Willka Ulo

Willka Ulo rises above Chupaca on the western side of the Mantaro Valley. Its archaeological remains include a burial area with several tombs, some made with multiple chambers. In Inca times the wider Wanka country acquired new roads and buildings; one route linked Willka Urco with Arhuaturo, another ancient site beside Lake Ñahuimpuquio. The hill thus forms part of a much older inhabited landscape around Chupaca.
