The trail continues my friends.
Father Carlos Crespi was a Silesian-monk who lived in Ecuador. He did missionary work among the Indian population in remote valleys during his lifetime. Crespi received or bought many artifacts from the indigenous people in Ecuador.
When questioned, they told him they had found them in subterranean cave systems in the jungles. The age and origin of these items is still unknown today. Father Crespi never tried to classify them. The picture motifs are strange, their meaning not understood. These objects show the pictures of an unknown culture.As time progressed, many of these relics were brought together and kept in the courtyard of the church Maria Auxiliadora. Stan hall interviewed and filmed the priest and treasure posted in a earlier post. Was this real treasure from a lost civilization or a crude attempt of psudo history by person or persons unknown?
Unfortunately, many of the artifacts were destroyed in a fire in 1962 or later when the church was restored. Also, many were lost or wound up with treasure hunters. After Father Crespi passed away in 1982, the remaining artifacts of the original collection were removed and made inaccessible to the public. Some may still be stored in the cellar archive of the church Maria Auxiliadora. There are rumors the collection disappeared overseas. And all manner of conspiracy theories exist. The poor old Vatican nabbed them. Even Fr Crispi was an enigma. There are claims he was Adolf Hitler?
Such as the twisted stories that float around the Tayos legend.
Several questions spring to mind.
Why have the academic set showed very little interest in such a discovery?
Was the collection a fake?
Where they ever actually connected to the Tayos story?
Are they real items from another cave system?
One thing I found years a later... A Swiss researcher took 2 items to Switzerland and tested the metal in a Forensic lab. The items was was made from metal with exact consistency of old Mercedes Benz radiator parts.
Although in fairness that was only two of the items was tested. However For Me sadly there was too many read flags.
The Following item tested in in the picture below.

For me I think South America has been seen through eyes of Ego centric Europeans with the belief that the local indigenous population was not capable of developing their own technology with out the aid of ancient Mesopotamian cultures. Such is the desire for that link some will resort to anything to make it happen.
And thus The Tayos legend is one big cloudy Mess of conspiracy theories and where research was don By the Heart and not the head.
Even today the legend will not die..
As of the claims of the radio interview of late 2012 claimed...
To be continued...
