Umayo lake - Sillustani, Perù - a photo on Flickriver

            Sillustani è un sito archeologico pre-Inca sulle rive del lago di Umayo vicino a Puno in Perù. Le tombe rinvenute nel sito sono costruite fuori terra a forma di torre circolare, chiamate chullpas, sono opera del popolo Aymara Colla, conquistati dagli Inca nel 15° secolo. Le strutture ospitavano i resti di gruppi familiari completi, anche se sono probabilmente della sola nobiltà. Molte delle tombe sono state dinamite dai tombaroli, mentre altre furono lasciate incompiute.

Sillustani is a pre-Incan burial ground on the shores of Lake Umayo near Puno in Peru. The tombs, which are built above ground in tower-like structures called chullpas, are the vestiges of the Colla people, Aymara who were conquered by the Inca in the 15th century. The structures housed the remains of complete family groups, although they were probably limited to nobility. Many of the tombs have been dynamited by grave robbers, while others were left unfinished.
