-THE BORACAY ISLAND LIFE-

Carved into the rocky shores of Lake Titicaca on the Bolivian side, these enigmatic stone formations near the site of Puma Punku are believed to date back over 1,000 years, linked to the Tiwanaku civilization that flourished from 500 to 1000 CE. Situated at nearly 3,800 meters above sea level, this high-altitude plateau cradles some of the most perplexing ancient architecture in the Andes.

The geometric precision of these cuts—right angles, straight grooves, and interlocking shapes—suggests highly advanced stoneworking techniques using tools far beyond what is typically associated with pre-Columbian cultures. The purpose of these massive and meticulously chiseled stones remains unclear: were they foundations, ceremonial platforms, or abandoned quarry work? Erosion patterns and unfinished cuts hint at both human ingenuity and nature’s gradual reclamation.

Standing by the lake, these cold, angular remnants seem like the skeleton of a forgotten intention—unfinished thoughts etched into the earth. Their symmetry speaks of intelligence; their stillness, of mystery. Between sky and water, they remind us how little we know of what once was carved with so much certainty.

It looks like a sacrificial altar

With plenty of seating

Yes, it looks like they would put on a 'good show' there for sure. Ritual sacrifice has been a big part of some of the ancient civilizations. I'm not sure if this is the case her though.
