Archaeologists stand on a circular plaza found recently under an existing ceremonial site in Peru.

The plaza, whose discovery was announced on February 24, 2008, could be 5,500 years old, which would make it the oldest known human-made complex in the New World, experts say.

Keep digging- there’s bound to be a “No Parking” sign buried in there.
