Sillustani


Sillustani is the town name on Lake Umayo. It's known for it's pre-Inca and Inca stone tombs. Mummies (mummified in the fetal position) were placed in round, stone tombs. Each has a tiny door facing east. The one in this picture is an Inca tomb. Only nobility were buried in such a tomb. Posted by Hello
