Sacred Andes

Do the ancient gods of the Andes still live in the mountains? In search of an answer to this question I traveled thousands of miles in 2006, 2007 and 2008: from the deserts on the shore of the Pacific Ocean to the glaciers; from the sanctuaries at Lake Titicaca to the wilderness around the volcanoes. In 2007 archaeologists from the Centre for Pre-Columbian Studies of the University of Warsaw were my guides. In Peru and Bolivia they explore the past and preserve its traces.
