Inca Production in the South Central Andes. Agricultural Technology in Rodero and Coctaca, Argentina
Abstract
The northern part of Quebrada de Humahuaca includes the sites of Rodero and Coctaca and shows multiple evidences of prehispanic agricultural features belonging to different times in its cultural and social development. In this paper we discriminate agricultural areas that might belong to the Inca Period from those built earlier. In the agricultural sites of Coctaca and Rodero we define some building features recognized in the archaeological fields as characteristic for the Inca Period. Further we discuss their size, placement and links with the Inca road, other imperial features, and nearby contemporary settlements.
