I was surprised that it appeared, as I thought I had deleted it..

It was a piece of Paracan tapestry. Paracas was a pre-Incan Peruvian culture (ca. 700 BC).

Sorry but you are an idiot if you believe the Amy Camus nonsense. That was a tabloid rumour that was disproven decades ago. Yma Sumac has recordings dating back to 1939 before she even left Peru. Also look up the 1942 recordings of miss Sumac in Argentina. Even the Peruvian embassy in Washington DC certified miss Sumacs Peruvian citizenship and place of birth as well as royal lineage. Do research before you post such silly things please.

You are right - only the spelling of her forename was changed from Imma to the more exotic Yma.
