Ritual Zoque Cave Found in Mexico with 179 Artifacts Over 1,000 Years Old

Archaeologists discovered a ritual cave in southern Mexico containing 179 artifacts, including a censer with snake and quincunce motifs, and modified stalactites/stalagmites. The site is difficult to access, preserving the assemblage for centuries. Researchers will use lidar, 3D scanning, and vessel analysis to study the Zoque culture. This is a notable archaeological find, but its broader significance is limited to academic circles.
