High Tech Power Generation Older Than The Inca Claimed in South America By Researcher

(Before It's News)

The Chullpa towers at Sillustani near Lake Titicaca are thought by most academics to be burial places of the Inca and others. However, engineers Brian Foerster  has taken there are of the opinion that the finest ones are far older than the Inca, and were of some energetic purpose.

 

Sillustani is famous for it’s round towers called Chullpas, some of which are thousands of years older than the Inca and are polygonal design. 

According to archaeologists, a chullpa is an ancient Aymara funerary tower originally constructed for a noble person or noble family. Chullpas are found across the Altiplano in Peru and Bolivia. The tallest are about 12 metres (39 ft) high.

The tombs at Sillustani are most famous. Recent research has focused on the connection between chullpas and the ritual pathways etched into the landscape around Nevado Sajama, as well as possible patterns within chullpa sites

Corpses in each tomb were typically placed in a fetal position along with some of their belongings, including clothing and common equipment.

In virtually all cases, the only opening to the tomb faces the rising Sun in the east. The construction of the chullpa varied with ethnic group: in general, those of the north Altiplano are circular and constructed with stone, while those of the south are rectangular and constructed with adobe. Some are unadorned, while others have intricate carvings. At Sillustani, many of the chullpas have lizards, which were considered a symbol of life because they could regenerate their tails, carved into the stone

It is possible that chullpas were also used by the Inca following their conquest of the Aymara. Very similar stone constructions on Easter Island known as tupa have sometimes been suspected to be closely related to chullpas

    No surprise hear, the establishment in there desire to be the final word (hubris) has gotten so much wrong in this world that I cannot except anything at (there) face value anymore without researching it myself as they lie, deceive and misinform us for their own purpose/gain at every turn. the good thing is that we live in a time where more and more people are no longer excepting the establishment’s word any longer (where sick of being lied to) and because of this where truly living in an exciting time. But, this has caused the establishment to fear us (the masses) and there for we are also living in a very dangerous time as well as they are very powerful and wish us harm.

  • When Archeologists first started to discover these monuments, they assumed they were to either bury their dead in or to praise them in stone. Whether it be burial mounds, stone structures or pyramids. This was taught in schools all over the world as it made it easier to explain. Today with engineers now looking at these sites a whole new theory is emerging. As these theories emerge the Archeologists are still sticking to their stories from the past as they know nothing about engineering and what these structures were actually used for. If you think for one minute that people were buried in most of these structures you have to open your mind and look at the geometry of the structure and say to your self why on Earth did they build this and with the precision of an engineer and for what purpouse did they built these for?

  • Did anybody else the “bending” of the first video at 2:20 to 2:30 ? Watch how the phone looks

    • Agreed, the liquefaction effect on the video throughout is really off-putting and suggests that a lot of editing has been done, which makes me wonder why….

  • Sound frequency could Cast a stone or few

    Has been known to liquify a WALL or two.

    Many ‘rocks’ consist of sedimentary and metamorphic rock for a reason, not just a season though star alignment could help. Some igneous rock were carved while others were constructed to Laser accuracy.

    It’s painful to have to press thAt’ ‘submit’ button after every post/with-draw-all.
    It’s against my very Nature and defeats our pUrpose.
