Well you need to think in terms of what man would do using simple tools, and digging/moving dirt is about as simple as it gets.
So why build such complicated structures that mirror the complicated nature of our universe?

Well, the sites in Peru, from the limited info I possess now... are mosly elevated to some high degree.
Yes, I understand we have cranes that can lift these rocks NOW. And even now, those cranes that we have today will not be making any trip to any of these places. Just not doable.
So, I still contend.. whoever build with the large blocks and items... were NOT the Inca's, Myans etc that we know today. The history just doesn't add up-yet.
I believe those peoples, just like Egyptians, came upon the sites (destroyed-such as in the OP video or mostly intact, like the GIZA structures. They then expaned or incoporated them into their life styles.

You can beg to differ... that is your choice. I choose to believe the plausible not the improbable.
Modern human craniums have been around for at least 150,000 yrs. We only have a decent grasp of the last 5,000 yrs of that history. It's more likely and probable that many ancient civilizations have risen and fallen in that 145,000 yr span than it is to think that ETs came to visit. Regardless of how much you beg...

What do you mean, "we?" You may not know much about them, but there are plenty of people who do. And if that pisses you off, then maybe you should educate yourself.

It looks like to me that the people we know who lived there came upon the ruins of a great building/city.
The finders appeared to have built on and around the left over/remains. Hence the small bricks/stones etc.
I can't wait to go there and see for myself..

But also note the skulls are far more heavy then normal skulls and of course bigger, if just binding, why more heavy?
At least from my understanding, sorry maybe a bit OT, they are doing DNA testing right now, maybe we get some anwer then. Maybe.. I don't think some people (in power&for religious ways) would like an answer anyways. At least they try to get the government out of it, so maybe some hope...
They are found in Peru, they still find new skulls today.

And the Olmecs and other people in the region were always trying to gain favor of the Gods.
In various ways.
Like this for instance...
upload.wikimedia.org...
So the people knew they looked different from the Gods. And in this case the Olmecs, who I believe later became the Chinese, wanted to look more like the Gods. So they tried different things including mating with animals, to try to look different.

It's improbable for many reasons; sheer distance between stars being one, the fact that it has never been proven ETs have visited here is another, compatabilty with Earth's environment, etc...
I'm not saying that life doesn't exist on other worlds. I'm not saying that intelliegent life doesn't exist either.
The probabilty that ETs came to visit here is less than the probability that humans developed advanced technologies which enabled them to develop advanced civilizations. That's just the way it is.
You may have seen that program that was on a few years ago that delt with how long it would take for all traces of mankind to disappear if we suddenly left the planet or died off. I think the conclusion was that all traces would disappear after about 10,000 years or so. That's not very long considering the amount of time modern humans have been around.
The nearest planet discovered which might be capable of supporting life is 22 light years away. Travelling at the speed of light, 186,282 miles per second it would take 22 years to get here from there. Our fastest space vehicle travels at about 36,373 mph. Which brings to mind another improbabilty; any ET civilization capable of travelling at those speeds would hardly be interested in us....
I get it, but I also see the similarities in argument. We can't comprehend how ET's would have gotten here or why so they must not have come. Its the same as how I can't comprehend how humans did it, so they must not have done it. If all traces are eradicated after 10,000 years, then why are we seeing these structures. As we have advanced we have found easier and less expensive ways to construct, and as a result, the buildings don't last as long. These structures on the otherhand have lasted, and don't seem to match up with our timeline. We're smarter and have advanced technology but we're still playing with stones? Makes more sense to me, that the "tool' were kind of just dropped off, and we played with them a bit.

The secret to gravity is this; In order to stop magnetism from affecting you, you would have to completely block it out. So the real question is how do you block all magnetism from affecting your surroundings? If someone can figure that out, they figured out anti-gravity. So far we know that Gold and other few materials posses the ability to block out magnetism, but the earth still produces what they call magnetism on non-ferrous metals. So GOLD is still affected. That brings back how do you stop all magnetism from affecting your surroundings? So far no one has been able to do it.
