Our planet is full of marvels, but it’s also full of mysteries that challenge our understanding. While scientists do their best to explain some of these mysteries, the mere reason for their existence still remains unknown to us.

Just recently, archeologists working near Pisco Valley in Peru stumbled upon a striking mystery: A large mass of land riddled with man-sized holes carved into the barren rock.

Thousands of man-sized holes stretching for a mile are carved into the rock of the Andes Mountains.

Researchers were already aware of these strange holes but no one really knew their true extent until they used satellite photography to map the area.
