Let me share some articles with you, which are excerpts from
the book by Kathy Doore entitled, “Markawasi, Peru’s Inexplicable Stone
Forest.” Markawasi is also spelled as Marcahuasi.

Do not even believe the opinion of others, not even the writers of these
articles. Think for yourself.
Mystical
Places
by
Peter E. Schneider
Soon
after arriving in Peru 23 years ago, I heard about a strange, mystical place in
the Andes Mountains, where there were hundreds of stone statues. It was said
that Markawasi was ancient, beyond living memory, existing before the Incas,
and the pre-Incas. It was related that there were heads and faces of human
beings of different races, both male and female, and animal figures unknown on
this continent. There were stories of dinosaurs and strange inscriptions carved
into the rock; all this on a plateau located 4,000 meters above sea level, less
than 100 km from the city of Lima.
There
was only one problem: nobody knew how to get there. Finally, after nearly six
months of searching, I found a group of students who were willing to guide me
to the plateau, and thus began the biggest adventure of my life!
It
was not an easy journey. First, one had to ride on a rickety old bus, finally
arriving to a tiny village high in the mountains. Here, there were only cheese
and potatoes to buy, and only three horses in the whole village, with a few
donkeys scattered around. There was no water on the plateau; no hotel, no food,
no toilets, no nothing. However, when I finally reached Markawasi, my jaw
dropped. My first thought was, “This is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient
World, and it’s right at the top of the list!”
Daniel
Ruzo, the Peruvian scholar and explorer, discovered the immense carved statues
on the Markawasi plateau in 1952, after having seen a photo of what the locals
called, “Peca Gasha”, a towering carved monument found on an obscure plateau in
the district of Huarochiri. The site had been briefly referenced in 1923 by the
Peruvian archaeologist, Julio C. Tello, who termed it, “Markawasi”, giving a
brief description of the 12th century ruins, without pointing out, however, the
massive sculpted statues. Ruzo spent nine summers investigating the sculptures,
maintaining that they dated before the oldest pyramids of Egypt; pre-dating, in
fact, the Great Flood of Noah. He labeled it a “proto-historical” site, which
he claims existed “anterior to the Sumerians and to all three-dimensional sculptures
that fill the European museums!”
The
figures at Markawasi are uniquely arranged over a tabletop mesa, 4-1/2 km in
length, and one km wide. A three-day trek is the minimum required time to visit
all the statues; a week would allow a more thorough visit.
Lost
Civilizations
by
Robert M. Schoch, Ph.D.
When
I was first invited to visit Markawasi by Peter Schneider during the summer of
2005, I had no idea what was in store for me. “Oh, another remote geological
site with some interesting stone formations” I thought to myself. “Well, after
all, I have a Ph.D. in geology and geophysics, and I am rather fond of rocks,
so what is the harm in looking at a few more? Besides, the Peruvian Andes are
spectacular and always wonderful to visit.” Little did I realize the profound
and life-altering experiences that were in store for me there, and that are in
store for anyone who visits Markawasi with an open mind and a willingness to be
moved by the power of the place. And it was not as if I had never experiences
“sacred sites” or Earth “power points” before. For instance, I have spent many
years studying and experiencing firsthand the Great Sphinx and Great Pyramid,
as well as numerous tombs, temples, and other holy spots in Egypt.
It
is an honor and privilege to contribute to this guidebook on the Stone
Monuments of Markawasi. Kathy Doore and Peter Schneider are instrumental in
bringing the mystery and importance of Markawasi to a larger audience. There
are lessons to be learned from Markawasi that will benefit all of humankind.
“
. . . natural adapted features in a sanctified landscape.”
These
words (from John Michell, Confessions of a Radical Traditionalist, 2005)
resonated in my mind as I explored the Markawasi Plateau. I had come to this
small plateau (about two miles long by a little over half a mile wide) in the
Andes, towering above the town of San Pedro de Casta (50 miles northeast of
Lima), at an elevation of over 12,000 feet above sea level, to view for myself
the reputed ancient monumental stone sculptures. Here, some claimed, were to be
found the remains of a lost culture that dates back thousands of years, if not
tens of thousands of years or more. Supposedly they created monumental carvings
from the white to gray diorite and granodiorite cliffs, boulders, and
outcroppings on the top of the plateau - carvings of an anthropomorphic and
zoomorphic nature, including peoples of many different races and animals found
not just in the immediate vicinity, but from other continents as well. There
was even an alleged sculpture of the Egyptian divinity Ta-urt (Thoueris),
goddess of childbirth and maternity, in her typical form as an upright female
hippopotamus. If these reports were true, this would indicate a pre-Columbian
culture that had transoceanic ties, and just perhaps it represented a branch of
the primordial global lost civilization of which many writers and philosophers
have speculated over the centuries. Certainly such reports piqued my interest,
especially since I have championed both the concept of a very ancient high
civilization and the idea of significant global contact among cultures long
ago.
Before
leaving the U.S., I was warned that Markawasi (Marcahuasi) is a landscape of
strange, anomalous phenomena, be they encounters with extraterrestrials (many
UFOs, which the Peruvians refer to as ovni/ovnis, have been sighted from the
plateau), inhabitants of the reputed tunnels that lie beneath the Andes, or the
ghosts, witches, and spirits that some believe populate the site. Visitors to
the plateau have experienced altered states of inner consciousness, accompanied
by telepathic and clairvoyant abilities, whether in the dream or waking state.
What might await me in this preternatural setting?

Fantastic
Discoveries
by
Lisa Rome
There
are many important facets of Markawasi, all pieces of an incredible, complex
puzzle. There are twenty-two energy vortexes called ‘cruzes’, or crosses, made
up of three distinct types of energy. There are three of the first type which
are found in areas of limited access on the plateau - limited to those prepared
to be near such powerful energy. The second type of cross, of which there are
seven, are crosses that betoken the days of the week. There are twelve crosses
of the third type, which have to do with the phases of the moon. Each cross has
a specific healing power. The crosses, which are easily visible on the plateau,
have an undeniable energy that can be felt without any special preparation or
sensitivity. Carlos Seclan, a Peruvian student of Daniel Ruzo, had an
extraordinary experience at one of the vortexes of Markawasi. He had been
studying Markawasi for fifteen years when he had a car accident that left him
paralyzed in bed for eleven months. With the finest doctors in Peru unable to
treat him, he was told that he could not be healed, and would never walk again.
After
having studied the energies of the stones and vortexes of Markawasi, he knew
that there had to be some way to cure his broken back with the profound forces
of the mountain. He knew that on a certain day, at a certain hour, at a certain
vortex, there would be the appropriate energy to heal him. He convinced his
friends to carry him up the mountain to the designated vortex, where they left
him alone for seven days.
On
the seventh day an ordinary-looking Peruvian man, a stranger to Carlos,
appeared. They spoke about Carlos' problem and then the man began to
demonstrate some exercises, which Carlos followed. As he moved through the
exercises he felt a heat rising through his body starting at his toes, with a
distinct buzzing noise, followed by a tingling sensation which began to move
throughout his body. When the heat and buzzing sensations reached his head he
was aware of a light entering the top of his crown, at which point he fell
asleep.
When
Carlos awoke several hours later, he was surprised to realize that not only
could he sit up, but stand as well. The stranger who had assisted him was gone.
Carlos was able to walk down the mountain alone, unassisted, to join his
friends who had been camping nearby.
To
this day, Carlos is the most important living scholar of the vortexes of
Markawasi. He has revealed the location of five of the vortexes. Two of the
vortexes are easy to find on the plateau; one is located beneath the Cat, and
the other, marked with a white X, is in the center of the plateau at the edge
of a precipice. Carlos first went to Markawasi in 1973 on a hunting trip and
says that before he went, he had seen Markawasi in his dreams, and when he
arrived, he knew exactly where to go.
Markawasi
is also a famous location for UFO sightings which the villagers call OVNI’s.
The villagers in the pueblo below Markawasi accept UFO sightings as a normal
occurrence. When asked if they believe in UFO's, they react as though it were a
strange question, as though they had been asked if they believe in cows!
Moises
Bautista, former president of the community, tells of an encounter he had in
August of 1963. The night was clear with a full moon. At about 2:00 a.m., he
was walking near some ruins on his way to check his cows on the plateau. He saw
a ‘car-like’ vehicle come out of the sky and land about 20 meters in front of
him. He hid beneath a tomb as the encounter unfolded.
The
vehicle was about three meters in diameter with six round fluorescent lights.
Out of the vehicle came five beings, each approximately one meter, 20 cm tall.
They were wearing orange/brown body suits and boots. They emerged from a portal
of the vehicle made of clear material. They walked around and touched stones on
the ground, as though they were inspecting them. They then returned to the
vehicle and departed, flying north, the same direction from which they came.
The whole encounter lasted three minutes. Moises speaks freely about his
encounter, as it is not considered a crazy subject in the town of San Pedro de
Casta.
Others
in the village who have had sightings include the town baker. He says that he
regularly sees a silver metallic disc with multi-color lights flying over
Markawasi. He believes that the UFO’s have a regular pattern, appearing at the
end of the month. The baker, and many others in San Pedro, including the town's
youngest children, had a sighting at night of a disc that flew over the town.
The children animatedly tell of the ‘flying saucer’ or ‘planet’ with colorful
lights that flew over their heads in 1988.
Village Life
San Pedro de Casta is the folkloric Andean village
through which one must pass before arriving in Markawasi. Here, one can hire
burros to carry supplies and equipment to the plateau, a three and a half-hour
walk up the mountain. The people of San Pedro are the spiritual guardians of
the meseta of Markawasi. It is their responsibility to see that those who are
welcomed to the meseta feel safe and cared for during their stay.
The people of San Pedro are ‘campesinos’, or peasants.
They make their communal living (income), by farming the terraced land of the
surrounding mountains, as their ancestors did for thousands of years before them.
A total of twenty tons of corn, alfalfa, potatoes and other crops are exported
every year. More interesting, however, is that they export FORTY tons of
medicinal plants which grow wild on the surrounding mountains, as well as on
Markawasi itself. The few available plants found in the area seem to cover all
of their needs. The people of San Pedro de Casta claim that the plants are
ancient.
Stone Forest Legends
The place on the meseta with the most interesting
stories is the ‘Infernillo’, Inferno, or the infernal place. It is a large rock
crevasse about twenty feet deep. It is said that anyone who dares to jump
across the Infernillo will be ‘swallowed up’ and taken inside the earth, never
to return again. Another myth surrounding the Infernillo is that if a person
walks into the base of the crevasse, he will be taken inside the earth, go
through the mountain, and come out at the mouth of a river far away. The person
would never be the same again and unable to reenter society. He would shy away
from humans as wild animals do. The locals do regard these as myths and readily
jump over the gap of the Infernillo.
Sacred
Earth
by
Javier Ruzo
The
Incas used older sites such as those of Sacsayhuaman, and Kenko, near Cusco.
The principle stone in Kenko is encircled by cut stones pointing out an immense
boulder that appears to be the remnant of a puma. Why would you mark a stone
that has almost no form? This would be because you want to leave it as a ritual
element, an offering, to the remains of prior epochs, to convey a mystery, or a
truth. It was most probably a stone used long before the time of the Inca, and
related to the existing sacred cave. All Inca sacred places have tunnels
and ritual caves; all over the world we find the same story: the Mountain with the
inner cavern; a burial place where you were 'reborn' in the purifying essence
of the Mother earth.
The
entire area above Cusco near Sacsayhuaman is a place with labyrinthine forms,
caves with entries and exits, including markings like snakes, which show the
underworld as a symbol. All of this cave culture, of underground water, of the
universal virgin, is also related to Markawasi in that there is a devotion to a
sacred place in the two elements of the Universe: as above, so below; the
virgin with her different names: Pachamama, the earth mother, the European
black virgins, and various other themes, having tremendous relation with the
prayers to the mountain, the prayer to Mother Earth.
Markawasi
is, in the end, the natural expression of a mountain with its many special
formations, as if the Earth had given birth to a full collection of mysteries
in stone. When human beings behold this mystery, we are struck by the same
impressions that persons living thousands of years ago had felt; therefore,
Markawasi is an expression of the Sacred Earth and a message to the future era.
Markawasi
cannot be understood as a sculpture in each stone, but as a place where all the
stones, whether re-touched or natural, confer a message. Here are displayed the
values of man, his knowledge of the seasons, and his often magical relation to
the Universe. They used the elements of sun and shadow to work their art, where
they united the affinities of sky and earth with the universal solar clock,
marking where man held ceremonies to record the passage of time. In
Markawasi, one sees reflections of his inner self; imagination made manifest, a
mirroring of our most secret yearning.
Sacred
places require one thing - that man has a relationship with them. In Peru you
have the tradition of 'ayni', the apu "mountain gods", or whatever
you consider to be Divine. You give it your prayers, your dedication, your
offerings, and it reciprocates in kind - this is ayni. All of Peru is
full of sacred mountains; some have their own prayers which are thousands of
years old. Today you find in the northeast Brazilian mountains cave
paintings that are 30,000 years old, whose carbon dating have changed the
written history of earth. This will continue to expand our knowledge until we
discover the pre-existing immense cycles that rule the ages of our Planet.
History
changes constantly because people are pioneers who sacrifice themselves in the
quest for knowledge. I say that they sacrifice themselves because
bringing new things to history requires people who devote their life to finding
the hidden knowledge. From the time of Copernicus to present day,
free-thinkers have been condemned or ridiculed for their pioneering spirit. There will always be an academic side that
will want to maintain a stable history, but history is never stable. History is
a human version of reality. It is a continuum that changes with time,
transforming itself. Thus, the fundamental element for change, for
any person who wishes to make real history, is to valiantly propose new theories,
and this is how new elements come into play.
When
I was sixteen, I went to Markawasi for the first time. My grandfather, who was
more a father figure, helped me go to Europe to study art. I left my career in
economics, and ended up taking photographs and traveling with him. I think that
my themes have always been about the inner symbols and the voyage of discovery
that one has with the universe. And the places where art took me are related to
Markawasi, China, Egypt, Mexico, Europe and other places that I visited.
The same themes influenced my photography and painting.
It
is impossible to not join art and Markawasi. If I wanted to sculpt stone and
light on a small scale today, to see how the system of cutting a stone so that
the light in certain moments of the day would give form to an eye, or an
eyebrow, or a nose, it is with great difficulty, because in one single stone
you could have three faces, or more, like in Markawasi.
Sacred
Mountains
by
Daniel Ruzo
The
most imposing of the sacred mountains on earth, the one that has the most
beautiful decoration, is located at Lima’s door, 80 kilometers to the east,
amid the peaks of the Andes. More than eighty-five centuries ago, a powerful
people, forger of a complete culture, made a reservoir within this mountain
from the seasonal rains in order to irrigate the surrounding lands during the
dry season. The people converted the plateau into an impregnable fortress and a
religious center with four enormous altars. They surrendered their dead to the
condors and decorated the three square kilometers with hundreds of marvelous
sculptures by which anyone must be impressed. It took so many hours of labor
for the building and the decoration of these works, that we are assured that
the people must have enjoyed hundreds of years of a flourishing economy.
The
lines that are traced by these monuments follow a secret map with only one
ending point: the entrance to the subterranean cave that exists in all of the
sacred mountains. Many groups of people were saved in these caves during the
mythical Noah’s flood. In these same caves many other groups of people will be
saved during the next catastrophe. Read more...
A
Daunting Journey
by
Marino Sanchez
The
district of San Pedro de Casta lies 80 km (49 miles) to the East of Lima, in
the province of Huarochiri, a region of Lima that makes up part of the Rimac
valley where the water creates a basin. Found upon a gigantic geo-morphological
surface that forms the branch of the Andean mountain range, is found access to
Markawasi.
Traveling
along the central highway leaving the city of Lima, we follow the road to
Chosica city. Here the road becomes slower where the country lane becomes a
dirt and gravel lane bordering the valley, and the river of Santa Eulalia. At
an elevation of 1036 meters (3,400') above sea level (asl) we begin the climb
up the mountain. Soon we pass along the opposite side of the “city of the
witches”, in the district of Kallawanka at 1761 meters (5,777'), continuing
past the massive hydroelectric plant at Huinco at 1880 meters (6,168').
Soon,
one arrives at the bridge of Autisha (2,200 meters (7,218'), where we cross a
deep ravine and begin the excessively steep climb up to the village of San
Pedro de Casta. We pass the Center of Experimental Agronomy until the dirt road
forks to the Southeast. Here we are directed to choose, either to follow the
road to Santiago de Iris and Carampoma, or continue to San Pedro. Read more...
Sacred
Forests
by
George Hunt Williamson
Excerpted
from "Road in the Sky" 1959:
"We
were greeted by all kinds of friendly people in San Pedro de Casta who followed
us up to the plateau. There were women in curious hats and bright attire,
naked, dusty children, teachers from the local school, and important
politicians. Figure 6: is the great
‘PecaGasha’ itself with a swarm of friends at its base. This will give you
an idea how colossal it really is. The entire plateau is covered by a coarse,
dry vegetation and is also covered by fog most of the time during seven months
of the year. However, between May and September the sun turns it into a
delightful place, although the nights and early mornings are very cold. The
first thing that caught my eye after I was made speechless with the sight of
the ‘Peca- Gasha’, was a cement block with a bronze plaque. It read: ASOCIACION
PERUANA DE ASTRONOMIA.
The
Peruvian Association of Astronomy determined the magnetic declination of the
plateau and an aerial photograph was taken which is now in the archives of the
Peruvian Air Ministry. Dr. Ruzo has been studying the relationship of the
symbols represented in all the stone figures and the mathematical relationship
among the figures themselves. There is no question that the position of the
sculptures on the plateau and surrounding the little lakes on top indicates a
general pre-established plan of the ancient priests and master builders. At the
four cardinal points of the plateau we find the most outstanding and important
carved figures.
I
spent many days on horseback, traveling over the entire area of Marcahuasi
(Markawasi). I can give you here only a little of what I saw, for to really
appreciate and be thrilled by the plateau, you must see it for yourself—words
are inadequate. Ouspensky, in writing of the Sphinx of Egypt, said: ‘... it had
seemed to me that it would be necessary to approach it with the full equipment
of a knowledge different from ours, with some new form of perception, some
special kind of mathematics...’
If
Ouspensky had ever seen Marcahuasi (Markawasi), he would have immediately
realized that his words were even more fitting for Peru than they were for
Egypt, for we must also approach the
strange monoliths of the plateau with a ‘knowledge different from ours... a new
form of perception... a special kind of mathematics.’ If we don’t, we are
liable to go mad. There are magnificent artificial lake systems and large
dams and canals. On the stones rising from the ancient water level are carved
figures that once cast curious shadows on the surfaces of sacred lakes.
Strangely enough, there is a small lake on the plateau today called ‘Black
Lagoon’, and out of its centre rises the perfectly carved head of a scaly
dinosaur-like monster as if it were just breaking the surface, resting its
enormous, ponderous body on the bottom.
After
studying hundreds of carvings on the plateau, Dr. Ruzo reached a startling
conclusion. But the evidence was all there. Gigantic altars that could
accommodate only very large life forms. How large? At least twelve feet tall.
Therefore, Ruzo believes Marcahuasi (Markawasi) holds important keys to the
world’s ancient mysteries—it is possibly the last ‘Sacred Forest’ in such a
state of preservation. One of the great ‘Sacred Forests’ of whispered antiquity
where the ‘gods’ met in council to decide the fate of the world.
When
you view the figures on the plateau you feel you are looking at some long forgotten
museum of the ‘Giant Gods’, for it seems that everything ever created is
represented here. There are all kinds of great birds and animals from lions and
elephants to camels and penguins—all of which never existed in South America. (See figure 7: ‘The Lion’, and Figure 8:
‘The Group of Elephants’.) To the extreme left you will notice several stone
burial ‘chulpas’ (tombs) of the Incas.
Figure 8
There
are countless human faces representing all the races of mankind. (See figure 9: which is called ‘La
Negrita’, the colored woman.) Many great stone heads bear strong
resemblance to those found on Easter Island in the Pacific Ocean, for they
possess the same features with the stone hats and all that the Island statues
are famous for. There is another curious figure exactly like Easter Island
representations. It is a great carving of a headless man with a gigantic bird
head attached to the end of his spine."
Excerpt:
“Secret
of the Andes” by
Brother Philip (George Hunt Williamson) pp. 57-61; 1961:
“We
have already spoken of the legacy for man hidden in the South American jungles
that is beyond his wildest imagination. In ancient record chambers scientific
knowledge will be found and utilized in the New Age, secrets of a very remote
past will be the incentive for magnificent development in a newer world. The
cities of the fabulous Amazonian Empire, which antedated other world
civilizations, belong to another Lost Continent but, unlike Atlantis and Mu,
this Continent is not buried under any ocean, but instead, it is buried behind
miles of Green Hell that constitute the South American jungles. These cities
have never been under water; their records therefore are well preserved in
their final resting places in the vast libraries of forgotten Paititi.
Countless treasures were brought to Paititi by informed priest-scientists when it
was known that both Lemuria and Atlantis were definitely doomed to oblivion.
What an inheritance will be found in areas where now only the sound of the
monkey and the call of the bird are known--the combined knowledge of the three
greatest empires the world has ever known.
Early
in June 1957, the Expeditionary Group of the Abbey, under the direction of the
Order of the Red Hand, made its way over difficult trails on foot and horseback
to the Marcahuasi (Markawasi) Plateau of the Andes, where it encountered a Lost
Sacred Forest or Garden of the Gods high in the Peruvian mountains. This
strange place is known by the descendants of the Huanca Indians as the home of
the wizards and Giant Gods.
On
top of the great plateau there is a large stone fortress in a remarkable state
of preservation. This was used by Inca soldiers about A.D. 1350 when they
conquered the Huancas and established military occupation of the entire region.
There are many stone chulpas of burial tombs surrounding the fortress, all of
which have been robbed. After the murder of the Inca Emperor Atahualpa at
Cajamarca, Peru, the Spanish arrived at Marcahuasi and destroyed the ancient
mummy bundles to satisfy their lust for the yellow metal. Today, only a few
bones remain in each tomb. An ancient burial cave, thousand of feet above a
valley, proved to be very important for it contained an unopened tomb that, by
some miracle, had not yet been violated. There were countless mummies inside,
but the discovery is insignificant when compared with the fantastically ancient
sculptured stones of the Marcahuasi Plateau.
This
plateau is 12,000 feet above sea level, and is shrouded in fog most of the
year, but during the months between May and September there is a bright sun and
it becomes a delightful place, although very cold at night. The many and great
sculptured stones represent an important key to the world's ancient mysteries.
Birds and animals from lions and elephants to camels and penguins which never
existed in South America have been carved in gigantic proportions. All human
races appear to be represented and many great stone heads bear resemblance to
those found on famous Easter Island in the Pacific.
Many
ancient religions are symbolized by beautiful and finely carved sphinxes, faces
and figures of forgotten gods and goddesses. The figures are immense and from
scientific calculations, it is believed they were made by a race of giant men
at least twelve feet tall. It is not yet known for certain whether they
belonged to the Cyclopean Race or not, but the strange dimensional quality of
the carvings is an indication that this may be so.
There
are many legends that exist among present-day natives in South America--the
Incas spoke of the giants, also--that tell of the giant blond men who once inhabited
the continent. These are not ordinary gigantic statues of figures, for when the
sunlight, or the moonlight, strikes them at a certain angle, you see things
that are impossible to see at any other time. The features change as you view
them at different times, under different conditions, and from different angles.
Most of the figures have three or four eyes, but no matter where you observe
them from, they always seem to present only two. If you are not at a given,
fixed point of observation you do not see the statues as they were intended to
be seen. Therefore, we had to locate the elevated platforms near the figures
that were used by the makers for observational purposes.
The
figures are carved out of granite, but are now badly eroded. Yet, they are magnificent
in their execution even today, and it takes your breath away to contemplate
them and their creators. Who were these giants? Where did they come from? Where
did they go? We will answer such questions through our research at the Abbey.
The
figures cover an area of several square miles, and reports from other parts of
South America indicate that they are to be found elsewhere, although not in
such a state of isolation or profusion as at Marcahuasi.
There
are several altars that were obviously made to be used by giant creatures, but
even more startling is the fact that something out of this world seems to be
hovering over the plateau. Almost all the time one can hear a very odd humming
sound coming from the figures, and this sound is not due to natural causes. You
feel you are dealing with something outside of man's ability to understand at
the present time, a look into another dimension of Time and Space.
When
one takes a photo of a carved figure of a very old man and observes the
negative, it appears not as an old man, but as a young and handsome youth. Who
could carve stone so that certain angles shapes will change and cast shadows
into valleys, where, as the light changes, strange creatures move as if alive?
This
race of giant beings used natural objects that seemed to bear resemblance to
known animals, and then, by carving them, they enhanced the setting. The result
is something that appears to be born right out of the soil. This was a Sacred
Forest where no one ever lived, used as it was exclusively for scientific
religious purposes. Science and religion were then joined together in Truth as
they will be again in the New Age. It is perhaps the last Sacred Forest that
remains nearly intact and unmolested by modern man. It is possible that Marcahuasi
was used by the race that later came to be known as the Ls. The Huanca Indians
still venerate Huari who was a Hercules of their legends--a giant. It appears
that a memory of the giants persisted to linger in the mythology of the Huancas
and their Huari must have originally been a great leader of the giant race. The
Huancas still celebrate strange rituals in hidden areas near the plateau,
rituals no white man has ever seen. Until some years ago, the rites were
celebrated at Marcahuasi itself.
The
most startling fact of all disclosed by the Abbey research is that when
Peruvian Government aerial photos of the plateau are studied carefully, one can
see definite, gigantic figures that are visible only from the air. Does this
mean that the giants had airships? Were the figures, as seen from the air,
markers of symbols of some sort for ships arriving from interstellar space or
other nearby planets? Marcahuasi will prove to be an important area for further
research in relation to the Cyclopean Race and the coming of the Masters from
Space.”

After learning about Markawasi, I already know in my heart
that this is the place I want to personally see before I leave Earth. I wanted
a glimpse of the works of the gods, in a very humanly perspective.
To be continued.
