Summary:

Chronological account of the devotion and cult of the last 450 years to the "Christ of Luren". "At the end of the chronicle, we began the most complete restoration and conservation work that has been done to the sacred image of Luren." (HKB Translation) --Page 21. The festivities in honor of the Lord of Luren consist of a massive religious demonstration in Ica during the month of October each year. Every third Monday in October, from seven o'clock at night, when the temperature of the desert begins to drop, the massive procession of the Lord of the sands "Luren", patron saint of the city of Ica, begins. Thousands of faithful, from all over, accompany the Catholic image that travels, for more than fifteen hours, the streets of the city. The locals build arches and carpets of flowers and sing in their wake. The history of the Lord of Luren goes back to that of the Spanish conquest in Peru and it is said that its name is derived from the Quechua "hurin", which means "low", alluding to the lower part of the valley of Ica, the place where the cult of its image began in the 16th century.
