The Museo Cabrera houses the famous — or infamous — Ica Stones, an enormous collection of carved andesite stones that the late Dr Javier Cabrera believed were prehistoric artefacts proving humans coexisted with dinosaurs. The carvings show all manner of unlikely scenes, from surgeons performing heart transplants to people riding triceratops.
Cabrera spent his life defending the stones' authenticity, and the museum is a kind of shrine to that cause, run by his daughter. Even sceptics — and there are many — find the collection compelling for the sheer scale of it and for the story behind it. The museum is small, idiosyncratic, and unlike anything else in Peru.
