An expedition
All the way back in 1999, a woman named Constanza Ceruti and her colleague John Reinhard were looking for something up in the mountains of Argentina. They were both archaeologists and were dead set on the idea that something must be up there, deep in mountains where rarely anyone has looked before.
They gathered their things and prepared to make the trip to a Volcano that was located in the northwest part of the country. They had a hunch, due to some prior research that something was there just waiting to be found. What happened next is something that nobody saw coming at all.
