	Cumbe Mayo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cumbe Mayo is located about 12 miles (19 km) southwest of the Peruvian city of Cajamarca, at an elevation of approximately 11,000 feet (3,300 meters).
		The name Cumbe Mayo may be derived from a Quechua phrase, kunpi mayu, meaning “well-made water channel,” or hunpi mayo, meaning “thin river.” There are a number of petroglyphs on the aqueduct and surrounding caverns.
		This remote mountainous region is also the location of a "stone forest" composed of natural volcanic rocks which have been shaped by erosion.
