Authorities in Peru say a pyramid on one of the oldest archaeological sites in the Americas, parts of which date from 3,000 BC, has been destroyed by property developers.

After knocking down the 6m (20-foot) high building, which covered 2,500m (3,000 yards) square, the group scattered refuse over the rubble and set it ablaze.

At 3,000 BC, the complex would predate the Step Pyramid in Egypt and Stonehenge in England.

Unbelievable.

These ar$eholes should be fcuked into jail and the keys thrown away.

Dreadful news, but at least they were stopped from destroying three others.
What sort of person could or would do this?

More here, with images of the pyramid before it was destroyed.
