I can´t remember what day it is but we went to some museums

Thats right, Jet lag´s got me all confused and i cant count what day it is without asking someone. Best I can tell its Friday and we are meeting up with 2 others tonight for a meal and off the THE AMAZON JUNGLE in the morning! Woot!!

Today we hired a taxi and checked out a few musems in town. The first Museum was friggen awsome and we learned heaps about the Incans and the many races before them.

Here we see Incan pottery of a demon disembowling the unfaithful - or some such.

and below some neat pottery and artisty wihich was pretty advanced and incredibly detailed.

This scene includes some of the creepiest dolls ever known to man working a loom. Seriously... how friggen creepy do they look?!?!

Here´s some fascinating knowledge for you... The ancient incans had such a vast empire that they had to keep comprehensive records of th crops, families etc and did so using a ystem of knots on ropes as seen in the below picture. Each thread identifies a set of information and each knot describes the quantity recorded at a given time. Like the Hooba Whatsit familly had 22 Llamas and one cow on the date of 201AD. Or something like that anyways... granted I´m not very good at paying attention when people talk to me...

The below is a lovely pottery worek that I thought depicted like a family day out with fun and frivolity until I read the little sign that said that this pottery shows one of the forms of human sacrifice carried out by the ancients whereby they would take peopl eto the top of the cliffs and throw them off... Delightful!

The Incans worhsipped both the Sun and the Moon and their high up priests and important people worse Gold (sun) and Silver (gold) as homage. check out this funky bit of mega bling! No wonder the Spannish were so happy to conquer ad plunder these guys!

Well wasn´t that a lovely learning experience kiddies... now onto the next Museum... The EROTIC ART GALLERY.

Hehehehehe check out these dudes going for it!
