epigraph

One of them is the head of a toad with anthropomorphic hands; while the other, found below it, is the head of a dead man. It should be noted that Vichama's occupation began around 1800 BC, and was abandoned around 1500 BC. Vichama comprises 136 hectares. The new finding is within the same context of the discovery of friezes last year, in which snakes are seen running through the heads of the deceased until they reach a seed. Archaeologists explained that both the snakes and the toad symbolize the water in the Andean culture and to the east is the Andes mountain range, where the rivers come with water for the valleys of the coast.
