The special storage structure of a spider

In August 2018, Troy Alexander was on a hike in Peru's Tambopata National Reserve when he discovered a very special figure built in silk on a bamboo trunk.
It was something completely new.People had never seen this before.It was not mentioned in any scientific biological book or had never been shown in a documentary.
Everyone wondered who built this remarkable little thing. It was given the name silk-henge because it draws so much on Stonehenge. It is a nodule made of silk threads with two eggs in between. In the middle of this egg pouch, a tall rigid antenna.This structure was also tidy, surrounded by long peaks, laid out in a circle. Also constructed with antenna-like stiff peaks.Like a fence around a territory.
Because it is built with silk, people immediately thought of a spider.But which one?
