Stone Path

Living heritage

A well-defined stone path that leads to the upper part of the trail, toward the area known as 'the workshop', where ancient artisans carved stones to create the anthropozoomorphic sculptures.

Professor Llanos (1984) documented that the settlement was articulated by a network of pre-Hispanic channels and roads. This stone path is one of the best-preserved fragments of that ancient infrastructure. Wide roads were also identified that, in some sites in the region, led to sacred places on hilltops.

Documented heritage · UNAL · ICANH

Every lithic element at Vegonia was documented with the National University. The pieces were never moved to a museum: you see them exactly where they have rested for centuries.
