Incan Agriculture and Enigma Peru

Updated: Feb 5, 2020



WAS IT AN INCAN AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT?

One of the most visually stunning Inca ruins in the Sacred Valley of the Incas is an archaeological site around 50 km (31 miles) northwest of Cusco and just west of the village of Maras.

Within a larger circular shape, a series of concentric terraces that look like an ancient Greek amphitheater span across 150 m (492 ft), leading to a circular bottom.

The purpose of this is still a mystery today, but scientists have reason to believe that this area may have been part of a large-scale agricultural experiment.

For more information on how to include a visit to these terraces in your trip on a guided tour with experts who know the theories inside out, please contact one of us at 1-888-DDHRM09.
