This is an I-Heart podcast.

Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on IHeart Radio.

Welcome back, George Norrie, along with Jack Bylick, whose book is called Lost in Time.

Jack, you were talking about the terracotta warriors, the clay warriors and their swords.

Go ahead and finish that.

Yeah, yeah, we were talking about Emperor

Quinn in 210 BC. So he had made swords that were made out of, they had chromium in him.

Well, we didn't learn how to make chrome until the 1800s where we used it in manufacturing.

But that's not what's really interesting about this emperor.

The emperor built a mausoleum where he was buried and it was said, it's been written,

that this mausoleum is booby-trapped.

And the archaeologists there will not open that mausoleum,

because they know, number one, this guy was really sharp,

and he built, they say a lake of mercury around this and and

they said also it's booby trap so whatever technology he had it keeps

everybody here at bay so he's an interesting man.

Could it be a guillotine when you open the bay door or something like that.

I was thinking of Raiders of the Lost Ark or something, you know, a big rolling ball or who knows?

How far back do you think this intelligence goes?

Yeah, wow, that's a great question.

Well, you know, we just have so few records that go back beyond, oh, even 3,000 BC.

You know, there's so little written down that we have access to, that, you know, that's about as far back as we go.
