Las «phaqchas» de Chachabamba (Parque Arqueológico Nacional de Machupicchu, Perú)

Archaeological research on the Chachabamba monument, located within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Machu Picchu, reveals its unique hydraulic system and sheds light on its role within the broader network of sites influenced by the Inca city. Through architectural innovations and their modifications, uncovered during excavations, the study provides insights into the monument's potential functions in both Chachabamba and other structures within the Historic Sanctuary-National Archaeological Park of Machu Picchu. This unique hydraulic system, unprecedented in the Inca world, offers a deeper understanding of the site's significance and its integration with the surrounding landscape.
