EDITORS COMMENTS
San Agustín: A Window into Colombia's Pre-Columbian Past at Alto de los Idolos, Huila Nestled in the verdant rolling hills of Colombia's Huila department lies the archaeological site of San Agustín, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that offers a unique glimpse into the rich pre-Columbian history of this South American country. This image, taken in the sunlight, showcases one of the most intriguing relics of this ancient culture: the figure of an eagle and snake from Alto de los Idolos. The site of San Agustín is home to over 500 statues, most of which date back to the 1,000 B.C. to A.D. 1,500. The figure of the eagle and snake, depicted in this photograph, is a testament to the advanced artistic skills of the pre-Columbian civilization that inhabited this region. The sculpture, which is approximately 4th century B.C., is a vertical, outdoor piece, measuring around 1.5 meters in height. The eagle, a symbol of power and strength, is shown with its wings spread wide, while the snake, a symbol of transformation and renewal, coils around its body. The pre-Columbian culture of San Agustín is believed to have been influenced by the Chibcha people, who worshipped various deities, including the god of the sun, the moon, and the rain. This figure of the eagle and snake might have represented a solar deity, as the eagle was often associated with the sun, while the snake symbolized the renewal of life through the cycle of the seasons. This striking image invites us to ponder the mysteries of the past and the enduring legacy of the pre-Columbian cultures that once thrived in Colombia. The figure of the eagle and snake at Alto de los Idolos stands as a testament to the creativity, artistic prowess, and spiritual beliefs of these ancient people, whose stories continue to captivate and inspire us today.
