Yes, the Ica (read Ekha) stones. This is funny, but at two years old,
when asked my name - I would answer - Ica (Ekha :) Maybe, one day,
I willl discover scientific mathematics encoded into the Ica stones.
At this time, my working hypothesis is that this is indeed the case.

(new comment - Unfortunately, Ica stones look like fake to me, nowadays..)

Yes, the fact looms significant. We get a complex connection here.
Firstly, the Seal of Atlantis joins La Marche/France, and Nasca/Peru.
Then we get an intensifier in that La Marche and Ica/Peru are both
engravings on stone. Plus, they are numerous. Plus, they are shocking..

And my interpretation would tend to see Gods as invitees to the
table/mountain, one way, or another.

Hey! As our friends from the orthodox element would say: You take
two 20-ton blocks, and you RUB THEM BACK AND FORTH, till they fit..
A great advantage is that you don't have to be gentle. Please, accept
it:)

Don't say that. But, the very fact of such structures  begging for
the question of possible Hi-Tech intervention - should tell us, how
discouragingly dear, and counter-productive such efforts would be.
We would not venture into Pyramid-construction, because someone like
the UN, or some countries would surely be ruined financially.

That was Edward Leedskalnin of the Coral Castle fame.

He starved to death. When building the castle, he weighed in at  90-pounds!
Clearly, the man had no brawn, just pure brains. He also must have had
brought  with him his arcane knowledge from.. Was it Estonia?.
He never said that he built the castle for his nostalgic love.
Rather, he said that he did it for "His Sweet Sixteen".
His expression can be interpreted differently, if you consider
that "sweet" can also mean the same as in "sweet spot".
Did I hit a 'sweet spot' there? :)

In conjunction with a number (16), we get other numerous possibilities,
or if you like 'remote likelihoods'. One of them is interpreting 16,
as originating from the first two digits of the Phi-ratio.
He did it to immortalize his secret knowledge, to celebrate the power
of the Dodecahedron, or something like that. I don't know.

But, I wonder - Could all this be connected to the brain power alone?
Through perfect concentration the imagination creates devices, which can
then influence the external world. Let's say that you can model the
Pyramid in your mind, will you then exercise the Pyramid Power in some
way? This alchemical experimentation might lead to something..

Unfortunately, you are right.
