  1. Love that stuff! I know some here don’t really care for Foerster and his analysis but I think he’s onto something.
    I’ve had over 40 years in the construction trades from basic carpentry to millwrighting and the level of workmanship with respect to the stone work is absolutely mindblowing.
    Please don’t tell me slaves with stone hammers were able to quarry and fit those stones to that degree of accuracy because I ain’t buying it.

    1. You forgot the most important thing when preparing stones weighing several tons. Yes the stone hammer is good, we’ll put it next to the wooden mauls and hemp rope,
      Copper chisels. How can you carve up a megalithic structure without your trusty copper chisel? Sheesh!!! Do I have to build the dam thing myself?

    2. That’s how the Egyptian pyramids were built, so your personal incredulity isn’t terribly relevant. Granted they weren’t slaves.

  2. What we do see: very accurately cut and fitted stone walls, exfoliation of the stone, and three different phases of building. What we don’t see: Evidence for fantastical solar flares. To be fair, the external damage appears to be strongest on the south west side of the building, where a setting sun’s solar flares *might* have been strongest. With that said, the whole south being involved seems more likely, if one could believe the ‘massive solar flare that can eat away stone’ theory. I suggest there may be more mundane explanations. If we can prove that the stone was exposed to heat, perhaps some wooden structure on that corner of the building, or even a garbage tip over the escarpment on the southwest side caught fire and burned hot enough to cause the damage. But maybe even more likely is that the stone on that corner is exposed to strong wind, rain, and occasional freezing conditions, due to its exposed position on the edge of the escarpment and wind chill. Repeated soaking and freezing of rock could certainly cause extreme weathering, similar to what is seen here. It may be helpful to remember that Huaytará, although only lying about 13 degrees south of the equator, is also 8,720 feet above sea level.

    1. We truly are a species with amnesia.

      I have been following Randall Carlson, Graham Hancock, John Anthony West (RIP), Robert Bauval, and Robert Schoch for more years than I care to mention.

      These guys are asking the hard questions and positing theories that are based (mostly) in hard science.

      One thing is clear, human history is not the cute little package that mainstream archeology would have you believe. I would also go as far to say that it is about as believable as today’s media.

      When you factor in not only the way the megalithic are constructed, but how the relate to each other via their locations on the planet and their orientation to the cosmic plane, a very different story begins to appear.

      Stoneage farmers didn’t build a scale model of earth with precision that we struggle to duplicate today on the giza plateau, they had help. I believe it was from a civilization that was vastly more advanced that was wiped out by some form of cataclysm (impact event/flood/cme/war)

      This isn’t our first go around, and it certainly isn’t our most intelligent….

  3. Pseudo-science. You can tell archaeological pseudo-science by one glaring fact: They take a local phenomenon, and, for no real reason, extrapolate it into a global one, without presenting any evidence as to why. It seems that the maxim of “extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence” is lost on most people. The fact is, there is no such thing as “mainstream science.” Archeology, physics, etc, are all a patchwork of competing theories, some better than others, but the media presents them as fait accompli. Many seem to like to take some aspect that is not well understood by modern theories, and take that as a reason to throw out the baby and the bathwater, and loudly declaim “The Electric Universe!” or “Intelligent Design!” or “The Great Flood!” or “Chariots of the Gods!”. It sells books to the armchair enthusiasts just fine, but it ain’t science.
