How Old is Tiahuanaco? Is it the 'Cradle of American Man?'

  • Unique amongst ancient megalithic sites, the twin locations of Tiahuanaco and Puma Punku, located high on the Altiplano of Bolivia, represent an enduring mystery for the history of human civilizations. The true age of these ruins has always been a controversial topic, and the man responsible for 50 years of primary excavation and research here, Professor Arthur Posnansky, used a multi-disciplinary approach to conclude that they originated more than 10,000 years ago. Unsurprisingly, this date is dismissed by mainstream archaeology -but just how valid is this dismissal? And what is the evidence behind the claims?
    Years in the making, this video investigates the claims behind the age of these enigmatic locations, and seeks to understand if Tiahuanaco was, as Posnansky termed it, the 'Cradle of American Man.'

    As a Peruvian and fan of history, and after visiting many of these sites myself, I want to thank you for your work. Your open mind towards our Latin American ancient sites is more of what is needed. In my humble opinion many of them are singfinificantly under studied and wrongly dated. I suggest you check other amazing sites such as Sechin, Chavin de Huantar, Casarabe in Bolivia and, most recently, Caral (3000 BC) and Los Morteros (3.500BC).
    Thank you for your work.

      Material evidence gathered at Monte Verde(CHILE) has reshaped the way archaeologists think about the earliest inhabitants of the Americas. Radiocarbon dating has provided a date of 14,800 BP and possibly 33,000 BP, establishing Monte Verde(CHILE) as the oldest-known site of human habitation in the Americas.

    The extreme age Posnansky calculated could originate in the fact that the first observatory was indeed built thousands of years ago and the central parts and alignment indicators were kept as sacred by following, devout generations until the Tiahuanaco we know today was built much later. At that time the alignment indicators were un-aligned of course. I wouldn't be astonished if careful excavations would reveal the remnants of correction measures.

    Aloha Ben,
    In a recent trip to Peru (June 2022) we went visiting the ruins of Pisac, we hired a Inca tourist guide at the site and when we arrived by the megalithic wall I asked him who thought his ancestors such building techniques and he answered “the Tiahuanaco thought the Incas” then when I asked when he said roughly 10 to 13 thousand years ago! I found his answers really compelling 😄

    As with so many of these ancient sites, all I keep thinking is "these are functional." With the exception of the exceptionally ornate temples in India and southeast Asia, most of these sites in Egypt and Peru have such precision in their cuts and form - precision that really only makes sense if there was a function required for it.
    Why are the angles and edges so precise, showing obvious signs of repeatability like with modern construction material manufacturing, and the holes drilled? These looks like doors, or gates, or components of something very large. But they're not adorned with figures of animals, people, or aesthetics - just precise alignments and indications these were meant to function with pieces we can no longer see.

    Cheers Ben. To hear the geological data you gathered, along with he archeological info it does paint a clear picture to me.
    The unfinished works that we find globally such as the unfinished obelisk in Aswan, the Balbek Quarry, and here in Peru, as you pointed out , lead me to think the cataclysm was truely horrific.
    And if sediment could accumulate half way up the Giza pyramids, it’s amazing any of them survived.
    Because I believe a very few did survive and sought refuge with hunter gatherer tribes, and taught them agriculture and astronomy etc.

      And all that we experienced was a not so big flash storm!
      In a cataclysm as we all know, things would be turned into matchsticks pretty quickly! And there have been many of those cataclysms.

    When looking into these subjects two names are widely known as the authority figures. So many people have listened to the two GOATS I am referring too, which is a good thing. These two men with the initials "RC and GH", have opened many eyes to the many discrepancies of mainstream academia, it's almost like a new area of study has seemingly sprouted up, a mini age of enlightenment in a sense.
    My prediction is that if you keep knocking the ball out of the stadium with the quality of your content and the very much appreciated due diligence you have poured into this you will come to mind as the next GOAT alongside RC, GH. The thunder is all yours at this point. And no this isn't a competitive thing and I do not mean to sound as if it were, but you have put so much into this that you deserve way more recognition and I believe you will most definitely get it.

      Thanks Hugh. I don't, despite searching for both his and Riveria's work. Going from reports of other researchers, lecture notes, and interview transcripts (for both of them), as well as the TV special in which he appeared titled 'Mysterious Origins of Man.'. I know Steede backed off on the date (and settled on around 7-8K years old for 'other' reasons, still way older than the orthodox date) but my understanding is the 10,000BC date is the result from analysing the alignment of the structure with our more accurate astronomical information.

    Excellent job as always, Ben. Göbekli Tepe was built around 10,000 BC, Atlantis is said to have sunk to the bottom of the ocean around this time - why not this site? It is interesting that Puma Punku is part of the complex and the puma is the South American equivalent of the lion. The Viracocha at the center of the sun gate looks like he has a mane, and 10,000 BC would have been the dawn of The Age of Leo. What is really neat to think about is the fact that The Patagonian Ice Sheet would have been covered this area for a few millennia prior to the site's construction. A shrine to the sun that warms Earth that was once covered by an ice sheet. Totally neat.

Gorillas "didn't exist" until we "discovered" them. The Coelacanth was "extinct" until it wasn't.

Plato re-iterated multiple times in the telling that Atlantis was a real place. He went out of his way to make sure he hammered that into the readers.
      Gobekli Tepe was discovered not so long ago now. We know for certain that Humans were creating monumental stone architecture at least *SIX Millennia* prior to when we used to think they started building like that.

Otherwise, fascinating stuff, keep it up. PS, the finish on the boxes/sarcophagi in Egypt look a lot like a glaze of some sort. This raises the question of just how and why they did this.
    *Edit* Actually, I'm coming around to the idea that the Azores plateau was Atlantis but two things still need explained: 1) how the plateau dropped 2000m without there being some obvious evidence of this elsewhere, and 2) the lack of any evidence of occupation on the remaining Azores islands apart from the mysterious and missing Corva island statue.

    The Andes mountains were pushed up when the Earth expanded. It does not function under plate tectonics, but rather the Earth physically grew in radius by the crust's fracturing and releasing water, sediment, and magma to the surface as well as inductions of energy that lifted mountain chains.
    I discuss this in depth in my video titled, Ancient Dwarka: The Secrets of Mount Girnar (and the totality of my research). I would appreciate your consideration of this, as it would pertain to Tiahuanaco undoubtedly. I come at the study of this all as a chemical engineer by education, a patent examiner there after, and the true discoverer of the theory of everything in 2014 which I have been working on since. I speak honestly and this makes people highly unlikely to acknowledge the merit of what I am pointing to.

    Great informative video! By using the change in the position of the solstice sunrise and sunset, Posnansky calculated what the Earth’s tilt was when the temple was built and thus the age of its construction, 15,000 BC. I question the reliability of this approach since the same forces that produced the marked titling and uplift of the plain could conceivably have produced a slight twisting of the site, affecting where the solstice sun would rise and set. Yet either way produces a date far earlier than the guardians of archaeological orthodoxy are willing to admit.
