  20. Inca Architecture (1) Inca architecture is widely known for its fine masonry, which features precisely cut and shaped stones closely fitted without mortar.. Rectangular building without any internal walls and roofed with wooden beams and thatch. Two-story buildings were infrequent. Wall apertures, including doors, niches and windows, usually had a trapezoidal shape. Other kinds of decoration were scarce. Rectangular buildings were used for quite different functions in almost all Inca buildings, from humble houses to palaces and temples…

  21. Inca Architecture (2) • The most common composite form in Inca architecture was the kancha. • Testimonies of this type of architecture are: … Cuzco (Qusqu'Qosqo) consisted of large kancha. --- The Temple of the Sun (Qorikancha) --- The Inca palaces. … Ollantaytambo (near Cusco: Urubamba river). --- Temple of the Sun and The Mañacaray or Royal Hall. --- The Incahuatanaand The Baños de la Princesa (Princess’ tub baths)
