More from Lima

 Tues a.m. 11/01711... a few more pics from Lima at the weekend ...

Ancient pre-Inca ruins built of adobe bricks

Ceramic masks (modern)

Skulls in Crypt of Monastery of  St Francis

For those potters out there - an example of the many ceramic works

A quipu - an Inca abacus for recording information
- each string is knotted, each knot records numbers

The golden ceremonial outfit of a Pre-Inca Chieftain
(the poor quality pic is because it was taken secretly with pocket camera)


typical local transport
