THE OPENING OF
THE ANDEAN AXIS MUNDI
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 25 years (2000-2025), 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.
Thanks to the research work of the Pi Rambla Heritage Foundation, an important underground network of galleries has been discovered in the city of Cusco, the Navel of the Andean World, the Center and Axis of a Sacred-Solar worldview
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.
The existence of the SACRED CHINKANA, built by the Incas and mentioned by chroniclers and researchers, has been detected thanks to the important advances in remote sensing with a state-of-the-art Georadar (Ground Penetrating Radar) and advanced 3D software systems. This new technology has allowed us to finally locate the tunnel of prodigious Inca manufacture, which has its exit in a precise location of the Convent of Santo Domingo (Koricancha) It is a pleasure to be able to offer you this discovery of great world importance that will open access to the large galleries existing in the subsoil of Cusco and reveal the mystery that this Navel of the World holds, the true Secret of the Andes of the Primordial Tradition.
MESSAGE FROM PI RAMBLA HERITAGE FOUNDATION:
THE CHINKANA OF CUSCO
We're not just investigating the past. We're opening portals to a deeper understanding of our history and origins. Pi Rambla Heritage Foundation is not just an archaeological entity. It's a bridge between science and ancestral knowledge. For more than 50 years, Anselm Pi Rambla has followed the traces of ancient cultures across the globe. And in Cusco, beneath the Koricancha, we found something that could redefine history. This video is more than a defense: It's a declaration. A call to those who feel there is much more to understand about our past.
