Chi Pu Tei, a professor of archaeology at Beijing University, directed the archaeological survey of the series of interlinking caves. In a report he noted that the "caves" may have been artificially carved, and were more like a complex system of tunnels and underground storerooms. The walls were squared and glazed, as if cut into the mountain with a source of extreme heat. Inside the caves were several ancient, but neatly arranged burial sites, and in them the skeletal remains of a strange people.

He found the skeletons to be about 4 feet 4 inches tall, with 'oversized' heads in relation to their otherwise 'slender' frame. At first he suggested that these might be the remains of an unknown species of mountain gorilla! His fellow academicians ridiculed his published findings, "Who ever heard of apes burying one another?" but "Yet, what kind of human was this?"

More discoveries made further in the total of 716 caves all but ruled out the idea that these were apes. On the walls our carved pictograms of the heavens were found: the sun, the moon, the stars, and the Earth with lines of dots that connected them. Then his team made "the most incredible discovery of all." Half buried in the dirt floor of each cave they found the disks, referred to as "odd stone disks" and described as "obviously fashioned by the hand of an intelligent creature, with approximately nine inches in diameter and three-quarters of an inch thick. In the exact center was a perfectly round, 3/4" hole, and etched in its face was a fine groove spiraling out from the center to the rim, making the disk look for all the world like some kind of primitive phonograph record

Dropa stones...

Yep, they've been discussed a lot here. A search should yield a ton of great info, but unfortunately, they are likely a hoax of a fairly normal sort...the one where such an artifact is claimed, and yet the current whereabouts of it are "unknown". Likewise, any checking into actual witnesses of this will result in nothing....

If you're in the US, the History Channel (I think) had a show recently on the Dropa Stones. I'm sure that they will replay it again soon.

Hi,

Pu Tei has never existed-
