EARTH IN UPHEAVAL by Immanuel Velikovsky:

...'...Once Tiahuanacu was at the water's edge; then Lake Titicaca was ninety feet higher, as it's old strand line discloses. But this strand line is tilted and in other places it is more than 360 feet above the present level of the lake. There are numerous raised beaches; and stress was put on "the freshness of many of the strandlines and the modern character of such fossils as occur."

Not that I go with the Atlantis-Bolivia scenario...but SOMETHING happened suddenly-instantaenously and with a massive force of energy; even Darwin writes of finding sea shells at 1300 feet elevation, in his private journals.

Like I said, moving that amount of water in a single day would have cut a sharp walled trench similar to the Grand Canyon. Desert washes do not have gently sloped banks similar to a lake. They look as if they were cut with a giant fire hose.

Is there any sharp walled trench landscape on the edge of Lake Titicaca?
