-THE ISLAND LIFE-

High atop a remote cliff in the Utcubamba Valley, the towering sarcophagi of Carajía stand as silent sentinels of a forgotten era.

Created by the enigmatic Chachapoyas culture between the 9th and 15th centuries, these imposing structures, reaching up to 2.5 meters in height, are a testament to the Chachapoya's reverence for the dead.

Located in the Luya Province of Peru, each sarcophagus, intricately carved and nearly untouched by time, houses the mummified remains of ancient individuals revered as wise men by local tradition.

The Chachapoya were renowned for their practice of placing their deceased in the most inaccessible and awe-inspiring locations. The site at Carajía, perched precariously atop a sheer ravine, is a striking example of this tradition.

The preservation of these remarkable structures in such a treacherous spot adds to the allure and mystery of the Chachapoyas, a civilization that continues to captivate and intrigue scholars worldwide.
