| Sumario: | This paper proposes a new interpretation of the three sketches drawn by Don Juan de Santa Cruz Pachacuti from the archeological iconographic point of vue. The Sun’s temple drawning of Coricancha is not a christianization of myths and gods of the Incas put on a barrocco altar, but a condensé of the foster powers of the ancestral Mountains; the sketch is also, as it had been said by many academics, a sun calendar which begins at the winter solstice of december. Actually, Santa Cruz Pachacuti recreated a pre-hispanic image of its own. |
