A local Indian who was the caretaker of an archaeological site was guarding the site one evening when he heard the sound of a machete chopping wood. 

He went in the direction of the sound, and as he rounded the corner of the temple, a small clay pellet whizzed past his head. Then he hid behind a piece of fallen masonry and heard more stones falling around him. 

Looking toward the rocks, he noticed a tiny human figure outlined in the wavering moonlight. The creature had a very large head with a jet-black beard and wore a white dress similar to clothing. 

He was carrying a machete is a standard size, slung over his shoulder is almost the same length as his body. He soon disappeared into the dense jungle.

A local Indian who was a caretaker of an archeological site was alone one evening guarding the site when he heard the sound of a machete chopping wood. He walked towards the direction of the sound and as he rounded a corner of the temple a small clay pellet whizzed by close to his head, he then hid behind a piece of fallen masonry and heard more stones falling around him. Looking in the direction of the stones he noticed a tiny man like figure, outlined in the wavering moonlight. The being had a very large head with a jet-black beard and wore a white dress like garment. He carried a standard size machete slung over his shoulder almost as long as his body. He soon disappeared into the thick jungle.
