Built over 2,300 years ago, the site includes a temple, a plaza, and thirteen towers constructed from cut stone. The complex lies in the coastal desert of Peru near the Casma-Sechín river basin. Recent excavations indicated that Chankillo was occupied for a relatively short period of time between the mid-fourth century BC and the early first century AD but was subsequently abandoned, most likely due to violent conflict. In 2007, Chankillo was identified as an early astronomical observatory. Chankillo is unique among ancient observatory sites because of its multiple observation points;similar sites around the world contain only one point of astronomical alignment, which does not provide the measurements needed to track the passage of time over a full year. The thirteen towers of Chankillo, situated between two observation platforms, span the entire annual rising and setting arc of the sun, which gradually shifts along the horizon over the course of a year. The inhabitants of Chankillo would have been able to determine the date with an accuracy of two to three days by watching the sunrise or sunset from the correct observation platform. Using the site as an observatory would have allowed the inhabitants to regulate the occurrence of seasonal events, including planting and harvest times, as well as religious festivals.The archaeological evidence at Chankillo suggests that sun worship existed in the Andes around two millennia before the well-known sun cult of the Inca Empire. -https: //www.wmf.org/project/chankillo Chankillo:
