Ancient megalithic stones cut with
astonishing precision.

What some people suggested is that they
were using electricity and power tools.

Mysterious sculptures depicting beings
from around the world and

beyond.

There are all the races here, even the
grey alien.

and legend of otherworldly giants
creating an entire civilization

in a single night.

If there's one place that shows evidence
of ancient aliens, it's Pumapunku.

Are the ancient ruins of Pumapunku the
result of primitive man's incredible

ingenuity? Or are they the product of a
much higher power?

Puma Punku is the only site on planet
Earth that, in my opinion,

was built directly by extraterrestrials.

Millions of people around the world
believe we have been visited in the past

extraterrestrial beings.

What if it were true?

Did ancient aliens really help to shape
our history?

And if so, Might there be evidence here
on Earth of a lost alien city?

Bolivia, South America.

Here, 45 miles west of La Paz, isolated
high in the Andes Mountains,

lie the mysterious ancient ruins of
Pumapunku.

Spread across a desert plateau at an
altitude over 12 ,000 feet, the

stones found here are among the largest
on the planet.

measuring up to 26 feet long and
weighing more than 100 tons each.

These are the mysterious ruins of Puma
Punku, nearly 13 ,000 feet

in the Altiplano of Bolivia.

What you have here are massive blocks of
granite scattered like some

kid's toy blocks around the site.

like some giant cataclysm just wiped out
this entire area.

Archaeologists are baffled by what
Pumapunku was, how it looked,

and what the purpose of this enormous
structure would have been.

Mainstream scientists believe the site
was originally constructed about 2 ,000

years ago.

But in 1945,

archaeologist Arthur Posnatsky proposed
that Puma Punku was much, much

older. By examining the structures and
what he believed were their original

alignment with the stars, he dated the
ruins to 15 ,000 BC.

Arthur Posnatsky.

was a researcher, part Bolivian. He had
worked at the site for many decades, and

he concluded that the site must have
been built about 17 ,000 years ago by

studying the archaeoastronomy of that
particular site.

We don't know how old Puma Punku is.

We have had some circumstantial dating,
but we have been unable to date the

stones of Puma Punku themselves.

They could be thousands, if not hundreds
of thousands of years old. We don't

know.

I think the fascinating thing about
Pumapunka is how did these structures

get built. We're talking about stone
that is 25 feet high,

stone that is hundreds of tons.

Pumapunku is so unique in the way that
it was constructed and shaped and

positioned.

that it is the most intriguing ancient
site on the planet.

Of all the places I've ever visited,

Pumapunku is the one that I go back to
time and again because no one can solve

the mystery.

Mainstream scholars believe the andesite
blocks found at Pumapunku were formed

by hand with primitive stone tools.

But some researchers point to the
intricate stonework as evidence of the

advanced precision technology.

One of the amazing things here at
Pumapunku is the precision of the block.

You can see with this block of granite
that it's really been cut at very

accurate right angles.

Not only do these granite blocks have
precision corners, but they also have

these difficult drill holes that are
going right through the rock.

But how could such primitive people,
living perhaps tens of thousands of

ago, have produced such flawless
stonework?

Might the ancient builders of Pumapunku,
have fabricated the megalithic stones

with advanced technology.

Technology of an otherworldly origin, as
ancient astronaut theorists believe.

If you look at the stones carefully and
you get a magnifying glass on some of

them, you can see some intricate
stonework, as though they're using

tools or even lasers.

It's absolutely incredible. I've seen
nothing like it anywhere on the planet.

When an architect or an engineer looks
at Pumapunku, one thing jumps out

immediately. That whoever built this
place had knowledge of

planning, of logistics, and had access
to advanced technology.

You know, Brian, this is one of the most
interesting and unusual stones here at

Pumapunku.

It's got these perfect right angles.

And then each of these small drill holes
are basically evenly spaced along

this routered groove.

To me, it's clear that power tools have
been used on this unusual block of stone

here. Well, exactly. And this surface is
as smooth as the tabletop, like in your

kitchen. There's no wave to it or
anything. This was machined.

But who machined it?

It's an astonishing piece of work in how
anyone could think that primitive human

beings could have done this.

You know, it's just crazy. If anything
looks like ancient aliens, it's this

stone.

But if otherworldly technology was used
at Pumapunku, where is the proof?

In Danville, Illinois, machinist and
toolmaker Chris Nunn has put the

stone through the ultimate cutting test
using both laser technology and a modern

diamond saw.

We've got a sample of the laser cut.

This is the diamond wheel cut and the
top surface is the original cut surface

from Pumapunku.

So now we can compare the difference
between all three cuts.

Looking at the stone under a microscope,
Dunn compares the two modern cutting

techniques with the part of the stone
cut thousands of years ago.

Though age has worn the surface of the
ancient example, the comparison reveals

distinct differences.

You've got vitrification on the laser
cut side, and then, of course, you've

circular tool marks on...

the side cut with the diamond saw, and
then whatever tool they used to cut the

ancient surface must have been a
different method.

Now, do you think it's possible that
some type of a diamond precision tool

used on the old surface, but because it
was such a long time ago, that over

time, the surface became a bit more
rough, and we're talking 10 or even 15

years ago?

That is a reasonable speculation. I
think we have to start examining a

more sophisticated tools that no longer
exist.

What did the ancients use to cut the
andesite stone so precisely?

Might evidence of advanced technology be
found by further study of the

construction of the Pumapunku stones?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and
point to what they call H -blocks.

Seems like every one of these H -blocks
is exactly the same. So it's like a

prefabrication process where they needed
X hundred of these and whatever

machinery it is that they had was able
with amazing accuracy to replicate one

after another after another.

That's very sophisticated. Yeah, it's an
ingenious way of building a huge

granite wall.

And again, the whole thing is just so
incredibly precise.

Doing these kind of inside corners like
this, this just can't be done really

with copper chisels and stone hammers.
The whole thing is

just so incredibly high -tech.

even beyond what we would do today.

But how could the ancients have managed
to move the incredibly heavy andesite

stones to the site?

After years of research, mainstream
archaeologists have said the massive

were hewn at quarries over 60 miles away
and then rolled to Pumapunku on logs.

What nobody talks about is the
irrefutable fact that we are at an

,800 feet, which means we are above the
natural tree line.

No trees ever grew in that area, meaning
no

trees were cut down in order to use
wooden rollers.

The wooden roller theory

Falls by the wayside.

Could there have been another, more
profound method of moving these

stones into place?

And if so, how could such an advanced
engineering feat have been accomplished

without the help of modern machinery?

How these massive blocks of granite were
moved from their quarries and brought

here to Pumapunku would have required
some kind of super technology.

Levitation and anti -gravity.

Huge lifting vehicles.

Something that ancient aliens would have
had.

Mike the Ancient City of Pumapunku.

really have been built by alien beings,
as ancient astronaut theorists contend.

Some researchers believe the ultimate
proof can be found nearby and also

carved in stone.

Southern Peru, 1549.

While searching for the capital of the
Inca Empire,

Spanish conquistadors, led by Pedro
Cieza de Leon, cross into Bolivia and

discover the ruins of Tiwanaku.

Less than a quarter mile northeast of
Pumapunku, mainstream scientists believe

Tiwanaku was once the center of a
civilization with more than 40 ,000

inhabitants.

Tiwanaku is probably the greatest...

Native American civilization that many
people haven't heard of.

It was one of the most important
antecedents of the Inca.

It was long gone by the time the
Spaniards came on the scene.

Yet its level of achievement in
architecture, in political development,

agriculture, in many craft industries
are on a very high level.

Most scholars agree.

that Tiwanaku was mysteriously abandoned
around 1100 A .D.

But why?

Local legends suggest that Tiwanaku was
built as a site of religious pilgrimage

to celebrate the arrival of sky gods at
nearby Pumapunku.

According to ancient astronaut
theorists, the two sites were not only

different times, but also by beings from
different worlds.

Fumapunku, I think, is very of the gods.

And I think mankind did very little with
that site.

And then nearby, our ancestors built
Kiwanako as a place where people could

to explore these places, but also, I
think, as a tribute site where a god had

once been physically present on planet
Earth.

You have to differentiate two different
styles of construction.

The old style, which I call the
extraterrestrial style, and then the

style, which was made by the humans.

Tiwanaku is nothing else but a place of
pilgrimage for people to congregate

and remember the time when something
significant happened at Pumapunku.

And the thing that was significant about
it was an extraterrestrial visit by

ancient aliens in the remote past.

But if Tiwanaku was built to honor
extraterrestrial contact, as ancient

astronaut theorists contend, might there
be tangible evidence?

In the 1960s, the Bolivian government
excavated and unearthed the subterranean

temple at Tiwanaku.

Within the walls of the square sunken
courtyard are hundreds of stone heads

a diverse range of features.

Here at the famous sunken temple at
Tiwanaku, we have all of the different

that have been inserted into the walls.

It's sometimes said that...

There are all the races of mankind
represented here.

Even elongated skulls, people wearing
turbans, people with

broad noses, people with thin noses,
people with thick lips, people with

thin lips. And some of the statues are
particularly

unusual.

They don't seem to represent the local
people. They seem to represent every

and shape of human head existing on the
planet.

Two of them, which are very intriguing,
are white in color, and they look very

much like gray alien heads.

When we're looking at the carved heads
of the Tiwanaku complex, you really see

that it's almost as if this is the UN
headquarters, whereby everybody was able

to come there because all cultures on
planet Earth accepted that Tijuana was

special because this was a place where
contact with the divine had been made.

Some researchers believe a large statue
at the center of the sunken temple

depict the creator god, known as
Viracocha.

But why would the inhabitants of
Tiahuanaco have depicted their most

god with features unlike their own?

He has got a beard and a mustache. And
that is an unusual thing because

American Indians do not have beards and
mustaches.

Exactly. The fact also that the beard
and the mustache are so pronounced,

they're not little wispy ones, they're
major. So that indicates that this

was not a South American native, but
clearly came from another land.

And an important person, too, who's
somehow one of the founders here of

Tiahuanaco, maybe even somebody who's
come from Sumeria to South America.

Is it possible that the Sumerians, a
civilization established in 4000 BC and

located nearly 8000 miles away, could be
connected to the early inhabitants of

Tiwanaku?

If so, how?

Ancient astronaut theorists believe the
answer can be found at the Precious

Metals Museum in La Paz, Bolivia.

This is perhaps one of the most
important archaeological artifacts ever

discovered at Tiwanaku or Pumapunku.

This is the famous Fuente Magna Bowl
discovered near Tiwanaku.

It's a ceramic bowl, and it has written
on it Sumerian cuneiform

plus Proto -Sumerian hieroglyphic
script.

This script is coming from circa 3000
BC.

It draws a direct connection between the
ancient Sumerians and Tiwanaku and

Pumapunku.

Discovered near Lake Titicaca by a local
farmer in the 1950s, researchers

believe the vessel provides proof of
extraterrestrial intervention at

The idea of Sumerian writing being here
at Pumapunku and Tiwanaku

would seem to relate to the late
Zachariah Sitchin and

his ideas that the Sumerians were also
interacting with these space beings

called the Anunnaki. So in that case,
the Anunnaki were there in Sumeria,

but also here.

at Pumapunku in Tiwanaku in South
America.

Could the stone sculptures found at
Tiwanaku really be evidence of

with extraterrestrial beings, as ancient
astronaut theorists believe?

Perhaps the answer can be found by
examining the legends of the creator god

Viracocha and his mysterious origins.

The Andes Mountains, Peru.

Here, 12 miles north of Pumapunku, lie
the murky waters of Lake Titicaca,

the largest lake in South America.

According to local legends, the god
Viracocha rose up from the depths of

lake to create the sun, the stars, and
mankind.

Legend states that Viracocha, the great
creator god of the Inca and the

prehistoric civilization of that area,
emerged from Lake Titicaca.

They went to Tiwanaku and brought
civilization to that part of the world.

He then went to Pumapunca, and this is
where he said he made men and women from

stone and took them to the four corners
of the earth to spread their seed.

The Spanish conqueror asked the Inca,
the people living there, including the

king of the Inca, what is this Puma
Punku?

And they all said, it's not us. It's not
our forefather who made this. This was

made by the gods in one single night.

Usually a king is proud about what his
people did, about the precision and so

on. In that case, the chief and the
people said, no, it was not us, it was

gods who made it.

One of the legends of Puma Punku states
that it was built by a race of giants in

one night after a great cataclysm and
flood had destroyed the whole area.

But what's really interesting is that
who were these giants? Where did they

from? Was it Viracocha and his band of
followers?

Or was it some other beings from some
other place?

One of the earliest chronicles that we
have in regards to Pumapunku talks about

that these giant platforms were moved
through the air by the sound

of a trumpet.

They basically floated.

into place. So do we have some type of
sound technology here? And the answer is

a potential yes.

Might the legends of giants and stones
floating through the air have been

inspired by some sort of mysterious
event in the distant past?

Or were they the result of alien beings
visiting Earth in prehistoric times, as

ancient astronaut theorists believe?

Now, I come with a speculation.

Extraterrestrial arrives, the spaceship
stands in orbit.

Only a smaller space vehicle comes down,
like a space shuttle.

So, just to protect their instruments,
they make overnight, with their

technology, what we call a base camp.

Of course made out of stones found on
Earth because you don't transport

or deorite from another solar system.

And then they disappear.

But the wall of their base camp is still
there.

Now the natives come.

They see this ruins. They touch it with
their fingers.

They say, look at this. It's so smooth.

It's so sharp.

The gods did it.

The place becomes a holy place.

And now the natives start to construct
temples, altars, in honor of the

god. So you have two technologies.

One was an extraterrestrial technology,
and the other was the humans with their

altars and their temples.

In the center of the temples at
Tiwanaku, lie the ruins of a stone arch

the Gateway of the Sun.

Cut and shaped from a single andesite
stone, weighing more than 10 tons,

archaeologists believe the 10 -foot
tall, 13 -foot wide megalith was once

gateway leading to Pumapunku.

The Gateway of the Sun is probably the
entrance, or one of the entrances, to

Pumapunku Temple.

And as such, it's very important because
this is how the people of Tiwanaku

conducted their ritual, by funneling
people through increasingly smaller

gateways and stairways to more and more
sacred precincts.

On the upper portion of the arch,
intricate carvings can be found of

winged beings on either side of what is
believed to be the great creator god

Viracocha.

Interpretations of the engravings
suggest they refer to a calendar

time as far back as 27 ,000 B .C.

So here we are at the famous Gate of the
Sun with Viracocha right in the middle

holding two scepters surrounding by
birdmen.

That's a common depiction in ancient
society. There's a man who's able to

That would have probably been an
interpretation by the native people of

coming from the sky or from the heavens.

Part of our idea, too, that some giant
airship that was a factory

with power tools and power saws and
routers and drills

processing these giant blocks of stone
and then ultimately created Pumapunku.

It seems like the whole complex, some
kind of technological kind of factory.

And if my research is correct, it looks
like they were using it to create energy

of some sort.

So what some people suggested is that
they were using electricity and power

tools, which sounds incredible when we
think about it because they're a modern

invention.

But actually, if you look at the quality
of the stonework, you have to admit

something like that was going on there.

When you look at the complexity of
Pumapunku, the huge platform, the

interlocking blocks, it was made into
what they thought were indestructible

walls.

What you could have is the kind of
perfectly made granite base

port that extraterrestrials would want.

Might Puma Punku be the remains of an
intergalactic outpost built by

otherworldly beings tens of thousands of
years ago, as ancient astronaut

theorists contend?

Perhaps the answer can be found using
modern technology to examine the purpose

for which the site was built in the
first place.

January 2011.

Researchers survey and measure the
monolithic stones and H -blocks

around the archaeological site of
pumapunku hoping to solve the mystery of

these structures were used for and why
the evidence that something

happened at pumapunku is in front of our
very eyes because at

pumapunku we find evidence of stone cuts
that we today could

only replicate if we use the most
sophisticated of technologies

That is part of the great mystery of
Pumapunku.

It seems as though some kind of factory
was set up there to make these almost

exactly the same. It's almost like a
Lego system of interconnecting blocks.

And that is unique on this earth.

Many of the blocks were prefabricated
blocks.

Prefabricated blocks means planning.

You have to make a design.

Planning means writing.

Now the archaeologists say that Puma
Punku are the ruins of temples made by

Aymara. Aymara are the highland Indians
up there. But the Aymara were Stone Age

people. They had not even writing, so
not planning. It's absolutely

Pre -fabricated blocks in Stone Age
doesn't fit with Stone Age. And the

precision of the blocks is absolutely
buffing.

In Danville, Illinois, toolmaker Chris
Dunn uses measurements taken at

to create a 1 -8 scale model of an H
-block to better understand how they may

have originally fit together.

So you actually went to Pumapunku to
measure the H -blocks. What was your

conclusion? What did you find?

For me, it was important to find out
what the measurements were.

What I found was that the internal
cavities...

were not parallel to each other. And by
internal cavities, you're referring to

these two parts right here, right?
Exactly.

These two surfaces right here, both top
and bottom, they are smaller at the

front than they are at the back.

Essentially suggesting a dovetail.
Creating a dovetail.

Why do you think a dovetail shape was
carved or used?

Really, if we look at the way we have
used dovetails...

We use them for mechanical purposes, to
hold things together.

So essentially what I'm saying is that
they were using these H -blocks for a

mechanical purpose, probably to hold
hinges for a door.

To test his theory, Dunn created a door
hinge that would connect to a small

-scale model H -block.

So if we put this together, we put one
in the bottom, like so, one in the top.

like so, and then this piece fits in
there, put a hinge

pin in it, and there you have your
hinge. I mean, it's absolutely

And, of course, the most fascinating
question is, what tools were used 5 ,000

years ago? Because something very
sophisticated was used, and not chicken

Not chicken bones, not copper chisels,
not stone chisels. The tools that were

used to create these blocks at Pumapunku
do not exist in the archaeological

record.

According to Dunn, the H blocks may have
been used to mount hinges for a massive

door, perhaps for one of the largest
temple complexes in the ancient world.

It's a spectacular discovery that Chris
Dunn made.

This lends a whole new meaning to the H
-blocks at Pumapunku because possibly

they held something in place. The
question is, what?

But Dunn's theory on the purpose of the
H -blocks is only one of several recent

hypotheses concerning the complex
engineering found at Pumapunku.

These had a purpose.

Model maker Paul Francis from Dandridge,
Tennessee, offers another theory.

So you've recreated these H blocks that
we can find at Pumapunku, and you came

up with a very interesting idea where
you put these blocks together, creating

what looks like to be some type of a
track.

So tell me more about what went on in
your mind.

When I saw these laid out on the table,
I thought it basically looks like...

some of the World War II launch ramps
that the Germans used in testing rocket

propelled airplanes.

When I saw this, the light bulb went off
in my head and I said, yeah, with some

wooden skids, this would make a perfect
launching platform.

for ancient spacecraft.

So the skid would travel down the H
block and eventually at the end this

fall off and of course the airplane
would continue to go on.

And this is what I envision an airplane
looking like.

And this plane, it has an intake, it has
your control panels, your control

surfaces, and basically

I mean, this thing is ready to go into
outer space.

Yeah, I mean, this just looks badass.

I mean, it looks really unbelievable
because you've basically taken an object

that was created by an ancient artisan
and turned into something from a modern

-day perspective as it relates to space
travel or at least aviation.

The concept for the ancient spacecraft.

is based on gold jewelry found in tombs
near Bogota, Colombia.

After careful analysis and modern
testing of reproductions of the gold

ancient astronaut theorists suggest such
artifacts, nearly 1 ,500 years old,

are proof of modern aerodynamic
capabilities in the ancient past.

original sculptures were produced
they're doing a literal interpretation

they saw i have to take that
interpretation and i have to make it

that would actually work as a machine so
in doing so we've added a cockpit

which the original model does not have
also there are two small bumps on the

back of the original sculpture which to
me indicate rocket thrusters you have

this

cone -shaped piece which could have been
an intake that this person saw.

And we know that these objects truly
fly.

We know that because these experiments
have been done before and they were

experiments that were repeatable,
meaning they satisfy the scientific

And so your idea of using the H -blocks
as a

type of a launching ramp...

To me, it's ingenious. I've never heard
it before, and it's always great to

explore new ideas in this field.

Might the H -blocks at Pumapunku really
have been used as launch ramps for alien

spacecraft?

If so, what happened to these massive,
seemingly indestructible structures?

Pumapunku. For centuries, researchers
have been unable to explain what may

caused the total destruction of this
ancient site.

Some believe a massive earthquake in
prehistoric times may have scattered its

megaton stones like toy blocks.

Pumapunku looked like some type of a
junkyard.

It's as if the whole place at some point
got destroyed and ripped apart

in some type of an upheaval.

Pumapunku seems to have become a victim
of a massive flood of some kind several

thousand years ago.

There is evidence that a meteor or a
comet struck south.

of Lake Titicaca, creating a wall of mud
at least six or ten feet tall that

covered the entire area.

And we can see evidence of that today.

At recent excavations of Pumapunku,
researchers have discovered that bits of

andesite stone from the structural
blocks are thoroughly mixed in with the

Might such findings of this unusual soil
composition be the result of a large

-scale explosion in the remote past, as
ancient astronaut theorists believe?

One possibility is that Pumapunku was
destroyed in some artificial

blast that literally blew the buildings
apart, and then later,

some cataclysmic tidal wave.

Also just covered it with mud and muck.

Some of these stones are so smashed to
pieces, you can find them anywhere in

area. You'll find pieces of diorite with
the angles on it. So that was part of

Pumapunku.

So much of it is not simply broken. It's
shattered to the point where you can

find little tiny pieces of diorite
anywhere you look.

And that looks to me like an explosion
happened.

When you look at the construction
technique, it would seem indestructible,

yet it was destroyed.

But if the structures at Pumapunku were
constructed with such precision, and

with the heaviest, most durable
materials available, how did it end up

Is it possible, as ancient astronaut
theorists believe, That Pumapunku may

been struck by a devastating meteor.

Or could there be an even more
incredible explanation for its demise?

There could have been an alien battle
out there where they were using

technology, perhaps nuclear.

That. blew up everything in the region.
That's very possible.

Something could have happened with our
Earth's shield where the sun's rays came

through at a certain time and just
burned everything and obliterated it.

The only thing we know for sure is those
people at Pumapunku are gone.

We just don't know how or where they
went.

I think that Puma Punku was deliberately
destroyed by its builders,

extraterrestrials, right before they
decided to leave planet Earth and go on

their next mission.

It's hard to imagine the devastating
destruction that occurred here.

It would seem like extraterrestrials had
some cosmic battles on planet Earth

before they left.

There are various sites across the
planet where it is said that there was

contact with non -human intelligences.

But when it comes to Pumapunku, what you
have is also the archaeological

remains, which tells you something out
of the ordinary what's happening here.

And when you lay upon the layer of
mythology which says that the gods were

I think it is an absolutely convincing
case right now to conclude that Puma

Punku stands out as one of the
preeminent sites where E .T. will have

residence on this planet.

And so the question then is, Puma Punku
being a base camp for an E .T.

civilization here on planet Earth, if
they left, does that potentially mean

when they left, that somehow they
destroyed Puma Punku as well?

If they made this to be a factory or
something.

at the end of its use, they may have
simply blown it up because they didn't

anyone to use the technology that they
had left behind.

The ancient Indian epics, the Ramayana,
part of Mahabharata, they're talking

about these horrific wars that happened
in the past with airships, these

Vamanas, spacecrafts.

huge destructive weapons like atomic
weapons. So maybe Pumapunku was

in this ancient planetary war.

Since it is unique to the area, it may
have been an outstation or something for

another civilization, possibly from
India, possibly from Atlantis, possibly

from... Outer space. Exactly.

Precision stonework.

Unparalleled engineering.

And incomprehensible destruction.

Was Pumapunku really built by
extraterrestrial travelers?

And if so, what was its purpose?

Was it an outpost?

A battleground?

Or could it have been a final
destination?

Perhaps one day we will solve the riddle
and find out once and for all just

who we are and why we are here.
