One thing I don't hear people talk about much is the concept that these airplane shapes (if that's what they are--who knows) could have come as a result of visions, or prophecies.
The Hocak culture, for example, is historically full of prophecies. According to my Hocak fam, there was a prophecy far in the past about a time when tall, round towers would be built on Hocak land, and smoke would come out of the top. There was also a prophecy that when the big roads came, it would be the end time for the Native Americans--generally the big roads are thought to be the interstate system. To this day some Hocaks avoid the interstate and take state roads instead.
Anyway, I just wondered if the airplane (and even some of the spaceship-cockpit type carving) could be theorized to come from a vision, rather than direct experience.

Basically smoking that special cactus or eating those magical mushrooms. Quite possible I guess yea. That is the point, nobodody knows because it is in the past and nobody from that era can tell you why they made such things. Damn ancient druggies.

"Airplaine" artifacts (avionetas) in the Gold Museum of Bogotá. So dang cute.
