Western Luong Nu Quoc was found in America

More than a century ago, archaeologists working in the Chaco Gorge of New Mexico (USA) have unearthed a secret crypt.

The tomb contains the remains of 14 people who are members of the upper class, based on the number of jewelry and artifacts buried about 1,000 years ago. This tomb is located in the heart of Pueblo Bonito, the labyrinth of the labyrinth consists of 650 rooms.

Now, the researchers have the answer after analyzing the genetic gene for grave remains, combined with isotope identification techniques. According to a report published in Nature Communications, the lead researcher is Professor Douglas Kennett and colleagues at Pennsylvania State University (USA), who said that nine people buried in Pueblo Bonito's tomb are members of a dragging dynasty. more than 300 years, and have relationships through mothers. In other words, the ruling class in Chaco was handed down in the matriarchy.

"For the first time since embarking on the excavation of Chaco Gorge, we can say that a group of relatives have ruled Pueblo Bonito during that time," according to Dai's anthropologist Steve Plog. Study Virginia, one of the authors of the report. "This is the best proof that there has been a government system in the southwest of the United States in ancient times," said Plog.

The first of the 14 remains buried was a man in his 40s. At the time of the funeral, his body was adorned with thousands of turquoise beads, shells and artifacts must be collected. gather up the Pacific and Gulf of California, making it the most luxurious and sumptuous burial ceremony ever known in the southwestern United States.

Using DNA genetic material from the body, the scientists concluded 8 other people with their relationship with the man, according to the Scientific American page. This is considered a breakthrough discovery, because Chaco society does not save the writing system as more ancient civilizations, including the ancient Egyptians and Maya.
