Quimbaya Funerary Offerings
Colombia
Quimbaya Funerary Offerings belong to the mysterious Precolumbian Quimbaya civilization that was extant around 1000 CE and disappeared soon afterward without a trace. The people regarded gold as sacred, so gold funerary offerings are essential for the journey to the afterlife.
