Huaca Pucllana

This at least 2000 year old - pyramid in the middle of Limas Center.

We went there today and had a short excursion with a guide. Has been build as a ceremonial, ritual place. They found graves, with mummies adults and babies.

The babies, they supposed - Had a stronger connection to The other world's as they just came from there.

So, babies were the ones, who had to guide dead peoples souls the way 'back' after death.

Basi asked the guide if the babies where already dead or have been killed for that.

Yes.... They had other ideas of life than we do.

A strange feeling - ancient meets modern.

As the government doesn't support the archeological work or the holding of this ancient place with any soles they ( I don't know who are they,. The People who are in charge of this place) now run a small museum with a cosy reataurant and an homegrown veggie garden.

The modern Buildings around this Pyramide are probably build on more undicovered parts which belong to this ceremonial place.
