Quillarumiyoc: Moonstone of the Andes

Come along as I visit Quillarumiyoc, the "Moonstone of the Andes," an intriguing archaeological site near Cusco, Peru. The most distinctive feature is a crescent carving in the limestone rock, which may be a moon, rainbow, or some sort of sundial or other time-keeping instrument. Thrones, caves, running water, terraces, and trapezoidal niches also occupy this complex. Though scarcely visited by tourists, Quillarumiyoc was likely an important place during Inca time, and perhaps in earlier centuries or millennia.
