  Furthermore, 
  

   the

  covered 
  the

  an

  road 
  was

  site. 
  Similar 
  work 
  was 
  done 
  in 
  part 
  of 
  Huayna 
  Picchu. 
  

  

  SACSAHUAMAN 
  AND 
  VICINITY 
  

  

  The 
  greatest 
  amount 
  of 
  work, 
  with 
  relation 
  to 
  the 
  volume 
  of 
  exca- 
  

   vation 
  and 
  the 
  extent 
  of 
  the 
  area 
  explored, 
  was 
  done 
  at 
  Sacsahuaman 
  

   (pis. 
  73, 
  74). 
  Aside 
  from 
  the 
  numerous 
  paths 
  and 
  terraces 
  that 
  were 
  

   discovered 
  on 
  the 
  hill, 
  a 
  site 
  of 
  10 
  houses 
  or 
  habitations 
  was 
  uncovered, 
  

   excavations 
  being 
  made 
  to 
  a 
  depth 
  of 
  4 
  to 
  4.5 
  m. 
  (about 
  13 
  to 
  15 
  ft.). 
  

   These 
  constructions 
  ranged 
  in 
  size 
  of 
  area 
  covered 
  from 
  11 
  to 
  121 
  m. 
  2 
  

   One 
  of 
  the 
  habitations 
  had 
  13 
  of 
  the 
  niches 
  so 
  frequent 
  in 
  Inca 
  build- 
  

   ings. 
  The 
  principal 
  habitation 
  or 
  room 
  had 
  three 
  doors 
  of 
  access. 
  

   All 
  these 
  constructions 
  communicated 
  with 
  one 
  another, 
  and 
  they 
  

   were 
  located 
  on 
  two 
  different 
  levels. 
  

  

  The 
  three 
  great 
  fortified 
  towers 
  were 
  found 
  to 
  which 
  the 
  historian, 
  the 
  

   Inca 
  Garcilaso 
  de 
  la 
  Vega, 
  referred 
  as 
  existing 
  in 
  1560, 
  the 
  year 
  in 
  

   which 
  he 
  left 
  Cuzco 
  for 
  Spain. 
  These 
  towers, 
  which 
  had 
  the 
  names 
  

   Muyu 
  Marca, 
  Salla 
  Marca, 
  and 
  Paucar 
  Marca, 
  crowned 
  the 
  site 
  of 
  the 
  

   Fortress 
  of 
  Sacsahuaman. 
  Only

  bases 
  of 
  these 
  magnificient 
  mon-
