The Untold Story Of The Markawasi (Marcahuasi) Stone Forest - Peru · Mystery Archives Episodes

0:00
Hidden away within the Andes mountains near Lima.
0:03
Peru, there lies a plateau. That is inundated with mystery.
0:10
The area is home to multiple, massive, granite rocks, that
0:14
resemble those of human faces animals and religious symbols.
0:20
That no one. Truly knows if they were carved
0:23
or naturally formed and this isn't the only strange thing
0:28
about this place. The Guys are filled with
0:31
unidentified flying objects, the spectres of bizarre Cryptids and
0:37
even reports of a portal that can allow one to travel through
0:41
time and other dimensions. This is an episode, you
0:45
certainly won't want to miss. So join me as I explore the
0:50
untold story of the markawasi Stone Forest here on mystery
0:57
archives. The markawasi Stone Forest is
1:21
located on a mountain range. The sits nearly 4,000 meters
1:25
high. And the horror chura Province
1:28
east of Lima, Peru. This Plateau is shrouded and
1:32
many levels of mystery and makes one Ponder many questions.
1:39
The first of which is just who, or what made these massive stone
1:43
structures. There are many different
1:46
formations. Alleged have been found within
1:49
the forest. These range from human faces and
1:53
figures to animals and even religious figures as well.
1:59
Religious figures that are not native to the area, but there is
2:03
much much more to unpack here than just what's on the surface.
2:09
Many of the formations seem to represent different races and
2:13
animals not found within the Senna T of where the plateaus
2:17
located. Among these include the likes of
2:20
toads dogs and Condors which are all indigenous to the area and
2:27
can be found here, but animals that are not indigenous are also
2:31
found within the forest as well. And these include massive
2:35
carvings of walruses. Campbell's, Lions, a polar bear,
2:41
alligators Turtles and what even?
2:45
Appears to be a Stegosaurus some of which are over 25 feet tall
2:51
along with many different animals.
2:53
There are also the faces and figures of humans.
2:57
One noteworthy specimen is a three-story tall human head
3:02
which seems to be carved from a single Boulder with other
3:06
figures to sending down a cliff drops 1,000 feet.
3:11
If these were deliberate carvings, the sheer level of
3:14
craftsmanship and labor required to make such figures would be no
3:19
meager fee even by today's standards with modern tools let
3:24
alone thousands of years in the distant past but just who could
3:29
have carved them and what was this all supposed to mean?
3:34
Many origin stories for the formations exist.
3:37
One of which is provided to us by the local people.
3:41
Who live there according to the native and Ians.
3:45
These aren't natural formations. These are statues statues that
3:51
were provided by beings of a higher intelligence than man.
3:56
The Bings, allegedly came from inside the earth, whether they
4:00
lived there is speculated by some in some kind of inner earth
4:05
or simply materialized From Another Dimension.
4:09
Is Up For Debate. But what the native and Ians do
4:13
tell us is that along with providing the statues.
4:17
These beans also taught them many valuable lessons and
4:20
blessed them with a higher knowledge, although they have
4:25
never described as to these beings were or what?
4:28
They even looked like. These beings are makers, is all
4:32
be referring to them. We're often also called Shamu.
4:37
Among many of the figures found throughout the plateau, there is
4:41
one that is perplexing to say the least.
4:45
One such figure appears to Bear. Striking resemblance, to an
4:49
ancient Egyptian goddess. The Egyptian goddess is that of
4:54
towers or Towers. The goddess of childbirth and
4:59
maternity her form. Is that of an upright female
5:03
human with hippopotamus characteristics.
5:07
We seem to see a very prominent female face while examining this
5:11
figure here. But although Peruvian and
5:14
Egyptian civilizations, were two of Mankind's earliest.
5:18
They were never known to have ties to one another.
5:21
So, how would it be that this massive sculpture of an Egyptian
5:25
goddess exist, in the mountains of Peru?
5:29
Another mystery is that of the three-story tall human head
5:33
carving. I mentioned previously,
5:36
apparently, this particular piece represents the different
5:39
races of the world. Speaking in a muted silence, as
5:44
one perhaps claiming that all people were one at one point
5:49
with in Mankind's history. But that of course, is also up
5:54
for interpretation. These strange figures provide us
5:58
with more questions than answers and now haunt the miss.
6:02
That shroud the plateau of this Lost World.
6:07
Attempting to answer some of the questions posed already.
6:11
I researched what the archaeological Community has had
6:14
to say and regards to the Stone Forest and really for the most
6:19
part, they aren't yet able to explain the majority of the
6:22
formations. The simplest explanation is that
6:26
they are naturally formed through weatherization and just
6:30
happened to look like said faces figures and animals, this
6:36
phenomena Is known as pareidolia, the tendency for
6:40
humans to see patterns that aren't really there.
6:44
And although, this is indeed possible.
6:47
There is also substantial evidence of early human
6:50
settlement there. So, who's to say that, perhaps,
6:53
they didn't have a hand in creating these figures, and this
6:58
also leads us to another mystery.
7:01
The mystery of A Lost Civilization among the various
7:06
figures Formations. However, you choose to look at
7:09
them. There are also ruins of an
7:11
ancient civilization far older than the Inca that also used to
7:16
call Peru their home much later. Considering what appear to be
7:21
people animals and deities not native to the area appearing
7:27
ever so far from where the originated from the only other
7:31
logical explanation would be that of A Lost Civilization.
7:35
A pre-columbian culture that had transoceanic ties.
7:40
Something of this Nature has been speculated upon by many
7:44
researchers and philosophers over the years, but has yet to
7:48
be proven To somewhat add to this theory of the ancient
7:52
runes. I previously mentioned there's
7:55
what appears to be an ancient city located near where the
7:58
stones can be found. These were first believed to be
8:02
remnants of the early Inca given the area and time frame.
8:06
However, this now appears to not be the case since the runes date
8:10
much older than no need to settlement.
8:13
And occupation, although the Inca were very Advanced for
8:17
their time. They weren't known for making.
8:20
I Choose Or carvings like these either, if they are indeed those
8:24
and not formations. That is another strange detail
8:28
about the stones as well, is that many of them are only
8:32
viewable from certain areas and at certain times others appear
8:37
to change forms as one moves or as light changes, perhaps from
8:43
One race of a face to another, which is very interesting
8:48
indeed. If this was the intention of
8:51
whoever made them, if they were made, just what were they trying
8:55
to tell us? Like an unfolding novel, The
8:59
Mystery surrounding the Stone Forest, only continues to be
9:03
written among the strange figures ancient runes and
9:08
Whispers of another time there seems to be a unique energy that
9:12
emanates throughout markawasi adding to this energy is the
9:17
existence of numerous chill Buzz or tombs found on the plateau.
9:21
They often are neatly constructed out of stone blocks
9:25
with expert precision. And others utilize natural
9:30
overhangs or shallow caves. Perhaps designating the person's
9:35
status or importance depending on how they were buried bodies
9:40
were bound and mummified according to religious
9:43
practices. What's interesting to note here
9:47
is that mummification the construction of pyramids, King
9:51
burial with the pyramids and shifting statues.
9:55
But all be things that the native Indian peoples and the
9:59
Egyptians would have a calm although they were over 7400
10:03
miles away from one another and considering the theories about
10:07
Egypt and the fact that a statue of what appears to be an
10:11
Egyptian goddess was found within the Stone Forest this in
10:15
and of itself makes for an extremely interesting mystery
10:18
and one that perhaps will never be solved.
10:21
Since the knowledge is more than likely been lost to the sands of
10:25
time. But as noted by many who have
10:28
visited, there seems to be the feeling of a strange energy
10:33
emanating from the plateau with self, could this energy?
10:37
Be attracting extraterrestrial life over the years.
10:42
Hundreds of supposed, sightings of UFOs have taken place at the
10:47
markawasi Stone Forest and the nearby surrounding area.
10:52
These have become so commonplace that it's prompted, Peru to
10:56
reopen its office of UFO investigation.
11:00
While many of the official reports are classified often
11:04
stated as an issue of National Security.
11:07
There is one extraordinary story that was apparently experienced
11:11
by the president of Peru at the time, a former Commander named
11:16
Julio Camaro stated in a rare interview with the BBC that then
11:21
president. Should Mori was on a fishing
11:24
trip with in the mark Ozzy lagoons with his full security
11:28
Entourage. Went to luminous sphere, Rose
11:31
from the water, and hovered over the boats before the shooting
11:36
off into space at an unimaginable speed.
11:40
This experience and multiple military, sightings and
11:44
encounters were. Apparently, what prompted the
11:47
office being reopened? As to what could seem to be
11:52
drawing, these objects to the Stone Forest and the surrounding
11:56
areas remains to be seen, or could they have been there from
12:00
the beginning lying and waiting to re-emerge UFOs?
12:06
Aren't the only strangeness that's witnessed hear stories of
12:10
Cryptids and Spirits are also commonplace Among The Mists of
12:15
the mountains. One such creature is known as
12:19
the gray giant. It is described as a tall gray,
12:22
humanoid figure with long arms and legs and has been seen
12:27
numerous times around the Stone Forest.
12:30
This is alleged footage. That was taken of the creature,
12:34
by nearby residents several years ago.
12:42
Is this an extraterrestrial or something left behind by one?
12:48
Or could it be one of the makers, the native Andy and
12:50
spoke about when describing how the stones came to be?
12:55
Another interesting phenomenon that's been experienced here, is
12:59
that of spirits or translucent beings?
13:03
Many visitors have reported, not only seeing ghostly apparitions,
13:07
but feeling or being pushed by them as well.
13:12
Local residents described them as ghosts and say they are the
13:16
spirits of the people who used to inhabit.
13:18
The forest. They often also materialized is
13:22
bright and distant lights, usually glowing white or red.
13:28
This is one such story of a traveler who visited in 2010
13:33
with a group of friends. And it seems to capture multiple
13:37
things that I've mentioned this far on the first night camping.
13:41
Being out the campsite was about 700 meters away.
13:44
From the last town, we all saw ghost a person, all in bright
13:50
white floating from the cemetery and the direction of the nearest
13:55
town at 1 a.m. in the morning. Take into account that for the
13:59
cold at night. Nobody in the highlands leaves
14:02
home after a p.m. on day two, during the walking's, the group
14:07
experience, the presence of someone behind them walk At a
14:11
close distance all the time or were seeing someone walking in
14:15
the distance that suddenly disappeared.
14:19
We were told by the nearby people of the town that these
14:23
also were ghosts by night time on the same day, red lights in
14:28
the distance, were moving on, the nearby Hills but in his own
14:32
were no towns. Our houses were located, we
14:35
checked this, the next morning, Constant discharging of
14:39
batteries from cameras with no apparent reason.
14:43
Then finally UFOs were clearly seen by everyone in the group,
14:48
moving on the sky slowly, at first, then as fast as shooting
14:52
stars and changing directions, all the time there were many and
14:58
they even got super close to us. So close that we could see the
15:02
roundness of the object. We were so freaked out that we
15:07
turned off the lanterns right after the object vanished.
15:12
Could these Spirits are ghosts? Perhaps not be the remnants of
15:16
those who once occupied this place could they, perhaps be
15:20
beings From Another Dimension or people existing within another
15:24
realm of reality. Could there be doors between our
15:28
world and something else. There are reports and one such
15:34
story in particular. That makes us ask these
15:37
questions and much more, an anonymous patient.
15:42
Due to the confidentiality, protocols came to see a doctor
15:46
by the name of Raul Santino and Lima.
15:50
Peru, she came to see him in a distressing state of partial
15:54
paralysis. Her condition was described as
15:58
hemiplegia, where one half of the human body is paralyzed, but
16:03
the static condition. Didn't seem to make sense after
16:07
tests, have been ran upon undergoing a CAT scan, no
16:11
visible. Signs of brain trauma or
16:13
swelling. The causes of hemiplegia were
16:17
present already baffled by what he was seeing develop.
16:20
In this patients case, the doctor was even more taken aback
16:24
and she began to describe what happened to her the woman had
16:28
apparently recently been hiking either, Merrick Ozzy Stone
16:31
Forest with some friends and as they approach, where they were
16:35
going to set up camp, the group began to hear music, drifting
16:38
towards them from the mountains, After some walking upon closer
16:43
examination, they noticed a small Stone cabin lit from the
16:47
inside with torches and they witnessed what appeared to be
16:51
figures dancing around inside approaching further, out of
16:55
sheer curiosity, the patient began to feel a strange coldness
16:59
overtake. Her body, the pushing through
17:02
upon peering inside the building the woman claimed to have seen
17:06
occupants clad and 17th century clothing or older.
17:11
Like she was watching a history documentary of some sort, but in
17:15
reality, as she attempted to step into the house, she only
17:19
made it halfway before. She was pulled back by a friend
17:23
who was very scared and had a bad feeling about the entire
17:26
experience from here. Within a matter of minutes the
17:31
deathly feeling of numbness over took half the woman's body, the
17:35
same half that it managed to make it into the strange house
17:39
after the ensuing panic. And transportation.
17:43
The woman was, then brought to the doctor after this
17:46
consultation, the woman, then began intensive, physical
17:49
rehabilitation, and a National Hospital located in Lima.
17:54
Her recovery status from here, remains unknown, could there
17:59
really be portals or Time Slips in this world glimpses into the
18:03
past. As if its existing side by side
18:06
with you could this be through a wormhole a ripping time Time or
18:12
access to another dimension. These questions and more come to
18:17
mind when pondering just exactly what this woman.
18:20
And I'm sure several others have experienced within the strange
18:24
Mists of the markawasi Stone Forest.
18:28
Could it be the source of the energy many have spoken about or
18:32
is it being caused by something else?
18:35
Just who or what, exactly caused the stones to resemble, human
18:39
and animal faces and figures. And given a fact that we saw
18:43
video of an alleged extraterrestrial just to or what
18:48
are the native and Ians referring to?
18:50
When they describe the makers, these questions and more have
18:54
been brought to the surface today and I'm curious to know
18:58
what you guys think. So if you're visiting now, you
19:02
know you might not want to wander too far within the These
19:05
mountains of Peru because something or someone may just
19:10
make you a permanent resident. Thank you guys so much for
