We are seeing our own culture in an object created by another culture, just as Christians might see a Cross in an Egyptian anch, in that they have similarities in appearance, but very different meanings by intent.
but nothing survived of a factory producing the needed propulsion systems?
With our strongest nuclear powered cranes we still, to this day can not move some of the blocks used to construct the great pyramid at Giza. They did NOT have our cranes or our supposed sophisticated tech and yet they achieved things we can't even wrap our mind around.
Im not here to argue.....But allow me to inform you, there weren't enough trees, hemp, or man power to erect those monuments that way.
Sorry. I know its hard to believe that evolution and history of mankind is NOT linear, but hey the evidence stands.
You guys swear they used torches and lamps when there is no evidence of soot of any kind.
People have a hard time accepting facts. There are glyph's of light bulbs. The scoffers will say yeah right, but they have even been tested.
who knows what they had that we haven't discovered.
Really break down the pyramids. The 'granite' that is placed precisely within the kings chamber, They are aligned with the cardinal points before the invention of the compass, I could go on for hours.
As for the obelisk correct me if I'm wrong. They cut it into pieces just like when the moved the valley( correct me again if im wrong). These obelisk and statues were erected and cut precisely out of one piece originally. We still think the bent pyramid was an accident.LOL. We still don't have a clue in my humble opinion because it was deliberate.
Look at the degrees. When we study Kemet(egypt) from the inside out, the records show it was either quartz or diamond at the top which to me is amazing. I bet you guys think this was for decoration or ceremonial purposes,huh?? Wrong again. What is even more fascinating, no one even questions or understands the foundation of the pyramids. I'm not talking about the encoded math formulas within the pyramids, I am talking about the pyramidal structure that supports the visible side. Oh wait, you aren't going to talk about that because napoleon or Zahi and the others haven't witnessed it. Right!??!!?

These little gold tokens are from the Quimbaya culture (Columbia) not Moche or Inca. They were probably made between the 700 AD to 1000 AD and perhaps up to the arrival of the Spanish.
Most appear to be representations of demons, flying fish and insects

Ah, Hans -- you beat me to it!
I've seen them in the museums in Costa Rica -- and I've seen a LOT of them (not just one). Put in the context of "here's a whole heaping bunch (over 200) of them" the idea that they're aircraft just... well, it doesn't fly. They are insects, birds, fish (haven't seen the demons one but have seen birds and fish along with insects.) Many of them have the antennas, claws, etc.

I believe it is foolish to believe these things aren't connected.
If one has a proper understanding of history and how things work, one can realize how interconnected the conscious mind is. One might see a cross and one might see an ankh, if one was to look close enough, there is a common thread present that may have been transmitted by the way of philosophy. The story of Horus is remarkably similar to Christ, and the Kemetic (egyptian) people even had a word that is very similar which is Kares which is loosely translated as enlightened, annointed.
Back to the surface.
Do not assume we as a species are at our acme. We are in fact doing things way backwards. Really think about it we literally waste resources just to reach space when there are plenty of less expensive ways. This has to be the most primitive way ever.

"Professor Gubbins belongs to the old school of scientific criticism, and cannot but strike us as limited in this age of wireless telegraphy and nuclear powered cranes."; or "Doubtless we should be as much surprised at the deeds of our descendants as would an Ancient Briton at a motor-car or a nuclear powered cranes, or any such common sight in our streets."

Your logic fails you. An RC plane disguised as a lawnmower does not mow the lawn...but it does fly. Try that with an actual Sears and Roebuck.
The ancient astronaut theory will still be debated, and your Op has done absolutely nothing for your debunking cause. Fair enough?
