Pokotia monolith, or the Monolith of Pokotia, or Pokotia monument is a stone statue found in 2002/1/4 in the south of Tiahuanaco (Tiwanaku) in Bolivia. Like the bowl Fuente Magna it has Sumerian or proto-Sumerian cuneiforms on it. It is found by Bernardo Biados, Freddy Arce, Javier Escalante, Cesar Calisaya, Leocadio Ticlla, Alberto Vasquez, Alvaro Fernholz, Omar Sadud, Rodrigo Velasco and Paulo Batuani under local government support. It supports the authentication of the bowl Fuente Magna and the theory of some Sumerians living in Mesoamerica before Columbus.
