Peru has claimed there was damage but there is no description of it. Evidence?
Yes it wasn't the smartest thing they could have done, but I'm with Chas here. The letters are cutouts which were laid on top of the ground, and I'm not seeing this most visible of all lines they damaged. Did they erase it completely?
That is good to know.
Quote:he activists placed yellow letters next to a famous hummingbird design, and now Peruvian authorities are threatening to sue Greenpeace and criminally charge the activists with "attacking archaeological monuments," according to The Associated Press.
Even after reading the CNN article, I assumed that placing the letters meant that they painted them which seems amazingly disrespectful. I am glad to learn that they placed cutouts on the site. Still a stupid thing to do but hopefully, they can rectify the damage.
