All these have been discussed on ATS beore.
The Ica stones are fake (the artisans, who confessed, are members of the local village and it was done because they got money from tourists. The
dinosaur pictures are anatomically incorrect.
Anktythera mechanism is real and apparently was used as a calendar for the Olympics. It dates to about 200 AD.
Balls with grooves are actually natural formations and found elsewhere.
"Aircraft murals" are partially defaced writing in a temple. The Egyptians didn't do "picture writing"...the hieroglyphs are letters and
syllables in a longer sentence praising the king. The lintel was first translated over 100 years ago -- no UFO, aircraft, etc.
The "airplane model" from South America are fanciful bugs and birds in jewelry. I've seen them in person and they only look like "aircraft" if
you look at them from one direction.
Baghdad battery is real.
Coso artifact is a limestone concretion around a 1920's spark plug. Yes, rock forms that quickly in caves.
Giant stone balls are real (I've seen them) and are not perfectly round. They were manmade and you can see the stone hammer marks on them.
"impossible footprint" is another hoax by creationists.
Do a google search on ATS for these topics and you'll see some lively and detailed chat about them. Feel free to post what you think on those
threads!
