Quriwayrachina (also Quri Wayrachina) is an archaeological site with agricultural terraces in Peru's Cusco Region, Anta Province[1]. Dating to the Early Horizon and Middle Horizon periods (approximately 1-500 AD), the terraced agricultural landscape lies about 4 km (2.5 mi) north of the terraces of Zurite[1]. The site exemplifies pre-Inca and Inca agricultural engineering techniques adapted to the high-altitude Andean environment.
