Line 21: − # The Crystal Skull of Lubaantum ([[Belize]]), a 7-inch-long skull cut from a single piece of clear quartz found among Mayan ruins in 1927. The artisan who fashioned it evidently cut the quartz ''against the axis of crystallization'', a feat no modern jeweler could possibly accomplish without shattering the quartz into fine dust. Moreover, even if the artisan could have accomplished the against-the-grain cut, he cannot have used any metal tools, because his work bears no scratch marks. Analysts have concluded that the production of this artifact would have required 300 man-hours using any conceivable modern method—again, ''if'' anyone could have cut the quartz against the grain without shattering it. (One must also wonder what sort of culture would see something as morbid as a skull as an article of jewelry, much less exert such technological effort to produce such an object.)<ref name=top10/>

# An Inca pendant, dated from 500 to 800 AD, that turns out to be a model of a high-speed aircraft, possibly a jet. More remarkably, the object's apparent rudder fin bears an engraved [[Hebrew]] or [[Aramaic]] letter beth.<ref name=top10/><ref name=s8int/>

# The Cabrera Stones. These are 20,000 stones that appear to be illustrations from a medical textbook. The surgical techniques depicted in these illustrations rival or even far surpass any surgical techniques in use today, and even include encephalic transplantation.<ref name=top10/><ref name=AncientX/>

# The Dropa Stones. Chi Pu Tei found these in a cavern in the Baian-Kara-Ula mountains in China. These are nine-inch disks, each with a hole in the center and an intricate spiral groove that is actually densely etched with hieroglyphs. These objects, dated about 10,000 years old, speak of the crash-landing of multiple spacecraft all piloted and crewed by a people calling themselves the Dropa. Human remains were also found in that same cavern.<ref name=AncientX/>
