This initiative, focused initially on the 5,000-year-old Caral civilization, aims to deepen cultural ties between China and Peru. The project will involve training, surveys, excavations, and heritage preservation, with plans to later examine sites from the Inca period to facilitate comparative studies of ancient civilizations.
