i seriously hope they are able to preserve this site! how money hungry do you have to be to need another theatre and mall over something that is historical! kinda makes me want to get in my car and head down there to lend a hand...actually it really makes me want to do that but the reality of my life won't allow for me taking off like that.
You should really check out the "Moon With a View" series by Richard Hoagland. I don't know if Iapetus (a moon of Saturn) was the inspiration for the "Death Star" or a happy coincidence. However, Hoagland makes a very interesting argument that Iapetus is artificial. What is even more astonishing is, about fourteen minutes, thirty seconds into the Heston documentary I mentioned, are pictures of what appear to be machined spheres found in South African bedrock that had not previous been disturbed for 2.4 BILLION years. These spheres are EXACT replicas of Iapetus as it appears today.
I find it intriguing that these skulls do not indicate a split brain or deformity and they were found in Peru (and so many!), yet Egyptian pharoahs had the elongated skulls but they 'appear' to have been artificially created. How did they know of such a thing? Why would they revere it if it wasn't associated with a greater mind? We are certainly not the last word in knowledge and more becomes known every day. I have no difficulty accepting the idea of extra-terrestrials. There are far too many pointers to indicate it. Love this stuff! :)
The lack of markers indicates this species either died out and left no offspring or is of extraterrestrial origin. However, I do like your thinking, as the "massive radiation bombardment" may have been the result of "comet/asteroid collision or a prehistory nuclear war, as described in ancient Indian texts. There is compelling evidence of both, as presented in "The Mysterious Origins of Man," a NBC documentary hosted by Charlton Heston and available on YouTube.
The article states that this skull indicates that the brain was not split. This brings up many questions and also tends to confirm statements made about 40 years ago that there were people on this planet that did not have the split brain we are familiar with and they had abilities we would consider miraculous. The theory goes that a massive radiation bombardment impacted DNA and led to the split brain.
I take exception to the use of the word 'mutation.' How do we know this isn't an original?
The offspring of ALL children, both male and female, carry their MOTHER'S mtDNA. A "mutant species" would have left "footprints" in any descendents. Even extinct species virtually always have evolved descendents.
Wikipedia is not a valid source to base an argument upon. This topic is a good example of why. Wp mentions only the two studies which support the "skull is human" viewpoint, yet excludes the three studies which support the "not known human" conclusion. If Wp was an impartial reference, it would simply list all the studies and the respective conclusions. What we have instead is an opinion piece.
the fact that we are finding "new" races of humans is not surprising at all. we are finding new species of life, living now as well as fossilized remains of the same. maybe these elongated skulls are "alien" or just another earthling. socialized predators, like us, are very adaptable. while we have created "new" species like the tigon and lyger, mule, zedonk, and zorse, nature herself in her infinite wisdom, has done the same in the last few hundred years. when the eastern US was being settled by Europeans, the eastern wolf was exterminated as a nuisance, shot, poisoned, it was brought to the brink of extinction. opening the land up to another socialized predator, the western coyote. nearly extinct the eastern wolf adapted and rather than kill the competitor, it mated with the western coyote, evolving the eastern coyote, or coywolf. half wolf and half coyote, unlike the species forced by the human hand they are not sterile like the mule. geneticists haven traced the epicenter of the hybridization to Algonquin Provincial park in Ontario. the new species is highly adaptable and live in Toronto, a lot of them as well as other cities and towns, and out in the boonies, just like the standard coyote. also look what we as humans have done to the iconic lone wolf, bred it selectively on a whim into the hairless chihuahua, the pug, and dachshund, just to name a few abominations. with everything we already know, continue to discover about life, past and present, the earth and the cosmos, it is sad that there still is an overwhelming number of people that believe the Universe was created by magic and virginity. if you seek the another truth google the Roman soldier Pantera. "When you are writhing on the ground and froth is coming out of your mouth, you're having an epileptic siezure. You have not been invaded by the devil, we got this one figured out, OK? I mean, discovery moves on. So I don't mind the power of myth and magic, but take it to the next frontier, and apply it there. Don't apply it in places where we've long passed what we already know is going on." Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson PhD. may the force be with you all.
"mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA) with mutations unknown in any human, primate, or animal known so far." A "skull deformity" repeated in other cultures, for example, Egypt. So, you are saying, stories of aliens in Sumerian, Indian and Egyptian hieroglyphics, as well as in GENESIS and the BOOK OF ENOCH are just "fantasies"? For crying out loud, just how much evidence do you need?
Same here. It's fabulous! This will prove that at least some beings on this planet had a single, non-split brain at one time in some places. I find it hard to believe that the skulls are only 3,000 years old. I theorize that sooner or later it will be discovered that they are much older than that.

and you will see for yourself.
maybe these are the originals that others mimicked?
Aren't there vairous examples of Pharao's with long sculls? Achnaton, Toet-anch-Amon, Nefertete?

i look foward to an update on this story once the excavation is under way!
amazing! just awesome, fantastic and i wanna know more!!!! i'm especially interested in the part where they can't mate with humans!
This is just more evidence of ET contact during ancient times

Ockham's Razor implies that the elongation is due to some human based manipulation and not that they're a different species.
Let's not jump to wild conclusions without validated and peer reviewed evidence to back it up.
The offspring of ALL children, both male and female, carry their MOTHER'S mtDNA. A "mutant species" would have left "footprints" in any descendents. Even extinct species virtually always have evolved descendents.
@Dylan,

This is a pretty extraordinary claim.
Obviously, this needs independent verification and publication to have any validity.
Let's see some evidence.
