Colombia.  San Agustín is one of the most extraordinary archaeological sites in South America. Over a fairly compact area in the mountains there are more than 500 rough carved statues of men, animals and a variety of unknown gods. The majority were made probably between 100BC and 700 AD and the site is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
