Inkilltambo Megalithic archaeological site

Inkilltambo Megalithic archaeological site of ancient Peru. Inkilltambo is a religious site near Cusco in the district of San Sebastian. It might have been originally created by the pre-Inca Ayarmaca, who occupied the region between 900 to 1200. It is a ceremonial huaca built on a huge rock, in it you can find carved rocks connected by narrow passageways, rectangular enclosures, platforms, fountains, stairways and canals from pre-Hispanic times. A place where the dead were worshiped. In addition to the usual primitive buildings of the Indians, and different types of masonry, from the simplest primitive to the polygonal, there is something like the remains of very ancient ruined structures, some kind of sanctuaries and quarries, of unknown origin. And how old are they? -it's unknown! THERE IS A GREAT SIMILARITY WITH QENKO IN THE SAME AREA, A SIMILAR STONE WORKING PROCESS, AND LIKE SOFTENING OF THE STONE. According to the writings left by the first chroniclers who arrived in Cusco , Inkilltambo was developed during the government of the Inca Wiracocha between the years 1420 - 1438 AD. Later, when the Inca Pachacuteq — Wiracocha 's son inherits the political title of his father, he will give it much more importance, increasing the size of the complex to further deepen the Andean polytheistic religion. The word Inkilltambo comes from two Quechua words: Inkill means garden or flowery place and the word Tambo or Tampu means inn. Inkilltambo, Inquilltambo, Inquiltambo or Inkill Tampu (possibly from Quechua inkill terrain where plants are cultivated, especially ornamental ones, tampu inn) is an archaeological site in Peru. It is situated in the Cusco Region, Cusco Province, San Sebastián District. It was also a place where the Inca messengers used to rest while traveling around the Inca Empire. The archaeological center of Inkilltambo or Inkacárcel in Cusco was a sanctuary (Huaca in the Quechua language) during the Inca period, has been carved on an immense igneous rock – granite with a total of 5 hornacins (3 outside the immense rock and 2 carved to the al interior), at the top there are several anthropo-morphological figures in high relief and finally the whole shrine is surrounded by andens, aqueducts, drainage systems, etc. Between 2015 and 2016, the Ministry of Culture made a million-dollar investment (almost 5 million Soles) to put this archaeological complex in value through the restoration under the charge of archaeologist Marisa Quispe Cuno. During the reclamation period agricultural footpaths, irrigation canals, stone structures, retaining walls, staircases, corridors, Inca paths, etc. were restored.
