The oldest human remains found in Peru were discovered in this cave; it\u2019s estimated they were buried in 9525 BC. As a result they serve as vital evidence to determine how Peru was initially populated. On another level in the same cave the remains of rock tools and implements of slightly more recent antiquity were also found. Their manufacture demonstrates that the people of Lauricocha knew the technical principles of stone-age industry. The hunters of Lauricocha lived a nomadic existence, dedicated to hunting in a “chaco” or ring formation to surround their prey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
