to be honest with you, i wanted the skulls to be ancient but the evidence suggests otherwise. i appreciate your comments, and i am a very open minded person, but unfortunately i have to go with the scientific findings.
unless you can provide actual evidence that these skulls were made x thousand years ago, i will stick with the current scientific verdict.

First, I don't want or not want.
Second, the "scientific findings" are prefaced with
"" The researchers used an electron microscope to show that the skulls were probably shaped using a spinning disc-shaped tool made from copper or another suitable metal.""
Do I need to point out the word PROBABLY ?
too many times I hear "scientific fact" that only changes by 180 degrees a decade later. I believe the links i provided are PROOF that the word PROBABLY is seriously over valued.
I'm not trying to change your mind per say, I'm just trying to remind you that scientific PROBABLES followed by reasoned DERIVED from these probables are FREQUENTLY dis-proved.
If you choose to "stick" with that then so be it... I however will stick with the "no one knows so we'll see later. If everyone let the PROBABLE rule how they thought, then a great many advances and discoveries would never have come to pass.

Tiwanaku Interactive Dig
Approximately in the middle of the valley are a series of large mounds and small platforms marking the center of the city of Tiwanaku, occupied ca. A.D. 500-950. A dense scatter of ash and pottery and other artifacts is witness to the fact that a large population once lived around these monuments.
Hall of Matt: Weighing Alternative History
His conclusions, published in 1943 in Tihuanacu: The Cradle of American Man have never been taken seriously. And with good reason. The "shoreline" Posnansky identified on surrounding mountains was the result of the formation of the river valley in which Tiwanaku sits (see C. Clapperton, Quaternary Geology and Geomorphology of South America [Elseiver. New York, 1993]) and the stones cannot be aligned with stars, since the Spanish smashed the idolatrous site when they found it, and it was used for centuries afterward as a handy quarry for building materials by locals, including the inhabitants of La Paz. Travellers as late as the 1920s saw statues and stones from Tiwanaku re-used in settlements all round the region. At the site itself, the stones aren't in their original positions. Many were moved and smashed when a railway was built through the centre of the site in the 19th century. Given all this, you can't argue from star-alignments with stones that the site is 17,000 years old; that would be pure guesswork.
