点评:More than 500 statues have been uncovered in the San Agustin region and although many still remain right where they were found, a lot are also housed at this Archaeological Park.
The statues are carved from volcanic stone and represent various sacred animals and anthropomorphic figures. Different sections within the park include an outdoor museum with 9 exhibits, a statue forest that’s about half a mile, funerary sites which contain some of the park’s most famous statues, a work of hydraulic engineering, and the important Alto del Lavapatas where remains of a home were found.
Tickets for foreigners cost about 65,000 Colombian Pesos (or about $17 US). This ticket (or what they call passport) is a little booklet with maps and info on the archaeological sites in town, and it’s valid at the three archaeological parks in the area (San Agustin, Alto de las Piedras, and Alto de los Ídolos) for two days.
Overall it's an awesome historical site to visit that I highly recommend!
翻译:在圣奥古斯丁地区,已发掘出500多尊雕像。虽然许多雕像仍保留在当初被发现的地点,但也有大量雕像被陈列在这个考古公园中。
这些雕像由火山石雕刻而成,展现了各种神圣的动物以及拟人化形象。公园内设有多个区域:一个拥有9件展品的露天博物馆、一条长约半英里的“雕像林”,还有埋葬着公园中最著名的一些雕像的墓地。一处水利工程遗迹,还有重要的阿尔托·德尔·拉瓦帕塔斯遗址,那里发现了房屋的遗迹。
外国游客的门票价格约为65,000哥伦比亚比索(约合17美元)。这张门票(或称为“通行证”)是一本小册子,上面有地图以及镇上各考古遗址的相关信息;该门票在两天内可用于游览该地区的三个考古公园:圣奥古斯丁、阿尔托·德·拉斯·皮德拉斯和阿尔托·德·洛斯·伊多洛斯。总的来说,这是一个非常值得参观的历史遗迹,我极力推荐!
