		<description>The Druids weren&#039;t too savage to build Stonehenge; but they were many, many years too late.  Actually the site was probably built up in three different periods by three different ancient tribes (humans, not aliens), starting something like 5,000 years ago.</description>

		<description>Totally with Erica. Your conclusions are bias Brian in my opinion. I imagine you would have been angry to hear long ago that the world was not flat. But its not flat. And what once may seem absurd is later proven correct. We can learn nothing if we don&#039;t learn to have an open mind to possibility.</description>

		<description>In the first place, the only logical conclusion of all this, is that one must honestly consider all aspects prior to a conclusion. Puma Punku is one such aspect that today&#039;s engineers, and machinists alike admit they cannot possibly build anything on this scale to this precision! Also the precision of the pyramids is another impossible accomplishment by our modern technology. Another is the sheered mountain tops in Nasca Peru, with nothing of the debris anywhere around! So unless you have information that is fact to explain these, not speculation, but actual fact, that cave men, or early humans built these with stone tools, which is total BS if we can&#039;t even do it today, with our computers, CNC machines, and heavy equipment, and Chinook Helicopters, then either admit your wrong, or figure it out and give the facts! Either mankind had an earlier advanced civilization around the world, far more advanced than us today, and was totally annhilated, or ancient aliens came here and did these things. It is impossible for humans to build anything on these great scales with simple tools. That is from prestigious Architects, engineers, and machinists, who are specialists in their fields! So if scientist can&#039;t come up with the truth, maybe the engineers can! </description>

		<description>um....I have some questions.  
 
First off, when viewing any number of the pictures of the Nazca lines (not the animals but the actual Lines and &quot;landing strips&quot;) you can see that not only are they just big lines and triangles but have, from aerial view, symmetry, the question being, with the technology of around 2,000 years ago how was this done?  
 
branching from that I must also ask, just because they had the time, why do it? why those specific animals? and then why are these animals dis-proportioned and not all native to the area or some even to the continent? being that the spider depicted was found to be of a certain genus native to the deep Amazon. 
 
 Also, to bring up the acknowledgment that they did it to impress, how could they impress anyone, if those people had no place high enough to view them from? If they did and I&#039;m just unaware of this area please someone let me know.  
 
And if it was simply done for artistic value, why would they make something they could never look at? 
 
To me it is not so much that I&#039;m saying that the other cultures where not SMART enough, but that from what archeologists have found, should not have had the Technology available to them to make the things they did.  
 
You really except the Idea that the Egyptians built the pyramids in one pharaohs life time? A life time that consisted of a mere 30-40 years, with an occasional 60 year old? and they go even farther to tell us that this was done in four-month shifts of 100,000 men? besides that some speculate that 2.6 million blocks might have been used (with the idea that it was not hallow except for the few chambers) &quot;Yet constructing this pyramid in a time of 67 years entails that two-hundred thirty tonnes of limestone or granite were laid each day. This means that, on average, a hundred times every single day more than two tonnes of stone would have been precisely put in place. As each block has been carefully located next to its neighbors, very often with hairline precision, this entails that only nine minutes was allowed to place each block in an average fifteen hour working day. Nine minutes per each block of stone with little or no mechanical assistance, just levers and brute strength. This is surely quite impossible, even ten times that figure at 90 minutes per block is hard to credit.&quot;---John Tatler  
 
As far I can see even Masa Lee and lysambre are talking about information that has been disproved and/or was already seen as irrelevant. 
 
Masa Lee, your theories and &quot;Scientific Proof&quot; are all clearly derived from T.v. show bits and Inconclusive knowledge and research, IF you researched AT ALL, your findings are inconclusive. The Hopi were not the only ones to elongate there skulls, and anyway, what do you hope to prove by that small mention? 
 
lysambre, the why is based on stories with no proof, the how has theories (some tested) that have basically disproved themselves, so the only thing &quot;they&quot; really know is the who. Oh and who are &quot;They&quot; anyway? 
 
as far as I&#039;m concerned &quot;Brian&quot; your research is fine but your conclusions are based on bias, thus I must say its hard to take you very seriously, when you don&#039;t even look at the evidence or theories presented from both sides as speculation. 
 
after all it is all speculation and guess work, we can&#039;t know for sure that any of it is true. That&#039;s what science is, guess work. :) </description>

Evidence is all around us you ignorant fool. 
 
King Tut&#039;s father, Pharaoh Akhenaten was believed to be descended from their &quot;Gods&quot; his head, and that of his sons, were elongated; pear shaped yet humanoid eyes. Akhenaten&#039;s tomb was found and yes the evidence shows. 
 
Akhenaten was the same pharaoh who changed their religious beliefs into &quot;ONE GOD&quot;. When King Tut, his son took over, they swiftly changed back to their multiple gods. 
 
If you knew anything about genetics and the &quot;Genetic Junk&quot; you&#039;d realize Extraterrestrials served as a Monolith to advance humans to the next stage. 
 
The Three Great Pyramids &quot;air shafts&quot; astronomically align with the constellation of Orion AND the cluster of stars known as &quot;Sirius&quot; during that time period. They already knew of the so called &quot;Birth or Beginning Stars&quot; 
 
At the same time the Hopi, who purposely elongate their cranium, knew of &quot;Sirius B&quot; and believed God&#039;s flew down from the sky in craft. They knew Sirius B could not be seen by the human eye from it being hidden by a bigger star.  
 
All this, before &quot;Modern&quot; astronomers were aware of all of this. 
 
The Sumerians believed in an, actually translated &quot;Advanced Extraterrestrial Race&quot; descended from the sky in boats or ships. 
 
The oldest gold and mineral mine is known to be 150,000 years old, the next oldest? ;) 
Gold is one of THE BEST electronic conductors in the world. Quartz (Which holds Tb&#039;s of HD), Okere, Phosphorus, etc, etc also has an invaluable use in future electronics. 
 
Need I go on about the Gods of Mayans, Inca, Native Americans? They have found ancient gold and mineral mines in South America AS WELL. ;) Let&#039;s not forget Nazca with its numerous holes, some expand deep underground. 
 
Look, I&#039;m just an Game Arts major trying to make it through college.  
 
I have a passion for Game Development, but my mind is stronger for more. 
 
Honestly, I want to work deep within the U.S GOV. I need to be allied and involved. I believe there is so much more than one might think to be hidden from the public eye. 
 
Perhaps we have nothing to offer that race of Aliens, which we ourselves our Aliens. Perhaps they&#039;d observe us? Oh, but what we&#039;d figure out with Alien tech... work our way back, &quot;Reverse Engineer&quot; figure it out, slowly put it to use within the public, yet they would be so far ahead. 
 
Thank you for your time. 
Sincerely and in all honesty,

		<description>When you say &quot;more research&quot; I think you actually mean wrapping around speculations and taking things out of context based on the modern phenomenons and understanding of the world even though the past may be far more different than we expect.

		<description>Realism is a subjective term.  
 
The entire Ancient Astronaut theory is just revisionism based on the modern phenomenon of Aliens/UFOs.

		<description>I have to disagree with you. 
I&#039;m quite partial to this theory, so therefore I believe in it, and think it&#039;s quite plausible. Yeah, so maybe they did have a big imagination and wanted to draw aliens and make big rock sculptures to impress their friends. We do that too. We create art pieces dragons and mythical creatures and maybe sometime in the far future, people find those things we made and think &quot;Wow, did aliens tell these dumb people about dragons?&quot; 
But still, I think it&#039;s realistic that some extraterrestrials helped out some ancient people with some things. 
I mean really people. The universe is huge. Some advanced alien could have passed by our pretty planet and decided to help humans out a bit. 
 
Oh yeah, I&#039;m pro-evolution! Yay </description>

I&#039;m quite partial to this theory, so therefore I believe in it, and think it&#039;s quite plausible. Yeah, so maybe they did have a big imagination and wanted to draw aliens and make big rock sculptures to impress their friends. We do that too. We create art pieces dragons and mythical creatures and maybe sometime in the far future, people find those things we made and think &quot;Wow, did aliens tell these dumb people about dragons?&quot;<br />
But still, I think it&#039;s realistic that some extraterrestrials helped out some ancient people with some things.<br />
I mean really people. The universe is huge. Some advanced alien could have passed by our pretty planet and decided to help humans out a bit. </p>
<p>Oh yeah, I&#039;m pro-evolution! Yay</p>

		<description>this is just an insane observation. its just that the most creative people or civilizations are the one that are in isolation. i guess that the boredom and the sickness of seeing their kins over and over again in a period of longggggggggggggg time made them ingenious enough to try to discover and made new things by trying to amuse themselves and getting away from that place that they became so creative enough to make these stuff that we see incridible today. 
just a thought:D </description>

		<description>I hate to be a jerk, but water above sea level boils *faster* than normal, not slower.  So it shouldn&#039;t &quot;test your patience.&quot;  RETARD!  (Just kidding! ;)</description>

		<description>Ditto to what Iysambre said. There was an excellent episode of Nova a few years back that gave a pretty thorough explanation of Easter Island history.</description>

		<description>On that last point about the Easter Island heads, they have a pretty good idea of why, who and how, and it doesn&#039;t even include aliens ;)

But yeah, I mostly think that (some) Humans have been smart and creative since the begining, otherwise they wouldn&#039;t have survived that long anyway.</description>

		<description>Informative and amusing as ever, &lt;b&gt;Brian&lt;/b&gt;.

Even though this very conceit is the foundation of one of my favorite sci-fi franchises (&lt;i&gt;Stargate&lt;/i&gt;, natch), I know that it&#039;s a fictional storytelling device.  It requires some suspension of disbelief, because I much prefer the &lt;i&gt;Red Dwarf&lt;/i&gt; explanation for incredible ancient construction projects like the pyramids: they had lots of slaves and &quot;massive, massive whips.&quot;  Or at least a lot of dedicated builders.

The way I see it, mankind has always had the urge to create something to last the test of time.  Be it Stonehenge, Machu Pichu, or a wall of graffiti, we want something that says, &quot;We were here.&quot;  We want to impress ourselves, each other, and the generations to come.  We don&#039;t need alien assistance for that.  All it takes is the desire to be remembered.  We&#039;ve got that all on our own.</description>
