More Wari mausolea just down the road from the main Willkawain site. These buildings are similar in structure to Willkawain, but much smaller, with several situated around a "courtyard" of sorts.
There are three large buildings with multiple levels and several small buildings.
There is also evidence of a residence on the same site.
