What Archaeology Says

A plateau in the Andes at 4,000 meters elevation containing natural rock formations shaped by millennia of wind and water erosion. Pareidolia — the human tendency to see faces and figures in random shapes — accounts for the perceived sculptures. Archaeologist Daniel Ruzo popularized the idea of carved figures in the 1950s, but mainstream geology attributes the shapes to erosion.
