American Indian Artifacts of Valdivia culture 3800BC to 1600 BC .
Today I can join you .... although my specialty is Spanish findings, but and recently visited South America and retrieve e prehistoric finds of the culture Valdivia 3800 BC to 1600 BC.
Belong to the site of " El Real Alto" in Ecuador, which was a city of about 4000 years ago.
Valdivia culture site, located in southwest Guayas province, on the Chanduy Valley less than 3 kilometers in from the coast of southwestern Ecuador.
A large Early Formative village, Real Alto contains a long-used and deep midden deposit, a residential zone, and a central plaza, and was occupied between ~4400-1700 BC. The site had its heyday during the Valdivia 3 phase, between ~2800-2400 cal BC. At that point, the site was 12.4 hectares in area, with two ceremonial mounds and two plazas. Most importantly, Real Alto is one of the earliest evidence of the use of maize as a primary subsistence crop, identified by phytolith and starch grain analyses.
but these findings were retrieved from a road near the site, if he had not Picked up now would be destroyed by modern cars.
The first picture appeared in my last post in Today's Finds ... but I could not detail the findings show that non-Metal ... this is the right place although not found in North America but if American " Indian "artifacts.
Greetings!
