Thanks for the ping. Those pictures aren’t real clear. Can you hold my crack pipe while I look for my glasses?

MUSNAD.

Historical Background There is abundant evidence that South Arabian script was used not only in the southwest corner of the Arabian Peninsula (modern-day Yemen), but actually in the entire Peninsula before the Islamic era. Besides, samples of South Arabian Script have been found as far as Uruk in Mesopotamia, Delos in Greece, as well as Giza in Egypt. Archaeological finds show that the Script was used as far back as the 8th century BCE. It was used in trade, religious writing, and in civil records.

I would, but it’s so hot that I’m afraid it’ll ignite my meth lab.

I would've stuck with mushrooms. With them, not only did I find GINORMOUS ROCK SCULPTURES, but there are animal shapes IN THE SKY!!!

But for lack for an appropriate container...

The Indianapolis Art Museum has a fairly large collection of Andean bowl on display. It’s the same style as these buildings. One of the bowls is clearly for containing magic mushrooms!

Musnad appears to be a general name used for ‘writing’ in arab ‘culture’ - the use of which script is apparently dated to around minus 800.

The ‘features’ in the video are stated to be possibly 5,000 years old.

Just another (p*ss-weak) arab attempt to claim they discovered South America.

after nazca, nothing that comes from this area surprises me in potential, bogus or not.

Seeing a cliff-sized drawing of a guy with a face-shield/suit around him from the 8th century ad is quite the opinion-alterer.

thanks for the link, found this:

In her Plato Prehistorian: 10,000 to 5000 B.C. Myth, Religion, Archaeology, Mary Settegast reproduces a table which shows four runic character sets; a is Upper Paleolithic (found among the cave paintings), b is Indus Valley script, c is Greek (western branch), and d is the Scandinavian runic alphabet.

Why are the images (including the one on Mars) so damn blurry?

In a world of computer enhancement, we should have to put up with this.
