Welcome to the Adventure
My name is Raul Bilecky. I’m a researcher, explorer, and the creator of Pillars of the Past. My passion for ancient civilizations, refined through decades of dedicated research and exploration, inspire the ongoing study of historical sites and the cultures that shaped them. Driven by deep familial connections to Peru, my heritage informs – and is inextricably intertwined with – my love for the country's ancient history. I established Pillars of the Past to explore newly discovered and forgotten ancient locations, and to fulfill the essential mission – of documentation, investigation, and preservation.
See what we can find together!
It is my hope and goal to put together a professional team to capture, document, and investigate these ancient sacred sites further, and to provide awareness of the threats many of these locations face.
These sites deserve so much more than just me, a couple of GoPro’s, and my phone.
