Soil, box, sun, woman: In Peru, they were constructing a dam and to this end, soil was gathered from the surrounds. During the excavations, they found a box, containing little statue of the sun woman (godess). A nice archeological find, but detrimental for the dam building efforts, since the work was to be halted.
