Man hunted dinosaurs, and those hunted man …
We already firmly know that most of the Ica stones (the so-called collection of Dr. Cabrera) are not a modern fake - this was confirmed by the "film" (oxide patina) formed on them and unambiguously indicating the deep antiquity of the images applied to them. At the same time, there are several periods of making such stones, the time ranges from 2700 to 6600 BC. But what exactly are these images able to convey to us, contemporaries?..
All Ica stones are shaped like river boulders, mineralogically defined as andesite (andesite is a volcanic granite originating from the Andes mountain system). They vary in color. The predominant technique of images on Ica stones is engraving. The lines of the drawing have an average depth of 1 mm and a width of 1.5–2 mm. But the quality of the engraving technique differs significantly on different samples. This suggests that the "engraving artists" were different, including in skill.
Many have heard that on the Ica stones (according to the most conservative estimates, their number exceeds 15 thousand copies) there are drawings of dinosaurs simultaneously with people (moreover, some images have "corrected" the mistakes of paleontologists and are very accurate!), Which baffles science and forced this or otherwise to question the stones … More precisely, their ancient origin.
But nothing particularly surprising, in fact, this is not! On the one hand, ancient people could really catch certain types of dinosaurs and depict this "wonder", as they say, from nature. On the other hand, by themselves, these stones most of all resemble a kind of "encyclopedia", where various scenes and characters of the present, past are depicted … Many other species of extinct animals are also depicted there (for example, the crustaceans that preceded the dinosaurs!). Our books also have illustrations, for example, dragons, but this does not mean that we observed them personally …
Although individual images on the stones are able to assure that some part (just like that!) Of the drawings was made from nature. These Ica stones are the most detailed. There are numerous scenes depicting a man hunt for a dinosaur (with primitive tools), as, for example, there was a hunt for mammoths … The drawings of dinosaurs in the form of "domestic animals" are striking. harnessed and domesticated by ancient people. Fantasy - or?..
But don't get hung up on dinosaurs alone!

First of all, the people depicted on the Ica stones in their appearance are quite consistent with the "culture of the Neolithic": skins, feathers (but that's okay - they don't meet them by their clothes!) And primitive tools - clubs, spears, arrows, etc. Nothing high-tech in this aspect! Which confirms that the drawings were made by people about people. The images are definitely not "gods", and the "gods" (even having used a lot of their favorite wine) would not have thought of putting such hunting scenes on the stones … Agree, an important fact!
However, in full cut with this on the stones there are a number of scenes of a medical, astronomical nature and other areas of knowledge - which are just difficult and simply impossible to pick up without technology! Then, perhaps they were received from the "gods"?.. This would just explain the clear gap between the primitive and not at all related to such.
So, we have stones with images of horse-drawn carts. It seems to be nothing special. But in Mesoamerica people didn't know the wheel! Only rare "wheeled" figurines have survived. Perhaps ancient scenes are depicted on the stones - when the wheel was not yet "banned"?.. After all, they clearly refused a convenient device not on their own.
And the representatives of the ancient culture, who left the Ica stones, still knew wheeled transport and draft, knew how to use it. And not only horses were used as riding. On single stones, you can find drawings depicting people riding an elephant or camel, as well as on other ungulates, whose species it is sometimes difficult to determine.
Another curious moment. If the Ica stones are an encyclopedia, a collection of knowledge from different times, then why is there no difference in the depiction of people, their clothes, tools and weapons? It is everywhere at the same level - primitive.
Almost everywhere people are depicted in profile. Full face - literally a few stones. A distinctive feature is a huge, strongly protruding humped nose. In many drawings, the prominent chin is emphasized. The images of the eyes are very conventional; they have a slightly elongated almond shape. For some reason, the images of the ears are missing. Plump lips (African features?..) can be noted.
People are depicted half-naked almost everywhere. Of the items of clothing, as a rule, only a headdress made of feathers and a “loincloth” are present …
