摘要：During extensive survey and trial trenching in the Cordillera Negra of the north-central Ancash highlands of Peru, we discovered an important Late Horizon (AD 1480-1532) Inka administrative site. The site, known locally as Intiaur¨¢n, is located in the Chaclancayo Valley. This highland region is ecologically categorised as a tundra/sub-Alpine (3500-5100m) zone of steep vertical gradients, small highland plains and short narrow ravines fed by fast, seasonally active, high-energy water streams.
