The stone, which sustained damage in six spots, had been carved to fit perfectly in a palace wall hundreds of years ago

On Tuesday, a Peruvian who had one glass too many caused damage to the famous 12-sided stone in Cuzco with a hammer. The 30-year-old Peruvian went on such a violent rampage that the piece of Inca heritage suffered irreparable damage.

An allegedly intoxicated man vandalized a 500-year-old archaeological artifact known as the 12-Angle Stone in Peru, authorities said Tuesday. Its perfect 12-angled border is described as symbolic of the advanced stonework of the Inca civilization.
