    1. Foto-Reportage des Guardian über die indigene Bevölkerung in der Nähe des Quelccaya-Gletscher, der bereits etwa die Hälfte seines Umfangs durch die globale Erhitzung verloren hat. Das Abschmelzen des Gletschers trägt zur erheblich vergrößerten Trockenheit bei, die wiederum den Lebensunterhalt der Bevölkerung, der von der Alpaka Zucht bestimmt wird, erschwert und auf Dauer unmöglich machen dürfte. Die Reportage ist Teil des preisgekrönten Projekts "Hüter der Anden". https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2023/apr/18/andes-community-devastated-by-climate-crisis-quelccaya-glacier-peru

    1. for Lima, her destined port.

      Map of Lima, cir. 1750

      Lima was "founded)" by Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro, who assassinated the Inca ruler Atahualpa in his effort to claim Peru for the Spanish crown.

      As the seat of the Viceroyalty of Peru, Lima was also the center of the brutal Peruvian Inquisition, which ended for good in 1820.

      Painting of a victim of the Inquisition paraded through streets by afro-Peruvian painter Acuarela de Pancho Fierro (1807-1879).

    1. Peruanske byer er ifølge FN blant de minst ulike i Latin-Amerika. Her har uformell byvekst spilt en helt annen rolle, noe som er dokumentert i doktorgradsavhandlingen til den nederlandske geografen Michaela Hordijk. Helt siden 1950-tallet har et stort antall peruanere fra Andesfjellene okkupert land i utkanten av de store byene. Hovedstaden Lima hadde litt over en halv million innbyggere i 1940, og nærmer seg 8 millioner i dag. De såkalte «landinvasjonene» har delvis blitt oppmuntret av ulike regjeringer gjennom historien. Myndighetene sikret seg også at de nye bysamfunnene var relativt velorganiserte, ved kun å forhandle med organiserte nabolagsforeninger. Gjennom en gradvis innføring av lovgivning og tjenestetilbud tilpasset disse samfunnene, ble de gjennom noen tiår til urbane nabolag med sin rettmessige plass i byen.

    1. How Peru is using drones to protect its archaeological treasures

      Interesting read on the usage of drones in mapping archaeological sites. The composite image is made by taking overlapping aerial photographs. From this, 3D models of the sites can be made. This article discusses not only the archaeological benefits of drone use, but also how drones can help to keep tabs on any destruction occurring on the site.
