Archaeologists discovered geometric carvings hidden on structures at Sapo Rumi — wetting the rock surface reveals ancient designs more clearly. Multiple round indentations were carved into surfaces, with straight lines running from bottom to top through the rocks. Some lids remain intact, propped up against structures to reveal internal round chambers — hinting at hidden contents meant to stay concealed.
