Archaeologists find ancient plaza in Peru
www.smh.com.au - A ceremonial plaza built 5500 years ago has been discovered in Peru, and archaeologists involved in the dig said carbon dating shows it is one of the oldest structures ever found in the Americas.
A team of Peruvian and German archaeologists uncovered the circular plaza, which was hidden beneath another piece of architecture at the ruins known as Sechin Bajo, in Casma, 370 kilometres north of Lima, the capital. Friezes depicting a warrior with a knife and trophies were found near the plaza.
