There is no argument from this author that there are some fake Ica Stones out there, but on the other hand, just because some fakes and frauds have been made, doesn’t mean the real ones are discredited. However, most evolutionists take the position that the stones are all fakes because they are afraid. If just one of these stones is real, it would collapse the very foundations of their religious teachings.
I have traveled to Pensacola, FL to see the largest collection of these stones in the US. Most evolutionists, that believe the stones to be fake, have never even seen them in person. They are incredibly dense and heavy, and when you see them yourself, you will notice the care that must have been taken to carve these stones, and question the processes that were used to accomplish it.
There are many articles and documentaries made that have, in their own words, “proven” these Ica Stones to be fakes, but the whole truth is not told. Most of these shows and documents are simply not well-researched because there is a presuppositional bias that needs the stones to be non-existent. For example, a man by the name of Philip Coppens wrote an article on his website that attempts to squelch any credibility to the Ica Stones, but the extent of his research is seen in his labeling of Dr. Cabrera’s father:
“Cabrera’s private museum includes a collection of stones belonging to his father — Bolivia Cabrera...”
Those that say all the Ica Stones are fake have to find a ways around the scientific and archeological evidence, and often, it is ignored. For example, these stones were first discovered and reported by the Spanish in 1535.
“Father Simon, a Jesuit missionary, accompanied Pizarro along the Peruvian coast and recorded his amazement upon viewing the stones. In 1562, Spanish explorers sent some of the stones back to Spain.”
Erich von Daniken analyzed these stones on a microscopic level, and found the following:
“Right angled clean scratches showed on the new stone under the microscope, whereas microorganisims could be seen in the grooves of Cabrera’s stones under a fine glaze... that was the tiny major difference between genuine and false stones.”

If the skeptics would do a little research, they wouldn’t have to be so skeptical.

They are incredibly dense and heavy... Now THAT's a real solid supporting argument o.0
you will notice the care that must have been taken to carve these stones, and question the processes that were used to accomplish it. by the hoaxers admission: dentist's drill.
...whereas microorganisims could be seen in the grooves of Cabrera’s stones under a fine glaze... that was the tiny major difference between genuine and false stones. Baked cow poop.

Interesting that ONLY the fake ones have dinosaurs carved on them ...
