Well, we got to South America. By tradition, a photo for the fastest "entry":
Roman antiquities. Figure: 1. Chilean antiquities. The outskirts of the city of Santiago. Something jumped inside, then you are welcome to our hut.
I decided to make this post full of bare facts, without particularly retelling the official story, just briefly outline the general outlines, as well as the deep roots of the population of South America. The main body of information is illustrations, images, a kind of photo gallery of interesting and unusual things associated with South America, and specifically with that culture, which, in my humble opinion, occupied almost the whole world. Also, I will not resist and demonstrate some interesting points related to Cuba and its central city of Havana. In particular, an interesting device is shown on one of the lithographs, which once again confirms the assumption that the columns in cities were not placed just like that, but had a very specific functionality. So, let's begin.
And again about the white gods
In South and Central America, the cult of the White Gods enjoyed particular respect. White Gods occupied the highest rungs of the hierarchical ladder in the numerous pantheons of Gods in South and Central America.

The legends of the white race that created the first centers of culture in Central and South America have survived among the Indian peoples to this day. Who these bearded people belonging to the white race were, and where they came from, remains a mystery.
Back in the first half of the 20th century, it was believed that the Indians belonging to the white race in America did not exist, and never existed, but in 1925 a sensational discovery occurred that radically changed the prevailing opinion.
On the territory of Peru, in the areas of Pampa de Santo and Cabeza Larga (Paracas Peninsula), traces of the oldest culture in South America have been discovered, which originated about 8500 years ago. Peruvian archaeologist Julio Cesaro Tello conducted excavations on the Paracas Peninsula, and discovered two grandiose necropolises, in which at least more than four hundred mummies were buried, which had been stored in the sands of the peninsula for 2500 years. Most of the mummies had the characteristic features of the white race and had red or straw-colored hair. Scientists who have been studying this culture for a long time suggest that it was this civilization that created the famous geoglyphs on the Nazca plateau in the 5th century BC.
The mysterious people believed to belong to the white race and who created the unique culture of Paracas are not the only race of white people that existed in the territory of ancient Peru. In the inaccessible high-mountainous regions, there was another mysterious people who had all the signs of a white race, the Incas were well aware of them, and even the Spanish conquerors knew about this mysterious white people. The Incas called them Chachapoya, which means "those who live behind the clouds." The forgotten people were remembered again when a well-preserved mummy of a woman was found in one of the mountainous regions of Peru, which had signs of belonging to the white race. The mummy lay in the cave for over 600 years, next to it was a child's mummy and various things, fabric, ceramics and even jewelry.
Outwardly, the Chachapoya looked like Europeans, had high stature, white skin and blonde hair, men wore beards. It is believed that the Chachapoya culture was the most developed in the Amazon. Their empire predated the Inca empire, and occupied almost the entire territory of the Andes.
The neighbors were respectful of the white people - Chachapoya, they were considered excellent warriors who appreciated freedom, confirmation of this is the fact that the Incas for four centuries could not conquer the mountain empire of Chachapoya. White Indians lived in highland and well-fortified villages, most of which were inaccessible. It was difficult for the Incas to wage war with Chachapoya, and the conquest of the highland kingdom dragged on for many centuries. This happened only in 1460, when the last fortress of the white race Cuelap fell, most of the Chachapoya people were destroyed, and the surviving representatives of this once powerful people were settled in different parts of the vast Inca empire.
The confrontation between the two powerful nations ended after the invasion of Peru by the Spanish conquistadors. Chachapoya had a chance to take revenge on their enemies for the destruction of their kingdom, and they provided military assistance to the Spaniards who managed to conquer the Inca empire largely thanks to this assistance. The Spaniards recognized that White Indians were valiant warriors and respected Chachapoya. But Chachapoya's merits to the Spaniards did not save the white Andes race from death. Over the course of 200 years, their number has greatly decreased, mainly from those diseases that the Spaniards brought from the Old World, and the survivors soon mixed with other peoples. That is how the history of the last white race in South America ended tragically.
The oldest population of Easter Island is Rapanuitsy.
The Rapanui had a hieroglyphic script (kohau rongo-rongo), the origin of which is unknown. This letter is similar to many hieroglyphic scripts: Ancient Chinese, Egyptian, Cretan, Proto-Indian. A similar letter in India disappeared for a very long time, but on about. Easter was preserved. This is a unique case for Polynesia.
That's what figurative thinking is.
The local name of Easter Island is Rapa - Nui (from the Rapanui language it means Great Rapa, is it by chance Ra - light, Pa - Father? I think not.)
Well, now, will this seem random? Photos of the city of Santiago, mostly 19th century:
What kind of peasants are they in antique togas?
No, this is not the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg, it is still the same Santiago:
But this photo is very valuable as it shows the building without "make-up". I saw such thin red bricks and characteristic masonry in photos in Pompeii, Rome, and Kiev during my many walks, and everywhere the same thing. EVEN THE BRICKS WERE SERIAL PRODUCTION WITHIN THE PLANET EARTH, in one of the future articles I will show this more clearly.
Pay attention to the base of the bridge, and its impressive size, and estimate how much construction work has been done. Can compete with Roman aqueducts.
Moreover, in 1779, judging by the signature on Wiki, it already stands:
And who is this lady? Isn't she some kind of goddess? No, how could the Spanish Christians allow such a pagan bacchanalia in a city that they themselves founded? It's just an image of Spain, that's all.
Panorama and layout. Again, everything is under the ruler.
No, this is not Mercury, it seemed to you. This is a statue of Pedro di Caldemona, famous (then you can say whatever you like) in the image of an ancient Roman god, well, how else is Kutuzov in St. Petersburg, or Suvorov in the image of Mars.
This Neptune will still meet us.
As if from the paintings of Piranesi embodied in reality.
In the background, a piece of the wall is very reminiscent of the "prong" of a star fortress. It has not survived to this day.
And again the pantheon of gods. Athena, Mercury, Nike - these are only those that I managed to get to know on the go.
I can not help but share a photo of Pskov in order to complement the overall picture even more fully:
And now Buenos Aires.
Athena again.
And here you can see "The Antique Cemetery in Buenos Aires".
Perfectionists, where are you?
For these photos of Buenos Aires and Santiago, I would like to express my gratitude to the author of the "Notes of a Boring Man" blog.
Sao Paulo city, Brazil.
The columns are very similar to Isaac's columns, only smaller.
Uruguay, Montevideo.
And now Cuba and the "monument" I promised:
This miracle is located in front of the facade of the cathedral, strictly in the center. This pattern was discovered at the time by ZigZag. The fence is more like a fence, so that curious people would not climb during the operation of the device. It's like an inscription in a transformer - don't get in, it'll kill you. Around the column, we see a spirally twisted wire in insulation, which is connected to a kind of bell from a gramophone. There can be no question of a monument here, except perhaps a monument to electricity. I have 2 subjective versions of the assignment:
1. Loudspeaker
2. Ionizer
Further Havana in all its glory.
This lithograph of Havana, as well as the previous one in Sydney, is shown for contrast.
The windows are redesigned for doors.
Theater of Havana with Nika at the top.
But this drawing suggests that there used to be a "star" wall around Havana, like in Turin, for example.
And here's what's left.
* The well-known power plant *
Wow, what antennas are up there! And again the entrance for the giant.
Balls, balls, balls.
Another contrast is the wooden fence separating "mine" from "your".
And of course the layout.
By the way, if you have already touched on the topic of stars, is there anything left in South America? Of course yes yes yes.
Venezuela.
Arc de Triomphe in Caracas.
Castillo de San Carlos de la Barra. Maracaibo, Venezuela.
Сastillo de San Carlos de Borromeo, Venezuela.
The conquistadors dispersed in earnest.
New Amsterdam, Guyana.
La Punta, Peru.
Cartagena, Colombia.
The boundaries are expanding and expanding.
All health and sober mind)
