1: The guy that bought these was a physician, not geologist or even an archeologist.
2: He refused to let scientist test the areas in which they were discovered. Hell, he wouldn't even take blindfolded scientists to the location. He died and so did his "secret."
3: Scientists tested clay figurines discovered with some of the stones. They were modern. They said one even had water in it..lol. Obviously the stones could not be dated.
4: The stones are reportedly made of andesite, which is extremely hard to carve. I would bet it would take at least a month to actually carve one image. BTW, the ICA stones aren't carvings. They are more like etchings. Can you imagine how long it would take a group of people to actually carve stones made of andesite? I think they allegedly discovered like 10,000-15,000 stones. Plus several thousand more in a "secret" cave.
5: Some of the stones depict flying machines. Now, if an ancient civilization actually had that type of technology, I'm sure there would be more evidence of their existence. The evidence does not exist.
6: Even AiG believes they are fake. Click me. Reference the foot note #17.
7: The farmer that "discovered" the stones admitted they were fake.
I'm sure there were other reasons to refute the stones, but I can't think of them off the top of my head. It's been a long day. I personally think they were created by an artist (the alleged farmer) and used to draw tourists.
Bottomline, I can only answer your question if I believe they are genuine. Facts prove otherwise. BTW, that site you referenced is owned by his relatives. So of course they want to keep this hoax/legend alive. Artifacts are money makers.
