"And are there not accounts of a “white” people seen in the ruins of some ancient cities in the Amazon who shrank from contact with those from out civilization exploring there?"

Kuelap - The Machu Picchu Of Northern Peru (Chachapoyas - White, blonde haired people)

"Inca chronicles and legends persist that the Cloud People were tall fair (skin and hair) warriors. This is reinforced by an unusually large proportion of blond, fair natives in this zone who know of no European ancestry."

These are the aliens that landed on the UFO landing strips which can be seen from the air. They kick starteed the human race and stayed around long enough to make sure it was doing alright.

Don't you guys know anything?
