I'd love to hear Graham Hancock's take on this
'Brazilian Stonehenge' discovered
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4767717.stm
Brazilian archaeologists have found an ancient stone structure in a remote corner of the Amazon that may cast new light on the region's past. The site, thought to be an observatory or place of worship, pre-dates European colonisation and is said to suggest a sophisticated knowledge of astronomy. Its appearance is being compared to the English site of Stonehenge. It was traditionally thought that before European colonisation, the Amazon had no advanced societies.
Winter solstice
The archaeologists made the discovery in the state of Amapa, in the far north of Brazil. A total of 127 large blocks of stone were found driven into the ground on top of a hill. The layout suggests a temple or an observatory. Well preserved and each weighing several tons, the stones were arranged upright and evenly spaced. It is not yet known when the structure was built, but fragments of indigenous pottery found at the site are thought to be 2,000 years old.
What impressed researchers was the sophistication of the construction. The stones appear to have been laid out to help pinpoint the winter solstice, when the sun is at its lowest in the sky. It is thought the ancient people of the Amazon used the stars and phases of the moon to determine crop cycles. Although the discovery at Amapa is being compared to Stonehenge, the ancient stone circle in southern England, the English site is considerably older. It is thought to have been erected some time between 3000 and 1600 BC.

Interesting. Here's a guy who claims to have found similar structures in New Zealand (http://www.celticnz.co.nz/). His theories are pretty controversial, so make of it what you will. It would be awesome if we discovered our very own "Kennewick Man" in New Zealand :D
According to this guy, we already have (http://www.celticnz.co.nz/embargo_saga.html)

About 1996 skeletal remains, described as being very ancient were found in a lava cavern near Wiri, South Auckland. Where is the archaeological report on this find and why did the initial newspaper article state that the remains were estimated to be about 2000 years old?
# In the summer of 2000-2001 an ancient skeleton was located on the foreshore of Lake Pupuke in Auckland, N.Z. Where is it now? Were any photographs taken of the cranium and jawline? Was it examined by a physical anthropologist? Why did an officiating Kaumatua state that it was 3000 years old?

A little over 20 years ago there was a substantial landslip near the western shores of Lake Taupo. This occurrence was the result of incessant rains that had lashed the region for days on end. With the slippage of pumice ash, which had originally been dumped by the 186AD volcanic explosion of Taupo, a cavern mouth was exposed. Inside the cavern, officials and a volcanologist discovered the skeletal remains of people who had died as a result of the Taupo eruption. They had been living in the cave at the time, as artefacts and other evidence would suggest. But hold on a minute...there wasn't supposed to be anyone living in New Zealand in 186AD! Where is the archaeological report on this find, as well as the photographs and artefacts?

Why was the very comprehensive and utterly proven work of farmer/ archaeologist, Russell Price deliberately and unfairly torpedoed, without rational substance, by Dr. Bruce Mc Fadgen? The careful work undertaken by Price at Poukawa, between the 50's to the 70's, was fully endorsed by New Zealand's leading experts in the science of "ash band layering" (Pedologists)...individuals of the calibre of Alan Pullar, along with highly respected colleagues, such as leading geologists Wellman, Kohn & Vucetich. They confirmed that Price had, indeed, found undeniable evidence of human occupation (artefacts and structures), which preceded both the Taupo volcanic explosion of 186AD, as well as the Waimiha volcanic explosion of 1320BC. Moa bones, found at very low levels below bands of "air layered" (volcanic) strata, had been both cooked, cut with tools and broken open for the extraction of marrow...sometime around 2500BC (see Chain of Evidence, by John Tasker, pages 138-155). Why has this astounding evidence been suppressed and ignored?

Where are the skeletons of women with long blond hair, extending to below their knees, found near Dargaville in the early 1900's? These were considered to be ancient and were located in a burial cave or grave when a road was being cut adjacent to the Wairoa river. Where is the report and were any photos taken?

There was a worldwide Aryan presence, for instance in the Americans and Oceania, and everywhere we see the sad story of faster-breeding negroid/mongolian/semite races overwhelming or exterminating the Aryans, and of jew-negroid-mongol controlled "scientists" destroying the evidence.

Can anyone find better pictures of this place?

I bought a book about pre-Columbian civilizations last year, 1491.

Does anyone have a photo of the one they found in Russia?

Remains of Aryan "Kennewick men" have been found on New Zealand, but they have been systematically destroyed by the hooknosed/cannibal enemies of the truth.
