As opposed to arguing point for point with snippet answers and questions down to the lowest denominator, please, as opposed to arguing against people that are attempting to provide a reasonable answer, how about you prove the existence of aliens?
If you can prove the existence of aliens, then, all this picky juvenile bickering can stop.
Ok lets reverse this.....because this is why there is bickering......you prove that there isn't aliens.....do you see the conundrum there ....Really?

Also didn't read this thread to long. One thing I believe you must realize is being up there the air is very thin this location would be hard for any Human Being to survive in........... but as for Aliens even though they can't survive on our land because there is to much oxygen in our air they can breathe thin air ....just a thoughtedit on 18-3-2012 by observe50 because: (no reason given)

Touched on briefly in the episode under discussion, the bowl mentioned does indeed have Sumerian style cuneform writing, as well as proto-semetic script; two different forms of writing totally out of place and seemingly out of context with the area and cultures associated with it.
As I said before, if it's a know writing, what does it say?
The translation is in the link I provided.
I will, however, source back to the link in an edit to this post with ex-text of the translation ...
Okay, the following, listed under Chapter 3 of source document Investigations of Bolivia's Fuente Magna ... details this translation:
Decipherment of the Cuneiform Writing on the Fuente Magna Bowl by Dr. C. A. Winters
This translation of the 3 panels of the cuneiform writing reads as follows:
"Approach in the future (one) endowed with great protection the Great Nia". "[The Divine One Nia(sh) to] Establish Purity, Establish Gladness, Establish Character". ("This favorable oracle of the people to establish purity and to establish character [for all who seek it]".) "[Use this talisman (the Fuente bowl)] To sprout [oh] diviner the unique advise [at] the temple". "The righteous shrine, anoint (this) shrine, anoint (this) shrine; The leader takes an oath [to] Establish purity, a favorable oracle (and to) Establish character. [Oh leader of the cult] Open up a unique light [for all], [who] wish for a noble life".
There are further translations listed also under Chapter 3 of the sourced document.

I'm more than open to consider aliens or unicorns.
...
wait
....
maybe
...
hmmm
...
Okay, I've considered it.
Nope.
why are the building techniques so similar....and many structures are built at different periods.....with the same precision and the same skill ....

Look around for stone with three or four levels of sharp angled insets.
Not alot of examples, even in our laser assisted stone cutting culture.
A half inch wide, perfectly straight line, a full inch deep with perfect circles cut into the bottom surfaces of the line exactly four inches apart and running for two yards?
Yeah, try that.

And the whole point is that Puma Punku is not an actual city. Ancient Aimaras and Incas never lived there. They started to use it as pilgrimage place for "religious" purposes, thousands of years after it was already abandoned. That place was not built for housing purposes. And the gigantic structure of the blocks as well as their mechanic-functional layout suggest it was built for logistical purposes. Perhaps a cargo terminal of mining operations.
If they were making the objects based on a flying fish, then it's no wonder it would be at least somewhat aerodynamic.

Claiming that "anything can fly given a powerfull engine" doesn't dismiss the obvious aerodynamics of the object. I haven't investigated these supposed objects myself, and for that matter don't even know if they're real or hoaxed, but you don't need a degree in engineering to understand the people who build these had a basic understanding of aviation and aerodynamics.
Welcome.
First post, yay!
Today it is hard to believe that in antiquity vast forests were growing in the Middle East. However, during the early part of the third millennium BCE, the mountain slopes of this region were covered with massive cedar forests. These forests disappeared in the millennia before Christ's birth about two thousand years ago. The destruction of the cedar forests of the Middle East is told in the oldest know, surviving written story in the world: The epic of Gilgamesh. The epic was written in Mesopotamia sometime during in the 3rd millennium BCE. The second episode of the epic is known as “The forest Journey” and is the story of deforestation in the Middle East2.
Quantitative information on the general locations and amounts of undiscovered porphyry copper resources of the world is important to exploration managers, land-use and environmental planners, economists, and policy makers. This publication contains the results of probabilistic estimates of the amounts of copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), gold (Au), and silver (Ag) in undiscovered porphyry copper deposits in the Andes Mountains of South America. The methodology used to make these estimates is called the "Three-Part Form.” It was developed to explicitly express estimates of undiscovered resources and associated uncertainty in a form that allows economic analysis and is useful to decisionmakers.

Thanks for that, I missed it on your previous post (that's what happens when I'm doing several things at the same time ).
