Marrakesh: Morocco witnessed a devastating earthquake two days ago, resulting in casualties surpassing two thousand, while hundreds remain injured.

The catastrophe has left buildings in ruins, and rescue and relief efforts are ongoing.

In the wake of this sudden calamity, videos and images have begun to surface, with one particular video capturing the attention of many.

Astonishingly, they have been observable for thousands of years, with their first reported appearance dating back to 89 BC.
