Sayhuite

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception

Sayhuite (Saywite) is an archaeological site 47 kilometres (29 mi) east of the city Abancay in the province Abancay in the region Apurímac in Peru. The site is regarded as a centre of religious worship focusing on water. An important feature on the site is the Sayhuite monolith, a rock with more than 200 geometric and zoomorphic figures. In the Monuments of the Inca by John Hemming, Hemming points to a colonial narrative that describes the interior of the Sayhuite temple. The temple featured larger columns draped in fabrics with gold bands the "thickness of one's hand." The temple was also under the care of the priestess Asarpay who jumped to her death in the nearby 400 metre gorge to avoid capture by Spanish forces.

Were it gets really interesting is that these interests and methodologies are not only found on this practical scale model, but are found scattered throughout the sacred valley around Cuzco on thousands of carved stones on a greater scaling.

The same elements are seen as on the model, the same regard for carving incisions and steps and porticos and channels upon the natural rock a balance between the rough natural and the worked, such that they can easily be mistaken for quarries.
