In this article, we present an evaluation of the Paxamarca settlement during the Inca hegemony, by analyzing typical buildings of the Tahuantinsuyo, in which kallankas, kanchas, and other structures that formed part of the so-called architecture of power and were located among local style buildings stand out. We also suggest the possible importance of the complex in controlling and organizing a wide territory during the Late Horizon.
