INCALLAJTA
  An ushnu or ritual platform (left), immediately outside the kallanka's center door. The platform is in the shape of an inverted step pyramid, with the rock located in its center. A speaker standing on the rock could have been seen anywhere in the giant plaza in front of the kallanka. See the ARCHAEOLOGY OF PERFORMANCE (PERFORMANCE ARCH.) LINK to the left.
 
The Torreon of Inkallakta. Located at the western end of the site, this crenellated, six-faced structure has been said to have calendrical or astronomical significance. My research calls these beliefs into question.
