Trilithon Stones have been installed on the structure of a temple in Lebanon, seeing which the human mind is stunned. The weight of each stone is as much as three Blue Wells and surprisingly, they were not only cut in one piece with great skill. Besides they were also transported from 1.5 kilometers away. That too thousands of years ago. But the mystery is that till date no such civilization of humans has passed which is famous for cutting such big stones. Has there been any such civilization in history which had the knowledge which we do not have today.
To investigate the Trilithon Stones, a team of German archaeologists started investigating the stone at the place from where these stones were brought. Even today an incomplete stone is present there, whose weight is said to be 1200 tons. After investigating here, the archaeologists found some such evidence which is very difficult to believe and what they were, we will know in today’s article.

There is a city named Baalbek in the east of Lebanon’s Beqaa Valley. Where there are some ruins of the Roman Empire. People come to see them from all over the world. The interesting thing is that these ruins visible from above were built during the Roman Empire period, but below it archaeologists have found some evidence that has no connection with the Roman Empire. There is a temple built by the ancient Romans here. Which is called the Temple of Jupiter. This temple is still the best example of the architecture and skill of the Roman Empire.
Beneath the structure of this temple, a foundation of very big stones has been found. These stones were later named Trilithon. The length of each of these is 62 ft, height 14 ft, width 12 ft and weight 900 ton. That is, it is 1.5 times heavier than the world’s heaviest aircraft Antonov An-225 Mriya and 10 times bigger than the biggest stones used in the construction of the Pyramid of Giza.
4) Skill
Cutting such huge Trilithon Stones and lifting them 30 feet up was probably done for the first time in human history. Despite such a large size, these stones were somehow transported from Kan to the construction site. Which is about 1.5 kilometers away from here. Apart from this, the journey from Kan to Baalbek is not only upwards due to the mountain but is also very rough. There is no evidence that a straight path was made for the transport of Trilithon Stones in the ancient times. Which would have made it easier to pull the stones. How would the stones have been lifted up after being delivered. This is also a question.
The accuracy with which these stones were cut and joined is really an extraordinary task. Especially for that era when modern machinery was not even imagined. Because there is not even a paper’s distance between them. If we look at Roman structures, their focus was on beauty. They wanted to show their construction skills to the world. But in contrast, Trilithons were not kept here to be seen but to be buried. After seeing this, a question comes to mind that if a civilization accomplishes such a great feat, then why would it hide it.
3) Roman Empire
Ancient Romans are known for keeping records of their every skill. But there is no mention of these Trilithons anywhere in the Roman documents. This shows that the construction of this site was not completely done by the Ancient Romans, rather they built their temple on the ready-made foundation. Apart from this, according to historians, the biggest crane that the Romans had could lift only 60 tons of weight. Due to which it is impossible for them to lift these 900 ton Trilithon Stones.
The Romans used to drill a special shaped hole in the middle of the stones they lifted with the crane. Which is called Lewis Holes. But no such holes are present in the Trilithon Stones. This proves that if the Romans did not do this work then who did it with such mastery. Who built the actual foundation of the Temple of Jupiter?
2) Pregnant Women Stone
Now let’s come to the place from where Trilithon Stones were actually brought. The Baalbek’s mine is about 1.5 km away from the Temple of Jupiter and it is a limestone mine. Some half-cut stones are still present here. This is more surprising because it are bigger than the stones used in the Temple of Jupiter and the complex. There is a stone named pregnant women on this mine. Which is 68 feet long, 14 feet high and 14 feet thick. According to the area, its weight has been calculated to be 1200 tons.
This stone is lying at an angle. While its lower part is still attached to the stone of the mine. Whoever cut it in this shape did not get a chance to separate its lower part and perhaps they had to leave this work in the middle. Otherwise, perhaps this stone would also have been seen on the side of the Temple of Jupiter today. The same marks are present on the bottom of this stone even today which are seen on other stones of Temple of Jupiter.
A model of Pregnant Women Stone has been placed in Jungfrau Park of Switzerland. Around which models of some modern cranes have been placed. The purpose of showing this is that if the Pregnant Women Stone has to be lifted even in today’s era, then about 20 cranes together can do this work. That too only when there is space of 50-60 feet around the stone to place the cranes. The Pregnant Women Stone was half buried inside the ground. But in 2014, when a team of archaeologists investigated here, it was found that even inside the ground, it was separate from the ear.
Only the bottom of this block is still attached to the ear. That is, due to lying like this for thousands of years, the layer of soil had buried it inside the ground. Scientists believe that just 1 inch of soil layer takes approximately 80 to 100 years to accumulate. Pregnant Women Stone is buried approximately 10 feet inside the ground. That is, 120 inches. So if 1 inch is equal to 80 years, then it will take 9600 years for 120 inches to accumulate. Approximately 10000 years. It is very difficult to imagine and understand that humans were capable of doing such a challenging task so long ago in the Stone Age.
1) Civilization
Trilithon Stones remain a mystery for today’s scientists, engineers and archaeologists. The reason for this is that the methods used to cut, transport and place them at the right place are not possible for any famous ancient civilization or even for today’s builders. Trilithon Stones indicate ancient civilization. The era when humans were very tall and their bodies were as strong as gods.
Various religious books like Quran, Bible and Hindi Scriptures also mention such people who were very tall and strong. They had such powers which super humans have in fiction movies. They have been given different names in various books. As in Quran they have been called Aad and Thamud. Whereas in Bible they have been called Nephilim. At some places their height has been mentioned as 450 feet and at some places up to 100 feet. For those civilizations perhaps lifting the Trilithon Stones was not such a difficult task.
