Gerahmter Brief von Daniel Ruzo an die Royal Society of London.
Bucher follows the explorations of Daniel Ruzo on the Marcahuasi plateau in Peru. In the 1950s the Peruvian cryptologist and anthropologist discovered an ancient park of stone monuments on this Andean plateau, which he dated to around 10,000 years ago. The huge blocks of natural rock sculpted in a distinctive technique display their anthropomorphic, zoomorphic and mythological shapes only when the rays of the sun shine on them at specific times and seasons of the year. Bucher recorded the account of custodian Severiano Olivares during a visit to the plateau.
