EXCLUSIVE A new documentary about Mayan civilization will provide evidence of extraterrestrial contact with the ancient culture, according to a Mexican government official and the film's producer. "Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and Beyond," currently in production, will claim the Mayans had contact with extraterrestrials, producer Raul Julia-Levy revealed to TheWrap. "Mexico will release codices, artifacts and significant documents with evidence of Mayan and extraterrestrial contact, and all of their information will be corroborated by archaeologists," said Julia-Levy, son of actor Raul Julia.

. Why not, for the sake of intellectual discourse, assume for a moment, the artifacts are in deed real.

How about the one with the planets on it? The Mayans just made up those rings around Saturn. I am not really sure why this whole ancient aliens were in our past is so hard to grasp for some people. Is it fear of something we do not understand?

Interesting find. I wouldnt consider this proof, although its highly compelling if it is authentic. Has the material been carbondated? I would consider it proof that there has been an outside influence from an unkown faction (Aliens, Timetravelers, unrecorded human society), if technological gizmos dating back to the time of the Mayans would be found.

Because if they have invented technology to come to Earth, then they have also invented 'science.' If they have science, then we have a common language to work with. From there, we can make stabs at figuring out their wants and desires.

Timetravelers? Aliens?
They just came in contact with Chinese who wandered across the ice, and the Nordic seafarers that sailed across for decades.
Both explain the slanted eyes, and hat shapes ...
Nothing spectacular here, move along.

Wow another thread full of people showing of their credentials and flaming people that have an open mind. So called "experts on paper" talking about a lot of mumbo jumbo only to discover later that most of these artifacts are fake.
FAIL

Chapter Six of Carl Sagan's "Broca's Brain" White Dwarfs and Little Green Men:
In my mind's eye I picture a Gallic visitor to the Dogon people, in what was then French West Africa, in the early part of (19th) century. He may have been a diplomat, explorer, an adventurer or an early anthropologist.
Carl goes on to imagine this man telling the Dogon about our own astronomical "myths." How easy it would have been for the Dogon to assimilate this received knowledge and wrap their own cultural entanglements around it. One does not have to believe that aliens from across the Cosmos came and told just these people all about Saturn's rings and Sirius A and B, let alone visited the Mayans to tell them how to build pyramids---but not how to create electricity, the germ theory of disease, or even how to stop killing each other in pointless religious rituals.

I want to know more about these objects, where are they? What's their story etc etc.
Who owns them etc.edit on 15-3-2012 by WatchRider because: (no reason given)
