This is what they actually found.

They found numbers? I wonder what they mean.
Ancient precursors
'mysterious spheres'
AKA a whole buncha fucking dirt rocks
I have some of those in my garden

I was expecting it to be something like this, off the second Tomb Raider movie D:

lmfao they found gold rocks
Looks like a bunch of generic rocks with maybe a bit of sulphur deposits sitting on top.
Utterly anticlimactic.

Just that?
I expected something like those floating and rotating flashlight things in the last level of Doom 3.
If we were to find aliens, I bet they would be boring and EXACTLY like us instead of horrible murdery demons that throw fireballs at you.
Fossilized shit

they have found Orb, we must destroy it, or harness its power, or destroy it,
Even if they're just rocks, they should be studied. At best it could provide a bit of insight into why the city was abandoned around the 8th century, though I'd hazard a guess that a plague struck the city and drove the inhabitants out.
They might've had some meaning to them, the way they were arranged and the indication of color, but in reality, it may as well just be someone being artistic and burying these things with their owner.

I agree
Speaking of archaeological robots. Do you guys remember that guy who had sent a robot to a hidden pyramid tomb or something, and said he had found something "amazing". And it turned out to be nothing at all.
Gees, archaeology must be a boring job if they they keep over exaggerating like this :v:
pictures of the machine that they used, for those who care.

Lol read the article guys.
"The mysterious spheres lay in both the north and south chambers. Ranging from 1.5 to 5 inches, the objects have a core of clay and are covered with a yellow material called jarosite."
From Wikipedia:
"This sulfate mineral is formed in ore deposits by the oxidation of iron sulfides. Jarosite is often produced as a byproduct during the purification and refining of zinc and is also commonly associated with acid mine drainage and acid sulfate soil environments."
Still strange though
[QUOTE=booster;40523359]Man they really stretched the word "Spheres".[/QUOTE]
It was that or "little ass rocks found inside old ass rock house"
Always that grouchy guy who takes balls from kids who kick them on his lawn. Luckily this one had a sweet pyramid shaped house.
Maybe chunks of gold from offerings?

i honestly hope the aliens come from a world where everything is overly magnetically charged and their entire system of transportation is based around knee-height hovering rocks so when they look at our wheels they shit themselves
Ancient spheres are notable because the processes used to make accurate, perfect spheres are very recent, and they'd be nearly impossible to make without current technology.
That's why calling those lumpy yellow rocks "spheres" is horribly misleading and implies a much more interesting discovery than what was actually found.
Teotihuacan, the location of the temple, is a pretty sick place.

too bad it was constructed for the explicit purpose of fucking with people in the future with a few rocks they found in their back yard

See guys, THIS is how you know you're living in the 21st century. A time when it takes a million dollar complicated remote operated all terrain rover vehicle to locate fossilized shit with sugar sprinkles on top.

Sulfides, I knew it!!
[quote]"This material is formed by the oxidation of pyrite, which is a metallic ore," Gómez Chávez said. "It means that in pre-hispanic times they appeared as if they were metallic spheres. There are hundreds of these in the south chamber."[/quote]
[quote]"Originally the spheres would have shown brilliantly. They are indeed unique, but I have no idea what they mean."[/quote]
These must have been pretty cool.
So I guess my gravel is actually a bunch of dodecaedrons?
