Not Known (by us) in Tachira State, Venezuela.Stone pavement on a 30 degree angle.
Reina Duran (Venezuela's Tachira Museum) believes the structure may have been a religious site. The site is under threat from a hydroelectric project that threatens to flood the area.
Note: Archeologists may never solve the mysteries of a pre-Columbian indigenous site if Venezuela goes ahead with a plan to create a hydroelectric dam.
