Kinkaid made a brief preliminary incursion and discovered a number of ancient relics and sent a few samples back to his seemingly peripatetic employer (or contractor) the Smithsonian “Institute”.

Fuck the smithsonian they where politicized back then. They destroyed evidence that went against the common belief of history at the time.

Sounds like a European treasure since they were all over the globe for thousands of years at this point. They find no bodies or beds or any kind of natural living conditions. Just precious metals and sculptures and urns from all over the world.

Sounds like bullshit but if true it would have been Incans or Mayans.

Over a hundred feet from the entrance is a cross-hall, several hundred feet long, in which was found the idol, or image, of the peoples god, sitting cross-legged, with a Lotus flower or Lily in each hand. The cast of the face is Oriental, and the carving shows a skillful hand, and the entire is remarkably well preserved, as is everything in this cavern.

Buddha is confirmed to have been a white skinned, blue eyed, red headed Aryan. The transformation into an Asian is a much more recent sociological event within the last several hundred years. Just like that, we have a dating of the cave.
