750 to 800 AD. Panama, Coclé Province, El Caño Archaeological Park. Gold-covered sperm whale teeth earrings are located in a tomb. They were crafted in the shapes of crocodiles, humans, and animals. This makes sense because the province where the tomb was located lies on the Gulf of Parita. It is only 127 km from the continental shelf which would be ideal for Cachalots to strand. They were not actively hunted by the indigenous peoples so whale strandings were the likely source of the cetacean material.
MASS WHALE STRANDINGS CAUSED BY METEOROIDS AND METEOR SHOWERS. The completed paper can be found below in the January 7th post titled Connection between Meteoroids and Mass Whale Strandings. “It is not known why they sometimes run aground on the seashore: for it is asserted that this happens rather frequently when the fancy takes them and without any apparent reason.” -Arisotle
