An Ancient X-ray Machine
There is also a quite remarkable rock painting that can be found in the caves of Toro Muerto in
Peru that closely resembles a figure with raised arms holding what appears to be an X-ray plate of
the thorax. I have been unable to obtain of photograph of the painting but apparently the ribs,
chest cavity and a central column resembling the spine are all clearly visible on the plate the
figure is holding. Now what on earth could that be doing there?
A Fossilized Human Shoe Print
A most amazing artifact was discovered in Antelope Springs, Utah by William J. Meister in
June of 1968. Meister split open a two-inch-thick slab of rock with his hammer and the rock fell
open "like a book." revealing a shoeprint of a human on one side with trilobites right in the print
itself (fig.38). This artifact is extremely significant because this is not a footprint, no, no, no, it’s a

shoeprint! The other half of the rock slab in turn, showed an almost perfect mold of the print and
fossils. The shoeprint is 10 1/4 inches long and 3 1/2 inches wide; the heel is indented slightly
like the sole of a modern shoe and seems to have crushed a living trilobite. The Obvious problem
the artifact creates is that trilobites lived between 300 and 600 million years ago yet here is
evidence that a person wearing a shoe once crushed one beneath his heel. The heel of the fossil
print even displays fine stitching similar to that found on a modern leather shoe. Go figure...
The Dropa Stones
There are very view artifacts more mystifying than the Dropa stones. The tale of the stones is
quite an amazing story and some time should be given for a reasonable account.
I just love this story.
Our tale begins in 1938 high in the BayanKara-Ula Mountains on the border between China
and Tibet. A group of archeologists, led by a Professor Chi Pu Tei, were exploring a series of
interlinked caves when, much to their surprise, they came upon a collection of neatly arranged
graves within the cave system. The graves contained within them a number of somewhat unusual
skeletal remains and the scientists at first surmised that they had discovered a new species of ape.
However, since it is unreasonable to conclude that apes buried each other it was deduced that they
skeletons could only be of an unusual and possibly hitherto unknown race of human beings. The
