Man-Made Monument or Natural Phenomenon? Sacred Face of the Harakbut Declared Cultural Heritage of Peru

The film, which you can watch below, includes Tayori saying ‘Four years ago working with the Sapiteri [a Harakbut clan] we heard about, from the elders, the Rostro. [It] means a lot to us’, and Korisepa saying ‘The Rostro has always existed. The problem was we didn’t know how to get to it.’ After they finally come face-to-face with it, Tayori says, “This is a reunion with our ancestors. I think this could strengthen our people. . . It was very emotional seeing the Rostro.’
