Ancient Aliens is code word for ancient men of color, usually Africans. Any time a Westerner has trouble connecting historical dots they will assume first it was green men from mars rather then looks at plausible facts that it was ancient men from places such as Africa.
The Aztec and the "mystery" of the pyramids is another BS circle jerk by confused westerners. They can't explain how the base of the Aztec pyramids and the Kushte commissioned early pyramids have the EXACT same measurements so instead of linking plausible clues to cross seas travel and trade that existed (Columbus was not the first man abroad), they would rather say blue men from mars came down and measured out the stones. People whom are trusted to be smart believe this shit because it is completely uneasy to believe that anybody other then a white guy did anything of note in the records of history. My own tribe were masters of canoe making and making war ships. It is believed the British borrowed many tricks from us and use their manufacturing might to process materials together to create a legion of Navy ships which helped them conquer half the fuking globe.
The sea currents which Columbus found by mistake were most easily accessible by Africans and Central Americans and it is silly to think they didn't exploit these avenues for trade and exploration if they were literally on their doorsteps. You literally stuck your boat on these currents and you will be taken to the carribean and Central American regions, all you had rondo was manage the intense heat and length of the trip. There are head carvings of negroid men in Aztec ruins and Aztec themed art in places in Western Africa, but again Aliens, of course.
They will always bring up silly fairy tales instead of being honest in given the ancient Aboriginals men of the Americas or Africans there fair dues.
Kosko- have you ever read
Fingerprints of the Gods by Graham Hancock? The author is frequently featured on Ancient Aliens but does not buy into the theory. He believes mystery structures of the past were indeed built by
humans, and they are a legacy of a much more advanced civilization that has been lost.
The negroid statues you mentioned are believed the have been built by the Olmec people. Hancock maintains the Olmec were in all likelihood Africans who migrated across the Atlantic and set up shop in MesoAmerica- who were later killed off by the indigenous peoples.
He does mention the figure of Quezacotal ("Viracocha" in south america). The indigenous myth suggests this figure (described as a white skinned god from across the sea) came to earth to teach humans about farming, astronomy, architecture, etc...sort of possible range of agreement between the ancient alien/strictly man-made theory.
It's really fascinating stuff, makes your head spin when you think about all the possible ways things could have played out.
Nevermind the pyramids- When you have modern engineers saying that sites like Puma Punku or the Baalbek monolith could not/barely be built with today's technology, it begs the question; we are not hallucinating these structures- they exist, they've been measured- so how the f*** did they get there?
Anatomically modern humans have existed for about 200,000 years. Recorded history barely goes back 10,000 years, it is entirely plausible an advanced civilization which predates what is accepted by mainstream archeology could have existed. I mean look at the recently discovered Golbelki Tepe in Turkey- it could be almost 12,000 years old.
The same about of time separating us from ancient Sumeria separates Sumer from whoever built Golbekli Tepe. Try wrapping your head around that.
