These are two important carved stone pieces dating back to 1000 B.C. It also features the largest textile collection, with fabrics from the Pre-Ceramic period through the Inca Empire, and a major collection of ancient Peruvian metals.
Offering insights into Peru’s richly textured history, this small but well laid out museum will captivate you with some of the finest relics of ancient civilizations.
