The astronomical observatory, huge stone walls and a wide variety of ceramics were discovered during excavations at the archaeological site Espiritu Pampa in South Cuzco, Peru.
Experts believe that this structure served as an astronomical observatory for the magical religious rituals of Wari.
The finds are connected with the pre-Hispanic people of Wari, which flourished around 500 BC. up to 1000 AD. in the Ayacucho region and extended over the tropical forest of Cusco in the South Andean, according to the chief archaeologist Javier Fonseca and the state centralized cultural administration of Cusco (DDCC), in charge of the research.

The stone walls found on site are part of a massive D-shaped temple, and a smaller structure, which is also a D-shaped one, was excavated in the center of the temple.
The team also found two rooms built of small stones in the temple. In the first, fragments of the teeth of some local animal were found; as well as two ceramic bottles in the Vary style, a silver breastplate and a silver crown or hat in the second.
One of the bottles has a human face with large eyes, nose and mouth. But the most remarkable feature is the crown painted over his head: a sign that it is the ruler of the people of Wari.
Archaeologists also found evidence of Inca architecture with square and rectangular forms near the temple. In one of the buildings were placed pins, silver needles and ceremonial ceramics.
