Everyone is missing the obvious regarding this object's purpose. a) it is incased in rock b) it is old c) ancient civilizations built several objects (ie:pyramids) that seem impossible to build. this is obviously an early prototype of a rock levitator. The later versions were MUCH larger and used to heft the stones at stonehendge, the pyramids, etc. why didn't anyone see this??? What is wrong with all of you people?
