A new study published in Science estimates that there are more than 10,000 undiscovered Pre-Columbian archaeological sites in the Amazon basin. Ancient earthworks built by pre-Columbian societies have already been found across the Amazon, and archaeologists believe that there may be thousands more waiting to be discovered. Researchers estimate that over 90 percent of pre-Columbian earthworks in the Amazon remain undiscovered. Additionally, a new study suggests that thousands of human archaeological sites may still be hidden beneath the Amazon rainforest canopy. It is also worth noting that ancient Amazonians intentionally created fertile soil known as terra preta to enhance their crop growth.
