title: Sacsayhuaman in Early Modernity: the Invention of New Ancient Edifices ? verso
og:description: Amidst the hills encircling Cuzco, a monument of colossal magnitude emerges, Sacsayhuaman. From its heights, the modern city can be observed. Cuzco was built upon the remnants of the pre-Columbian Inca main urban center; the modern city melds ancient foundations with transatlantic models. Yet, the edifice of Sacsayhuaman stands apart, and its presence appears untouched by the currents of modernization. Silently fading, abandoned, and depleted. Over time, it has converted from a living fortress into an Inca ruin, a relic of the past. Now an archaeological site, it stands side by side with Machu Picchu, beckoning global tourism to witness the timeless splendor of the Inca civilization.
