    I was there in 2018 and went to that museum and they had a fascination with a catfish god and another stone sculpture looked like a salamander. There was a sculpture in that museum of a fish with a kitty cat head, therefore, a catfish. They have one bus from Cusco to Puno in southern Peru which stops along the way to these different archaeological sites. It was quite interesting, but I had no idea how vast that site at Pukara was. And that drone footage by Hugh was pretty cool. I could spend a whole vacation just traveling around southern Peru and Bolivia. Even in Cusco we had a new driver in 2019, who took us to places even I had never heard of. For example, Quenko Chico near Cusco is exactly like a mini Sachsayhuaman. Same big giant stones only the site is very small and its free to get in. I like Hugh Newman's work, especially the giants of ancient USA.

How is it possible that such distinct, unusual zoomorphic megaliths developed entirely independent from each other ?...the same question applies to the polygonal stonework we in various parts of the world...peace to ya.

  • @ledacedar6253

    Brilliant, and despite watching plenty of Brien Forester's videos this shows way more of the neolithic site here at Tiwanaku. Yes, definitely older as in 3,000 BC to 8,00 BC potentially, I believe though I am simply guessing.

  • @TonyTrupp
    @TonyTrupp 2 года назад

    According to radiocarbon dating this culture is from around 1800 BC through roughly 400AD. For those trying to make links to Gobekli Tepe, you may want to keep in mind that site in turkey is from around 9500-8000 BC. Ignoring the atlantic ocean between them, that is also a massive gap in time, so almost no chance that a related culture was behind the carving both. Any similarities you’re seeing is likely going to be your own mind attempting to find patterns with things you have already seen. A lot of old stone carvings just looks similar, where various primitive cultures carved zoomorphic polytheistic deities.

      This evidence of animal reliefs that we barley recognise today strongly points at dates in pre-history. I believe there are reliefs of elephant like creatures at Tiahuanico. The last known similar species died out there around 11-12000 years ago!

      That's kind of what I thought. It looks like a water retention pond. The way the stairs are done going down into it seem much like how we do pools and other water gathering entryways. A couple stairs close together then it flattens off for a couple feet. Plus the big cut coming out of the center of it going down the center of the hill clearly shows that water flowed there purposely. There's no other reason for that channel. Other places in the region show the same ability of moving water throughout a complex.

    It doesn’t stand to reason that whatever they were using to cut stone was not something huge that needed multiple people to lug everywhere. This was a device or a technique which could be utilized by one or two people. I think about this mystery every single day.
