Uncovering Secrets of the Amazon
Researchers using LiDAR technology have uncovered evidence of an extensive ancient civilization beneath the Amazon rainforest in Brazil’s Acre state. They identified hundreds of earthworks, suggesting the civilization covered approximately 183,000 square kilometers and supported a population of up to three million people between 100 and 300 AD. The findings reveal that much of the region's ancient history remains hidden beneath dense vegetation, detectable only through laser mapping.
