... that a group of farmers discovered The Young Woman of Amajac while preparing to till the land on a citrus field? Source: "Local farmers found the figure in a citrus field in the town of Hidalgo Amajac, in the Mexican state of Veracruz" (Live Science); "agricultores que preparaban la tierra para la siembra de cítricos se toparon con una piedra extraña" ("farmers preparing the land for citrus planting came across a strange rock") (Milenio)
Hi Tbhotch, review follows: article created 13 October; article exceeds minimum length; I made a number of changes to improve grammar, please check you are happy with these; sources used look to be reliable, though I am not familiar with some of them; hook is interesting and mentioned in the article (another good hook might be its proposed replacement of the Columbus statue), AGF on Spanish language sourcing for "preparing to till the land", which I assume is equivalent to the translation you give of "preparing the land for citrus planting"; I didn't pick up any overly close paraphrasing form the English language sources; a QPQ has been carried out. Interesting new article, shame we don't have a free picture of it - Dumelow (talk) 05:52, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Good stuff Tbhotch, I've added it here. Image licensing looks to be OK (the link from the Mexico City government website to the license was broken for me but it's there at the bottom of the page with the description "CDMX Open Government License") - Dumelow (talk) 06:28, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
