MACHU PICCHU EXHIBITION IN LIMA




A very important part of the precious Machu Picchu legacy has arrived in Lima.  Almost four hundred pieces of human bones, artifacts and ceramics were presented in the Government Palace by President Alan Garcia.

The exhibition is open to the public, free of charge, until April 12 (9am to 8pm), according to the Culture Ministry’s director of museums and management of historic heritage, Marisol Ginocchio.  “After the exhibition, all of the pieces and fragments will be repack to be sent to Cusco, where they will also be exhibited in the Casa Concha,” Ginocchio said.

The Casa Concha is owned by San Antonio Abad del Cusco National University (UNSAAC).  Yale University will collaborate with UNSAAC to make the International Center for Machu Picchu, which will include a museum and research facilities.

Now it is the time for the experts to use this invaluable opportunity to continue digging to solve the mysteries that the ancient Citadel and the whole Inca Empire still hold within their rocks, but also in every grain of dust contained in their vessels.

Meanwhile, have you already make plans to see them?  What are you waiting for?
