Abstract:
This paper presents a cognitive multi-agents architecture called Intelligent Cognitive Agents (InCA) that was elaborated for the design of Intelligent Adaptive Learning Systems. The InCA architecture relies on a personal agent that is aware of the user's characteristics, and that coordinates the intervention of a set of expert cognitive agents (such as story telling agents, assessment agents, stimulation agents or help agents). This InCA architecture has been applied for the design of K"InCA, an e-learning system aimed at helping people to learn and adopt knowledge-sharing management practices.

Abstract:
At Tiahuanaco, on the southern rim of Lake Titicaca, Bolivia, visitors encounter enormous stone slabs and carved building blocks dressed with astonishing skill. The stones are the visible remains of a culture that flourished there about a thousand years ago. Some six hundred kilometers to the northwest, in Cuzco (Peru), one finds the different yet equally remarkable masonry of the Incas, who dominated the Andean world from the middle of the fifteenth century to the Spanish conquest in 1532. Did the Inca stonemasons learn their skills from their predecessors at Tiahuanaco? A comparative study of Inca and Tiahuanaco construction techniques reveals fundamental differences between the architecture of the two cultures. In this article, we compare masonry bonds, design details, stone-cutting techniques, and the methods of fitting, laying, and handling of stones used by both cultures. The results of this comparison suggest that the ingenuity of Inca masonry originated with the Incas, and not with their predecessors.

Abstract:
Vernacular architecture is the legacy of cultures over time. Undoubtedly, it is part of the identity of a community. Especially when it is the legacy of an empire as great as the Inca empire. Due to the importance of this empire, the main objective of this research was to determine the legacy of the Inca Empire through vernacular architecture in the city of Ollantaytambo, Cusco, Peru. Likewise, the research was basic, descriptive, non- experimental and cross-sectional. The population consisted of 2 714 dwellings and the sample consisted of 338 dwellings. Observation and bibliographic review techniques were used for data collection. The results indicated that most people live in dwellings with only one or two rooms. The shape of the houses is regular. The interior of the houses is mostly made of wood. The exterior walls are made of stone and adobe. The roof is made of tiles with "par" and "nudiños" shears, and also uses "enchaclado de carrizo" and "torta de barro". Undoubtedly, the houses have inherited the characteristics of the architecture of the Inca empire. Therefore, it was concluded that the houses in the city of Ollantaytambo are a clear example of the legacy of the Inca empire through vernacular architecture.

In this paper, we present results of astronomical and landscape analysis at four Inca sites located in the Nevados de Cachi area, North Calchaquí Valley, Salta Province, Argentina. Selection criteria took into consideration the existence of certain traits of paramount importance amongst Inca architecture, such as ushnu platforms, gnomons and a particularly interesting petroglyph located in a high-altitude sanctuary. Results show that the location and spatial layout of certain Inca settlements, as well as certain structures within, were designed and located based on astronomical observation patterns centred on solstices, equinoxes and lunar standstills.

Abstract:
<p class="Affiliation">The aim of a metrological analysis of the Machu Picchu site is to verify the hypothesis on the functioning of the imperial system of length measurement which was used by the Incas during measurement and construction processes. Data for metrological analyses were obtained from 3D laser scanning as 3D point cloud from where desired length measurements were collected. As far as the research method is concerned, a statistical model of a cosine quantogram was used to find a unit of design from a data set. The method has successfully been introduced during the analysis of architectural sites of the Mediterranean culture but never has been applied in regard to pre-Columbian archaeology. Statistical approach in this study will reveal new information about Inca urban planning based on the elements of architecture design.</p>

Sondor, An Inca Settlement at Pacucha, AndahuaylasIn this paper, the authors present recent data obtained from excavations at the Sondor archaeological complex, one of the principal Inca archaeological monuments located on the Inca road between Cuzco and the site of Vilcashuaman (Department of Apurimac). Studies in Sondor focused on the architectonic organization of the site and burial patterns. These studies led to the formulation of a hypothesis about ritual practices and ceremonies related to the capacocha (Inca state sacrifices). Investigations at Sondor focused on the promotion of research and site conservation for cultural and touristic purposes.
En este trabajo se presentan datos recientes obtenidos en trabajos efectuados en el sitio de Sondor, uno de los principales monumentos arqueológicos del periodo inca, ubicado en la ruta del camino inca entre Cuzco y Vilcashuamán, en el departamento de Apurímac. Se hicieron estudios sobre la distribución arquitectónica y al patrón de enterramiento, que condujeron a plantear hipótesis sobre las prácticas rituales y ceremonias relacionadas con la capacocha. Esto se llevó a cabo en el marco de trabajos orientados a promover la investigación y puesta en valor del sitio con fines culturales y turísticos.

Abstract:
"Neo-Inca" or Colonial? The Death of Inca Architecture and other ParadigmsMost indigenous architectural traditions are believed to have ended abruptly with the European invasion of the Americas. In the Andes, scholars have argued that Inca architecture ceased soon after the arrival of the Spaniards and was rapidly replaced with European models. In this paper, I argue that the perceived death of Inca architecture is a false paradigm based on a variety of factors, such as a split in scholarly disciplines, a lack of scholarship on indigenous post contact architecture, and —most importantly— naming practices that have carried mistaken assumptions about the past. Focusing on Chinchero, the private estate of Thupa ‘Inka, as a case study, this paper demonstrates that Inca architecture continued well after the Spanish invasion.
Por lo general, se cree que las tradiciones arquitectónicas indígenas finalizaron bruscamente con la invasión europea de las Américas. En los Andes, los especialistas piensan que la arquitectura inca cesó poco después de la llegada de los españoles y fue reemplazada de manera rápida por modelos europeos. En el presente artículo, la autora plantea que la percepción de la "muerte" de la arquitectura inca es un paradigma falso, cuyo origen se debe a varios factores, tal como la separación en disciplinas académicas, la ausencia de estudios calificados sobre arquitectura indígena posterior a la Conquista, y, sobre todo, las denominaciones modernas, que implican erróneas aseveraciones acerca del pasado. Los trabajos de investigación se concentran en Chinchero, la propiedad privada de Thupa ‘Inka, como un caso en el que se demuestra que la arquitectura inca siguió en existencia después de la invasión española.

Abstract:
Au lendemain de la chute de l'empire Inca (1532) et de la fulgurante conquête espagnole du Pérou, d'innombrables conséquences devaient marquer le terrible " choc frontal " de deux civilisations. La vision par les principaux chroniqueurs du seizième et de la première moitié du dix-septième siècle d'une architecture imposante suscita un vaste corpus de témoignages. Brèves, de caractère évènementiel ou panégyriques de la "conquista", les premières relations offrent peu d'observations détaillées des constructions incaïques. Les interrogations majeures soulevées par ceux-ci, concernent : les formes, les matériaux, les techniques utilisées par les incas, ainsi que - problèmes complexes - les fonctions et le symbolisme de ces édifices. La réflexion sur ces différentes questions doit s'appuyer sur cet ensemble de témoignages mais être surtout confrontée au nombreux enseignement des récentes recherches archéologiques
Day after the downfall of Inca Empire and spectacular conquest of Peru by the Spanish, there should have been countless consequences resulting from this very frontal clash between two civilizations. The perception of the principal historians of sixteenth and the first half of seventeenth centuries, about the imposing architecture of Inca provoked a vast corpus of testimonies. The first perception characterized, brief, with factual features and effected panegyrics of the conquest offer us a small amount of detailed remarks upon the Inca constructions. The major interrogations raised by them concern : forms, materials and the technics utilized by Inca, as well as complicated problems like function, symbolism of these structures. It seems that reflection upon these various questions would rely on the beforehand testimonies, but, of course, they should be associated with numerous archeological knowledge of present time

Abstract:
The recurrence in the use of enclosed courtyards and porches where people sat in the shade, back against the wall, and with platforms accessible only by ramps or stairs, are unique characteristics found in late period Andean structures. This particularity as well as some another features make difficult to understand the functions and uses of monumental architecture in the ancient Central Andes. The recent discussion about these architectural features found in prehispanic Andean palaces proves the common disagreements even with substantial archaeological evidence where seems not easy to distinct between governors main residences and temples. The investigations carried out at Pueblo Viejo-Pucará, "Lomas de Lurín" Archaeological Project-Field School, Convenio Cementos Lima S.A.-Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, under the direction of Krzysztof Makowski from 1999 to present, have provided valuable information to this topic. The excavations covers more than 6000 square meters of architectonic evidence in four of its five sections, including two residential structures of the elite, with palace features, and one temple located at the top of a mountain. Comparing the hypothetical households of two curacas, two residential elite homes and other residential units excavated in Pueblo Viejo-Pucara, show the common use of a central patio with wide open kitchens and areas of entertainment, such as structures next to the patio and porches facing it; which differentiate the elite ones from the commoners’ homes. The patio is the central area of public activity where offers were made during banquets and the food was served in a festive manner, including camelid and cervid meats, chicha served in fine ceramic ware. The main palace is differentiated from the rest of the residences, based on the presence of an ushnu with funerary chambers and two plazas that are related with the cult of two huancas and at least one rocky outcrop seen as a sacred huaca, with offerings of Spondylus princeps, gold and silver.
La recurrencia de patios cercados (canchas), "audiencias" y pórticos, lugares destinados para albergar largas filas de personas sentadas de manera cómoda a la sombra de techo y de espaldas a una pared, así como la presencia de plataformas accesibles por medio de rampas o escaleras cuentan entre los rasgos que definen el carácter peculiar de la arquitectura de los periodos tardíos en los Andes, un aspecto difícil de interpretar desde el punto de vista de la función. Recientes discusiones sobre las características de la arquitectura palaciega en los Andes prehispánicos han puesto en evidencia los problemas con los que tropiezan los intentos de hacer el deslinde formal y funcional entre la residencia principal del gobernante y el templo a partir de las evidencias arqueológicas. Las investigaciones realizadas en Pueblo Viejo-Pucará desde 1999 hasta el presente en el marco del Proyecto Arqueológico-Taller de Campo "Lomas de Lurín", Convenio Cementos Lima S.A.-Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, bajo la dirección de Krzysztof Makowski, aportan datos valiosos a la discusión del tema dado que han abarcado más de 6000 metros cuadrados de superficie excavada en cuatro de los cinco sectores del sitio, incluidas dos estructuras residenciales de elite de carácter palaciego y un templo que corona una elevación, denominado "Templo de la Cima". La comparación entre las hipotéticas moradas de dos curacas, dos residencias de elite y las demás unidades residenciales excavadas en Pueblo Viejo-Pucará deja en claro que la presencia del patio central con amplias cocinas y áreas de agasajo en forma de recintos anexos y pórticos constituye la principal diferencia entre la residencia de elite y la casa común. El patio es el área central de la vida pública, donde, de manera frecuente, se ofrecen banquetes con comida de carácter festivo, rica en la preciada carne de camélidos y de cérvidos, así como en chicha, la que se sirve en vasijas finas ejecutadas en estilos de prestigio. El palacio principal difiere de las demás residencias por la presencia de un ushnu con cámaras funerarias adosadas, dos plazas relacionadas con el culto de dos huancas y de, por lo menos, un afloramiento rocoso con ofrendas de conchas Spondylus princeps, oro y plata, el que habría sido venerado como huaca.

Abstract:
The Power of the State and the Material Culture in KollasuyuIdeology is a central element of cultural systems. It is also a source of social power particularly as it relates to the capacity of the state to control and manage the social work of a group of people to obtain benefits. This study analyzes the Inka manipulation of power in the attempt to achieve domination and control of native populations in the Calchaqui and Yocavil valleys of Northwest Argentina (NOA), between AD 1000-AD 1536. These processes are viewed through the study of the coercive and symbolic role of architecture and the production and use of symbolic objects, specially ceramics. The contest between native societies from NOA and the Inka State is understood as a key process in the structuration of social relationships and the manipulation of power in this region.
La ideología es un elemento central del sistema cultural y es una fuente de poder social, si se entiende esto último como la capacidad para controlar y manejar el trabajo de un grupo de personas para obtener beneficios. Su materialización se convierte en fuentes efectivas de poder. En el presente trabajo se analizará la manipulación del poder por parte del imperio inka para alcanzar la dominación y control de las poblaciones nativas del noroeste de Argentina entre 1000 y 1536 d.C. a partir del rol, simbólico y coercitivo, de la arquitectura y de la producción y uso de objetos simbólicos —especialmente de la cerámica— como formas de control y dominio por parte del Estado inka en los valles Calchaquí, Yocavil y áreas relacionadas. En otras palabras, se interpretarán las instituciones en términos de arquitectura y cultura material. La espacialidad planteada por las sociedades locales del Noroeste Argentino y el Estado inka es entendida como una dimensión clave en la estructuración de relaciones sociales y la manipulación del poder.

Ceremonial Architecture at Cerro Azul: The Huarco Polity and Inca OccupationThis article is an architectonic study of the archeological site of Cerro Azul, which was constructed and occupied by the Kingdom de Huarco from approx. 1100-1470 A.D. and reoccupied by the administration of the Inca empire. The unique architecture of the site was adapted to its seaside setting and its geographical surroundings. The part of the building analyzed here —Structure I— provides an example for allowing us to understand the cosmological vision, including its ritual functions, on the basis of which this site was laid out.
El presente artículo está basado en un estudio arquitectónico del sitio arqueológico de Cerro Azul, edificado por la sociedad del señorío de Huarco (1100-1470 d.C.) y reocupado por la administración inca. La organización espacial está definida por su cercana relación con el mar y por los accidentes geográficos que lo circundan, lo que le otorga un carácter especial al paisaje en el que la arquitectura se inserta. El edificio analizado, la Estructura I, da pautas para comprender una cosmovisión donde los espacios debieron diseñarse en función de eventos rituales consistentes.

Abstract:
Palaces and Ushnus: Rímac Valley’s Curacas and Inca Government in the Central CoastThe Inca presence in the middle low valley of the Rimac basin, related to architecture, is revealed in two types of evidence: a) the first one corresponds to the incorporation of constructive features and decorative criteria of Cuzco style to the elite residences of the area (e.g. palaces), and b) the second evidence is related to the subtle disposition of constructions that consider similar locations and characteristics, although on reduced scale, of those typical buildings denominated "Inca Administrative Centers" which have the Plaza as organizing axis of the space.In this context, the validity and use of palaces of the coastal tradition during the Late Horizon can be interpreted as a sample of the local institutions abilities to maintain traditional modalities in the exercise of power. As well, the buildings that imitate Inca architectonic layouts with more complex pretensions represent a challenge for the interpretations on this phenomenon. Were these buildings the locus of the Inca state, official facilities in the zone? Did imperial civil employees resided and made bureaucratic tasks in these settlements, their facilities were used to store diverse goods of the region, among other activities of economic interest for the Tahuantinsuyo?Characterize the operation of both types of constructions (e.g., palaces and Inca inspiration locations), is fundamental in order to explain the political framework on which the exercise of power in the zone of study was based and its repercussion on local as well as imperial scale. Is the contemporaneity of these constructions evidence of particular and excluding identities as effect of the Inca power installation in the zone? Did they represent the particular Inca strategy domination in the area due to considerations of the special conditions of political, social and economic organization of the coast? In this work, these possibilities are explored, on the basis of the analysis of both the architectonic pattern and settlement pattern in this section of Rimac river basin during the Late Intermediate Period and the Late Horizon.
El testimonio de la presencia inca en el valle medio bajo del Rímac, en lo que a arquitectura se refiere, se manifiesta de dos maneras: a) la incorporación de criterios de edificación y ornamentación en la construcción de las residencias de elite de la zona (v.g., palacios), y b) la sutil disposición de construcciones que tienen en cuenta emplazamientos y características semejantes, aunque a escala reducida, a las de aquellos edificios típicos de los denominados centros administrativos incas y que tienen a la plaza como eje organizador del espacio.La vigencia de los palacios durante el Horizonte Tardío es una muestra de la habilidad de las instituciones locales por mantener modalidades tradicionales en el ejercicio del poder. A su vez, la construcción de edificios, que imitan arreglos arquitectónicos incas de pretensiones más complejas, representa un reto para las interpretaciones sobre este fenómeno. ¿Son instalaciones oficiales de la organización imperial inca en la zona? ¿En ellas residían y realizaban labores burocráticas funcionarios imperiales, laboraban contingentes humanos por turnos o se almacenaban diversos bienes de la región, entre otras actividades de interés para el Tahuantinsuyo?Es evidente el funcionamiento simultáneo, en un mismo asentamiento, de ambas tradiciones arquitectónicas, íntimamente relacionadas al ejercicio del poder tanto a escala local como imperial. ¿Es este hecho una evidencia de identidades particulares y excluyentes como efecto de la instalación del poder inca en la zona o representa una estrategia de adaptación particular de las elites locales en consideración de las especiales condiciones políticas, sociales y económicas de la costa central? Estas posibilidades son exploradas en este trabajo sobre la base de un análisis de patrones arquitectónicos y de asentamiento en este tramo de la cuenca del Rímac.

Abstract:
The culture history of the valley of Cuzco prior to the rise of the Incas is being revealed by twelve years of fieldwork at the site of Chokepukio. Located in the Lucre Basin at the eastern end of the valley, Chokepukio contains the only surviving monumental architecture of Late Intermediate Period Cuzco. Excavations in a series of large niched structures on the site reveals that they functioned as feasting halls. Quantities of polychrome ceramic serving and feasting vessels and high quality sumptuary goods reveal that elite individuals were involved in the rituals and feasts carried out there. The presence of elaborate water works and human burials in the halls seems to suggest that they functioned as lineage halls for feasting ancestors. The plan of the architecture and overall structure of the site together with radiocarbon dating suggests that a complex polity was centered at Chokepukio for three to four centuries between the fall of the Wari Empire and the rise of the Incas. This polity provided an essential continuity of statecraft and preserved infrastructure. The Incas’ meteoric rise was surely due to their genesis in a more politically complex environment than previously believed.
El proceso de la historia cultural del valle del Cuzco antes del ascenso de los incas está saliendo a la luz gracias a 12 años de trabajo de campo en el sitio de Chokepukio. Ubicado en la cuenca de Lucre, en el extremo este del valle, Chokepukio contiene la única arquitectura monumental superviviente del Periodo Intermedio Tardío en el Cuzco. Las excavaciones en una serie de grandes estructuras con nichos revelan que estas funcionaron como galpones destinados para rituales y fiestas. La presencia de cantidades de vasijas polícromas de servicio y ceremoniales, así como de bienes suntuarios de alta calidad demuestran que individuos de elite se vieron involucrados en diversos actos rituales y festines realizados en ese lugar. De la misma manera, la presencia de obras hidráulicas elaboradas y entierros humanos en los muros parecen sugerir que estos tuvieron la función de edificios propios de linajes para rendir culto a sus ancestros. El plano de planta de la arquitectura y la estructura general, así como los fechados radiocarbónicos aluden a que una entidad política compleja tuvo su sede en Chokepukio durante tres o cuatro siglos entre la caída del imperio wari y el ascenso de los incas. Esta entidad política proporciona un caso de continuidad esencial en el manejo administrativo y una infraestructura preservada. El ascenso meteórico de los incas se debió, con seguridad, a que su génesis se dio en un ambiente políticamente más complejo de lo que se había creído antes.

Abstract:
AbstractThe aim of this text has been the evaluation of the hypotheses, formulated by various authors, on the possible astronomical function of seven structures and architectural ensembles located in the Llaqta of Machu Picchu and its immediate vicinity: the Temple of the Sun, the Room of the Mortars, the cave of Intimachay, the Temple of Condor, the Intihuatana, the Mirador de Inkaraqay, the River Intihuatana as well as the site of Llactapata. Apart from the Room of the Mortars, whose astronomical function was revealed to be dubious, the remaining six ensembles present well-documented evidence of astronomical alignments, with a marked preference for orientations towards sunrise on the June Solstice, and the demarcation of a fixed number of days around this phenomenon. Two structures, namely Intimachay and the Mirador de Inkaraqay, meet instrument requirements for precision observations, but of different types. The latter structure, provided with two observation tubes, a unique case in Inca architecture, seems to have been designed for observations of the Pleiades and Venus at its maximum elongation, in the frame of a multiannual cycle. Intimachay, on the other hand, was used for observations of the cycles of the Sun and the Moon.

Abstract:
The investigations carried out by the Pachacamac Valley Archaeological Program and Field-School made clear that the current appearance of monumental Pachacamac, with a planned layout that has three walls and two long straight streets that run through the central part of the sanctuary is due, exclusively, to the feverish activity of the Inca administration. Apparently, Inca Pachacamac lacked the characteristics of a city with dense and extensive permanent residential occupation, and its layout was determined by the ceremonial function of the site's architecture. The last 11 excavation campaigns conducted at Pachacamac indicate that there have been no continuities, either in the architectural design or in the layout, throughout the five successive periods of human occupation that occurred at the site: the Middle Lima, the Late Lima (Maranga), the Initial Ychsma-Wari, the Middle Ychsma, and the Inca. Furthermore, each of the periods is characterized by different types of architecture and a particular distribution of the built space, compared to the others. From this, it can be inferred that it is the Inca administration that undertook the task of building a great ceremonial center with spaces destined to temporarily house the pilgrims, communication axes, and temples of imperial worship.

Abstract:
The Inca occupation in the Cañete valley (Lima, Peru) is characterized by imperial architecture presence in settlements with local architecture. These settlements were articulated by the Qhapaq Ñan (Inca Road network). However, there are few studies related to the socioeconomic impact of Inca dominance on coastal communities. This chapter aims to call attention to changes that occurred at the level of consumption practices with the arrival of Inca administration at El Huarco-Cerro Azul, a fishermen settlement on the south coast of Peru built on a rocky promontory. We focus on the food resources evidence through the analysis of macro-botanical and faunistic remains, especially mammals and bird bones.

Abstract:
Pre-Columbian sacred sites are complex phenomena that present a distinct challenge to rationalism. Accordingly, huaca and other Quechua concepts concerning the sacred not only provide alternative keys to the interpretation of Andean sites of Inca date, but may also be usefully applied to earlier sites that lie beyond the Andes proper. From 600 BC to 600 AD, architecture, human burials and artefact offerings all contributed to the making of a ceremonial complex associated with a natural landform and its spirit owner at Salango, on the central coast of Ecuador. Salango thus allows study both of the different means by which an ancient non-Andean huaca was constructed, and of its various functions. It also shows how the structure, substance and symbolism of individual huacas can provide direct evidence for localized ontologies that need to be understood on their own terms.

Abstract:
The Brazilian National Cancer Institute (INCA) estimates for each year of the 2020/2022 triennium 8,460 new cases of cancer in children and adolescents in the 1-19 age group. As the second cause of death in this age group in most regions of Brazil, childhood cancer is considered a serious public health problem. Fortunately, childhood cancer is a disease with a high probability of cure if diagnosed early and treated in specialized centers. Thus, early diagnosis is an important public health strategy for treatment and is directly related to patient survival. This paper presents APPonco, a mobile application for agile and safe access to information about childhood cancer for healthcare professionals (doctors, nurses, nutritionists, etc.) and the general public (patients, families and caregivers). APPonco was a demand from a reference center in the treatment of childhood cancer in Brazil. The paper details the requirements, architecture, and development process of the application. Since 2020, APPonco is available free for Android and iOS. The software is registered in the Brazilian National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI).
