A little miss leading title!!

The Chachapoyas were a tall, fairhaired, light-skinned race that some researchers believe may have come from Europe.SOME researchers believe! Not proven yet the true origins. In science there is a big difference between maybe and 'is'.

It is a neat find though! :)

Shanti,

Maybe I should've entitled that one differently. That's why I put the word 'European' in quotes, because it's just a theory that the Chachapoyas came from Europe. It's late and me typin o' stuff be gettin bad:\...

Regardless, this is an amazing find that could rewrite the historical record. I'd like to know more about the Chachapoyas and I hope this discovery really blossoms into more solid info about them.

--L.B.I'm sorry as I am tired too and to touchy.

But the find is neat. I don't see why they shouldn't learn quite a bit from it. Seems like there is a lot to behold in that site.
