Pre-Incan ‘Floor of Thunder’ Found Where Ritual Dances Atop Stone Platform Made Booming Footsteps Like Thunder

Archaeologists have discovered a pre-Incan dance Floor in Peru that was designed to create booming noises like thunder. The floor, found at the Viejo Sangayaico site, could accommodate 26 dancers and was hollow underneath with resonant materials to enhance the sound. It is believed that the floor was built to honor the god of mountains and lightning, and was likely used for rituals and ceremonies. The discovery raises the question of whether similar dance floors exist in other Incan and pre-Incan settlements.
