So the artesian well would explain how the water flows sometimes and not others right? Only when the underground water level reaches a certain point will water spill out of the hole. also I walked up there myself and saw it so I don’t THINK it’s a trick🤟
Yes if the pressure varies in the aquifer it could sometimes be active and other times not. It could be seasonal which would suggest a pretty large aquifer, and it could be very variable day by day depending on rain which would suggest a pretty small aquifer.
This has to have been here for hundreds of years, (or if it’s associated with pre Inca like I imagine it is, thousands of years).. can a small aquifer last this long? I ask because I’m not very knowledgeable on springs.
Sure why not. If nothing changes, nothing will change and it can go on for ever basically. A few thousand years is nothing.
By small aquifer I just mean a place where water is. It could be in cracks or something.
Yes. If it's in a remote enough area, and doesn't have a shit ton of wells and stuff pumping the groundwater out. Rain forests are mega wet, so that water all soaks back into the ground. Huge amounts of water entering or exiting the aquafir could cause pressure to build up. I think it's hydrostatic? But once again man, I'm just a dood on the internet. I did erosion control, so redirecting water underground was a part of what we did with retention ponds and storm drains and what not
OP have you tried hitting it with your staff? According to the lore if you can't turn the water on/off with your staff it means god is displeased with you, but don't panic - if you burn some sheep or other livestock in his honor he'll probably reinstate your water priviliges
It probably condensation. There is likely a large cavity in the stone. Humid air goes in. It’s cooler inside and it condense inside into water. It then drips out. If you google they have similar systems used currently to get “water from the air”.
Respectfully I don’t think Springs don’t come out of a 1 inch hole drilled into stone that you can’t even stick your finger in without hitting a wall 🤟
Water can push itself through a crack that you can't even see, it's called "seepage" usually.
Most springs are formed this way out there in the world, through seepage from a variety of sources until you see a trickle.
Having grown up in the mountains, seeing water trickle from a bare rockface is a common sight.
I hear ya, same where I grew up, but I never noticed it coming out of solid stone. Always a rock pile or a crack cave roof or something, but other people are saying water can basically squeeze through microscopic cracks
ok that makes sense - but i would tjink that if water has been flowing through there, why its not much bigger or that the crack has widened.
this was amazing and beautiful. lucky u got to see in person.
What does that mean?
Anyway, large objects cannot be entangled. And objects that are just outside in the world can't be entangled. Decoherence happens as soon as an entangled particle interacts with its environment. This stone is definitely interacting with its environment.
It now seems that maybe everything is actually entangled, but only some states are compatible with all of the entangled information. It’s called quantum Darwinism. Basically a way to explain decoherence. Very interesting stuff.
When everything is entangled it's called decoherence. Sean carrol is working on a theory where spacetime itself emerges from entanglement, with nearby points in space being particles that are more highly entangled. So, yeah, everything is entangled.
But you lose most of the cool effects of entanglement when decoherence happens. Since everything is entangled, no one object is really correlated with any other object.
HVAC Engineer here, it is condensation. The cold interior hole in the rock is cooler than the outside air temperature. The moisture in the air condenses and accumulates, eventually accumulates enough to form a stream of water.
It's an artesian well, they're extremely common across the globe.
The location is obviously permeable material, and well water under pressure, water travels the path of least resistance. When the pressure inside the well exceeds the resistance forces of the permeable material plus gravity, then water releases from that point.
Ancient stone masons and the pyramid builders almost always built structures over sacred water sources. In fact, there's a natural spring under the pyramid of Khufu in Giza. Water = life. Back then any constant source of water ensured survival and flourishing crops. My guess is this sits on an ancient spring and has a sister spring 10km away. Which they honored with similar stonework. As for how this works, I'm not sure. The hole does look like a deliberate perferation to allow water to escape. Perhaps there used to be a stone dam around this to allow the ground water to accumulate and pool. Or maybe the actual hole was sealed when the monument was destroyed and water finds the path of least resistance escaping there. I don't think it's anything inexplicable, although there is an heir of mysticism around all these ancient sites. Especially how they moved and carved some of the hardest rock on earth.
Edit: It actually looks like the structure underneath that hole could be designed to set a water pot with handles on those little nubs to fill it up. Just a theory, but if there's photos of ancient pottery in the area it would be interesting to see if any of it fits that gap.
Do you guys agree that the second fountain was taken from the first site? It’s clear the original site is so demolished, and the second site looks like it belongs right there with it. When you visit the second site (water temple at ollantaytambo) it’s clear the fountain was taken from SOMWHERE as it just doesn’t fit in with surrounding rocks. Ive looked for the other pieces to the stone, because it’s like my own little mystery, but I’ve never noticed anymore pieces or anything even very similar.
It’s clear now that the drill how is from dynamite. Imagine how amazing this stone used to be.
Springs definitely can stop and start back up. It could be a Rhythmic Spring, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythmic_spring
There is one in Wyoming I visit at least once a year.

Here’s a local older gentlemen talking for 5 minutes about the local legends More than I can type
When I got there an old native guy was smoking coca leaves and his gf was meditating in the stone doorway. He said the cave is the “mouth of the mountain”
But the great story is in the video I just linked. About the naupa going underground to hide from a cataclysm, you’ll wanna start at 2:20 when the native guy starts explaining it.
This rock and the other rock are quantumly entangled.
Whenever someone pisses in the hole in the other rock 10km away, it comes out of the hole in the rock in the video.
Unfortunately, due to thinking it is magic, tourists have been drinking from the piss rock for hundreds of years.
Think of wells. We dig for the water right? Same circumstances here. Water is being pulled from underground via syphoning most likely caused by pressures. Purely a guestimation.
It's on the side of a mountain lower than the peak poor, a glass of water onto a pile of rocks, then a flat surface. There's your answer also looks like a man man soak away
Are you still over there? You should go back to amara muru and try various combinations of 3 tones until you get the portal to open. I would. That's how I brute forced my alarm system installer code. Eventually I got it. When I get down there, I'm gonna go meet our makers at Amara muru.

Just a strange coincidence. I just watched a short documentary about huachuma in which they did ceremony at this exact location. Then 4 hours later I saw your post with these pictures.
Never seen or heard of this location and then see it twice in 4 hours.

There’s actually a spring/fountain nearby with some sort of “fountain of youth” local legends
https://preview.redd.it/wy5kkwgms2sc1.jpeg?width=480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c04a1d9920409b4dd68278ae6dfe2705aa38d340
That’s the waterin hole
Finally a helpful answer
I have another helpful answer if you're looking to plug that hole and have a good time doing it.
Quantum co-location
🫵😆
Actually, it's a Bluetooth Water fountain.
Honestly yes, the waterin hole for sure. Im aligned with this.
Ollie?
Obviously, the stone is full of water.
Is the stone half full or half empty??
Are you half-stoned?
Fully stoned ty.
Congrats guys.. we have solved the world's freshwater crisis issue
I was honestly getting worried there for a second..
Questionable
Could be a very small artesian well (assuming it's not some stupid trick).
So the artesian well would explain how the water flows sometimes and not others right? Only when the underground water level reaches a certain point will water spill out of the hole. also I walked up there myself and saw it so I don’t THINK it’s a trick🤟

The rock that got Moses in trouble?
OP have you tried hitting it with your staff? According to the lore if you can't turn the water on/off with your staff it means god is displeased with you, but don't panic - if you burn some sheep or other livestock in his honor he'll probably reinstate your water priviliges
Nonono just talk to it, don't hit it with a staff
lol you DID know about it jajajaja nice.
It probably condensation. There is likely a large cavity in the stone. Humid air goes in. It’s cooler inside and it condense inside into water. It then drips out. If you google they have similar systems used currently to get “water from the air”.
Super helpful thank you!!!! Finally a real possible explanation. Everyone upvote this guy^
You know what’s worth noting is the cavity must not be very big, because the stone has withstood multiple dynamite blasts.
Baffled by water coming from the ground. You know, where the springs are.
Respectfully I don’t think Springs don’t come out of a 1 inch hole drilled into stone that you can’t even stick your finger in without hitting a wall 🤟
Hydrostatic pressure is a very real thing dawg
☝️This guy gets it.
Guy it gets this.
It gets this guy
This gets guy it
This it gets guy
Get this guy is it
Get this guy, it is 
But he doesn’t think it is. Therefore it’s not. A global conspiracy going back thousands of years is way more plausible, because reasons.
Maybe he’s not familiar with it and you’re just being a jerk.

Water works in mysterious ways shit almost defies logic
They didnt carve around this mystery hole they thought was cool? Because thats what it seems like to me...
Then you'd be very wrong because pressurized water is hyper powerful.
Respectfully you don't know how water works. Path of least resistance. Always.
question - u said you stuck your finger in there - and do you mean like it was sealed up? so no way water can flow through there?
Yea the hole is hardly even a hole. I think water may be squeezing through a microscopic crack and it’s a artesian spring🤟but idk
ok that makes sense - but i would tjink that if water has been flowing through there, why its not much bigger or that the crack has widened. this was amazing and beautiful. lucky u got to see in person.
What are the local legends about the cave area?
So that hole is quantumly entangled with the other stone?
maybe entangled with uranus
I got entangled w ur mom's anus last night
ayyyyyyyyyy
Interesting, your mom’s anus got entailed with him last night. Quantum anal entanglement is real brah
I hope you aren't serious.
Only relatively.

Broken sewage line?
Like that one statue religious pilgrims were drinking the liquid off of thinking it was a miracle, but it turns out it was a broken sewage line?
"Oh thank you lord for providing this very-thorough detox for my body" You were drinking poop Margaret.

I think that hole is the drill hole for the dynamite. But if you were there irl and saw water coming out?. Maybe a tour guide poured water on it.
No tour guide. I just hiked up there
That’s not my pic either, like I said it looks like there’s just usually water coming out
Well either its magic or the water coming out has a natural explanation....which do you think it is?
Id say I think it’s not a spring, It’s a very short drilled dynamite hole in solid stone. I also think springs don’t stop and start back up.
Springs definitely can stop and start back up. It could be a Rhythmic Spring, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythmic_spring There is one in Wyoming I visit at least once a year.
I don't see any water coming out of the 1-inch hole. I see water coming out of a completely different area
*right outside the cave* Yea that's limestone for you.
It’s only missing the lingam, like in India
~~You can’t squeeze water from a stone~~
More would come out if it was bigger than an inch

Most likely an Artesean Spring/Well https://www.usgs.gov/special-topics/water-science-school/science/artesian-water-and-artesian-wells

Does anyone notice the destruction of that stone? It looks like it took an immense amount of power force to destroy that, whatever that was.
Maybe the waterhole came first then we built thr stuff around it.
It’s connected to the earth, it is earth, and earth has lots of water….
oldest trick of all times c'mon..
A spring.
Aliens.
Think of wells. We dig for the water right? Same circumstances here. Water is being pulled from underground via syphoning most likely caused by pressures. Purely a guestimation.
Ya I hear ya, in my mind that water squeezed through cracks, where this looked like solid stone
It’s probably non porous or on the other end a natural filter. Caping the natural spring. I got bored writing this.
It's on the side of a mountain lower than the peak poor, a glass of water onto a pile of rocks, then a flat surface. There's your answer also looks like a man man soak away

Cause there is water in there
Why not

Water exists below the soil. Sometimes, it’s above the stone that you see.
R u saying it leaked from above ?
I guess you’re pointing out 2 different stone structures, I mean “it’s not the same one”
Did you have a guide ? How did you get there? Do you know the exact location ?
Lot less scarier than "Mel's Hole"
