Archaeological research at the UNESCO World Heritage Site Fuerte de Samaipata, led by Albert Meyers and Isabelle Combès, reveals significant insights into the pre-Columbian landscape and its cultural significance. The study employs a combination of sketches, maps, drawings, and digital reconstructions to analyze the site's complex features, including its terraces, platforms, and astronomical alignments. Findings suggest that the fortress was not only a defensive structure but also a ceremonial center with advanced engineering techniques, reflecting sophisticated pre-Hispanic urban planning. This interdisciplinary approach provides a comprehensive understanding of Samaipata's role in ancient societies, bridging gaps between archaeology, anthropology, and digital reconstruction methods.
