[quote:Anonymous Coward 521172:MV82NTUzMzRfMTIwNjQ0OTRfREIyMUFDNEI=] [quote:Thoughts Faux Fodder] so many temple builder civilizations , just went Poof....really makes you wonder eh? [/quote] Interesting how 5 MAJOR civilizations all emerged at the exact same time on different areas of the globe with fully developed languages, laws, science, social structure, astronomy(That surpasses even some of todays knowledge), government and military. So much for the whole caveman evolution bid [/quote]

A 3,000-year-old temple featuring an image of a spider god may hold clues to little-known cultures in ancient Peru.
People of the Cupisnique culture, which thrived from roughly 1500 to 1000 B.C., built the temple in the Lambayeque valley on Peru's north coast.
The adobe temple, found this summer and called Collud, is the third discovered in the area in recent years. (Watch a video of the spider-god temple.)
