Megalithic Marvels - Third Reich Tech, Giants of Ancient Britain, Strange Discoveries (best of episode)

Episode Date: August 3, 2025

This 'best-of-episode' features three popular segments from the Megalithic Marvels podcast. In the first segment I interview researcher and author Hugh Newman who shares several accounts and legends related to giant skeletons that were unearthed in Britain. In part two of this episode I feature a segment from a previous interview with researcher and film-maker Chad Riley who dives deep into the topic of Nazi occult sciences. In the final part of this episode I share about two incredible ancient sites that I have visited, and then I read an old newspaper article I found in the digital archives of the Library of Congress that tells of a strange discovery...JOIN ME ON A TOUR

I'm excited to be joined by author, explore, researcher, Hugh Newman, Hugh. Thanks for joining me again on Megalithic Marvels. Yeah, my pleasure. Thanks for having me back. I can't do an interview with you, Hugh, without talking about giants a little bit, because you're one of the great giantologists of our day. You've written books, if people don't know, giants on record. And then I think your last one was Giants of Ancient Britain and Stonehenge, right?

Yeah, yeah. Giants of Stonehenge and Ancient Britain, yeah, that's the one. Yeah. I know you put out an article two, like the top 10 giant discoveries in ancient Britain. I was reading that recently. And I wanted to ask you about at least three or four of these accounts. Can you tell us about supposed a giant found at St. Michael's Mount in Cornwall? Yeah, for sure.

Yeah, that's an interesting one. This is an eight foot skeleton, which was found at least eight foot, actually. And it was thought to have been discovered in the 1800s. now people who don't know some michael's mountain this is off the far tip of cornwall it's um it's it's just off the land now but it used to be much further out into the kind of sea used to be ancient forest there going back into the neolithic times there's legends of comor and the giant he used to live there with his wife and they used to throw stones from the shore to the island and that's how the island eventually got built by throwing stones and carrying them in their

aprons which is a tradition we talk about a lot because it's linked with civilians surveying and geomancy's encoded myths. But in the 1800s, I mean, this is really, really, really interesting story because this is covered. Major newspapers covered this. It's in all the National Trust handbooks. And so, and it got re-buried. It got re-interred in the graveyard on St. Michael's Mount.

And they found it deep below the crypt. Now, there's a Christian element there now. They built a church. It's become a monastery a few hundred years ago. and and and and and and and and and and deep beneath the crypt when they were digging uh they think it was in the early 1800s they could have been earlier they found an eight and or so foot tall skeleton just found down there um and and this kind of suddenly all the myths made sense why was it all these myths of giants and then you have the stories of jack the giant killer trying to

kill cormor and if you look into all these old books these old pamphlets that used to get given out like four or five hundred years. years ago, they talk about this. And so, and also this is right on these two major laylines, really, that go across Britain and across Europe, the St. Michael line and the Apollo Athena line. And I've had a very strange, enlightening experience myself when going into that crypt, when I was in my early 20s, I visited there with my brother, Emmanuel, and we had this profound feeling, like this almost like being filled up with light, kind of spiritual, spiritual energy, if you like.

And we think we might have just gone there at the right time and these energy lines are kind of activating or something like this. But I never forgot that. But then only years later, I understood, oh, there's something actually about this because people have witnessed stuff above the island like apparitions of St. Michael and angels.

So there's something profoundly odd and energetic about that site. And the fact that you've got an eight-foot giant, which has been documented officially, really kind of puts the icing on the cake. when it comes to the whole, you know, trying to prove these giants really existed. And that's interesting that, of course, there's a church or monastery built right here over this. It sounds like over this giant. You mentioned the energy, the lay lines.

Is that part of the connection why it's like all these Catholic churches are built? It seems like over a lot of these sites, possibly the energy of the site or even the skeleton? Yeah, for sure. You get this all across the world, really. You get these, as different cultures come in and different religions and things like this, they build upon the previous medallithic site, the previous pagan site where people are going to kind of worship or do their practice and things like this. And so it attracts them people to that site again.

But also, you actually get a lot of sites. And we write about this in the new book, is that often the bones were really important, bones of giants. And they would bring them out. re-buried them, bring them out, show them to people during ceremonies. They'd place them in different spots. And this would become sacred. This would become part of the tradition as well. So it wasn't just the megalithic sites or the ancient temples and things like this that they were building over. They would actually start building over bones and burial sites of great kings and queens and giants

and things like this. And we think that's an important aspect that is often overlooked. because you often find, you know, several sites. You find certain, like the thigh bone or fema missing, which would then be used in the ceremony is. All right. I got to ask you about the Glastonbury Abbey Somerset Giant. Tell us about that one. Yeah, that's an interesting one, actually.

That's actually, I kind of, you know, lived a long time in that area. Actually, our conference that we do every May takes place right next to the Giant's grave, weirdly. And this was discovered, this was like a, this was like a media sensation in 1191, if you can call it that. And this caused this kind of ripple effect through the whole Christian kind of church at the time, apparently, where there's this whole story of the king's, the royal family at the time. They had this secret, something to do with the burial place of King Arthur. and the monks had these visions between these two pyramids under the ground at a place called St Dunstanston, St. Glastonbury, that the bones of King Arthur would be discovered.

So they dug down where they thought was the right spot. And eventually they dug down what about eight feet deep. And they found this lead cross, which is like this kind of size. And all this Latin inscription on it said, here lies the burial of King Arthur. So they kept digging. They got to about eight feet. 18 18 feet down and this is where they found this giant oak log coffin with this what was described

as over nine foot skeleton and the eye so big you could pass your fist through them and things like this it was found with this female skeleton which they with a plate of blonde hair and this armor and things like this they claimed the female was guinevere this was king arthur and so forth and this this kind of then became this big story loads of people went to to visit very famous people at the time reported on it there's all these chronicles were written about it um uh even the king uh was it king edward the first witnessed it as well um and so on and so forth so you you've got and so this became known because then they said it was king arthur and this became known as the isle of avalon which was no one ever knew where that was in all these arthurian

myths and traditions that had been going around since the fifth century um and this is when they it became known as the Isle of Avalon because it proved this, this was the thing, the giant proved that. But you go there, you got a Glastonbury today. No one, there's no signs up talking about giants, nine foot skeletons, nothing like that, obviously. But you can actually go into the abbey now and see the sign of where it's first discovered. Then when they re-buried it, they had this big ceremony like 80 years later or so.

And they buried it in this giant black marble sarcophagus inside the sacred part of the church, which incidentally is on the same layline. a St. Michael's mouth going all the way across Britain. It goes through both places. So giants are always connected and we found this a lot to do with these energy lines to do with this geomancy in the land. Glastonbury is no exception. Two more I want to ask you about, I don't know if I'm pronouncing it right. Tell us about the legendary giants of Nishau on Orkney. This is, it's Mays Howe, I think. But you might, you might have got it right. I might have got it wrong. Who knows? But who knows how they used to say it for sure.

But this is an interesting megalithic chamber up on the mainland Orkney. It dates back to 2,800 BC. It could be older. They found earlier evidence within it as well. It goes back potentially to 3,000 or 4,000 BC. It's in the whole location of like the huge ring of Broadgar Stone Circle. It's near the Nessa Broadgars, something I've been researching a lot. This amazing new discovery is coming out there.

And apparently this was reported in 1861 by the Antiquarian, James Farah. And it's also, there's also another description actually came out in the early 1500s as well of another giant. But the one that James Farah supposedly excavated, they eventually broke into Mayshael, this stunning megalithic chamber, it's utterly unique. And they found this 10-foot skeleton and two mummies inside the actual chamber. And this was reported.

It was published in the local press. There's actually, you can find the news clipping. of that. And then suddenly, you know, within a week or so, everything had vanished. No one, didn't get mentioned again. All the evidence gone. And that's all we've got.

But then we found this other report from 1529 of a 14 foot skeleton. But this was said to be unearthed in some kind of chamber and by the water and that was all we got. And this was from this

ancient text, basically just called the description of Orkney by something called Joe Ben. And so it's probably referring to the same kind of thing. And they probably left it in there. Then it got rediscovered in the 1800s. But then you have all these stories, these legends of giants all over Orkney as well. And so, yeah, it's just the same everywhere. Where you find the skeletons, you find the megalithic sites.

And you find the legends, which kind of fit with, you know, what was actually found. Yeah, it's incredible. because you've documented also on your YouTube channels and elsewhere. You've got all these oral traditions of giants in England and Britain with Jack the giant slayer like you mentioned. Then there's these giant, would you consider them geoglyphs that are all over the ground that show these massive giants holding clubs. And I think there's a massive horse maybe.

And then all these accounts, like you said, back in the day, this was front page news and the celebrities of the day we're going to see this. So we've talked about an 8 foot, 9 foot, 10 foot. Let's end the giant segment here. Tell us about the giant one found in Ireland. This place called Dushiel, Dushil, I think, County Mayo at Ireland. Fascinating story. This goes way back to the time of St. Patrick, so a couple of hundred years ago. And this is interesting this one, because not only did they fight a 12-foot-6-inch skeleton with all this amazing armour,

they, he became known. This was recorded by Professor Glenn Daniel of Cambridge University back several years ago. He said that St Patrick was the first ever archaeologist, because he was the first person to dig up a grave carefully to see what was within it. And when they did, when St. Patrick did this, and I remember St. Patrick, Patrick, the whole story of banishing all the snakes or the pagan traditions from Ireland and so forth. That's that St. Patrick, you know, the famous one. And they found this remarkable long barrow with this 12 and a half foot skeleton within it.

They quickly dispersed the bones because they were so freaked out by it and the ancient weaponry. And they say they did a whole ceremony to save the soul of the pagan giant by baptizing him and so forth. But then, according to these old diaries, there's a weird. weird, weird story. We put the whole thing in the book. It's so strange. Where they kind of raise the giant from the dead, the spirit, and speak to him and like have this kind of conversation with him, like explaining all these different

things. And he was like, you know, talking about his sins and being forgiven and all this. It's like, what the hell? And then he went back into the grave. And then they closed it and dispersed all the bones and the weaponry and never to be heard of again. So that is a strange story if there ever was. one from ancient Britain.

Yeah, and it sounds like you're saying we've got a professor from Cambridge that's actually corroborating that St. Patrick was involved in this kind of excavation and was involved in the story, right? Yeah, yeah, for sure. I mean, I don't think Glenn Daniel mentioned the giant, but he mentioned the fact that they knew St. Patrick was doing this with his crew, with his monks, with his archaeology monks, if you like. And yeah, so yeah, it's all in the public record.

Well, I am really excited to be joined by a special guest today. I've got researcher and filmmaker Chad Riley on with me today. He is the creator of a new documentary called Skin Walkers and Stranger Things of the Unseen Realm. Chad, thank you so much for joining me today. Well, thank you. It's a pleasure to be here with you today, Derek, and your, your followers as well and I look forward to getting into some of this with you today. Yeah, it's going to be great. We're going to talk about as the title of your documentary says,

Skinwalkers, especially Skinwalker Ranch, because you go deep in that, the history of it. We're going to get into talking about some strange artifacts found on top of Mount Hermon that might relate to Genesis 6 and the Nephilim. And you even connect to, uh, at last Atlantis. But as I'm watching this, you have this piece at the beginning or your talk as you're setting up this whole film. You mentioned kind of briefly how in 1869 there was a British explorer who climbs up Mount Herman and finds something. And I'll let you tell us what he found. But I had never heard this. It fascinated me. So tell us more about this, what he found and how it relates to Genesis 6 and the Watchers and the Nephilim.

Sure. I believe it was Sir Charles Edwin, who was the police chief in London at the time during the Jack the Ripper murders, who was also a Mason. And he was exploring for the Palestine government going around out there exploring. And he found a ancient temple,

probably in fact it is the highest known temple of worship that they've ever found on the planet and I believe it's called cassar antar is the name of it and inside this temple they found a stone with ancient Greek on it and they translated it and it said those who take an oath proceed from here and I present a very compelling case that this ties in with the watchers that came down in the days of Jared, the 200 fallen angels commando unit that came down to blot out the coming Messiah. And that was their mission was to try to blot out the coming Messiah and make God a liar.

And that was the thing is that the Simeaza, their leader said that, you know, I'm afraid that you guys aren't going to, you know, you're not going to take this oath or whatever and stuff. And so they all swore an oath and swore a swore. an oath under this curse that they would all be guilty of this soon. For those who may not know, the book of Enoch, goes in depth on what Genesis 6'4 mentions, kind of in passing about these ancient giants, these Nephilim. And so Enoch breaks down how it all started with these what we would call watchers,

these fallen angels that somehow descend to earth breed with human women, right? but Enoch says how they came to Mount Hermon highest peak there in Israel or the Middle East. And they make this oath, right, that we are going to do this no matter what. And it was kind of like the original genetic experiment, right? Creating this hybrid race, it breeds them out. And so to me, it's fascinating in your film how we might have some kind of archaeological evidence that could back that up, right? because it's this like four-foot stella and you show pictures of it with these ancient inscriptions and here we've got this this 1800s british explorer finds this and the inscriptions pretty much

describe what they said in the book of enoch you know we're going to make this vow and we're going to do this so i found that fascinating because you get into a lot about what blavatsky said about the Aryans and how they were related to the Atlanteans. So why don't you give us a little background on who this Blavatsky is that you quote several times in the documentary and why that's important to set up what she knew about the Aryans and how they might have been related to the Atlanteans who, according to reports, were giants. Tell us a little bit about that. Sure. Helena Blavatsky was a early researcher and explorer who traveled the world going through ancient manuscripts, ancient texts, and wrote several books.

The book and question that we're talking about is her book, The Secret Doctrine, Volume 2. And inside that book, she gets into a lot of this stuff, but she also talks about an ancient Tibetan manuscript that she had translated called the Book of Dizion. And inside the Bucadizion, it talks about the Atlanteans. And it has a specific part in there. I think it stands 11, where it talks about they built statues, the height of their bodies. And it says that they were nine yachtis high. Well, a yachty translates to a meter or three feet. So three times nine is 27 feet tall, which directly ties these individuals in, which

is the six and the Nephom. So you got that right there. and after you know you go that route you're looking at that well that's that's where I get into the whole thing about the Nazis you know everybody thinks it was about eugenics that this was about the race war that they wanted to be pure white pure Aryan well it's pure Aryan but it's not what people are thinking it has nothing to do with eugenics it does to a degree but it's they were tapping into the ancient bloodlines the the Nephilim bloodlines this is what they this is what they were interested in. They wanted to tap into their nephelum bloodlines. And they wanted the powers that go along

with that. I mean, they were reading books like the coming race where they were talking about these people that lived inside the earth that wielded a power called Rill. And this power was so devastating that a child, in fact, if I remember correctly, it says something about a child who had the power of Rill just if they didn't keep it in check, if they just, if they just got upset. They could decimate an entire army, one child. That's how powerful this. So this is what they believe. This is what they totally bought into Blavatsky's root race theology that she talks about. In fact, in the seven root races that she talks about, it was the first two root races. They weren't even human. They were something else. If you read it and look at it,

It talks about like these spiritual beings. So, I mean, seriously, it's like when you start looking into the ancient world, especially stuff like preademic, you start getting into the gap theory, the preademic, and then you start getting into six-day man before Adam and E, because most people, they don't even know that the Bible talks about two creation accounts in there. When you're reading Genesis, there's two separate creation accounts that said, God created men and women, told him to be fruitful and multiply. But then it starts over.

It says God then created Adam. Adam was unique. He put Adam in the garden. Adam lived by himself with the animals for an extended period of time. We don't know exactly how long that was. But there was an extended period of time where he lived just among the animals. Then finally one night he went to sleep. He took a rib and created Eve.

So like I said, there's a whole plethora of time that most people are not even fully aware of. reading the beginning of the Bible, Genesis 1-1-1-2, you got the whole thing about the Tohu-Bohu, which is how we get into the whole thing about the gap theory and pre-ademic. You had Alistair Crowley looked into her research. I mean, a lot of people followed her research, but like I said, the Nazis latched onto it about the root race theology part of it, and talking about the Arians that they were the descendants of the Atlanteans. And so whenever they saw the thing in there about the Bucadizian and how the Atlanteans were 27 feet tall and the Aryans were their descendants, that's what they, and they believe that they were the remnant descendants of the Aryans. So that's where this is all actually going towards.

And they had their various branches that they had on an Urbe, which was like their archaeologists that traveled the planet looking through ancient manuscripts. also looking for archaeological artifacts and so on. And those were the ones that most people are familiar with that we were over in Tibet. And they were hanging out with the monks. In fact, they brought back almost 200 monks and made them SS officers. You know, there's so much about the Nazis that most people have never even heard of and are not even aware of. So, yeah. So Blavatsky was a leading cultist of her day.

Yes. And so she had done crazy research. on all these ancient texts and basically wrote these books, talking about, you know, these ancient races. But you're saying, you know, when people hear the word area and they're thinking, you know, these are the people that the Nazis wanted to be just this white skin, blue-eyed race, you're saying it's way more than that. They were trying to tap into the Atlantean or Nephline bloodlines.

So tell us more about that and then talk more about these artifacts they were trying to hunt down. The nephalin bloodlines, I'm sure you probably know you're probably familiar with Fritz Springermeier's research, the 13 bloodlines and so on. And that's the thing is that there are still remnants of the nephalin bloodlines that live among us today. You know, these are the most elite, wealthy people that you don't really hear a whole lot about. They're never in the news. You never see them on TV or anything like that. Most of the time, their names never even appear in print anywhere because they are just that. they're that powerful.

But again, they believe that they were part of this as well, not just those 13 bullet lines, but that they were the direct descendants and that they had came from the Aryans. So that's what they were tapping into and what they were trying to prove. But as far as like traveling the planet, they were looking for all sorts of ancient artifacts. They were looking for the Ark of the Covenant, which we saw in Raiders of the Lost Ark. You know, they talk about that. but they were looking for lots of different ancient artifacts and not just stuff that had to do with Christ, but other artifacts that,

you know, known to be supernatural that might have even had to do with fallen angels and stuff like that. So they pretty much everywhere all over the planet, they even went down to New Schwabinsland in Antarctica, I believe it's Admiral Donuts that said that they had built an impregnable fortress down. there for him. And in fact, when Hitler supposedly was murdered or killed himself and over there at the end of World War II, the FBI had document saying that he had made it to Argentina. Well, what's the significance of him making it to Argentina? Well, when you know about the Chincana

and all that, you know, it's just a hop, skip, and a jump. You can travel underground all the way straight to Antarctica. So it's very fascinating. Obviously, the Nazis were obsessed. with occult sciences. They're looking for these artifacts. But you talk some about this real society. So I want to just ask you a little bit more about that because you talk about how the real society had like these beautiful maidens, these women that had long hair. But when they would get into these trances, they would start to do some crazy stuff. Tell us a little bit more about what you found in your research. Yeah, the real society was made up of men and women, but there were two women that were part of the Vril Society,

and these two women were part of what they called the Vril Maidens, which there were several of them, but only two were part of the Vril Society. The two that were in the Vril Society was Maria Orsick, and the other one, her name was Sigram. And they tasked these two women who were supposed to be good at making contact with the dead. And they tasked them with making contact with the dead SSI. officer that had been off doing something, gathering intel, and before he had a chance to get back to give the information that he had collected, he was either killed or murdered or something.

So they tried to reach out to him to get this information, and when they did, they made contact with some sort of entity that said it held from the El Debraon system. And while they were in contact with this entity, they said that, they started to excel ectoplasm, that there was like a, this mist coming out of their nostrils and out of their mouths, and their eyes rolled back in their head, and they began automatic writing, and one started writing in an ancient Sumerian language, and the other was writing in some sort of an ancient Templar language. And whenever they got done, writing everything down and came out of their trance, it took them several years to break this down and to translate it all.

And one of them was the directions or the blueprints on how to build the Hanibu. And the other one was the directions on how to build the de glaca. And there's actual footage that you can go and find. In fact, I'll send you the link later on of them doing a test flight of the Hanibu back in 1932 or 33 in Germany. They have it on video. You can actually see it. And this thing actually is levitating and flying around. but the de glaca was something that they said was interdimensional that this thing could jump between

it could go into the heavenly or demonic realms it was some sort of interdimensional vehicle and the hannaboo was that like a bell-shaped craft the harnaboo looks more like what everybody typically thinks of as a UFO a saucer and the other one looked like what it was more bell-shaped that's the de glaca i mean it's mind-blowing this is the 30s yeah and the have levitating like craft. I mean, when you look at the rest of the world, nobody else had technology like that. So again,

that connects back to what were they tapping into? And you're saying, and what a lot of others have said based on your research, as they were obsessed with the occult and tapping into this stuff, they were getting back these secrets, correct? Yes. In fact,

I believe that's where almost all of this technology has come from its fallen angel technology. It was destroyed in the flood. In fact, I think, when I think of stuff like Star Wars and Star Trek,

I think of the past. I don't think of the future. You know, that's ancient history. That's already happened. And that's the whole thing is, you know, there's nothing new under the sun.

So we're just literally playing catch up to what they've already achieved in the past. Okay, let's travel to Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, to the Chechen Eats It's an archaeological site where there's a mysterious structure known as the ossuary. And it's also been dubbed the High Priest's Tomb or Temple, adorned at its corners with reliefs of the rain god chalk.

This structure stands over 30 feet high and features nine staggered layers on each four sides. And on each side is this massive staircase that descends down, flanked by feathered serpent heads on each side, located at the top center, between two carved serpents. So if you can picture going up to the top of this step pyramid, there is an entrance. And this entrance is lined with stones. And it descends down vertically to the base of this pyramid.

Now this passageway continues about another 40 feet past the base of the pyramid. And guess what? It leads into a cave where seven tombs were discovered, along with skeletons, rock crystals, copper bells and jade artifacts. Once you get into the cave, there is then a 10-mile long tunnel that leads from this cave to another nearby Mayan city, which is likely Yaksuna site, I believe. Again, according to tradition, this tunnel or cavern represents the gate between the world

of the dead or paradise. Okay, now let's head even further north to one of the greatest states in the U.S., the great state of Arizona, where I want to share with you a 1915 report I found. One of my hobbies is to search through the digital archives of the Library of Congress. Now, it's crazy what you can find. So here's what I found. This is a 1915 report.

So this article comes from the Snowflick Herald, December 24, 1915, from the digital archives of the Library of Congress. And you can see the screenshots I took of it. And here's what the report reads. Hans Augustus, James Hansen, and Leo Ellsworth returned Monday from a White River, where they have been the past six weeks hauling wood for the Indian agency. They report the finding of a skeleton of a horned man. The skeleton was three feet tall, with well-defined horns, about two inches long near the temples. The skeleton was found near the east fork of a White River close to a large cave.

It was of a fully developed man and was on exhibition at White River several days before being sent to a museum in a Washington city. So I was literally reading the article verbatim there. Some of my thoughts and my takeaways on this is being that these guys were outhauling wood near White River for an Indian agency, I did a quick map search and found, and you can do the same search. I found an unincorporated community in Arizona known as White River about three hours east of Phoenix.

You can literally see it on Google Maps. And guess what? It's located between Mount Baldy there and the Apache Reservation. So this looks like it matches the almost exact area mentioned in the newspaper. And again, the newspaper article states that the specimen was found near the White River and close to a large cave. So very interesting. Again, there is White River. You can see that on the map as well.

And being that it's near Mount Baldy, I'm sure there's all kinds of caves. I wonder if this horned man or humanoid, I should say, did he live inside the cave? It's interesting that the article mentions he was founded near a cave. I think it's important to note that the article states the specimen was, quote, three feet tall with well-defined horns, about two inches long near the temples. If this isn't descriptive enough, it goes on to say it was of a fully developed man. So if we are to believe these eyewitness accounts in this article, I think we can eliminate the idea that this was some sort of animal, Some other questions that pop into my head is I wonder how old the skeleton appeared upon discovery, meaning did it look like it had just died or did it look like it was very ancient and had been dead for hundreds or thousands of years?

My other question is at three feet tall with two inch horns, could this have been some sort of ancient hybrid or might there have been a chimeric connection to? the reservation nearby. At the end of the day, it is a very interesting report. And again, don't take my word for it.

This is in the government's digital archives of the Library of Congress. Okay, last but not least, let's travel to one of my favorite places on Earth, Peru.

And I want to talk to you about the mysterious moon calendar of Kia Rumiak. So I was just in Peru this last October. It was the most incredible time.

And one of my favorite sites of all is this site known as Kia Rumiak. It's located about an hour or so from Kusco. So it's quite off the good old beaten path. But this is one of the most beautiful, picturesque settings you can imagine. It's right up there, I would say, like with Machu Picchu is just one of the most beautiful sites. It's been in its own different way. This is not the jungle. This is kind of higher in the plains above Kusko.

you're in the Andes Mountains but below you is just the most picturesque beautiful farmlands but this is a site shrouded in mystery and as you start to make your way up the mountainside you see all these incredible Inca ruins

you begin to see mortarless megalithic walls and then there is a one-of-a-kind treasure that's really the only thing like it really that we have I believe in Peru what appears to be a precision cut crescent moon

in this giant Boulder. Again, if you're listening to the audio only of this episode, click the link in the show notes to see the article version and these photos. Kia Rumiak, let's break down this word. Kia translates as moon and Rumiak translates as stones of. So in English, Kia Rumiak translates as stones of the moon. And many researchers theorize that this was some sort of ancient lunar calendar or solar clock. and it was so incredible to not just walk up to it but I crawled up the side

and was able to get real close to it lean over to it I was careful not to get inside of it because in no way what I want to damage this thing but you can see it's made from very hard andesite stone and some also claim that when the sunlight hits this moon calendar

at a specific time you can even see the eye of a Puma inside. And I wouldn't doubt it because the Puma imagery is hidden everywhere by the ancient megalithic builders in Peru. Again, according to mainstream, this is an Inca construction, but did the Inca create this or did they later discover it and then build an entire ceremonial site around it? That's what I lean towards,

that this is far older. You get up close and you can just kind of see the erosion, the weathering, again, the precision cuts. When we look at the tools the Inca had, they had softer copper chisels and hammers. It's just hard for me to believe that they could cut this to such precision into harder andesite stone with those softer tools.
