It forms an architectural ensemble of large stone characterized by its monumental condition, with a large artificial platform, oriented from south to north, seated on the crest of calcareous rock on the top of Cerro Barreta (at 3000 meters above sea level). The platform extends for almost 600 meters and has a perimeter wall that in some points reaches 19 meters in height. It is estimated that its construction had to start towards the eleventh century, coinciding with the period of flowering of the Chachapoyas culture, and its occupation had to culminate towards halves of the sixteenth century.
