Cusco, Peru
1100 A.D.
From
900 to 1200 A.D., before the arrival of the Incas in the 13th century, the
Killke people occupied Cusco. Carbon dating of the walled complex outside the
city, Saksaywaman, determined that the fortress was built about 1100 A.D. From
1300 on, the Inca occupied and expanded the area. Archaeologists even
discovered ruins of an ancient temple in 2008, along with a roadway and
aqueduct system.
