Like star forts, some of our worldwide canals are arbiters of truth.
Little information or photos exist (15 min of searching) on actual construction of large canals except for the Panama, Suez expansion, and Corinth digs.
Even expanding canals like the Suez is a real job of work with modern technology.
The ancient canals in America are everywhere, and expand into nooks, crannies, and little harbors. Some make no sense at all.
I have a feeling the ancient builders used more elegant tech that giant ships with a huge grinder wheel at front and a dredger at the rear.
By all accounts they revered nature, worshipped it.
If sound vibration was a universal tool in ancient times, perhaps they somehow used it to "carve" canals. If sound tools can melt rock or rather soften it, can it cut trees? Stumps?
What's also amazing is that the arrow-straight bayou canals are still free of trees and natural debris. How was that achieved?
Shouldn't the bayou canals be overgrown by now? Does anyone know?
I know there are some dual lane canals out to sea off Louisiana at Grand Terre island, you can just barely make them out. How old might they be if the sea surrounds them? Are those Prediluvian?
I can barley wrap my head around the Corinth canal, and what a massive job it was. Did they restore it like the Panama as well?
