History sliding away
History sliding away Machu Picu, the famous lost city of the Inca's in
Peru, is in danger of being destroyed by landslides. Japanese
geologists have discovered that the slope behind the city is moving
downhill at a rate of one centimeter per month. This sliding is
thought to be the precursor to a rockfall or rockslide that could
cause severe damage to the World Heritage Site. MARCH 17, 2001
