Vast ancient pyramid hidden for MILLENNIA near ‘Sacred City’ is unearthed…shedding light on lost ‘advanced’ civilisation ARCHAEOLOGISTS have unearthed a vast ancient pyramid that was hidden for millennia, right next to a revered sacred city.
The new pyramid has been dug out at the Chupacigarro archaeological site, just one kilometre west of the world heritage site Caral in the Supe Valley, west Peru.
The Chupacigarro archaeological site sits next to a small stream running through a ravine, which would have supplied water to the ancient Peruvians living there.
The Caral developed at least 30 major settlements which were concentrated near the South Pacific coast of western Peru.
The discovery was made by the team dedicated to exploring the area around the sacred city, known as the Caral Archaeological Zone.
