Fertility Temple

The Inca Uyo archaeological site, a rectangular construction with stone walls. At the time of the arrival of the Spaniards it was partially buried, under construction, the earth filling allowed access to the top of the wall of the stones that were carved, a few meters from the construction is a significant group of stones in its carving phase. Recently, fungus-shaped monoliths, which some interpret as phalluses, have been brought inside the building. It is actually a ceremonial temple dating back to pre-Hispanic times.

The Waru Waru (or lorries) in Acora, Puno, are a pre-Hispanic agricultural system of elevated fields designed to grow in the flooded pampas of the Altiplano, more than 3,800 m above sea level. the technique is to excavate canals and use the extracted soil to create elevated round rectangular platforms (farm beds). Its effectiveness is based on: Thermoregulation: Water from canals absorbs solar heat during the day and releases it at night, creating a microclimate that protects crops from extreme frost (which can drop to -20 °C). Water management : The canals act as reservoirs during droughts and as drainage during times of flooding, maintaining the humidity necessary for the plant. Fertility : The mud accumulated at the bottom of the canals is extracted periodically to fertilize the growing platforms naturally. , this technology to produce "superfoods" such as native potato, quinoa and cañihua without the need for agrochemicals.
