The poor Olmec. Can you imagine how the US would feel if in 1,000 years we are spoke of as the culture that refined fried potatoes?

[BenLurkin]

refined fried potatoes?

Damn right we did!

[G Larry]

How’d they get the blue prints?

[laplata]

They must have made their own blueprints.

This civilization might still be here today if they hadn't forgotten the cardinal rule:

Location! Location! Location!

[dangus]

... well, yeah, but they hardly were built as well.

[BenLurkin]

Near as I can tell, they wanted to be as far as possible from the ocean for some reason. Must have seemed like a good idea at the time.

[central_va]

Heart cutters built them some good temples.

[bunkerhill7]

Since them Caral pyramids wuz built at exactly the same time as Egypt pyramids,, musta been the same fellas that built em both. Even a 3rd grader can figure this one out. I ain` stupoiud, Even my cat can figure this one out duhhhh.

Diameter of earth = 12,742 km
distance between Giza & Caral = 12,398 km

hot dang!! Its only a coincidence!!!

Some Egyptian monuments are older than 3000 years. But this is cool. Thanks for posting.

Some “details” of what this article, and many other articles, say about the Chim/Chimu people amaze me, and make me question whether or not many fine details are just assumptions and insinuations, as the Chim/Chimu did not leave their langauge in writing.

[TheDon]

You make that sound like a bad thing.

[NFHale]

They DID leave their written language… it was in Mary Poppins…

“Chim Chimuree chim chimuree chim chim Cherroo”…

That means … something … in Chim/Chimu…

Brilliant invention!

Now if we could just cure diabetes and obesity while still enjoying them, we would ensure our place as the greatest civilization in the galaxy.

There are worse things to be remembered for, and we’re doing a lot of them.
