Next I want to take a super quick look at Kuelap: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ku%C3%A9lap

 

“Kuélap or Cuélap is a walled settlement located in the mountains near the towns of María and Tingo, in the southern part of the region of Amazonas, Peru. It was built by the Chachapoyas culture in the 6th century AD on a ridge overlooking the Utcubamba Valley.

 

Location

 

Kuélap is located on a limestone ridge on top of a mountain at an elevation of 3000 metres, on the left bank of the Utcubamba River. It belongs to the district of Tingo, Luya Province, Amazonas. The area is covered with cloud forests, with a variety of trees, orchids and epiphytes.[1] The protected zone covers an area of 218.33 ha (2.18 km2) and a buffer zone of 609.67 ha (6.10 km2), both protecting about 12 archaeological sites and the main site of Kuélap.

 

Architecture

 

Kuélap is a walled settlement built in a north-south orientation, 584 m long and 110 m in its widest part, making up an area of ca. 6 hectares. The walls are 10 to 20 m high with masonry of limestone blocks finely worked (some blocks may weigh 3 tons).

 

The city has 3 entrances, 2 to the east and the other one to the west. The main entrance has a trapezoid shape and may have had a corbel arch; it becomes narrower until it allows the passage of one person.

 

There are over 550 structures in the site, circular except for 5 of them (which are quadrilaterals); only the foundations or walls of these structures remain, some of them up to 2 meters high and 50 cm thick. Some walls have friezes of rhomboid and zig-zag shapes, which are protected from the rain by cornices. A few of the structures have been restored

 

On the southwestern part of the settlement, there is a 5.5 meters high structure known as El Tintero (Spanish for inkwell) or Templo Mayor (Spanish for main temple) which has the shape of an inverted cone; ceremonial archaeological remains have been found there and it is hypothesized that the building may have been used as a solar observatory.

 

In the northwestern part, there is a sector known as Pueblo Alto (Spanish for high town), with a wall of 11.5 meters high, which is accessed by two narrow entrances. North of Pueblo Alto, a tower-like structure named Torreón (Spanish for tower) rises up to 7 meters and may have been used for defensive purposes as stone weapons have been found there.”

“At Kuélap, many stones have reliefs with anthropomorphic, zoomorphic and geometric designs. In addition, numerous burials have been found both in the walls and inside the circular structures.

 

There are also water canals made of stone, which are believed to have supplied water to the settlement from a spring at the top of the mountain.

 

History

 

Early history

 

Human occupation at the site starts in the 5th century AD, but the majority of structures were built between 900 and 1100 AD. The city may have had some 3000 inhabitants, but was abandoned in 1570 due to the Spanish Conquest. As a consequence the city deteriorated and was covered by tree roots.

 

Modern history

 

Kuélap was accidentally rediscovered in 1843, by Juan Crisóstomo Nieto, a judge from the city of Chachapoyas. Then, in 1870, Antonio Raimondi made a survey of the site.

 

Explorer Charles Wiener visited the site in 1881. In 1939, French general Louis Langlois studied the site and wrote a detailed description of the main buildings. Kuélap was also studied by archaeologists Ernst Middendorf (1887); Adolf Bandelier (1940); spouses Henry and Paule Reichlen (1948); and Arturo Ruíz (1972). […]”

 

>> This site is very important and it’s obvious it has not been fully excavated as in it has not YET fully revealed its secrets. Also anons, when you see “orientation” (like the gates) on a site, it also means axiality and astronomy; the later confirmed by the existence of the observatory. But all the geometrical shapes also point that this site is DESIGNED, I mean things are not randonly built there and I will not be surprised at all if we find out there is a correlation or a match with a constellation; highest possibilities are the Orion, Pleiadess constellations, not to forget Sirius…. If you cannot see a constellation from the southern hemisphere and it is present, it’s mentioned, then, how did they know about it in this culture? Think anons, think = it must have been an old, ancient, passed on knowledge. When anons look closely, this site gives you the impression you are looking at a medieval fortress in Europe doesn’t it? This place is hard to access due to its geographical location and its position, also it’s obvious it’s built for defense = from the fortification walls to the narrow entrance and steep staircase etc, everything reminds me of the fortresses in Europe built during the Middle-Ages. Anons, shouldn’t forget to take into consideration the architectural and military strategical knowledge of this site.
