According to the legend, the pre-Columbian

“Nazca" and "Sipán", among others, were the
creators of this tasty dish. In the tomb of the Lord of

of sour taste and tomb. Already at this time used the
Quechua word "siwichi", which means fish raw or
tender.
Lopez de Jerez (1534) a Spanish who accompanied
Pizarro, wrote in his Chronicle, the true story of the

fish... these foods seasoned with salt and "Chili",

corn and some aromatic herbs'.
