Paracas Elongated Skull DNA Tests Not Human

Any thoughts? The search function perhaps

We have done that subject to death. Your link is out of date too

Any thoughts?

I'll admit, I was wondering the same thing.

Even though the prima facie evidence indicated otherwise.

It's done through binding the skull tight from infancy...a strange old world practice.

Its HSS and no matter how Brien fudges the results made by a unknown 'scientist'. The skull is human, now it could have a mutation but there is at present no evidence for that.

Its called lying to make money and attract attention.

Three card Monty played with "DNA results" instead of cards.

Hey Harte did you read the comments section of that 'report' - I fear for humanity!

I assumed it was the same report I read - what, two years ago?- on other forums and here.

I saw where you said Brien, so I assume, then, that it's not Lloyd Pye's "quote" from his hand-picked but unnamed DNA lab?

I guess I'd better look. Hope my eyes don't fall out.

Okay, I read it all. It is a rehash of Pye's old claim. Looks like with Pye now dead, Foerster feels it's okay for him to take the "lead" in this lunacy.

As an aside, in a few years maybe we should dig up Pye's skull and display it as the skull of an entity so idiotic that he couldn't possibly be human.

Regarding the comments, in my opinion they read like any thread in this section that you and I have participated in, with the caveat that there are slightly fewer skeptical posts.

In fact, the comments made me feel better about humanity.

Follow the link in my sig and read what they write there. Then you'll see it from my perspective.

Hey Harte

Good idea for LP's skull!

Yeah I read some of GDAAIF some time ago, its like the old original Sitchin forum full of bold unconventional thinker types (or "B.U.T.Ts.").

No need to go read it again. It is not like there are any postings happening there...

Foerster should stick to exclaiming the incredulity in carving stone with an equally hard or harder stone. Oh and the precision with which it was done (one example posted by Harte elsewhere was only about 1cm out of square over 18cm).

Yes he still seems to be 'rock challenged'.

Not a disqualifier; au contraire!

What all the phringe theorists fail to mention is sculpting stone is a skill regardless if your using a dolorite pounder or steel hammer.

..and if you are keeping the skill in the family after 20-30 generations or more you're rather adept.

I would guarantee i could give my hammer and chisel to thé top 100 phringe theorists and they would fail trying to shape limestone (which is soft). Woodworking is the same, theoretical knowkedge does no equal craftsmanship.

I read the article and I wonder if any "scientist" associated with the project actually knows anatomy, physiology, or science.

The article clearly states "has only one parietal plate".... except you can CLEARLY see two parietal plates in all the examples (that's the "bone that's the side of your skull (two sides in your skull, two bones.)

So the "scientist" came to his conclusion without seeing or testing the material and clearly has not the vaguest idea of where the skull bones are. I do, because I was a teaching assistant for human anatomy class back in my youth.

In my old physical anthropology class I seem to remember a rule: to find a human, look at the teeth.

I doubt I would know the first thing about sculpting stone but it might be fun to try. Fringe proponents, however, won't even try because it's just easier to ascribe everything to...aliens.

Now I'm trying to imagine the top 100 fringe "theorists" together in one place ("theorist" is too complimentary a word to use with them, in my opinion). And a scary image it is. Can you fit that many people in one of their parents' basements? And would there be enough tinfoil to fashion all of those tinfoil hats?

To be fair, pretty much no one is successfully carving granite or diorite using stone pounders or bronze chisels...fringe or otherwise.

Lack of practice - it took a generation or so to completely regain the stone tool knapping art.

It should be noted that it does work but is very slow. Whether the ancients could go any faster is not known but then they probably didn't consider speed that important.

Given that average human lifespans throughout antiquity were something less than half what they are today, speed must have been important...for both craftsman AND commissioner.
