Geoglyph destroyed in northern Peru

Peru
Near Trujillo the Triple Spiral geoglyph has been completely destroyed by individuals wishing to use the land for agriculture. This is a very sad incident and an ongoing problem for the cash-strapped archaeological organisations in Peru. The country is also so vast, it’s population relatively small, and there simply isn’t the logistical reasoning for twenty-four-hour security on many sites.
