Ischigualasto Provincial Park

}}
Ischigualasto Provincial Park ((スペイン語:Parque Provincial Ischigualasto)), also called ''Valle de la Luna'' ("Valley of the Moon" or "Moon Valley"), due to its otherworldly appearance, is a provincial protected area in the north-east of San Juan Province, north-western Argentina, limiting to the north with the Talampaya National Park, in La Rioja Province. Both areas belong to the same geological formation, the ''Ischigualasto Formation'' (sometimes ''Ischigualasto-Talampaya Formation'')
Established on 3 November 1971,〔 the park has an area of
In 2000 UNESCO included Ischigualasto and Talampaya National Park among its World Heritage Sites.〔
==History==
The most accepted hypothesis gives the name "Ischigualasto" a Quechua origin, meaning "place where the moon sets", although some scholars have proposed Diaguita or Huarpe roots.
The first paleontological description of Ischigualasto dates from 1930. In 1941 the area was studied in more detail, which led to the discovery of 70 species of fossil plants. The region received for the first time the name ''Valle de la Luna'' in 1943, in a publication edited by the Automobil Club Argentino.
That year, Dr. Ángel Cabrera of University of La Plata described the traversodontid ''Exaeretodon''—the first cynodont found in Ischigualasto—after samples sent by a geologist who was doing prospecting for coal on behalf of an Argentine mining company.
Academic work and geological prospecting proceeded slowly until 1958, when Dr. Alfred Sherwood Romer, a Harvard University expert in ancient mammals, discovered several rich fossil beds which he described as "extraordinary".
