LIMA, Peru—Archaeologists in northern Peru have unearthed four human remains believed to be more than 3,000 years old in a stretch of barren land that appears to have housed a ceremonial temple honoring the gods of an ancient local culture.
The funeral bundles were found nestled between some mud and stone walls near a valley in the dry, coastal Viru Province in the South American nation’s La Libertad region, home to many major ancient cultures over the millennia.
