This is amazing. Wow, imagine what this would do to science if accepted!
Although gators were around during the dinosaurs, ( I think) why do some of these guys deny this stuff?

Most civilizations have had dinosaur (dragon) legends. And the most common theory for why is that the discovery of dinosaur bones has been going on since the dawn of mankind (why would it be a new phenomenon, afterall?)
But, without the science to understand what they're looking at, or realize how old those bones are, people logically thought these animals must still be wandering around somewhere.
But finding idols and pictures of dinosaurs in ancient civilizations is no more exemplary of their peoples having lived with dinosaurs than it will be when the archaelogists of the future find our artists renditions and children's toy dinosaurs means they were living in our time.

Do I understand you correctly? You are saying that the Incas , from bones they find could accurately recreate a picture of a dinosaur which was extinct 10's of millions (supposedly) before their civilization arived on the scene. They actually have pictures of several different varieties of dinosaurs. Did they find complete fossils of each and know from that how to recreate their physical appearence? I thought we were still trying to do that ourselves. To me it is much more plausable they lived with them and knew what they looked like.

Mike....Gator/crocs were around in the time of and before dinosaurs. Science does not deny that fact and never has.
Research Sucosaurus for an esp big one.

Another interesting and more recent find is T-Rex soft tissue. 70million years (supposedly) and it hasn't fossilized. Hardly.
