PRISM MarketView: “University of Georgia Confirms: Buga Sphere Dates Back 12,560 Years”
Summary
Promotional PRISM MarketView piece (Gerry Griffith, Oct 24 2025) restating the steven-greer/jaime-maussan claim that Accelerator Mass Spectrometry at the university-of-georgia dated organic resin embedded in the buga-sphere — a basketball-sized metallic object recovered near Buga, Colombia in March 2025 — to 12,560 years before present, placing its creation in the Younger Dryas period. The piece frames the sphere as evidence of advanced pre-flood civilizations, likens 31 microscopic resin-anchored channels to modern fiber-optic assemblies, and groups Buga with the Baghdad Battery and Antikythera Mechanism as “out-of-place artifacts.” It names no UGA personnel, methodology, or raw data. This claim is directly rebutted by src-buga-sphere-carbon-dating-debunk-2026-04 and by Colombian astronomers cited in src-buga-sphere-el-pais-cali-maussan-handoff-2025-10 and src-buga-sphere-infobae-true-origin-2025-10. Treat as unverified, promotional, single-source.
Key Claims
- A UGA accelerator-mass-spectrometry lab dated organic resin from inside the sphere to 12,560 years before present (attributed to Greer’s team).
- 31 microscopic precision-drilled holes contain resin-anchored thread-like structures with claimed fiber-optic-like properties.
- The sphere shows no atmospheric-entry pitting/melting, implying advanced protective tech or non-conventional descent.
- The 12,560-year date places creation in the Younger Dryas (12,900–11,700 BP), invoked as evidence of a pre-flood advanced civilization.
- The sphere is grouped with the Baghdad Battery and Antikythera Mechanism as out-of-place artifacts.
- Critics cite contamination, dating-accuracy questions, and natural-crystal explanations; Greer’s team “calls for independent analysis.”
Notable Quotes
“The University of Georgia’s lab dated the resin to 12,560 years ago, placing the sphere’s creation during the Younger Dryas period…”
“The 31 microscopic holes, containing resin-anchored threads, resemble modern fiber optic cable assemblies.”
“Dr. Greer’s team insists on the integrity of their methods, calling for independent analysis to confirm their findings.”
Caveats
PRISM MarketView is a financial-PR / marketing wire; the piece reads as advocacy rather than reporting. No UGA personnel, lab director, sample-prep methodology, or calibration data is supplied. The university-of-georgia has not publicly confirmed the result, and per the companion debunk source, the underlying methodology (dating organic resin to infer the age of an inorganic container) is unsound.
