Robots at Chavin de Huantar in Peru; New Discoveries

All terrain robots called the Chavin Rovers have been sent into narrow channels at the site of Chavin de Huantar in Peru. The robots have revealed burials of people who built the temple at the site. The dead are not of high standing and were probably sacrificed. They were buried face down under rocks. They will probably find more burials using the robots. 36 tunnels and passageways at the site connect with one another, but the labyrinth is not completely mapped yet.
