Enormous carved stone heads have been puzzling experts since 1871. There are 17 of them, attributed to Mexico’s mysterious Olmec culture, which thrived in Mesoamerica from as early as 1500 BCE to about 400 BCE.
The largest head weighs more than 50 tons, and they were quarried nearly 100 miles away. How could such a feat have been accomplished more than 2,800 years ago? Theories range from huge balsa river rafts to ancient alien levitation technology.
You can meet the Olmec heads face to face this September, on a small group tour of Mexico that also includes Aztec and Mayan pyramids, and the most important and largest city of pre-Aztec Mexico, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known as the “The City of the Gods” – Teotihuacan.As an added bonus, the tour will be led by Cliff Dunning, host and producer of the popular podcast, “Earth Ancients: Startling New Discoveries from Our Planets Distant Past.”

NEW TOUR UPDATE
Yesterday we opened up registrations for a new tour to the amazing Pyramids of Bosnia. The Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun is the largest in the world, bigger and more perfectly aligned than Egypt’s Great Pyramid in Giza.
This trip to Bosnia and Herzegovina is hosted by Marta Thomas, and features healing and meditation. It also includes visits to the Virgin Mary apparition site of Medjugorje, historic Mostar Bridge, Old Town Sarajevo, and much more.
