This is one of the most remarkable points, it is an underground chamber where there is a single stone from which tables, walls and floors were carved, all made of the same stone and smooth.
Finally, it was used to sacrifice people and animals and even embalm the corpses, that's not all, remains of ashes were also found, so it is believed that they were made into cults for ancestors.

Here you actually walk under the huge rock and come to this sacrificial altar. Here, however, Coca leaves were not discarded, as is often the case, but rather people were sacrificed. Very interesting.
