- An overview of the site of Uyu Uyu (foreground), which lies
on the north side of the Colca river within the community of
Yanque. Much like San Antonio (previous slide), this site has
evidence for Middle Horizon through Late Horizon and early colonial
occupations, including an Inka administrative center and early
Spanish colonial chapel. Also as in San Antonio, the population
of this village was most likely "reduced" around 1570,
but in this case, probably to the village of Yanque.
