In my opinion, the most compelling out-of-place artifact is our system of measuring time and mathematics, which appears to be based on the pre-flood year of 360 days of 12, 30-day months. We use 360 degrees in a circle. One degree was the distance the stars moved in one night. The English mile is exactly 3,600 Hebrew cubits. The Earth is nearly exactly 24,000 miles around the equator, one thousand miles for each 1-hour time zone. The Sumerians used a unit of measure very close to the meter, which seems to have been based on measuring the polar circumference of the earth. The more you dig, the deeper the rabbit hole goes.
Much of his research involves how the Egyptians made the pyramids of Giza and there are YouTube videos of him making large blocks using the same materials they had access to.
Welcome, Chris! Yes, I am familiar with the work of Joseph Davidovits. Marcell Foti has been doing ongoing experiments based on Davidovits' theory and has found ways to create natron and water glass at fairly low temperatures, which can be used to cast the granite blocks.
This is incredible, Ken! I will say that there are 5-axis CNC machines with articulated cutting heads that should be able to do this. These are used for tasks like porting cylinder heads and the cutting head can pivot by up to 60 degrees inside the chamber. Having said that, this is a specialized, modern computer controlled tool and will leave tool marks even if microscopic. So what I would like to know about these jars are “are there tool marks inside?” If there are no tool marks I’m thinking something like a water jet, laser, or maybe something ultrasonic was used to do the cutting. Extremely high tech stuff!
This is so cool! I hadn’t heard of these jars before, and here I thought I’d heard of all the most interesting OOParts!
So now I’m curious, what would you consider the most compelling out of place artifact of all?

Hi Ken! I'm a new subscriber and recently found your work! Have you heard of Joseph Davidovits and geopolymers? He's written several interesting books on the subject, and in one of them he describes how the Egyptians made stone vases/jars with geopolymer cements: https://www.geopolymer.org/library/archaeological-papers/c-making-cements-with-plant-extracts/

Thanks again for all your great work!

Thanks! I'll have to check it out!

He has done the most work to bring attention to this and to get real experts to look at these vessels, to include laser scans.
