The Stone Conveyor

Abstract: This paper challenges the traditional mechanical view of megalithic construction. By analyzing density gradients in stone blocks across Egypt, Peru, Lebanon, Crete, and China, the author identifies a consistent shell-core structure (crust density 2.90 vs. core density 2.45) that is physically impossible in natural stone. The study introduces the Natron League theory, suggesting that ancient engineers used chemical activators to produce geopolymer concrete. Comparative analysis with sites like Stonehenge and Malta confirms that without chemical activators, stone density remains low and uniform (2.30-2.40).
