Description

The present proposal is oriented towards the development of a museum on the spot where the starting point would be the reconstruction of the sphere groups documented by archaeologists such as Samuel Lothrop and Doris Stone, who were able to observe the sphere groups in their original site to arranging the return of the spheres to their original site where they made seeks to arouse awareness about the importance, protection and preservation of the ones still "in situ". It is believed that the reconstruction of such groups to offering an attractive visiting place could enable their study in relation to possible associations with astronomic phenomena.
