Bag om Archaeological Evidence Of Pre-Spanish Visits To The Galapagos Islands
Archaeological Evidence Of Pre-Spanish Visits To The Galapagos Islands is a research article written by Thor Heyerdahl and published in the October 1956 issue of American Antiquity. The article explores the possibility of pre-Spanish visits to the Galapagos Islands by analyzing archaeological evidence found on the islands. Heyerdahl uses a combination of historical accounts, oral traditions, and archaeological findings to argue that the islands were visited by pre-Columbian South American cultures, particularly the Inca and the pre-Inca Chim������. The article provides detailed descriptions and analyses of various artifacts discovered on the islands, including pottery, stone tools, and human remains. Heyerdahl's research challenges the conventional belief that the Galapagos Islands were first discovered by the Spanish in the 16th century and sheds new light on the history of the islands and their early human inhabitants.Foreword By Erik K.
