Wikipedia description:
Lambayeque province is the oldest and largest of three provinces in Peru's Lambayeque Region. The province was established on February 12, 1821, by José de San Martín, originating from the former administrative entity known as the Partido of Saña or Lambayeque under the Intendancy of Trujillo. As such, it originally spanned the entire modern-day Department of Lambayeque, along with the provinces of Chepén and Pacasmayo, until the province of Chiclayo was definitively created in March 1839 (with a brief period in April 1835).
