Inca stone walls

Nothing to see here. I could do that with a twig from a sapling and some rock that is nonnative to a 500 mile radius. They had lots of slaves and lots of time you see.

But being serious, the bevel on those edges is pretty cool and definitely throws a loop into things

Even the owners of the Montana site say it's a natural geological formation.
 
I don’t think I shared this video on here yet. A GREAT video. SURREAL. China has a ton of ancient constructions. Many remain unstudied.

I think most epic mystery in this video was the expansive mining into mountain/underground, and tailings would’ve been huge for materials removed but none were found and no evidence of fire inside mystify on how they can see shit when mining or living in there.

Lol yeah ok, cause land owners are never wrong

Edit: they probably just don’t want people setting up a study on their property. Not that I blame them…

Quite to the contrary. They sell tours and shit.

Tours – Sage Mountain Center

They could probably get a lot more attention and make more $$$ if they jumped on the "it's an ancient megalithic structure" bandwagon.

Trying to claim every likely natural oddity as an ancient structure only detracts from legitimate ancient archeological mysteries.

In order to say its natural, you need to name the geological process that would lead to the formation.

What geological processes would cause this?

Or is it "dude, trust me bro, totally natural."

Hmmm, ok. What are you basing that on? Hope its not your inability to fathom advanced humans prior to the point we have now where we all carry around mind control and compliance devices in our pocket. :homer:

If it was naturally geologically created, why would it not be replicated? Canyons are natural, and they appear all over the earth including at the bottom of oceans. Geology does not favor straight lines. Humans do.
 
That's easy. Natural joint patterns are very common and expected in granitic rocks. The silica melt cools deep very very slowly under tremendous pressure. East is entirely correct. :laughing: Maybe WildcatOHV can enlighten you. :lmao: You can see this on the Rubicon trail for emphasis. Basing this on a world of geologic literature and academic work backed up by 40 years as a professional registered geologist. Like a lot of outdoors oriented people here, I see and learn through exposure to the real world. In my case, the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. That actually counts for something here. No inability to understand, on the contrary, I actually do understand.

Can you provide examples of where natural joints and patterns favor straight lines and squared shapes? No one said natural fissures don't exist. Blew yer giz a little early. :eek:
 
Straight fissures are totally the same thing as thousands of blocks formed and fitted together perfectly. :laughing:


The more I look into things from the past the more I'm convinced we aren't the first ones to inhabit this rock.

I agree.

I have also been watching a bunch of AI interviews of people on youtube today. So now I doubt everything I see and hear even more:lmao:

Cool, got pics of those other examples in the Sierra that look like a man made wall?
 
No. Not sitting here in the AC indoors. The Montana spot does not look like aman made granite wall to me unless you are sucking in YouTube clicks. But yeah, there are long, vertical cracks and entire ravines, enhanced cracks by erosion, where natural fracture planes are obvious. Little Sluice is a feature along these lines. If you Google Earth or map and look at the patterns in the rock near Spider etc it is unavoidable. Hate to say it but if you Google crack formation in granite you will get a ton of good reading that is way better than I can do. The Montana site is the best example of looking man made that I have seen. The ruins in China shown in the video give pause for thought, and that video is well done.

Waste of time illustrating the obvious. Look at Google earth around Spider lake on the rubicon trail. If you are going to blow, get more in front of your mirror. :flipoff2:

Devil's causeway in Ireland is in all the geology and geomorphology texts and was never considered any remote chance of man made until the fantastic imagination and gullibility of the internet made clearly unsound ideas a monetary venture feeding off the unknowing.

Munt, have you ever walked or hiked out into granite glaciated country ? In other environments granitic can form domes, caps, and innumerable natural shapes. Where incised by rivers or creeks bowls and chutes can form.
 
All the vertical pillars are natural. They are not smooth, or flat or consistent in their angularity like the horizontally stacked walls that are the topic of this thread. :flipoff2:

I think you are only looking at the volume of stone to be carved. My solution clearly has more.

What I find mind boggling is the amount of effort and skill to create a very intricate 3-D puzzle, in a world where you can't lift a huge stone and try fitment a dozen times with a hydraulic crane. These things often have gaps in which you can't get a knife blade in. Even using plaster templates it is a metric ton of work.

To use an old Stones song lyric...Time is on my side,,,yes it is.

We have a ballpark idea of when it was used but no real idea of when it was started to be built and finished. Pyramids are similar but the stone is sandstone and easier to shape than the granite the incas and Mayans used...

uuuh... Are we looking at different devil's postpile pics or something? Those things are smooth and very consistent in their angularity. Looking at the top of them is almost crazier than the face.
