Title is misleading. The glass was doped, that does not actually make it nanotechnology. They were doping glass long before this cup. Still cool, just not nano cool.

Mortar and pestle to make gold and silver particles at 50 nanometres in diameter? Sure thing bro.

Re: Nanotechnology Used In Ancient Rome - Scientists Puzzled
When there are deities involved with electricity...
When there are ginormous temples that are built for the gods to arrive...
When the columns of those temples are designed as a light beam from the sky down to the earth...
When they talk about the gods and their magic (magnetics)...
When they paint their houses in certain patterns...

Oh yeah they have the human capability to make nanotechnology. Really, the Romans were in better shape than us today considering the monuments and empire spread and just the memories and impressions. If we can do it, they could have done it, and I think they even skipped the stuff that we tried and realized it was not good for us. They were eco friendly tech types.

That's something to the tune of a looking glass. Except there was a better name of it.

The thing about nanotech chemicals is that they burn up fast in air so they don't stay around for archaeologists to discover.

When you get roman catholics who believe that the wine actually changes into blood ...how do you think they picked up that idea?

They had nanotech in all the gigantic ancient civilizations. It's a physical requirement before achieving the technology of the gods. maybe it was called sorcery, I don't know.

"A Roman goblet could be an 1,600-year-old example of nanotechnology, according to experts. The mysterious Lycurgus Cup is made of dichroic glass and appears green when lit from the front and turns bright red when a light is shone on it from behind.

The chalice, which is on display at The British Museum, London, uses similar techniques to modern nanotechnology - the manipulation of materials on an atomic and molecular scale - which scientists believe could be used for everything from diagnosing diseases to identifying bioharzards at airports.

Scientists only solved the mystery of the color-changing chalice in 1990, after being baffled by its behavior for decades, Smithsonian Magazine reported.


After putting broken fragments of glass under a microscope, scientists found the Romans had impregnated it with particles of sliver and gold, which they ground down to tiny proportions - around 50 nanometres in diameter - a thousand times smaller than a grain of salt.

The precise amount of metals has lead experts to hail the Romans as 'nanotechnology pioneers' who really knew what they were doing. Archaeologist Ian Freestone, of University College London, who researched the cup and its unusual optical properties, called its construction an 'amazing feat'.

The cup appears to change color as when light hits it as the flecks of metals' electrons vibrate in ways that seem to change the color, depending on where the observer is looking at it. The chalice was used to hold drink on special occasions and experts believe that when it was filled, the behavior of the vibrating electrons changed, as well as it's color."

Rome is where the ancient books of this world are held hostage away from the public eyes.

As the Romans invaded the lands, they collected all artifacts, writings, and teachings of those they raided.

The Vatican library holds the true history of this world.

History was stolen and rewritten here.

2 See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

4 To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.

6 And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee;

7 The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle,

8 And the table and his furniture, and the pure candlestick with all his furniture, and the altar of incense,

9 And the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver and his foot,

10 And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office,

11 And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.

plus: pagans usually infiltrate and corrupt human systems like govt. and religion… and basically do mash-ups of culture that usually end in some grandiose occult edifice; vatican means "divining serpent"

on the other hand, one of the most profound reasons to believe in the Bible narrative is not that wonderful buildings and dogma…BUT that it was copied into around 500 languages before 300 AD… Rome was still persecuting Christians when the New Testament of 1599 Geneva Bible was being written…

and scholars can access and cross-reference it from thousands of letters and original manuscripts…

see: The Nestorian Stele: there was a Christian church in every county of China by 700 AD and churches throughout all of Asia.

God gave the Gift of Discernment of Spirits for a reason. Not every thing that occurs during worship is of the Lord. Some time strange fire is placed upon the alter.

Observe what happens in a Charismatic worship service when a Kundalini Awakening occurs. It is definitely not the Holy Spirit.


And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.

20 And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.

Re: Nanotechnology Used In Ancient Rome - Scientists Puzzled
The one thing I would not call the Rome Empire is eco friendly.

They would cut down every tree in their path, seem to have rubbed off on other culture who had links to them. Take a Roman to the forest, they would panic, that is what was said, makes sense. They would clear land for their ships, marches where they carried think over ground, they like to carry things by water, and if a tree was there it was gone.

Not, a good group, no matter what they could do with technology, no more than the ones now, who do not care what happens or have no thoughts, about the what they are doing.

Romans Empire was a brutal monstrous group. They murdered people in the worse fashion they could come up with, including, boiling people in oil. No, them and their god, Ishtar, Juno, Zeus, any and all personal god, but Ishtar killed babies. They love crucifying people as example for others, you only had to disagree, and on a cross you would hang, that was a way to control people.
A nasa study says due to aliens. we never can go back to thee moon
Now we have some who are using other means, but it is similar to the Rome Empire.

Gee, golly, I wonder why?


LYKOURGOS (or Lycurgus) was an impious king of the Edonians of Thrake who attacked Dionysos when the god was travelling through his land instructing men in the art of winemaking or, in another version of the tale, while the god was still a child in the care of the Nymphs of Mount Nysa. As the troupe fled, Lykourgos struck down the god's nurse Ambrosia with his axe The rest dived into the sea where they were given refuge by the goddess Thetis.

As punishment for his crime, Lykourgos was inflicted with madness and in this crazed state slew his wife and sons. His own death followed quickly after:--some say that he chopped off his own feet with an axe before killing himself; others that he was struck blind and being scorned by all died in destitution; or that he was torn apart by his own horses; or devoured by the panthers of the god; or wrapped in strangling vines and despatched to Haides for eternal torment.

Lykourgos' fate was not unique--Pentheus, Orpheus, the Proitides and the Minyades were also suffered severe punishment for scorning the god.

Bolstering the claim of the fire during 48 B.C. , in the 4th century both the pagan historian Ammianus and the Christian historian Orosius wrote that the Bibliotheca Alexandrina had been destroyed by Caesar's fire. However, Florus and Lucan claim that the flames Caesar set burned only the fleet and some "houses near the sea". Years after Caesar's campaign in Alexandria, the Greek geographer Strabo claimed to have worked in the Alexandrian Library.
The library seems to have continued in existence to some degree until its contents were largely lost during the taking of the city by the Emperor Aurelian (AD 270–275), who was suppressing a revolt by Queen Zenobia of Palmyra. During the course of the fighting, the areas of the city in which the main library was located were damaged. Some sources claim that the smaller library located at the Serapeum survived, though Ammianus Marcellinus wrote of the library in the Serapeum temple as a thing of the past, destroyed by Aurelian after converting to christianism...
Paganism and any text related (blood circulation, lenses, magnetism, not geocentric astronomy, Hydraulics) were made illegal by an edict of the Emperor Theodosius I in AD 391. The temples of Alexandria were closed by Patriarch Theophilus of Alexandria in AD 391. The historian Socrates of Constantinople describes that all pagan temples in Alexandria were destroyed, including the Serapeum. Since the Serapeum housed a part of the Great Library, some scholars believe that the remains of the Library of Alexandria were destroyed at this time. However, it is not known how many books were contained in it at the time of destruction, and contemporary scholars do not mention the library directly, if only survived the Serapeum...

I would like to discuss history. However, not with you.

You're a dick.

"Primordial Christians" did not destroy the library.

Every clue points to Rome.

"- It shows a scene from a Greek story, where bad tempered king Lycurgus is being trapped by vines as a punishment for his latest outburst of anger."

It shows a scene from a STORY yet people here seem hell bent to tie it to religion any way they can.

Obsessive.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 64915693


Yes, yes, tie to religion.

Obsessive to you it seems.

Gee, golly, I wonder why?


LYKOURGOS (or Lycurgus) was an impious king of the Edonians of Thrake who attacked Dionysos when the god was travelling through his land instructing men in the art of winemaking or, in another version of the tale, while the god was still a child in the care of the Nymphs of Mount Nysa. As the troupe fled, Lykourgos struck down the god's nurse Ambrosia with his axe The rest dived into the sea where they were given refuge by the goddess Thetis.

As punishment for his crime, Lykourgos was inflicted with madness and in this crazed state slew his wife and sons. His own death followed quickly after:--some say that he chopped off his own feet with an axe before killing himself; others that he was struck blind and being scorned by all died in destitution; or that he was torn apart by his own horses; or devoured by the panthers of the god; or wrapped in strangling vines and despatched to Haides for eternal torment.

Lykourgos' fate was not unique--Pentheus, Orpheus, the Proitides and the Minyades were also suffered severe punishment for scorning the god.

There is an account of Sampson in the bible. He was bound and blinded as well. It an example of the consequences of disobedience and provoking God to anger.

How do they know that the Romans made it?

If so then where are all the other examples?

Tech like this to my mind is from an ancient civilisation who were wiped out in a cataclysm.
