Jose Miguel Perez Gomez is a Venezuelan explorer and archaeologist. Since very early age he was captivated by nature, for having grown up in the midst of a natural park area, known as the “Peaks of Europe”, in the Asturias southeastern region, in Spain. He is a rock climber, a mountaineer, an expert in survival, a skydiver and one of the first scuba divers that have explored and traversed flooded caves in South America. With more than 40 years of explorations in the Guiana highlands he has become an expert guide for these unknown territories of Venezuela, where he has organized and led over 100 expeditions to the present, including scientific, (GEO Magazine # 4. April Issue. pp.11-48, Hamburg, Germany, 1986. National Geographic Magazine, May issue, 1989), discovering new geographical features and reaching places where no human has ever been before.
Jose Miguel is an accomplished athlete and has performed in several triathlons, survival and adventure racings. He is also a naturalist and environmentalist, and has presented scientific conferences, including archaeological, at schools, universities, and other institutions internationally. In addition, he is a Heli-tactic, a rescuer and has worked as a survival instructor with the military in Venezuela. He has also worked as director of sports, in the government administration, developing social programs of sporting activities for low-income communities. Jose Miguel is also an inventor and designer of sporting goods. His fitness product “Superbar” not only is a social program for sport massification, attending thousands of people of all ages at the present in Venezuela, but this same product has earned him an Invention Patent in the US, where actually he is launching this product to the US fitness enthusiasts.
Despite the many activities undertaken by Jose Miguel, he considers himself a born explorer and a passionate for archeology. His archaeological skills have led him to discover several pre-Hispanic sites in remote savannas and forest areas, some of them containing rock art, as well as several Colonial archaeological sites in distinct places of Venezuela, such as the salt mining operations during the XVII and XVIII centuries at “La Tortuga Island”, or the discovery of a small Spaniard fortress in the middle of the Orinoco river, dating around 1777. In 1998 he promoted and participated as a scuba diver in the international underwater expedition that discovered to the world the shipwreck of the “sun king” of France Louis XVI, considered one of the largest and most important shipwrecks in the Atlantic World and the Caribbean Sea.
Since 2007 Jose Miguel has been leading a team of international researchers in the search for the “Lake Parime”, which after several years of study finally has been found by using state of the art satellite remote sensing technologies. In October 2019 Jose Miguel and his team presented the results of this research at the TerraSAR-X / TanDEM-X Science Team Meeting, held at the “Microwave and Radar Institute, German Aerospace Center” (DLR), in Germany, where the results were confirmed by several scientists. This fossil lake has been searched for most conquerors and explorers since the beginning of the XVI century, until early XIX century, being depicted in most manuscript maps of the continent, and mentioned by the Indians.
