Other ancient sites in Peru include:

– Peñico: A 3,800-year-old city of the Caral civilization unveiled in July 2025 in the Supe Valley.

– Sechin Bajo: A site in the Casma Valley dating back to approximately 3500-3600 BCE (roughly 5,500 years old), considered one of the oldest in the Americas.

– La Otra Banda/Cerro Las Animas: A 4,000-year-old temple and theater found in 2024.

What I noticed on the film footage was a complete absence of any symbols ang glyphs.

In antiquity, something was mined there, probably copper or some other precious resource.

Notice the precision of the stone cutting.

How was this done given that there were no metal stone masonry tools in megalithic times?

The site also appears to include a mill, powered by a water channel, and the remains of a temple.

There are also two large chimney stacks.

The site has never been excavated.

Officially, it does not exist.

My next Q. – ‘What is the most ancient site in Peru?’

AI – ‘The most ancient city in Peru (and the Americas) is the Sacred City of Caral-Supe, which dates back 5,000 years to approximately 3,000 BC.

Located in the Supe Valley north of Lima, this UNESCO World Heritage site features 32 monumental structures, including large pyramids, and was a thriving urban center while the Egyptian pyramids were being built. 

Key Details About Caral:

• Age: Flourished around 2600 BCE, making it a contemporary of early civilizations in Egypt, India, and China.
• Civilization: Built by the Norte Chico civilization, which is considered the oldest civilization in the Americas.
• Features: The site boasts large pyramids, a circular amphitheater, and complex urban planning.
• Location: Situated in the Supe Valley, 182 kilometers north of Lima. 

Other Ancient Sites in Peru:

• Peñico: A recently discovered (2025) 3,500-year-old site, also in the Supe Valley, likely developed as a continuation of the Caral culture.
• Chankillo: Known as the “Stonehenge of the Americas,” this is a 2,300-year-old solar observatory.
• Kuélap: A massive, walled city built by the Chachapoyas culture, which is significantly older than Machu Picchu. 

While sites like Machu Picchu (built around 1450 AD) are famous, Caral represents the deepest, most ancient roots of Andean civilization.’

My next Q. – ‘Why is there no writing on ancient monuments in Peru?’

AI – ‘ The absence of traditional written language or alphabetic glyphs on ancient Peruvian monuments (like those of the Inca, Moche, or Chavin cultures) is not due to a lack of intellectual development, but rather to the use of a different technology for recording information, a focus on visual iconography, and, in the case of the Inca, a conscious decision to destroy records. Ancient Andean civilizations, which thrived for thousands of years, developed a complex administrative and record-keeping system that was distinct from the Old World’s reliance on stone carvings and papyrus. Here are the primary reasons why you do not see writing on ancient Peruvian monuments:1. The Use of “Quipu” (Khipu) – Knotted Strings Instead of carving text into stone, the Inca and their predecessors used quipus—intricate systems of knotted, colored, and twisted strings. 

• What they were: Quipus were portable, “talking knots” used for accounting, census data, taxation, and potentially historical narratives.
• Why on strings: This system was more efficient for a vast, rugged empire than stone, allowing specialized, mobile bureaucrats (quipucamayocs) to transport data across thousands of miles.
• “Operating System”: Experts believe these knotted cords served as a sophisticated, non-alphabetic, three-dimensional “operating system” or “proto-writing” that could store both numerical and perhaps even narrative data. 

2. Destruction by Spanish Conquistadors When the Spanish conquered the Inca Empire in the 16th century, they regarded quipus as “idolatrous” or “pagan” and destroyed them, replacing them with European script. 

• Loss of Knowledge: Because the Spanish destroyed the majority of these records and did not learn to interpret them, the key to understanding the full extent of this “written” information was largely lost.
• Prohibition: Reports indicate that during certain periods of Inca history, there was even a prohibition on the use of older, different forms of writing (known as quellqas), which were replaced by the quipu system. 

3. Visual Iconography Over ScriptAncient Peruvian cultures, such as the Moche and Chavin, used highly developed, symbolic artwork rather than text to convey messages on buildings, ceramics, and textiles. 

• Iconographic Language: Moche pottery, for example, tells detailed stories of ceremonies, daily life, and warfare, functioning as a visual, narrative, and symbolic code.
• Mural Painting: Instead of carved glyphs, Andean cultures used murals on adobe temples to represent religious figures,, such as those found at the Temple of the Moon. 

4. Cultural Preference for Oral TraditionLike many other pre-literate societies, the Incas relied heavily on oral transmission to recall their history and beliefs. 

• Memory Aids: The quipu served as a memory aid for the oral historians who would recite the stories and genealogies of their rulers, rather than relying on a written text for people to read, as in Egyptian or Maya societies. 

While there are some findings of pre-Inca, older symbolic systems, the primary, enduring, and most advanced “writing” system of the Andes was, in fact, a system of threads and knots.’
