Pumapunku, Bolivia: Part of the Tiwanaku complex near Lake Titicaca, Pumapunku features massive, intricately cut stone blocks weighing up to 130 tons, fitted together with precision-engineered joints. Built over 1,500 years ago by a pre-Incan civilization, the site’s construction techniques—such as interlocking H-blocks and diamond-shaped cuts—appear too advanced for the era. The stones were transported from distant quarries across rugged terrain. No written records explain their methods. While archaeologists attribute the work to skilled stonemasons using stone tools and manpower, the site’s sophistication fuels theories of lost technology or extraterrestrial influence, though these lack evidence.
