WHOSE TREASURE?
- LETTERS: 'League Of Gentlemen' (Guardian, Roger Walker) "I sympathise with the Spanish government over the removal by Odyssey of a treasure of gold coins from a suspected Spanish vessel sunk in 1804. However, since the gold from which these coins were cast was probably plundered by the Spanish years earlier from the Aztecs and the Incas, I would suggest that this treasure should be returned to its rightful owners in Peru, Mexico and other countries raided by the conquistadors."
- 'Destination Of The Week' (The Independent, Simon Calder) " Peru is the most popular destination for UK holidaymakers, but there is still no sign of direct flights returning to Lima. In the meantime the well-regarded airline, Lan, has introduced three flights a week to the Peruvian capital from Madrid, with connections from Heathrow on Oneworld partners British Airways and Iberia. David Gilmour of South American Experience (0845 277 3366; www.southamericanexperience.co.uk) says 'Lan intends to increase this to six times a week from March 2008'."
