When the visitors came down in their flying machines for trade with the Indigenous people, they brought knowledge. In exchange for that knowledge, the Indigenous people gave components to the travelers, such as precious metals and gemstones, which would be combined with other substances to create fuel for the flying ships. When the travelers departed, there were traces of their fuel left behind that solidified. These solid masses of expended fuel came to be known as SACRED PIPE STONE.
