A Sacrifice
“The fact that there are so many objects in one place is almost certainly tied to an act of honoration, most likely a sacrifice of some sort.”
“What particularly surprised us was that the objects were whole, because the culture that lived here at the time normally just buried fragments, often melted as well. These objects are beautiful, but the fact that they are complete and in good condition is of much more value to us.”
