Bird poop powered this pre-Hispanic kingdom

Popular Science

The Chincha Kingdom likely used seabird guano to fertilize their corn. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. When it comes to the success of ancient civilizations, the first things that come to mind are typically their military strength, roads, and trade.
