Pukara of Quitor
Histories of Struggle. We will discover this national monument, declared
as such in 1982, at 3 km. northeast from San Pedro of Atacama. A
stone made construction of the pre Inca’s era that climbs
a hill as a form or fortress. It dates back to the 12th century,
result of the Aymara’s expansionism. It takes its name from
the “Ayllu of Quitor”, an agrarian pre Hispanic grouping,
whose fields are born at the foot of Pukara. From its base up to
its highest point, measures 70 m. |
