Señor de Wari come back to our days surprising to everyone.
[ 0000-00-00 00:00:00 ] Archeologists have discovered a group of ancient tombs in the mountainous jungle of southeastern Peru they say is as important as the discovery of the lost city of Machu Picchu.
The tombs belonging to the Wari culture were found on the jungle-covered eastern slope of the Andes in Cuzco department at a long-abandoned city thought to be the last redoubt of Inca resistance to Spanish colonial rule.
The Waris, a pre-Inca civilisation, had an enormous cultural impact in the Andean region between 600 and 1200. The Inca empire (around 1400 to 1532) was the largest pre-Columbian empire in the Americas.
“It is an impressive Wari find in the Cuzco jungle that opens a new chapter on archaeological research and forces us to re-write history,” said Juan Garcia, the cultural director for the Cuzco region, as he announced the discovery.
