Cerro Bismarck, Ancient Ascents. This rock peak is located immediately south of Cerro Plomo, on whose top an Inca mummy was uncovered in 1954. Alejo Contreras found very close to the summit (4715 meters, 15,468 feet) a very small rock construction and inside it, nine small stones rounded by the hand of men. A piece of Inca ceramic had also been found at the pass south of Cerro Bismarck (March 1979). (Information supplied by señor Antonio Beorchia, San Juan, Argentina.)
