A previously unknown Inca settlement, Quriwayrachina, Quri Wayrachina, or Qoriwayrachina[1] (Quechua quri gold, wayrachina a special oven for smelting metal, "oven for smelting gold"),[2][3] was found in the Willkapampa mountain range in the Cusco Region of Peru in 2001.

[4] The site lies in the Santa Teresa District of the La Convención Province, north of the archaeological site of Choquequirao and west of the mountains Kiswar and Quriwayrachina (Corihuayrachina),[5] on a mountain named Victoria.

The British photographer and researcher Peter Frost discovered in 1999 a walking trail of the village.

They found an area of 6 square kilometres of agricultural terraces, grain storage, cemeteries, grave towers, more than 100 circular buildings, the stump of a pyramid and an 8 km long canal, which was used for irrigation.

Estimates place the origin of the outpost in the early 13th century, then abandoned, later to be resettled.
