Of the megalithic ruins of the world, one that still stupefies visitors to South America, researchers and laymen alike, is the complex of Tiwanaku, also called Tiahuanaco in Bolivia. The most mysterious part of this archaeological site for many is Puma Punku, a cluster of shattered hard stone building block components that lie undisturbed in the high altitude grasslands near Lake Titicaca. The strangest thing about Puma Punku is that the stone cutting technology found there is not present at other locations in Bolivia, Peru, or in fact the world! This book looks at solving the riddles of who made Tiwanaku and Puma Punku, when, and how.

On the altiplano of Bolivia near Lake Titicaca lie the brooding ruins of Puma Punku and Tiwanaku. Though academics insist that both were the work of the bronze age Tiwanaku, there are clear indications that the original builders used very advanced high technologies in their construction.There is also a lot of evidence that Puma Punku was buried by an ancient cataclysmic tsunami that came from Lake Titicaca and that Tiwanaku was also damaged by this event. Explore the fact that Puma Punku and Tiwanaku may be more than 12,000 years old.

Dieses Buch schlägt einen Bogen von der fernsten Vergangenheit zu den übereinstimmenden Weissagungen verschiedener Religionen über das Ende unseres Zeitalters. Es zeigt auf der Grundlage der alten Überlieferungen das Verhältnis von Gott und Göttern ("Engeln") und ihren Einfluss auf die Entwicklung der Menschheit. Behandelt werden unter anderem die Weissagungen der Essener, der Bibel, des Koran, der Hindhu-Schriften, der Edda und der Budhisten zum Ende unseres Zeitalters, deren Übereinstimmung selbst den Anhängern dieser Religionen unbekannt sein dürfte. Die Deutung dieser Prophezeiungen folgt dabei keinem Dogma, sondern erklärt sie aus dem Vergleich ihrer Aussagen untereinander und mit der Wirklichkeit unserer Zeit. In Bezug auf die Essener wird darüber hinaus geklärt, wer der "Lehrer der Gerechtigkeit" war, welches Verhältnis die Essener mit den Christen verbindet und wie die Essener aktiv in deren Geschichte eingriffen. All dies ist, obwohl aus den Überlieferungen zu entnehmen, der >wissenschaftlichen Theologie

*Includes pictures *Includes a bibliography for further reading Few ancient ruins capture the imagination like the mighty holy site of Tiwanaku, located on the high Andean altiplano plateau outside of La Paz, Bolivia. Unlike some ancient sites, such as Machu Picchu in neighboring Peru or Chichen Itzá in Mexico, Tiwanaku has never been "lost"; on the contrary, it has been marveled over for centuries by Incan nobles, Spanish Conquistadores, modern backpackers, and UFO fanatics alike. Despite this history of amazement, Tiwanaku has remained something of an enigma until recently, but it appears that this would have probably been pleasing to its creators. It was created to be a mysterious, sacred, and beautiful place, one with many secrets and a public face characterized by PT Barnum-like showmanship. Skillful modern archaeology has allowed people to look behind the facade and see, for the first time in many, many centuries, some of the secrets behind it. The story is fascinating, complex, and thoroughly human. The modern visitor arriving to Tiahuanaco finds him or herself in, as Cieza de Léon noted almost 130 years ago, a not very notable, dusty, chilly settlement south of Lake Titicaca. The place would not be of any great interest except that to the east and south of the modern village, within walking distance of the center, rise a number of remarkable ruins. The ancient world often evokes wonder, respect and even confusion, and few places accomplish any of that more than the incredible ruined stone temple of Puma Punku. Part of the larger ruined city of Tiwanaku in the altiplano plains of modern Bolivia, Puma Punku is a marvel of engineering, stonemasonry and design. These facts are obvious to even the lay observer, as Puma Punku's stonework is remarkable even for the Andes where visitors have long wondered at ancient stone joints where even a knife bade could not fit between the stones. This level of craftsmanship has caused some, mostly those who have never been to the Andes, to speculate of a fanciful origin for the site, maintaining that such a wonderful and mysterious place must be the work of extraterrestrial or super-human forces. However, Puma Punku's stonemasonry is often considered its most notable feature only because until recently so little was known about the site or the Tiwanaku culture that built it. This would be like visiting the ruins of the Vatican or Westminster Abbey centuries from now and being wowed by the quality of construction. While the construction is impressive, that aspect is not the most interesting story that the sites can tell. Today, through the diligent work of scholars from many countries, the disciplines of archaeology, art history, comparative ethnography and other modern historical sciences have begun to peel back the story of Puma Punku, and historians can once again begin to tell the stories behind the stones. That work has highlighted the enigmatic ruins from many points of view, and have helped explain how it was a place of ritual, showmanship, mythology and, of course, the finest workmanship. Tiwanaku and Puma Punku: The History and Legacy of South America's Most Famous Ancient Holy Site examines some of the most important pre-Columbian ruins in the world. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about Tiwanaku and Puma Punku like never before.

Bolivia and especially Peru have ancient stone megalithic sites that academics can either not explain, or simply ignore. It is clear that very advanced forms of lost ancient high technology was used to shape these structures, and that famous cultures such as the Inca found them in a state of disrepair and simply inherited them. Read this book to see the obvious evidence.

Machu Picchu, recently voted one of the New Wonders of the World, is one of the world's most famous archaeological sites, yet it remains a mystery. Even the most basic questions are still unanswered: What was its meaning and why was it built in such a difficult location? Renowned explorer Johan Reinhard attempts to answer such elusive questions from the perspectives of sacred landscape and archaeoastronomy. Using information gathered from historical, archaeological, and ethnographical sources, Reinhard demonstrates how the site is situated in the center of sacred mountains and associated with a sacred river, which is in turn symbolically linked with the sun's passage. Taken together, these features meant that Machu Picchu formed a cosmological, hydrological, and sacred geological center for a vast region.
