The ancient cultures, both in Peru and in much of the world, believed in the existence of a second life after death or in the reincarnation of the body in another living being.

For this reason, many of the deceased were buried with offerings and even their most precious objects.]]> 2021-09-08 18:30:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mariaalejandraleonulloa/tgwtntypylsr6p27/wish/1725759548 mariaalejandraleonulloa https://padlet.com/mariaalejandraleonulloa/tgwtntypylsr6p27/wish/1725760133 Their impressive tombs are two kilometers long by 200 meters wide and are made of adobe.
