The QOSQO PROJECT is a pioneering initiative to the research and archaeological excavation in the city of Cusco with the objective of accessing the large underground Incan and pre-Incan structures beneath the city and within the Saqsaywaman archaeological complex.

The studies and research conducted over the past 24 years (2000-2024), along with the archaeological excavations carried out between the years 2000 and 2003 at the Temple of the Sun of the Incas (Koricancha), current Convent of Santo Domingo, and in the Solar Citadel of Saqsaywaman, specifically in the sectors of the Baluartes, Rodadero-Suchuna, and Collaconcho (Piedra Cansada), have provided us with valuable evidence supporting the existence of important underground structures in this Andean UKHU PACHA (inner world of the Andes).

This includes the precise identification of the great «Chinkana» (tunnel) that connects Koricancha with Saqsaywaman, approximately 1.2 kilometers long, traversing the entire city of Cusco and ending in the extensive underground labyrinths of Saqsaywaman.

The goal of all these works is the opening of this Andean AXIS MUNDI, the recovery of the sacred gold and silver pieces of the Incas stored in these labyrinths, and the revelation of the mysteries held within this Navel of the World, the most significant heritage of the Children of the Sun.

The Decentralized Directorate of the Ministry of Culture of Cusco (DDC) and the Pi Rambla Heritage Foundation has signed an Agreement for the start of research and excavation works within the QOSQO PROJECT.

The director of the cultural entity, Dr. Régulo Gilberto Franco Jordán, emphasized that archaeological scientific research is of utmost importance for strengthening cultural identity and the development of Cusco's society. Therefore, this administration will prioritize such agreements, like the one signed with the Pi Rambla Heritage Foundation, among others.
