There are a few scattered references around TC which allude to ancient astronaut theory, and much of what Von Daniken wrote during the 1960’s has been proven to be bilge. Nonetheless, speaking as a fairly objective inquisitor into the subject, I find a lot of unanswered questions in the body of literature relating to the whole “are we alone?” question.

Whether you adhere to the standard academic version of early Earth cultures, or take the more adventurous Heyerdahl/Ancient Aliens path, there is ample evidence that our earliest ancestors were in semi-regular contact with what they at least thought were visitors from beyond. All doubters are referred to consider the remnants of Puma Punku…

All of which is to say that many of the origin “myths” and relics associated with Tiki culture form a direct tie with us Sophisticated Savages and these mysterious early collaborators from beyond.

Where do you fall on this subject? Enthusiast? Agnostic? Who cares?

Is our species one vast cargo cult?
