In 1984 a large cache of over 300 artifacts was discovered by a small group of gold prospectors led by engineer Dr. Elias Sotomayor in a tunnel 300’ below ground in the jungle-covered mountains of La Maná, Ecuador. Accurate dating of the artifacts is as yet impossible by the latest methods, as the thermoluminescence technique would be unreliable due to years of exposure to sunlight since their discovery. The lithic technology and geometry presented in the artifacts denies placement in known cultural contexts from the region, suggesting that they may predate the known cultures from the region.
The symbolism presented in the forms and in inlaid designs and script on the La Maná artifacts most closely relates to those of the Sanskrit culture known from southeast Asian contexts, and has toured Europe in the Unsolved Mysteries Exhibition. The script is consistent with the logographic form of Sanskrit, the mother language from which the Mayan and Egyptian glyphs have descended. The geometric analysis given herein suggests that the La Maná artifacts encode fractal information regarding the resonant properties of calcite mineral, informing the design function of the Orion pyramids of Giza, Egypt - the production of Electrum water.
The La Maná site (0.95°S 79.18°W) is 7,470 miles from Giza; a distance that is exactly 30.0% of the Earth’s circumference. The finds have defied categorization among any known culture from South America, exhibiting iconography consistent with Sanskrit traditions foreign to the region. The place name itself is an ancient one, likely a remnant of the prior Sanskrit inhabitants for whom the word mana meant “mind” or “mental body”. The significance of this name may become more clear as the artifacts reveal their encoded psychoacoustic geometry. Most amazing are the representations of the Great Pyramid at Giza, a King Cobra (a snake known to exist only in southeast Asia) and an engraved global map of the present continents of the world and other landmasses now submerged. Advanced technological features are apparent in the stonework, including magnetic zero-point effects and inlaid lines that fluoresce under ultraviolet light.
The artifacts defy any simple explanation, revealing that the technological capabilities of ancient man were millennia in advance of that used by industrial man. The group of over 300 objects has remained in Ecuador in the private collection of German Villamar for over a decade since their discovery by Sotomayor, a gift of encoded knowledge from a teacher to student. This analysis of the enigmatic artifacts will focus primarily on the implications of the geometry represented by their forms and inlaid patterns in an attempt to solve the mystery veiled by the cultural diaspora that succeeded the genius of the Sanskrit mother-culture that flourished below the surface of the Earth….
