Two more circles built by the Tequesta Tribe about 2,000 years ago have been uncovered in downtown Miami.
The new circles form a 36-foot wide concentric ring on Miami's north waterfront. Although they don't know the exact meaning or purpose of the circles, archaeologists said the find is significant.
A 38-foot wide circle discovered on the south side of the waterfront halted development but the new circles aren't expected to affect plans for condominiums, stores and offices.
