Johan Reinhard (Archaeologist): The Inca royal family would go there for different kinds of ceremonies,and we do know that the Incas had a very strong ritual element there. There are some who think that maybe it was just a retreat. They went there to have a nice, you know, retreat from all the hubbub of the capital city of Cuzco. But within a hundred years after the Inca began building this impressive city, they started to abandon it.
約翰萊因哈德(考古學家)認為:印加王室成員將前往那里進行各種不同的儀式,因為我們知道,在古代的印加,有一個非常強烈的宗教元素的存在。還有一些人認為,也許這里只是一個休養的靜所。他們去那里逃避所有的喧嘩,躲避戰亂。但在開始建設這個城市之后一百年,他們又放棄了這個令人印象深刻的印加城市。
