Marcell Foti, an IT professional turned researcher, shares his journey into exploring the Natron theory. Natron is a type of salt found in salt lakes, and Marcell discovered that it has the ability to etch granite and quartz. He conducted experiments using Natron and found that it can be used to carve stone, challenging the traditional belief that ancient civilizations used primitive tools. Marcell also discusses the historical evidence of Natron being used in ancient Egypt, such as the presence of Natron residue in tombs and the use of Natron in the creation of limestone blocks. He emphasizes that Natron was a versatile material used in various ways by ancient civilizations. The conversation explores the use of natron in ancient civilizations, particularly in Egypt and Peru. Natron, a naturally occurring salt, was used for various purposes such as mummification, toothpaste, and glassmaking. The discovery of natron sources in Bolivia and Peru suggests that these civilizations had access to this versatile material. The conversation challenges the notion that ancient people were primitive and highlights their ingenuity in utilizing natron for various applications. The collapse of civilizations, such as the Mayans, due to the depletion of natron sources is also discussed.
