| #1 The pre-Incan peoples are one of the biggest prehistoric mysteries around. Not only are their solar observatories offset by 30,000 years, measurable because of the regular decline of the Earth's axial tilt, which is much less than it used to be. But these people also used portable furnaces with bellows capable of melting serious metal alloys, then poured into improbably large and carefully fitted rocks, as brackets. They were also amazingly advanced with their continually-changing-due-to-earthquakes irrigation system. Their channels were designed with just enough decline and barriers so that water would not run too fast and erode the channel, nor would it stagnate. And then, of course, were the profusion of enormous pictographs visible at altitude, a communications system based in complex knotted cords, and who knows how many other cultural eccentricities. |
