While care must obviously be taken in uncovering the Mayan city, there is a dual sense of urgency due to looting and the nearby volcanoes which are always a threat to erupt.Īlien-looking artifacts from various Mayan sitesĪccording to Montiel, the Maxtaloya statue is one of over 5,000 various artifacts discovered in the Maxtaloya area. Rafael Julián Montiel, the director of the museum, anticipates finding more artifacts in the area because of its close proximity to Cantona (La casa del sol), the largest pre-Columbian city discovered so far in Mesoamerica whose own spectacular Mayan historical architecture and relics have barely been excavated – experts estimate over 90% of Cantona is still to be found. The obvious reasons it is described as “alien” are the large, odd-shaped head and the oval eyes that are often seen in depictions of aliens such as the Greys. It's surrounded by a snake and holding or sitting on a human head. But the main and mysterious attraction of the statue is its humanoid figuration. After careful cleaning, archeologists identified inlays of obsidian, turquoise, jade and shell. Announcements of its discovery refer to it as an “alien figure” and “controversial.” What is it?Īccording to El Sol de Puebla, the statue was uncovered by municipal workers in the small town of Maxtaloya. Another such statue was unveiled recently by the museum of Xiutetelco, in Puebla, Mexico. So many statues, carvings, paintings and artifacts from the Mayans depict what appear to be aliens or alien spaceships, it’s hard to argue that all of them either have logical non-ET explanations or are hoaxes.
