Other than the theory that the carvings are a modern fraud, there are several theories about the origins of the Ica stones. In one theory, the stones are proof that humans and dinosaurs coexisted several thousand years ago and that the Biblical account of creation is correct. The stones are held up as proof of this. Another theory states that the stones are proof that ancient astronauts taught early humans advanced technical, scientific and medical knowledge. A third theory holds that ancient myths and legends are historically accurate and the carvings prove this is true.
