The Guatemala Stone Head—Evidence of Ancient Alien Worship?

Numerous artefacts crucial for understanding life’s cycle in the world as well as the link between the human species and also space beings have actually been hidden under a thick layer of debris by consistent wars that have been salering nearly endlessly.

Such an example is the big rock head found “someplace in the forest of Guatemala”. The head statue had extremely fine features: thin lips, a huge sharp nose, leaving a total feeling of excellence, its eyes were closed, however if they were open, they would be looking towards the skies. It measured a minimum of 30 feet, judging by the 3 men sitting on top of the head and also the parking lot before it. An one-of-a-kind exploration indeed, as it looked like absolutely nothing discovered in Central America up until now.

On August 16, 1986, Dr. Oscar Rafael Padilla Lara, a UFO fanatic, thinker, as well as lawyer at that time, obtained a fascinating image of the monolith. Its exact area stayed concealed, with the just well-known referrals being the date etched on the back of the photo. It was taken in 1950 by the man that possessed the land where the enormous rock head was discovered, but given that the landowner was stated dead long ago, Padila had to look for one more method to discover the exact location of the website.

In 1987, the tale of the bizarre stone head was first published in the Ancient Astronaut Culture e-newsletter “Ancient Skies”, and it triggered fairly a stir. Individuals intended to find out if the structure was only a head, or it had actually a body hidden beneath; also, the question of its specific area reappeared after a very long time. Fortunately, the write-up was read by David Hatcher Childress, an adventurous excavator who visited numerous secrets around the world, outlining them all in his “Secret Guidebook.”

This “Indiana Jones” made it his objective to discover the site of the mysterious rock sculpture, so he consulted with Padilla from whom he asked for additional information concerning the area of the anomalous sculpture.

At first, Padilla spoke of a relative that analyzed the image of the mysterious sculpture and also did well in finding a tip causing one of the many residential properties had by the Biener family members. Without any other leads readily available during that time, he registered in a harmful as well as uncertain journey that led him deep inside the forests of Guatemala in the hope of finding the detailed stone head.

“In order to locate it, I went approximately 180 kilometers from the city, towards Las Victorias, Los Encuentros, Saint Filipe Retalhuleu, on the pacific coastline of Guatemala. From there, I followed a highway for 5 kilometers, then 3 kilometers much more on a road of battered planet and also finally 5 kilometers on foot, through the jungle.”

When he finally got to the website of La Democracia, the excitement turned to distress since the statue was existing there loaded with bullet openings, with its great functions nearly indistinguishable.

“It was destroyed by revolutionaries concerning 10 years ago,” Padilla exposed. “We had actually located the statue too late. It was made use of as target practice by anti-government rebels. This totally imperfect it, kind of like the means the Sphinx in Egypt had its nose shot off by the Turks, just worse.”

After Padilla recuperated from the shocking minute, he took extra notes of what was left of the monolith that might had our history revised. The eyes, nose and also mouth were completely gone. The statue was carved from soft sandstone, most likely for highlighting its delicate traits, but because of this soft product, its fate was quickly hidden for eternity.

Ultimately, David Hatcher Childress reached the La Democracia site just to find the stone head in damages, just like Dr. Padilla illustrated. Hereafter unfavorable episode, the tale died since there was no appropriate proof delegated validate the presence of the alien-like stone head from the picture.

In order to comprehend the uniqueness of the sculpture, one need to look towards the region where the stone head was reported to have been located– La Democracia, a website currently renowned for rock heads looking skyward.

Their background is understood however– built by the Olmec civilization, which thrived between 1400 as well as 400 BC, the rock heads sitting near the community of La Democracia share no usual attributes with “Padilla’s stone head”. The twelve Olmec sculptures depict pot-bellied human numbers with level faces looking in the direction of the skies. They have a common Olmec aspect, a design entirely that’s entirely different from the fine-sculpted Padilla stone head.

The old Olmec human being predated the Maya as well as is thought to be the first to develop pyramids in Mesoamerica. Recognizing that the Olmec had the methods to carve such sculptures, is it feasible that they were likewise in charge of the anomalous rock head? If not, that were their building contractors?

A theory sustained by Phillip Coppens, a Belgian writer as well as radio host, asserts that one more old people predating or post-dating the Olmecs was responsible for the “Padilla head”. If so, it’s feasible that the only artifact left belonging to them has actually come down with the recurring battle, and possibilities for a similar discovery are slim since the area stays bothered by conflict.
