YouTube Description
as posted by the channelArchaeological BREAKTHROUGH! Discover the stunning 5,000-year-old tomb of a noblewoman recently unearthed at the ancient coastal site of Áspero, Peru—possibly the oldest queen burial in the world. Join Pillars of the Past as we explore the preceramic Caral civilization, a culture older than the pyramids of Egypt, and the groundbreaking work of archaeologist Dr. Ruth Shady, who has faced assassination attempts and relentless threats from land traffickers while protecting this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Learn about a complex Andean-Amazonian trade network, matriarchal power structures, and the heartbreaking destruction of sacred sites due to government neglect, illegal land grabs, and agricultural expansion. Watch, like, and share to raise awareness and help preserve the oldest advanced civilization in the Americas.
TO SIGN THE PETITION:
Corrections to video - An "elite male burial" was found at the site in 2019, NOT 2009 as stated in the video.
