Various authors have argued the existence of astronomical orientations related to this site. The site consists of many building structures such as a square 175 m on a side, one ushnu 16m side and a pair of kallanka buildings in the public area and several other remains equally important. In turn, two terraced hills with imposing staircases rise on the east and west sides of the square.

Este trabajo expone una perspectiva arqueoastronómica del sitio  inca “El Shincal de Quimivil” ubicado al sur del Tawantinsuyu (Catamarca, Argentina). Diversos autores han sostenido la existencia de orientas astronómicas relacionadas con este asentamiento. Este lugar se compone de numerosas estructuras edilicias  como por ejemplo una plaza de 175 m de lado, un ushnu de 16 m de lado y un par de edificios kallanka dentro de la zona pública y varios otros vestigios de igual importancia. A su vez, se elevan sobre los laterales este y oeste de la plaza dos cerros aterrazados con imponentes escaleras. Sostenemos  que es importante trabajar lugares alejados del Cuzco, de los cuales aún no se conocen detalles de interrelaciones ideológicas y sus correlatos materiales, que nos podrían dar pistas sobre los mecanismos, estrategias de apropiación y control Inca.
