Q'enqo - Peru

Q'enqo, Qenko, Kenko, or Quenco is one of the most important huacas (holy places) in the region of the capital Cusco. Its name means 'zigzag'. Right in the centre of this rock formation, under the stone, there is a cave with an altar carved in the stone.

The site may have been used for sacrifices and mummification.
