Sacsayhuaman (1)


Source: WTL photo taken from the edge of the site of Sacsayhuaman.
Comments: This is a view of the modern city of Cuzco (for the city itself and some description of it, see: => Cuzco) photographed from the edge of the archeological site of Sacsayhuaman. Cuzco's central plaza is seen in the lower center of this photo just behind the trees at the foot of the hill.
Humanities question: What do you see in this photo that gives you and idea that there is a strong Spanish influence in this Latin American city? What would the Incan version of this urban space have looked like just before the Spanish conquest of it took place?
