During our brief stay among the ruins it was

cover of nearly a square league, and
Mddendorf estimates their extent at four square
kilometers. From my observations the ruins
consist OF houses built of immense adobe blocks
closely adjoining each other here and there sep

of several apartments. Admission is gained
through low doorway. but nowhere is there a
sign of window. AS in Pompeii the roofs

Squier thus describes the ruins as he saw
them:
These consist of three great groups of build

Unfortunately Cajamarquilla furnishes little

OF value they may have contained.
Yet the ruins Of the greatest interest for
the beauty of their situation, their general plan,
and their adobe architecture. Cajamarquilla
must rank as one of the finest remains of that
mysterious pre-Inca civilization which existed on
the coast between the Pacific ocean and the
mighty Andean ranges Unlike the massive
ruins on Lake Titcaca, or the aforementioned
Pachacamac it has attracted little attention on
the part either of tourist or scientist and it's
history does not exist Yet careful study Of

also find some material in the skulls that lie
scattered throughout the ruined city, or buried
in its pits

that the boys had hardly time to get

The tent, which was built of bag

four boys. Raymond Kimball, Clarence

with the tent itself, are now in ashes.
