El yacimiento arqueológico La Tunita, se encuentra ubicado al este de la sierra de Ancasti, provincia de Catamarca Argentina, donde se llega caminando aproximadamente 2 o 3 horas, al comienzo bordeando y cruzando varias veces el río, y luego trepando el cerro por senderos rodeados por bosques de cebil, de cuyas vainas los chamanes de las tribus perteneciente a la cultura de La Aguada obtenían mediante la molienda, una substancia alucinógena, la cual era fumada por ellos como parte de rituales. Al llegar, En las cuevas y aleros que allí se encuentran se pueden observar numerosas pinturas rupestres, muchas con motivos felínicos principalmente el jaguar, también se pueden observar figuras humanas con máscaras, algunos cazadores y muchas otras figuras que me son difíciles de interpretar por no ser especialista en el tema, pero que realmente son dignas de admirar. El yacimiento arqueológico La Candelaria, guarda también un importante contenido pictórico. Por su gran riqueza cultural y arqueológica, estos lugares se merecen a mi sano juicio de un cuidado especial, ya que en mi visita realizada hace muy poco tiempo pude observar deterioro de algunas imágenes, ocasionadas por personas que no valoran lo que en aquel lugar se encuentra. El conocer este sitio fue realmente maravilloso.

Salta to Cachi (and back): Argentina Travel Trip. Leaving beautiful Purmamarca, we traveled by bus in the capable hands of our driver, Pepe to Salta. Salta has a population of 700000 and is a beautiful city with strong Spanish Colonial influences. We visited the Museum of High Altitude Archaeology which focuses on the Incas and their world, including an incredible exhibit of the mummified remains of three children and their belongings uncovered by archaeologists in 1999 at he summit of nearby Llullaillaco Volcano, one of 60 such sites in Salta Province. Our short stay also included a walk through town and a ride to a park above the city for an overview. From Salta,Pepe took us along the Cuesta del Obispo and into Los Cardones National Park. We had lunch in Valle Encantada and then went on to Cachi for the evening. Before returning to Salta, we went to Molinos and Seclantas to visit the Road of Artisans and the Guzman family, noted weavers. The Vicuna Foundation, dedicated to preserving and promoting vicuna wool, and the town museum were our two stops in Molinos.

Digging Through the Bible: David and Goliath - www.israelnationalnews.com Archaeology: Digging for the Truth of the Bible - www.youtube.com Scrolls 2000 Years Old Prove the Bible - www.youtube.com by Dr. Patton Seattle Creation Conference, October 2009 by Steven Austin Description: The lost cities are linked biblically to the region occupied by the cities of the plain. The key to locating the cities of the plain is to find the surviving city of Zoar . These cities must be southeast of the Dead Sea in the vicinity of modern Safi in the country of Jordan . Spectacular archaeological sites (Early Bronze III) exist that date to the time of Abraham. These cities show evidence of catastrophic collapse and burn. The cities were not rebuilt. The evidence points to a regional shaking event and a regional fire, even outside the walls of fortified cities. A regional earthquake associated with natural gas eruption and atmospheric ignition is the favored scenario for the natural/supernatural disaster. Those cities became famous for the nature of human wickedness, the swiftness of Gods judgment and the deliverance of the righteous. This video file is a 60 minute seminar by Steven Austin that was recorded during the Seattle Creation Conference, October 2009. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About the Speaker: Dr. Steven A.

My age is 26 and I was born in Buenos Aires --Argentina- in a middle class family who always encourages me the importance to study in order to get a safer future. So now, I am doing my PhD in Archaeology in a country whose economy, actually, is not stable at all, but I keep cheering up anyway. I absolutely love travelling, dancing, and I wish to have kids as soon I finish my studies.

El día 24 de Abril la Comisión nacional que gestiona ante la UNESCO la declaración de "Patrimonio de la Humanidad" a los tramos que recorren Argentina del "Camino Inca", presentó un Taller de explicación del programa en el Valle de Uspallata (Las Heras) y recogió las dudas y preguntas de la población local del valle de Uspallata, de científicos y Organizaciones de la Sociedad Civil (OSC). La Fundación Da Vinci adhirió a este Taller y presentó aportes para fortalecer el programa Municipal en Uspallata. Reconocimos la falta de información de la población local de este Programa Nacional, coordinada a nivel provincial por la Dirección de Patrimonio, dependiente del Ministerio de Cultura de la Provincia de Mendoza. También se observa la preocupación por el impacto de emprendimientos turísticos y cambios en el estilo de vida del lugar. También se dice, que si el Programa tiene contemplado el desarrollo local y la conservación responsable de los lugares asociados al Camino Inca (Tambos, Tambillos, corrales, etc.), se pide que por medio de un CONSEJO CONSULTIVO con propiedades vinculantes, pueda participar en el diseño del Plan de Intervención y conservación de esos lugares.
