Huaca Huallamarca submitted by MK38416 : There are similarities in both pyramids - this one and Huaca Pucllana that is located a few km away - construction technology and wall cladding with yellow material/mineral called Limonite (limonita in Spanish). It's almost gone. Originally all walls were yellow, like gold:)
