  1. A 360 degree panorama of Caballete, a Late Archaic (3,000-1,800 B.C.) site in the Fortaleza Valley, Peru. The picture was taken from within the middle of the main plaza in order to capture the U-shaped layout of the site with its monumental architecture on three sides.

  2. The Castillo de Huaricanga is an Initial Period (1,800-900 B.C.) citadel that overlooks the Fortaleza River. The Castillo is made up of a series of structures that together form a platform mound similar to the Late Archaic (3,000-1,800 B.C.) architecture at the site.

  7. This is a view of the beach in Barranca, Peru taken from atop an escarpment high above the Pacific Ocean.

  8. This GigaPan depicts a profile of the 2012 HARP excavations.

To follow curren...
