I did a big, long 5-day trek around Chachapoya, this one
Zabajaba jungle-style (that is to say, it was hot, confusing, machetes were needed, and there were large birds, butterflies...no baboons with blue butts though), and ended up at this great mountaintop site, which is supposed to be the crown jewel of Amazonas´s archaeology.
Traditional Chachapoya circular houses. Pointy tops.
Overgrown walls. Gruesomely, people are buried inside.
Kuelap entrance.
(These photos aren´t mine, by the way. The digital camera was lost/stolen, so I'm working with a mechanical one now. These are stolen from the internet.)
