Here are a few images of some pieces that I created and sold a few years back at my South Coast Antiques & Gallery here in downtown Ocean Springs, MS.

Ritually Killed Alien Artifact Bowl by Michael W. Moses | | |
Many ancient cultures here on our Earth have "ritually killed" offerings to a temple, or grave goods to prevent the object from being reused by other living people and in some cases to kill the spirit of the object being sacrificed. The most common way that this ritual killing of the object occurred was by simply punching a hole through the object as with the pottery of the
Mimbres Culture in the southwestern corner of New Mexico. Another ancient group that apparently practiced ritually killing of offerings was the
Jomon in Japan. The Jomon created terra cotta figures known as
Dogu, that they broke on purpose and buried. From these ideas I have over the years created a number of ritually killed alien artifacts. It only seems plausible in my mind that if one were to study ancient cultures on other planets that things like this would be discovered among their ancient ruins and among private and public collections on their worlds.
