Not me. The person I quoted meant approximately 1000-1500 years ago not thousands.

While arguments can be made adout the sophistcation of tools used in these sites, the true issue is the size and perfect placement of solid blocks weighing 50 tons or more.
Anyone who would suggest that the human civilizations credited with the erection of these magalithic structures had the technology to actually do
that is not looking at it scientifically !

I don't care about all the evidence you need.

Yeah, but clearly all his grandkids were actually aliens that showed him how to do it.

Using Occam's Razor to explain what's observed doesn't prove that the most likely explanation is the correct explanation.
Of course it doesn't. But it works well enough.

You do know the Sumerians recorded that gods came down from above and created the first human beings, don't you?
Yes I do. But I'm happy to go with what is by far the most likely explanation. If you prefer to go down rabbit holes in the hope one of them works out, go right ahead. Sometimes it does, just not very often.
Be advised that you'll need to find corroboration from multiple sources, not just a couple of guesses. This is why we're pretty sure the Earth is about 4.5 billion years old - there are many completely independent avenues of research pointing in that direction.

Are you serious with this? You are claiming that a picture of a hole next to someone's index figure is a foot or more in diameter?
It's obvious you're seeing what you want to see rather than what is actually there. Or you're being intentionally dishonest or trolling.
And as far as timing, I didn't read where that came from, but it would seem like they managed to bore a three inch deep or more hole in granite using that method fairly quickly.

They went to space and colonized another planet. Book it.

quote: ancient alien proponents often point out that granite and diorite are much harder, if not impossible, to cut with ancient tools to high levels of precision. After a little searching around, I found many examples of intricate stonework being produced thousands of years before the Puma Punku site was erected such as the Code of Hammurabi. Carved in 1772 B.C from a large piece of diorite (more than equivalent to the hardness and durability of the andesite blocks at Puma Punku), it was created more than 2,000 years before Puma Punku. Diamond tools are known to have been used for thousands of years (2500 B.C. in China), and maybe even much longer as nothing would have barred the mineral from being collected (as it is found naturally in the Earth’s crust). The reason that no diamond tools remain on these sites to be found today should be obvious to any modern or ancient observer; their value would not allow them to be discarded. The drill holes and complex interlocking blocks would be a complicated engineering feat, but stone drills have been proven to be able to cut those holes at a similar level of precision in granite and sandstone. Since copper was known to have been in use as well, the claims of drilling being proof of ancient aliens requires more than a stretch of the imagination. Also at Pumu Punku can be found hydraulic hoses and aqueducts used for sewage management and irrigation of agriculture. The Greeks, then later the Romans were known to have similar aqueduct and pumping/piping technology which also predates the Puma Punku site.
Your move, alien believers

I completely agree. There's no way the hole in that second picture is a foot in diameter.

BTW, the two photos appear to be showing two different holes that were drilled in the granite.

There are plenty of explanations of how it was done if you'd bother to look. Just because something was difficult doesn't mean aliens did it.

To me, the thing that once and for all demolished the Ancient Aliens Theory was the discovery of Gobekli Tepi. What it revealed was that Aliens didn't give us knowledge or do megalithic building for us, we've simply had the timescale of human development way wrong and the path of development and capability of given cultures at different stages wrong too. It turns out that human culture is far older than we once thought and development of certain capabilities occurred much further in the past than we once thought. No aliens, just us, much longer ago than we knew.

Exactly. The only logical answer is that it was aliens with the technology to safely travel light years through outer space using unknown methods of propulsion only to come to earth to stack rocks.

They folded space-time in order to do masonry for naked monkeys.

Both holes look like they are 3.5-4" in diameter.
Are you unfamiliar with perspective?
