Chapter 316 Reincarnation Pool
It can be found in Tiahuanaco, not far from this ancient ruins of Puma Pun.
What was the level of the Incas at the same time?
Now these photos are displayed.
For the Incas during this period, these stones were the technical crafts they should have.
"Look at these stones, no matter their size or cutting techniques.
It is obviously to the extent that it can be processed by hand.
It is a completely different concept than the ancient ruins of Puma Peng.
But do you think this is all Tiahuanaco has? "Ye Zhen shook his head, with a hint of tranquility in his eyes.
"The whole of Tiahuanaco is a huge stone city.
The entire city is built of stones.
Obviously this is like the Incas who inherited the technology from the ancient ruins of Puma Pung.
Why do you say this?
Because Tiahuanaco is a religious place of worship.
And there is a trapezoidal Akapana pyramid here. ”
Ye Zhen's voice aroused everyone's interest.
"Actually, pyramids are not unique to ancient Egypt.
There are different pyramids in many places in the world.
Especially in places like America, like the Mayan pyramids.
There are many pyramid-style buildings here.
It’s just the one that everyone is most familiar with and understands now.
As long as the pyramids are mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is the Egyptian pyramids.
Pyramid of La Danta, Guatemala.
The Peruvian Sun and the Pyramid of Yuliang.
Borobudur, Indonesia.
Pyramids of Nubia, Sudan.
Pyramid of Cestius, Italy.
The Great Tower of Ur in Iraq.
Pyramid of Gemma, Spain.
The Pyramids of Guachimontones, Mexico, and more. "Ye Zhen said many pyramids that no one had heard of in one breath.
The audience looked at Ye Zhen on the screen in shock.
“Are there so many pyramids in the world?”
"I thought this pyramid was only found in Egypt."
"How come there are so many forms of pyramids?"
Some archaeologists and historians are also learning about it for the first time.
It turns out that there are so many pyramids in the world.
It's as if buildings like the pyramids have some kind of magic power.
Only to see Ye Zhen continue to speak.
"The difference between the Akapana Pyramid at Tiahuanaco and the Egyptian Pyramid is.
This pyramid is trapezoidal.
On this pyramid, although it is now destroyed.
The upper part is gone, only a base remains.
But we can still see how glorious the original Akapana Pyramid was at the remaining doorway. ”
A square stone gate stood there.
The entire gate is very neatly arranged, as if trying to imitate the feeling of some stones in Puma Pungu.
Although they look very similar.
But the two are basically the same thing.
Because both in terms of materials and processing accuracy.
The two are incomparable, but it can still be seen that the styles of the two are in the same vein.
"Because this Tiawanaku ruins is a city built to worship Puma Pungu.
At its peak, it could accommodate 20,000 people living and surviving here at the same time. ”
A city of 20,000 people could be said to be a miracle back then.
And this is at an altitude of 3,700 meters.
It is not easy to feed such a large number of people.
After all, the Inca Empire had a population of 8 million at its peak.
It can be said that it is also a hegemon-level existence on the American continent.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be called the Inca Empire.
There is a problem here.
How on earth do they feed so many people?
Some historians have raised questions.
"It's not easy to raise a large group of people in a place like this."
"That's right, and the eating, drinking, and urination of this group of people is a problem."
"How on earth did they do it?"
To feed a large number of people, food is the biggest problem.
However, their questions were quickly answered.
"We can see that at the top of this pyramid, there is a place similar to a large pool.
And going down the pool, we can see some irrigation systems.
And the drainage channels made of stones are very advanced.
Are you curious about how such a large group of people supported themselves at that time?
Because they used the terrace planting method.
And through the pool at the top of the pyramid, it irrigates all the places below.
The concept of drainage and construction of the pool was very sophisticated at the time. ”
Under Ye Zhen's description, it is difficult for everyone to imagine.
A civilization that had not even developed bronze ware.
It's actually possible to do this.
And everyone can see it in some of the photos displayed by Ye Zhen.
There are beautiful stone and human head statues scattered around here.
Some of these statues have fallen to the ground.
Some have gone through the vicissitudes of time and still stand in place.
Some viewers have focused on these stone statues.
“These stone statues look very well made.”
"But why do these people look so strange?"
"The Incas don't seem to look like this."
Some viewers noticed some stone statues in the picture.
These stone statues are just stone pillars, with entire figures carved out on the stone pillars.
After some anthropologists saw the appearance of these stone pillars.
They came to a conclusion.
"These are obviously not local Incas."
"Could it be that this is the god they worship?"
"But why do their gods look different from themselves?"
This is very strange.
Some scientists also noticed that during the Inca Empire at that time.
Such irrigation technology and manufacturing processes.
Although everyone feels it is incredible, this is still within the scope of human power.
"Compared with the previous Napuma Peng ancient ruins, although this place is indeed amazing."
"But not to that outrageous level."
"It seems like they have only inherited a little bit of superficial technology."
They don't know why they have such an illusion.
The loss and regression of technology.
Ye Zhen then pointed to the stone statues and said: "I believe everyone has discovered it.
There are many stone statues scattered around here.
Some have been destroyed.
There were even some stones that were used directly as building materials by the Westerners who invaded here.
What we see here now are just ruins.
But these remaining things are enough to amaze us. There is a problem here, and that is the people on these stone pillars.
Nothing like the local Incas.
Because if you look carefully, you can see that the people on these stone statues have beards. ”
After Ye Zhen's suggestion, everyone was a little confused.
The audience doesn't understand.
"Beard? What's wrong with having a beard."
"That's right, isn't it normal to grow a beard?"
But some anthropologists do know.
As long as everyone has seen photos of the Incas, you will know.
There are still some remaining Native Americans.
Undoubtedly, they all have one characteristic, no matter men, women, old or young, they all have beards.
This is true whether they are young or old, this is their characteristic.
So in their legend back then.
Their gods came from across the ocean with white beards.
After seeing the Spaniards back then, they thought it was the arrival of gods.
Ye Zhen said here: "In every religion in the world, the gods that everyone believes in.
They should all look the same as their own race.
Just like the gods we Chinese people worship are Chinese people.
The gods that black people worship themselves are black people.
It’s impossible to say that I’m going to draw a white person.
Because in everyone's consciousness, gods should look the same as their own race.
This is normal.
Why is it different among the Incas?
Their race obviously does not grow beards, but the gods they worship and depict do have beards.
What does this mean?
It shows that this god is not a figment of their imagination, but a realistic sculpture.
If this god is their imagination, this god should be the same as themselves.
There shouldn't be any beard. ”
In fact, this is consistent with what Ye Zhen said before.
Because the Inca Empire was one of the three major ancient civilizations on the American continent.
In fact, it is all the result of the Yin people's eastward journey.
So the gods they saw were not figments of their imaginations.
But they really exist, so their gods are realistic.
And those with beards, because they had beards when Youhouxi came here.
"Except for the Akapana Pyramid and the surrounding stone statues.
There is also a sacrificial square here, inside this sacrificial square.
There is a very strange wall. "Another scene appeared behind Ye Zhen.
This is a sunken square. There is nothing special about the rectangular square at first glance.
But if you look carefully, there are some stones on the walls.
There are many heads embedded in this wall.
It seems so weird.
"You can see these heads embedded in the walls.
Each of these heads is a different color.
They look like different colors of people.
It's very strange here. The Incas were clearly the only ones on the American continent at that time.
But in their legends, they have the concept of four colored races.
Red, black, white and yellow also correspond to the concept of the four elements, earth, wind, water and fire. ”
This is the same concept as Buddhism.
Apparently it was the concept of earth, wind, water, and fire that Huishen brought with him when he traveled eastward.
But some Incas back then had never seen a white person, let alone a black person.
Just like we see a foreigner with a different skin color on the road now.
We will also feel very curious.
Not to mention the Incas back then.
So how did they know that there were four colored races in the world at that time?
And built such a place.
"And have you noticed that this square is sunken?"
"It's like a bath." Ye Zhen's voice seemed to be filled with magic, and people couldn't help but be attracted.
"Because it's a local legend."
"This sunken square is actually a pool of reincarnation."
"As long as people die, their souls will be washed clean in this pool of reincarnation."
"Then wait for the reincarnation in the next life."
The concept of six paths of reincarnation is obviously a Buddhist thing.
This can also show that Monk Huishen really came here back then.
In order to promote Buddhism, Monk Huishen did everything he could.
However, these things will be combined with each other over time and with the local people.
Something new is born.
"Actually, there is a legend circulating locally."
“Local people say that they did not build the Puma Pungu ruins.”
"It was built tens of thousands of years ago, perhaps longer, by a group of gods who descended from the sky."
"They built the city of Tiahuanaco in order to worship the gods."
"But what can be confirmed was before those Westerners invaded here."
"This city of Tiahuanaco has existed for tens of thousands of years."
Ye Zhen's words made everyone confused.
This city of Tiahuanaco has existed for tens of thousands of years?
How is it possible.
Some archaeologists and historians immediately stood up.
"This is impossible, how is it possible!"
So do anthropologists.
Because according to current mainstream science and historical records.
Our human beings have developed from the birth of agriculture to the present.
It only takes about ten thousand years.
Even our human civilization developed to the present around 7000 to 8000 years ago.
So before that, it only takes ten thousand years.
In fact, it is enough to give a civilization enough time to develop.
It has developed to the point where we are.
So you guess in the blank period of our humanity, the one hundred thousand years.
Could it be that civilization has already developed?
As for why we can't find those traces of civilization now.
There are several possibilities.
The first is time, time can baptize and wash away everything.
If humans began to disappear at this moment, it would be less than 10,000 years.
Everything built by humans will disappear without a trace.
The second is that it has actually been discovered a long time ago, but no one can believe it.
And official mainstream science doesn’t admit it either.
The third type is that they still exist, but they have not been discovered by us.
Some normal viewers felt like they were going crazy.
"This is different from what I have learned since childhood."
"Didn't we start to develop little by little?"
"Super ancient civilization! Prehistoric ruins! Super powers!"
"I just said, if the world was really so ordinary, how boring it would be."
"So which round of civilization are we in now?"
Ning Xiu remembered a very popular movie 11 years ago - "2012".
It was precisely because of this movie that the Mayan civilization became very popular.
