1.1983年,位于秘鲁库斯科西北部的马丘比丘的印加城堡(图1)被联合国教科文组织宣布为人类文化和自然遗产。它也是一个生态保护区,因为它的生态丰富。现在的城堡风格可能是由印加人在15世纪建造的。由于它位于陡峭的山顶上,因此在殖民时期一直没有受到影响。马丘比丘在1911年7月被海勒姆·宾厄姆教授“科学发现”后为世界所知。随着时间的推移,马丘比丘城堡似乎已经受到了山体滑坡的影响。10年前,秘鲁地球物理研究所(IGP)所长访问京都大学防灾研究所,要求对该地区进行调查。1997年,R. Carreno和C. Bonnard发表了一篇论文《秘鲁马丘比丘的岩石滑坡》。1998年,卡雷诺提出了对这张幻灯片的研究,作为IGCP-425的一个子项目,并获得了批准。在1999年9月于联合国教科文组织举行的IGCP-425会议和联合国教科文组织濒危文化遗产会议上,他的报告引起了与会者的极大兴趣。
1.INTRODUCTION The Inca Citadel in Machu Picchu, at northwest of Cusco, Peru, (Fig.1) was declared a World Heritage of Humanity in terms of both cultural and natural property by UNESCO in 1983. It is also an ecological sanctuary because of its ecological richness. The present style of citadel was probably built by the Incas in the 15th century. It remained untouched through the colonial period because of its isolated location on the top of a steep mountain. Machu Picchu became known to the world after its "scientific discovery" by Prof. Hiram Bingham in July 1911. As time passed, it seemed that Machu Picchu citadel possibly has been affected by landslides. Ten years ago, the director of the Geophysical Institute of Peru (Instituto Geofisico del Peru = IGP) visited the Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University and requested an investigation of the area. And in 1997, R. Carreno and C. Bonnard published a paper "Rock slide at Machu Picchu, Peru." Carreno proposed a study of this slide as a sub-project of IGCP-425 in 1998, and it was approved. During the IGCP-425 meeting and UNESCO Conference on Cultural Heritage at Risk at UNESCO in September 1999, his report on the subproject attracted considerable interest from participants.
