Cheqollo

Cheqollo (from Quechua for 'nightingale') is a pre-Hispanic archaeological site in Peru's Cusco Region, located in San Jeronimo District north of the town of San Jeronimo [1] [2]. The site was declared National Cultural Heritage (Patrimonio Cultural) by Resolucion Directorial Nacional No. 514/2003 [1] [3]. It lies within the broader landscape of Cusco-area archaeological sites that reflect the region's deep Inca and pre-Inca heritage [1] [4] [5].
