As per a research, over 2,000 pieces of ceramic, gems and gold objects have been found at a ceremonial site, which is lying below the waters of Lake Titicaca.

The excavation has been carried out by a group of Belgian and Bolivian archaeologists. Project leader Christophe Delaere was of the view that some of the items are quite old. It would not be wrong to affirm that certain items origin dates back a millennium.

Delaere has affirmed that they have carried out a televised meeting with President Evo Morales. In the meeting, they have told Morales that these materials belong to the Tiwanaku and Inca cultures.

The objects have been around seven metres underwater. Delaere from the Huinaimarca Project has affirmed that the pieces of gold leaf were found in anthropomorphic forms.

"[The pieces] have incredible historical value, because they're the first pieces of gold we've discovered [.] There are also ceramics, urns, that are 500 to 800 years old", affirmed Delaere.

Study researchers have been able to identify certain pieces. Some of the pieces have been found at a site known as Khoa Reef. It is the place, where the Inca and Tiahuanaco cultures used to offer religious offerings.
