Some of the world's most iconic sacred temples were built atop of the ruins of far older structures and far more ancient. What compelled early humans to rebuild in the same places again and again? Do these locations hold special power? And could they be points of ancient alien contact?
Kailasa Temple
India · Hindu (Rashtrakuta)
Ancient Aliens suggests the Kailasa Temple's monolithic carved architecture represents impossible ancient engineering that could only be achieved with alien technology or advanced knowledge. The precision and scale of the single-stone carving is presented as evidence of non-human construction methods.
Temple of the Sun at Cusco
Peru · Inca
Ancient Aliens attributes the Qorikancha's precise stonework and astronomical alignment to alien guidance, suggesting the Inca possessed extraterrestrial knowledge of engineering and celestial mechanics.
