瓦卡

Off to the right I can see Queenstown, the crown jewel of Lake Wakatipu and the beginning of our road trip.

就在湖的左边我看到了昆士城，这座城市是瓦卡蒂普湖上的皇冠宝石，也是我们公路游的起点。

We found her buried with mercury(9) sulfide(10) that helped eliminate(11) microorganisms(12) and help the preservation(13), said Regulo Franco, one of the archeologists who has spent 16 years excavating(14) the Huaca Cao Viejo pyramid with funding from a Peruvian bank.

她被硫化水银浸泡着，这样能避免微生物的侵蚀、有利于尸体的保存。佛朗哥和其他考古学家在秘鲁银行的支持下在胡瓦卡·曹·威约金字塔挖掘了16年。

The Moche's Huaca Cao Viejo pyramid is covered in reliefs(22) that suggest prisoners were sacrificed to the gods by a warrior-priest.

莫切胡瓦卡·曹·威约金字塔中有很多浮雕，讲述一位勇士祭司用战俘祭奠众神。

The valleys on the edge of Lake Wakatipu also offer many hair-raising adventures, from whitewater rafting to parasailing.

瓦卡帝普湖边的山谷也提供许多刺激的冒险活动，从漂流到帆伞运动样样都有。

I take the cercanias train to work each day and along the track just after leaving Principe Pio, towards Aravaca, are some actual works of art.

He arrived in Waka, in present-day Guatemala, as an envoy from a great power in the highlands of Mexico.

Flanked by his warriors, he marched into the Maya city of Waka, past temples and markets and across broad plazas.

他在战士左右护卫下长驱直入，进到马雅的瓦卡城，经过神庙和市集，穿越宽阔的广场。

By 378 Waka was a prestigious center, boasting four main plazas, hundreds of buildings, temple mounds up to 300 feet (90 meters) tall, ceremonial palaces clad in painted stucco, and courtyards graced with carved limestone altars and monuments.

到了公元378年，瓦卡已经是地位崇高的中枢城市了。

The setting of ancient Waka, now known as El Perú, is probably much as it was when the first Maya arrived, in perhaps 1000 B.C.-a dense rain forest where scarlet macaws, toucans, and vultures nest in towering tropical hardwoods. Spider monkeys swing from branches and vines, and howler monkeys bellow in the distance.

古瓦卡的地理环境与玛雅人最初在公元前1000年左右抵达的时候差不了多少：浓密的雨林中，有绯红金刚鹦鹉，鵎鵼和兀鹰栖息在高耸的热带硬木上；蜘蛛猴摆荡于枝干与藤蔓之间，吼猴在远处啼叫。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。
