Dollar IN A STliAME UlUiUtif A SOUTH AMERICAN CITY OLDER THAN THE INCAS. Some Wcuderlnl Ruins of .in Ancient 3 Kaee — A Magnificent Temple of ttie Sun Worshipers i to b ,n::rt', " ntcs sho, J i! J lDme ** ^Vard, r 4 in w. asnmgton. ’ • Star, without having ! paid some attention to an ancieDt town near the northeastern edge of Lake Titi- caca, which Professor Squier has dubbed “the Baalbec of America.’’ It is named Tiahuanaco (pronounced Tce-ah-uha-naa- co), and is believed by some scientists to be the oldest collection of ruins on the hemisphere. At any rate it proves tha existence of a race so far antedatin'* the time of the incas that ail knowledge of it was lost before the Spaniards came: for when the latter questioned the In- dmns of those days aoout the origin of these mighty monuments they were told that before ever the sun appeared in the heavens a race of giants inhabited the earth for thousands of years; that they grew so numerous the gods became jeal¬ ous and turned them all to stone; and what appear to be the remains of huge buildings arc, in reality, some of the pet¬ rified giants themselves. The principal ruins he on a level plain within walking distance from the village and cover an area of about three miles. There arc several artificial mounds made of earth and stones, numerous edifices and the re¬ mains of massive walls that probably served as forts or inclosures. Tne high¬ est of the mounds was once terraced, each terrace supported by a wall of cut stone, and is completely covered and sur¬ rounded by ruins, with an enormous structure on top, which modern visitors have named “The Fortress.’’ Not far from this hill is the finest edi¬ fice of all, so far as decoration is con¬ cerned, now known as “The Temple.” It is 445 feet long, 38S feet wide, made of cut and polished blocks of dark basalt, each thirty inches thick. These stones are suuk into the earth like gate posts, nobody knows to what depth, the parts above varying in height from nine to fourteen feet. Those ancient architects, whoever they may have been, seein to have not understood the use of mortar, or maybe they did uot need it, being able to build so well without. Like King Solomon’3 temple, the stones were all made to fit exactly into one another, having round holes drilled into the top and bottom of each at corresponding dis¬ tances, into which bronze pins were placed. Scattered all about are many highly polished blocks which appear never to have been placed in position, indicating that the builders were dis¬ turbed in their work and left it incoin- plete. beautiful sculp¬ Amoutf the most most tured and curious relics is ati enormous block of sandstone, one single slab, thir¬ teen feet five inches long, eighteen iuches thick and standing a litt>e over seven feet above the ground, which, though badly cracked (the natives say by light¬ ning), is still upright. It must be suuk deeply into the earth, to have stood so long without external support, and was doubtless meant for a doorway, as it has a central cutting four feet six inches high by two feet nine inches wide. Across the upper fa:e above this door¬ way figures in low relief are carved, which closely resemble the sculpture of Egypt, and scientists say that a finer piece of cutting in the same kind of stone, by artisans, ancient or modern, cannot be found anywhere iu the world. Within the temple inclosure is a hori¬ zontal slab, about fourteen feet square, with a dee*p hollow iu the middle, cut out like a square trough, which is sup- posed to have served in some of toe ceremonies of sun worship. Tne great temple is comnosed of huge blocks of red sand stone,' each fourteen feet long with nicest care. This is the more re- markable, as those early people must with have been entirely unacquainted had iron ami steel* and could have do mechanical apparatus for carrying or working heavy holies, every bit of the labor having to be accomplished by ha- man strength. Neither could they ha\e had any knowledge of gun powder or j other explosives, but that they were fa- miliar with the useot brouze is prove by the pius above mentioned and a few weapons that have come to light. !• rom cliffs of red sand stone, more than some of these fifteen miles away, every one enormous temple blocks must have been carried, but no basalt or trachyte is found nearer than forty miles. There seems, besides, to have been a palace, a prison, a hall of justice and other institutions, which show that the long-past race possessed some degree or civilization and refinement, None can upon these monu nents without be- gaze with wonder concerning toe in<r filled lived aud died mvsterious people who centuries before Coluaihiis or any other European had sought the western hemis¬ phere.
