Caral is a large archaeological site in the Supe Valley of Peru, about 120 miles north of Lima.

Caral has been found to be the oldest urban center of the Americas, belonging to the Norte Chico civilization. The area displays a lot of elements that were going to be perfected later by other Andean civilizations, such as <em>quipu</em> (a knotted, textile piece used for record keeping). The quipu is known because of the Inca, who perfected it. The evidence in Caral means this system of recording is much older than scientists had originally thought.

Caral was a thriving urban center at roughly the same time the pyramids of Egypt were being built, and it seems to have been well-known in antiquity. This implies that civilizations in South America might be much older that archaeologists thought, and achieved great accomplishments at a much earlier date than previously assumed. It appears to have been the model for the urban design of all major Andean cities of the next four millenia. Because of its level of preservation, its size, its influence and its age, it is very likely that Caral will provide us with the answers to a lot of questions regarding the origins of the Andean civilizations.

What were supreme courts views on corporation rights in late 1880s
Tomtit [17]

Corporate personhood is the legal notion that a corporation, separately from its associated human beings (like owners, managers, or employees), has at least some of the legal rights and responsibilities enjoyed by natural persons (physical humans).[1] In the United States and most countries, corporations have a right to enter into contracts with other parties and to sue or be sued in court in the same way as natural persons or unincorporated associations of persons. In a U.S. historical context, the phrase 'Corporate Personhood' refers to the ongoing legal debate over the extent to which rights traditionally associated with natural persons should also be afforded to corporations. A headnote issued by the Court Reporter in the 1886 Supreme Court case Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad Co. claimed to state the sense of the Court regarding the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment as it applies to corporations, without the Court having actually made a decision or issued a written opinion on that point. This was the first time that the Supreme Court was reported to hold that the Fourteenth Amendment's equal protection clause granted constitutional protections to corporations as well as to natural persons, although numerous other cases, since Dartmouth College v. Woodward in 1819, had recognized that corporations were entitled to some of the protections of the Constitution. In Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc. (2014), the Court found that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 exempted Hobby Lobby from aspects of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act because those aspects placed a substantial burden on the closely held company's owners' exercise of free religion.[2]
