Honduras.
A once-in-a-lifetime discovery that cannot be underestimated, a lost city in Honduras, possibly the fabled ‘White City’, has been discovered in a remote and dangerous jungle area. Here are some key facts:
1) The culture that built it is completely unknown and it has no relation to any of the nearby Maya sites.
2) No one knows how old it is.
3) It has never before been explored…
4) The culture, therefore, has no name.
5) The ruins were first discovered in May 2012 but the site has been kept a secret for fear of looters stealing the objects (even though archaeologists “loot” sites for museums, but that’s another argument!)
6) The site was discovered by the use of Lidar – the new radar mapping technique that is revealing how extensive known sites actually were and also helping archaeologists to discover new sites.
7) Archaeologists believe the city is one of many cities that remain undiscovered in the rainforest, thus giving us an entire lost civilisation.
