Llaqta Qulluy, Tayacaja

Llaqta Qulluy is an Incan-era archaeological site perched on a 3,960-metre-high mountain in Peru's Huancavelica Region, Tayacaja Province, Ahuaycha District[1]. The settlement, located in the community of Llaqta Pata (Llaccta Pata) near Vista Alegre, dates to between 1000 and 1500 AD, with construction intensifying from around 1400 AD during the Inca expansion[1]. Remains include traditional Incan architectural features adapted to the high-altitude Andean environment, reflecting both defensive positioning and ceremonial significance associated with mountain worship in pre-Columbian Peru[1].
