It was a great time to be back, and explore with Bob, Anne and Jesús Gamarra. My convictions on the ancient stonework of Cusco and surroundings have not changed much, but it was good to interchange ideas with friends that started with a fesh look! And to see some stonework I did not know yet. Also new projects ahead, archaeological explorations together with the ministry of culture, journeys and forestation projects.
Join our tours to explore these magnificent sites and to hear about the brilliant ideas and interpretations of the Gamarra's! See; http://usoks.weebly.com/usoks-tours.html We have still places available in May and August.

Tour to Peru update
Due
to demand, the Peru/Bolivia Etemenanki trip has been split into two
parts. This provides the opportunity, to those of you that prompted this
move, to focus on the unique investigative part of the trip that
concentrates on the ‘on the ground’ research with Jan Peter de Jong and
Jesus Gamarra.
Part 2 of the trip is now available as an add on.

Remains of Extinct Giant Camel Discovered in High Arctic by Canadian Museum of Nature
More proof of giant animals in the past:
"Ottawa, March 5, 2013—A research team led by the Canadian Museum of Nature has identified the first evidence for an extinct giant camel in Canada's High Arctic. The discovery is based on 30 fossil fragments of a leg bone found on Ellesmere Island, Nunavut, and represents the most northerly record for early camels, whose ancestors are known to have originated in North America some 45 million years ago."
