Comments

The sacred city of Caral-Supe (Peru), the oldest city in the Americas, was inscribed on the Unesco World Heritage List on June 28, 2009.
The city of Caral, located on the northern coast of Lima, includes six pyramids, circular plazas and the residences of former ruling classes, among others. The discovered evidences show that rituals and religious ceremonies were carried out there, and that the residential constructions formed units of dwellings and workshops of work.
The ancient Caral civilization (3000-1900 B.C.) was formed in the Americas at the same time as those of Mesopotamia, Egypt, India and China. However, unlike the latter, it developed in isolation without coming into contact with the cultures of other continents.Automatically translated
