Ahhh! Yes, but in 1102? Maybe somebody remember the future in the Medium Age.

Impressive!
But, how do we know it wasn't put there later on? Do you have a bit more info on the source of the presentation?
Anyway, thank you for the link Esteban.
Muchas Gracias!

Found on the net:

"Mike Mc Says:
When restoring old carvings it is customary to include an object which would have been unknown when the original carving was done. It dates the restoration and adds to the history"
And

"It's from a restoration done in 1992."

Very extrange method (for me) for to date the restoration!

[Fred]

Yes, but in a few centuries it will probably not look so strange.
It will be all "prehistoric" stuff

In the pictures it was clear that part of the carving was from another date , different colour.Too bad, was a great story.

You can find plenty of stuff if you search at "salamanca 1102 cathedral astronaut"

Yes, entertaining though!
I found even this:
It's from 1992/93, and other "masterpieces" of the era include a demon/monkey eating ice cream.

My suggestion for some future restoration: a man detecting with a White's!!!

[Fred]

Maybe in a far future,they will carve a man detecting with a LRL ??

Who knows!

The figure at the Salamanca's Cathedral is not an astronaut.

It's actually a representation of one of the chrononauts lost in time due to a NSA (National Security Agency) Project from the late 80's which malfunctioned and had terrible results. Many did not come back.

Don't ask me how I know this, because I won't tell.

You know because YOU came back.
Right?

Fred.

[hung]

Almost correct.
I worked on a similar project and one of these men made contact.
He sounded out of air. Locked in the time space continuum forever.. The vortex curved and many got lost.
Poor fellas..
