Gochacalla

Gochacalla is a lake and archaeological site in the high country near Panao and Chaglla, east of Huánuco. It lies among the ridges and valleys of the eastern Peruvian Andes, where mountain streams descend towards the warmer eastern slopes. The remains beside the lake testify to the long occupation of this region, whose communities lived between the high grasslands and the forested lands farther down the valleys.
