Frequently great treasures were buried In the tombs of the Inca nobles, and although many of them were rifled later on, there must still be some left. The Peruvians are also said to have secreted a great mass of valuables away from the rapacity of their Spanish masters, and In some Instances threw them. Into the rivers and lakes. Desert Meat and Cold Blankets are frequently necessary at nig?.t In a desert. There Is a great range of temperature In desert regions. In the Sahara there is sometimes as much as 40 degrees between day and night.
