FPN – History & Culture Documentaries | Amazonian Expedition: Petroglyphs of the Sacred Valley of Cotundo - Napo, Ecuador Rainforest 🇪🇨 @Freedompressnews-Documentaries | Uploaded April 2022 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Research expedition to document and record the petroglyphs of the Sacred Valley of Cotundo, Archidona, Tena and Puerto Napo, Ecuador 🇪🇨 Amazon Rainforest | The Investigations of 2014 (video release April 2022)
Legends among the local natives suggest that these petroglyphs could have ben inspired by yagé or ayahuasca, a psychotropic visionary concoction that is used to this day by the Shamans or Yachak of the area. Many aspects of the ancient way of life and beliefs of the Pre-Hispanic Cultures of this area have been memorized in the drawings made by the hands of the Yachaks (Shamans) in these petroglyphs which constitute, respectively, the heritage and cultural transmission of a people, for future generations and thus warrant study and preservation.
The glyphs refer to those aspects related to the life of the tribal group, their way of perceiving the world and their historical reality to which they belonged, namely: Origins, Mythological Representations, Totemic References, Religious Symbolism, cultural and magical-symbolic representation, Institutionalization of rites and memory of local facts, Sexual Physiology (fertility, procreation, growth, incest, etc., Marriage and tribal laws, Exogamy, alliances, tribal or territorial limits, guides for migrant groups and indicators of the best hunting and fishing areas, ecological adaptation and food, Aboriginal meeting center and Yachaks (Shamans) Center, Astronomical (registration of constellations, planets, stars, etc.), Meteorological or atmospheric phenomena, Death and cemeteries indicators.
According to the early investigations carried out by Father Pedro Porras, in which he presents a detailed study of all the petroglyphs found and first documented by him, both in Cotundo, Archidona, Tena and Puerto Napo, the investigations manage to identify the existence of four styles of glyphs and that he was able to date them thanks to the comparisons he made between petroglyphs and drawings found on clay pots and other artifacts found in the province of Napo as the following styles pertaining to dates as such; “match stick” style to 300 B.C. Preceramic and Formative Period. “closed contour” style 300 B.C. to 300 AD Preceramic and Formative Period. “abstract” style 300 AD to 1200 AD Integration Period. and “figurative” style 1200 AD up to Colonial Period.

Ancient Runways?.. After watching this, what do you think of the hypothesis of Erich von Däniken that these enigmatic lines in the Nazca desert of Peru had to have been created by ancient astronauts?

The Nazca Lines /ˈnæzkɑː/ are a group of very large geoglyphs formed by depressions or shallow incisions made in the soil of the Nazca Desert in southern Peru. They were created between 500 BCE and 500 CE.
Most lines run straight across the landscape, but there are also figurative designs of animals and plants, made up of lines. The individual figurative geoglyph designs measure between 0.4 and 1.1 km (.2 and .7 mi) across. The combined length of all the lines is over 1,300 km (808 mi), and the group cover an area of about 50 km2 (19 sq mi). The lines are typically 10 to 15 cm (4 to 6 in) deep. They were made by removing the top layer of reddish-brown iron oxide-coated pebbles to reveal a yellow-grey subsoil. The width of the lines varies considerably, but over half are slightly over one-third meter (just over 1 foot) wide. In some places they may be only a foot (30.5 cm) wide, and in others reach 6 feet (1.8 m) wide.
Some of the Nazca lines form shapes that are best seen from the air (~1,500 ft, 457 m), though they are visible from the surrounding foothills and other high places. The shapes are usually made from one continuous line. The largest ones are about 370 m (1,200 ft) long. Because of its isolation and the dry, windless, stable climate of the plateau, the lines have mostly been preserved naturally. Extremely rare changes in weather may temporarily alter the general designs. As of 2012, the lines are said to have been deteriorating because of an influx of squatters inhabiting the lands.
The figures vary in complexity. Hundreds are simple lines and geometric shapes; more than 70 are zoomorphic designs of animals such as a hummingbird, spider, fish, condor, heron, monkey, lizard, dog, and a human. Other shapes include trees and flowers. Scholars differ in interpreting the purpose of the designs, but in general, they ascribe religious significance to them. They were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994. (Source: Wikipedia)
