Default ANCIENT MARINERS: Andean-Mexican seagoing trade

|| Others who specialize in Pre-Columbian American archeology agree.
|| Michael Smith, associate professor of anthropology at the State
|| University of New York at Stony Brook, says "the evidence she has, the
|| evidence from metallurgy, is the strongest evidence. I don't doubt at
|| all what happened... I don't know what more you could hope for, other
|| than finding a boat with a sign that says 'this way to Acapulco'."
||
||
||
|| Hmmmm perhaps this might do instead?

||
|| Seppo,
||
|| What do you find interesting in that web site? It reiterates,
|| without a shred of evidence and no references, the story of vast
|| amounts of copper being mined by Europeans ca. 3000 BC-1250 BC,
|| and shipped to Europe from the mines in the UP of Michigan. The
|| web site's 'History' is right out of some of the more
|| speculative Mormon views of history and North American
|| archaeology, and has holes in it large enough to drive a lorry
|| train through.
||
|| So, what do you find interesting and applicable to the present
|| topic in that web page?
||
||Were such a claim to have any basis I'd expect there to be a port from
||where this copper trade (millions of tons) ? was shipped.. with sunken
||ships
||And the DNA of the visiting sailors, intermarraige and loan words.
||Pottery, tools, buildings, introduction of art, all missing.
||The roads used to carry the copper from the mines to the smelters and
||to the port and the accomodation/villages along the route.

Levitation, just as the Egytians moved the blocks for the pyramids, and the
Easter Islanders moved their statuary. Some guy in Florida built a coral castle
in the 1920s using the "technology". Saw it on TV
