Gran Saposoa

Also known as: Гран-Сапосоа, გრან-საპოსოა

A series of ruins in the Andean cloud forests, brought to international attention by explorer Gene Savoy in 1999 [1] [2] [3]. Scholars dispute Savoy's claims, noting the sites were previously located by Keith Muscutt and Inge Schjellerup in the mid-1990s [1].
