You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.239.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 07:38, 2 November 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Lambayeque''' ([[Mochica language|Mochica]]: ''Ñampaxllæc'') is a city on the coast of northern [[Peru]] and capital of the homonymous district and province in the [[department of Lambayeque]]. It is located 4.7 km from the city of [[Chiclayo]] and 13 km from the [[Pacific Ocean]]. It is an important cultural and educational center of the department as it houses some of the most important museums in the country, such as the [[Royal Tombs of Sipán Museum|Royal Tombs Museum]] and the [[Brüning Museum]]. It was founded in 1553 under the name of '''San Pedro de Lambayeque''' by order of the Viceroy Conde de Nieva.

== History ==
In January 2022, two people were killed in Lambayeque, where the [[2022 Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha'apai eruption and tsunami|tsunami caused by the eruption of Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha'apai]] measured 2 metres (6 ft 7 in).<ref>((Cite web|date=2022-01-15|title=Reportan dos muertes y daños por tsunami en Perú: país no emitió alerta|url=https://www.biobiochile.cl/noticias/internacional/america-latina/2022/01/15/reportan-dos-muertes-y-danos-por-tsunami-en-peru-pais-no-emitio-alerta.shtml|access-date=2022-01-21|website=BioBioChile - La Red de Prensa Más Grande de Chile|language=es))</ref>

==Geography==
((Unreferenced section|date=January 2023))
The vast plains of [[Túcume]] are part of the Lambayeque Valley, the largest valley of the north coast of Peru. The Lambayeque Valley is the site of natural and man-made waterways and is also a region of about 250 decaying and heavily eroded mud-brick pyramids.

===Climate===
Lambayeque has a [[hot desert climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]]: ''BWh'')<ref>((Cite journal |date=23 October 2023 |title=Table 1 Overview of the Köppen-Geiger climate classes including the defining criteria. |url=https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-023-02549-6/tables/1 |journal=Nature: Scientific Data |language=en))</ref> characterized by warm temperatures throughout the year and extremely low precipitation.

December through May marks the hotter part of the year. February, the hottest month, averages daily highs of ((convert|29.5|C)) and daily lows of ((convert|21.6|C)).<ref name="WMONormals"/>

June to November marks the cooler half of the year, with mild temperatures and negligible rainfall. August, the coolest month, averages daily highs of ((convert|22.8|C)) and daily lows of ((convert|15.9|C)).<ref name="WMONormals"/>

==Archaeology==
((Unreferenced section|date=January 2023))
The [[Brüning Museum]], established in the early 20th century, contains hundreds of gold and silver pieces, as well as textiles and ceramics, from the [[Vicus (Peru)|Vicus]], [[Moche (culture)|Moche]], [[Chimú]], Lambeyeque and [[Inca]] cultures. The ''[[Tumba Real]]'' ([[Royal Tombs of Sipán Museum]]), established in 2002, contains artefacts from the Moche tombs of the [[Lord of Sipan]], of which fourteen have been excavated.

Dating from around 2000 BCE, the [[Ventarron]] temple is one of the oldest found in the [[Americas]], as reported by the Peruvian archeologist [[Walter Alva]].

==Culture==
((Unreferenced section|date=January 2023))
Lambayeque is also the home of [[King Kong milk candy]], a popular dessert with filling made of fresh milk, pineapple sweets and sometimes peanut. 

The region is also known for ''[[alfajor]]es''.
