Matthew LaCroix Built a Megalith Database

Matt LaCroix joins Matt Barone to walk through years of research culminating in two newly created databases, and the broader thesis that a lost, highly advanced knowledge system underlies every esoteric and religious tradition that followed it.His path into this field began with pioneers including Robert Schoch, John Anthony West, Robert Bauval, Graham Hancock, and Randall Carlson, and deepened through his own close working relationship with Schoch on an in-progress documentary. Recognising the absence of any rigorous, criteria-based catalogue for anomalous ancient sites, Matt created the Lost Civilisations Database, applying strict scientific criteria developed alongside researchers including Brien Foerster, focused specifically on stone hardness, masonry precision, and engineering sophistication inconsistent with the tools available during any known historical period. He cites Baalbek in Lebanon, officially credited to Roman builders despite megalithic foundation stones exceeding 1,300 tons, ranking it the second largest megalithic site in the world behind China, as a clear example of a signature that was never replicated again anywhere in the Roman world.The chronology problem runs deepest at Giza's Sphinx enclosure, where Robert Schoch identified water erosion within minutes of his 1990s investigation, a finding still unaccepted because dynastic Egypt received no rainfall, meaning the erosion evidence forces a reconsideration of the Sphinx's actual age and the astronomical alignments associated with it, a chronological shift Matt believes the academic establishment resists because it would undermine decades of built institutional consensus. That question led him, alongside Schoch, archaeologists, and sacred geometry researcher Robert Edward Grant, to trace a set of specific, repeated symbols back to an origin point in eastern Turkey's Van region, mapped globally into a second database, the Ancient Code Database, which he believes decodes a lost, unified knowledge system of natural law, predating organised religion, describing the relationship between the physical and metaphysical worlds and the true scale of human significance within it. He is also launching a new podcast, the Lost Civilisations Podcast, with engineer collaborator Chris.CHAPTERS00:45 Introduction: Matt LaCroix and his background01:25 The pioneers: Schoch, West, Bauval, Hancock, and Carlson03:51 Introducing the Lost Civilisations Database04:29 Brien Foerster and the criteria behind the LCD08:30 Azimuths, alignments, and why tool sophistication is the key criteria09:37 Announcing the Lost Civilisations Podcast11:17 The Great Pyramid: 2.5 million blocks and impossible engineering11:35 Connecting the dots: what happens when scattered data comes together13:07 Baalbek: the second largest megalithic site in the world15:02 The Sphinx enclosure and Robert Schoch's water erosion discovery17:47 Introducing the Ancient Code Database and the Van region origin point21:20 A lost knowledge system: natural law before religion22:19 Why Gobekli Tepe is comfortable and advanced masonry is not26:31 Closing thoughtsGUESTSMatt LaCroix — @MatthewLaCroix Ancient Code Database - https://thestageoftime.com/acd-iLost Civilization Database - https://thestageoftime.com/lcd-iABOUTTTN News covers the cosmic history that shaped this planet and the deep human past still buried in the ground.Stock Footage Credits: https://www.pond5.com/artist/ancient_aerialsFOLLOW TTN NEWS[https://www.facebook.com/cosmicsummit] · [https://x.com/Cosmicsummitx] · [https://www.instagram.com/cosmic.summit/] · [https://thetitan.network/]#TTNNews #MattLaCroix #LostCivilizationsDatabase #AncientCodeDatabase #RobertSchoch #Baalbek #GreatSphinx #MattBarone #GobekliTepe
