Another blow to the “Noble Savage” concept, which seems to be the product of that European white guy, Rousseau.

It seems most of the highly accomplished Indian civilization never got the word on what they were “sposed to be.”

On the other hand, how did they get those huge stone blocks to fit together so precisely in Peru, far more precisely than the blocks of the pyramids?

And what about those “flying cars” in the Celtic legends and the pictures of men and dinosaurs in the same scenes?

Every find is fascinating.

Lawrence Keeley pretty much burried the "noble savage" myth with his book War Before Civilization.
