LIMA – A tomb at the Sipan archaeological site in northern Peru confirms that the ancient Moche people were contemporaries of Christ, scientists
say.
The head of the Huaca Rajada Sipan Archaeological Complex, Luis Chero, told Efe Monday that tombs are often found there that date back to the third
century, but this burial confirms that the Moche or Mochica civilization existed before that.
“Now with this tomb we have evidence of the early Moche, of their origins, which is to say from approximately 100 B.C.,” he said.
The discovery of a young warrior’s tomb was presented to the press two months ago, but the new studies at the place it was found have brought
further information to light as to its antiquity and also the age of the warrior, though other studies must be done to corroborate the findings.

of Lambayeque, and since then excavations have continued at the site.
We are just beginning to find evidence that Christ traveled to South America and elsewhere around the World.
