Quebrada de Humahuaca, Argentina

The interaction between this geo-ecological system and the successive societies that have occupied it for the last 10,000 years shows an unparalleled space-time continuity. The stonewalled agricultural terrace fields at Coctaca are still in use today. The site was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2003.
