Sican, Sipan a Tucume

---

Rano jsme si mohli dele polezet, protoze nase tura co jsme si den predtim zamluvili, zacinala az o 10.30. Cestovali jsme v hodne pekne dodavce jeste s druhym parem z Peru, soferem a pruvodkyni. Prvni zastavkou bylo mestecko Ferrenafe, asi 20 minut od Chiclaya, kde maji paradni muzeum venovane kulture Sican. Slo hlavne o poklady nalezene v hrobkach v Batan Grande, kde byli pochovani vyznamni stechtici teto kultury - jeden z nich byl pochovany v embryo poloze, hlavou dolu - jak divne...Jde o kulturu mezi lety 800-1100 po Kristu. Pote nas cesta vedla do Tucume, vyznamneho udoli pyramid - ne jako ty egyptske. Tyto jsou postaveny z cihel z blata a moc dlouho nevydrzi. diky El Ninu vam doslova mizi pred ocima - kazda bourka je eroduje a dalsi cihla je odplavena a meni se na blato. I tak s kouskem predstavivosti muzete videt o jak rozsahle stavby slo. Nakonec zbyvalo muzeum kralovskych hrobek panu ze Sipanu - pozor Sipan a Sican jsou 2 odlisne kultury!!Taky nas to matlo. Toto muzeum je proste skvele- uz sama budova v rude barve a tvar pyramidy, ne nepodobna te v parizskem Louvru. Vse bylo prehledne, spousta interaktivnich videi a 3D prezentaci. Zcela se vyrovna evropskym muzeim. Fotky dodame pozdeji...

In the morning we had a lay-in because our trip that we booked yesterday started at 10.30. We travelled in quite good truck wiht another couple form Peru, a driver and a female guide. First stop was small town Ferrenafe, 20 minutes from Chiclayo where is a great museum dedicated to Sican culture. Its mainly about the treasures found in the tombs at the pyramids in Batan Grande where important noblemen were buried. One of them was buried in embryo position head down - how weird... After then we went to Tucume important valley of the pyramides - not like one in Egypt, these ones are built from mud bricks and dont last very long, because of El Nino they are disappearing in front of your eyes. Every tempest erodes them and another brick bites the dust. Nevertheless with some imagination you can see that those pyramids were once magnificent. In the end there was the museum of tombs of Senores of Sipan - be careful Sipan and Sican are two different cultures, we were confused a bit too. This museum is just brilliant, impressive building in red shaped like a pyramide looking like the one in Loure. Everything was systematicly done, lots of interactive videos and 3D presentations. This museum can easily match any european ones. Photos later...
