts and fires). A common origin for them might be in the re-arrangement of solar system.
Heavenly bodies with most probabilities to inflict such a damage are Venus and Moon. If we assume that Venus circularized its orbit during the Dryas, only the capture of the Moon can explain the chain of catastrophes. For this to happen it’s a must to consider the Electromagnetic Universe Paradigm. Volcanism, earthquakes and other geologic phenomena are closely related to electricity.
It is said Baalbek is Roman.
That cannot be old as Trilithon and quarry stones are not eroded as the Sphinx of Giza.
There are no historical records from Bronze Age or before.
ONLY ROMAN REFERENCES
Antonius Pius started the ‘Great Court’ in II century AD. It was finished by Septimus Severus. His son, Carcalla, made the Propyleum. Marcus Julius Phipipus (Philip the Arabian) made the ‘Hexagonal Court’. Constantine the Great demolished Venus’ Temple to build a Church (c. III). Justinian took away 8remaning columns to Hagya Sophia (Constantinopla). There is NO ancient reference about Temples of Bachus and Jupiter.
LATERAN OBELISK 330 tons
Augustus (14 AD): “...as for this one recently brought in, he neither ventured to meddle with it nor move it, overawed by the difficulties caused by its size”.
Constantine (312 AD): ‘...After these provisions, the aforesaid emperor departed this life and the urgency of the enterprise waned, but at last the obelisk was loaded on the ship, after long delay, and brought over the sea and up the channel of the Tiber, which seemed to fear that it could hardly forward over the difficulties of its outward course to the walls of its foster-child the gift which the almost unknown Nile had sent’.
‘But it was brought to the vicus Alexandri distant three miles from the city. There it was put on cradles and carefully drawn through the Ostian Gate and by the Piscina Publica and brought into the Circus Maximus”.
Ammianus Marcellinus (400 AD): soldier and historian
THE THUNDER STONE
First modern SUPER-CRANE able to lift nominal 1,000 tons was Krupp K 10001 built in 1971 (15). It was a mix of mobile and fixed crane and was constructed to build the Olympic Munich Stadium. The ThunderStone (pedestal of Peter the Great horseman statue) is at best flimsy. The 1500 tons block, moved some impressive 6 km over marsh land, was apparently split from the base rock by lightning, which could have some issues on its density (speculative). There is just one paper in french by J.P Adam and some circling references from wiki to wiki. Even if Romans knew about winches, pulleys or capstans, it doesn't mean they were able to move such stones.
The proof is they didn't move the monoliths in the quarries (probably because they were buried and unnoticed) and they could NOT even move the LATERAN OBELISK of 330 tons. We could argue about the wooden sleigh devised by Carbury (a Greek architect) which half meter thick base was protected by a cooper-tin-calamine alloy (bronze with calamine). Did Romans knew calamine?
To finish with this, that XVII century men were capable of moving such a stone doesn't imply the Romans could. Otherwise it is a Fallacy. Indeed, it's written by themselves they COULD NOT MOVE A 330 tons OBELISK.
EROSION
Limestone erosion in Giza was due to rain-off (water stored on the plateau). There are sensible evidences that Baalbek could have been buried underseveral meters of mud and silt. Thus, erosion wouldn’t happen. There’s an ash layer of 30 cm between Bronze Age and Iron Age. In Bacchus Temple we can see (picture) the drawings only on top of the first 10 m height.
Going on with the erosion you may appreciate it in the PRE-ROMAN PODIUM and the columns. Granite sawing cuts like the ones at Giza can be found everywhere. In fact, it was so buried with sludge that beside the Pregnant Woman, it was discovered the so-called Baby-Stone (1600 tons) in 2014!!! It was under more than 5 meters below the Pregnant Woman (1200 tons) stone. There could be some discussion about whether the base of the stones in the quarry is finished or not, but that's beyond the scope of this comment.
There are some webs that shows a collection of drawing and pics from the XVII-XVIII centuries where the burial and rubble spread all around is manifest. The South Wall of Bacchus Temple (to the left as you enter) is badly damaged (it has been somewhat repaired during last decade, but I have older pictures), showing clear signs of black burning and vitrification, especially compared with the North Wall (to the right). Probably a plasma wave or discharge? (speculative).
The Podium is a pre-roman terrace which is acknowledge by Lohman and other mainstream historians. In fact, there are papers that acknowledge the uncertainty about the TWO PODIUMS. In relation to the repairing column mentioned by Hancock (I think is not so important), it is probably a Roman or Arab repair. Romans are supposed to be more intelligent than that. Even my 3 year old nephew knows it makes no sense to place a cylinder under a hole to support squared stones. If they were so skilled, why shouldn't they cut a squared stone to make the repair??
More questions: why did they left big stones in the quarries (1 km away from Baalbek)? Why no record or writing account of such incredible feats? Why didn't they built that huge Temples in Rome itself, instead doing it in a desert in the middle of nowhere?
If the quarries were covered with slit which reached the level of the Podium Base (and the Trilithon, 10 meters in Bacchus temple) that explains why erosion didn't happen. Additionally it explains why no other accounts were made of the site, since even today new discoveries are being unearthed. If Romans would have noticed the Pregnant Woman or the Second Stone they would have used it as an easy material source (something like this happened in the Second Stone, from which some slabs were cut, probably by the Arabs).
THERE ARE STILL QUESTIONS
May the Moon have been a bridge connecting plasmaspheres of Venus and Earth causing the catastrophes?
Which cataclysm destroyed the Temples built/repaired by Rome in Baalbek, leaving them in so regrettable state?
Who were Vedas (Aryans or Phoenicians)?
