I was reading about the Ica stones last week and it's an interesting story. Apparently, they're fairly common and wash up on some shore or another often. One of the local retired doctors saw a fellow native with one and inquired about it. The native explained that (for some reason) the cartels pay money for them so the locals will sell them to the cartels when the stones are found. The doctor was fascinated by them and asked around, offering to buy several stones for the US equivalent of $50.00. He showed them to some museums but it's illegal to have archaeological finds in his country and he got in a bit of trouble (facing prison time!) so he said that he made them (which is not illegal). No one asked him to demonstrate making them and he was not known to be artistic before he came in possession of the stones but, realizing he may lose his freedom, he found a local artist and commissioned him to make some that look just like them. He still retains possession of the original stones (and apparently still buys from the locals when they find washed up stones) but he keeps those separate from the commissioned works. He's between a rock and a hard place legally (no pun intended). He can't say they're authentic or he goes to jail and he can't say they're fake or his reputation is ruined so he says he commissions "art". He does sell the commissioned ones but not the original stones even though he will show them to interested parties (Graham Hancock, etc.).

Don’t all of them countries do? You have to report it, unless wanna get some ridiculous 250k fine for a supposedly ancient piece of junk.

It’s like you are not supposed to find what’s not supposed to exist. Sure they have to be able to have full control over what people find.

I didn't know that. I always thought you can collect any items you find that is not private or state property or illegal weapons and drugs. But yeah, just another control tactic.

Pretty sure for private property it’s gonna be legally positioned like it’s all yours. In reality, if you discover some Ancient Egypt in your back 40, I bet it won’t be yours for long.

Most public land in the US, if you find something historic, you have to report it to the archies.
On federal land, you can get in trouble just for looking for it, same with some states.

I’m still impressed by this artificial petrification process. Wonder now, how many of those dino bones were not really fossilized prior to making it to the museums.

I would hope not much. I've learned too many dinosaurs and other ancient creatures and love them to not be the case lol.

I wonder if there is a reason for this?

I like how things fall in place sometimes. Probably so. Here is another map from this topic. US westbound advancement time schedule.

The federal government basically owns the entire state of Nevada... What's out there?

Korben, maybe a new thread on why the United States of America changed the laws with the " Congressional Act of 1871 ". It allowed the United States to own the states land. Which is forbidden in the Original Constitution. Why, and Why 1871?

I totally support a new thread. The topic sounds very interesting. This one is not something I have sufficient knowledge of.

Will gladly participate and search along.

Yeah, and leave this thread for the fossils. xD

So I've been subscribed to PBS Eons channel and it's all about the evolution of animals and fossilization. I love they way they present their content, and also ancient history so what's not to love lol. I would like to see if anyone has any thoughts about it.

Sorry I wasn't responding to your post; as a horseman/woman I never believed a rat toed marsupial evolved into the 17 hand hooved beast I ride. Especially when evolution tends to make things smaller. The pic made me laugh.

I forget where I found the link, but there was a site that described the effects on an outside planet (Nibiru/X/...) that when it makes a close approach, through the magnetic connections and such can cause the earth to create water and oil and more form the elements within it. Hard to explain, but it made sense when they showed the data and processes.
