 The Anomaly Archives Weekly Email Newsletter
June 30th, 2016 - Austin, Texas
No time for small-talk this week...
Below you'll find our Book-of-the-Week which is one of many Spanish language titles from the Girard Collection. This one is about the infamous Ica Stones of Peru, considered by most to be an admitted hoax by farmer / artist / conman Basilio Uschuya who "said he produced a patina by baking the stone in cow dung." The stones depict creationist type artworks featuring humans and dinosaurs living and working together as well as advanced technology implying ancient astronaut themes. Several of the stones depict highly sexual content.
As usual we have a smattering of UFO, Parapsyhology, Mysterious Phenomena (like the Worldwide Hum) and Deep State / Parapolitical news links in our Anomalous Headlines section.
We're still trying to increase our membership so please consider joining the Anomaly Archives as a Dues-Paying Member. Even if you can't access our local collections you can support our mission and goals:
- Preservation and dissemination of scientific research into anomalous phenomena.
- Research and analysis of accumulated collections.
- Education of the public regarding scientific investigations into these phenomena.
- Managing and developing an archive and library for documents and literature with regards to a multi-disciplinary approach to anomalous phenomena.
- Supporting, promoting and pursuing research to obtain increased knowledge about anomalous phenomena.
- Pursuing and stimulating a critical, scientific discussion of anomalous phenomena, and providing a forum for information, support, and sharing among researchers.
- Functioning as the archives and library for like-minded organizations, and other groups in the community that have similar interests.
Also, we recently mentioned an exciting conference happening on the Big Island of Hawaii later this year. The organizers of this Living Mystery Symposium, whose theme is Super Nature, have recently updated the event date to December 10th & 11th and lineup to Whitley Strieber, Jeff Kripal, Dennis McKenna, Tiokasin Ghosthorse, & Host Jeremy Vaeni. See the event website for details.

Book of the Week...
El Mensaje de las Piedras Grabadas de Ica
by Javier Cabrera Darquea
“In the vicinity of the village of Ocucaje and Ica, in Peru, a collection of rounded stones . . . has been amassed by Dr. Javier Cabrera….The people are shown hunting or struggling with a variety of monsters that resemble BRONTOSAURS, TRICERATOPS, STEGOSAURS, AND PTERODACTYLS . . . human beings are portrayed as having domesticated animals that appear to be DINOSAURS and are using them for transportation and warfare. People are shown using telescopes, looking at the stars, and performing surgery”
Charles Berlitz, Atlantis: the Eighth Continent, 1984, pp.193-194
