In Peru Dan visits Machu Picchu, the last Inca capital after the Spanish Conquista (colonisation); the Inca salt pans; the Nazca Lines, traced by a mysterious civilization on a huge scale in the Andean desert; the Spider necklace of Sipán at Lamayeque and Chan Chan mud city at Trujilo. He travels via Chile's Easter Island (visiting the moai statues, last witnesses to a completely destroyed islander culture) to Brazil, where he visits the Umhara Indian headdress at Cuiabà and the giant Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro.
