Re: Incas's treasures
Good morning Beth: the tunnels near here are obviously man made, supposedly square cut tunnels, rooms, artifacts, gold ornaments, etc. Fascinating and have never been probed except for a few hundred ft.
The last story that I have was a local who finally developed enough courage and entered. He was gone for several days, and then was found wandering around below the area in a semi dazed condition, similar to oro.
He said that he had found many rooms with different things in them, figures, and utensils, artifacts, and finally a room with jars and bowls filled with Gold in nugget form. He filled his knapsack as full as it could handle and tried to leave, but the many different turns and twists confused him.
It was two days before he stumbled on the right one and emerged, basically incoherent and deranged. He ran and stumbled for hours, often falling, then found that somewhere he had lost his knapsack. He did not have a knapsack or anything else to show for his experience, when he was found, so he was dismissed as using his imagination too freely, or just plain crazy.
Several years later a cowboy on foot looking for cows, found a knapsack lodged in the fork of a small tree, it was full of gold nuggets, so it was proven that part of his story was true, but unfortunately he had died, having never recovered.
Apparently there are several known entries, but no one will enter. To date no-one knows who, how, or when the tunnel system was made, nor for what purpose?
It is extremely curious the similarity in various parts of the world of extensive tunnel making, tunnels that were not for mining. Many are very extensive, yet no debris from the construction has been found. How did they do it?
In the "Rivers run East", the author Leonard clark, describes long well made tunnels with monkeylike inhabitants still living in the pitch black darkness?
