One Martian land form, dubbed the Parrot Formation, was said by a veterinarian specialist to have 18 points of anatomical similarity to the bird, said Saunders, who noted that the parrot was a deity in Mesoamerican mythology. An ET civilization, such as proposed by Zecharia Sitchin, may have visited both Earth and Mars, and left the large art forms on the Martian surface. Their civilization could conceivably still live underground on Mars, they added. Wikipedia Cydonia is a region on the planet Mars, and has attracted both scientific and popular interest. The name originally referred to the albedo feature that was visible from Earthbound telescopes. The area borders plains of Acidalia Planitia and the Arabia Terra highlands. The area includes the Mars regions: “Cydonia Mensae”, an area of flat-topped mesa-like …
