Archeologist stumbles upon something mysterious inside an underwater temple in lake titicaca

Ancient Artifacts

Delaere and his team claimed that they had found submerged artifacts that are over 7 meters which is about 20 feet just off the submerged island or The Island of Sun and the artifacts are claimed to be almost 500 to 800 years ago.

Many More To Be Revealed

But then the team came across something that was much older than those artifacts. According to Delaere, the artifacts were just the recent ones and there are many other artifacts that are lying in the depth of sea that might be older than the ones they have found now.

1500-Year-Old

The search operation team then came across stone vessels, incense containers and animal figurines like pumas that were not less than 1500 years old and Delaere still claim that they are just the beginning and there might be many other things lying in the depth of the sea waiting to be discovered.

Wilma Alanoca Mamani

But the Bolivian culture minister has some really different plans for all the other artifacts that are lying in the depth of the sea waiting to be discovered. Bolivia’s Culture and Tourism Minister Wilma Alanoca Mamani explained that “We found more than 10,000 pieces like vessels, gold pieces, ceramic”.

An Ongoing Debate

The archeologists conducted a search and debated on the fact that whether the lake helped the artifacts to remain in their original condition which was considered to be pretty great considering the fact that they were at least 1500 years old.

Conclusion

After coming to the conclusion that the lake was one of the major reasons that the artifacts were in such perfect condition the expedition team and Delaere decided to stop the search operation and they let the remaining artifacts where they belonged, under that lake.
