Looted child burial with copper staining hair attached to the scalp, originally uploaded by Nathan Craig.
Note: Unfortunately, in order to upload this image from Peru, I had to downsize the photograph considerably.
The word huaca (also waka) is a quechua word that refers to an ancient site or sacred place. To huaquear is 'to loot'...huaqueando - looting. This site is dedicated to providing a graphic image of destruction of archaeological sites caused by looting.
