Moray Terraces

The archaeological site of the Moray Terraces is located in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, Peru. These mysterious concentric circular terraces (andinas) were used for agriculture. Some scholars believe that they may have been used as a Inca agricultural research center - the higher terraces would be at a higher temperature than the inner ones and could simulate the conditions of various ecological strata.
