Question
Trapezoidal motifs at this archaeological site are exemplified by the Temple of the Three Windows, which this site’s possible discoverer Agustín Lizárraga wrote his name on. This site’s highest point is a stone monolith named for “hitching the sun.” This site above the Urubamba River was drained by inclined agricultural terraces surrounding it. A stone temple at this site was shaped like the wings of a condor. This site was likely an estate for the emperor Pachacuti and was abandoned by 1532. In 1911, Indigenous villagers led Hiram Bingham to this site northwest of Cusco. For 10 points, name this Incan citadel in the Andes. ■END■
