"Unveiling the Hidden Secrets: Ancient Human-Made Structures Discovered in Pristine Amazon Rainforest"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by WION
Recent research using laser mapping and modeling has revealed that the Amazon rainforest, once thought to be untouched, is actually hiding thousands of ancient human-made structures. These structures, including ditches, geoglyphs, ponds, and wells, along with domesticated trees and crops, provide evidence of the long history of human influence on the rainforest. The findings have implications for understanding the magnitude of ancient human impact on the Amazon and for land rights of indigenous groups.
