At the forefront of combining technological development with cultural and natural preservation, Conecta has launched a pioneering initiative: the Virtual Museum of Archaeology and Biodiversity. This digital space is established as an essential platform to highlight and value the natural and archaeological wealth of Guatemala, where Conecta executes its energy projects.
Through an interactive tool based on a virtual map, the museum allows users to explore archaeological encounters and biodiversity hotspots, offering a window into Conecta’s commitment to the conservation of Guatemala’s heritage.
An innovative tool for conservation
Conecta’s Virtual Museum of Archaeology and Biodiversity, accessible from its website, represents a significant effort to document and share the natural and archaeological riches that continue to be discovered in the country..
By interacting with the virtual map, visitors can discover the location of archaeological sites and biodiversity areas. Each click reveals detailed information about these points, reflecting Conecta’s dedication to the identification, preservation and conservation of these treasures.
Preserving Maya legacy and natural heritage
Guatemala, cradle of the impressive Mayan civilization, possesses a vast cultural legacy and exceptional biodiversity. Conecta, aware of its responsibility, has implemented the Archaeological Rescue and Research Program since 2012, protecting vestiges of ancient civilizations. This commitment extends to national legislation, working closely with the General Directorate of Cultural and Natural Heritage to safeguard this heritage during the development of electrical infrastructure.
To date, the program has uncovered 85 archaeological sites and analyzed nearly 17,000 artifacts, contributing significantly to the knowledge and appreciation of Guatemalan history.
Digital access to the history and nature of Guatemala
The Virtual Museum of Archaeology and Biodiversity offers Guatemalans and the entire world the opportunity to appreciate the efforts made to conserve the country’s millennia-old wealth. This digital initiative not only makes accessible the archaeological discoveries and natural wealth of the areas where Conecta operates, but also underscores the positive impact of the company’s activities on the knowledge and conservation of cultural and natural heritage.
By merging technology and conservation, Conecta advances the development of sustainable energy infrastructure and ensures that the country’s natural and archaeological heritage is recognized and protected for future generations.
