Ancient Wonders of Engineering and Innovation

Ancient Egyptians performed brain surgery with a 90% survival rate, three millennia ago.

No anesthesia, no antibiotics. Patients lived years after, proving their surgical

precision. Incas built Machu Picchu without mortar. Their stones fit so perfectly,

no paper can slide. They cut massive boulders with such accuracy that earthquakes

cannot topple their structures. Sumerians invented beer before writing. They prioritized alcohol

over recording history. Roman concrete is stronger than ours today. Volcanic ash was

their recently understood secret. Your driveway cracks, but their harbors still stand underwater.

Incredible.
