Eric Von Daniken?????
Eric Von Daniken, in his series of books beginning with Chariots of the Gods theorized that the Andean stoneworks were built by Alien/Gods who visited the earth long ago, bringing civilization to primative man. The scientific community simply snickered.
Whatever one thinks of his theories, he brought to the public an awareness of the many ancient monuments on earth that seem to defy rational explanation.

Can’t remember the title of the show or which channel it was on (History Channel or Discover Channel probably), but it was a Stonehenge show about a year ago. They were pondering where the stones came from and where other large stone structures were around England. There was an aerial view of several stones placed in what looked to hubby and me just like old binary IBM cards. We’d never seen them before and we both said, “computer cards” at the same time. The program didn’t think in that direction.
