Well, good to know that the BS is old-fashioned. I can't stand this new-fangled BS. ;D

No matter how it's presented, it seems that BS never goes out of style.

that link isnt working for me so i didnt get to read it, but i can only speak intelligently on the mitchell hedges skull. Im a history/archeology major/minor with my focus being in Mayan archeology. I spent a few weeks down there this summer doing my field school in Belize which is where the anna mitchell hedges skull was found. It was found at the site of Lubaantun on January 1st 1924. It was discovered by Anna Mitchell Hedges on her 17th bday while with her dad. Lubaantun was an undiscovered site previous to that, it was discovered by F.A Mitchell Hedges, Annas father, he named the site. its true about the tools for the mitchell hedges skull, there are no marks except for some grinding on the teeth. whats crazy is that the skull is two pieces, the head and the jaw, that fit together and were cut from the same single piece of quartz crystal. They were cut without any regard to the natural grain of the crystal which has never been able to be recreated even with modern tools, the crystal cracks.
Thats what leade people to think that it may be either alien, or from Atlantis. the general view among archeologists in Belize, especially my professor (Dr Terry G Powis, he discovered the earliest known use of chocolate on the planet haha) is that because it has no tool marks, it cant be Mayan. No archeologist even wants to talk about it being alien or anything else tho because the archeological community would like black list them haha, mayan archeology is a surprisingly small world. If I can get it approved though I plan on writing my term paper on the mitchell hedges skull
no matter what tho the world saw this skull in the 1920's, so we know it has existed AT LEAST that long. we havnt been able to recreate it today so even if it was made in the early 1900s and placed deep in a temple in undiscovered Mayan ruins, its still an incredible piece of craftmanship
