The hypothesis that ancient structures were built to create and enhance sound has been around for a long time, but there has been very little evidence to back it up. However, a new study of monuments in Ireland, Malta, Southern Turkey, and Peru recently concluded that they were all designed with the purpose of controlling and conducting sound waves.
Experts now claim that this was intended to produce sensory effects that could destabilize and even manipulate someone’s actions in an instant.
Hal Saflieni Hypogeum brought this up at the site from Malta in 2008, but he was shunned because he didn’t have any evidence to begin with.
Fortunately, his hypothesis drew enough attention that he was able to assemble a team of experts who wanted to see if his theory was correct.
As a result, the team partnered and performed the analysis in various locations around the world. The 6,000-year-old Malta complex, on the other hand, was by far the most intriguing, as it appears to have several features that would boost sound waves in the air.
The walls themselves seem to have been constructed with the intention of allowing the lowest voice to pass across all three levels of the building in one fell swoop.
We already know that 110hz patterned vibrations have an effect on our brain, so this only adds to the evidence that this was the original purpose of these ancient structures.
