Introduction
The Royal Tombs of Sipán Museum lies in Lambayeque, Peru, displaying the astonishing 1987 discovery of a Moche 'Lord of Sipán' tomb — gold masks, jewellery and ritual objects recreating the splendour around AD 250. The building itself rises in tiers evoking the tomb, and it is the foremost hall for understanding the craft, faith and power of the Andean pre-Inca civilisation.
