Antisuyo expedition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Antisuyo expedition, led by Giancarlo Ligabue and Federico Kauffman Doig in 1984 in Peru, enabled identification of a group of pre-Inca sarcophagi which had remained unknown in the scientific literature. These sarcophagi had been protected by a steep incline, and its inaccessibility dissuaded grave robbers and treasure hunters. For this reason, it remained intact for so long, in contrast to other grave sites in the region.
