Some of those belts that are still being woven by the Inca descendents today all over the Andes Mountains, and sold frequently as souvenirs. Easy to carry in a backpack.
Nazca Inca Museum
| Small, maybe, in an out of the way place like Nazca, maybe, but a collection of quality items, with a backyard that is part of the 2000-year-old pre-Inca irrigation system, still functional. If you come this far, don't miss this place. If you fly to look at the lines, that will most likely be a morning flight, so after you get home, make a b-line for this wonderful museum, if at all possible. Most of the items I depict here, I have no information on at this time. That may change later on. |

Very creative vase, but a theme that is seen elsewhere, too. |

Fish on a water container, maybe? |

The skull deformations are typical of the Inca culture. The hole may indicate a medical procedure. |
 |
Cats? Maybe the one at the bottom a jaguar? |
