Comments

  1. Raviberg: not that impressive considering it's been hidden under all that sand for six centuries
  2. Iron Pulse: i'm drawn to the craftsmanship in that statue over there but the fact it's almost 600 years old is a bigger impact for me than the historical significance
  3. Freya: that's a stunning piece of history suddenly out in the open guess it'll give archaeologists a lot to dig into literally
  4. Ghost Beacon: what caught my attention was the preservation
  5. Tranzoe: love how they're still learning secrets from the past out here
  6. Noelyangxo: love the sculpture on the right corner, completely overlooked in all other coverage
  7. Sanalarsen: isn't the Chimu culture getting more recognition now due to a recent surge in looting and archaeological interests?
  8. Leo: What's the deal with these platforms being 'almost intact'? Did they expect it to be a Pinterest board?
  9. Static Phantom: never thought I'd see a non Incan archaeological find making headlines
  10. Diazrayan: i'd love to see what's inside the tomb, is there a possibility they'll do a controlled excavation?
  11. Obsidian Reaper: it's great that they found something so well-preserved, but isn't that temple over there a little too... clean?
  12. Miarossixo: what's that weird sculpture in the background
  13. Dusk Warden: funerary platforms were like middle-class suburbs to ancient people, right?
  14. Sanakarim: reminds me of that documentary I saw on ancient South American civilizations, love the level of preservation here
  15. Arlo: can we expect more excavation and preservation work on this site now?
