Evidentially this was not just a bunch of huts or caves in the jungle but a massive city like area over 150 miles in size.

I’d say this is quite a find.

And when they stop clearing the jungle, it will overgrow the cleared land in about one or two generations, Look at the temporary bases built in the South Pacific during WWII.

Recall back in the heyday of the environmental wackoes, they assured us that after one or two growing seasons the soil there would turn to laterite, approximately the consistency of brick, and never be useful again.

They have been lying for a good forty years now, and it's getting old.
