What began as an attempt to investigate and potentially disprove extraordinary claims surrounding mysterious artifacts in Mexico, has developed into a multi-year investigation involving thousands of objects, active excavation sites, laboratory analysis, published papers and discoveries that continue to raise new questions.
Researcher and author Michael Forest takes us inside his fieldwork in Tula, Hidalgo, Ojuelos de Jalisco, Guerrero, and other regions of Mexico. Through original excavation photographs, video, laboratory results, and detailed documentation, Forest will present some of the most significant discoveries from the project, including unusual carved stone objects, crystal and mineral artifacts, metal objects, sealed deposits, burial contexts, and recurring iconography with apparent parallels to cultures far beyond Mexico. Forest will reveal the scientific investigation of selected materials, including microscopy, elemental analysis, dating efforts, and ongoing laboratory work; then presents the evidence, the unanswered questions, and the limitations of the research, allowing you to evaluate the material for yourself.
The in-person presentation will be at a new location for us, 17475 Beach Blvd., Huntington Beach 92647. This is an upstairs meeting room in a small shopping center just south of Slater, Ave and it is recommended that if you are navigating to the site, you should use 17473 as the ground floor address to locate.
